Chapter 483 Testing Fruit
Thinking of the introduction of [Growing Fruit], Wang Tao thought that maybe he could use mutant plants to test it. After all, there are many mutant plants here. And he currently has two [Growth Fruits] in his hand. Judging from the 50% success rate, it has to be one, right?
Just do what you think of. After Wang Tao packed up the loot, he went to look for mutant plants again.
But after all, there are only two fruits. Adhering to the principle of using steel on the blade, he naturally ignored the mutant plant elites. At the very least, they must be mutant plant lords, and preferably Fifth level. After all, the fourth-level lord is no match for Wang Tao, even if his strength improves.
Not long after, Wang Tao encountered mutant plants again, but this was a group of fifth-level mutant plant elites.
After confirming that there was no lord behind him, Wang Tao did not use [Scorching Eyes] anymore, but rushed forward with a thick steel whip.
A moment later, all these plants were smashed by Wang Tao, leaving them in a mess.
Wang Tao continues to explore.
But the more he wanted it, the less he got it. Wang Tao really wanted to meet the fifth-level lord, preferably two, but he had been looking for a long time, and he didn’t know how many fifth-level elites he had killed. But not even a fifth-level lord was seen.
And Wang Tao discovered that this second floor was different from the first floor. It seemed to be much smaller. When he was on the first floor, he couldn't feel the boundaries at all, as if it was an infinitely wide space.
But on this second floor, he has hit walls in three directions in succession. Except for the first stone wall that seems to be climbable, the other two stone walls are connected to the ceiling and have no place to climb... Moreover, Wang Tao Nor could any entrance to the third level, if any, be found.
He is now walking in the last direction. If he continues to hit the wall, it means two problems -
This second level of space has been explored by him alone; I think To continue exploring the second floor, you will most likely have to climb over the flat stone wall you saw before.
Wang Tao does not want to finish exploring the second level so quickly. He also wants to continue killing fifth-level mutant plants. His [Growth Fruit] has not had a chance to test yet...
Again After a while, Wang Tao saw good news and bad news.
The good news is that he saw another fifth-level mutant plant lord, two more! His plan can be implemented.
The bad news is that the two fifth-level mutant plants here are near the last stone wall, which is directly connected to the ceiling. In other words, this second level was really explored by Wang Tao alone and his dog, and the mutated plants were almost killed by Wang Tao. On the entire second floor, there are only the last two fifth-level mutant plant lords left...
Wang Tao is helpless, and he doesn't know if he can find such a place to hunt fifth-level lords again. But at least there are two fifth-level mutant plant lords, which is pretty good.
After Wang Tao thought about it, Wang Tao did not go to hunt immediately. Instead, he contacted Ding Yuqin and planned to call Ding Yuqin and the others over.
The second level has been determined to be safe. It is just two fifth-level mutant lords. Wang Tao can deal with it alone, so naturally it will not pose any threat to them. Let them fight more fifth-level lords. It’s also good to accumulate some experience.
When Wang Tao arrived at the entrance to the second floor, Ding Yuqin and the others happened to arrive. Asking them to park the car outside, everyone followed Wang Tao down.
"Something is wrong here..."
"My body suddenly felt a lot heavier..."
"I feel like I am being suppressed..."
" …”
After entering the second floor, everyone subconsciously spoke.
Wang Tao suddenly frowned. When they discovered this passage before, Xiang Hongbin and the others also said that the second floor made them feel very uncomfortable, as if they were suppressed. If they came to the second floor, their combat power would be greatly reduced. It should have an impact.
What Wang Tao thought at the time was that there might be too much black mist, which made people without dark attributes uncomfortable.
But when they really reached the second level, Wang Tao discovered that they were really suppressed——
[Suppression: The strength is limited and can only exert 50 %】
[Suppression: The strength is limited and can only be used at 55%]
[Suppression: The strength is limited and can only be used at 60%]
[……]
There is a "suppression" state on everyone's heads. The minimum strength they can exert is 50%, and the maximum is only 70%... This suppression state seems to be random? Anyway, Wang Tao can't find any pattern for the time being.
