When Wang Tao returned to the courtyard, it was already two o'clock in the morning.

The meteor shower lasted for 4 hours, and it is unknown how many meteorites landed on the planet.

Wang Tao wanted to go out to the base to have a look, there are so many meteorites in the base, and there must be one outside. However, after seeing that the army used a large number of helicopters to fly out, he thought about it and forgot it, anyway, he also had some meteorites in his hands.

He was now curious about what was inside these meteorites.

Wang Tao took a look at his space backpack.

Not counting the Crystal Star Meteorite he opened before, he still has 7 in his hand now.

I still feel speechless when I say it. It took two normal-quality fourth-order crystal nuclei, and as a result, I got a normal-quality fourth-order self-exploding crystal nucleus...... What a loss!

I don't know if other Crystal Energy Star meteorites will also lose so much.

In fact, for Wang Tao, even if it was a fourth-order monster inside, it was very profitable. After all, monsters are full of treasures, and they can also drop loot packages. I'm afraid that there will be such a garbage thing as a self-exploding crystal nucleus again......

The 7 crystal energy star meteorites in Wang Tao's hand were of different sizes, the largest was the size of two household bathtubs, and the smallest was about the same as his fist.

However, there is no absolute causal relationship between the size of the star meteorite and the size of the items inside, after all, he has opened a bathtub-sized star meteorite before, and there is only one crystal nucleus in it.

Of the 7 star meteorites, 2 are of the fifth order, and the remaining 5 are of the fourth order.

Among them, there are 2 fifth-order star meteorites, one of which is of excellent quality, and it takes 8 fifth-order crystal nuclei to open. The other one is epic quality, and it requires 10 fifth-order crystal nuclei to open!

If you want to open these two star meteorites in a short period of time, it seems impossible at present.

The other 5 fourth-order star meteorites are 1 excellent, 2 excellent, 1 excellent, and 1 epic.

The number of crystal nuclei required to open them is 4 fourth-order crystal nuclei, 6 fourth-order crystal nuclei, 8 fourth-order crystal nuclei, and 10 fourth-order crystal nuclei.

The white-quality fourth-order star meteorite he opened before needed 2 fourth-order crystal nuclei.

Wang Tao probably understands a law of the Crystal Energy Star Meteorite - the quality of the Crystal Energy Star Meteorite will affect the number of crystal nuclei needed to open it!

Turning on a white quality Crystal Star Meteorite requires 2 nuclei of the same order; 4 for blue; 6 for purple; 8 for red; 10 orange pieces!

Although there is no color difference between these star meteorites, and others have no way to tell what the specific quality is, it can be judged from the position of the crystal nuclei on the star meteorite that those who can put two crystal nuclei are of ordinary quality, and those who can put ten crystal nuclei are epic quality.

Since the number of crystal nuclei needed to open the star meteorite is different, Wang Tao estimates that the things inside must be different.

An orange star meteorite that requires 10 crystal nuclei may produce the best, and a white star meteorite that requires 2 crystal nuclei may produce the worst.

Of course, it should not be very accurate to describe it as "good" and "garbage". Because this thing can open monsters!

For Wang Tao, opening a fourth-order monster is a very profitable thing with a high probability - the reason why it is said is a high probability is because if a monster as strong as a giant zombie is opened, he can't beat it.

But for others, especially those below the fourth order, it would be a bit of a disaster if they opened a monster...... Unless they set it up in advance, there is a large group of armed forces around when the star meteorite is opened......

Wang Tao now has a small problem.

That is, the quality of the crystal nucleus used to open the star meteorite, will it affect the contents inside?

For example, if he uses 10 normal-quality crystal nuclei and 10 epic-quality crystal nuclei to open the same star meteorite, will there be a difference in what he gets?

Wang Tao wanted to open a few star meteorites to experiment, but he still held back.

If it's turned on now, it will be a bit of a hassle if the monster comes out. After all, there had just been a chaos in the base, and everyone was nervous, so there was no need for him to create panic anymore.

Another is that Wang doesn't want to use the crystal nucleus in his hand to open it.

The crystal nuclei in his hands basically have abilities, and now most of the crystal nuclei in the zombies' heads no longer have abilities.

