Chapter 590 A few messages
After Wang Tao finished speaking, he felt the temperature around him drop sharply.
Bing Shen probably wanted to kill Wang Tao, but it was a pity that he couldn't make it.
"Hey, why aren't you talking?"
Seeing that Bing Shen stopped talking, Wang Tao took the initiative to speak.
Wang Tao has already obtained some information from Bing Shen, but this is far from enough. Wang Tao still wants to dig deeper.
“…”
“I knew you were a liar! Although I don’t know how you pulled off these tricks, there is no doubt that you are a liar! There must be a trap in this contract! He also said What can help me improve my strength? Do you think I will believe it?"
Wang Tao continued.
"You..."
"Okay, I'm leaving. Don't let me touch you in the future, or I'll beat the shit out of you!"
After Wang Tao taunted again, he raised his legs and was about to leave.
“Wait!”
The Ice God, who had been silent, finally spoke.
“Huh? Still not giving up?”
Wang Tao stopped.
"You have never seen real power, so it is normal for you to have doubts about me. In order to dispel your doubts, I can help you improve your strength for free. You do not need to believe in me or sign a contract. You Just provide me with a sacrifice. The better the quality of the sacrifice, the more strength I will improve for you. But even with the worst sacrifice, you can feel the improvement of your strength. . ”
Bing Shen’s tone was very indifferent, as if he was suppressing his temper.
When he heard what he said, Wang Tao raised his eyebrows.
So far, Wang Tao has obtained three useful pieces of information.
1. When there is no sacrifice, the creature in the altar is summoned. No matter how angry it is, as long as Wang Tao is determined, it will not be able to affect Wang Tao. So as long as Wang Tao doesn't sign a contract with him or activate the sacrifice, then it's not a threat.
Two, summon the creatures in the altar, even if they do not sign a contract with humans, as long as there are sacrifices, they can still improve humans to a certain extent. The increased strength is related to the quality of the sacrifice. However, judging from the situation of Ice God, this method of improving strength may have great limitations. The previous Vulcan should have provided strength to others through this method...
Third, the creatures in the summoning altar are very smart, almost like humans. But it's not that smart, it's an ordinary human intelligence level... Of course, this may also be related to the fact that this creature wants to be summoned quickly, and it can't be controlled so much...
A brief summary After a moment, Wang Tao looked at the zombies not far away and pretended to be a little moved.
"Those zombies, too?"
"Anything is fine, but you only have one chance to experience it. If you sacrifice such a zombie to me, you will only get a slight increase in strength. I don't think you will be satisfied. It is best to be a human, a powerful human. , enough to give you a lot of benefits."
Bing Shen said without changing his tone.
"Uh... Although I still think you are a liar, it's just a zombie, and there are a lot of them here. But there's only one chance to experience it... Well, I'll look for it first and see if I can find one. With a suitable sacrifice, it will be clear whether you are a liar or not!"
Wang Tao said in a pretense of confusion.
"Okay, I will wait for you. You will soon know how ignorant you are."
Perhaps because Wang Tao finally took the bait, Bing Shen's tone was slightly specific.
“Tch~”
Wang Tao rolled his eyes.
Seeing that the surrounding temperature dropped, the Ice God seemed no longer willing to communicate with Wang Tao. Wang Tao suddenly said:
"How about this? I will give you more sacrifices. You Help me improve a few more times..."
"Impossible!" Before Wang Tao could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ice God, "Do you know how much energy will be lost in the non-contracted state? If the number of times is too high, my strength will be reduced, and it will take a long time to recover—— "
At this point, the Ice God suddenly stopped, realizing that he seemed to have said too much.
Wang Tao narrowed his eyes.
He discovered another useful information -
The fourth piece of information is that the creatures in the summoning altar will consume a lot of energy in the process of improving human strength in a non-contracted state. , and even reduce its own strength! And it will take a long time to recover from the reduced strength!
In an instant, Wang Tao thought of the Vulcan.
If he remembered correctly, that Vulcan had improved the strength of many humans! And they are all in a non-contractual state! In other words, Vulcan's current strength is not at its peak. Maybe he has lost a lot of strength and it will take a long time to recover?
