Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 3706: The Condition

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Fang Heng took the old notebook from his backpack and handed it forward.

The priest took the book and quickly flipped through it. His brows were tightly furrowed. He turned back and gave a slight nod to Feng Tiya behind him, but his expression instead became even more solemn.

Feng Tiya quietly nodded.

In the complete absence of guidance, and relying only on a fragmented description of godhood condensation, he had actually succeeded in condensing a godly form? It was truly a terrifying talent that made one envious.

Fang Heng sensed the change in atmosphere and asked, "What’s wrong?"

Feng Tiya was silent for a moment before slowly speaking. "Sorry. You’re right. That advancement method is indeed incomplete. In fact, it was a copied version leaked from the Sea God Temple. The copier also omitted many important details."

"Fang Heng, the fact that you were able to condense a god form under such missing steps, without any guidance, truly exceeded our expectations."

After thinking for a moment, Feng Tiya seemed to make up her mind. She stood up from the throne and walked down toward Fang Heng. She continued, "The advancement of godhood must rely on the power of the ocean. More precisely, it must be catalyzed by a special substance in the deep sea. The method you used before was, at best, just forcibly stitching fragments together. The structure is loose, and once it is struck by higher-level divine fragments, it could collapse at any time."

Fang Heng’s heart stirred.

Loose structure!

That was right!

His current god form still could not perfectly fuse the powers of hell, the undead, and divinity. It was precisely because the structure was loose that he could not maintain the stability of the three forces. Whenever he used fusion power, he did not dare go all out, fearing that too much power would cause the god form to collapse.

He had previously thought this was because the god form had not been fully condensed yet, and that simply raising its level would solve the problem.

Now it seemed that the method of condensation he had mastered also had major flaws.

"Fang Heng, come with me. I will take you somewhere."

Feng Tiya walked past Fang Heng and headed deeper into the temple.

The two sea priests exchanged glances. Both frowned, their eyes filled with confusion and worry, before respectfully following behind Feng Tiya.

They passed through the hall and arrived in front of a crystal wall at the end.

Feng Tiya placed her hand on the wall.

"Buzz..."

A spatial ripple slowly formed, and a teleportation passage appeared on the crystal surface.

A narrow corridor emerged at the other end.

"Follow me."

Feng Tiya stepped into the teleportation passage first.

The corridor walls on both sides were engraved with densely packed runes. As Fang Heng’s perception swept across them, he quickly realized he was inside a constructed spatial passage.

Without Feng Tiya leading the way, they would likely become lost within it.

At the end of the corridor was a heavy stone door.

Feng Tiya raised her hand, and the door silently opened.

Behind it was a small secret room. In the center of the room floated a blue crystal.

Fang Heng followed her inside and stared at the crystal in midair, his eyes showing a trace of surprise.

The crystal was emitting a strong psychic force.

A fluctuation of godly power!

Fang Heng turned to Feng Tiya and asked, "What is this?"

"This is the Deep Sea God Core, left behind by my ancestors."

Feng Tiya stood before the crystal and looked up at it. She said slowly, "The person secretly copied the scripture on god form condensation, but he did not know that the scripture was incomplete. The use of the Deep Sea God Core has always been passed down orally by the Sea God."

"I suspect that even if that person tried his best and had extraordinary talent, without the Deep Sea God Core, the limit of his god form would only reach the peak of a false god."

"Perhaps that is why the condensation techniques circulating outside only record up to the false god peak level."

Fang Heng nodded inwardly.

That made sense. If the later stages of god form advancement could not be cultivated no matter what, such knowledge would naturally not be passed down.

Feng Tiya then turned around and looked at Fang Heng. "Fang Heng, if you wish to condense a god form, I can lend you the Deep Sea God Core. At the same time, I can also teach you the Sea God Temple’s god form condensation method."

Fang Heng felt a stir in his heart.

So generous?

Free?

Before he could answer, the two priests stepped forward anxiously and knelt on one knee.

"Your Majesty, the god form condensation scripture has been passed down through generations of the Sea God. Only the inheritors of the Tide of Eternal Night Sea God are permitted to learn it. Please reconsider!"

"No need to say more. My decision is final."

Feng Tiya raised her hand, signaling them to step back. She looked at Fang Heng and asked, "Well?"

Heh...

Fang Heng found this somewhat amusing, like watching a sales livestream.

Putting on a performance?

The priests’ objection was sincere, but Feng Tiya had clearly anticipated it in advance, which was why she had brought them along to act out this scene.

However, it was understandable.

Handing over the Sea God race’s core inheritance and lending him the god core—it was impossible that it was truly free.

There had to be a condition.

"Feng Tiya, I would naturally be eager to learn the god form advancement method," Fang Heng said seriously. "But you must have a condition, right? Just say it. I will do my best."

"You are straightforward," Feng Tiya said with a light smile. "But there is no need to be so serious. I do have something that has troubled me for a long time, and I need your help."

"Please speak."

"The Sea God’s Trident. Have you heard of it?"

Fang Heng shook his head.

He had seen similar weapons used by god servants before, but those were likely inferior replicas.

Feng Tiya said, "That is a divine weapon passed down from my ancestors. Since the first Sea God, every generation has used the Sea God’s Trident as their core weapon, and before death, they would merge their divine power into it."

"As generations passed, the trident became stronger and stronger."

"However, long ago, during an ancient war, the Sea God’s Trident was severely damaged. By the time it reached my ancestor, its function remained, but its body could no longer be restored to its peak state."

"For many years, I have tried countless methods of repair."

Feng Tiya’s tone carried a hint of helplessness. "Unfortunately, all of them failed."

Fang Heng frowned slightly.

He was not skilled in artifact forging.

Although in academic classification, artifact forging was a branch of alchemy, and his alchemy was already max level, the Sea God’s Trident that Feng Tiya spoke of was a divine-level weapon.

The difficulty of repairing it was not small.

Moreover, Fang Heng felt that with Feng Tiya’s ability and connections, she must have already consulted many master craftsmen over the years, including those at divine-level alchemy standards.

If they could not even repair the holy weapon, then the probability of him succeeding was probably not high.
