Apocalypse: I Can See the Health Bar, Kill Monsters and Drop Treasures Chapter 458

Chapter 458 Xiao Hei's Awakening

The underground cave has been discovered for some time, but most people don't know the specific conditions inside the underground cave.

Because this cave was discovered by several forces together, it is regarded as their private territory. I heard there was good stuff inside, but they didn't want anyone to get a piece of it, so they kept it a secret.

However, this kind of thing cannot be completely kept secret. Some news gradually came out, saying that several forces found a cave. The cave was very dark and dangerous, but there were many good things.

As the saying goes, it is not about scarcity but about inequality. After others learned the news, they obviously did not want the benefits to be monopolized by these forces, so they began to fight for it.

The struggle has indeed produced some results—those forces are willing to give up some of their quotas for others to enter. And those who can't get in can choose those who invest in and get a certain return.

The reason why too many people are still not allowed in is not entirely because the few forces who discovered the cave are unkind, but because there are aggressive mutant plants and animals in the cave. If more people go in, there will definitely be more fighting, and the cave is underground. If there are too many battles inside, the cave may collapse!

It would be bad luck if you were buried alive in a cave, so the number of people entering must be controlled.

This is definitely not the best solution, but time is precious and it is good to get these things, so everyone agreed to this plan.

At the appointed time, when they were about to explore the cave together, a wave of corpses suddenly appeared outside. There is no other way, the plan can only be temporarily postponed until the zombie wave passes.

As a result, before the zombie wave had passed, there was another heavy snowstorm. The whole world seemed to be frozen, and there was no way to go out... The plan to explore the cave could only be postponed, and then it has been postponed until now.

"Principal Wang, I would like to know more about the situation outside..."

Encountering a large number of frozen zombies and giant eagles may sound serious, but in fact it has a lot to do with luck. And most importantly, there is no way to solve these two problems now. This is not something you can come up with just by thinking, this is the gap in hard power...

Then he seemed to have thought of something again and looked at Shi Chuanfudao:

A lot of things happened later, and Wang Tao was no longer so concerned about the catacombs.

But now there is another question. If the crack is really a cave, then they have to go outside the city. And the temperature outside the city is so low, can humans withstand it?

They subconsciously looked at Wang Tao and his group. Since Wang Tao and the others can handle it, as long as they don't send anyone with too weak strength, it should be fine, right?

Gu Yun looked at several committee members.

Someone asked quickly.

Whether it is the cost of manufacturing power armor or the cost of the energy-crystal core used by power armor, it is not low. If the number is small, it's okay, but if the number is large, even the city hall can't handle it.

Wang Tao didn't hide much, especially about the outside environment. Whatever they asked, Wang Tao answered.

Everyone was silent for a moment, and then looked at each other, all a little... eager to try!

It seems like you can go to this underground cave!

Wang Tao studied the map carefully, then immediately pointed at it and said:

“I'm not 100% sure, but it's a bit like... Well, I'll make the crypt information we collected public to you!”

But now the situation is special and there are a lot of threats outside. If you are not careful, the base may be at risk of destruction. At such a critical moment, he still knew what was important and what was important.

“That crack...is it a cave?”

In addition to power armor, mechanical exoskeletons also seem to work. The cost of exoskeletons is much cheaper than power armor. While the exoskeleton doesn't provide warmth, it can add some mobility to those wearing thick clothing...

As long as this problem can be solved, there is no problem in sending people out. Unless you are very unlucky and encounter a large number of frozen zombies or giant eagles when you go out...

At dawn, Wang Taosheng finished his meal and answered his questions.

So there is actually only one problem that really needs to be solved—protection from the cold!

Or to be more precise, how to effectively prevent the cold while still allowing everyone to have a considerable amount of combat effectiveness. It's also very cold inside the cave...

"Can."

These committee members were all lost in thought.

However, the exoskeleton also has shortcomings. No matter how much its flexibility is increased, it is still not as comfortable as the original body, and its strength has an upper limit. For ordinary people, mechanical exoskeletons have definitely improved. But for those with good abilities, this thing may be greatly improved...unless the quality of the mechanical exoskeleton is very good, but this goes back to the previous problem-the cost is too expensive.

