Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game Chapter 2264 – Taking Care of Him

Chapter 2264 Taking Care of Him
The sapling of the sacred tree was safely returned, and Fang Heng contributed a lot along the way. With Ovi speaking on his behalf, Senzo’s hostility towards Fang Heng relaxed somewhat.

“Really? Tell me more. What exactly did you need him to do?”

“Fang Heng and I had some interactions in the temple, and I found out he’s quite adept at magic arrays. With his help, we might be able to enhance the efficiency of the relevant magic arrays…”

“Are these things Fang Heng told you? Don’t be too quick to trust outsiders, Ovi,” Vannes couldn’t help interjecting. “Remember, he’s just a human.”

Ovi argued, “Elder Vannes, Fang Heng is an honored member of the Human Alchemy Magic Association. I’ve personally confirmed that he’s very knowledgeable about magic arrays and capable of modifying them…”

Senzo waved his hand, interrupting their debate. “Enough. We do need manpower at the moment. Let Fang Heng stay temporarily to help you construct the magic array. Tell Fang Heng, once we complete the nurturing of the sacred tree sapling, we will fulfill our promise regarding his advancement in natural science.”

Ovi bowed, “Yes! Thank you, Elder, for your understanding!”

“Off you go. You’re responsible for taking care of the damaged sacred tree sapling. From now on, Elder Vannes will be your direct supervisor. Report all situations to Elder Vannes. Understand?”

“Yes.”

Ovi respectfully saluted and nodded at Elder Vannes before leaving the hall.

Elder Vannes frowned, his dissatisfaction evident as he glanced in the direction Ovi had left. “Great Elder, since when do we need a human’s help?”

“Don’t be hasty. I’ve read the letter left by Elder Farouk before his death. Fang Heng indeed has profound knowledge of magic arrays. Without his prior assistance, we might not have been able to save the sacred tree sapling this time. With Elder Farouk’s unexpected demise, Elder Yuri is the only one left in the tribe familiar with magic arrays. Relying solely on him wouldn’t suffice.”

Senzo chose to involve Fang Heng in the care of the sacred tree sapling out of necessity. He looked at Vannes and said, “I had some suspicions about Fang Heng, so I’m entrusting Ovi with the task of looking after the sapling.”

Vannes appeared hesitant, seeming to consider refusing. He could easily engage in physical combat, but delving into magic arrays and sapling cultivation was too risky.

“You just need to keep an eye on that human,” Senzo waved his hand. “Alright, it’s settled then. With this matter concluded, prepare yourself. We still need to meet with the three major clans.”

“Understood.”

…

After Ovi left the hall, he immediately went to look for Fang Heng.

[Hint: The player has completed the mission-Ovi’s request.]

[Hint: The player gains 70 friendship points with Ovi, 20 friendship points with the Leaf tribe, contributes 500,000 points to the Leaf tribe, and gains 100,000 reputation points with both the Leaf tribe and the tree spirit clan. The player gains eligibility to join the Leaf tribe faction.]

Receiving the completion hint for the mission, Fang Heng breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, there were no further complications.

As for whether to join the Leaf Tribe faction, he needed to consider it further.

Just as he was contemplating, another game prompt appeared.

[Hint: The player has received the mission reward. The player can choose the Leaf tribe faction. If you join the camp, the friendliness of the tree spirit NPCs will change.]

[Hint: After joining the Leaf tribe faction, the player can receive some unlocked Leaf tribe special missions.]

“Ugh…”

Well, since obtaining the World Lord position wasn’t his top priority at the moment, joining or not joining the faction didn’t make much difference.

He wasn’t particularly interested in the Leaf tribe’s special missions either.

After some thought, Fang Heng decided to postpone joining for now.

[Hint: The player can join the Leaf tribe faction later by finding Ovi.]

“Fang Heng, thank you for your help this time. Without you, we wouldn’t have been able to safely escort the sacred tree sapling back.”

“You’re welcome,” Fang Heng responded cautiously. “Although we succeeded in protecting the sapling and returning it to headquarters this time, I doubt the Leaf tribe will just let it go. Does the Great Elder have any plans for the future?”

“There might be,” Ovi said, a tinge of sorrow evident on his face as he nodded. “With Elder Farouk’s sacrifice and few young members in the tribe who understand the sacred tree sapling, the Great Elder just assigned me to assist in the daily operation of one of the sapling’s bodies.”

Fang Heng’s interest was piqued.

The sacred tree sapling!

“Fang Heng, you mentioned before that you wanted to make some modifications to the dimensional energy magic array, right?”

“Yes, indeed,” Fang Heng nodded earnestly.

Initially, he was quite shocked when he saw the tree spirit tribe harnessing energy from the dimensional world. However, it was apparent that the magic arrays constructed by the tree spirit tribe were too crude and inefficient.

There was still a lot of room for improvement.

After studying detailed information about the magic arrays and even delving into spiritual curses and prayers, Fang Heng’s understanding of magic arrays improved significantly.

“Fang Heng, I need your help. I’ve already applied to Great Elder Senzo for you to join in the care of the sapling, and he agreed. We’ll be solely responsible for nurturing one of the sapling’s bodies, and we can try to modify the magic array.”

“Really?”

Fang Heng’s pupils contracted at the words.

Why did the tree spirit tribe suddenly trust him so much?

It was a bit unsettling for him at the moment.

“Yes, it’s true,” Ovi said, feeling the pressure.

After all, his qualifications were still relatively shallow.

Safely returning the sapling to the tribe this time was a significant achievement, and the tribe needed people who were skilled in magic arrays and capable of caring for the sacred tree sapling. This opportunity was given to him as a recognition of his contribution.

If he could achieve some results, perhaps he could use this opportunity to rise to the position of an elder!

“Let’s go, we can talk along the way.”

Ovi led Fang Heng forward, introducing as they walked, “Previously, the sacred tree sapling was managed jointly by Elder Yuri and Elder Farouk, the two honorary elders. As I mentioned before, the sapling consists of a main body and three clones. Most of the time, Elder Yuri personally nurtured the main body, while Elder Farouk looked after the three clones.”

“Got it.”

Fang Heng nodded gently, following Ovi into the depths of the base.

“Now, with Elder Farouk’s sacrifice, Elder Yuri alone cannot manage the sapling effectively. The Great Elder has selected a few younger members from the tribe to assist Elder Yuri. We will help take care of one of the sapling’s clones.”

“In addition, the two of us are currently under the supervision of Elder Vannes. Elder Vannes reports to Elder Yuri.”

“Okay.”

Fang Heng furrowed his brows slightly.

Hearing Elder Vannes’ name made him instinctively uncomfortable.

So, if he understood correctly, Elder Vannes was like a middle manager in a company, Elder Farouk was the CEO, and Senzo was the big boss.

As for him and Ovi, they were just the lowest-level team leaders.
