Chapter 2140 Being Fooled
Soon, Fang Heng and the other met Mr. Yule in the town’s garden.
When Yule saw Fang Heng, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, “Messengers of nature, how is the mission given to you by the tree spirits? Did you run into some trouble? If you need the help of the Tree Whisperers Alliance, please don’t stand on ceremony.”
“No, we have successfully completed the mission assigned by the tree spirits, but we didn’t receive any reinforcements from the tree spirits.” Fang Heng looked at Yule and asked, “What did the tree spirits say to you? They won’t be here today, will they?”
Mr. Yule’s eyes flashed with doubt as he questioned, “Are the tree spirits coming today? I didn’t receive any news.”
Fang Heng frowned.
According to the original plan, they would meet up with the tree spirits after obtaining the Water of Life and return to the town together.
The tree spirits were nowhere to be seen?
“Mr. Yule, do you know how to find the tree spirits?”
Yule shook his head and replied, “I’m not sure. You came back too quickly. The tree spirits did mention to me that they would take action tonight. I thought you would take action together and return to the town together…”
“Ding dong ding dong…”
As he spoke, his phone rang.
Fang Heng took out his phone. Seeing that it was Mo Jiawei, he immediately picked up the call.
“Hello? Fang Heng, I just heard that OmniTech Company’s central research institute is in big trouble. It’s said that they discovered the infiltration of the tree spirits. It seems that they have already started fighting there.”
What?
Fang Heng’s eyelids twitched.
“F*ck, we’ve been scammed!” On the other end of the phone, Mo Jiawei was so angry that he wanted to curse, “If you ask me, the tree spirits didn’t even think of coming to pick us up. They wanted us to come and act as a distractor!”
Fang Heng immediately understood.
The plan of the tree spirits was actually very simple.
Their goal was not the so-called ‘Water of Life’.
Given that the company was focusing its efforts on pursuing and capturing Fang Heng, the tree spirit race intentionally led Fang Heng to OmniTech Company and exposed him to the company, aiming to attract support from OmniTech Company personnel,
Taking advantage of this opportunity, they would choose to launch an attack on OmniTech Company’s central research institute, which was under weak defense!
It was a classic diversion.
So…
The so-called Water of Life was completely useless!
Now that he thought about it, Mo Jiawei was too lucky. By coincidence, they accidentally entered the high-level experimental area of OmniTech Company’s building. Then, they decisively acted two hours ahead of time, completely disrupting the deployment of the tree spirits.
Fang Heng couldn’t help but feel angry.
What a joke.
He was completely fooled by the tree spirits.
The most infuriating thing was not that he had wasted his time going to the research institute. Instead, he wasted two days.
The tree spirits could have just asked him to go to the North District’s central research institute!
Why did he have to do so much nonsense?
Was it because they didn’t trust him?
Or was it prejudice against the other races?
Fang Heng retracted the sharpness in his eyes.
He needed to calm down and think about how to recover his losses and maximize his benefits.
“Okay, I understand. You might be in danger. Come back as soon as possible.”
Fang Heng hung up the phone. He looked at Mr. Yule and asked, “Mr. Yule, we received news that the tree spirits seem to be attacking the central research institute of OmniTech Company in the North District. Are you really unaware of this?”
“Central research institute? Why did they go there?” Puzzlement flashed across Yule’s eyes as he recalled, “But I did collect some information about the central research institute in the past…”
As he spoke, a member of the Tree Whisperers Alliance hurried over and whispered a few words into Mr. Yule’s ear.
Yule’s expression turned extremely stiff.
“What happened?”
“The tree spirits have sent a warning message to the outside world. They are attacking the central research institute and gathering all the forces of the Tree Whisperers Alliance nearby to provide support.”
Yule’s expression became extremely grave as he spoke. He continued, “Nothing like this has ever happened before. It seems that the tree spirits are in big trouble.”
[Hint: The player has triggered an emergency mission-the rescue message from the tree spirits.]
Mission title: Rescue message from the tree spirits.
Mission requirements: You have received an emergency rescue request from the tree spirits from the Tree Whisperers Alliance. Perhaps, you can head to the designated location to help the tree spirits.
Mission reward: Tree spirit affinity.
Estimated remaining time of the mission: 4 hours and 20 minutes (This remaining time is an estimated time and may change due to various events).
[Hint (triggered by the player’s reward): The player is advised to provide support to the tree spirits.]
“Idiot…”
Fang Heng looked at the game notification and could not help but curse in his heart.
Judging from the attitude of the tree spirits, the subsequent mission would only become more and more troublesome.
Fang Heng was even a little suspicious of the mission rewards he had received previously. The system had prompted him to take the most optimal mission chain route.
Forget it.
He didn’t want to think too much.
In short, he finally understood that the tree spirit race was a scam.
If he couldn’t follow the game’s hints completely, he would be stepping into a huge pit if he placed all his hopes on the tree spirits.
He had to make preparations in advance.
However, there was no need to give up on the mission.
He would go over and take a look first.
The good news was that he had the highest level of the vampire’s bat form, so it would only take him more than half an hour to rush to the mission location.
He hoped he could make it in time!
Fang Heng nodded to Cleriway and said, “Cleriway, I’ll go to the central research institute of the OmniTech Company. You stay here and be careful. Remember to look after the branch of the sacred tree.”
“Yes, alright.”
Fang Heng nodded and changed into his vampire bat form before flying into the distance.
More than half an hour.
He hoped he could make it in time!
…
OmniTech Company’s central research institute.
It was a high-level weapons experimental research institute jointly funded by OmniTech Company and the Federation.
A few kilometers around the research institute were included in the scope of the campus. The Federation was in charge of daily security. Outsiders were prohibited from entering and leaving on weekdays, and the security was especially strict.
In his bat form, Fang Heng hovered above the research institute’s campus and looked down.
A high-altitude area in front of him was filled with a high-intensity electromagnetic barrier.
Below him, some of the spatial fluctuations were slowly gathering.
A large number of mechanical creatures guarded the entire outer area of the research institute, and there was even a large number of large-scale war machines.
On the other side were the tree spirits.
Just like the elves, the tree spirits were talented in archery.
With the help of nature spells, the tree spirits could shoot accurately from a long distance, exploding the half-condensed space transition light spots in mid-air.