Dong, dong——
Wang Tao seemed to hear his own heartbeat.
If it is true as I guessed, then this God of Fire is definitely the weakest among the three "gods"!
Maybe... you can try to hunt down the so-called Vulcan!
Wang Tao was a little ready to act, but in the end reason prevailed, and Wang Tao was not impulsive.
Because he doesn't know how much Vulcan's strength has been reduced, nor how long it will take Vulcan to regain his full strength. If the current Vulcan is already at his peak, isn't he looking for death?
So it is best to get some words from the Ice God, try to deduce the status of the Fire God, and then make a decision before it is too late.
So, Wang Tao said as if I have seen through you:
"Tch, these are all your excuses! Forget it, let me find a suitable sacrifice first, and then see how much you weigh. If you are really capable, then I don't mind trusting you, if you are Fake... Huh! Although I can't find you yet, if I meet you in the future, I will definitely not let you go!"
"You won't be disappointed when you are ready. After the sacrifice, all you have to do is stand in the altar and call my name..."
After the Ice God finished saying this, his voice fell silent. The surrounding temperature gradually began to rise, as if its consciousness had left.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Wang Tao seemed to hear a hint of fatigue in its voice,
“Is it difficult for it to communicate with me like this?”
Wang Tao silently wrote down this knowledge point.
In addition, from this sentence, Wang Tao got another piece of information——
The fifth piece of information is that only by making the altar bigger and standing on the altar can the person inside the altar be called. biology. Therefore, there is no way to contact the Ice God outside the altar, or when the altar has not become larger. Then the Ice God shouldn't be able to see what's going on outside the altar...
This must be a good thing, otherwise the Ice God might become a voyeur, which would be disgusting. Of course, this actually has little impact on Wang Tao. Anyway, Wang Tao has a space backpack, so he can just put the summoning altar into the space backpack. If the Ice God can see Wang Tao in this situation, it will be awesome.
I picked up this summoning altar today and got a lot of useful information from the Ice God. The connection with the Ice God was temporarily severed, but there would be another chance in the future.
Wang Tao decided to contact this Ice God if nothing happened in the future, and he should be able to get more useful information. In fact, what Wang Tao is most curious about is where the Ice God is, what is going on there, and what kind of creature it is.
But if you ask these questions right away, the Ice God will definitely not answer, and he will probably become wary of himself. So don't rush, take your time.
The Ice God thought he had released the bait, and the fish took the bait immediately. Little did he know that Wang Tao had also put out bait... it would be up to him who could catch whom!
It would take a day to summon the altar to turn these zombies into sacrifices, so Wang Tao put the altar here and come back to get it tomorrow.
"Let's go to Zizhu Base. There are still some unresolved problems there. After all, we agreed."
Wang Tao came to the ground and blocked the hole with some discarded construction materials. Then he called for the golden eagle and flew towards the Zizhu base.
Not long after, Wang Tao arrived over Zizhu Base.
"Huh?"
I saw a lot of food bags piled at the entrance of Zizhu Base, but no one was carrying them. There was also a thick layer of snow on the food bags. The base door was closed and there was no one outside.
"Something happened?"
Wang Tao immediately let the golden eagle land.
Hu——
The golden eagle flaps its wings and blows away the snow on the ground. Some blood stains were revealed on the ground.
Something really happened!
However, Wang Tao saw that the blood stains were not much, and there were no corpses... Then either the corpses were eaten to pieces, or these people hid in the base.
Dong dong dong——
Wang Tao knocked directly on the door.
This underground air raid shelter is very large and deep. Wang Tao's mental detection cannot detect whether there is anyone inside. At most, he can see no one at the base gate.
After a while, Wang Tao sensed a group of people walking cautiously to the gate and quietly opening a small hole in the gate. After seeing it was Wang Tao, they opened the door excitedly.
"Master Priest! You are back!"
This group of people is Zhao Yaru and the others.
The moment they saw Wang Tao, they instantly felt like they had found their backbone. It even feels like the current difficulty will be easily solved by Wang Tao.