With Cheng Yiyi's help, Wang Tao also got a place to enter the catacombs, but he didn't know where exactly the catacombs were or what was going on inside.

“Most likely yes!”

Others are also a little confused. Naturally, they have never seen what the cave looks like.

For example, the simplest one is just to wear power armor.

Shi Chuanfu took out his information watch, opened a document and handed it over.

“The entrance to the catacombs is at this location, and there is a crack in it that is almost adjacent to the catacombs—maybe they are connected, but I didn't go and take a closer look…”

But this has a fatal drawback—the cost is too expensive!

Now if you want to leave the city, you will face three problems, one is to protect yourself from the cold, the other is to encounter a large number of frozen zombies, and the third is to encounter a giant eagle.

“So that means these cracks are really caves?”

Although he is the highest administrative officer in the base, such large-scale decision-making must be approved by the committee. These committee members happened to be here today, and he wanted to see what these committee members thought.

“Oh, by the way, where is the entrance to the cave you found?”

Although they didn't know exactly what was in the cave, judging from the actions of Shi Chuanfu and the others, there must be good things in it. Now that the crypt has appeared in the form of a crack, no one is guarding the entrance, and it is impossible to guard the entrance, so can they not send people in at will?

While these committee members were thinking, Shi Chuanfu looked at Wang Tao and said:

Shi Chuanfu did not hesitate and directly gave an address.

Wang Tao and Shi Chuanfu nodded at the same time.

This thing is not only convenient and can keep you warm and cold, but it can also greatly enhance your combat effectiveness!

If it were before today, he would most likely not have disclosed this information. After all, this represents the common interests of their forces. They have agreed among themselves that they cannot disclose information without authorization and harm the interests of their allies.

As for how to solve this problem...it's actually not difficult.

“It seems like it's really a cave...”

But now, if these sudden cracks are really caves, wouldn't he say that he can go down and have a look?

After all, he didn't go to the catacombs, not because he didn't want to go, but because he didn't know where the entrance was. And if it's a crack, then it doesn't matter even if a fight or something happens inside, right? After all, there is no ground above, so there is no need to worry about the ground collapsing...

Wang Tao quickly finished reading this information.

"Thank you, Principal Wang, for your answer! You should go back and have a good rest first. You have worked hard these days! We still have to discuss the matter about the catacombs..."

These committee members are obviously going to have a meeting.

"OK."

Wang Tao nodded.

Qu Shilin had already returned to the research institute early, and Gu Yun personally escorted Wang Tao and his party downstairs.

After going downstairs, Wang Tao met Jiang Hui who was about to go upstairs.

“Huh? Mr. Wang! You are back!”

Jiang Hui suddenly became happy when he saw Wang Tao.

He knew that Wang Tao had gone out, and he was still a little worried about Wang Tao. Now that he saw that Wang Tao was back safely, he was sincerely happy.

“Officer Jiang, oh no, it's Chief Jiang!”

Wang Tao greeted with a smile. At this time, Jiang Hui was already the director.

“It's all thanks to Mr. Wang! If it weren't for Mr. Wang, I, Jiang Hui, wouldn't be where I am now!”

Jiang Hui said quickly.

If Wang Tao hadn't led him to destroy the Twilight Church and capture criminals at the committee level, allowing him to achieve great success, then he would not have been able to become the director.

"It's all your own efforts!" Wang Tao smiled and shook his head, and then said, "By the way, is there any situation with the Twilight Church in the base these days?"

"Thanks to Mr. Wang, everything is fine in the base now. The Dusk Church should be completely uprooted!"

"That's good."

Wang Tao nodded.

As long as there is no Twilight Church causing trouble in the base, the Twilight Church outside the base will not pose much of a threat for the time being.

After the two chatted for a few more words, Jiang Hui took the initiative to end the topic.

"Mr. Wang, you just came back, right? I won't disturb you anymore! Just walk slowly!"

Jiang Hui knew that Wang Tao had just come back and might need to rest. He only needs to show up and say a few words. You can't keep dragging Wang Tao to talk, otherwise it will offend people.

"good."

Wang Tao had nothing to do, so he returned home directly after getting in the car.

I have been outside for more than ten days this time, and apart from the thicker snow, there haven't been any big changes at home.

