He wasn’t quite sure how long Orkney would need to rest and recuperate.
Recalling the situation from before, the Frostbone Dragon’s wrathful strike had left a corrosive imprint on Orkney.
It was estimated that he would need at least two or three days of rest.
During this time, he planned to make good use of it.
For instance, he had long wanted to study the disciplines of Mysticism and Astrology. He had even hired a tutor outside the game.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t possible to access these studies outside the game; he needed to learn them within the game itself.
It didn’t have to be too complicated; a mid-tier game world would suffice.
With the omniscient eye, the difficulty of learning these two skills wasn’t great, but gaining experience and leveling up would still require time.
So, he immediately set out to study them.
Also, there was…
Fang Heng thought about Bai Mu.
As a fellow ‘demonic seed,’ Bai Mu had previously invited him to the White Abyss to make some preliminary arrangements concerning ‘Jealousy.’
Unfortunately, at that time, Fang Heng was constantly being tracked by the Holy Realm and couldn’t get away.
After evaluating the risks, Fang Heng had deemed it too dangerous. If he ventured into the White Abyss while being pursued by the Holy Realm, ‘Jealousy’ would undoubtedly notice something was amiss and become cautious.
Thus, he had asked Bai Mu to find a way to help him temporarily shake off the Holy Realm’s pursuit, but after that, there had been no further developments.
With the Holy Realm’s troubles temporarily cleared, he could now ask Bai Mu about the situation in the White Abyss.
It would be best if the arrangements could be made within the next couple of days.
Hmm.
Having reached Level 49 and obtained over 50,000 zombie clones, Fang Heng needed to hurry back to the Zombie Apocalypse to complete the Licker form’s solidification and enhance combat strength.
Compared to other forms, solidifying the Licker form was undoubtedly the most cost-effective.
Speaking of which, his funds were a bit tight, and the gap in King of Gods’ points was growing larger. He would need to think of ways to grind out more King of Gods’ points…
…
Fang Heng returned to the Zombie Apocalypse and quickly arranged for Qiu Yaokang to solidify the Licker form. After that, he logged off immediately and promptly began trying to contact Bai Mu.
The phone number left by Bai Mu went unanswered, only providing a voicemail message.
Fang Heng knew that Bai Mu was most likely in the game and wasn’t in a hurry. After leaving a message, he started searching for a suitable mid-tier game world to quickly learn Mysticism and Astrology.
In the game, Mysticism and Astrology were relatively rare disciplines.
These disciplines weren’t suitable for direct combat and were primarily used for support, which meant fewer players mastered them.
Surviving and thriving in the game took precedence, and most players who made it through the early stages and into mid-tier or advanced game worlds did not focus on such support roles.
So, Fang Heng called Old Black for assistance in finding someone.
With the omniscient eye, Fang Heng only needed to see a demonstration of the two disciplines to learn them.
Therefore, he made an additional request: he needed tips for quickly gaining experience points in these skills.
With these tips, he could use his zombie clones to farm experience efficiently, likely filling up the experience bar in no time.
Old Black’s response was swift; within half an hour, he had found someone. They agreed to meet in the barbarian realm, a mid-tier game world, an hour later.
Fang Heng quickly returned to the Zombie Apocalypse, handled the new zombie clones by batching them for offline processing, and then set off for the barbarian realm.
…
After a significant upheaval, the barbarian realm game world had once again returned to calm.
Given the substantial reward promised by Old Black, two players accepted the commission and arrived as soon as possible, eagerly waiting in the tavern of the Empire city.
As soon as they saw Fang Heng, dressed as a necromancy mage, enter the tavern, the two players stood up quickly.
“Mr. Fang?”
“Yes, it’s me.”
Xu Chengcheng and Su Yi exchanged glances, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness.
Fang Heng!
The mastermind behind the Vampire Apocalypse.
They never expected they would actually meet him today.
As rumored, he was indeed young!
“I’m Xu Chengcheng, and this is Su Yi.”
“Mm.”
Fang Heng looked around the tavern.
Xu Chengcheng nodded and said, “Mr. Fang, you can rest assured that this place is very secure. I’ve cleared out all the non-essential personnel from the tavern.”
“Good. Old Black should have briefed you on everything. Let’s start as soon as possible.”
“Sure.”
Xu Chengcheng steadied himself and began, “Let me start. I’ve been studying Astrology for three years and have just advanced to the mid-tier stage.”
“In fact, there’s a common misconception among ordinary players about Astrology. Many think it’s about predicting the future, but that’s not entirely accurate. Initially, Astrology wasn’t about predicting the future but rather about interpreting the present. The more information you have, the more precise your interpretation will be.”
“In Astrology, everything exists within a trajectory. Every interaction leaves a trace, and by following these traces, we can understand what is currently happening.”
“For example, if I want to know your current location, the more information I have about your traces, the more comprehensive the information I can obtain through Astrology.”
“Astrology can eventually extend to making predictions about the future.”
“In theory, it’s possible, but it’s more of a theory. Predicting future events based on traces can be unreliable unless the traces are very clear; otherwise, the results are unpredictable and not exact.”
“Moreover, through Astrology, we can deliberately create certain ‘traces.’ Once these ‘traces’ are triggered, we can immediately know about it and thus anticipate significant events in advance.”
“That’s the general idea. Now, let me give you a demonstration.”
Xu Chengcheng took a crystal ball from his backpack and placed it on the table. He said, “Mr. Fang, is there anything you would like to determine through Astrology?”
“There are many things,” Fang Heng said after a moment of thought. “I want to know the general location of Bai Mu.”
Xu Chengcheng, not knowing who Bai Mu was, gestured to Fang Heng. “Alright, Mr. Fang. Please place your hand on the crystal ball and channel your spirit and thoughts into it, while recalling all relevant events related to Orkney. The more detailed, the better.”
“Understood.”
Fang Heng agreed and reached out to touch the crystal ball.
“Buzz…”
The crystal ball emitted a soft, glowing light.
Waves of alternating light and shadow danced in the center of the crystal ball.
Xu Chengcheng focused intently on the crystal ball, slowly placing his hands on it to assist with the guidance.
What?!
As soon as Xu Chengcheng’s hands made contact with the crystal ball, he felt a jolt as if he had been shocked, and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
What in the world!
What exactly was Mr. Fang divining?
How could there be such a strong backlash?
