Chapter 559 Establishing communication between the two places

    ?Early the next morning, the military at Silver Snake Base was digging for cables at the military base. To be precise, they started last night.

    After all, it is a big deal whether the two bases can communicate. The earlier you get through, the earlier you can make profits.

    Lu Ping was very lucky. Fortunately, he had always occupied the original land of the military base and had not changed it much. It had basically remained the same, otherwise it would have been a lot of trouble.

    Wang Tao doesn''t know exactly how to achieve communication between the two places. This is a professional matter and requires professional people to do it. Wang Tao is not involved either, he just needs to wait for news. By the way, wait for Zhao Yue, the number one master here.

    Soon, a few days passed. Zhao Yue, who Ge Fuxing said would come back soon, never came back.

    Ge Fuxing was a little embarrassed. He had promised to introduce him to Wang Tao, but he still hasn''t come back yet. But he was also a little worried, fearing that the other party would encounter some danger outside.

    After all, he is the number one expert in the base. If he is lost outside, it will be a huge loss to the base. Not to mention, he also has something in his hand that can make other people stronger.

    "Forget it, I won''t wait any longer. I''ll go back first."

    Wang Tao said directly to Ge Fuxing.

    Although he really wanted to see this Zhao Yue, he never came back and might even have died outside, so it wouldn''t be a problem for him to wait here all the time.

    Establishing a communication bridge between Changhe Base and Silver Snake Base is a very important matter for both Silver Snake Base and Changhe Base. Wang Tao had to take all the incomprehensible data that Lu Ping gave him and go back to talk to the military at Changhe Base. Otherwise, they would be like looking for a needle in a haystack, with no way to contact them.

    So Wang Tao was not ready to wait any longer and had to go back first.

    If the Changhe Base can really contact the Silver Snake Base, then if Zhao Yue comes back, just ask Ge Fuxing to contact him directly, and he will just come over again.

    "Ah? Are you going back? It''s such a long distance... why don''t you stay at our base?"

    Ge Fuxing''s tone was a little worried. He was worried that if Wang Tao died on the way, would the matter of contacting Changhe Base be in trouble? Even if Wang Tao is not dead, the journey is long and it takes so long to go back and forth, so things can easily change...

    "No need, I have my own plan."

    Wang Tao didn''t plan to tell them about the Golden Eagle, because there was another Zhao Yue in the Silver Snake base. Wang Tao felt that this Zhao Yue had a big problem, so he couldn''t expose all his cards.

    "As long as you have a plan, why don''t you bring some of our local specialties back? I think you will like these things."

    Seeing that Wang Tao had decided to leave, Ge Fuxing said nothing more and just recommended the specialties of their base to Wang Tao.

    If the two bases can really communicate and have the opportunity to develop trade, they will definitely not be able to just buy things without selling things, otherwise the Changhe Base will directly control them economically. They also have to have their own core technology. These local products are their core technology. Wang Tao personally said before that Changhe Base does not have these things.

    "Of course, I will bring it up even if you don''t tell me."

    Wang Tao smiled and nodded.

    The souvenirs at Silver Snake Base are quite interesting, and he will definitely take some back.

    Therefore, Ge Fuxing and others immediately prepared a large number of local specialties for Wang Tao, such as tree insects, mutated wild rice, silver snake tree seedlings, and even a few silver snakes.

    They also invested money. After all, silver snakes are very rare and you may not be able to buy them if you have money. It all depends on luck. Especially what they prepared for Wang Tao was a living silver snake!

    This thing is very poisonous and can kill a third-level psychic in one bite. Even a fourth-level awakened person will lose half his life if bitten.

    After those snake catching teams encounter a silver snake, they will try to kill it by any means, so there are very few silver snakes alive.

    The appearance of these silver snakes is similar to that of non-venomous garter snakes. They are only about 40 to 50 centimeters in length. They are mainly black but have a vertical stripe. The stripes of a garter snake are yellow, while the stripes of a silver snake are silver.

    If someone suddenly sees this kind of snake, they may not be able to tell whether it is a garter snake or a silver snake. The venom of these two creatures is very different. If you are not careful, you may be poisoned directly.

    "It turns out to be the third level of strength..."

    But what surprised Wang Tao was that these silver snakes were all third-level elites. No wonder it can poison third-level humans.

    In addition to its poison, the Silver Snake''s physical combat power is relatively weak. It can be said that the technology tree is all about poison, so as long as you find them in advance and don''t get bitten by them, it is relatively simple to kill it.

