Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

The express train to the West District Federation, the Streaming Light.

"Whoo..."

Under the cover of night, the train emitted a long whistle as it sped forward along the tracks.

Recently, incidents of game monsters invading reality have become common.

Because the game invasion area generates a black fog that affects perception, such incidents are officially referred to by the Federation as black fog incidents.

The areas affected by the spread of the black fog are collectively called black fog zones.

The scenery outside the window was shrouded in a thin layer of black fog, receding rapidly.

Fang Heng's gaze swept across the career woman sitting opposite him, who had her eyes closed and was resting.

She was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, wearing blue light glasses, with neat short hair, a beige knitted sweater, and the logo of a securities company printed on the coat placed beside her.

Fang Heng remembered her.

He recalled that the famous skydiving incident two years ago involved a client from this securities company.

From the moment she boarded the train, the woman had been typing away on her blue laptop.

Seeming to realize that the network signal was lost, the woman frowned slightly, closed her laptop, and her eyes inadvertently met Fang Heng's.

"Do we know each other?"

"No, we don't."

Fang Heng shook his head and was about to close his eyes and rest when the entire train suddenly braked violently!

"Screech—!"

The sharp, ear-piercing sound of metal friction rang in his ears. Fang Heng's body lurched forward, but he was firmly locked in his seat by the fastened seatbelt.

"Boom! Boom!!"

The ear-piercing sound finally stopped after the entire train shook violently twice, and the entire train came to a complete halt.

"Looks like we're in trouble."

The four people in the VIP carriage looked at each other, then tacitly began to unfasten their seatbelts.

Noisy sounds came from outside the VIP carriage.

"Damn it? Did we crash?"

"Damn Federation, how many years has this broken train been running? Don't they know to replace it with a new one? Where is the taxpayer's money being spent...?"

"Almost killed me, delaying my business, I'm going to complain about you!"

The cursing of fellow passengers in the outer carriages gradually rose.

The four people in the VIP room remained silent, checked their own conditions, and got up from their seats one after another, opening the windows to check the outside situation.

Fang Heng also stuck his head out of the window to check.

The entire train and railway were shrouded in a black fog. It could be seen that most of the front of the train had completely derailed.

It's over.

It seemed that the train would not be able to continue running for a short time.

"Is it an accident caused by the black fog...?"

Fang Heng narrowed his eyes.

Trouble.

He thought that boarding the train would take him directly to the West District Federation territory, but he didn't expect to be stopped halfway.

It seemed that he would have to walk the next part of the journey himself.

The black fog possessed a special power that could affect perception, but it wasn't a big problem. With his current ability, leaving alone wouldn't be too difficult.

"Gentlemen."

A middle-aged man who had been silent all along stood up, looked at Fang Heng and the woman, and said, "Everyone, it seems that our train has encountered a little trouble. We are now in the dangerous area of the black fog zone and may be attacked by monsters at any time."

The woman sitting opposite Fang Heng had regained her composure, put her laptop away, and returned it to her backpack.

"What do you want to say?"

"Those who can sit in this VIP room are not ordinary people. I'll be frank. Everyone's goal should be to go to the West District Federation recruitment office. Now that we've encountered trouble, why don't we team up? We can take care of each other along the way and ensure safety. What do you think?"

As the middle-aged man spoke, he gestured to his partner beside him, "Let me introduce myself. I'm Zaka, and this is Zate. We are brothers, and we are very familiar with this route and can help."

"Su Guantong."

Su Guantong briefly introduced her name, which was considered an agreement to cooperate, and then turned her gaze to Fang Heng.

The three people in the carriage also turned their attention to Fang Heng.

"Cough, my name is Fang Heng."

When the three heard Fang Heng's name, their expressions changed subtly, and they all looked at him.

"Fang Heng? The world master of the vampire world?"

"No, just the same name."

"Phew, I thought we met a big shot. Zaka patted his chest. "Speaking of which, the vampire bloodline is really expensive now. I heard it's all thanks to World Master Fang Heng. A friend of mine has a vampire bloodline and is soaring in the game... The last time I had dinner with him, he said..."

Fang Heng interrupted Zaka and confirmed with him, "Do you both know the way to the West District Federation recruitment office?"

"I've been there once before on business."

"Alright." Fang Heng nodded in response immediately upon hearing this. "The train is severely damaged and probably won't be repaired in a short time. Staying here is a waste of time. Let's leave as soon as possible."

"I think so too."

Zaka said, pushing open the door of the VIP room.

Outside in the train aisle, passengers were crowded in the front of the carriage, and some had already broken open the train windows and climbed out to investigate.

Just as Fang Heng and the others were about to go over to check, the voice in the carriage began to broadcast an announcement.

"Attention passengers, this is Harvey, the conductor of this train. This train has derailed due to a black fog monster attack and can no longer proceed."

"We are currently still in the black fog area. Please do not open the doors to avoid being attacked by monsters. We have requested external support. Please remain in your seats and wait for rescue. Thank you for your understanding and support..."

Hearing the content broadcasted on the loudspeaker, several passengers who were still climbing out of the train immediately paused and quickly shrank back.

Damn it!

Black fog!

The passenger who had been complaining and cursing about filing a complaint was now silent, his face pale, hugging his briefcase tightly in his arms.

"Damn it, who was the idiot who said to smash the window just now!"

"Stop cursing! Quickly pull down all the curtains! What are you waiting for! Are you waiting to die!"

"And you guys, come and help, find a way to block the windows..."

For a time, the carriage became noisy again. The passengers, hearing about the arrival of the black fog, began to save themselves.

Fang Heng and the others looked at each other.

Su Guantong said, "There should be more than just us going to the West District Federation recruitment office on this train, right? Where are the others?"
