#2805 - Black Fog

"Fang Heng, our race has been destroyed time and time again, only to be reborn from the ashes of death, nurtured by generations of breeders. Each time we return, we become stronger."

"Only one breeder can survive. He will be our new king."

Fang Heng scratched his head.

Now, he had a general understanding of the situation.

From the moment he was hunted by the Hallowed, he knew that the Ouroboros within him was likely related to Xia Xi.

So now, his situation was very dangerous, and he could be attacked by other Ouroboros at any time.

"What should I do?"

"Very good, Fang Heng. You already know how to ask your breeder for help." Xia Xi paused and continued, "Your current situation is more dangerous than you think, but it's okay, I will help you. You can go to the West District Federation."

"What for?"

"To make up for your weaknesses and completely unlock the shackles of the Beginning of Black Mist on you. You are too weak in the world outside the Black Mist and may become a breakthrough for other breeding products."

Xia Xi explained, "The Hallowed have been fighting against the Beginning of Black Mist for many years. They know better than us how to restrain the Black Mist and how to use its power. They want you to completely unlock the shackles and unlock the power of the Black Mist outside of it."

"But be careful. You should have noticed that our relationship with the Hallowed has never been good. In fact, in recent years, breeders have been hunted by the Hallowed."

"Also, there is more bad news. The Hallowed have already deployed a star map system on the planet. If your blood sample information is transmitted into the Hallowed's main system, I think the Hallowed will immediately discover your identity and launch a new hunt for you. So, I suggest you be careful this time."

Fang Heng fell silent again.

Hallowed... lock...

Because of the 'lock', the abilities in the game cannot be brought out of the game.

It has always been acknowledged that the Central Federation understands the 'lock' the most.

All abilities to unlock the 'lock' are controlled by the Central Federation.

From Xia Xi's perspective, the Hallowed have a better unlocking method.

"Is the information accurate?"

"Of course, I am very sure. Okay, this chat session is over."

"Wait! After going to the West District Federation? How do I contact you?"

"No need to contact me. You have to find a way to unlock the 'lock' yourself. If you have other ideas, you can also try them as you wish. I am just giving you a suggestion."

Fang Heng wanted to ask more questions, but Xia Xi had already closed the communication in advance.

Great.

He used to avoid Xia Xi like the plague, but now Xia Xi hung up on him first.

Fang Heng put down his phone and shook his head helplessly.

Thinking about it carefully, what Xia Xi said made sense.

In the real world, he could not exert half of his power from the game, making it easy for him to become a breakthrough for the enemy.

He had to make up for this weakness as soon as possible.

Currently, the zombie clones and the Necromancy Association were frantically transporting supplies in the world of the dead, and Gu Qingzhu was also taking advantage of the internal strife in the Federation to go to the Central Federation to gather information. He happened to be free to go to the West District Federation to see what was going on.

Also.

Remember that the Black Castle had always been focused on the Hallowed's line.

If this matter was related to the Hallowed, the Black Castle should have a lot of clues.

He could indirectly verify it from the Black Castle.

Thinking this, Fang Heng opened his phone, found Fana's contact information, and tried to call her.

The people from the Black Castle had been tracking the Hallowed's mission line, and they might know some information.

Unfortunately, Fana's phone was turned off.

The Black Castle's whereabouts were always erratic, so it was normal to not be able to contact them.

After thinking about it, Fang Heng turned to call Lao Hei.

Lao Hei was in a good mood. Hearing Fang Heng's voice, he said with a smile, "Boss Fang, thank you for your hard work. You've managed to get quite a lot of supplies. It will take some time to process them all. If we sell them too quickly, it will be difficult to get a good price. If you're in a hurry, I can advance you some funds first?"

"I'm not in a hurry. That's not why I'm calling."

"Hehe, what is it? Did you find another way to make a fortune?"

Fang Heng asked, "Lao Hei, do you know about the North District Federation?"

"Oh, I know some. Are you referring to the Star Chart Project? I didn't expect the West District Federation to be so fierce, actually implementing the Star Chart Project despite the opposition of several federations."

Lao Hei paused, with a hint of something in his voice, and asked, "What? Are you interested in the Star Chart Project too? To be honest, this job is too dangerous, and I've also heard some rumors that the West District Federation's move was instigated by the Central Federation's high-level officials. The opinions of the Federation's high-level officials are not unified, and there are considerable internal conflicts. In my opinion, this matter is not that simple."

"But if you're willing to get involved, I'm willing to risk my life to accompany you."

In fact, Lao Hei knew some inside information a week in advance, but the risk was too great, and he didn't dare to act.

"No need," Fang Heng shook his head and asked, "I heard that the West District Federation has a channel to unlock the 'lock'. I'm more interested in that."

"That... yes, it is said that the North District Federation obtained the technology from the Hallowed. Many players who are interested in this thing have already gone there. The Central Federation has always strictly controlled the 'lock' and immediately objected. Most of the information on the internet has been blocked, but those who are interested can still find it."

Fang Heng pursed his lips.

It seemed that the news about the 'lock' was correct.

"Lao Hei, I want a ticket to the West District Federation, as soon as possible."

"That's a bit difficult."

"What do you mean?"

"Civilian airline trains have all been canceled. The West District Federation's air routes have been completely blocked. All trains on various railway channels have been suspended except for a few special trains. The border has also been completely sealed off."

"You should have a way, right?"

"Hehe, indeed. The West District Federation is using the 'lock' as bait and has been recruiting reliable players. Several special trains transport players interested in unlocking the 'lock' to the West District every day."

Lao Hei paused, chuckled softly, lowered his voice, and continued, "Anyone, including wanted criminals from various countries, is welcome in the West District Federation. So, you've noticed it too, right, Fang Heng? Something's up."

"Interesting," Fang Heng pondered for a moment and asked, "So, can you get me a ticket? I want the next train."

"Of course, you've asked, so it's definitely no problem. Leave it to me."