As for animals like Lightning, Xiao Hei, and Xiao Bing, although they are very vigilant and look like they are facing a formidable enemy, they have not been suppressed, and their strength is still at normal levels.
This made Wang Tao frown. He originally thought that maybe others had not awakened the dark attribute, so they were affected by the black mist. But now it seems that it doesn’t look like Black Mist. After all, Lightning and the others are fine...
"Your strength has been weakened..."
Wang Tao briefly explained to them, this Suddenly everyone was a little panicked.
Strength can only be known by fighting. Therefore, you may not feel it very clearly at ordinary times. At most, it feels like something is not quite right. However, if you wait until the battle, you will find out that something is wrong. It will be too late.
Fortunately, Wang Tao notified them in advance so that they could be mentally prepared. But even so, I am still very panicked. After all, strength is the basis of survival. Without strength in this place, it would be really fatal!
"But don't worry, I have cleaned up all the mutant plants on the second level. They are safe for the time being. Only the last two fifth-level mutant plant lords are left..."
While comforting, Wang Tao asked They tested it.
Then he discovered that this suppression should have nothing to do with the black mist. Even if he removed all the black mist around him, Ding Yuqin and the others were still suppressed. The black mist will only make them uncomfortable, but will not suppress their strength. But I am not affected at all...
There are many differences between Wang Tao and others. For example, he has awakened three times and others have awakened once; he has the most awakening energy...
But The biggest difference is just one thing - he is a fifth-level awakened person, while the others are fourth-level awakened people!
Therefore, Wang Tao feels that this situation is most likely related to level. Perhaps there is some kind of "rule" for humans on the second level. This rule suppresses the fourth-level awakened people. Only the fifth-level awakened people can exert their full strength...
I want to prove whether this conclusion is correct. , it’s actually not difficult. Wang Tao will go back and find some third-level and second-level superpowers to try and see if and how much they are suppressed, then you can see...
But that will happen later. , the first task now is to deal with the two fifth-level mutant lords.
Wang Tao led everyone to the vicinity of the two mutant plants. He let the surrounding black mist disperse, allowing everyone to see the target.
These are two trees that look the same. They are black overall. They are about five meters tall. They are very strong and feel a little short and fat. There are dense black leaves on the tree, and among those leaves, there are some smooth black fruits...
[HP: 400000/400000]
[Mana: 200000/200000]
[Level: Level 5·Lord]
[Awakening: Seed Shot]
[Seed Shot: Shoot your own seeds to cause damage]
These two mutated trees both have 400,000 health points, so their strength is obviously not weak.
And it is different from other mutant plants that Wang Tao has encountered before. The mutant plants that he has seen before can all move the upper part, but only the lower part of the roots cannot move, but their roots are hidden. Better, not easy to find.
Looking at the appearance of these two big trees, they should be completely unable to move.
This is naturally good news for Wang Tao and the others. They cannot move and have such a large size... They are the target of everyone's attacks.
But one problem is that their awakening is a long-range attack!
No wonder they can't move at all. It turns out to be because they have long-range attack methods.
Wang Tao told everyone about the situation of the two mutated trees and asked everyone to take precautions.
Then his eyes glowed with red light, and two high-temperature rays instantly shot towards one of the mutated trees. Others also used their own long-range attack methods. If they had no other means, they used guns to attack the same big tree.
Since the two mutated trees here cannot move, there is no need to attack them at the same time. Just attack the nearest one and destroy them one by one.
Zizi——
【-15203】
【-15392】
【-15611】
【……】
This big tree has a very high defense, and Wang Tao's high-temperature rays can only cause fifteen thousand damage.
The damage done by others is even lower, especially those who use guns. A bullet can only cause dozens of points of damage...
And this mutated tree has the ability to restore blood. Yes, although the health recovery is not much, bullets are basically ineffective against it.
The mutated tree's blood regeneration was a bit beyond Wang Tao's expectations, but it was not a big problem. No matter how fast it regenerated blood, it could not compare to his own attacks. It only takes ten seconds of high-temperature rays to kill it!
