n“This is troublesome!”

n“I didn’t expect it to be a Licker.”

nFang Heng thought to himself. He finally understood.

nNo wonder there were no ordinary zombies here.

nLickers would eat ordinary zombies when they were hungry to obtain nutrients.

nFang Heng turned his head and looked at Chen Yu, who had just stood up.

nChen Yu was still scared, so he nodded at Fang Heng.

nThe two of them tacitly did not speak.

nFor some reason, after the Lickers had completed their evolution, their visual nerves had completely degenerated and lost their function.

nHowever, correspondingly, the Lickers’ tactile and auditory nerves far surpassed that of ordinary animals.

nThey were extremely sensitive to sound!

nThe gunshot just now should have attracted many Lickers over.

nThey couldn’t stay here for long, they had to evacuate as soon as possible!

nChen Yu pointed at the entrance that led to the prison area not far away, then quickly made a few gestures to the team members.

nHe signalled the team to try not to make a sound, then quickly retreat!

nSurvival was more important, quickly retreat!

nFang Heng also didn’t dare to stay any longer.

nDealing with one Licker was already scary enough. If two or three Lickers were to appear at the same time, their entire team would probably have to die here.

nThe team carefully retreated to the first floor.

nWhat they were afraid of came true. From upstairs, the sound of friction could be heard rapidly approaching.

nFang Heng’s passive perception once again gave him a premonition of extreme danger!

n“Quick! Run!”

nFang Heng shouted.

nHe was sure that a large number of Lickers upstairs had caught up to him.

nThere was no point in continuing to remain silent!

nWhen the team members heard Fang Heng’s shout, they immediately sprinted along the road they had come from!

nBehind them, the sounds of friction coming from the pursuers were getting closer and closer.

nFang Heng’s agility attribute was twice that of an ordinary player, and his running speed was also slightly faster than the other team members.

nHe was far ahead of the other players and was the first to run to the prison’s entrance. He turned his head and looked behind him.

nNearly a dozen red Lickers were sticking close to the wall and quickly chasing after the federation players.

nFang Heng switched pistols and aimed at the Lickers, trying to slow them down.

n“Bang! Bang Bang!”

nThe Lickers were extremely agile. They relied on their high-speed movement to dodge the bullets.

nFang Heng finished firing a round of bullets, and 60-70% of them missed.

nSeeing that the last federation player at the rear was about to be caught up, Chen Yu turned his head and threw a blue flashbang backwards.

n“Buzz…”

nEar-piercing ringing sounds accompanied by intense flashes of light exploded within the group of Lickers.

nFang Heng practically lowered his head and closed his eyes.

nThe flashbang model that Chen Yu threw quickly appeared in his mind.

nGNT-200 flashbang!

nManufacturer-Meteorite Company!

nWhen detonated, it could not only emit a strong light, but also release high frequency sound waves.

nThe sound waves would affect the Lickers’ hearing for some time.

nRich federation!

nJust this flashbang alone cost 75 King of Gods’ points to purchase.

nAffected by the high frequency sound waves of the flashbang, the Lickers stood rooted to the spot.

nTaking advantage of the Lickers’ inability to move, the federal team quickly left the warehouse.

n“Bang!”

nThe door was tightly shut. A few federal team members rushed up and cooperated to once again wrap the door with iron chains.

n“Bang! Bang Bang! Bang!”

nThe Lickers were still unwilling to give up. From within the prison, the continuous sound of the door knocking could be heard.

nThe members of the federal team had cold sweat all over their foreheads. One after another, they raised their pistols and aimed at the door.

nFortunately, the prison door was hard enough.

nAfter a while, the banging sound finally faded away.

n“Phew!”

nThe members of the team let out a sigh of relief. They put down their pistols and relaxed for the time being.

nFang Heng still had a frown on his face.

nHe didn’t expect the difficulty of this mission to be so high.

nThe Tier 2 mutated zombies were already very difficult to deal with, but the Lickers they encountered were the most difficult to deal with!

nFang Heng didn’t remember to count carefully just now. He roughly estimated that there were at least ten Lickers!

n“Our mission is going to be troublesome. The Lickers are too powerful. It’s too difficult to deal with them at this stage.”

nChen Yu panted heavily and walked over to discuss with Fang Heng.

nEven now, his heart was still pounding furiously.

n“Their movement speed is too fast. Not to mention using a crossbow, even if we use a gun, our accuracy is very low. If we want to complete the mission, we have to think of another way.”

n“Okay.”

nFang Heng leaned against the wall and fell into deep thought.

nOf course, he understood what Chen Yu was saying.

nHe had just personally experienced using a pistol to attack the Licker.

nEven if he had 15 points of high perception, he could only hit 5 out of 15 bullets.

nMoreover, the damage dealt by the pistol to the Licker wasn’t high. A few simple attacks wouldn’t be able to deal fatal damage to it.

nAgainst the Licker, the vine zombie was no match for it.

nThe Licker’s powerful strength attribute allowed it to directly use the vine zombie’s entanglement skill.

nFang Heng closed his eyes and quickly recalled the Licker’s weakness.

nChen Yu also felt a headache coming on. The difficulty of this mission was much more difficult than what was recorded in the original information of the federation!

nAt this stage, it was impossible for a player to deal with so many Lickers.

nIt was the same for the federation.

nHow could he persuade Fang Heng to give up this mission?

nChen Yu thought for a moment and persuaded, “Fang Heng, why don’t we give up? After some time, when our weapons and equipment are ready…”

nFang Heng suddenly opened his eyes.

n“The Lickers’ visual nerves have deteriorated. They rely on their strong hearing to determine their location. We can think of a way to make use of this.”

n“Oh?”

nChen Yu was stunned again.

nHe thought along with Fang Heng’s words and his eyes lit up.

n“I understand. Are you saying that we should try our best not to make any noise and sneak into the gun room on the second floor to get the magnetic card without being discovered by the Lickers?”

nFang Heng waved his hand.

n“Don’t even think about it. It’s the game’s usual routine. The door to the second floor gun room is most likely locked from the inside.”

n“If we want to go in, we will have to break the door. The sound of breaking the door will attract the lickers. This is a dead end.”

n“Uh…”

nChen Yu was at a loss for words.

nHe felt that what Fang Heng said made a lot of sense.

n“Unfortunately, the higher-ups only have one flashbang for emergency use. We just used it up. Why don’t I go back and request for two more from the higher-ups?”

n“We can take advantage of the short-term stun caused by the flashbang to buy time and take the magnetic card from the gun room on the second floor.”

nChen Yu felt that this was the most likely way to complete the mission.

nHe did not expect Fang Heng to decisively reject it once again.

n“No, it will take too long to apply to the federation. It will take at least two to three days to go back and forth. Moreover, whether the federation approves it or not is another matter. The effects of the two flashbangs are limited and the risk is too great.”

nHearing what Fang Heng said, Chen Yu was a little speechless.

nEven if he knew that there were a large number of Lickers in Prison No. 1, would he still think that two to three days was too slow?

nTwo to three days? He would be thankful if he could complete the mission!

nThe members of the federal team who were listening to the conversation between the two big shots at the side all had the same thoughts.

nThey could not figure out Fang Heng’s train of thought.

nFang Heng stroked his chin as if there was no one else around, thinking carefully.

nHe slowly took a few steps back and turned his head to look at the ‘hills’ of logs in the prison square.

nA plan gradually formed in Fang Heng’s mind.
