Chapter 472 Hard Stone
Although the Venom Horn Gun is a gun, it is more like a cannon. Wang Tao picked it up easily with one hand, but it wasn't heavy.
Wang Tao studied for a while, and by the time Xiao Hei came over, he already roughly understood how to operate the gun.
The firing speed of the Venom Horn Gun is not very fast, it can fire once every three seconds. But this speed is still much faster than that of an air rifle.
However, unlike the air rifle, the venom trumpet gun requires "bullets", and this bullet is the crystal core. It is similar to the crystal energy weapons produced by the research institute, both of which require the use of crystal cores as ammunition.
Crystal nuclei can be placed at the tail of the Venom Horn Gun. Since this is a fifth-level gun, only fifth-level crystal nuclei can be placed. In terms of energy consumption, a fifth-order crystal core can fire 30-60 shots depending on its quality. The better the quality of the core used, the slower the durability will decrease. Therefore, if possible, it is better to use high-quality crystal cores.
Compared with the two crystal energy guns in Wang Tao's hand, this venom trumpet gun is obviously stronger. It fires faster than the crystal energy gun, and the bullets it shoots are poisonous, and it also comes with a poison rain ability.
The ability of Poison Rain is a bit interesting. It will instantly consume all the energy in the crystal core, and then convert this energy into venom bullets and shoot them out.
In other words, if Wang Tao uses an orange fifth-level crystal core as ammunition and has a total of 60 venom bullets, then after he uses Poison Rain, he can shoot out all 60 bullets instantly. .
This power is probably exaggerated. After all, it is sixty rounds of venom bullets.
If you encounter a large monster and hit all sixty venom bullets, then even a fifth-level monster may not be able to withstand it, right?
Of course, there is a price for using this ultimate move.
First of all, a fifth-order crystal core will be consumed instantly. The number of fifth-order crystal nuclei is very small, and the price is also expensive. This is not shooting, this is seriously burning money.
The second is the cooling time. There is a one-day cooling time after each use of Poison Rain, so this ultimate move can only be used once a day, and the restriction is quite large.
Lastly, and most importantly. After using Poison Rain, durability will be consumed faster for a certain period of time.
Wang Tao has not yet found a way to increase durability, but durability is still very important to him. If the durability consumption becomes faster, causing the gun's durability to be reset to zero and directly scrapped, then it will be a bit of a loss.
So this ultimate move is best used at critical moments, and you cannot continue to use the gun after using the ultimate move. You have to let the gun rest, otherwise it may be scrapped...
" Lightning, come over for dinner!”
Wang Tao shouted on the intercom.
A moment later, a black shadow quickly entered the cave and fell on Wang Tao.
"Eat."
Wang Tao touched Lightning's dog's head, and the other party immediately opened his mouth wide and quickly swallowed the fifth-level mutant plant on the ground.
“Huh?”
But after Lightning swallowed the corpse, Wang Tao suddenly discovered that the root of the poisonous morning glory was still there, and it had a blood bar. It was just under the body of the morning glory. Wang Tao didn't see it.
【100000/100000】
"Is it possible that this thing can continue to grow morning glory?"
If this is true, then this is a good thing!
At this time, Wei Zhenguo and others also rushed over. They obviously heard what Wang Tao just said on the walkie-talkie.
"Is everyone okay?"
"It's okay! We are just a few people dealing with a fourth-level lord. If there is any problem, then we will really kill it with a piece of tofu. ”
Xiang Hongbin laughed.
Exploring the caves is not just playing tricks. Although they are confident in their own strength, they are not blind. Therefore, although they are separated from Wang Tao, they also form separate teams to fight. Several of them attacked the fourth-order lord plants at the same time, especially since these plants couldn't run away... they were basically manageable.
"It's okay."
Wang Tao nodded with a smile, and then briefly explained the situation just now.
"Such a weird mutated plant..."
Everyone became wary when they heard that this mutated morning glory could move like a snake.
As for the roots left behind, they also had the same idea as Wang Tao, thinking that another mutated morning glory might grow.
"Just keep it, I'll take a look at it later."
Wang Tao didn't destroy the rhizome. He was going to get a big stone to block the cave to prevent subsequent damage. People came in and ruined his experiment.
