Chapter 168: Ultraviolet Rays
Poof!
Wang Tao wields an axe to deal with the last of the pursuing zombies.
"Fortunately, there aren't too many zombies chasing ......"
The explosion just now was too loud, and Wang deliberately threw a few self-detonating bombs to distract the zombies, plus the two of them ran fast, so there were not too many zombies chasing after them. Just a small group of zombies, it can be easily dealt with.
However, Wang Tao's face was a little serious.
The zombies that caught up were Mad Demon Zombies, the previous Mad Demon Zombies were 2000 blood, but now, the blood volume of the Mad Demon Zombies has reached 4000!
For him, a mad demon zombie with 4,000 blood is naturally not a threat. But what if the mad demon zombie has more than 5,000 HP and reaches the second order? With the number of mad zombies, that's a lot of trouble!
"Let's go."
Shaking his head, Wang Tao didn't think much about it, and came to the Yuwan camp with Jiang Shixue.
Xu Xiaojun had already built a simple wooden hut and made some fences outside. Although it feels defenseless, at least it can't be seen by zombies.
Zombies also have vision, especially some powerful zombies can see far away. Some occlusion is still necessary.
"Brother Wang!"
Xu Xiaojun saw that Wang Tao and the two were fine, and finally put his mind at ease.
The scene of the explosion before scared him a lot, he didn't know where Wang Tao got so many bombs, he was afraid that Wang Tao and the two would be killed. Fortunately, Wang Tao and the two came back safely.
"It'll get dark later, and we'll make do here at night and take turns keeping vigil."
Wang Tao looked at the sky and said.
"Good!"
"Huh? Did you bring that fish too? ”
Wang Tao saw that there was a big fish in the house, which seemed to be the one he had caught before.
Wang Tao thought that he could seduce the blood-colored zombies out, so he took this fish for dinner. But who knows that the blood-colored zombies can't come out alive or dead, so they can only use bombs. After frying, you have to run, and the fish can only be wasted. But Wang Tao didn't expect that Xu Xiaojun was still very careful when he looked at the five big and three coarse......
"Hehe, I'm afraid of wasting, so I brought it."
Xu Xiaojun scratched his head.
"Okay, while it's still dark, let's make a fish to eat!"
Wang Tao said with a smile.
Although Fish Bay Camp is in ruins, some pots and pans can still be found.
Wang Tao found a large cauldron, put the fish meat processed by Xu Xiaojun into the pot, and then added the clean water in his space backpack.
Seeing that a pot of water suddenly appeared in Wang Tao's hand, Xu Xiaojun was stunned.
But he didn't ask much, this is all the end of the world, and it makes sense to have an ability similar to storage space.
Wang Tao didn't have a lighter on him, so he cut some sawdust, took a stick and began to drill wood to make fire. With his super-fast hand speed, a flame ignited a moment later.
The fish was huge, and even though a lot of things had been disposed of, there was still a lot of flesh left.
Wang Tao made part of the fish into fish soup, and part of the fish into grilled fish.
If these two days are safe, Wang Tao plans to catch a few more big fish and make them into a nutrient solution.
The grain left in the underground granary has been made into nutrient solution by Wang Tao. There are a lot of nutrient solutions in his space backpack, but they are all rice-flavored, relatively simple, and need other flavors to adjust it......
Xu Xiaojun quickly made a simple barbecue grill, and Wang Tao asked him to grill the fish.
Jiang Shixue looked at Wang Tao with blank eyes.
"You can help grill the fish too."
Wang Tao suddenly shrugged his shoulders.
"Good~"
Jiang Shixue's little face was full of happiness.
Wang Tao didn't have any seasoning, only salt and chili peppers. But it's enough, it's all the end of the world, and you don't have to pay too much attention to it, just eat it.
After the sun sets, the boiled and grilled fish are ready.
Wang Tao hurriedly extinguished the flames so as not to attract zombies - a large amount of flames would make the zombies retreat, but a small amount of flames might attract the attention of the zombies. So it's better to be cautious, after all, there are still two third-order zombies outside.
"It smells so good!"
Jiang Shixue took a big sip of fish soup and immediately praised.
"Well, it's okay."
Wang Tao also thinks it tastes good.
He saw Xu Xiaojun holding the bowl in a daze, so he asked:
"Xiaojun, don't you want to eat?"
