1599 Planning
“Mr. Fang Heng, I’m Xu Xun. I’m currently on a secret mission for the Federation. These two are my friends, Milani and Imre. Their identities are sensitive, and it might cause unnecessary trouble if they were leaked.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Xu Xun gave Kou Ming a look, and the latter immediately understood. He led a group of people behind him to receive the boxes that Fang Heng had transported out of Frost Hell.
“We’ve all accepted the talent advancement mission from Teacher Gu Luo. Killing the higher-ups of the Holy Court is extraordinary. Even if it’s just a plot, it will cause a lot of trouble if the news gets out. For safety reasons, this cooperation is limited to the four of us. These two are my friends, and I can guarantee that they will never leak any information to the outside world.”
Xu Xun said as he gestured to the two necromancy attendants beside him.
A short old man and a young woman.
“Alright, I promise I won’t leak any information about them to the public.”
Fang Heng agreed readily.
If he wanted to complete the mission perfectly, he couldn’t do it alone.
He needed help.
For example, this time, he was trapped in the Frost Hell. If Xu Xun did not help him, it would be difficult for him to resist the ice storm outside and escape from the Frost Hell
He did not mind cooperating with him.
Fang Heng asked again, “Is there any progress on the spellcasting materials I asked you to prepare?”
“Yes, we’re already preparing. We’re still short of a small portion. They will be ready by tonight.”
“Fang Heng, aren’t you going to tell us about your plan?”
Imre, the old man standing on the right, suddenly interrupted. His tone was calm to the extreme, without any hint of anger.
“Whether it’s opening the secret passage to the Frost Hell or finding the materials you want, all of these require time and effort. We don’t mind doing a little more, but as a partner, I want to know information related to the mission to ensure that the mission is feasible.”
Xu Xun had studied Fang Heng’s past, and with the recommendation of his subordinates, he had some trust in Fang Heng.
However, the remaining two still had some doubts about Fang Heng. After all, Fang Heng was too young.
“Hmm.”
Fang Heng nodded slightly and said, “Simply put, Viona is in my hands.”
Hearing this, the expressions of the three people present changed.
Fang Heng had actually found the Holy Court’s Saintess?!
They had expected Fang Heng to have some idea of how to complete the mission, so they agreed to come and participate in this alliance.
However, they never expected Fang Heng to have already gone to this step!
Although the discussion on the official forums about the disappearance of the Saintess was not intense, in actuality, this incident had already spread throughout the advanced gaming circle. Countless eyes were focused on the disappearance of the Holy Court’s Saintess.
All forces were looking for Viona.
They had never expected that Viona was actually in Fang Heng’s hands.
Milani asked subconsciously, “Where is she?”
As soon as she asked the question, she immediately regretted it.
This question was a bit out of line.
Fang Heng did not mind. He replied, “She’s not here now. She’s in the Otherworld. It’s very safe.”
Xu Xun and the other two looked at each other and became nervous.
An unawakened Saintess!
Even in the holy realm, these players were ranked among the top.
Completing the mission was definitely possible.
Moreover, once the mission was completed, it would definitely be considered a cross-level completion, and they would be able to obtain a mission reward of a higher level!
They really saw a shimmer of hope of completing the mission!
The old man asked in a deep voice, “What’s your plan? Should we follow you to the Otherworld?”
Xu Xun also added, “Fang Heng, we need to be very careful in our preparations to kill Viona. The Saintess might have left a mark on her body. If we encounter any danger, we will be discovered by the Holy Court. If we are not careful, our situation will become very bad.”
“Yes, I know. That’s why I want to get rid of Viona at the source of the shady line. The aura in that place is extremely chaotic, and it’s difficult for the Holy Court to sense it. Even if they want to investigate it later, it’ll be very difficult.”
Fang Heng briefly introduced the situation of the source of the shady line, then paused and said thoughtfully, “I’m still planning how to do it. Viona is extremely powerful. In order to prevent any accidents during the killing process, I still need your help, especially in terms of supplies. I can’t handle it alone.”
“Yes, we will do our best.”
Xu Xun and the other two nodded.
The three of them were discussing carefully, trying to make up for the flaws in Fang Heng’s plan when they heard an exclamation from the other side.
“Mr. Fang Heng! This, this…?”
Kou Ming looked over in disbelief.
He had just brought his men to receive the supplies from the boxes on the Lickers’ backs. After opening the metal boxes, he was dumbfounded.
Two boxes, filled to the brim!
Each box was filled with the highest tier of soul ice crystals and expensive ice soul crystals!
Kou Ming and his subordinates looked at Fang Heng with surprise.
That was the highest tier of soul ice crystal!
Only creatures that lived in the Frost Hell and had reached the mutated or leader level would drop it!
So what was Fang Heng doing in Frost Hell all this while?
Killing Bosses day and night?
Previously, they had worked day and night with Fang Heng on Frost Hell’s Open Day. Together with the Rand Chamber of Commerce, they had brought out nearly a hundred boxes of low-grade and intermediate soul ice crystals from Frost Hell. At that time, it had even caused quite a stir!
However, the total value of these soul ice crystals was not as high as a handful of high-tier soul ice crystals that he could casually grab from the box.
Xu Xun and the other two also saw the highest tier ice crystals in the metal box from afar, and their eyes flashed with surprise.
So many high-tier soul ice crystals.
How did he do it?
Even if the three of them joined hands, they would not be able to get so many!
When Milani came, she had some doubts about Fang Heng’s ability. Now, her doubts had been reduced by more than half.
“I got lucky and used some tricks.”
Fang Heng explained casually and waved his hand at Kou Ming, signaling him to continue working. Then, he nodded at Xu Xun and said, “I need to immediately go and find the City Lord of Frost Fortress to complete a mission. At the same time, I need to figure out the secret of the source of the shady line. I think I might need it to deal with Viona.”
Milani nodded and said, “Alright, I know a little about the Frost Hell mission, and I have some friendship with the City Lord. I’ll go with you.”
“Thank you.”
Imre said, “I know of a special magic array ritual that can suppress the power of the Holy God. It can prevent accidents from happening when killing Viona. However, I need some time to prepare.”
“Can you make it by tomorrow?”
Tomorrow?
So fast?!
When everyone heard this, they were instantly stunned.
Imre thought for a moment and nodded.
Xu Xun glanced at Fang Heng and said, “Then let’s split up. Fang Heng, I’ll keep an eye on the materials you need. Once it’s done, I’ll get someone to transport them over.”
“Alright, sorry to trouble you.”
The four of them had a simple discussion before splitting up.
