Chapter 656 Madness


Chapter 656: Madness

Bang!

All the zombies in front of him were crushed by the tentacles. The tentacles were all retracted and turned into a tentacle-like bracelet, which was quietly worn on Wang Tao's wrist.

“It’s really good!”

Wang Tao gently stroked the [Tangle of Touch], feeling very satisfied.

With [Sandstorm Hand] and [Entangling Touch], two biological weapons with strong control capabilities, if you encounter destructive-level creatures in the future, you may be able to give them a try...

Use these two After putting away all the biological weapons, Wang Tao looked at the loot package exploded by the octopus and sea beast.

In addition to the conventional crystal nuclei, potions, secret keys, and energy beads, what attracted Wang Tao the most was naturally the equipment blueprints.

[Obtain: Crazy Ring Production Blueprint*1]

[Crazy Ring Production Blueprint: Can make a ring, required materials: Crazy Eye*1, Sixth-level Crystal Core *1】

[Crazy Ring: Unknown Attributes]

This time there is only one equipment drawing, but it is a ring equipment.

All the materials were available, and Wang Tao started making them immediately. A colorful light flashed, and a ring with an eye engraved on it appeared in Wang Tao's hand.

[Madness Ring]

[Level 6 (Epic)]

[Attack power +5%, mental attack power +5%, ability: madness (requires awakening energy to activate)]

[Madness: During the duration, the upper limit of blood volume continues to decrease, and all basic attributes are greatly reduced. Increase, the more blood lost, the stronger the effect of madness (can be terminated at any time)]

The properties of this ring made Wang Tao's eyes brighten.

Except for weapons, there are few equipment in other positions that increase attack power. This 5% attack power increase is very rare, and there is also a 5% mental attack power! For someone like Wang Tao who also has mental attacks, this ring is perfect for him.

But the most powerful thing about this ring is its own [Insanity] ability. [Madness] can greatly increase all of one's basic attributes, similar to the ability [Crazy] that comes with the awakening of the octopus and sea beast.

But the side effect of [madness] is that it makes the consciousness go crazy and involuntarily attack everything it sees. The side effect of [Crazy Transformation] is that the upper limit of blood volume continues to decrease... In comparison, Wang Tao feels that the side effects of [Crazy Transformation] are better, because this ability will not affect his consciousness, and can be terminated at any time, which is controllable. It's not comparable to crazy at all.

Furthermore, [Crazy] has a similar characteristic to [Crazy] - the more blood lost, the stronger the effect.

When the Sandstorm Giant Zombie fell into a state of madness, Wang Tao could feel that its combat effectiveness had improved a lot, and it was getting stronger the more it fought. I guess this madness is similar...

Wang Tao put on the madness ring and immediately used his madness ability.

Buzz——

Wang Tao felt that the world in front of him was slowly covered with a faint layer of red. Although this did not affect his vision, it was somewhat unaccustomed to it. However, the body is also getting stronger quickly, and the perception is very obvious.

Wang Tao glanced at his health bar. The upper limit of his blood volume was slowly decreasing, decreasing by 5,000 blood and the upper limit of his blood volume every second!

In other words, his 1 million blood volume can only last for 200 seconds, which is about a little more than three minutes.

Although Wang Tao can accept the side effect of lowering the upper limit of his blood volume compared to his consciousness falling into madness, this side effect is actually quite large.

After all, this is not simply reducing the blood volume, but also reducing the upper limit. This also means that Wang Tao cannot replenish his blood volume through his healing ability or blood-sucking ability. Increase your own risk significantly...

However, the side effects are serious, and the improvement effect is also obvious——

After losing 10% of the upper limit of blood volume, Wang Tao felt that his physical fitness had doubled; after losing 20% ​​of the upper limit of blood volume, , the physical fitness increased by 2 times; after losing 30% of the upper limit of blood volume, the physical fitness increased by 3 times!

So, the upper limit of 10% of the blood volume can be exchanged for doubled physical fitness! Theoretically speaking, as long as Wang Tao's blood volume is low enough, his physical fitness will be infinitely close to a 10-fold improvement!

Wang Tao has a system awakening to begin with, and the physical attacks he brings with his tyrannical physical fitness are also very tyrannical. If he could improve his physical fitness by 10 times, then combined with his other attack methods, he couldn't even imagine how high the damage would be!

Of course, if you want to achieve an increase of nearly 10 times, the risks you face are also extremely high.

