If he could think of a way to completely lure them out and kill them together...

The mutant crystals that would drop would be enough for him to level up.

Fang Heng was excited and continued to explore.

The surface of the lake was wider than he had expected. Furthermore, he had to be careful of the mutated birds that occasionally appeared in the air.

After flying at a low speed for nearly ten minutes, he still did not see the other side. Instead, an orange-yellow barrier appeared.

Eh?

A spell barrier?!

Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately flew toward the barrier.

What was that?

As he flew closer, Fang Heng frowned.

An oval-shaped island appeared in the middle of the lake.

The island had a diameter of about two kilometers and was covered with green vegetation. The yellow barrier on the periphery was protecting the entire island.

Fang Heng could not feel any mana fluctuations from the barrier.

"It's more like a technological energy barrier."

Fang Heng thought about it and decided to fly higher up into the sky. He flew above the island and observed the situation of the island through the yellow barrier.

It looked like an uninhabited island.

Would there be high-tier creatures on the island?

Fang Heng's eyes swept to the center of the island, and his pupils constricted.

In the middle of the island, there was a strange protruding building.

There were three obelisks outside the building!

They were related to the alien spawns!

Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat.

Different from the obelisk beside the teleportation passage, the top of the obelisk here was round.

The circular area at the top was also emitting a faint yellow light.

It seemed that the yellow barrier that enveloped the island was released by them together.

As he was observing, a notification appeared in Fang Heng's vision.

[Hint: The player has discovered traces of a mausoleum. The player's current mission completion rate has increased to 25%, please continue to explore.]

It was indeed related to the mission!

Let's see if he could enter the barrier!

Fang Heng lowered his altitude and tried to get closer.

"Pfft... Chi chi!"

Before Fang Heng could even get close, he felt a stimulating electric current fluctuation.

It seemed to be a warning to prevent invasion.

"Not good."

Fang Heng whispered and retreated again.

Then try to destroy it!

Fang Heng retreated far enough, took out a high-energy bomb from his pocket, and threw it at the yellow barrier in the distance.

"Boom!!!"

The high-energy bomb exploded after landing on the yellow barrier!

The shockwave from the explosion even pushed Fang Heng back several meters!

In his bat form, Fang Heng flapped his wings and stabilized himself.

In the distance, the yellow barrier was still intact.

"Chi, chi chi..."

The mutated forms that were originally hiding at the bottom of the lake were stirred up by the impact of the explosion. They all poked their heads out to observe the outside world.

The defensive ability of the barrier was extremely strong, and it covered the water directly.

If he went down to investigate rashly, he might be dragged into the water by the underwater creatures.

The risk of forcefully entering the yellow barrier was too high.

He had to think of another way.

Perhaps...

That's right!

Fang Heng pondered and suddenly had a good idea. He immediately flew back the way he came.

.....

In the forest area south of the federal base, the roads in this area were rugged and difficult to traverse. Mutated forms often appeared in the forest so ordinary players rarely chose to explore there.

In the center of the forest, there was a mine that had not been discovered by the Federation.

Starfish Company started mining as soon as they found the mine.

It was not that simple to mine. There were often crimson mutated cave spiders emerging from the depths of the mine.

Starfish Company was not a small company, so they were naturally prepared.

The players guarded the exit area. Once a mutated spider appeared, the players would immediately attack it.

In the mining area, the players in charge of the excavation work were mining the cosmic crystals that had been initially collected and quickly packing them into boxes.

Hector was personally in charge of the mining work.

From his initial judgment, this world's cosmic crystal reserves were very ordinary.

However, there was less competition.

There were not many player companies that had the ability to enter this world to mine.

After preliminary mining and inspection, they found that the quality of the crystal ore was acceptable.

This deal was a sure win.

Currently, there were a total of three confirmed cosmic crystal mines nearby.

Hector calculated the progress of the project.

Time was tight.

They had the advantage in the early stages. They took advantage of the time when the Federation had yet to gain a foothold in dealing with mutated forms to make use of Fang Heng's teleportation passage to quickly make a profit.

The mining work had to be carried out in secret.

If they were discovered by the Federation, the other party would definitely obstruct their mining operation in secret.

However, Starfish Company was currently facing a shortage of manpower.

No matter how he calculated, there was not enough time for the exploitation.

At this moment, Fang Heng entered the mine under the guidance of an employee of Starfish Company.

"Hey, Fang Heng? Why did you think of coming here? I thought you weren't interested in ores."

When Hector saw Fang Heng, he laughed and went forward to welcome him.

"How is it? Join our mining team and do something big together! Your Licker is very useful. It can help us explore a wider world and find more ore resources."

He really wanted to pull Fang Heng into the team.

Lickers could adapt to all kinds of difficult terrain.

Moreover, it was a summoned creature, hence there wouldn't be any heartache when it died.

Not to mention Fang Heng's personal strength.

With Fang Heng joining, many problems would be easily solved.

Fang Heng shook his head gently and said, "I won't steal your business. I have something urgent to discuss with you, so I need to borrow someone from you."

"Hey, it's not like we're fighting for business. Let's make the cake bigger, and everyone will make a profit," said Hector, waving his hand generously. "It's no problem to borrow people. How much do you want? I'll arrange it for you."

"One is enough, Lu Yanlong."

Fang Heng pointed at Lu Yanlong, who was resting at the corner of the wall.

"Yanlong, Boss Fang has a job for you. During this period of time, listen to his arrangements and be smart."

"Yes!"

Hearing the call of Hector, Lu Yanlong, who was resting with his eyes closed, quivered and ran over.

He had been busy all night last night and had just had the time to take a nap.

"Mr. Fang."

Fang Heng nodded and whispered a few words into Lu Yanlong's ear.

Lu Yanlong's expression immediately became very interesting after hearing that.

A spatial passage?

Why did he suddenly think of setting up a spatial passage?

What does Mr. Fang want to do?

Seeing the two of them talking, Héctor nodded and said, "Then you guys chat. I'll go and get busy first."

Fang Heng made a gesture of 'all's good' to Hector, then looked at Lu Yanlong and explained the specific requirements in detail.

"How is it? Can it be realized?"

Lu Yanlong pondered over Fang Heng's request and nodded and replied, "Theoretically, yes, but not..."

"But? Are we lacking the relevant blueprints?"

Lu Yanlong paused and carefully considered Fang Heng's idea from beginning to end before continuing, "We have existing blueprints. With me around, I can also help ensure the short-term stability of the spatial passage."
