Lucia drove her motorcycle into the raw material area of the chemical nt.
Her eyes searched the area.
Found it!
‘Two gas tanks marked with an “X” symbol and two torches were ced on them. It was an anomaly!
Lucia did not hesitate. She jumped off the high-speed motorcycle and jumped toward the marked circle on the ground.
“Bang!”
Lucia fell to the ground and rolled on the ground twice to relieve the force.
Just as she stood up, she felt something under her feet.
Under her feet, fine vines were climbing up along her ankles quickly!
Her pupils slightly locked, and she subconsciously wanted to get up.
Fang Heng’s voice came through themunicator.
“Don’t move! Lucia! Listen to me! Don’t move at all!”
Lucia froze on the spot.
The thin vines coiled up under her feet at an extremely fast speed!
Lucia didn’t move at all, allowing the vines to gradually extend to her neck.
“Roar!”
The nemesis didn’t slow down, running towards Lucia.
“Chi!!”
Lucia felt the vines instantly contract.
‘A powerful strength pulled her back.
The vines gradually passed over her head and evenpletely blocked her vision.
Lucia could no longer see the outside world. She heard rustling soundsing from the outside world.
She could feel that she was being dragged by the vines on the ground!
‘The nemesis chased after Lucia, who was wrapped inyers of vines until she saw Lucia being dragged into the sewer.
“Boom!”
The next second, a loud explosion sounded.
Asmall bomb that was installed on the chemical gas tank detonated.
Two metal tanks containing explosive gas exploded one after another.
“Boom! Boom!!!”
The ground shook violently!
‘The energy from the explosion of the chemical gas tank radiated out. The chain reaction caused the mmable gas tanks in the entire factory to explode one after another!
Amushroom cloud soared into the sky.
The entire factory was shrouded in a thick ck fog.
Two kilometres away.
The Dark Knights were on their way to the weapons factory, cleaning up the zombies they encountered along the way.
“Boom!!!”
A thunderous explosion came from the direction of the chemical nt.
The ground under their feet shook violently!
Everyone could not help but look in the direction of the chemical nt.
In the light of the fire, amushroom cloud soared into the sky.
The entire chemical nt was engulfed in a sea of fire.
Everyone fell into silence.
Could they survive in such an environment?
‘The sewer must have copsed from the explosion!
Xiao Jing swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Holding the notebook in his hand, he tried to open themunicator.
“Fang Heng? Fang Heng, how’s your situation now?”
Perhaps due to the impact of the explosion, themunicator was full of noise and could not be heard clearly.
Xiao Jing faintly felt uneasy.
He was about to take notes when Fang Heng’s voice appeared through themunicator.
Fang Heng said, “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me. Go to the factory first, we will meet up with you allter.”
He was not dead!
Even though he did not know what method Fang Heng used, he was still alive!
Xiao Jing could not suppress his excitement.
He had to record it down and report it to his superiors!
Xiao Jing opened the ck notebook and took notes.
“The target has a strong survival ability. He survived the big explosion that could destroy the entire chemical nt. He needs to be observed!
“Private Xiao Jing! How many times have I said it! Don’t dawdle! Quickly follow the team!”
In the depths of the sewer.
The vines wrapped around Lucia’s body gradually dispersed.
Even so, the continuous collisions along the way still caused Lucia to nearly faint from the pain.
Lucia opened her eyes.
‘The first thing she saw was Fang Heng.
Lucia knew that she was safe.
“Fang Heng, Did we seed?”
“Yes, let’s leave this ce first.”
Lucia stood up with Fang Heng’’s help.
It was only then that Lucia realized that the dense vines had already covered the ceiling of the sewer.
It was precisely because of the stability of these vines that the sewer was not crushed by the previous explosion.
Even so, the violent explosion still caused cracks to appear on the ceiling of the sewer.
There were even a lot of crushed stones falling from the ceiling.
“Let’s go out and take a look.”
The entrance of the sewer that they had entered previously had been blocked from the outside.
Fang Heng had no choice but to bring Lucia out from another sewer exit outside the chemical nt.
The fire was still burning in the chemical nt.
After leaving the sewer, Fang Heng and Lucia immediately raised their guns and fired, taking care of a few zombies that were staggering towards the chemical nt.
‘The loud explosion and mes attracted the zombies in the city. They wailed and gathered here.
While there were not many zombies, Fang Heng took Lucia and the zombie team into the chemical nt.
“Fang Heng? Aren’t we going back?”
“Wait a little longer. I need to confirm the status of the nemesis.”
Lucia asked in surprise, “Is she still alive?”
“Tm not too sure.”
Fang Heng quickly flipped through the game log as he spoke.
At the moment of the explosion, a row of notifications about killing zombies appeared in the game log.
However, in his memory, he did not see any hint of killing the nemesis before, and there was no hint that the side mission had beenpleted.
As expected, there was no hint!
Fang Heng checked again, but he still could not find any relevant game hint.
The nemesis was still alive!
Fang Heng did not expect the nemesis to have such tenacious vitality!
The intensity of the explosion had already ttened the entire chemical nt, but it did not kill the nemesis.
He had to go over and take a look.
What if the nemesis was already at critical HP?
Now might be the best time to strike!
Fang Heng brought Lucia back to the chemical nt’s raw material area.
“Over there!”
Lucia, who had enhanced vision, saw the fallen nemesis at a nce.
Her body was already charred ck.
She wasn’t dead yet?
Fang Heng signalled Lucia not to get close. He found a nearby cover to hide and took out an automatic rifle.
“Bang! Bang Bang! Bang Bang Bang Bang!”
Purple blood sttered out from the burnt body of the nemesis.
After a round of bullets, there was still no hint in the game log.
It was as if the bullets had hit a dead body.
Something was wrong!
Fang Heng frowned.
“Fang Heng, look at the ground. What is that thing?”
Lucia noticed something and pointed at the ce where the nemesis was lying.
With the help of the light from the fire, Fang Heng’s eyes narrowed into a slit.
‘Was that…?
Aworm?
‘They saw a pale purple worm creature that was only half the size of a palm. It was hiding under the nemesis’s body.
Looking closely, simr purple worms were crawling in and out of the burnt body of the nemesis.
‘There was not much information rted to the nemesis in Fang Heng’s body’s memory. He had no idea what this worm was.
He asked Mo Jiawei and Xiao Jing.
‘They might have relevant information.
Fang Heng turned on themunicator.
Fang Heng: “Mo Jiawei, Xiao Jing, Can you hear me? I see a light purple worm on the nemesis.”
Fang Heng: “Do you know what it is? Or how much information do you know about the nemesis?”
‘Mo Jiawei: “Yes, I can hear you. I’m sorry, I don’t have any information here. I can only use my talent skill to obtain information if I see it with my own eyes.”
Xiao Jing: “I know this. Fang Heng, what you are seeing now is the third form of the nemesis, ‘fake death’..”
