Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

1154 Commission

“It’s okay, I know what you mean.”

Fang Heng walked to the sofa at the side of the hall and sat down, waiting for Sandy to return from his intelligence gathering on the third floor.

He would not make a move for now before Sandy returned.

Fang Heng sized up the hall with ill intent.

The Alchemy Society was so good at scamming money, so they must be very rich. When he leave this place, he had to think of a way to steal from them. He would discuss this with Tang Mingyue after he rescued her.

Ed sat beside Fang Heng. For some reason, he suddenly felt a chill in his spine.

Now that he finally had the chance, Ed continued to probe, “Lord Fang Heng, did you manage to inform your friend about the matter last time?”

“Yes, I’ve informed him.”

Fang Heng was also pondering over Ed’s attitude. It seemed like Ed still thought that he was on a game mission and wanted to cooperate.

Ed continued to ask, “What did your friend say?”

“He didn’t say anything, he just said that you’re not an enemy. I think we might be able to cooperate,” Fang Heng continued in a flat tone.

Ed was overjoyed when he heard that.

“Ah, yes, yes, cooperation, cooperation.”

“Ding Dong!”

The crisp sound of an elevator could be heard.

Fang Heng’s gaze was attracted by the sound of the elevator.

Looking in the direction of the sound, a few elementary mages pushed a cart out of the elevator under the lead of a member of the Alchemy Society.

As the mages were wearing custom-made clothes from the Mage Association, they were easy to recognize.

Eh? Mages from the Mage Association? That’s strange, why were they here?

Fang Heng was a little puzzled and looked at them a few more times.

There was an ordinary wooden box on the cart.

The mages pushed their carts past Fang Heng not far away.

All of a sudden, Fang Heng raised his eyebrows.

He could feel a familiar spiritual energy fluctuation from the box.

The unknown black stone?

There were black stones inside!

Fang Heng’s spirit was lifted and his eyes were fixed on those people.

Could it be that there was an unexpected surprise on this trip to the Alchemy Society?

Soon, they pushed the cart through the gate at the back of the right side of the passage and completely disappeared from Fang Heng’s sight.

Fang Heng turned his head to look at Ed and asked in a low voice, “Why are there people from the Mage Association here?”

“I think they were recruited by the Alchemy Society to help.”

“Recruited?”

“Yes.”

Ed explained to Fang Heng.

A long time ago, alchemy and magic used to be one family. It was only after alchemy had made great strides in development and progress that they gradually separated, forming two completely different departments.

Even so, the two of them had a lot in common.

For example, they would need to rely on mental strength and would be able to set up magic arrays.

Most alchemists focused on the study of alchemy tactics and the arrangement and control of alchemy magic arrays, so their mental strength was much weaker than mages of the same rank.

However, many alchemy research studies required a large amount of mental power.

Therefore, the Alchemy Society thought of a way. They tried to separate the infusion and the control of mental power as much as possible. This would require the assistance of mages with strong spiritual power.

In the Empire, the low-level mages were actually very poor. Their combat ability was often limited, and their daily cultivation and improvement required a large amount of money.

If they went out to fight, they would have to use all kinds of potions provided by the Alchemy Society.

As a result, most apprentice mages and elementary mages would choose to work at the Alchemy Society to earn money.

In the long run, the alchemy scholars of the Alchemy Society would have an innate sense of superiority when they saw mages.

They felt that the mages were just their workers.

“This can’t be helped, the one with more money is the boss.”

Ed sighed.

Alchemy was more difficult to learn than magic, but it was also more profitable.

However, in terms of actual combat ability, in the middle and late stages, advanced mages could crush those of the same level, and even those of a higher level could crush the alchemists.

“So that’s how it is…”

Fang Heng stood up and said, “I’ll go and ask.”

At the front desk, Trudor heard Fang Heng’s inquiry about the recruitment of mages and immediately showed a contemptuous look.

“Recruitment? Indeed, the Alchemy Society has been hiring people from the Mage Association to help us.”

“But we don’t provide commissions directly here. I suggest you go to the commission building of the Mage Association next door to take a look.”

Fang Heng pointed his chin at the passage where the mages were transporting the supplies and asked, “Were they also recruited?”

“Right, I almost forgot. Master Milta’s research project is in need of manpower. If you want, you can go directly. Yes, it’s in the hall in the second basement. You can report there directly. There are people from your Mage Association there.”

Fang Heng continued to ask, “Did they also participate in Master Milta’s project?”

“Yes, but I have to remind you that Master Milta’s research project has a high demand for spiritual power. A few people have suffered spiritual damage in the past few days. I advise you not to force yourself. If you want to go, take the elevator over there.”

Trudor pointed at the elevator on the right and then ignored the two.

“Lord Fang Heng, do you want to go downstairs to take a look?”

Fang Heng looked up at the elevator going up from the left and nodded his head when he realized that Sandy had yet to return.

Might as well, he could go in and take a look at the situation before Sandy returns.

The unknown stone was the key to the evolution of the sacred tree, so it would be best if he could find relevant clues.

“Then I’ll go with you to take a look.”

Hearing that, Ed knew it was time for him to show off again. He followed Fang Heng into the elevator on the right side of the hall.

…

“Ding Dong.”

The elevator stopped at the second basement.

It was Ed’s first time at the Imperial Alchemy Society.

In fact, the Alchemy Society had set up a commission point in other cities.

The missions from the Alchemy Society there were often very complicated.

In addition to the need for mages to act as assistants, they also often needed some special resources, materials, and even live magical beasts.

Moreover, they usually spent a long time completing the commission and only received a few Alchemy Society points.

It was time-consuming and laborious.

Ed felt that it was completely unnecessary.

The commission hall in the headquarters of the Imperial Alchemy Society was obviously more advanced.

When the elevator door opened and he saw the scene in the hall of the second basement, Ed was a little shocked.

It wasn’t a commission hall. It was just a bare front hall.

More than ten mages stood in the front hall.

Looking at their attire, they were all mages who were at the elementary level.

All the mages cast questioning looks at Fang Heng and Ed.

A young female mage in a light blue robe walked out of the crowd and came to Fang Heng and Ed, asking, “Are the two of you also here to accept a commission?”

Fang Heng nodded and said, “Yes, that’s right. It’s Master Milta’s research and development project. Someone upstairs told me to come here directly.”
