Chapter 540 I’m a little self-aware

    “Eh? Where is Liu Bo?”

    Yu Li looked around for a week, suddenly feeling confused.

    “The person is missing?”

    ?His words made the others instantly nervous, and they subconsciously looked at Peng Nan.

    "He probably left the second space accidentally. I told him to follow me closely and don''t run around, so why didn''t he listen? Without my guidance after leaving, he couldn''t come back in again!"

    Peng Nan''s face suddenly became ugly. He was not concerned about Wang Tao''s safety, but he was afraid that Wang Tao would affect his plan. Although the probability was very small, it would still be troublesome if the zombies were alerted.

    “Will he affect our plan?”

    Others share these concerns.

    “It’s not a big problem! He can’t detonate the poison gas bomb in advance. Without the poison gas bomb, it is impossible for him to kill the fifth-level zombie lord. Now, he is probably hiding somewhere and shivering..."

    Peng Nan immediately comforted him, knowing that he couldn''t worry everyone at this time.

    Hearing what he said, everyone else also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Wang Tao doesn''t affect their plan to hunt down the fifth-level zombie lord, whether Wang Tao dies or not has nothing to do with them.

    Shen Cuishan had a look of pity on her face. She felt that there was a chance to develop the big guy into her own dog, but he might die at the hands of zombies. It was a pity...

    Since it had no impact, everyone stopped thinking about it and quickly installed the remaining gas bombs and waited for them to detonate.

    …

    At this time, Wang Tao successfully reunited with Jiang Shixue and Lightning.

    “The three fifth-level zombie lords are in different locations, and one of them is right here…”

    ?Jiang Shixue pointed to a factory building in front of her.

    ?Wang Tao walked straight in with a swagger.

    lived~)

    The moment he entered the factory, Wang Tao was discovered by the fifth-level zombie lord.

    ??The zombie roared and rushed over.

    【HP: 300000/300000】

    【Blue amount: 200000/200000】

    【Level: Level 5·Lord】

    【Awakening: Ice Body】

    【Body of Ice: All basic attributes are improved in all aspects, ice attribute defense is greatly improved, and attacks are accompanied by ice attribute damage】

    【Status: Frozen Halo】

    ??This is a burly frozen zombie that doesn''t look like anything special. But its awakening is a bit interesting, it has both system and ice elements. However, its HP is not high, so it poses no threat to Wang Tao.

    ?Looking at the zombies charging towards him, Wang Tao did not dodge, but suddenly a black sword appeared in his hand, and he stabbed it hard.

    【-154384】

    【Curse: Bleeding】

    ??The sword cut off 150,000 blood, and even Wang Tao was surprised.

    ??After his recent strength improvement, he has not fought against a fifth-level lord. Wang Tao is not very clear about how strong his strength is among fifth-level lords. Now I am somewhat self-aware.

    ??This fifth-level lord zombie was directly chopped away by Wang Tao''s sword. Its eyes, which were already dull, seemed to be even duller. It probably couldn''t figure out why the human in front of it was so strong.

    ?Wang Tao took advantage of the victory and pursued it. He dodged and appeared in front of the fifth-level lord zombie again. He clenched the handle of the knife with both hands and stabbed it again.

    ?【-145616】

    【0/300000】

    With the second blow, the health bar of this fifth-level lord zombie was immediately cleared.

    ?Wang Tao put away his sword, but he still had some unfinished ideas.

    "ah?"

    ?Jiang Shixue looked at Wang Tao with big eyes. He knew that Wang Tao was very strong. But after all, he was a fifth-level zombie lord, but he was hacked to death by Wang Tao with two swords...

    “Haha, this zombie is too weak!”

    Looking at the cute Jiang Shixue, Wang Tao smiled and ruffled her hair.

    ?The fifth level is different from the fifth level. In the same fifth level, some zombies have 1 million health and some zombies have 100,000 health. There must be a gap in strength between them.

    After all, Wang Tao can now kill a level 6 Destruction (Destruction) with 1 million health points, but he is still not able to deal with a level 5 zombie lord with 300,000 health points.

    After quickly putting away the loot and letting the lightning swallow the body, Wang Tao waved.

    “Let’s go on.”

    Under the leadership of Jiang Shixue, Wang Tao soon found the second level five zombie lord.

    ??The appearance of this lord zombie is different from the one just now, but its attributes are exactly the same.

    “This zombie has exactly the same strength as the zombie just now. How about you give it a try?”

    ?Looking at Jiang Shixue who seemed a little eager to try, Wang Tao said immediately.

    “Okay~”

    ??Jiang Shixue did not refuse. Before she finished speaking, she had already appeared in front of the lord zombie.

    ??This fifth-level zombie lord discovered the uninvited guest, but its speed was too slow compared to Jiang Shixue.

    Just a few seconds later, this fifth-level zombie lord had only a trace of blood left.