As you can imagine, these crystal nuclei with abilities, even if they are of white quality, will definitely become very valuable, so it is better to get some crystal nuclei without abilities to open them more cost-effectively.

In the end, you can let someone else open it first, and then he will inquire about what is inside. Wang Tao felt that the others must not be able to bear it. Especially the town hall, they should have a lot of star meteorites in their hands, and they will definitely try it......

These 7 star meteorites have been in Wang Tao's hands, and Ding Yuqin didn't have time to watch them, so Wang Tao gave them to study these stones and told them not to open them. Then Wang Tao looked at the loot of the cockroach monster.

This is a windfall. He killed a fourth-order lord monster in such a safe base...... It's an amazing feeling.

Kill this cockroach to gain 100 Awakening Energy, 1 Advanced Special Energy, and 1 Awakening Key. He now has 27 high-level special energies and 12 Awakening Keys.

In addition to this, the monster also drops 5 items and 5 loot packages.

【Obtain: 4th Order Crystal Nucleus*1】

【Acquire: Awakening Energy Orb*1】

[Obtain: 4th Order: Flexible Tentacles*4]

[Acquire: 4th Order: Sharp Claw*10]

【Obtain: 4th Tier: Tough Carapace*10】

This cockroach monster has a red quality crystal nucleus in its head, but unfortunately it has no ability.

There is also an Awakening Energy Bead, which is very lucky.

The remaining three items are all crafting materials.

[Fourth Order: Flexible Tentacles: Crafting materials, which can increase the mental defense of equipment]

[Fourth Order: Sharp Claws: Crafting materials, which can increase the bleeding attribute of equipment]

[Tier 4: Tough Carapace: Crafting material that can increase the defense of equipment]

All three of these materials come with additional attributes, especially this sharp claw, which also has the Bleeding attribute! Gear made from this material is sure to be great!

Then came the loot package.

The first loot package contains the Crystal Nucleus Gift Pack.

After seeing the crystal nucleus attribute inside, Wang Tao breathed a sigh of relief.

Although most of the corpses have no abilities, the nuclei in the loot packages he exploded still have abilities!

There are a total of 6 Crystal Nuclei in this package, which are the red [Fourth-Order Crystal Nucleus: Omnipotent], the orange [Fourth-Order Crystal Nucleus: Promotion], the purple [Fourth-Order Crystal Nucleus: Awakening], the blue [Fourth-Order Crystal Nucleus: Constitution Improvement], the purple [Fourth-Order Crystal Nucleus: Defense], and the red [Fourth-Order Crystal Nucleus: Strong].

There are three special crystal nuclei: omnipotence, promotion, and awakening!

The other three crystal nuclei are average, but Wang Tao does not dislike them. After all, this is a crystal nucleus with special abilities, and its value should be relatively high now.

The second loot package contains a potion.

【Acquire: Potion of Strength (M)*20】

【Acquire: Defense Flask (M)*20】

20 bottles of strength and 20 defense potions, so it's ordinary.

Wang Tao looked at the third loot package.

【Acquire: Awakening Energy Orb*1】

Got another Awakening Energy Orb!

Wang Tao counted it, and he now had 21 Awakening Energy Beads in his hand. He was going to start raising the upper limit of his awakening energy later.

Then came the fourth loot package.

【Acquire: Awakening Key*1】

An entity awakening key, if you count this key, he has a total of 7 entity awakening keys.

The last loot package contains blueprints, and there are three of them!

[Obtain: Sharp Knife Crafting Blueprint*1]

[Obtained: Black Shell Warframe Set Crafting Blueprint*1]

[Obtained: Physical Necklace Crafting Blueprint*1]

[Sharp Knife Crafting Blueprint: You can make a Sharp Long Knife. Materials Required: 4th Rank Sharp Claw*1, 4th Order Crystal Nucleus*1, Iron Block*30, Blade*30, Steel Wire*30, Screw*30, Nail*30, Rubber*30

[Sharp Long Knife: With Armor-Piercing Attribute]

[Black Shell Warframe Set Crafting Blueprint: You can make a set of full-body Warframes. Materials Required: 4th Tier Tough Carapace*1, 4th Rank Crystal Nucleus*1, Iron Block*30, Steel Wire*30, Screw*30, Rubber*30

[Black Shell Warframe Set: With Repair Attributes]

[Physical Fitness Necklace Making Drawing: You can make a physical necklace.] Materials Required: Fourth-Order Flexible Tentacles*1, Fourth-Order Crystal Nucleus*1]

[Physical Fitness Necklace: With Focus Attribute]

All three pieces of equipment come with additional stats!

