It's been a while since the cave was discovered, but most people don't know what exactly happened inside the cave.

Because this cave was discovered by several forces together, it is considered their private territory. I heard that there were good things in it, but they didn't want to let people get a piece of the pie, so they kept it a secret.

However, this kind of thing cannot be completely kept secret, and some news has been slowly exposed, saying that several forces have found a cave, and the inside of the cave is very dark and dangerous, but there are a lot of good things and so on.

After other people learned of this news, they obviously did not want the benefits to be monopolized by these forces, so they began to fight for it.

The fight did have some effect - those forces were willing to give up some of the places for others to enter. And those who can't get in can choose to invest in those who go in, so as to get a certain return.

The reason why too many people are still not allowed to enter is not because the forces that discovered the cave are not close to people, but because there are aggressive mutated plants and animals in the cave. If there are more people going in, there will definitely be more battles, and the cave is underground, and if there are too many battles inside, the cave may collapse!

If you are buried alive in the cave, it will be a bad luck, so you have to control the number of people who enter.

It's certainly not the best solution, but time is precious, and it's good to get these things, so everyone agreed.

When the appointed time came, they were about to go to the cave together to explore, when a sudden wave of corpses came outside. There is no way to do it, the plan can only be postponed for the time being, and it will be said when the corpse tide passes.

As a result, before the tide of corpses had passed, there was another heavy snowstorm, and the whole world seemed to be frozen in ice, and there was no way to go out...... The Cave Exploration Program had to be postponed until now.

With the help of Cheng Yiyi, Wang Tao also has a quota to enter the cave, but where is the cave and what is the specific situation inside...... He didn't know either.

Later, a lot of things happened, and Wang Tao didn't pay so much attention to the affairs of the cave.

But now, if these crevices that suddenly appeared were really caves, didn't he say that he could go down and have a look?

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

"The crack...... Is it a cave? ”

The others were also a little puzzled, and naturally they had never seen the appearance of the cave.

"I'm not 100 percent sure, but it's a bit like ...... Well, I'll give you the information we've collected about the caves! ”

Shi Chuanfu took out the information watch, opened a copy of the information and handed it out.

If it was before today, he would most likely not disclose this information, after all, this represents the common interests of their forces, and they have agreed between them that they cannot disclose information without authorization and damage the interests of their allies.

But now the situation is exceptional, and there are a lot of threats out there. If you are not careful, the base may be at risk of being destroyed. At this critical time, he still knows which is more important.

Wang Tao quickly read this information.

"It seems to be a real cave......

Then he seemed to think of something, and looked at Shi Chuanfu and said:

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

Shi Chuanfu did not hesitate, and directly said an address.

After Wang Tao carefully studied the map, he immediately pointed to the map and said:

"The entrance to the cavern is at this location, and there's a crack in it that is almost next to the cavern - maybe they're connected, but I didn't look closer......"

"So these cracks are really caves?"

Someone hurriedly asked.

"Probably yes!"

Wang Tao and Shi Chuanfu nodded at the same time.

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

This cave seems to be able to go!

Although they didn't know what was in the cave, judging from Shi Chuanfu's actions, there must be something good in it. Now that the cave is in the form of a crack, and there is no one to guard the entrance, and it is impossible to guard the entrance, then they can send people in at will?

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 party, since Wang Tao and they can all bear it, as long as they send people who are too weak, it should be no problem, right?

Gu Yun looked at several committee members.

Although he is the highest administrator in the base, this kind of big decision-making thing has to be passed by the committee. These members happened to be here today, and he wanted to see what they thought.

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

"Yes."

Wang Tao didn't hide too many things, especially about the outside environment, what they asked, what Wang Tao answered.

At dawn, Wang Taosheng's meal was finished, and the questions were answered.

The commissioners were lost in thought.

Now if you want to get out of the city, you will face three problems, one is to protect against the cold, one is to encounter a large number of frozen zombies, and the other is to encounter giant eagles.

Encountering a large number of frozen zombies and giant eagles may sound serious, but it actually has a lot to do with luck. And most importantly, there is simply no way to solve these two problems right now. It's not just something you can come up with, it's a gap in hard power......

So what really needs to be solved is actually only one problem - cold protection!

Or to be precise, how to effectively protect against the cold, but also let everyone have a considerable part of the combat effectiveness. It's cold inside the cave......

As long as this problem can be solved, it will be no problem to send people out. Unless you're unlucky, you'll encounter a large number of frozen zombies or giant eagles when you go out......

As for how to solve this problem...... Actually, it's not that hard.

For example, the simplest is to wear power armor.

This thing is not only convenient, can protect against the cold and keep warm, but also can greatly enhance the combat effectiveness!

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

Whether it is the cost of manufacturing power armor, or the energy used by power armor - the cost of crystal nuclei, this is not low. It's okay to say if the number is small, but if the number is too large, even the city hall can't bear it.

In addition to power armor, mechanical exoskeletons seem to work, and the cost of exoskeletons is much cheaper than power armor. While exoskeletons don't keep warm, they can add some flexibility to those wearing thick clothing......