After all, this lowers the upper limit of blood volume, and there is no way to replenish the blood volume. If the upper limit of blood volume is lowered too much, it may be wiped by other attacks and die.

So this nearly 10-fold improvement seems very good, but in fact Wang Tao does not dare to use it to such an extreme. At most, he can accept the upper limit of blood volume being reduced by half, which is a 5-fold increase in physical fitness. , 1 million dropped to the level of 500,000. No matter how low it is, there is no sense of security.

After feeling the violent energy in his body again, when the price dropped to 500,000, Wang Tao terminated [Crazy Transformation].

The layer of blood in front of his eyes slowly disappeared, and the power in Wang Tao's body gradually returned to normal. As for his own blood volume, the upper limit has been restored to 1 million, but the current blood volume is still 500,000.

Wang Tao looked at the [Crazy Transformation] ability again, and as expected, it fell into cooling down.

[Cooling time: 9 minutes and 59 seconds]

"10 minutes of cooling time... not bad!"

This cooling time is much lower than Wang Tao imagined. You can use this time to restore blood Quantity, you can use it for the second time soon.

Wang Tao found a group of zombies again, took out his iron spear and attacked them. With the blood-sucking ability of the Iron Demon Spear and the blood-returning effect of his own water-type attacks, his blood volume was quickly restored to full value.

“Let’s go back first…”

Wang Tao returned to the temporary tent, and everyone else was still asleep. Wang Tao briefly told them about their harvest this time, and then stated that he would go out to look for fire-attribute zombies next.

Wang Tao doesn't plan to take them with him this time. After all, there are a lot of sea monsters and zombies recently. If these high-end combat forces are taken out, it will be more troublesome if the base encounters any danger. .

Everyone naturally understands, and even if they are not with Wang Tao, there are so many sixth-level sea beasts and zombies outside, which are enough for them to hunt.

The next day.

The large army continues to hunt zombies.

Although they killed a lot of zombies yesterday, there were still a lot of them, and there were still a lot of people with less than full health.

Wang Tao did not leave for the time being, but continued with the large army. After all, these people are the future of Changhe Base, and safety work must be done properly.

Five days flew by.

After killing several zombie waves, the blood volume of these tens of thousands of people was finally about the same. In the eyes of these people, during these five days of narrowly surviving, they had squeezed out twelve points of their potential, and they were able to survive with difficulty.

In Wang Tao's eyes, these five days were all near misses. It's just that he takes relatively few shots, and sometimes he doesn't even take a shot at all.

This was of course Wang Tao's intention to train them. If he had been working as a nanny, it would not be good for these people to improve their strength.

The results of the large army did not disappoint Wang Tao. Both their blood volume and actual combat effectiveness have been greatly improved, and they are all ready for awakening.

Even when Wang Tao announced that he was about to return to the city, these people were still a little unfinished. This operation is dangerous and tiring, but the improvement in strength is real. No one doesn't like the feeling of increasing strength.

And they are not stupid. The base brings them out to hunt zombies on such a large scale, and there is a high probability that they will focus on cultivating them in the future. So the better you perform at this time, the more likely you are to get key cultivation from the base!

But unfortunately, although they were very excited, their bodies were undeniably tired, and the food they carried, especially the fresh water, had been almost exhausted.

In such hot weather, you will really die without water, so you have to go back.

Before leaving, Wang Tao collected the awakening fruits planted on the corpses of giant zombies and some octopus and sea beast corpses, and gave them to Qu Shilin.

“There are so many fruits, these are all awakening potions!”

Qu Shilin very preciously put the awakening fruits into the treasure box given to her by Wang Tao.

In addition to the Awakening Fruit, the treasure chest also contained most of the corpses of the octopus and sea beast. After Qu Shilin confirmed that this octopus sea beast was also edible, and eating its meat could also improve humans to a certain extent, so two-thirds were left and the remaining one-third was planted with awakening seeds.

However, unlike the big fish and sea beasts, the big fish and sea beasts improve physical fitness, while the octopus still improves mental strength!

Although the improvement is not much, it is difficult to improve mental power. For most people, their mental strength may only improve when they are promoted. Therefore, the value of this octopus and sea beast is much higher than that of those big fish and sea beasts.

Wang Tao and his party also cooked some octopus meat and tasted it before, and the others were able to increase their mental power. But the improvement of Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue is almost invisible. This is obviously because their mental power is too strong.

