Chapter 2270 Collecting

ChatGPT

Zet was staring closely at Fang Heng, as if trying to ascertain the truthfulness of Fang Heng’s words.

Even though all the ore was provided by Fang Heng, the idea of setting up a temporary camp seemed utterly ridiculous.

Fang Heng shook his head and no longer paid attention to Zet, reaching into his backpack to pull out a mask.

Since Zet wasn’t cooperating, he’d handle it himself.

“Ssshh, ssshh, ssshh…”

As everyone stood there, the ground beneath their feet churned, accompanied by cries of anguish as a horde of zombie clones crawled out from the earth, dispersing in all directions.

Fang Heng had summoned nearly a thousand zombie creatures in this wave.

Zet’s expression grew grave.

It was the first time he had seen Fang Heng summon so many creatures at once.

What astonished him even more was that these summoned creatures actually took out their axes and began felling trees and gathering miscellaneous items like stones from the surroundings.

“This is…”

Zet quickly realized, squinting his eyes into slits once again.

The zombie creatures controlled by Fang Heng were actually able to cooperate to complete some simple material gathering and construction tasks!

A member of the Leaf tribe approached Zet and asked softly, “Leader, what should we do?”

“Give him a day, see what tricks he can come up with,” Zet said, continuing to watch Fang Heng’s every move. “Go patrol the perimeter, and keep an eye on Fang Heng. Report to me immediately if anything unusual happens.”

“Understood!”

With things at this stage, Zet and the accompanying members of the Leaf tribe also began to help in constructing the temporary camp.

Meanwhile, Fang Heng opened the game control interface on the spot, remotely controlling some of the zombies for the next steps.

The magic array belonged to the comprehensive category, and to improve efficiency, a camp was necessary.

Most importantly, beneath the temporary camp, he would excavate the first, second, and even third and fourth layers of the underground domain!

The morning light streamed into the forest, casting a faint blue mist in the air under its influence.

A temporary camp was established in the center of the forest.

It took Fang Heng more than eight hours to build this camp.

Three floors above ground and a whopping four floors below!

Each floor had branch magic arrays arranged.

During these eight hours, Zet watched as the camp was gradually built step by step.

The efficiency was surprisingly high!

Due to the rushed construction, the camp structure was almost entirely wooden. To the tree spirit tribe accompanying Zet, such a structure seemed very fragile and needed careful protection.

But there were advantages.

As long as the shelter wasn’t damaged, when they entered the Misty Realm again, the temporary camp would provide them with great convenience.

Furthermore, the camp could be continuously reinforced later on.

Zet had to admit that building the camp had its benefits.

The Leaf tribe members worked together to transport the magic array slabs to the center of the temporary camp.

Suddenly, Zet realized he had lost sight of Fang Heng and couldn’t help but ask, “Where’s Fang Heng?”

“He just finished setting up the magic array on the lower level.”

“The lower level?”

“Yes.”

Zet frowned. “Come on, show me.”

Entering the lower level, Zet saw Fang Heng concentrating on arranging the magic array in the basement area.

This time, Fang Heng also used a giant-sized magic array constructed using multiple magic arrays.

The external construction of the magic array was done by the zombie clones.

Simple small-scale magic arrays could be arranged by the Leaf tribe, and he only needed to modify them later.

Even so, it was still a huge project.

“Fang Heng, the slabs have been transported to the center of the camp as you instructed. When can we start collecting dimensional strength?” Zet asked as Fang Heng finished linking the last two magic arrays and saw Zet and his men entering. “It’s almost ready. We can start preparing soon.”

“The slabs themselves are too fragile. Modifying them directly might irreversibly damage the magic array. For safety, we’ll add magic arrays around the perimeter to expand the overall effect of the magic array. That’s why we had to establish the camp,” Fang Heng explained, pausing and looking back at Zet. “In other words, what we need to protect is the entire camp.”

Zet remained non-committal and took a few steps forward, bending down to inspect the magic array Fang Heng had just finished setting up.

He scrutinized it from top to bottom.

Well.

He couldn’t understand it at all.

But it sounded okay at first listen.

“We’ll ensure safety. You don’t need to worry. How much longer until the magic array is complete?” Zet inquired.

“If everything goes smoothly, no more than half an hour.”

“Good, I’ll wait outside for you.”

The air in the basement was a bit murky. Zet signaled for a few Leaf tribe members to continue watching Fang Heng and left with his people.

Watching Zet and the others leave, a faint smirk appeared on Fang Heng’s lips.

He spoke the truth but didn’t finish it.

Indeed, building the camp could significantly enhance the overall efficiency of the magic array.

Of course, he had a more important purpose as well.

…

Another hour passed.

After completing the construction of the magic array, Fang Heng carefully checked it again and, once confirmed it was flawless, gathered everyone on the ground floor of the temporary camp.

Six Leaf tribe guards stood at the six starting points of the magic array.

“Everyone, after my modification, the dimensional energy absorption magic array will require more mental strength to activate. However, the absorption efficiency will be greatly increased. Currently, the magic array can be operated by up to 24 people simultaneously,” Fang Heng explained. “The operation of the modified magic array will be different from before, but don’t worry, I will lead you through it. Just follow my mental guidance.”

With that said, Fang Heng looked at Zet.

“Well, let’s get started,” Zet nodded.

At least up to this point, Zet couldn’t find fault with anything Fang Heng had done.

He was indeed focused on arranging the magic array.

Soon, a Leaf tribe member placed the sacrificial jar into the groove of the magic array slab and tightly held the Nature’s Heart crystal in their hand.

“Hum…”

As Fang Heng injected his mental strength into the magic array, the entire array emitted a faint white light.

The magic array quickly flowed.

The surface of the Nature’s Heart crystal in the Leaf tribe member’s hand subtly fluctuated.

The magic arrays throughout the shelter immediately triggered.

Under the influence of Nature’s Heart, the dimensional energy bottle began to slowly absorb energy.

Zet kept a close eye on the changes in the magic array and the sacrificial jar.

It seemed that the efficiency of absorbing dimensional energy from the sacrificial jar was similar to before?

“Everyone, I will gradually increase the absorption speed of the magic array for external dimensional energy. Additionally, creatures in this world will be enhanced due to the accelerated extraction of dimensional energy. I predict that the number of creatures attacking the camp will significantly increase, so please ensure the safety of the camp,” Fang Heng warned.

“You can rest assured, leave the safety of the camp to us while you focus on activating the magic array.”
