Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game Chapter 1600 – 1600 The Past

1600 The Past
Frost Fortress.

A fortress built along the outline of a mountain range.

A few soldiers of Frost Fortress in green armor led the way.

“The master of Frost Fortress, Hornlow, is a serious elder. I received a few long-term missions related to him in the past, and after successfully completing them, my friendship with him increased to a tier. I was able to meet him after that.”

Milani gave Fang Heng a general introduction to the situation in Frost Fortress.

Behind the two of them, several undead elite Bones summoned by Fang Heng dragged a packed iron box along.

Under the lead of the soldiers of Frost Fortress, Fang Heng and Milani entered the hall.

The steward of the fortress had received the news in advance and rushed over.

“Madam Milani, Master is resting in the study now. You know that he prefers to be alone in the afternoon. If it’s not an urgent matter, it’s best not to disturb him.”

Milani looked at Fang Heng beside her.

Fang Heng took half a step forward and introduced himself, “I’m Fang Heng. I found something in Frost Hell. I heard rumors that City Lord Hornlow is looking for it.”

“If you’re referring to the exchange materials found in the Frost Hell, then just give them to me.”

The steward noticed the few boxes behind Fang Heng and waved his hand.

A few soldiers of the Frost Fortress walked forward and took the box from the undead Bones.

The box was rather heavy and was tied tightly with rope.

After spending some effort to open the box, these soldiers were visibly shaken immediately and they let out soft cries of surprise.

“High-tier ice crystal!”

Such a crystal clear soul ice crystal that flickered with a frosty luster.

It was definitely a supreme-grade soul ice crystal!

And it was filled to the brim!

Were they all taken out from Frost Hell?

When the steward saw this scene, he also revealed a surprised expression and looked at Fang Heng.

Was this the person trapped in Frost Fortress?

There was actually someone who was unaffected by the berserk aura of the Frost Hell during its sealed period, and he could even obtain so many high-tier crystals?

How did he do it?!

If so many crystals were to spread to the outside world, it would definitely cause a frenzy in the outside world.

The steward’s attitude immediately improved and he nodded at Fang Heng.

“Please rest here for a while. After the crystals are counted, the City Lord will personally meet you.”

As he spoke, the steward gestured for the soldiers to start counting. At the same time, the soldiers opened another box.

When they opened the box and saw the frozen corpse lying inside, everyone was stunned.

That was…

Corpse?

What the hell was this corpse? What was he trying to do by bringing it here?

The soldiers were confused.

The steward stared at the corpse.

After confirming the golden ring on the skeleton’s hand, the steward’s eyes turned from doubt to surprise, and finally disbelief.

He turned back to Fang Heng and confirmed with him, “Have you been to the source of the shady line?”

“Yes.”

Fang Heng nodded lightly.

Someone had actually been to that place!

Moreover, he even brought out the remains of the City Lord’s ancestor!?

The steward was extremely shocked. He changed his previous attitude and bowed respectfully to Fang Heng, “Please follow me, Mr. Fang Heng. I’ll bring you to see the City Lord immediately.”

Seeing this, Milani couldn’t help but sigh.

She was also shocked when she saw the corpse just now.

She had thought that the boxes were filled with the highest level of soul ice crystals. She did not expect Fang Heng to even get his hands on the corpse of the City Lord’s ancestor.

No wonder the steward’s attitude changed so much.

In fact, he was already in good friendship with the City Lord. The steward’s attitude towards her was respectful on the surface, but there was still a hint of arrogance hidden.

Fang Heng and Milani followed the steward to the third floor.

The steward stepped into the study room to report and then retreated. He respectfully nodded to the two of them.

“The City Lord is already waiting for the two of you. Please.”

Fang Heng walked into the room first.

The City Lord, Hornlow, was already several hundred years old. He was dressed in blue armor and sat in front of his desk. He kept playing with the golden ring he had just taken from the remains, his eyes filled with memories.

“The remains of our ancestor in the Frost Hell have always been a sore spot for my father. I owe you a favor for bringing it back.”

Lord Hornlow placed the gold ring back on the table and gestured for Fang Heng and Milani to sit down.

“Please take a seat. Can you tell me in detail where you found the remains? What else did you find?”

Fang Heng briefly recounted what happened in the Frost Hell.

When Hornlow heard about the center of the shady line and the great holy sword, his expression changed.
Fang Heng looked at Hornlow, who was deep in thought, and asked, “City Lord, do you know what the source of the shady line is? Is it a teleportation portal to another world?”

“Yes, your guess is the same as ours.”

Hornlow nodded and explained, “The source of the shady line is probably a passage to the Otherworld. A long time ago, the Holy Court discovered this world before us. After they discovered the passage, they realized the threat of the passage, so they wanted to completely cut it off.”

“The necromancers came to this world after that. The aura leaked from the source of the shady line is very useful for the study of necromancy.”

“The necromancy seniors discovered the Holy Court’s scheme. In order to stop them from cutting off the passage, they paid a huge price. My ancestor was one of them. For this, he did not hesitate to give up his life.”

Milani also knew about the rumors about the shady line. She added, “Fortunately, we succeeded.”

Hornlow glanced at Milani and shook his head. He said, “No, on the contrary, we failed.”

What did he mean?

Milani and Fang Heng were stunned.

“The Holy Court arrived at the depths of the shady line before us and began to seal and destroy the source of the shady line. The necromancers wanted to stop them from destroying it, so they started a fierce battle in the underground primitive maze. From the injured people who were transferred out, I learned that they failed and many people died. My ancestor was among them.”

Hornlow paused and continued, “However, the people from the Holy Court didn’t succeed either.”

“An explosion occurred in the karst cave as the underground primeval maze collapsed. At that time, everything was annihilated in the depths of the shady line.”

“After the explosion, the shady line aura completely erupted, and the undead creatures that originally lived nearby also underwent a special mutation.”

“It’s like the Ice Bones and frozen vengeful spirits that you saw in the Frost Hell, as well as the shady line aura that spread in the Frost Hell.”

Fang Heng frowned as he listened to Hornlow’s story.

Combined with the crack he saw at the source of the shady line and the great holy sword, a thought came to his mind.

Could it be that the people of the Holy Court originally wanted to use the great holy sword to completely destroy the passageway?

They did not expect that they had underestimated the strength of the passageway.

The sword slashed down, but the passage was not destroyed. Instead, a crack appeared.

A large amount of the shady line aura leaked out from the crack, and even the team from the Holy Court was affected and wiped out.
