#2834 - against
Fang Heng looked at the game prompt.
After upgrading to the Master level, Mind Control not only increased basic attributes but also gained a special Mind Manipulation skill.
It could subtly influence the target's favorability.
It could even be actively released to temporarily confuse and control the target.
Not bad.
Fang Heng lowered his head and checked the exchangeable items on the ship again.
The Grandmaster-level Mind Control was still in the exchangeable list.
There was still one exchange quota available.
However, the price was so shocking that even he was taken aback.
A full 5 billion!
He was still quite short on contribution points.
After estimating, if the entire mining area was completely refined, he should barely be able to gather enough.
It would also cost a lot of Mind Stones to max out the Master-level Mind Control.
Just find a few more and grind for a while.
Since I'm here, I'll spend two days maxing out Mind Control first!
......
Five minutes later, Captain Zoran watched Fang Heng leave the cabin using the teleportation channel.
Beside him, a soldier stepped forward and nodded, saying, "It has been verified that he exchanged for an academic advancement book for Master-level Mind Control."
What?
Master level!?
Zoran's pupils suddenly contracted.
It should be known that among players, those who can raise their academics to the Master level are rare.
This kid!
Awesome!
But in such a short period of time, where did he get so many contribution points?
The soldier explained, "We have investigated. In addition to a large portion of kill contributions, Fang Heng and his team provided a large number of S-grade Mind Stones, earning a lot of points and contribution points."
Zoran couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
"Has Fang Heng's identity been thoroughly investigated?"
"Yes, we have investigated Fang Heng's identity. There is no problem with his background. It is said that he saved the life of a councilor's granddaughter on the train to the Western District Federation, so the Guard Department specially approved him to be a member of the Starmap Project."
"Hmm..."
Zoran grunted lightly.
Being able to gather so many contribution points in a short period of time is inseparable from the newly discovered mining area, in addition to Fang Heng's own strength.
Perhaps they were extremely lucky and discovered a few rich mining points.
For Zoran, this was good news.
If Fang Heng could earn a lot of contribution points, they could also lie down and reap a lot of benefits, earning a lot of price difference as middlemen.
It's just that person...
As he spoke, a blue space teleportation light flashed.
A middle-aged man wearing a wide cowboy hat walked out of the teleportation channel, waved to Zoran, "Captain Zoran, I'm back. I just saw it was quite lively down there."
"Joachim."
Zoran looked at the person and thought, what you fear comes to pass.
Joachim was the leader of the mercenary group. His personal strength was not as good as Acrylic, but the overall strength of the team was very strong, and he was unscrupulous in his actions.
"Captain, I heard that a newcomer has come here. He seems to be very powerful. Even Chloe was killed by him?"
"That's right, he just left."
"Is that so? I heard that he also discovered a new Mind Stone mining area? The resource reserves of that mining area are very good?"
Zoran did not answer, but looked at Joachim and said, "I know what you want to ask. I don't recommend you take action against him."
"Oh?" Joachim raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the reason?"
"They have already successfully occupied the mining point and are proceeding smoothly. Your intervention will cause unnecessary conflicts and bring unnecessary trouble to the Starmap Project. This is what I don't want to see."
"Captain, you are as rigid as ever."
Joachim smiled and said, "I think that if I can help, the mining of ore can be smoother and better serve the Western District Federation, isn't it?"
"You can do whatever you want. The ship will not provide you with any convenience. Also, I remind you, Joachim, no matter who your backstage is, if your actions endanger the Starmap Project, I will not let you go."
"Whatever, I'll go first, Captain."
Joachim shrugged, waved his hand, and said goodbye.
He didn't take Zoran's warning to heart.
In Joachim's view, Captain Zoran was just an old-fashioned man.
Before coming here, he had already contacted Chloe in advance.
As long as he could kill Fang Heng, Chloe promised to provide him with more help in the subsequent game.
In addition, he could also take the ore field into his hands.
Killing two birds with one stone, why not?
While thinking, a subordinate walked to Joachim's ear and whispered a few words.
"Heh... continue talking."
Joachim listened to the intelligence information collected by his subordinates, sneered, and couldn't help but mutter in his heart.
Even Acrylic was defeated by that person.
And it sounds like the other party killed Acrylic very easily.
It seems that the other party is very powerful...
Tsk tsk tsk...
They are just a group of simple-minded and well-developed brutes.
In a head-on confrontation, Joachim felt that he would definitely lose.
But he could think of other ways.
Joachim thought for a moment, and a hint of coldness appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Remember the thing we found before?"
The subordinate's heart trembled when he heard the words, and he whispered, "Captain, are you referring to the mutated alien insect eggs?"
"That's right, the reason why this group of people can avoid the attacks of the burrowing sand locusts is likely to be by using some kind of special aura shielding. I would like to see if they can still shield the aura of the alien insect eggs."
Joachim looked at his subordinates, his eyes revealing a bit of viciousness, and ordered, "Didn't they find Wayne's people and let them help with the work? You are very familiar with Wayne's subordinates. Find a chance to implant the insect eggs into their bodies. When the time comes, someone will naturally help us deal with Boss Fang..."
......
After Fang Heng advanced to the Master level in Mind Control, he once again led everyone back to the central forest of the desert. After a few arrangements, he hurriedly entered the cave to retreat and cultivate his Mind Control level.
The outside world was handed over to Zaka and the others, as well as Acrylic and his few vampire confidants.
As the number of zombie clones gradually increased and a large number of engineering shovels were quickly acquired, the efficiency of the entire mining area was qualitatively improved again.
Fang Heng also had to optimize the ore sorting process again.
After the ore was excavated by the zombie clones, it was transported out of the cave in carts, and then sorted in batches by Wayne and his party of players, and then hung on the backs of the mutated Lickers with ropes, and pulled back into the depths of the forest by the Lickers again.
After becoming familiar with the process, until now, Wayne felt that his scalp was numb.
Good heavens!
It turned out that the terrifying monsters seen in the desert before were Boss Fang's summons!
Boss Fang can even use summoned creatures to pull loose ore!