    There are five silver snakes in total, and Wang Tao doesn’t know whether they are male or female. It would be great if they could breed little silver snakes. However, according to Ge Fuxing and others, they have tried artificial cultivation but have been unable to succeed.

    However, the technology in Changhe Base is more advanced, including biotechnology. Maybe you can give it a try after you return.

    Ge Fuxing also thoughtfully prepared an off-road vehicle for Wang Tao. After all, so much material was too much to carry on his back.

    Before leaving, Wang Tao called Shen Cuishan and quietly told her not to go out recently and to pay more attention to the situation in the Silver Snake base, and that he would contact her again soon.

    Shen Cuishan said that she understood that she was Wang Tao''s spy at the Silver Snake base. After all, Wang Tao saved her life twice, so she should help Wang Tao with some small things - this is really not a big deal to her, because she can create a lot of licking dogs, and when there are more people, there will naturally be more eyeliners. .

    "I''m leaving, you guys... take care of yourself."

    When leaving, Wang Tao patted their shoulders after seeing that Ge Fuxing and the others seemed to have more impurities in their bodies.

    If they were at Changhe Base, the impurities in their bodies wouldn''t even be able to get through the base''s door. In the Silver Snake base, there were no precise instruments, so there was no way to judge what was going on with their bodies.

    But there is no need to worry about them turning into zombies if the impurities in their bodies reach 100%, because they will be sacrificed...

    Wang Tao wanted to tell people like Ge Fuxing that they had become sacrifices and might die at any time. But Wang Tao thought about it again and finally said nothing.

    As far as Wang Tao knows, after becoming a sacrifice, there seems to be only one way to survive - to kill the user of the summoning altar.

    But this method is obviously difficult. If Zhao Yue finds out that they have this idea, Zhao Yue can kill them with just one thought. So it is impossible for them to kill Zhao Yue.

    If you tell them this matter, whether they believe it or not, they will definitely have some emotions when they see Zhao Yue in the future. If they are discovered, their death will be a trivial matter to Wang Tao, but it will be very troublesome to alert the snake.

    Wang Tao was still very wary of Zhao Yue, whom he had never met before.

    Wang Tao would not be afraid if it was a fifth-level awakened person who was promoted normally, but this Zhao Yue had obviously mastered a summoning altar and knew the specific usage of the summoning altar. Then has he improved his strength by summoning the altar?

    If he is now at level six, like Tian Hua before, then Wang Tao must be careful.

    Even more daring - since the Vulcan can use some special means to enhance the strength of others without using the summoning altar. So is this Zhao Yue already a "god"?

    The idea is bold, but not impossible.

    If this is the case, then whether Wang Tao can defeat the opponent is another matter.

    Of course, it is also possible that Zhao Yue simply wants to control Ge Fuxing and the others, so he uses the summoning altar for them. When the time is right, Zhao Yue will tell them the truth, and then indirectly control the entire Silver Snake base through them...

    But no matter what the possibility is, Zhao Yue must be on guard. Wang Tao doesn''t want to capsize in the gutter...

    "goodbye!"

    Seeing Wang Tao leaving with a car full of supplies, Ge Fuxing and others sighed. They actually wanted Wang Tao to stay at the Silver Snake base. After all, they have such strong combat effectiveness. Unfortunately, they already have an organization, and it is still a base stronger than the Silver Snake...

    "Finally, I saw news about another super-large survivor base. I hope he doesn''t die on the way..."

    …

    Wang Tao did not call the golden eagle immediately. He drove the car and wandered to the foot of the mountain, found a ruins, moved all the supplies from the car, and placed the car inside the ruins. Then Wang Tao blew a loud whistle.

    After a while, the golden eagle flew in front of Wang Tao.

    "Let''s go home."

    "Chirp~"

    The golden eagle is quite happy. It has not eaten anything good these days and can finally go home to eat meat.

    In fact, it wants to eat the snakes in the iron box. It can feel that the taste of these snakes must be very delicious. But it''s a pity that Wang Tao didn''t let it eat. This thing must be taken back to the base for research first. If it can be artificially bred, then it won''t be possible to eat as much as it wants in the future.

    There were no accidents along the way, and the golden eagle quickly flew back to Changhe Base.

    Wang Tao contacted Gu Yun in advance, and Gu Yun had already prepared a large amount of meat. He was waiting for Wang Tao at the door of the city hall with several committee members, senior officials of the city hall, and leaders of other forces.

