<h4>Chapter 1866 The Connection</h4>


    "Pa Ta."


    On the other side of the game rift, Aktu was staring outside the rift. He was wondering why Fang Heng had note out yet. When he looked up, a figure jumped out of the rift.


    "Brother Fang Heng!"


    Aktu sized Fang Heng up and asked, "Where''s that squirrel? Didn''t it run out with you?"


    "Yes, the seal outside the game rift isrgely targeted at the phantom shadow rat. We need to open the seal first before we can bring it out."


    "Ah, this...This is a seal set up by the Holy Court and the Federation..."


    Aktu''s face turned bitter when he heard this.


    How could the holy seal left behind by the Holy Court''s oracle be so easily undone?


    He thought that he finally saw a glimmer of hope on the other side of the game rift but in the blink of an eye, it seemed like it was going to be destroyed again.


    "It''s not a big problem. After all, it''s been such a long time ago. Arge portion of the seal has already decayed. Moreover, we still have the help of the phantom shadow rat on the other side."


    Fang Heng felt that it was not a big problem and nodded at Aktu.


    Aktu took a few steps back, leaving enough space for Fang Heng.


    He couldn''t help but feel doubtful.


    Was this for real?


    How could the seal left behind by the Holy Court''s oracle be broken so easily?


    "Whoosh!"


    Fang Heng flicked his wrist, and the Book of Oaths floated in front of him.


    The holy magic array that the oracle had set up with the help of the holy weapon seal was extremely strong.


    With his current ability, he could not break it in a short period of time.


    However, he also had a holy weapon!


    Moreover, it was effective against such things!


    Swoosh...


    Fang Heng poured his spiritual power into the Book of Oaths.


    Absorb!


    The Book of Oaths emitted a faint light.


    Under the influence of the Book of Oaths, dark golden specks gradually appeared on the magic array outside the game rift.


    The specks quickly fused into the Book of Oaths and were absorbed, turning into energy within the Book of Oaths.


    As the energy within the sealing magic array gradually dissipated, the magic array''s operating speed gradually slowed down.


    "It really works?!"


    Aktu looked at the scene before him in shock.


    When he saw Fang Heng using the Holy Court move in the game, he felt that it was a little strange.


    No matter how one looked at it, it looked like a move from the Holy Court.


    Now...


    He could even remove the seal left behind by the Holy Court?


    "Swoosh, swoosh..."


    The magic array in Fang Heng''s right pupil spun rapidly.


    At the same time, the phantom shadow rat on the other side of the game rift also sensed that the seal''s power was being consumed. It released the ck fog with all its might.


    "Chi, chi chi..."


    The ck fog continued to seep out of the magic seal, elerating the corrosion of the magic seal!


    As the three stacked together, the power of the sealing magic array left behind by the Holy Court was rapidly consumed!


    In fact, over the past few years, the pollution aura that the phantom shadow rat had been releasing had been corroding the sealing magic array in the outside world.


    It was basically suppressed by the holy seal.


    Other than the holy seal, the rest of the seals had already been corroded.


    As long as the holy seal was removed, the rest could be forcefully broken through!


    Fang Heng was excited.


    At this speed, it would take at most an hour to break through all the magic arrays!


    With the help of the phantom shadow rat, it was not impossible for them to escape from the Federation''s siege.


    ...


    Outside the encampment of the Mundt Gang, the Federation''s military hadpletely upied the area of the City of Darkness and hadpletely surrounded the entire base of the Mundt Gang.


    From outside the temporary camp area, they could see the ck fog that was constantly seeping out of the cave.


    "Commander, we have received a reply from the higher-ups regarding the incident with the Mundt Gang. The higher-ups have ordered that all personnel entering the City of Darkness area will be handled by the special event management department. The military will provide unconditional assistance."


    "Before receiving the order, you must keep the camp safe. No one is allowed to leave the City of Darkness area without permission."


    The soldier''s expression was solemn as he reported, "The special crisis task force has set up a defensive magic grid around the cave. The people around the area are being evacuated."


    When Zhou Chen and the rest of the Federation''s higher-ups heard this news, their expressions turned grave.


    The higher-ups had a huge reaction.


    Even Zhou Chen''smand authority in the military had been reced.


    None of them could even leave the City of Darkness before undergoing aplete inspection.


    It seemed that the demonic seed pollution was more terrifying than they had expected.


    Soon, a middle-aged man entered the federal camp surrounded by a group of Federation soldiers.


    Upon seeing the person who had arrived, everyone from the Federation revealed a strange expression.


    Lei Yu.


    Lei Yu was already a legendary figure in the gaming world more than ten years ago.


    After some things happened, Lei Yu epted the Federation''s amnesty and joined the Federation''s crisis management department.


    In recent years, Lei Yu had retreated behind the scenes. He didn''t expect that he would personally take action this time.


    Lei Yu had a kind face. He looked at Autolia and nodded at her gently, "Autolia, you''re here too. It''s been a long time."


    "Yeah, thest time we met was three years ago."


    At first, Autolia was a little surprised when she saw Lei Yu, but she soon understood.


    Back then, Lei Yu was one of the people who participated in the sealing of the game rift in the City of Darkness. It was reasonable for him to take charge of the overall situation as a member of the Federation.


    Lei Yu gazed around at everyone and got to the point, "Everyone, I''ve received instructions from my superiors. I''ll be in charge of this game rift pollution incident. The crisis level of this leak is considered to be the highest. Please be careful. A slight carelessness may cause our entire world to fall. We must not let our guard down."


    "Let''s go back to the tent and talk."


    Without waiting for a response, Lei Yu waved his hand and led the officers of the various departments of the Federation and the higher-ups of the Holy Court into the tent.


    Zhou Chen first recounted the battle report of the City of Darkness in detail.


    Lei Yu was silent for a moment after listening. He raised his head and said, "I was there when I first sealed the game rift. The ck fog that seeped out of the rift didn''t have any pollution aura at all. This time, I suddenly discovered pollution. There must be some kind of change inside."


    Autolia nodded and asked, "Do you think it has something to do with the Mundt Gang?"


    "I''m sure the Mundt Gang is involved."


    Lei Yu nced at the members of the Holy Court who were still setting up the holy magic array beyond the tent and nodded. He said, "I want to know everything that happened."


    Kleinman stepped forward and said, "Officer Lei, let''s start with me. From the beginning, we were only capturing a demi-human..."


    Lei Yu listened to the report of the whole matter and lowered his head to think for a moment. Then he raised his head and gazed in the direction where the ck fog was gathering beyond the tent.


    Game rift, pollution, demi-humans.


    Could there be a connection between these three?


    "Autolia, how long will it take for the holy protection magic grid to bepleted?"


    "Ten minutes."