But just blocking the entrance will definitely not work. Most people have a rebellious mentality. The more you refuse to let in, the more others will want to come in.
So Wang Tao is going to carve a few words on the door. He believes that as a principal, there should be no teacher or student who doesn't understand this.
“You go and carve words, and we’ll get a stone!”
Wei Zhenguo and the others started to help.
The entrance to this cave is not too big, and it is deep in the stone forest. Just find a big stone to block it.
“Okay.”
Wang Tao took out a long sharp knife and thrust it into a relatively smooth stone wall outside the cave.
Pfft——
The tip of the knife penetrated the stone wall, but Wang Tao's expression was a bit wonderful.
Although he didn't say that he was attacking with all his strength just now, he didn't hold back too much. With his sword as a fifth-level awakener, only about one centimeter of the blade tip was inserted?
Something's wrong, there's something wrong with these stones!
These stones are gray in color and feel cool to the touch, not much different from ordinary stones. But with this hardness, it feels no worse than those ordinary fourth-level shields in Wang Tao's hands!
Could it be said that these stones are also good things?
On the other side, Wei Zhenguo and others found a pretty good stone. The stone is big enough to block the entrance of the cave, but it is not in good shape and cannot be blocked tightly. Better to fix it.
So Hong Bin took the initiative to ask for help, and a machete popped out of his mechanical arm.
The weapons on his body are made of some advanced alloys used in the research. If you don't look at attributes such as durability and attached abilities, just in terms of material and sharpness, it is no worse than the weapons made by Wang Tao using the design drawings. .
A pile of calculated data appeared in Xiang Hongbin's blue eyes.
Then he raised his arm, stabbed a certain part of the big rock with a knife.
According to his calculations, if he inserts it from here, he can split the big stone into two halves instantly with the help of skill.
Bang!
Danglang——
The muffled sound was accompanied by a crisp sound. Looking at the long knife broken into two sections, Xiang Hongbin was stunned.
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
Others heard the noise and looked over.
"My knife... is broken? No, really or not, is this rock so hard?"
Xiang Hongbin's face was full of shock.
"The knife is broken?" Wei Zhenguo and the others quickly gathered around.
I saw Xiang Hongbin picking up the broken knife. Not only was the knife broken, but the tip of the knife was curled. And a shallow white mark appeared on the big stone in front of it.
“……”
Everyone was a little confused when they saw this situation.
Their previous battle did not last long. And they all aimed at the mutated plants and didn't pay much attention to the stones.
Unexpectedly, this stone actually shattered Xiang Hongbin’s knife!
“Let me give it a try!”
He Jijun came over carrying a scimitar that Wang Tao had given him before.
Bang!
He Jijun quickly slashed with his sword, but this time the sword did not break and the blade did not curl. But there was only a mark of about one or two millimeters on the stone.
He struck the stone with all his strength, and only a mark appeared?
“There’s something wrong with this stone!”
Based on He Jijun’s strength, if it were an ordinary stone, he would definitely chop it up and explode it with one strike. How could this be the case?
Several people couldn't understand it, so they hurriedly went to find Wang Tao.
Wang Tao has just finished carving a few lines of large characters on the wall.
"The cave is a test site. Do not enter without permission - Wang Taoliu..." After Xiang Hongbin read out the words engraved by Wang Tao, he was suddenly stunned. "I'll go! You can still do it..." Carving such deep and big characters!"
Xiang Hongbin did not doubt that the stone in front of Wang Tao was different from what they had just seen. After all, Wang Tao was indeed much stronger than them.
"You also discovered that there is something wrong with these stones. They are too hard!"
Wang Tao shook his head first, and then raised his eyebrows.
“Perhaps this is a kind of ore that we don’t know about? If this stone can be used to make armor, the defense power will not be low!”
“Huh? That’s right. ! This thing is harder than my knife. If it can be made into a weapon..."
Everyone's eyes were bright.
They do not lack equipment. After all, they all wear level 4 and level 5 Night Demon suits, but the rest of the base is still lacking.
For example, the students who came out this time only wore thick clothes to protect themselves from the cold. If we really want to talk about defense, it's obviously not enough. If they can all wear this kind of defensive equipment, their combat effectiveness will definitely be greatly improved...
