Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Narlyev withdrew his gaze from Fang Heng and said, "What you see regarding our modifications of the demonic seed is only a small part. Most of the research principles are actually based on the notes left by my ancestors."

"Your ancestors?"

"Yes, my great-grandfather."

Narlyev continued to explain, "He was once a member of the Conservatives and learned the secrets of the demonic seed from them."

"Unlike most Conservatives, he believed that they had lost their drive, clinging to meaningless doctrines. What we should do is embrace strength, and understand our enemies; only then can we grasp the true power that belongs to us."

"After that, he left the Conservatives and founded the Revolution Society, embracing new strength."

"As he predicted, he gradually became influenced by the taint of power during his research, becoming a follower of Jealousy."

"He was also one of the few humans who have directly conversed with the Jealousy demonic seed."

"Well, I've digressed. From what we currently know, the Jealousy demonic seed possesses unique powers; it can convert and extract strength from other demonic seeds. However..."

Narlyev paused, shaking his head and sighing. "Unfortunately, our research has only reached this point, and we haven't made any progress in many years. Thus, we have had to shift our focus to studying other hell creatures, hoping to find a breakthrough through them."

"Is that so...?"

"However, there are still other ways," Narlyev changed his tone, looking up. "Fang Heng, according to my great-grandfather, when he left the Revolution Society, he only took a portion of the information, leaving the rest within the Conservatives."

"I believe the archives must contain some records related to the demonic seed."

"For instance, a book that details the secrets of hell—the Book of Greleng. My great-grandfather has seen that book, which contains the runes left by the Jealousy demonic seed. These runes could help us better control hell's powers and even find a way to deal with the Jealousy demonic seed."

Fang Heng looked up and asked, "You want me to help you find the Book of Greleng?"

"Exactly. We can collaborate to obtain it."

Narlyev nodded. "The Conservatives are very wary of us. In recent years, my clandestine actions have been uncovered without exception, so I stopped making subtle moves and decided to be more direct."

"But you are different. Last time, you and their people destroyed my research room, and today, you fought with me. The Conservatives will see us as enemies."

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Recently, I've gathered quite a bit of information; the Conservatives have been trying to recruit you."

"Coincidentally, tomorrow is the Conservatives' annual large gathering, where various occult scholars will participate. It will be a mixed crowd, and my people will blend in."

"At that time, we will provoke the Hell Gate, summoning hell creatures to attack the Conservatives' gathering, creating chaos. In the midst of the turmoil, we will seize the Book of Greleng. If you're interested, you can join us."

A game hint suddenly flashed in Fang Heng's vision.

[Hint: The player has triggered an option mission-Invitation to Collaborate.]

Mission name: Invitation to Collaborate.

Mission difficulty: SSS

Mission Option 1: Trust and Collaborate.

Mission description: Narlyev's invitation to collaborate is a good opportunity. If you can find the Book of Greleng and the inscriptions left by the Jealousy demonic seed, it could greatly enhance your power.

Mission requirements: Collaborate with Narlyev, infiltrate the Conservatives, and attempt to locate the Book of Greleng within their ranks to hand it over to Narlyev.

Mission reward: Friendship with the Revolution Society, unknown.

Mission Option 2: Doubt and Betray.

Mission description: You have a bad feeling about Narlyev. You suspect he may be hiding something from you, and the proposed collaboration might be a trap.

Mission requirements: Pretend to agree to collaborate, inform the Conservatives about Narlyev's plan, and assist the Conservatives in repelling Narlyev's team.

Mission reward: Friendship with the Conservatives, unknown.

[Description: The player can also choose other decision-making methods, which will lead to unknown results and will not yield mission rewards.]

[Hint: Due to the player's current Greed demonic seed bloodline awakening, the player gains an additional mission option.]

Mission Option 3: Greed and Greater Greed.

Mission description: It doesn't matter whether Narlyev is genuinely cooperating with you; seeking personal gain is what you need to focus on. Pretend to agree to collaborate with Narlyev, and during the subsequent actions, seize the Book of Greleng for yourself.

Mission reward: Remove restrictions on the mission item for the Book of Greleng.

[Hint: Because the player's Greed demonic seed bloodline has awakened, the player can choose to accept multiple decision-making missions simultaneously and receive additional mission rewards (some conflicting missions cannot be completed). Each additional decision completed will increase the final reward by 100%.]

[Hint: The player can extend the mission settlement time, with a maximum extension of 72 hours.]

Fang Heng quickly reviewed the mission hints.

Branch mission options!

Here we go again!

Three side missions, and completing all could yield a 300% reward!

However, unlike the last time, these branch missions seemed a bit...

Hmm...

It seemed like completing all the tasks simultaneously wasn't possible.

Despite the complex descriptions, it could be summarized into three main points.

Either cooperate with the Revolution Society or cooperate with the Conservatives...

Or he could just do it alone!

Fang Heng lowered his head, carefully reviewing the descriptions of the three mission options. His gaze quickly moved to the last part of the hints.

"Delay mission settlement..."

He murmured, his eyes glinting with a mix of thoughtfulness and greed.

It seemed there might be a way after all.

An idea formed in his mind!

Theoretically, the three side missions could be completed simultaneously!

Fang Heng quickly devised a plan. First, he would cooperate with Narlyev. Then, the next day, he would enter the Conservatives' territory under the guise of a participant and expose Narlyev's attack plan to them. Amidst the ensuing chaos, he would locate the Book of Greleng within the Conservative ranks.

Afterward, he would assist the Conservatives in repelling Narlyev's assault team, fulfilling mission option two.

Once he had the Book of Greleng, he would return to the Revolution Society and hand it over to complete mission option one.

Finally, he would snatch the Book of Greleng from Narlyev!

It was a bit convoluted, and the difficulty of accomplishing all this was significantly higher than completing a single task.

But the rewards would be equally substantial! Not only could he receive three sets of rewards, but they would also multiply to a whopping 300%!
