Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game-Chapter 2815 - : The Ship

Chapter 2815: The Ship

[Hint: The player has entered a special game world. Current world sequence level: High-tier.]

[Hint: The player’s Seed of Ouroboros level is Level 2. The player is immune to the world’s negative effects.]

[Hint: In this environment, the player cannot use teleportation passages, scrolls, or skills.]

Fang Heng slowly opened his eyes.

This place…

A ship’s cabin?

He found himself inside a large metallic ship’s cabin, surrounded by numerous armed guards.

Soon, Zaka and the others materialized beside him, entering the game world one after another.

“Welcome aboard the Star Map.”

The crowd looked toward the source of the voice, gazing at the elderly man with a white beard.

The man appeared to be in his seventies but looked remarkably spirited.

“I am Captain Zoran.”

Zoran nodded at the group and said, “This is your first time here. The mission commission will be provided to you in five minutes. You can prepare now; we will start soon. Also, all combat materials here are free to use. However, some explosive materials with limited supply will need to be purchased with credits.”

“Since we are currently under continuous attack by external mutant worms, our ship’s cabin opens every two hours. If you need to replenish supplies or return to rest, it’s best to plan and get back to the bottom of the ship before the teleportation passage opens.”

Zaka stood there, confused, scratching his head.

A ship? Mutant worms? Supplies?

Good grief, they had just arrived in this strange place and knew nothing about what was going on. How had they suddenly been pushed into a battlefield?

Outsourced or not, this wasn’t how things were supposed to go!

Zoran frowned, noticing that the mercenaries seemed a bit slow-witted, standing there without reacting.

“What are you still standing there for? The weapons to fight the mutant worms are over there. Are you planning to go barehanded against those creatures?”

“Uh… sorry, Captain…”

Zaka pondered for a moment and asked, “Can you introduce the current situation to us first?”

“What? You don’t know what’s going on here?” Zoran grumbled, shaking his head in frustration. “D*mn it, how did Watson manage to send a bunch of complete rookies to me without any training…”

Zoran muttered a few words, shook his head, and helplessly said, “Alright, let me give you a brief description. Currently, our Western District Federation has reached a cooperation agreement with a high-tier special species in the game. We will assist them in dealing with a species called ‘mutant worms’ in this special world.”

“For some reason, the high-tier special race that entrusted us with this mission can’t directly join the battlefield. So, think of us as mercenaries hired by that special race. We need to gain the upper hand through battles and earn more resources from that race. Does that make sense?”

Zaka was feeling a bit confused at first, but after organizing his thoughts, he finally caught on.

So, the Western District Federation was also a group of mercenaries?

So they were like outsourced contractors for this operation?

Was this some kind of nesting doll situation?

Fang Heng thought for a moment, glanced around at the ship’s environment, and then raised his head to ask, “When you mention the special race, are you referring to the spawns?”

“Oh? You’ve heard of the spawns?”

Zoran gave Fang Heng a surprised glance, then nodded and continued, “That’s classified. I’m not authorized to discuss it. However, according to the mission details, your goal is to complete as many tasks as possible to earn more contribution points. You can exchange them for more items when you return to the Western District Federation.”

As Zoran spoke, a game prompt appeared on Fang Heng’s retina.

[Hint: The player has triggered a scenario mission-Edge Wars.]

Mission name: Edge Wars.

Mission description: You have been recruited by an unknown force to become a mercenary. You are about to join a war between two races. You must complete missions on the battlefield to earn more mission points for your employers.

Side mission: Defeat the Enemy.

Mission description: Defeat hostile species on the battlefield to gain more experience. (Killing elites, leaders, etc., will grant extra experience).

Side mission 2: Spirit Crystal.

Mission description: The core point of this battlefield is a special crystal known as the spirit crystal. Players are tasked with collecting these crystals and transferring the valid spirit crystals to the ship.

Side mission 3: Mining Search.

Mission description: It is confirmed that there are spirit crystal deposits in this world. Players are tasked with exploring the world, searching for mining zones, and performing scans to confirm the discovery of deposits. Finding these crystals will yield additional contribution points.

Side mission 4: Building Repair and Positioning Construction.

Mission description: The ship is currently under attack by the mutant worms. The ship’s defensive facilities and the Star Map barrier have been heavily damaged during several counterattacks. Elite engineering players are needed to repair the damaged sections.

Side mission 5: Mutant Gene Acquisition.

Mission description: By collecting the mutant worm’s body genes and uploading them to the Star Map mainframe, the mainframe can develop targeted genetic weapons to destroy the mutant worm’s body structure and inflict additional damage. However, obtaining mutant worm’s body genes is difficult. Players must manually gather them (elite, mutated, or commander-level mutant worms have a chance to drop gene samples).

Side mission 6: Energy Collection.

Mission description: This world is far from the main world. Due to attacks from the mutant worms, the energy network towers connecting to the main world have been affected. The ship is running low on energy reserves. Players are tasked with locating usable energy sources in this world and bringing them back to the ship.

Fang Heng quickly glanced over the mission requirements.

Without exception, all the tasks were mercenary missions focused on the battlefield against the mutant worm race.

“It didn’t seem too difficult…”

Fang Heng lowered his head, deep in thought. When he raised it again, his brothers Zate and Zaka were already picking out weapons on the other side.

All the weapons provided by the ship were custom-made, including combat protection suits, long-range beam weapons, tactical goggles, biological sample gatherers, and special spirit crystal map detection instruments.

Due to the high energy weight-bearing capacity of the beam weapons, the backpack would suffer an additional weight penalty after carrying three energy units.

“This is the sixth-generation beam weapon we developed specifically for the mutant worm creatures of this world. It is effective against most of them,” Zoran said, looking at Fang Heng and his group, who were adjusting their weapons. He couldn’t help but remind them, “Remember, these mutant worms have special abilities. If you newcomers aren’t strong enough, it’s best not to venture too deep.”

“Understood.”

“Also, the energy boards on your right are equipped with advanced energy gathering systems. Once activated, the boards can levitate, significantly increasing individual movement speed.”

Zoran pointed to a row of metal plates on the right side of the weapon racks and said, “The downside is that they offer no defensive capabilities. If you’re attacked, they will be destroyed, and they can’t carry large materials. I suggest using them only when not in combat.”
