“Thank you! ” Xiao Ruoruo thanked him gratefully. “Fang Heng, what books are you looking for? I’ve read most of the books here. I can help. ” Fang Heng was a little surprised. He turned his head to look at Xiao Ruoruo. “Really? You’ve read all of them? ” “Mhm… ” Xiao Ruoruo lowered her head. “It’s just that I didn’t understand a few… ” “I’m looking for books related to potionology. Can you help me? ” “Yes. I remember there are three books related to potionology. ” “You also know about potionology? ” “A little. Potionology is a branch of Occult, and it’s also related to the production of alchemy powder. ” Xiao Ruoruo was a little shy. She walked to the other side of the bookshelf. “But potionology and alchemy are two different branches. Alchemy focuses on stimulating the characteristics of a single drug and purifying it. ” “Oh… ” Fang Heng casually agreed, indicating that he didn’t understand it at all. Xiao Ruoruo walked to the side of the bookshelf, stood on her tiptoes, and took out two books from the bookshelf. “Strange, there should be another one… why can’t I find it… ” Xiao Ruoruo looked for a while and muttered softly. Ahem. “It’s okay. Two books are enough. ” Fang Heng thought to himself that the remaining book was still in District 8 and he had had no time to bring it back. Walking forward, Fang Heng took the two books from Xiao Ruoruo’s hands. With a flick of his wrist, one of the books disappeared without a trace. “Eh? That’s amazing! How did brother you do that, Fang Heng? ” Xiao Ruoruo widened her eyes, her face full of curiosity. “Shh. ” Fang Heng raised a finger and carefully looked outside the door. “It’s just a little magic trick. Don’t tell Butler Sun. ” … “The operation was a complete failure. ” After reading the latest situation report, Kou Huai, the person in charge of District 7 of the Federation, put the report on his hand down and lowered his head to think. He did consider that Fang Heng might win, but he didn’t expect that Fang Heng would win so easily! Throughout the entire battle, Fang Heng and his zombies didn’t even show up. They easily defeated the army alliance of District 7’s gaming unions. The strength of the player guilds in District 7 was definitely not weak! From the report, the overall strength of the Scavenger Army in Edge Creek Town had increased explosively. Everything was related to Fang Heng. Kou Huai was silent. He felt a huge pressure. Kou Huai had never thought that he would feel such a huge pressure from a single player. “I’ll never allow Server 7’s main storyline to be taken away! ” In order to obtain the final ownership of Server 7, Kou Huai had put in over ten years’ worth of effort! He would never allow anyone to snatch the fruit of victory from his hands. Kou Huai’s index finger lightly pressed on the table, clearly treating Fang Heng as a true opponent. “Cheng Ya, you’ve been helping Fang Heng transport medicinal ingredients during the day, right? ” Cheng Ya was suddenly called to report to her superiors, and she couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. “Yes, Sir. ” “What happened after that? What did Fang Heng do after the medicinal ingredients were transported into the warehouse? ” “The Scavenger Army guards the warehouse very vigilantly. It’s very difficult to go in and investigate… ” Cheng Ya paused for a moment and thought of something. “Continue. ” “Yesterday, Roche was preparing to launch a surprise attack on the players’ shelter in Edge Creek Town at night, but was stopped by Fang Heng. In the morning, Roche brought a few people to the warehouse. After coming out, he became very excited and immediately led the Scavenger Army out. ” Upon hearing that, Kou Huai understood that the key was to cut off the supply of medicinal ingredients. It was likely that Fang Heng relied on the medicinal ingredients he obtained from the Federation and somehow increased the overall strength of the Scavenger Army using them. Kou Huai felt a little displeased as he was the one who provided that batch of medicinal ingredients to Fang Heng. He didn’t expect that Fang Heng would use those very ingredients to deal with the players. “Indulging in an enemy is indeed asking for trouble! ” he thought. Kou Huai raised his head and asked, “Ah Chen, how much more ingredients are scheduled for delivery to Fang Heng? ” The Federation soldier who was recording notes at the side flipped through the list and reported, “Sir, about half of the medicinal ingredients haven’t been delivered yet. ” “Stop the supply of Fang Heng’s medicinal ingredients immediately. ” “Yes! ” The soldier asked, “As for the superiors… ” “Recently, the strength of the Scavenger Army in the game has increased greatly. Division 7 has temporarily entered a state of alert. There is an ingredient shortage. Tell the superiors and Fang Heng that we need more time to prepare this batch of medicinal ingredients. ” “Understood! ” Kou Huai looked at Cheng Ya again. “And you, stop helping Fang Heng deliver the medicinal ingredients immediately. In addition, I need you to keep an eye on Fang Heng’s movements 24 hours a day in the game. Report immediately if there are any special situations. ” “Yes! ” “Also, tell me the exact coordinates of the place where the Dark Knights have gathered the ingredients at. ” Cheng Ya was startled. Raising her head and meeting Kou Huai’s gaze, she sensed that Kou Huai must have sensed a threat. She thought, “Now, the Federation also wants us to attack Fang Heng secretly! ” “Edge Creek Town area 54189, 27111. ” “Go. Keep an eye on Fang Heng. ” “Understood! ” After Cheng Ya left, Kou Huai shifted his gaze to the Federation soldier next to him. “It’s not convenient for us to act. Leak the news of Fang Heng and the Dark Knights to Tao Yunlei. He’ll know what to do. ” … “Fang Heng, I’m sorry. I’m very sorry. We received orders from superiors to stop supplying the medicinal ingredients promised to you for now. The reason is that the Scavenger Army’s strength has greatly increased in a short period of time, hence posing a threat to the safety of the people of District 7, requiring the district to enter a state of emergency. Once things return to normal, we will immediately supply you with medicinal ingredients. ” “Hmm… Emergency… ” Fang Heng did not doubt it when he heard it, but he was a little apprehensive in his heart. “Why’s the Federation reacting so quickly this time? Is it because the Federation’s commander-in-chief of District 7 has a very strong operational ability? Without the supply of medicinal ingredients from them, it’s equivalent to missing out on a large number of contribution points I can get from potion making! ” he mused. “In addition, we need to keep an eye on the Scavenger Army’s movements 24 hours a day. We can’t continue to help you transport the goods. ” “Oh? Do you not want the divine potion anymore? ” “We are also in a difficult position because of the orders given by our superiors. ” “Forget it. ” Fang Heng spread his hands and took out a bottle of low-tier divine potion and threw it to Cheng Ya. “You’ve worked hard the whole day. I’ll give you the reward. Let’s work together again in the future if there’s a chance to. ” Cheng Ya and the other two Federation players looked at one another. They had never thought that Fang Heng would still give them the reward. “Thank you. ” “No problem. ” Fang Heng waved his hand. He did not care about the fact that Cheng Ya and the others could not continue to help. After all, he could not always rely on Cheng Ya to deliver the potions, and most importantly, Cheng Ya and the other two were not all that efficient. He had greatly overestimated them. Based on their current efficiency, the three of them would probably need a week to finish delivering the goods. To improve the situation, Fang Heng had a new plan. As he was thinking, the sound of a truck horn sounded in the distance.
