When Wei Guangling heard this, he felt even more doubtful.

Stay in Pine City? What did Fang Heng want to do there?

The situation in Pine City was so bad. If he stayed there, wouldn’t he be asking for trouble?

Wei Guangling turned his head again and looked at Chen Yu.

“Chen Yu, based on your understanding of Fang Heng, what do you think his purpose of staying in Pine City is?”

“Well…”

Chen Yu subconsciously raised his hand, wanting to scratch his head, but he felt that it was a little unsightly in front of the leaders, so he forcefully put it down.

He decided to tell the truth.

“Leader, I think he might want to farm monsters…”

Farm monsters?

Wei Guangling and Zhang Yuekun looked at each other at the same time.

What on earth was farming monsters?

This word was often heard in the internet games in the past.

It was rather retro.

“Yeah, it’s just leveling up in there. There are a lot of Tier 2 mutated creatures in Pine City, which are very valuable to kill. | think Fang Heng’s character level is close to Level 10.”

“He probably wants to take this opportunity to kill more high-level zombies, so as to break through Level 10.”

Chen Yu had a deep impression of Fang Heng.

From the zombie pit in Hope Town.

And then there was the ‘tower defense’ that was built in the shelter.

tt was too flashy.

The few incidents that he had participated in with Fang Heng had changed Chen Yu’s understanding of this game.

He felt that Fang Heng was just itching to play, and was planning to stay in Pine City to do some stuff.

Level up while he was at it.

Thinking about it carefully, Fang Heng’s choice to stay in Pine City was not much different from the last time he chose to stay in Hope Town.

it was just that the enemy was a little stronger…

At first, he would farm ordinary zombies and Tier 1 mutated zombies, then he would go back to the shelter to farm Lickers. What was wrong with farming Tier 2 mutated creatures now?

This was very consistent with Fang Heng’s style of doing things.

Chen Yu felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

Wei Guangling and Zhang Yuekun were deep in thought.

Hint: You have completed the mission-desperate survivor.]

Hint: Please go to any branch of the Dark Knights to receive the reward.]

Climbing out of the sewer, Fang Heng received the latest game hint.

tt seemed that Lucia had safely evacuated from Pine City.

“That boor…”

Fang Heng was slightly relieved when Lucia’s face appeared in his mind.

The main storyline mission was finally saved!

ext, he could relax and play the official game.

While passing through the city’s sewer, a rough outline of a plan had been built in Fang Heng’s mind.

There were three steps.

The first step was to strengthen the hospital and ensure Victor’s safety.

The second step was to get Victor to help create another badge to block the pursuit of the nemesis. This way, he could farm the mutated spiders inside the Meteorite Company.

The third step was to find a way to completely eliminate the nemesis!

“Fang Heng, you’re back.”

Outside the hospital building, Victor was wearing the exoskeleton armour to stand guard.

“I saw a lot of helicopters leaving Pine City earlier. Have the Dark Knights evacuated?”

Victor sighed in his heart.

He felt that he owed Fang Heng too much this time.

“I’m sorry, Fang Heng. I’ve implicated you this time and caused you to stay in this dangerous place. I was suspicious of you before…”

“Since you’re ready to join my shelter, of course I have to protect your safety.”

“But Victor, don’t be so depressed. Be happy. After this, it’s our turn to counterattack.”

(Hint: You’ve chosen to stay in Pine City. Your friendship with Victor has greatly increased.]

Fang Heng glanced at the game log and narrowed his eyes.

Actually, he was still a little unhappy.

From the moment he entered Pine City, he had been assigned various main storyline missions.

He had been chased all the way.

Until now, he had finally figured out the background of Pine City.

“Next, I’ll see if I can clear this place!”

Fang Heng thought to himself.

“Counterattack?”

When Victor heard this, he looked at Fang Heng in surprise.

What did he mean by counterattack?

Victor felt that Fang Heng was becoming more and more unpredictable.

“Ha.

Fang Heng suddenly felt very sleepy after his ambitious speech.

He yawned.

He had been highly focused for a period of time and had not slept much last night. Fang Heng was very tired now.

“Let’s talk about the details later. I’m going back to catch up on my sleep.”

Fang Heng was about to walk upstairs when he suddenly thought of something and slapped his forehead.

“Oh right, Victor, there’s something else I need your help with. It’s quite urgent…”

“Yeah, just said it. As long as it’s within my means, | can do it.”

Fang Heng looked Victor up and down from head to toe.

“Victor, has anyone ever told you that your appearance is very good? Have you ever considered entering the entertainment industry?”

Victor: ???

Hint: Your skills-dodge and block have been upgraded to the current maximum level, Level 13. Please upgrade your player’s level.]

More than five hours later.

Fang Heng’s dodging and blocking skills had reached the maximum level.

Tyrant’s fusion form was still locked in a stalemate with the nemesis.

Helpless, Fang Heng gave the order to Tyrant to head to the nearby hospital.

Victor had set up a special magnetic field around the hospital so that the nemesis would not get close.

By then, Tyrant’s fusion form would most likely be able to shake off the nemesis.

The next step was to go offline and hack in, waiting for Tyrant’s proliferator to appear!

After arranging Tyrant’s and the zombie team’s hack routes, Fang Heng found a safe place in the hospital and went offline.

After opening the game cabin, the phone in the room was still ringing.

Fang Heng picked up the phone.

Chen Yu was still in the temporary command center of the Federation.

He was holding a photo of Xiao Jing’s notebook in the game.

He was speechless.

What the hell was written on the notebook?!

This year’s intern was way too weak!

Hearing Fang Heng pick up the phone, Chen Yu immediately picked it up.

“Fang Heng, you are staying in Pine City to farm monsters, right?”

Fang Heng was shocked.

Oh my god! Chen Yu guessed it?

“I guessed it right! Pine City has a lot of enhanced Tier 1 and Tier 2 zombies. You should be about to reach the threshold of Level 10, right? You lack a complete evolution crystal, right?”

Chen Yu was secretly pleased with his occasional flash of inspiration.

He felt that he was the person in the Federation who understood Fang Heng the most.

Fang Heng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that.

“Sorry, you guessed wrong!”

He was prepared to farm a Tier 3 mutated spider this time.

Chen Yu scratched his head again when he heard Fang Heng’s delay in answering.

“Uh, I’m sorry, Fang Heng. I didn’t mean to get information from you. The person who came to look for you this time is actually my superiors. He wants to meet with you if you’re free.”

“Huh? Your superiors?”

Fang Heng’s mind raced.

It seemed that the operation in Pine City had attracted the attention of the Federation.

Meet or not?

After thinking about it, Fang Heng felt that this matter could not be avoided.

It would be even more troublesome if he was investigated by the Federation in secret.

Anyway, he had not done anything bad.

He was not afraid!

“Alright, come to my work studio in two days. We’ll meet again at the specific time.”

Fang Heng readily agreed. Then he asked, “By the way, have your people left Pine City? Has the next mission been triggered?”.