And the core materials required for these three pieces of equipment also have additional attributes!

In other words, these three pieces of equipment come with at least two additional attributes?

Wang Tao immediately started the production.

After a few moments, all three pieces of equipment were made.

【Sharp Knife】

【Fourth Order (Excellence)】

[Durability +80, Attack +80, with armor piercing and bleeding effects (armor piercing and bleeding effects require awakening energy)]

This is a slightly curved matte black slender long knife, and its durability and attack power have been increased by 80 points, which is 10 points more than the fanged long knife used by Wang Tao! Moreover, the fanged long knife only has a bleeding attribute, and this long knife has an armor-piercing attribute in addition to bleeding!

[Armor Piercing: Ignoring certain defenses]

The explanation of the armor-piercing attribute is similar to what Wang Tao imagined. He felt that it would be easier to use "armor piercing" to deal with high-defense enemies. However, you have to try it yourself to find out.

Wang Tao picked up the long knife and waved it, feeling much easier than the fanged long knife. The fanged long knife bent a little too much, and this sharp long knife was just right.

"I'll use you later!"

Wang Tao put away the sharp long knife with great satisfaction, this is his new weapon in the future.

As for the long-fanged knives that have been retired, they can be used by others and continue to shine.

The second piece of equipment is a matte black full-body armor. It's just that the shape of this battle armor is a bit strange, a bit like the shell of a beetle, which is somewhat ugly for Wang Tao's personal aesthetics.

【Black Shell Warframe Set】

【Fourth Order (Excellence)】

[Durability +120, Defense +120, with repair effect (repair effect requires awakening energy)]

However, this suit of armor is ugly, but this attribute has nothing to say. Increased durability and toughness by 120. It also comes with a "repair" attribute.

[Fixed: Slow recovery of equipment durability]

Wang Tao was a little surprised, this turned out to be an attribute of restoring durability!

The durability of the equipment he made is basically limited. When the durability runs out, the equipment is destroyed. He couldn't regain his durability at the moment, and he didn't know how.

So to some extent, all of his equipment is actually disposable.

Of course, except in some special cases, the durability of equipment is actually very slow. Wang Tao has not yet had the durability of any piece of equipment that has been worn out normally. His previous equipment was damaged, all of which were due to special circumstances.

Since this repair attribute can restore durability, isn't it equivalent to the equipment that will never be used up?

The attributes of this suit of armor are very good, but Wang Tao doesn't plan to wear it himself. One is that he has a lot of equipment, not worse than this one, and the other is that this equipment is a bit ugly, and after wearing it, it is like a beetle......

Wang Tao felt that Xu Xiaojun should be quite suitable for this suit of armor. After all, this armor has high defense and does not slow down.

As for whether Xu Xiaojun is willing or not, Wang Tao feels that it is not a big problem. Xu Xiaojun didn't care about the appearance, the root armor that Wang Tao wore for him before was ugly. For Xu Xiaojun, as long as the attributes are good.

【Physical Necklace】

【Fourth Order (Excellence)】

[Mental Defense +20, Physical Cost -20%, with Focus Effect (Focus Effect Requires Awakening Energy)]

The appearance of the physical necklace looks very simple, it is said to be a necklace, but there is not even a pendant in the middle, like an ordinary black rope.

However, as long as the appearance is not ugly, the main thing is the attributes.

And the attributes of this physical fitness necklace, Wang Tao can only say that it is very strong!

There are relatively few equipment that adds mental defense, and most of the equipment is not added, which is already very good if it can add 20.

And then it also has a stat that reduces physical exertion by 20%! This is equivalent to increasing the upper limit of physical strength in disguise. To some extent, this ability can also be regarded as a divine skill.

And it also has a focus attribute!

[Focus: Reduces energy consumed when using an ability]

"This concentration attribute is okay!"

The attribute of the necklace itself is a decrease in physical exertion, and this focus is a decrease in energy consumption - doesn't this mean that the battle has become more protracted?

