Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 3264: Suppression

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Chi, chi chi chi..."

While the crowd was talking, Abe Akaya’s vine slowly emerged from the fusion space passage, approaching them step by step, and quickly completed a mental strength link with Fang Heng.

With Abe Akaya’s arrival at the battlefield, Fang Heng immediately felt much more at ease.

However, Abe Akaya was also unaccustomed to the environment of the undead world, its spreading speed was noticeably slower compared to other domains.

Georgi nodded and said, "Fang Heng, the Undead Council’s top combat strength has already gathered, we can act at any time."

Standing beside Georgi were all prominent figures of the Undead Council.

Without exception, all were teacher-level existences who had stepped into grandmaster-level necromancy for at least a hundred years.

There were more than thirty in total, and the remaining five were the new generation of the council. They had come this time to gain experience and lend a hand, but they would not participate in battle.

Even so, it still took the teachers quite some time on their first entry into the Netherworld to adapt to its aura gradually. Only under the concealment of the undead barrier could they move freely.

Looking into the distance, the zombies and bones had already formed two distinct lines. The licker horde was intercepting the attacks of Netherworld creatures with their lives, and their numbers were slowly being consumed.

Meanwhile, the undead beings seemed to possess endless vitality, being reborn again and again after each death.

"Thank you, teachers."

Fang Heng cupped his hands toward the group of teachers and said, "I must ask for your aid once more."

"No need for courtesy, Fang Heng. Our Undead Council has no such rigid rules. Whatever you need us to do, say it."

During the more than seven hours of waiting, Fang Heng had already devised his battle strategy. He raised his hand and pointed toward the skeletal creatures controlled by evil spirits that were fighting the lickers in the distance, then nodded and said, "I need the teachers to help me temporarily suppress their souls."

Through the alchemy magic array, it was possible to temporarily suppress the bones of the skeletal creatures, but the evil spirits truly controlling the bones could not be restrained.

The teachers looked at Fang Heng, somewhat puzzled for a moment.

Suppress the soul?

What was the necessity?

One teacher frowned and said, "Fang Heng, the Dark Clan creatures’ soul strength is extremely high. Even if we cannot suppress them for long, their numbers are too great. Solely relying on soul suppression methods might not have much effect."

"It’s fine, I have a plan. Teachers, you need not force yourselves to consume too much. You may gather several people’s strength to suppress a single evil spirit skeleton at the same time, and we can take them down one by one."

"Alright."

With Fang Heng’s words, the teachers understood. Without hesitation, they stepped closer toward the battlefield, exchanging glances with each other.

"Let us try first."

Three teachers who were usually on good terms nodded to one another, selected one undead skeleton, and then simultaneously condensed imprints with their hands in front of them.

Soul suppression!

Soul power was an important cultivation course for necromancy scholars. The teachers of necromancy had all forged their soul strength through countless trials.

Immediately, an invisible force of soul power fell upon one evil spirit skeleton.

The evil spirit, being suppressed, struggled madly. At the same time, the bones it controlled ceased their offensive, standing stupidly in place.

The Undead Council teachers frowned tightly.

The strength of the Netherworld evil spirit was even greater than they had anticipated!

"Teachers, please continue to hold it!"

Seeing this, Fang Heng called out, then immediately condensed an imprint with both hands, locking his gaze firmly onto the evil spirit skeleton under suppression.

Bone Control Technique-Soul Brand!

A progress bar gradually appeared above Fang Heng’s head, and a game hint followed.

[Hint: The player casts skill-Bone Control Technique*Soul Brand.]

[Hint: The player is performing soul branding...]

[Hint: Current soul branding success rate: 6%.]

Good!

There was a chance!

Bone Branding Technique!

A skill he had learned long ago during his novice period.

It was only effective on undead skeletal creatures.

Clearly, evil spirit skeletons were also undead skeletal creatures!

It would work just the same!

Fang Heng’s eyes lit up.

The suppressed evil spirit skeleton struggled even more frantically, as a special spirit talisman symbol was slowly branded upon its forehead.

Bang!

The symbol had just condensed into a rough outline when it suddenly exploded!

[Hint: The player’s skill-Bone Control Technique*Soul Brand failed.]

Failed?

The corner of Fang Heng’s mouth curved upward.

No matter!

After all, this skill could be inherited by his zombie clones!

Almost at the same moment, the hundreds of thousands of ordinary zombie clones gathered behind Fang Heng all condensed an imprint in front of them, simultaneously targeting the evil spirit skeleton suppressed by the undead teachers.

Countless zombie clones sprouted progress bars over their bodies.

Instantly, Fang Heng’s retina was flooded with game hints.

[Hint: Your zombie clone is performing soul branding on the evil spirit skeleton. Current success rate: 0.0001%.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone...]

There was a success rate!

That was enough!

He would stack it with sheer overwhelming numbers!

Moreover, with his necromancy skill already raised to Super-God level, and his deeper understanding of mysticism and occult knowledge, Fang Heng’s casting speed had greatly increased.

A single zombie clone needed only 8.9 seconds to complete one channeling!

Even if it was only 0.0001%... so what?

Multiply that number by one hundred thousand, and the theoretical success rate instantly became 10%!

Fang Heng’s eyes gleamed with excitement.

The main issue was that his spirit was currently under extreme suppression, leaving him unable to control the evil spirit skeleton. That was why he needed the undead teachers’ assistance in suppressing it.

The undead teachers quickly realized what Fang Heng was attempting, and astonishment flashed across their eyes.

Bone Control Technique!

Not considered a particularly high-tier spell, but in theory, it could indeed control high-level undead skeletons...

But still...

Control this thing?

Very soon, in less than a minute, the soul flame flickering in the eyes of the suppressed evil spirit skeleton suddenly changed color.

Whoosh!

A line of game hints floated across Fang Heng’s retina.

[Hint: Your zombie clone skill succeeded. You completed the soul branding of the evil spirit skeleton.]

It worked!

Within his sea of consciousness, a light spot immediately appeared, representing the completed spiritual construct with the evil spirit skeleton.

The three undead teachers suppressing the evil spirit skeleton immediately sensed the anomalous soul fluctuations from it, and their expressions shifted slightly.

D*mn!

It really worked?

Thinking this, the undead teachers instinctively relaxed their suppression on the evil spirit skeleton’s soul.

The other teachers also grew distracted, casting glances toward the controlled evil spirit skeleton, their eyes carrying faint expectation.

With the naked eye, it was clear, the strength of Netherworld creatures was far greater compared to those of the outside world. Could they truly use skeleton summoning techniques to control them?
