Chapter 575 A large amount of mushroom materials
After dealing with this group of mutated red wolves, Wang Tao asked everyone to take a break while he checked the loot.
There are a total of 46 mutated red wolves, all with the strength of fifth-level lords, and all of them were killed by Wang Tao, so Wang Tao got a lot of loot and loot packages this time.
[Obtained: Level 5 Crystal Core·Promotion*12]
[Obtained: Level 5 Crystal Core·Almighty*10]
[Obtained: Fifth-order crystal core·Awakening*11]
[Obtained: Fifth-order crystal core·Powerful*13]
[Obtained: Bleeding Wolf Fang*184]
[Get: Awakening Key*24]
[Get: Awakening Energy Bead*32]
Although this group of mutated red wolves are all lords, they have not released any special items, such as items that can increase hidden attributes... Except for [Bleeding Wolf Fang], a fifth-level production material, all other items have been seen by Wang Tao of. But because of the large number, it looks pretty cool.
As for the loot packages, they are basically the same. Except for the crystal core gift package, power potion, awakening energy beads, and awakening key, they are just production blueprints.
There are three types of drawings, namely dagger, scimitar and spear. Each wolf revealed two drawings, so there are 92 in total!
[Bleeding Dagger Production Drawings*28]
[Bleeding Scimitar Production Drawings*34]
[Bleeding Spear Production Drawings*30]
As you can see from their names, these three weapons should all have their own bleeding effects.
Wang Tao took out the drawings of a dagger, a scimitar and a spear and made them.
After a moment, three pieces of equipment appeared in front of Wang Tao.
【Bleeding Dagger】
[Level 5 (Excellent)]
[Durability +120, attack power +100, attack speed +20%, attack with bleeding effect (bleeding effect requires awakening energy)]
[Bleeding Scimitar]
[Level 5 (Excellent)]
[Durability +120, attack power +120, attack with bleeding effect (bleeding effect requires awakening energy)]
[Bleeding Spear]
[Level 5 (Excellent)]
[Durability +120, attack power +130, attack with bleeding effect (bleeding effect requires awakening energy)]
The attributes of these three weapons are okay, and they are considered to be above average among fifth-level equipment.
But this is naturally of no use to Wang Tao. His weapon has long been replaced by a sixth-level weapon. As for Ding Yuqin and others, they all have their own weapons, which Wang Tao specially selected for them, so these weapons are not used. It can only be sold back, or placed in the Awakening School as a reward.
One thing to say, on the whole, the trophies of these mutated red wolves are just average, nothing special, not as good as some of the fifth-level lords that Wang Tao hunted before.
But Wang Tao’s main goal is not these trophies, but the fifth-order all-powerful crystal core!
Wang Tao needs more crystal nuclei for promotion than others because Wang Tao needs to keep his body free of any impurities.
He has tried it before. Even if there is only 1% impurity in the body, he will feel very uncomfortable. Although this will not cause any damage to the body, Wang Tao feels that it affects his combat effectiveness a little bit.
Unless necessary, Wang Tao feels it is better to keep his body free of any impurities.
If you want the crystal nucleus to be free of any impurities, you naturally need Wang Tao's synthesis ability. You have to make the purity of the crystal nucleus reach 100%... The crystal nuclei Wang Tao uses now are basically synthesized by himself.
The purity of fifth-order crystal nuclei is 30%. To achieve 100% purity, more than four similar crystal nuclei need to be synthesized.
Wang Tao has a total of four powers. These four powers are very rare. It is difficult to encounter crystal nuclei with such powers. If Wang Tao wants to upgrade his powers, he can only use the all-powerful crystal core of the same level. This can be regarded as a price - more powerful abilities are more difficult to improve.
Wang Tao wanted to advance to the sixth level, so he had to upgrade all four of his abilities to the sixth level. At least 144 level 5 all-powerful crystal cores and 16 level 6 promotion crystal cores were needed.
Under normal circumstances, the explosion rate of the Almighty Crystal Core is very low.
Even if Wang Tao does it himself, only if he kills a lord of the same level, the loot package will definitely contain an all-powerful crystal core of the same level. If you are lucky, the lord of the same level can explode, but the probability is not high.
In other words, under normal circumstances, Wang Tao needs to personally kill 144 fifth-level lords and 16 sixth-level lords in order to gather the crystal cores he needs to advance to the sixth level.
