Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2615  Ice Demon

Kotal quickly translated Fang Heng's words to Tigranth.

After hearing them, Tigranth did not express any opposition. He nodded and said something to Kotal.

The shattered will of the Empress was of no use to them.

If that was all there was, their journey, undertaken at such great risk, would have been meaningless.

What truly intrigued them was what the Empress had hidden within the ice soul.

Hidden something?!

Upon hearing this, Kotal narrowed his eyes, quickly turning to look at the ice soul.

"Look at that."

Commander Tigranth, with a solemn expression, extended his hand and pointed toward the ice soul.

Fang Heng roughly understood Tigranth's last statement and, following the direction Tigranth was pointing, furrowed his brow.

The ice soul appeared as a somewhat chaotic white, and within the white, there seemed to be a shadow.

Fang Heng immediately understood.

There was something within the ice soul!

Tigranth turned his head again and spoke a lengthy sentence to the group.

Fang Heng urged, "Kotal, what did he say?"

Kotal's face grew serious as he quietly explained to Fang Heng, "Fang Heng, the Commander believes there is something within the ice soul. Combined with the shattered will of the Empress surrounding the ice soul, he suspects that something is sealed within by Empress Persephone."

Fang Heng felt as if something had struck him. He looked back at the shattered will of the Empress.

Indeed! Tigranth was right!

The three remnants of the Empress's will were slowly swirling around the ice soul.

Their target was what had been sealed inside the ice soul?

What could it be?

Fang Heng observed for a moment longer and then asked, "It's hard to see what it is just like this. Is there any way to break open the ice soul and take a look?"

"It's very difficult to do that," Kotal replied gravely. "And we can't even be sure what's inside the ice soul. If the Empress sealed something dangerous..."

As the two were discussing this, Tigranth suddenly spoke to the group, slowly placing his hand on the long sword at his waist.

"Fang Heng, be careful! Step back!"

Kotal pulled Fang Heng back.

"Slash!"

Tigranth's long sword swiftly cut through the air.

Whoosh!!

The sword cleaved the air with a dark flash.

Bang!!!

Almost simultaneously, the ice soul emitted a muffled thud.

The impact caused the ice soul to immediately send out a visible ripple of frost.

A cold, chilling aura blasted outward!

Two Dark Clan guards immediately stepped in front of Fang Heng, their shields quickly coating with a layer of frost. They were immediately knocked back by the force, stumbling from the impact.

Fang Heng also felt the aftershock of the wave, taking a small step backward.

Looking up, he saw that the surface of the ice soul had formed a narrow crack under Tigranth's attack. A colder, more intense chill spilled out from the crack.

It seemed to be working?

Fang Heng mused to himself.

At least Tigranth's attack had made an impact this time!

With enough repeated strikes, the outer layer of the ice soul could surely be shattered completely.

But the next moment, several cold, sinister auras began to leak from the crack in the ice soul.

The auras gathered in the air and condensed into white, ethereal forms, which howled as they rushed toward the group!

"Watch out! It's the Extreme Cold Ice Demons!"

Kotal's face turned pale at the sight, and he quickly pulled Fang Heng backward.

Commander Tigranth roared, charging forward with his team to intercept the Extreme Cold Ice Demons emerging from the ice soul.

Fang Heng followed Kotal, retreating toward the entrance of the cavern. His stone slab was already covered in a thin layer of ice crystal, but he could still make out its contents.

Looking down, a dense stream of warning messages immediately appeared on the stone slab.

Extreme Cold Ice Demons!

A special variant of the Ice Witches, these creatures, enhanced by both the frost environment and the death realm, were nearly at demigod level in power!

Tigranth and his team were among the top-tier forces in the death realm. Having prepared for battle, they immediately moved to support and defend Fang Heng, forming a barrier behind them.

Seizing this opportunity, Fang Heng continued to study the information appearing on the stone slab.

The Ice Witches possessed the ice storm skill and a special ability that directly harmed soul bodies, causing a wide-area soul freeze. These abilities were extremely difficult to handle. Of course, if the player's soul strength was high enough, they could be immune to some of the damage from the Ice Witches.

The biggest weakness of the enemies was Underworld Fire!

Fang Heng's eyelids twitched as he saw the mention of Underworld Fire. He looked up at the eight Ice Witches emerging from the ice soul, then raised a finger, pointing at the Ice Witches and the ice soul behind them.

The gesture was clear.

He was asking the undead council for information about the ice soul.

The high-level members of the undead council were quickly receiving data regarding the Ice Witches, having hurriedly gathered all the relevant information and transmitted it to Fang Heng. As they observed Fang Heng's actions, they exchanged looks and let out bitter smiles.

This kid!

His progress in exploring the death realm was way too fast!

They had no idea what this massive ice crystal was!

Such things didn't exist in other realms, and they were completely clueless.

"Report!"

An assistant approached the instructors and council members, bowing to report, "We've just found some relevant clues from the Empress'vv tomb records and translated them."

Georgi carefully examined the file and his expression subtly changed. His divine aura couldn't be contained, and he grew somewhat excited, "Quickly! Immediately send this intelligence to Fang Heng!"

"And, continue translating all the information related to the ice soul. Get it done as soon as possible!"

"Understood!"

...

In the underground space, Fang Heng waited for a long time before more information finally appeared on the stone slab.

"Fang Heng, based on the ancient texts you retrieved from the Empress' mausoleum, we've translated part of the information. From this, we can confirm that the Empress indeed condensed the power of ice crystals here."

"This temple was personally constructed by the Empress along with her elite guards. The Empress left behind some messages, and she did leave something here."

"This particular term has been difficult to translate, but for now, we believe it could mean something like strength, inheritance, or mission."

Fang Heng's pupils suddenly contracted.

Good gracious! Inheritance!

No wonder the three fragments of the Empress' will were lingering here!

"We are still working on translating all the information related to the ice soul. We're trying to find a way to break open the ice soul and retrieve whatever is inside. However, Fang Heng, based on what we've learned so far, the ice soul has the ability to freeze souls. This power will block most resurrection abilities, making it extremely dangerous. Please, do not attempt to force it."

Fang Heng nodded slightly as he read the information on the stone slab, then looked up at the ice soul again.

He definitely wouldn't force things.

But since they were already here, he would still attempt to break open the ice crystal.

The Empress' inheritance—whatever it was—could not be abandoned.