    ?Wang Tao''s eyes instantly shot out two high-temperature rays, and he almost grabbed the head.

    ?Jiang Shixue licked her lips, as if she still had something to say.

    “Not bad, not bad! Your strength is already very good!”

    ?Wang Tao praised.

    ??Jiang Shixue also has the ability to fight across levels, and this fifth-level zombie lord is no match for her.

    “Hey hey~”

    ?Jiang Shixue smiled sheepishly.

    She felt that she was still much worse than Wang Tao, but at least she had caught up with Wang Tao and did not fall behind.

    “Let’s go on to the next one.”

    ??The last level five zombie lord still has exactly the same attributes.

    ?This time Wang Tao asked Lightning to take action, and he quickly beat the zombies half to death. Then there is Wang Tao who skillfully snatches heads, collects trophies, and devours corpses with lightning.

    “It’s a pity that there is no sixth-order lord…”

    After dealing with these three zombie lords, Wang Tao personally searched the factory again. After confirming that there were indeed no zombies above the fifth-level lord here, he was a little disappointed.

    ??Although he currently lacks level 5 crystal cores, he hopes to encounter level 6 zombies. Hunting level five zombies is indeed not challenging, and even a little boring.

    “Then, will you go find those people next?”

    ?Jiang Shixue asked curiously.

    “Let’s get rid of those fifth-level elite zombies quickly, and then just leave without worrying about them.”

    ?Wang Tao followed them before purely out of curiosity. Now that they have satisfied Wang Tao''s curiosity, there is no need to follow them. Wang Tao is not interested in knowing whether there will be internal strife between them. After all, he is not the world policeman.

    As for whether Wang Tao robbed them of their spoils, Wang Tao felt that it definitely did not count. After all, Wang Tao''s original purpose was to come here to hunt zombies. With or without them, these fifth-level lord zombies would have to die.

    The only difference may be that without them, Wang Tao would kill all the zombies himself. But since they had laid the trap, they couldn''t let them return empty-handed, so Wang Tao left all the zombies below level five to them, so that they could get some crystal nuclei.

    ?The fifth-level elite zombies in the factory were basically not far from the three fifth-level lords. Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue took action immediately and quickly eliminated all these fifth-level elite zombies.

    After making sure that nothing was missing, Wang Tao left directly. Peng Nan and the others should still be inside, because the countdown they set still has more than half an hour. But Wang Tao was not interested in meeting them again.

    After leaving the factory, the lightning immediately grew in size, carrying Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue and rushing towards Feishahu Prison.

    The golden eagle is not here for the time being, and I don’t know where to go to play. Although Wang Tao could call it over quickly, it was not necessary for a distance of more than ten kilometers. Lightning is equally fast.

    Not long after, Wang Tao came to Feishahu Prison again.

    At this time, inside the prison.

    Liu Bo was pacing back and forth in the hall, feeling a little anxious.

    ?When Wang Tao asked him if he had any trouble, the first thing he thought of was the factory. But after all, there is a fifth-level lord in the factory, and he is too powerful! If Wang Tao is just being polite, there is no point in saying it...

    But considering that this matter was really related to the survival of the base, he finally told Wang Tao.

    ??If Wang Tao is just talking, then he will not suffer any loss. But if Wang Tao can really help him solve it, then this will solve the only threat to their Feisha Lake base at present, and Feisha Lake base can survive for a long time!

    As the saying goes, all disappointments come from hope. If there was no hope, forget it, but Wang Tao gave him hope, which made him feel very complicated now.

    ??He hoped that Wang Tao had not lied to him and could really deal with the fifth-level lord zombies, but he didn''t know Wang Tao''s specific strength and didn''t know whether Wang Tao could do it...

    ?But no matter what, he still hoped that Wang Tao would not get hurt. After all, he just took refuge in the priest Wang Tao...

    While worrying about gains and losses, his subordinates suddenly reported that Wang Tao was back.

    "So soon? Yes, today I should go investigate. The specific time to do it must be discussed again. After all, I am a fifth-level lord, so I have to make complete preparations in advance..."

    Liu Bo felt somewhat disappointed when he heard that Wang Tao had returned so soon. However, he quickly found a reason and hurriedly went to greet Wang Tao.

    “The fifth-level lord zombies in the factory have been eliminated.”

    But the first words Wang Tao said when they met immediately shocked Liu Bo.

    “Ah? Solved, solved?”

    Has it been solved in such a short period of time? This seems like less than an hour, right? real or fake?

    Liu Bo even doubted whether Wang Tao had lied to him, but there was no benefit to Wang Tao from lying to him...

    “What? Do you think I’m lying to you?”

    ?Wang Tao raised his eyebrows.

    "No, no, no, since the priest said it has been solved, it must be solved! Thank you, priest! If there is anything you need us to do, priest, just ask, we will not refuse!"

    Liu Bo quickly put on a smile.

