Chapter 249: Chapter 135: An Inexplicable Sense of Crisisl
“Is this Shuize Base? It feels so safe!”
Li Qiu Yu exclaimed as she looked at the tall walls and the heavy gate from inside the car.
Han Rui had told her a lot about Shuize Base before, but hearing about it and seeing it in person gave her a completely different feeling.
“Once you’re in Shuize Base, we’re all family. If there’s anything you don’t understand, feel free to come to me.”
Han Rui turned her head with a smile and said.
“Thank you!”
Li Qiu Yu thanked her again.
They had returned to the base by nightfall, and Wang Tao asked Han Rui to arrange accommodations for Li Qiu Yu and keep her company.
Meanwhile, Wang Tao headed to the comprehensive building.
Seeing that several members were present, Wang Tao asked with a smile:
“How has everyone’s harvest been these past few days?”
Each person presented their findings, showcasing an array of gleaming crystal cores on the table.
Their hauls varied in size, but overall, it seemed quite good.
“It feels like the number of Elite Zombies is also slowly increasing. Otherwise, it would have been quite troublesome to collect so many crystal cores in such a short time…”
Wei Zhenguo said, frowning.
While collecting so many crystal cores was a good thing, an increasing number of Elite Zombies wasn’t necessarily good news…
Wang Tao glanced over the crystal cores and luckily found some he could use! He asked further:
“What about Level 2 Zombies? Did you encounter any?”
“No…”
Everyone shook their heads.
Wang Tao was somewhat disappointed. Without finding any Level 2 Zombies, he wouldn’t be able to advance to Level Two!
It seemed he had to prepare to hunt down that hooded zombie…
“These are the crystal cores I’ve selected for you. Take a look and take those that are suitable…”
Wang Tao took out some synthesized crystal cores, all of Excellent and outstanding quality, with a few being of Orange Epic Quality.
The sight of these crystal cores made everyone’s eyes gleam.
Previously, Wang Tao had instructed them not to fuse crystal cores for the time being because impurities and side effects in the body were an issue. Wang Tao would figure out the crystal cores problem; they just had to give all their crystal cores to him.
They naturally trusted Wang Tao, so they only fused with the crystal cores Wang Tao gave them. Currently, their Special Ability Levels weren’t high.
The batch of crystal cores Wang Tao now distributed wasn’t small, and after their fusion, they could probably max out at least one or two skills!
“Let’s hunt Level 1 Zombies for a few more days, and then we can prepare to hunt Level 2 Zombies!”
Now that they couldn’t find other Level 2 Zombies, their only option was to go after that hooded zombie.
Although it had 6000 HP, it was still easier to deal with than the gorilla zombie with 10000 HP.
Moreover, if they didn’t act now, the zombie’s strength might increase, but Wang Tao’s strength had already reached its limit. If the gap widened further, it would only become more challenging, so they had to act fast!
“We’re finally going to face a Level 2 Zombie, huh…”
Everyone was a bit nervous but also somewhat expectant.
Wang Tao had already informed them about the hooded zombie, and they knew it might be stronger than the zombie Shao Yong!
Of course, it might also be weaker.
But regardless, it was a bona fide full blood Level 2 zombie, much stronger than their Level 1 Ability Users!
However, everyone still believed in the power of numbers. They felt they had a chance of winning against this Level 2 Zombie!
“Come on, everyone!”
“Come on!”
Wang Tao, carrying the crystal cores that Wei Zhenguo and the others had collected these days, returned home.
On the way, he had already examined them closely.
Although their total number of crystal cores wasn’t as high as Wang Tao’s own recent haul, there were quite a few useful ones among them for himself.
In particular, the Precision Shooting crystal cores – there were exactly four, which would allow Wang Tao to synthesize both a Red and an Orange Crystal Core!
As for the Self-healing Crystal Cores, there was one from them and one more in Wang Tao’s possession, just enough to synthesize a Red crystal core.
The 80% fusion success rate for Red was quite high, and so far, there had not been a single failure. If Wang Tao had the chance, he would, of course, synthesize the 100% successful Orange, but crystal cores were scarce at the moment, so Red would do for now unless his luck was exceptionally bad.
Upon arriving home, Wang Tao turned those three crystal cores into ones without any side effects or impurities. After greeting Ding Yuqin, he immediately placed the crystal cores in his mouth.
Moments later, the three crystal cores successfully fused without any mishaps; the two Red crystal cores worked out perfectly.
Wang Tao’s Self-healing power reached “+7,” and his Precise shooting ability finally hit “+10”!
His mana also increased by 300, now standing at 3900.
“I just need the last three Self-healing crystal cores… I hope I can get them sorted in the next few days!”
After Ding Yuqin put the last soup on the stove, she looked at Wang Tao with slight resentment and asked:
“Why hasn’t Han Rui come yet?”
“I’ll hurry her up.”
Wang Tao took out the walkie-talkie and contacted Han Rui.
“Dinnertime. Oh, and bring Li Qiu Yu with you.”
“…Oh.”
The voice of Han Rui coming out of the walkie-talkie sounded muffled; she knew she couldn’t escape this time.
Upon hearing the name of a stranger, Ding Yuqin suddenly felt anxious inside and asked tentatively in a low voice:
“That… Who is Li Qiu Yu?”
“Haven’t I mentioned her to you?”
Wang Tao frowned, not recalling if he had mentioned her or not.
“Uh? Have you mentioned it?”
Ding Yuqin looked puzzled.
“She’s a friend I met before who has helped me out. I happened to see her while I was out, so I brought her back to the base.”
