Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Outside the Temple of Incantation, several guards of the Leaf tribe saw Fang Heng coming and going, their expressions turning cold as they stopped him at the gate.

"Elder Rudyard has not returned yet. Please leave."

Fang Heng was accustomed to the attitude of the Leaf tribe and didn't mind. He paused and asked, "Where did Elder Rudyard go? Are you sure he's still safe?"

The expressions of the Leaf tribe guards changed instantly.

"Human, what do you mean by that?"

"It's nothing. I just encountered an ambush by the Wood tribe outside," Fang Heng explained briefly about the attack he faced from the Wood tribe outside.

Upon hearing this, the guards also realized that the situation was grim.

"The Wood tribe? Are you sure it was an attack by the Wood tribe? Is what you're saying true?"

"I have no reason to lie to you. If you don't believe me, you can go and investigate for yourselves."

The captain of the guards' expression changed several times.

"This is bad. The Wood tribe may be targeting the temple."

Elder Rudyard had just left, and the temple guards were weak. If the Wood tribe people concentrated their forces on the Temple of Incantation, it would be difficult for them to defend it.

"Can you contact the Elder?"

"We haven't been able to reach him for a while. Activate the remote mirror immediately. I need to report this to the Great Elder. Please, Great Elder, make a decision."

The captain of the guards looked at Fang Heng, warning, "Come with us and don't wander."

With that, the captain left two Leaf tribe guards to guard the entrance of the temple, while the rest hurried back into the Temple of Incantation.

Ovi and the others, who had just gone down to rest, quickly returned after receiving news of the Wood tribe's siege. They entered a side hall and used a magic array to activate remote communication with the Leaf tribe's headquarters.

Moments later, the face of the Great Elder Senzo appeared in the magic mirror.

Seeing Fang Heng's presence through the remote mirror, the Great Elder was momentarily surprised.

How did Fang Heng appear everywhere?

Ovi quickly recounted what had happened earlier, "Great Elder, we haven't heard from Elder Rudyard yet."

After hearing the whole story, Senzo pondered for a moment and said, "Earlier today, the major tribes decided to discuss the issue of sacred tree cultivation together. Rudyard went as a representative to participate in the discussion. All four major tribes were present, so the Wood tribe shouldn't have openly turned hostile during the meeting. I believe the elder should be fine."

Upon hearing that Rudyard was safe, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Ovi continued, "Great Elder, it seems that the Wood tribe likely took action during the discussions. How should we deal with their consOriginal?"

Fang Heng couldn't help but chuckle.

It was clear that they were the ones who took the Temple of Incantation, so how did it become a consOriginal by the Wood tribe?

But upon closer thought, Fang Heng found it odd.

At first glance, it seemed like the Wood tribe was luring them away from the temple.

But if it were Fang Heng playing such a trick, he would have attacked the Temple of Incantation immediately after luring Rudyard away.

Now, several hours had passed.

It was getting dark!

What were they waiting for? Why hadn't they attacked yet?

Even the day-old food was going cold!

Senzo also considered this possibility, his brow furrowed, silent.

"I will find a way to contact Rudyard. Later, Elder Vannes and Elder Ian, along with the Elders Council, will come through the teleportation passage to assist in defending the Temple of Incantation. You must assist the two elders in protecting the Bottle of Nature and the saplings of the sacred tree."

Senzo was unusually cautious.

He wondered, were the Wood tribe determined to engage them in a mutually destructive conflict?

That possibility seemed unlikely.

After all, there was no deep-seated enmity between the two sides.

There was no need to benefit the other two major tribes.

"Also, make sure to double-check the saplings of the sacred tree and the Temple of Incantation. We cannot afford any mistakes."

Since it concerned the saplings of the sacred tree, Senzo had to be extra cautious.

He decided to assign two elder-level combatants to ensure control of the situation.

Vannes was among the top combatants among the younger generation of elders.

With him present, there shouldn't be any major issues.

Considering the worst-case scenario, with two elders and the honorary elder guarding the saplings, their combined combat strength along with the branches of the sacred tree, Senzo was confident they could withstand an onslaught from the entire Wood tribe for a while!

Ovi and the others bowed in unison. "Yes! Understood!"

As the remote mirror slowly dissipated, Ovi stood up and said, "Everyone, Elder Vannes and Elder Ian are on their way. Prepare the teleportation passage immediately. Don't panic, it's just the Wood tribe. If they dare to come, they will pay the price in blood!"

"Understood!"

Soon, everyone went their separate ways.

Ovi immediately sent someone to the side hall to prepare for the activation of the emergency teleportation passage.

The Leaf tribe guards formed several reconnaissance teams to investigate the true intentions of the Wood tribe outside.

Ovi hurriedly took a few people to the main hall and reported the situation to the honorary elder, Farouk.

Just as they finished reporting and left the main hall, two leaf tribe members hurriedly approached, their eyes carrying a hint of panic.

"Don't panic," Ovi asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's the magic array. We just discovered that the energy of the emergency teleportation passage is rapidly decreasing. It must be due to external interference."

Ovi's heart sank.

Being interfered with for no apparent reason!

It must be the work of the Wood tribe!

"Let's go, take me to see."

The emergency teleportation magic array was in the side hall on the right side of the Temple of Incantation.

The magic array was slowly activated by several of his companions from the Leaf tribe.

Ovi checked the situation of the magic passage and his heart sank.

The Leaf tribe operated the teleportation passage in the Outer World through ritualistic energy infusion, enabling teleportation to various points. However, the Leaf tribe's teleportation ability was extremely limited within a short period.

In the past, energy could be swiftly restored through the power of the sacred tree.

But now, with the death of the tree spirit and the influence of external forces, the recovery speed of the entire magic array had been suppressed to its limit.

Optimistically, they could complete one more teleportation.

But thereafter, it would be troublesome.

"Ovi, forcibly completing the teleportation will cause significant damage to the teleportation passage. It's estimated that it won't be repairable in the short term. We only have one chance for teleportation."

Ovi's voice was firm, "Don't worry about what comes after, just activate the teleportation!"

As an honorary elder, Farouk didn't participate in internal decisions but only dealt with special affairs within the tribe.

At present, they needed the presence of the two elders, Vannes and Ian, to oversee the situation!

"Yes!!"

Without further delay, everyone immediately began to activate the teleportation magic array.

Of course, there was a significant risk in forcibly activating the magic array.

If the residual energy within the magic array wasn't sufficient to complete this teleportation...

They'd face whatever came their way!

As the magic array spun rapidly, the teleportation magic array suddenly became erratic, flickering intermittently.

"This isn't good!"

"Quick! Increase the energy output!"

"Ovi, the magic array is unstable!"

Several Leaf tribe members controlling the magic array turned pale, "The energy is already at its maximum!"

"This is bad, it's going out of control!"

"Quick! Think of something!"

Ovi felt a cold sweat forming on his forehead, his heart filled with anxiety.

What could he do?

All he could do was to push through and hope for the best!
