Chapter 2825: Secrets

Su Guantong shook her head, her gaze fixed on Fang Heng, “Not really that early.”

Zate said, “Didn’t you say you were going to hug a big thigh? Since Mr. Fang didn’t reveal his identity from the beginning, we should still pretend we don’t know anything.”

Zaka was dumbfounded upon hearing this.

That made a lot of sense.

In no time, the Lickers that sprang from the magic arrays gathered around Fang Heng’s feet and quickly formed into flesh cocoons.

In just a few seconds, vine-transformed zombies crawled out of the pulsating flesh cocoons.

Zombies!

He was definitely the World Lord, Fang Heng!

Zaka became even more certain of his guess.

Under the amazed gazes of Zaka and the others, the vine zombies scattered and began gathering scattered abandoned pickaxes, attempting to gather wood and stone to craft stone pickaxes.

Next, the undeads all headed towards the mining area, beginning to mine ores in the spirit crystal mine domain.

Zaka swallowed nervously.

Zombies could mine too?

Soon, as the digging continued, the zombies walked back and forth in front of Zaka and the others, discarding the mined ores at their feet.

Zaka stared at their actions and the growing pile of ores in front of him, feeling somewhat stunned.

What was the meaning of this?

Su Guantong was also shaken.

She had seen detailed information about Fang Heng in the Federation’s database, which also described the summoning of zombies.

It was said that zombie summons not only had extremely strong combat strength but could also assist with tasks like transporting, digging, and building.

The Federation database only had a cold line of text, but seeing this with her own eyes, Su Guantong realized just how terrifying this ability was.

One person was enough to rival the strength of a large team.

In fact, it was even stronger than a large team!

Fang Heng quickly completed a few more magic arrays in another part of the open space and then walked over to Zaka and the others.

“Everyone.”

Zaka, still stunned, instinctively looked up at Fang Heng when he heard the voice.

“Everyone, I need you to help with something.”

“Sure, of course,” Zaka quickly nodded. “Mr. Fang, whatever you need.”

Fang Heng noticed the change in how they were addressing him and realized they had already figured out his identity. He nodded and said, “I’ll need you to keep the zombie matter confidential.”

“Of course.”

Zaka made a gesture across his lips, “It’ll be top secret.”

“My summons can’t differentiate between ore levels, so I need you to help sort and separate them. Later, the zombies will place the ores into the magic arrays, and they’ll carry out the next step of refinement.”

The zombies’ intelligence was still a major issue, and they weren’t as convenient as players.

“Huh? They can automatically refine them?”

Zaka was once again shocked by this.

The zombie summons were not only capable of gathering resources, but they could also refine crystal ore?

Wasn’t this just a direct way to mine refined products?

How was this any different from cheating?

“Ten crystal ores or gemstones of the same level placed into the magic array, then the zombies will automatically start refining. Thanks for your help, please begin immediately.”

“Okay, okay, no problem. I’ll give it a try.”

Zaka nodded and tried to sort out ten pieces of crystal ore. He picked up the crystal ore and walked up to the magic array, placing the ore into it.

The zombie standing by the magic array immediately reacted.

The magic array slowly blossomed with a faint glow.

At the same time, Fang Heng’s retina displayed a series of game hints.

[Hint: The player’s zombie clone is currently refining spirit crystal ore…]

[Hint: The player’s zombie clone failed to refine the crystal ore. The player gained 120 gemstone refining experience points.]

“Bang!”

The magic array at the center suddenly exploded, and the original ore turned into dust.

“Ah, this…”

Zaka stared at the magic array, which had turned to powder, unsure of what to do next.

“It’s okay, it’s just a failed refinement. The skill is still new, and the level is low, so the success rate is not high. It will gradually improve over time,” Fang Heng said, glancing at the game hint. He continued, “Keep going. You just need to sort the ores. The zombies will handle the transport.”

“Oh, alright.”

Zaka agreed, and then, along with Su Guantong and Zate, they continued to pick up the ores on the ground and sort them.

Su Guantong observed quietly.

Fang Heng’s special summoning ability was incredibly strong, but it had its weaknesses.

For example, the summons didn’t have high intelligence.

After thinking carefully, Su Guantong felt a chill.

If the summons were already this strong, what would happen if they also had enhanced intelligence? Who could compete with that?

Meanwhile, Fang Heng was adjusting the assembly line operations based on the zombies’ actions.

He wasn’t in a rush.

The skill level was low, and the refinement success rate was also low.

It would take time.

Even if the crystal tempering failed, he would still gain experience points for his tempering skill.

Once the skill was maxed out, the success rate for crafting would reach 65%.

As the zombie clones crafted various wooden pickaxes, the mining efficiency slowly increased.

Zaka and his group didn’t have much to do. Once the assembly line was perfected, their task was just to classify the ores. They simply had to sort the spirit crystals the zombies gathered by quality and level.

Afterward, the zombies would automatically transport the refined gemstones back.

Soon, over half an hour had passed, and the mining area was surrounded by a circle of zombies.

The mining efficiency had already reached its limit, right?

Zaka was thinking about this when his eyelid twitched.

More?

He looked up and saw magic arrays rising beneath Fang Heng’s feet once again.

A large number of Lickers emerged from the magic arrays.

The Lickers quickly gathered around Fang Heng, forming flesh cocoons on the spot.

After five minutes of incubation, Lickers with stealth abilities emerged from the flesh cocoons.

“Chi, chi chi…”

The transformed Lickers didn’t mine but quickly climbed up the cave walls and disappeared through the tunnel the group had come from.

Zaka’s eyelid twitched again.

Together, there must be over ten thousand of them now, right?

How many summons could Fang Heng call?

Was it truly unlimited?

The power of the World Lord was indeed terrifying.

“Everyone.”

Fang Heng approached Zaka and the others once again.

“I need you to do me a favor and run an errand.”

Zaka immediately stood up, patting his pants, “No problem, Mr. Fang. Just tell me what you need.”

Fang Heng pointed to a batch of B-grade gemstones sorted on the side.

“The first batch of gemstones has been tempered. I’ll need you to carry them back to the ship and exchange them for contribution points for me. After that, I’ll also need to exchange for a few more cargo drones and bring back more multi-functional combat shovels.”