However, it was obviously impossible for the mutated tree to be attacked by Wang Tao in vain. Just a second after Wang Tao and others attacked it, the mutated tree shook instantly, and the black leaves on its body made a rustling sound. At the same time, the black fruits were completely exposed, and then, with a "bang" sound, the fruits exploded. And as the fruit exploded, something like a steel ball flew towards Wang Tao!
Wang Tao had warned them a long time ago, so they were already prepared for the big tree attack and hid directly behind some boulders.
Although these stones are not as hard as the stones in the stone forest, they are not much different. They are obviously a natural defense.
But what Wang Tao didn't expect was that when a seed fell on the stone, it made a big hole in the stone! When several seeds fell on a stone at the same time, the huge stone shattered with a bang!
"I'll go! It's such a high damage!"
Xiang Hongbin was a little stunned. In his prime state, he couldn't leave too many marks on this kind of stone, but Only a few seeds of the mutated tree caused such a big rock to explode.
"Everyone lie down on the ground!"
Wang Tao immediately asked everyone to lie down.
There are a lot of rocks here. Although [Seed Shot] can destroy the rocks, it will take a lot of effort to destroy so many rocks.
Everyone waited for a moment, and the sound of shooting finally slowly disappeared. Wang Tao raised his head and observed carefully. He saw new fruits appearing on the two big trees. These fruits were very small, but they were getting bigger at a speed visible to the naked eye!
“The skill has entered the cool-down period?”
Wang Tao did not hesitate and immediately called for everyone to attack.
“Attack!”
Whoosh——
Various long-range attacks instantly fell on the mutated tree. The damage from other people’s attacks could at most offset the mutation. The tree's ability to restore blood and Wang Tao's high-temperature rays are the main means of attack.
But just a few seconds later, the fruits on the mutated tree began to explode again.
Wang Tao once again asked people to get down.
Another violent explosion sounded, and a lot of rocks in front of everyone were blown up.
After the explosion stopped, Wang Tao raised his head again and the high-temperature ray attacked again.
Actually, Wang Tao thinks that when Catching Fire is activated, he should be able to engage in close combat, but if he is too close, and two mutated trees use this all-round, indiscriminate seed shooting at the same time, he may not be able to do so. Place to hide.
So there is no need to take this risk. Just use long-range attacks honestly, which is nothing more than spending more awakening energy.
Wang Tao used [Scorching Eyes] three times, each time lasting a few seconds. The big tree could not move, so it was full of damage, and now he still had 150,000 blood left.
Wang Tao immediately stopped attacking, and before the fruit on the mutated tree had grown up, he threw a [Growing Fruit] over it.
Wang Tao used his strength well and threw the fruit directly at the foot of the mutated tree.
“I don’t know if this mutated tree can eat it...”
The swaying body of the big tree seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then a thick branch stretched out and quickly rolled up [Growing fruits] are stuffed into the dense leaves.
"Eat?"
Before Wang Tao had time to be happy, he saw the big tree suddenly shaking crazily, and the word "poisoned" appeared below its health bar.
【-10000】
【-10000】
【-10000】
【……】
Drop 10,000 blood every second!
"Poisoned! This poison is a bit harsh! Even the fifth-level lord can't bear it..."
Seeing that the mutated tree was about to be poisoned to death, Wang Tao decisively fired high temperature again ray.
He was not sure whether being poisoned by the fruit was considered a homicide, so he still had to grab his head.
【-5273】
【0/400000】
The mutated tree’s health bar is cleared.
“…”
Wang Tao felt a little sore. The first test failed... Wang Tao looked at another mutated tree farther away.
"Fortunately, there is another one. I hope it won't fail this time."
Wang Tao immediately attacked another mutated tree.
The fighting method was the same as before. When the big tree's health was low, Wang Tao threw the last [Growing Fruit] over.
This mutated tree also swallowed fruit, but this time, the word "poisoned" did not appear on its head.
But Wang Tao’s eyes widened.
"Holy shit! Disaster level?"
