High in the sky, riding on the high-level back ridge, Ed and the other players were still a little frightened.
This trip to the underground palace was so exciting.
Viewed from a high place, the black breath of plague continues to spread from the ground, gradually filling the central inner city area of the imperial city.
There was no time to rest for a moment, and several lines of task prompts appeared on the retina.
[Tip: The player successfully killed Salvador and successfully triggered the follow-up mission - The Divided Empire].
Mission name: Divided Empire.
Mission difficulty: SS→SSS.
Mission requirement: Please try to assist Tang Mingyue in controlling the human empire.
mission rewards:???
Additional instructions: You have chosen a female heir, and the difficulty of the task will be increased.
Several players who followed Ed and sat on the back of the giant falcon saw the game prompts. They first looked at Tang Mingyue, and then all looked at Fang Heng.
They have realized that since the barbarians invaded the empire, everything seems to be under the control of Lord Fang Heng.
Including this time the early activation of the Abyss Demon and the leak of Breath of Plague.
With the scene just now, everyone felt that these things were caused by Fang Heng.
They now want to know what Fang Heng's next plan is.
Also, what is Breath of Plague and why was it released early?
And why did you choose to be loyal to Tang Mingyue?
After all, Tang Mo is a male and has always had a high reputation in the empire, so he is more suitable to become the leader of the empire.
Fang Heng was also stared at by everyone, a little confused, and couldn't help but turn his gaze to Wei Tao, with a questioning look in his eyes.
He also wanted to ask what kind of tricks Wei Tao and this group of players were doing?
Didn’t you say that everything should focus on trial tasks and not add extraneous details? Why do you say one thing and do another, and suddenly Tang Mo is competing with the players for the imperial power of the empire?
What are you doing?
And that Breath of Plague, releasing the Breath of Plague in advance?
What on earth do you think?
There were players present, but Fang Heng didn't say anything clearly and just tried to communicate with Weilun through eyes.
Unfortunately, Fang Heng did not see the answer in Weilun's eyes, but instead saw a pair of equally confused eyes.
"Ahem."
Seeing the strange silence in the atmosphere, Mo Jiawei couldn't help coughing lightly and asked: "Fang Heng, what's going on?"
Mo Jiawei was full of curiosity.
Do you have to make it so big? Get the abyss demon sealed underground in advance and destroy the entire empire?
"The Breath of the Plague was leaked in advance, and it is more terrifying than we expected." Fang Heng took a deep breath and said: "Anyway, let's go back to the Plague Land first and find a way to deal with the abyss evil."
…
Hani City.
An imperial city surrounded by the vines of a sacred tree.
Entering Hani City, players all felt a shock.
In just one day, Hani City has completely changed!
The city is completely covered in green, the buildings on both sides of the streets are covered with vines and moss, and the whole city is filled with the smell of trees.
In the conference hall.
Fang Heng finally learned the players' overall plan from Ed.
There was a moment of silence in the room.
Fang Heng was speechless for a moment.
When did he hint to Ed and the others to take control of the empire?
He just wants to defraud players of money and resources so that they can work for free!
Wei Tao is also true.
A dignified world leader, a talent that the Federation has cultivated for many years, is so easily fooled by players?
The Federation is really getting worse day by day.
Fang Heng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and couldn't help but look at Wei Tao with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
Seeing Fang Heng's silence, Aide couldn't help but cough lightly to break the silence, and said seriously: "Lord Fang Heng, the intelligence information we received from the imperial capital not long ago shows that Tang Wu has officially succeeded to the imperial throne and labeled us as traitors."
"Several imperial lords who have deep friendships with Tang Wu have sworn allegiance to Tang Wu."
"The Holy Court also announced that it was a plague land that spread the breath of plague, causing turmoil in the empire. Most of the lords of the empire are still waiting to see the split of the empire, but they are more inclined to Tang Wu."
Mo Jiawei felt quite unhappy when he heard this.
In the early vampire doomsday games, the Holy Court was not considered a human being in the past, but now it is almost the same.
"What does the abyss evil have to do with us? They just poured sewage on our heads? Maybe they leaked it themselves. Catch the thief, right? Damn it! There is no good person in the Holy Court."
Mo Jiawei couldn't help but rant. He didn't expect that as early as ten minutes ago, he thought that Breath of Plague was written by Fang Heng.
Ed was also surprised when he learned that Fang Heng was not responsible for the Breath of Plague incident. He continued: "The other thing is the Breath of Plague leak incident. Breath of Plague leak incidents have occurred all over the world, including the capital of the empire.
Especially in Linkliton City, a large-scale Breath of Plague leak occurred there.”
Weilun frowned, "I'm afraid there's something wrong with it. I've reinforced the seal of Linkliton City and it won't be naturally damaged in a short period of time. I'm afraid it's caused by someone pushing it behind the scenes..."
Weilun couldn't help but look worried as he spoke, raised his head to look at Fang Heng, and said in a deep voice: "Maybe someone wants to release the abyss evil."
Ed and other players were worried.
So difficult.
At this point in the game, they not only have to deal with Tang Wu, who is competing with them for control of the empire, but they also have to find a way to deal with the abyss evil.
Extremely stressful.
Everyone looked at Fang Heng.
Lord Fang Heng has always been strategizing and has calculated everything clearly. He must be prepared.
"Lord Fang Heng, we need to act as soon as possible, otherwise more and more imperial lords will pledge their allegiance to Tang Wu, and the leakage of the Breath of the Plague will continue to intensify, and our situation will only become more difficult."
"Well, I understand."
Fang Heng agreed.
He thought that taking control of the empire didn't sound very feasible.
However, the group of players in front of them have obviously been fooled.
Everyone has staked their entire family, and the atmosphere has been heightened.
Are you saying now that you understand the language incorrectly? I don’t want to seize the empire at all?
Not very good.
Ed noticed that Fang Heng had a different look on his face and asked cautiously: "Lord Fang Heng, then what are we doing now..."
After thinking about it, Fang Heng decided to be an ostrich.
First, stabilize these players. If you can, you can survive as long as you can, and focus on dealing with the abyss demons in secret.
The main task of the trial is to kill the Abyss Demon.
The benefits you can get after killing the demon are huge. Not only can your overall trial score be raised to SSS, but you can also get another reward for killing the abyss demon.
Eat two for one chicken.
You have to find a way to be greedy this time.
As for the civil strife in the empire and deceiving the major lords into allegiance, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and there is not so much effort to complete it.
The only way to do this is dragging.
Anyway, after destroying the Abyss Demon, the Ed player team can also receive part of the reward, which can almost make up for their losses.