“What’s going on?”
Wang Tao asked with a frown.
Zhao Yaru and the others had been injured before. After some treatment, although they failed to recover, their overall condition improved a lot. But now, they looked even more miserable. Their bodies were all covered with bandaged wounds. Some of them looked like mummies. If their faces weren't still outside, Wang Tao wouldn't be able to recognize them.
Obviously, they had another difficult battle.
"Sir, please come in... We are useless, we were attacked by others! They took away a lot of food..."
Zhao Yaru quickly invited Wang Tao in, and then talked as he walked.
After her explanation, Wang Tao finally understood what happened. Then Wang Tao was speechless and didn't know whether to say they were lucky or bad.
Wang Tao found the underground granary before and sent 3,000 tons of grain to Zizhu Base. Since the awakening fruits were about to mature, Wang Tao placed all the food at the entrance of the base and went to collect the awakening fruits.
But not long after he left, a motorcade suddenly came.
There are not many people in this convoy, only more than thirty, but they are all superpowers, and there are ten awakened ones among them. And they don't seem to be afraid of the cold, and can move freely in such cold weather.
The group discovered that there was a survivor base here, and the people in this base were actually carrying food, so much food! They didn't even say a polite word, they just rushed over and grabbed it!
Zhao Yaru and the others naturally did not allow the hard-earned food to be taken away, and a fight broke out between the two sides.
Although there are many people in Zizhu Base, their high-end combat capabilities are basically seriously injured. In the ice and snow, even those who are not injured will have their combat effectiveness greatly affected.
But those uninvited guests did not lose their fighting power in such a cold environment! And they have several fourth-level awakeners in good condition!
In addition, Zhao Yaru and the others were a little bit reluctant to let go, for fear of destroying the food piled outside. But those uninvited guests are not so particular, they all look like robbers.
So as soon as the two sides came into contact, the Zizhu base was retreating steadily. The gap between the fourth-level awakened ones and the third-level superpowers is still too big.
At this time, it is no longer a matter of protecting food, but of protecting the base! If these people are allowed to rush into the base, they may not be wolves among sheep.
This group of people was obviously also very interested in Zizhu Base. They also said that they wanted Zhao Yaru to be a slave girl, etc. Then they used means to temporarily block the gate of the base and wanted to take the opportunity to rush in.
Just when Zhao Yaru and others decided to fight for their lives, a beast roar suddenly came from not far away. A mutant beast is coming!
And this mutated beast is the fifth-level lord that Zhao Yaru and the others saw before, knocking down the giant zombie!
The aura of the fifth-level lord instantly made everyone breathless.
This mutant beast was not polite to everyone. Seeing that there was so much food here, he pounced directly on it.
Zhao Yaru and the group of uninvited guests did not dare to continue fighting, and they instinctively began to join forces to fight against the enemy.
But after all, they were not of the same mind. After each of them used the method of pressing the bottom of the box to temporarily block the attack of the mutant beast, the group of people fled directly.
Those people's cars were specially modified for this icy and snowy environment, and they responded quickly. They had already loaded some of the stolen food into the car, so they took the opportunity to run away.
They probably thought that their convoy could escape quickly. The people in Zizhu Base can't escape, so the mutant beast will definitely attack the people in Zizhu Base.
What people didn’t expect was that the mutant beast roared angrily and ran away after the convoy.
As for whether the mutant beasts caught up with the convoy, Zhao Yaru and others did not know. When they saw the robbers and mutant beasts leaving, they quickly got their wounded back, removed the things blocking the door, and chose to huddle directly at the base. I can't get out from inside, and I don't dare to move the remaining food outside.
Then until now, Wang Tao came to Zizhu Base again.
During this period, the group of robbers did not appear again, and the mutant beast disappeared.
Said they were lucky, they encountered bandits and the base almost fell. Call it bad luck for them, because the mutated beast suddenly appeared and chased the robber away. Although they suffered losses, the base was saved at least...
"You should treat yourself first. As for the food, I will get it back."
Wang Tao said calmly.