"Oh, eat ......" Xu Xiaojun came back to his senses, quickly took a sip of soup, and ate a bite of fish, "It's delicious!" ”
"Haha, eat more if it's delicious."
Wang Tao laughed. This can be regarded as a recognition of him as a chef.
"Hmm!"
Xu Xiaojun nodded heavily.
He devoured it, and before he knew it, a tear fell into the bowl.
If he remembers correctly, in the last days for so long, in addition to Uncle Lu, Wang Tao was the first person to invite him to dinner......
After dinner, Wang Tao asked Xu Xiaojun and Jiang Shixue to rest, and he kept vigil first.
All kinds of defenses in the Yuwan camp were gone, and there was such a big explosion in the granary, Wang Tao had to be cautious to prevent zombies from coming.
During the vigil, Wang Tao took a look at the harvest of killing this third-order zombie today.
The fact that this third-order blood-colored zombie did not have a crystal nucleus was a bit unexpected by Wang Tao.
It also has a blue amount, and theoretically speaking, if you have a blue amount, you have an ability, and if you have an ability, you have a crystal nucleus.
However, it may also be a special case, after all, Wang Tao really didn't see it use any special abilities, it relied on all physical strength......
If there is no crystal nucleus, there is no crystal nucleus, and there are many other gains.
Wang Tao looked at his blood bar.
His HP has increased by 4500! Now 14450/14450!
This blood limit has increased a lot, but this is a case of skipping kills and tripling. Normally it should be 1500...... But anyway, this amount of blood is very cool!
30,000 blood is the third order, and Wang Tao is not far from the third order now.
When he reached 10,000 blood, he didn't trigger any sleep mechanism, and he could feel that his strength was directly improved, and it improved a lot. That's great, and you don't have to worry about it as much as it used to.
And since it's a skip-level kill, it naturally has special energy. Wang Tao's special energy has also been increased by 4500, and now it is 7740!
It takes 5,000 special energy to fuse a second-tier ability, and he's going to fuse it again! But you'll have to study what abilities are fused......
Finally, there are packages, and this blood-colored zombie bursts out of three packages.
And inside the first package is the crystal nucleus gift package.
This made Wang Tao a little speechless, it didn't explode the crystal nucleus by itself, but there was a crystal nucleus in the package...... That's kind of interesting.
There are a total of 4 crystal nuclei in the package.
After seeing the specific properties of the first crystal nucleus, Wang Tao's face was overjoyed.
【3rd Order Crystal Nucleus: Promotion】
[Quality: Excellent (80%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side Effects: None)]
This is a crystal nucleus that is even larger than the second-order crystal nucleus.
"It turned out to be a third-order promotion crystal nucleus ......"
Although he can't use it now, he will have to use it when he is promoted to the third rank in the future. With this crystal nucleus, it can save him a lot of time.
Moreover, the third-order crystal nucleus is the same as Wang Tao's guess, and the purity has been reduced by 5%, to only 40%......
【3rd Order Crystal Nucleus: Energy Increase】
[Quality: Excellent (60%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side Effects: None)]
[Energy Boost: Increase the maximum amount of blue by 1000]
The second crystal nucleus is an energy-enhancing crystal nucleus, and seeing the introduction of this crystal nucleus, Wang Tao frowned.
This is a crystal nucleus that directly increases the upper limit of blue amount.
1000 is a lot of blue, which is equivalent to the amount of blue added by 10 first-order crystal nuclei or 5 second-order crystal nuclei. But it's useless to just add blue, and you have to use it with other abilities.
It's good to say this crystal nucleus, but it's also chicken ribs to say - wait!
Wang Tao suddenly thought of a question!
He can fuse his own abilities, and if he fuses that ability with other abilities, it doesn't seem like a chicken.
And he still has the ability to extract, if he fuses this crystal nucleus, obtains the upper limit of 1000 blue amount, and then uses the extraction ability to extract the crystal nucleus, then is his upper limit of 1000 blue amount still there?
If the upper limit of the blue amount is still there, then isn't it equivalent to a card bug?
It's a pity that Wang Tao hasn't reached the third order now, so there is no way to fuse. Otherwise, he'll have to try whatever he says!
"Keep the crystal nucleus first, try it later, and see if it works!"
【Third-Order Crystal Nucleus: HP Increase】
[Quality: Excellent (40%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side Effects: None)]
[HP Increase: Increase the maximum HP by 1000]
The third nucleus is the HP-increasing nucleus, which increases the maximum HP by 1000.
