Chapter 3457: A TrapEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Midair.
Fang Heng and the three others flew rapidly.
They gradually approached the direction of the hell rift, where the concentration of hell power in the air grew increasingly dense.
From afar, Fang Heng had already noticed a strange sight ahead, stained red.
"Huh?"
Something felt off.
He had fought hell creatures and demonic seeds before and was fairly familiar with hell monsters. He had even learned about Hell Gates and hell summoning magic arrays from them.
But the hell passage before him was unlike any he had seen before.
It was a hell rift!
Like a tear forcibly ripped open in space.
Fang Heng immediately flew toward the position below the rift.
On the ground, large numbers of mutant worms and a few Lickers formed an Ouroboros squad, surrounding the hell passage and encircling the Mad Demons crawling out of the hell rift, killing them completely.
The Eastern Region Federation army and several vampire squads provided support further behind to prevent any survivors from escaping.
After three continuous days of heavy fire, the entire Federation’s ammunition reserves had been rapidly consumed.
"This rift is relatively small; it just appeared recently," Camu explained to Fang Heng. "Xia Xi is commanding the swarm on the front lines to resist the hell creatures."
Because Xia Xi’s mental strength was limited, she could only control a small number of Lickers and issue only low-level commands, so she was responsible for defending several large hell rifts.
"Let’s go, get closer and take a look."
Fang Heng said as he slowly descended toward the ground.
"Mr. Fang."
The Federation had detected the approaching figure through creature radar and identified him through remote monitoring as Fang Heng. He Xueyan immediately led a team out to meet him.
"I am He Xueyan, deputy commander of the Seventh Corps Command Post of the Military Department, here to receive you under orders from superiors."
Fang Heng nodded lightly, "Hello."
"The hell creatures emerging from the rift are gradually strengthening. The passage is still within controllable range for now. Mr. Fang, we have received orders from higher-ups to fully cooperate with your actions. What do you need us to do?"
"No need. Continue to guard here. I will go take a look."
"Just your small team of four?"
He Xueyan was somewhat surprised.
The accompanying soldiers all looked toward Fang Heng.
Since the hell rift opened, many top players had joined the battlefield.
Among them were some with real skill.
But under the overwhelming suppression by hell creatures, personal ability had little effect and would soon be exhausted, forcing withdrawal.
The main force dealing with the hell creatures was still the Ouroboros mutant worms.
In fact, this was the first time He Xueyan had seen mutant worms enter battle. She hadn’t known the Eastern Federation was so powerful, capable of controlling such terrifying mutant worm battalions.
The soldiers thought of mutant worms as the Eastern Federation’s SSS-level secret research.
If not for the life-or-death crisis of the hell rift, mutant worms would never be deployed.
"Follow if you want, but be careful yourself."
Fang Heng said calmly, stepping toward the hell rift.
He Xueyan furrowed her brows, waved her hand, and signaled the accompanying elite squad to line up and follow.
The Mad Demons that had just crawled out of the crimson hell rift were immediately blocked near the entrance by mutant worms and were surrounded and consumed in the center.
Sensing Fang Heng approaching, the swarm parted a passage.
Suddenly, the Mad Demons rushed toward Fang Heng.
"Watch out!"
He Xueyan reacted, firing her gun at the red Mad Demons, loudly shouting, "Cover!"
Mad Demons had also appeared in the game, short in stature, their faces covered by metal masks. Due to long suffering in hell, they had gone mad, attacking all aliens indiscriminately, and had a chance to self-destruct near death.
They were among the most common high-tier hell creatures.
For ordinary players, Mad Demons were terrifyingly strong, with extremely high agility, making them hard to hit with normal firepower.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
More than twenty Mad Demons in the front row found a gap, leapt from the mutant worm group, and pounced toward Fang Heng.
However, while still midair, they were suddenly affected by some unknown power and violently shook, suspended in the air.
"Bang! Bang bang!"
The next moment, the Mad Demons exploded midair!
Among the exploding blood and flesh, blood beads condensed and floated upward, then fell like a shower before the hell rift!
Each drop of blood carried terrifying power; once it touched flesh, it instantly triggered a lifeblood explosion.
"Boom! Boom boom boom!!"
Immediately, large numbers of Mad Demons near the passage entrance were utterly destroyed by the explosions caused by the blood.
The soldiers heard deafening explosions all around. Within seconds, the Mad Demon gathering area at the rift entrance was cleared.
For a moment, silence fell around the hell rift.
Fang Heng stepped forward and observed the deep red hell rift before him.
Thin strands of dark red aura spilled from the rift, swirling around its edges. The aura felt as if it was constantly pushing the rift wider.
Strange.
Fang Heng frowned slightly.
It seemed the force tearing open the hell rift did not come from outside, but from within hell itself.
"Follow me."
Fang Heng nodded lightly, flashed into the hell rift, and disappeared completely.
Zane and the others immediately followed.
He Xueyan frowned and adjusted her comms channel to communicate with the military command base.
"Yes, sir!"
She waved her hand, "We have received orders from the commander to enter the teleportation passage and cooperate with Mr. Fang’s operation. Let’s go, follow them."
"Yes!"
...
Blue Star Polar Region-Ice Region.
A giant, vertical eye-shaped hell rift levitated in midair.
Near the rift stood crystal buildings belonging to hidden spawns.
Large numbers of hidden reconnaissance mechanical units surrounded the area.
The scene around the hell rift was transmitted in real time to the spawn fleet monitoring channel in orbit above the galaxy.
"Report, Consul. No sign of Fang Heng so far. Mainframe analysis predicts four days remaining until the world is consumed by hell."
A spawn asked, "Consul, no news of Fang Heng all this time. Is he not coming?"
"Be patient."
The Spawn Consul watched the Ice Region through remote monitoring, his face cold. "If he does not come, then we will destroy the human world completely."
With the opening of the Eyes of Hell, the world would gradually open hell passages. Once they detected Fang Heng’s presence, they would immediately awaken the sleeping God Clan.
At that time, the God Clan would move to eliminate Fang Heng.
Of course, to ensure safety, the Consul had secretly prepared a second plan.
In extreme circumstances, he was ready to completely shatter the Eyes of Hell.
Since witnessing the reborn Ouroboros, the Spawn Consul had felt a sense of urgency.
Every time he saw Fang Heng, his strength increased at an astonishing speed.
There was little time left.
If Fang Heng did not die soon, it would be them, the spawns, who would die.