However, the exoskeleton also has disadvantages, no matter how much its flexibility is increased, it is not as comfortable as the original body, and the strength has an upper limit. For ordinary people, mechanical exoskeletons definitely have a boost. But for a decent ability, this thing can be greatly improved...... Unless the quality of the mechanical exoskeleton is awesome, but this goes back to the previous problem - the cost is too expensive.

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

"Thank you, Principal Wang, for your answer! Go back and have a good rest, you've worked hard these days! We still have to talk about the caves......"

It is clear that these members are about to meet.

"Okay."

Wang Tao nodded.

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

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

"Huh? Mr. Wang! You're back! ”

When Jiang Hui saw Wang Tao, he immediately looked overjoyed.

He knew that Wang Tao had gone out, and he was still a little worried about Wang Tao, but now he was sincerely happy to see that Wang Tao had come back safely.

"Officer Jiang, oh no, it's Director 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, how could I have Jiang Hui now! ”

Jiang Hui hurriedly said.

If it weren't for Wang Tao taking him to destroy the Dusk Church, and catching the commissioner-level criminals, and making him make a great contribution, then he would not have become the director.

"It's all your own efforts!" Wang Tao shook his head with a smile, and then said, "By the way, is there any situation in the base for the past few days?" ”

"Thanks to Mr. Wang, everything is fine at the base now. The Twilight Church should be uprooted once and for all! ”

"That's good."

Wang Tao nodded.

As long as there is no Twilight Church in the base, the Twilight Church outside the base is not 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 bother you! You go slowly! ”

Jiang Hui knew that Wang Tao had just come back and might need to rest. He showed up and just said a few words, he couldn't keep pulling Wang Tao to say, otherwise it would be disgusting.

"Okay."

Wang Tao didn't have anything to do, and went straight home after getting in the car.

This time, I stayed outside for more than ten days, and there was not much change in my home, except for the snow being thicker.

Inside, a few black snakes were lazily lying in front of the fireplace to bake the fire, and if it weren't for the fact that there was a lot less firewood in the house, it would feel exactly the same as when they left.

"Twitter—"

Xiaoice got out of Wang Tao's pocket, and suddenly ran to the vicinity of those black snakes with some curiosity, Xiao Hei was startled, after all, Xiaoice is a fourth-order lord of the Eight Classics, and they are only fourth-order elites, and the level gap is here.

"It's all my own."

Wang Tao said with a smile.

"Hiss-"

For this new member of the family, several black snakes are a little uncomfortable, and there is always a feeling of encountering natural enemies.

Wang Tao could feel Xiao Hei's state, and he suddenly felt a little strange, would the python be afraid of mink? If you ignore the level, this size difference is huge......

However, after Wang Tao's research, he knew what the reason was - the black snakes felt the ice attribute breath in Xiaoice's body, and they were cold-blooded animals, and they would be sleepy when they were cold, and their combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced...... So in a way, the ice attribute is very restrained by them.

After understanding this, Wang Tao was suddenly a little speechless. All winter, these five black snakes shouldn't have been playing soy sauce, right?

But then again, they only have the strength of a fourth-order elite right now...... Fourth-order elites are stronger than third-order lords in some ways, but they are inferior to third-order lords in some ways. Generally speaking, it can be regarded as a third-order lord.

And the strength of the third-order lord, unless it is healing or something, it will not help Wang Tao much......

"It just so happens that I brought back a lot of snake fruits this time, feed them more, and see if I can have an awakening ......"

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

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

"Eat more, the snake fruit is enough. But you also have to give some strength, how long has it been, and the strength has not improved at all, and you are stupid! ”

Hearing Wang Tao's words, Xiao Hei spit out the snake letter, and there seemed to be some grievances in those little eyes.

The speed at which these mutant beasts improve their strength is not comparable to that of zombies, and it is even related to luck, it is the norm that they have not improved, and it is not normal if they are often improved......

However, after eating this snake fruit, it suddenly felt hot all over its body, as if there was a force that wanted to wake up in its body.

"Huh?" Wang Tao naturally discovered Xiao Hei's difference at the first time, "You are ...... Can you wake up? ”

"Hiss-"

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

"I'll take back what I said before, you're not stupid at all!"

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

"Black, this is ...... Awakened? ”

The others finally noticed the change in Blackie.

"Well, it's time to wake up."

"Great!"

If they awaken, they will have an additional fourth-order lord combat power, which is a good enhancement for their small team.

Wei Zhenguo looked at the black snakes of the second black and third black.

"Xiao Hei has awakened, you have to work hard!"

"Hiss-"

Several black snakes couldn't speak, but their owners could clearly feel their envy for Xiao Hei.

"Xiao Hei is going to wake up, what do you say?"

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

"Rub! I'm going to wake up! ”

Wei Zhenguo said immediately.

"We want it too! Now is it! ”

Ding Yuqin and several women spoke at the same time.

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

"Okay! Then you try it first, and when you're done, I'll come back. ”

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

He left himself 300 keys and took out the remaining 82.

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

They are all awakening for the second time now, and this time it will consume 2 keys, and if they fail this time, they will have 3 keys to continue awakening......

Assuming that they have been failing, then these more than 80 keys can also awaken the four of them 5 times!

This may sound like a lot, but if it drags on until this point, their success rate is only 10% each time...... So in the end, a few people will awaken, Wang Tao is not easy to say, but give it a try and know!