It looks like it's about the same as the energy boosting crystal nucleus, but the amount of blood is not the same as the blue amount, and there is an upper limit to the amount of blood.
If other abilities don't advance, your health will get stuck. Then there's no point in increasing your HP...... And killing zombies will also get a maximum amount of health, which is definitely more cost-effective than fusing the crystal nucleus. After all, when Wang Tao killed a third-order zombie, he added 4,500 blood, and this crystal nucleus only added 1,000 blood.
This HP increases the crystal nucleus, which is a bit chicken......
Unless, this HP increase can break through the upper limit. For example, when stuck at 4999 blood, it can be increased to 5999 blood, then this crystal nucleus is useful.
"Let's go back and have a chance to experiment and see what this HP boost is all about."
【Third-Order Crystal Nucleus: Constitution Improvement】
[Quality: Epic (100%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side Effects: None)]
[Physical Fitness Improvement: Physical Fitness Gets All-round Improvement]
The last crystal nucleus was a physique-improving crystal nucleus, and this crystal nucleus also surprised Wang Tao.
He personally feels that this crystal nucleus is better than the increase in blood volume, and it is a grade with the energy to increase the crystal nucleus.
However, it is the same as the energy-boosting crystal nucleus, and if used alone, it may not work very well. But when you pair it with other abilities, it should be great.
Of course, Wang Tao can fuse and extract abilities. Therefore, Wang Tao also included this crystal nucleus in the experimental category, and if he had the opportunity to go back, he would synthesize or extract it. If you can combine HP Boost, Energy Boost, and Constitution Boost into one ability, that's awesome!
Wang Tao put away the crystal nucleus, and then looked at the second package that the blood-colored zombie burst out. This package is full of potions.
【Strength Growth Flask*5】
【Agile Growth Elixir*5】
【Mental Growth Elixir*5】
A total of 15 potions!
And it's not a flask that increases the temporary state, but a flask that increases the permanent stat!
[Strength Booster Potion: After injection, strength will gain a certain amount of permanent increase]
[Agility Growth Potion: After injecting, Agility will gain a certain amount of permanent increase]
[Mental Growth Elixir: After injection, the spirit will gain a certain degree of permanent amplification]
The orangutan zombie that Wang Tao killed before exploded out 5 strength growth potions. After he injected it, he felt that the effect was still obvious.
Therefore, Wang Tao did not hesitate, and directly injected these 15 medicines into his body in turn.
"Hiss......"
After the injection was completed, Wang Tao felt refreshed. The boost is obvious!
He felt that his strength was much greater, his reaction was faster, and he was not sleepy in an instant!
However, it is difficult to say how much strength will be improved, this will have to be tested to know, and it is obviously not suitable now.
Then Wang Tao looked at the last package, which contained two things. They are [High Power UV Flashlight*1] and [Small UV Flare*20].
[High-power ultraviolet flashlight: It can emit ultraviolet rays, but due to the high power, the power consumption is high and the duration is relatively short. Energy can be restored by battery]
It's a small, ordinary-looking square flashlight, only the size of a palm. No matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with high power. This flashlight uses a battery, but it is not an ordinary battery, but a material battery that Wang Tao exploded by killing zombies.
Wang Tao took a flashlight and shone it into the night.
Hmmm-
A large cloud of intense purple light instantly appeared on the ground in front of him.
"Wow! No wonder it's high power, so bright! ”
Wang Tao hurriedly turned off the flashlight, don't attract zombies to this thing.
But Wang Tao was a little puzzled, why an ultraviolet flashlight? This kind of purple light looks very uncomfortable, and it doesn't feel suitable for night use......
However, after seeing the second item, Wang Tao knew why it was ultraviolet rays.
[Small ultraviolet flare: When ignited, it can emit a strong ultraviolet light within a certain range for 25 seconds.] Ultraviolet rays can block or burn certain mutated zombies that are afraid of ultraviolet rays]
"It turns out that these blood-colored zombies are not afraid of ordinary light, but of ultraviolet rays? No wonder I shone a flashlight on it before, and it didn't react much, but as soon as the sun shone on it, it turned to dust......"
Only then did Wang Tao know that the weakness of these blood-colored zombies was actually ultraviolet rays, and it should be a large amount of ultraviolet rays to be effective. Ordinary lights also have ultraviolet light, but there are too few of them to probably not work for it......