Inside the house, several black snakes lay lazily in front of the fireplace warming themselves. If it weren't for the fact that there was a lot less firewood in the house, the feeling would be exactly the same as before leaving.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ifies

Xiaobing got out of Wang Tao's pocket, and immediately ran to the black snakes with some curiosity. Xiaohei and the others were startled. After all, Xiaobing was a serious fourth-level lord, and they were just fourth-level elites. , the level gap is here.

“They are all our own people.”

Wang Tao said with a smile.

　　For this new member of the family, the black snakes are somewhat uncomfortable, and they always feel like they are encountering a natural enemy.

Wang Tao could feel Xiao Hei's state, and he suddenly felt a little strange. Are pythons afraid of minks? If you ignore the level, the size difference is huge...

But after some research by Wang Tao, he knew the reason - the black snake felt the ice attribute breath in Xiao Bing's body, and they are cold-blooded animals. When they get cold, they become sleepy and their combat effectiveness is greatly reduced... So to some extent Said, the ice attribute is very restrained against them.

After understanding this, Wang Tao was suddenly speechless. These five black snakes shouldn't have been making soy sauce all winter, right?

But then again, they now only have the strength of Tier 4 elites... Tier 4 elites are stronger than Tier 3 lords in some aspects, but not as good as Tier 3 lords in some aspects. Taken together, it can be regarded as a third-level lord.

As for the strength of a third-level lord, unless it is for treatment or something, it will not be of much help to Wang Tao and the others...

“It just so happens that I brought back a lot of snake fruits this time. Feed them more and see if they can awaken..."

Wang Tao took out some snake fruits, and several black snakes smelled the smell and crawled over immediately.

After touching Xiao Hei's head, Wang Tao gave them the snake fruit.

“Eat more, the snake fruit is enough. But you also have to put in some effort. It's been so long, and my strength hasn't improved at all. I'm so stupid!”

Hearing Wang Tao's words, Xiao Hei spat out snake letters, his little eyes seemed a little aggrieved.

The speed at which these mutant beasts improve is not as fast as that of zombies. It is even related to luck. It is normal that they have not improved. It would be abnormal if they often improve...

But after eating this snake fruit, it suddenly felt hot all over the body, as if a force was about to awaken in its body.

"Huh?" Wang Tao naturally noticed the difference in Xiao Hei immediately. "Are you... ready to awaken?"

After receiving Xiao Hei's confirmed reply, Wang Tao immediately grinned.

“I take back what I said before, you are not stupid at all!”

Wang Tao touched Xiao Hei's head, and it licked Wang Tao's palm, then immediately hovered in front of Wang Tao, and then fell asleep.

“Xiao Hei is...awakening?”

Others finally noticed the change in Xiao Hei.

“Well, it's time to wake up.”

"Very good!"

After awakening, there will be an additional fourth-level lord with combat power, which is a good enhancement for their small team.

Wei Zhenguo looked at the black snakes Erhei and Sanhei.

“Xiao Hei has woken up, you guys have to work hard!”

Several black snakes cannot speak, but their owners can clearly feel their envy of Xiao Hei.

“Xiao Hei is about to wake up, what do you say?”

At this time, Wang Tao smiled at everyone and said:

　　“Shit! I want to wake up!”

Wei Zhenguo said immediately.

“We want it too! We want it now!”

Ding Yuqin and the other girls spoke at the same time.

Due to the emergence of cracks, they may go out again in a short period of time. So it's best to improve some strength quickly.

"Okay! You try it first, and I will come back after you finish trying it."

Wang Tao directly took out a bunch of entity awakening keys.

He left 300 secret keys for himself, and then took out the remaining 82.

There are still six people who have not yet awakened, but Chen Zhuang and Li Qiuyu are not in a hurry, so they will start with Ding Yuqin, Han Rui, Yang Changhong and Wei Zhenguo.

They are all awakening for the second time now. This time they will consume 2 keys. If they fail this time, they will need 3 keys to continue awakening...

Assuming they continue to fail, these more than 80 keys can enable the four of them to awaken 5 times!

This number of times sounds like quite a lot, but if it really drags on until this point, their success rate will only be 10% each time... So it's hard for Wang Tao to say how many people will awaken in the end, but you will know after giving it a try. !