This is the reason why Wang Tao has not collected the fifth-level all-powerful crystal core until now - it is not that he is not strong enough, but that there are not so many fifth-level lords for him to kill.
Wang Tao has been saving crystal nuclei for so long, but it is still not enough.
This time, Wang Tao finally had enough crystal nuclei, and there were a lot more. After all, Wang Tao and the others did not expect that there would be so many mutated red wolves here.
When Ding Yuqin and the others encountered mutant red wolves before, they only saw a dozen and thought there were only so many wolves. Not to mention a dozen lords of the same level acting together, it is already a relatively rare thing for two lords of the same level to be together. How could they have imagined that there would be more than forty lords living together here at the same time!
Of course, Wang Tao doesn’t have too much. If he doesn’t need it, others can use it too.
Like Lan Yulian and others, the crystal nuclei Wang Tao gave them were all synthesized, keeping the impurities in their bodies at a very low level.
Wang Tao still has some potions in his hand that can remove impurities from the body, but they are not enough for others. Therefore, Wang Tao is saving it for the time being for emergencies. If we can get the removal potion again in the future, we can give it to other people and try to remove all the impurities from their bodies.
As for now, Wang Tao first fused the all-powerful crystal nuclei that had just been synthesized.
After a while, the fifth-level all-powerful crystal core and the sixth-level promotion were integrated, and Wang Tao opened his eyes.
Everyone looked at him expectantly.
"Wang Tao, you should be able to advance to the sixth level, right?"
Ding Yuqin immediately asked with concern.
Although Wang Tao had already said before coming that "everything is ready, all that is needed is the crystal core", after all, this was a major event to advance to the sixth level. Without Wang Tao's definite answer, she was still a little worried.
"You can do it at any time."
Wang Tao grinned.
His four abilities have now been upgraded to level six. It was still the same as before. After the last superpower was successfully integrated into the promotion crystal core, he immediately clearly felt that he could advance to the sixth level.
He has three days to prepare. During these three days, he can choose any day to be promoted. If he has not been promoted within three days, he will automatically be promoted to the sixth level after three days.
“Great!”
When they heard that Wang Tao was sure to be promoted to the sixth level, everyone clenched their fists excitedly.
Wang Tao is still at level five, already so strong. Is this still possible after being promoted to the sixth level? They will be killed indiscriminately when they go on missions with Wang Tao!
Wang Tao is not as excited as them, because Wang Tao knows very well that the current combat power ceiling is not level six, but should be level seven, or even higher!
If you want to advance to the seventh level, you need to meet some special conditions. The difficulty of advancing to the seventh level may be even more difficult than awakening!
It can be imagined how strong the fighting power of the seventh level is. Even if Wang Tao succeeds in advancing to the sixth level, he does not feel that he can kill seventh level creatures.
“Let’s go, let’s explore this layer first to see if there are any other creatures. In order to improve efficiency, we will explore separately and call immediately if there is any situation. I will go back to promote after the exploration is completed.”
Wang Tao said to everyone.
He got a lot of induction rings before and gave them to Lan Yulian and the others. Now everyone can communicate in their hearts at any time. Even in this environment where radio cannot penetrate very far, the induction ring is not affected at all and can even chat in groups.
“Okay!”
Everyone nodded immediately.
The third floor was larger than Wang Tao imagined. With his speed, it took him a while to explore the northern edge. However, apart from the previous group of red wolves, no other creatures were found, not even a plant.
“What do these red wolves eat for a living?”
Wang Tao was a little strange.
The previous mutant leopards stayed in the cracks for a long time. Apart from them, there were no other mutant beasts there. They all lived by eating mutant plants.
But there aren’t even mutant plants here, so what do these red wolves eat? Can you survive without eating or drinking? You can't chew stones...
And just when Wang Tao was a little strange, Han Rui suddenly shouted with the induction ring:
"I have a passage here! It seems to lead to the next Floor!"
Hearing this, Wang Tao immediately ran in the direction of Han Rui, and when he arrived, everyone else also arrived.
“What a strong dark elemental aura!”
Wang Tao saw a huge hole diagonally downward at a glance. It was so dark inside that nothing could be seen, and the rich dark elemental aura seemed to be gushing out.