Small UV flares are tubular in shape, similar to signal flares. The overall is still relatively small and can be carried around.
As for the specific effect of this flare, there is no way to try it for the time being, after all, he only has 20 of this thing, and he has to wait until the critical moment to use it.
And this loot is quite interesting, after killing the bloody zombie, the corresponding weapons and equipment are dropped!
Then if you encounter a bloody zombie again, you may not have to be so troublesome!
After putting away these trophies, Wang Tao looked at the second-order crystal nucleus in his hand again.
There are quite a lot of second-order crystal nuclei in his hand, but if you don't count the crystal nuclei of promotion and omnipotence, most of the crystal nuclei are basically not repeated.
Only the number of crystal nuclei of the weak poisonous mist is relatively large, there are more than a dozen. This is followed by a vigorous crystal nucleus, with three.
The ability of weak poisonous mist, Wang Tao felt that it was not suitable for him. So don't think about it.
He can synthesize an epic Vigor Crystal Nucleus with no side effects and impurities, and Wang Tao also wants this ability.
The problem is, now that he's fusing the crystal nucleus, he'll have to think about whether it's easy to fuse abilities in the future.
Vigorous is a passive ability, and his other three abilities are all active. Wang Tao felt that the probability of combining Dali and the other three crystal nuclei was very low...... Now, if you fuse vigorously, it will be a little inappropriate.
So after thinking about it, he still couldn't fuse the second-order crystal nucleus for the time being. I'll have to save up again.
It's a pity that these more than 9,000 special energies may not be used for the time being.
……
The next day, early in the morning.
When Wang Tao opened his eyes, he saw Jiang Shixue staring at him.
Fortunately, Wang Tao is used to Jiang Shixue's occasional strange behavior, otherwise he will probably be taken aback.
"Good morning, Xiaoxue."
"Early~"
Wang Tao came out and saw Xu Xiaojun patrolling nearby.
Wang Tao was on duty in the first half of the night yesterday, and Xu Xiaojun was on duty in the second half of the night. Jiang Shixue has been sleeping, but she sleeps very lightly, and she can get up immediately if there is any movement.
"Xiaojun, are you sleepy? If you're sleepy, go catch up on sleep. ”
Wang Tao cared.
"Brother Wang, I'm not sleepy."
Xu Xiaojun hurriedly patted his chest and said.
"Okay."
Looking at Xu Xiaojun's energetic appearance, Wang Tao nodded with a smile.
There was still some fish left from yesterday, so a few people ate it for breakfast.
During the meal, Wang Tao suddenly found that they seemed to be quite able to eat-
He didn't talk about it, he had a lot of food, but after becoming an alien, his appetite increased even more.
Xu Xiaojun is stronger than him, and the amount of food is not low.
As for Jiang Shixue, she looks thin and small, but her stomach is like a bottomless pit, and she has the largest amount of food among the three! After all, she is now half human and half corpse, and this amount of food is also very reasonable.
"I'll have to prepare some food in the future!"
Wang Tao sighed a little, although he has a lot of nutrient solution, it is not a matter of eating nutrient solution all the time.
Fortunately, Wang Tao has three magical stomach pouches in his hands, which can hold a lot of food.
"Here's for you."
Wang Tao handed a stomach pouch to Xu Xiaojun.
"It's ...... Hydration bladders? ”
Xu Xiaojun was a little unsure.
"It's something that stores food."
Wang Tao briefly demonstrated it to him, and Xu Xiaojun was suddenly surprised.
"Today we catch a little more fish and put them in the stomach pouch ......"
Each of the three of them has a magical stomach pouch, which can store a lot of food.
"Yes!"
Xu Xiaojun is full of energy.
Throughout the day, Wang Tao and the three of them have been fishing here. I caught a dozen fish that were bigger than ordinary humans!
I worked until the sun went down, and finally got rid of the fish.
Wang Tao is ready to continue fishing during the day tomorrow, and it is rare to come to a good fishing spot, which cannot be wasted.
As for tonight, Wang Tao is going to go out with Jiang Shixue.
He remembered that there were still two third-order blood-colored zombies here.
There are too many benefits to killing third-order zombies, plus Wang Tao has an ultraviolet flashlight and flares in his hand, so he wants to try to see if he can kill another one!
Even if it doesn't work, then at least you have to know where the lair of these two blood-colored zombies is. Maybe we can replicate yesterday's success!