    "Wang Tao, you went to Silver Snake Base? What is the specific situation there? Is it really a super large survivor base?"

    Before Wang Tao jumped down, Gu Yun and a large group of people rushed over to ask about the situation of Silver Snake Base.

    "The order of Silver Snake Base is incomparable with our base, but it has everything it should have, and it can be considered a qualified survivor base... Let''s go to the conference room and talk about it."

    Wang Tao jumped off the golden eagle''s back and took out the recorder with a smile.

    "good!"

    After letting Golden Eagle and Lightning enjoy the food obediently, Wang Tao followed Gu Yun to the conference room, and he also brought all the local products.

    Combined with the situation of the recorder, Wang Tao directly told them about the situation of Silver Snake Base.

    They all felt relieved after seeing that the Silver Snake Base did have a population of nearly 400,000. The base was built in a mutated forest, which could block the wind and snow, and ordinary people could survive.

    After all, they are all compatriots, and they must hope that the people at Silver Snake Base can live well as well.

    Now it seems that although the Silver Snake Base is a bit chaotic, the living conditions are a bit difficult, and people freeze to death from time to time... but ordinary people can indeed get some protection, which is already very good. Without the Silver Snake Base, these ordinary people would definitely not be able to survive.

    "Better than we imagined!"

    Gu Yun and others smiled.

    Wang Tao had told them about the Silver Snake Base before, but Wang Tao had never been there personally. He only heard what others said, so he was more conservative. Gu Yun and the others also speculated on the situation of Silver Snake Base with the worst possible outcome. Looking at it now, at least ordinary people still have living space and are not completely reduced to slaves, which is already very good.

    "But I have good news and bad news for you." Wang Tao paused and said, "The good news is that this Silver Snake base was expanded from a military base..."

    "Huh? Doesn''t that mean we can use the remaining military facilities and get in touch quickly?"

    After hearing Wang Tao''s words, everyone''s eyes lit up.

    "Well, that''s true. I''ve asked their military to start trying to contact them. This is the information they gave..."

    Wang Tao handed over some information given by the military at Silver Snake Base to the commander of the Fifth Army. They were the most professional in this regard.

    "Great! With these, I can''t say that we can contact them immediately, but at least it can save us a lot of time!"

    The commander of the fifth legion said with a smile.

    "Oh, by the way, there are also their local specialties..."

    Wang Tao introduced these local specialties to everyone.

    Everyone''s eyes lit up when they saw tree worms, mutated wild rice, silver snakes, etc. They had the same idea as Wang Tao. If they could research artificial planting and breeding, it would be so comfortable.

    However, Gu Yun did not forget what Wang Tao just said, and he quickly asked:

    "What''s the bad news you''re talking about?"

    "Bad news, of course the altar is summoned..."

    Wang Tao explained in detail the situation of the Silver Snake base summoning altar.

    When they heard that more than a hundred ordinary people and a dozen awakened people died in sacrifice, everyone was furious.

    But when they heard that several major figures in the Silver Snake Base had become sacrifices and could be sacrificed at any time, and that there might be a mastermind plotting against the Silver Snake Base, everyone was stunned.

    This Silver Snake base may be destroyed at any time!

    "We need to establish contact with the Silver Snake Base as soon as possible. If they all die and the Silver Snake Base falls into civil strife... we can send someone to take over and control the Silver Snake Base!"

    Gu Yun immediately looked at Wang Tao. Only Wang Tao''s golden eagle could travel between the two places quickly.

    "no problem."

    Wang Tao nodded.

    After the meeting, Changhe Base also became busy, preparing in advance for everything that might happen next.

    Time flies by, three days later.

    The Fifth Legion actually contacted the Silver Snake Base.

    Wang Tao quickly ran to the base command center.

    "Principal Wang, we are lucky to have contacted you!"

    The commander of the Fifth Legion laughed.

    "Niu beep!"

    After Wang Tao sighed in admiration, he put on his headphones and listened to the sounds from Silver Snake Base. He had no intention of letting the Silver Snake base know that he was back.

    The people at Silver Snake Base were very excited and confused. There seemed to be many people present. They asked a lot of questions, and many people asked about Wang Tao.

    The people on the Fifth Army Corps answered the questions patiently, but they didn''t say much about Wang Tao, nor did they reveal that Wang Tao had returned.

    Suddenly, Wang Tao heard an important message from these chaotic sounds.

    "Huh? I think I heard someone say...the number one master just came back?"