    He felt that Wang Tao had probably really eliminated the fifth-level lord zombie! Wang Tao''s strength is so terrifying!

    ?However, for safety reasons, he decided to wait until Wang Tao left before going to take a look in person. After all, this is a security issue related to the entire Feisha Lake base, so we can''t be careless.

    "I don''t have any instructions -" Wang Tao seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly changed his words, "No, there is still something you need to do."

    “Please give me your orders!”

    Liu Bo''s face suddenly straightened.

    He knew that since he had taken refuge in Wang Tao, he would definitely help Wang Tao with things. He just wishes things weren''t so difficult...

    “The specific thing is... try to expand your population as much as possible, but the population in your base is still too small. Then make Feisha Lake bigger, and our strength is too weak.”

    ?Wang Tao shook his head and said.

    "Well…"

    ?Liu Bo was a little confused. Isn''t this task the same as the one given to him by his previous boss?

    ?The task given to him by his original boss was to recruit as many survivors as possible, expand the Feisha Lake base, and cultivate people with superpowers and even awakened people. When the time is right, you can cooperate with the above to do a big thing.

    ??The task given to him by Wang Tao seems to be no different from the task given by his former boss!

    Sure enough, this Reverend Wang Siduo knew about that “big event”! He pretended not to know before, most likely because he wanted to see how much he knew about this important matter!

    This important matter is obviously very confidential. Deacons are not worthy of knowing about it. If you know too much, you may be silenced!

    ——

    At this moment, Liu Bo thought a lot.

    ?Wang Tao had no idea that Liu Bo had such a rich imagination. He simply felt that people with excessive impurities in their bodies were pitiful, and many bases did not want them. Since Feisha Lake Base is willing to take in such people, let them take in more of them. Even if they don''t have enough supplies, Wang Tao can provide some supplies.

    Liu Bo said before that they routinely check the body impurities of these survivors every day, just like clocking in at work. If someone''s body impurities are too high, they will be isolated. When ordinary people become zombies, they are basically ordinary zombies, and they can deal with them completely.

    After all, their base is small and there are few people. This rule is very simple to implement. Therefore, safety can basically be guaranteed.

    "Then I''ll leave first. I''ll bring you a radio next time. If you have any questions then, you can contact me."

    There is definitely no way to contact him by radio from Changhe Base, but since it is confirmed that there is a Silver Snake Base with a population of hundreds of thousands, we will definitely find a way to establish contact in the future, such as borrowing the optical cables buried underground by the military. Then Liu Bo can be contacted by him.

    “Thank you, Master Priest!”

    Hearing this, Liu Bo suddenly became excited. It was obvious that the priest really accepted him as his subordinate.

    When his previous boss contacted him, he always sent someone to leave a message at a fixed location. He rarely even saw the person sent by his boss, let alone his boss. He still didn''t know what his former boss looked like. ...The former boss seems to be afraid that he will expose the other party. But this Pastor Wang is different. Next time, he will give me a radio so that I can contact him directly! What is a pattern? This is!

    "Um."

    ?Wang Tao nodded, and then, with Liu Bo''s farewell, he left the Feisha Lake base directly.

    He was going to go to the fissure where Mammoth Base was located. The purpose of his coming out this time was to go to that fissure. Prison bases and factory zombies are all accidents.

    As for the Silver Snake Base, Wang Tao knows the coordinates from Liu Bo and can go there at any time, but he won’t go there yet.

    Let him quickly explore the crack and then go to the Silver Snake base if he has time. Anyway, the Silver Snake base is there and there is no way to escape.

    ??And he is currently short of crystal cores. He also wants to advance to the sixth level, so improving his strength is the first priority.

    After leaving the prison, Wang Tao blew a loud whistle.

    After waiting for a long time, I saw a huge golden eagle flying towards here from a distance.

    "where have you been?"

    ?Wang Tao is a little curious.

    “啾~”

    ??Golden Eagle explained.

    "Huh?"

    ?Wang Tao was suddenly surprised when he heard what Golden Eagle said.

    The golden eagle said that it discovered a group of corpses led by the zombies of the sixth-level lord, and that it had been following them in the sky.

    “Then where is this group of corpses?”

    ?Wang Tao’s eyes were bright.

    He just wanted to find a sixth-level zombie, and here he is!

    "But you said that the group of zombies entered an abandoned factory...could it be the factory I went to before? Uh...it seems true."

    After listening to Jin Diao’s words, Wang Tao’s previous doubts were suddenly solved.

    ? He ??felt that the three fifth-level lord zombies in the factory could coexist harmoniously, and there was a high probability that there would be higher-level zombies suppressing them.

    But he didn’t find the sixth-level zombies and thought he had guessed wrong.

    But in fact, his guess was correct, it was just because the sixth-level zombies were out...

    "Let''s go, let''s go there again! By the way, now that the sixth-level zombies have passed, I wonder if those people are still alive..."