"But having said that, this stone is so hard. With the industrial level of our base, can it be processed again? ? "
Xiang Hongbin frowned.
"Put it in a steel-making furnace and burn it hard. It should turn into water. It's just not convenient when cutting..."
He Jijun touched the stone and said.
Speaking of this issue, Wang Tao suddenly thought of the venom that the morning glory spit out when he just fought with it. When the venom falls on the stone, it will directly corrode a small pit. If you get more venom, maybe you can cut it quickly?
"Look at this trumpet gun. This thing can shoot venom, and the venom can corrode stones..."
Wang Tao handed the venom trumpet gun to everyone, and he himself came Xiang Hongbin's eyes glowed red in front of the stone he was looking for before.
Zi——
Two high-temperature rays shot out instantly and penetrated hard into the stone. Three seconds later, there was just a bang, and the big stone split into two halves, with the cut smooth, like a knife.
"Good boy! I had no idea about Wang Tao's fifth-level strength before, but now I understand..."
Xiang Hongbin was speechless.
A few people moved the cut stones to block the entrance of the cave.
"This big stone is lighter than I thought! If this is a new material with light weight and high defense..."
"It's really possible. But We have to let them study it carefully.”
Wang Tao took out his long knife, used dark energy, and slashed several times at the rocks on the other side, and soon obtained several small stones.
If you don't use any energy, just relying on strength and the sharpness of the knife, Wang Tao can carve words on the stones, but it is also a bit laborious to cut these stones.
After collecting all the stones that were divided into small pieces, Wang Tao took everyone to wander in the stone forest.
After killing this fifth-level mutant plant, he originally planned to go through the stone forest and explore deeper, because Xiao Hei told him that there was a fifth-level plant lord here. But since these stones seem to be good things, Wang Tao is not in a hurry to leave. He wants to clean up all the monsters in the stone forest and avoid any trouble when he goes back to carry the stones.
The area of the stone forest was much larger than Wang Tao imagined. It took them some time to search the entire stone forest.
"These things can really be hidden!"
Wei Zhenguo sighed. If Wang Tao and Han Rui weren't in the team, they wouldn't have been able to discover many mutant plants. If it is missed, something will definitely happen when someone comes to transport the stone.
“Indeed, although these mutated plants cannot move, compared with zombies, they are too hidden and even have a lot of camouflage. I really don’t understand how they can still use camouflage in such a dark environment... ...What a shameless person!"
Xiang Hongbin complained a little.
“But this trumpet gun is ridiculously powerful. It is indeed a fifth-level weapon. Even those fourth-level lords can’t hold it!”
Speaking of this trumpet gun, everyone nodded with satisfaction.
With this gun, as long as you find the location of the mutated plant, you can kill enemies from a distance like Wang Tao. Although the range and power of this gun are not as good as Wang Tao's, its attack range is farther than others, and you can enjoy the pleasure of long-range sniping.
However, this also has a disadvantage, that is, it consumes too much. They all felt a little distressed as they watched the color of the fifth-order crystal core on the gun gradually dim.
Of course, after cleaning up, the harvest is still good, which can completely offset the consumption.
Since Wang Tao has reached level 5, there is no reward for killing level 4 lords, so he gave the heads of these mutated plants to his teammates. A lot of various crystal nuclei, awakening energy beads, etc. were exploded, plus the awakening keys obtained by teammates, so the overall harvest was not bad.
The only pity is that some mutated plants will explode some materials, but because they were not killed by Wang Tao, there are no corresponding design drawings, so these materials cannot be used. Wang Tao was going to give all these materials to Qu Shilin. She must like it...
"The stone forest has been cleaned up. I have left a message at the entrance where we came. If anyone comes over later, You should see it. Then let’s go deeper.”
Wang Tao said to the crowd.
“Okay!”
Everyone is looking forward to this cave more and more.
Xiao Hei was still allowed to explore the way ahead. In this dark environment, Xiao Hei was at home like a fish in water.
Not long after, news came from Xiao Hei again.
"Found a downward passage? Is there some dangerous atmosphere in it?"
Wang Tao suddenly raised his eyebrows.