However, this "richness" is compared to the dark elements in the third layer. If compared with the [Dark Moon Lily] that Wang Tao encountered last time, which can spray dark elements, it is completely insignificant. Comparable.
So when everyone faced these dark elements, they just felt a little uncomfortable, and there was no weakness such as "dark element poison".
“There is actually a fourth level...”
“Is there a sixth-order lord on this fourth level?”
Everyone was very curious and a little eager to try it.
Together, they have the strength to challenge the sixth-order lord, not to mention that there is still Wang Tao with terrifying combat power.
“Maybe there really is one.”
Wang Tao touched his chin. He hoped to have a sixth-level lord. After all, after he was promoted to the sixth level, he would still need many sixth-level crystal cores to advance. It's level seven.
“You follow me.”
Wang Tao took the lead into the passage. He waved his hand and pushed away all the black fog around him. Everyone quickly followed, and their night vision goggles instantly lit up a lot.
After a while, the group arrived at the fourth floor.
Wang Tao looked at the status of everyone and made sure that they did not have any negative status, then nodded silently.
If the concentration of dark elements is less than a certain level, the people inside will not be poisoned by the dark elements. At most, it will only affect their vision. For Wang Tao and his party, this is not a big problem.
However, what caught their eyes was a stone forest. These stone forests physically blocked their sight, causing their progress to be much slower.
After passing through this bare stone forest, there is another stone forest not far away, but this stone forest is not bare, but full of mushrooms!
"Huh? Power Mushroom! Defense Mushroom! Speed Mushroom..."
Seeing these mushrooms, Wang Tao was suddenly surprised and surprised, and he actually encountered the core material for making potions!
This kind of production material is difficult to encounter. From the end of the world to the present, Wang Tao has obtained many potion formulas, but he has not encountered this core material a few times.
And now...at a glance, there are mushrooms everywhere in the stone forest! Not only were these mushrooms he had seen, there were also some he had never seen before!
"Get rich!"
Wang Tao took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and did not act rashly.
According to his previous experience, this mushroom is not only liked by him, but also by many monsters.
There are so many mushrooms here, Wang Tao doesn’t believe there are no monsters here.
Those red wolves may feed on these mushrooms. After all, there are no plants and other animals on the third level. The mutant red wolves are mutant beasts and they must eat.
Assuming the mutant red wolves feed on these mushrooms, why don't they stay here? Perhaps, there is an enemy here that the mutant red wolf cannot deal with?
"Be careful, don't stay too far away from me..."
Wang Tao used his mental power to carefully explore some mushrooms. After confirming that there was no danger in the mushrooms or the surrounding area, Wang Tao picked them off. A power mushroom.
He waited for a moment, but nothing happened.
“Did I guess wrong?”
Wang Tao tested it a few more times, and after confirming that there were no traps or monsters, he started picking.
The area of this stone forest is not large, but wherever there is soil, there are mushrooms. It took the group several large bags to finish picking the mushrooms. Wang Tao immediately transferred these mushrooms to his space backpack.
Wang Tao and others may not be able to use up the potions made from these mushrooms, and they can sell them or use them as rewards.
The monster he speculated never appeared, which made Wang Tao a little puzzled. Are there no other monsters here?
But regardless of whether there are monsters or not, Wang Tao definitely can't wait here. The group of them continued to explore the fourth floor.
There are many stone forests on the fourth floor, one after another. Some stone forests are bare, while others are full of mushrooms.
Wang Tao was still the same as before. Except for those particularly small mushrooms that had not yet been named, he picked all the mature mushrooms without ceremony.
As for the monster he expected... he has never encountered it, or the monster does not exist. Wang Tao is overthinking it.
The reason why those red wolves have abnormal brains may be because they eat these mushrooms. After all, eating these mushrooms directly will cause you to fall into various hallucinations. Eating too much may affect your brain...
Wang Tao is a little disappointed. His four abilities have just been upgraded to the sixth level. He still wants to try to do damage. This is not giving him a chance.
After confirming that there were indeed no mutant plants or animals on the fourth floor, Wang Tao led everyone back to the ground.
“I’ll come here occasionally in the future, maybe there will be mushrooms growing...”
Wang Tao explained to everyone, and then called for the golden eagle.
Go home and advance to the sixth level!
He couldn't wait any longer.