There's nothing to say, this necklace Wang Tao must be used by himself.

After wearing the physical fitness necklace, Wang Tao suddenly felt that his body seemed to be a lot lighter, especially when he moved, it was very smooth and comfortable...... This should be the effect of reducing physical consumption by 20%!

As for this focus attribute, Wang Tao fired an air bullet ability at the sky, then took off his necklace and fired another air bullet ability.

Finally, after a comparison, a general conclusion was drawn -

"Energy consumption has been reduced by 20%!"

Wang Tao was overjoyed!

Physical consumption has been reduced by 20%, and energy consumption has been reduced by 20%! It's still a big boost to the battle!

If you can reduce the energy consumption again, or even awaken the energy consumption to reduce the attribute...... Forget it, don't dream.

Wang Tao quickly shook his head.

He took out the black shell armor suit and put it on for Xu Xiaojun to wear. These things happened during the night, and everyone did not sleep for a while.

Xu Xiaojun really thought about the same as Wang Tao, and he didn't care about the equipment shape or anything.

After Xu Xiaojun put it on and tried it on, he thanked Wang Tao very happily.

"Thank you, Brother Wang! I can feel that this outfit is so much stronger than my previous ones! ”

"Haha, if you like it!"

Wang Tao chatted with everyone for a while, and then went back to the room to get ready for bed.

However, before going to bed, Wang Tao was ready to raise the upper limit of awakening energy.

He had just regained some of his awakening energy, and now it was exactly the integer [400/700].

So Wang Tao first took out 1 Awakening Energy Bead to bring the current energy to 500, and then took out 2 Awakening Crystal Nuclei for fusion. It now has a total of 12 Awakened Crystal Nuclei, and there are only 10 left after the fusion.

After a few moments, the Awakening Crystal Nucleus fused.

Wang Tao's awakening energy came to 700, and at the same time, the impurities in his body also came to 2%, and when he fused the fireball ability before, there were more impurities, and they were never removed.

Wang Tao directly took out two bottles of removal elixir and took them, and the impurities in his body were quickly cleared. Wang Tao once again became a state free of impurities, and suddenly felt relaxed.

Then Wang Tao consumed all the awakened energy, bringing the upper limit of energy to 800. Use 8 more Awakening Orbs to bring the energy limit to 900, and finally use 9 Awakening Orbs......

When there were still 4 awakening energy beads left, Wang Tao's upper limit of awakening energy finally reached 1000!

For Wang Tao, who has a little obsessive-compulsive disorder, the upper limit of 1000 awakening energy looks very pleasing to the eye.

"Sleep!"

……

Early morning.

Wang Tao woke up and looked at the time, it was already more than 9 o'clock in the morning.

He is not a person who loves to lie in bed, mainly because Yang Changhong sleepwalked into his room last night. The two wasted some time playing games.

"Wang Tao, leave breakfast for you."

After seeing Wang Tao wake up, Ding Yuqin warmed up breakfast.

"It's still my sister-in-law's caring!"

Ding Yuqin glanced at him, and then said:

"That Secretary Cui is here."

"Huh? When? ”

Wang Tao was a little surprised.

"I came at seven in the morning and waited in the living room for two hours."

"Wait so long? Then let him come over. ”

"Okay."

A moment later, Ding Yuqin took Cui Sheng to the restaurant.

"Good morning, Mr. Wang!"

When Cui Sheng saw Wang Tao eating breakfast, he immediately walked over quickly and greeted Wang Tao with a smile.

"Good morning. Secretary Cui came over so early......"

Wang Tao raised his head, his face a little curious.

"You and your team killed a fourth-order lord monster last night and saved a lot of people! The town hall would like to thank you and your team for your contribution! The follow-up city hall will give you a formal thank you gift, but such a big thing happened, the city hall is busy, thank you for a while, I hope Mr. Wang will forgive me! And I came here today, in addition to conveying the thanks of the town hall, and brought you your loot......"

"Spoils?"

Wang Tao didn't care about the thank you gift or something, but this trophy surprised Wang Tao.

"Yes, the fourth-order lord monster you killed yesterday had a lot of high-value loot on them. Although you left the monster corpse behind, you will not lose a penny, please check! ”