But no matter what, apart from the transparent fish, whether they are big fish or sea monsters or octopus sea monsters, they are all full of treasures. Now they have been listed on the hunting list of Changhe Base. If you encounter them in the future, try to kill them as much as possible.

Of course, if you want to hunt them down, you can only form a team with a level six awakener or above. Anyone below this level will die.

Wang Tao actually wanted to continue fishing for sea beasts to hunt, but he held back. In the past few days, he has not been to the cracks again, nor has he provoked any sea beasts.

After all, Wang Tao's primary law power is already 80%. If he encounters something like an octopus and sea beast again, it will not matter if he kills him or not - killing will increase the primary law strength. 100%, he also got the fire attribute primary law strength, and he has no chance of reaching the seventh level; if he doesn't kill, it would be a waste, after all, others can't explode the loot package.

So he simply stopped provoking him and led the large army to improve his strength.

There have been no giant zombies in the past few days, but five ordinary disaster-level zombies without the power of primary laws have appeared, an average of one per day.

Although these disaster-level zombies are not Wang Tao's opponent, the frequency of their appearance is really too high. Disaster-level zombies that were rarely seen before can now be encountered every day. This shows that the overall strength of zombies has been steadily increasing, which is not a good thing for humans.

However, this kind of thing is not something Wang Tao can stop. He can only become stronger as soon as possible to see if he can be promoted to the seventh level.

After successfully returning to the base with a large force, Gu Yun immediately asked Wang Tao to come to the city hall to discuss with him the distribution of awakening potions.

Wang Tao originally didn't care much about this kind of thing, but after all, these things were brought by Wang Tao. It would be outrageous not to invite Wang Tao over. And they also want to see if Wang Tao has encountered any good seedlings outside these days that are worth focusing on cultivating.

After some discussion, the list of the first batch of people to receive the awakening potion was quickly decided.

After confirming that there was no problem, Gu Yun announced it directly.

At this time, after the members of the large army came back, they all shared what they saw and heard with their relatives and friends. In just half a day, almost everyone in the base was discussing the situation outside.

Whether it was the sky-high temperature outside, or the countless zombies and terrifying sea beasts, these people who usually rarely left the base were shocked.

Although they also knew that the environment outside was getting worse and worse, they did not expect that it had become this bad. Not to mention ordinary people, even people with super powers and awakened people may not be able to live outside.

This can't help but make people a little anxious. Although there are currently no problems in the base, facing such a harsh environment, the base will definitely not be able to completely stay out of it. If an accident happens, I don’t know if the base can withstand it...

Amid everyone's concerns, the city hall announced a list.

After everyone saw the list, they suddenly became excited.

"What? Did I read that correctly? For these outstanding performers, the base actually gave away free awakening potions?"

"I was so embarrassed, I thought the city hall would release them next. Some qualifications for purchasing awakening potions , let us people have a chance to awaken. But I didn’t expect that the city hall would give away the awakening potion for free!”

“Ahaha, I can also get a bottle of awakening! Potion! ”

"Congratulations, when you wake up later, don't forget about me, brother - eh? Damn it! I'm on the list too! Why is this list so long? There must be thousands of people, right?"

"..."

Everyone was shocked by the generosity of the city hall.

Those awakening potions that were sold at sky-high prices on the black market were actually given away for free? Simply incredible!

And the announcement also said that this is only the first batch of lists, and there will be several more batches to follow!

Everyone immediately remembered the "national awakening" that someone had said before. Good guys, are you serious?

The people in the base went completely crazy.

Judging from the information disclosed by the city hall, the total number of people on these lists is estimated to be as many as 20,000!

How many people are there in the entire Changhe level? It’s less than one million people, but now it can directly create tens of thousands of awakened people? ! This is too scary!

Those who were a little worried about the future of the base suddenly no longer worried, and even felt a little inflated. After all, the speed at which everyone in the base improves seems to be no slower than that of the zombies outside!

...

The Changhe Base was in a boil, but Wang Tao didn't pay much attention. He was about to go out again.

At this moment, news suddenly came from the Red Maple Base, saying that their base was targeted by a powerful mutant plant, which made their situation even more difficult. So I would like to ask Changhe Base to dispatch some experts to deal with the mutated plant.

Wang Tao was very interested in this news, and he happened to be planning to go out, so he left Changhe Base with the Golden Eagle and Lightning and flew towards the direction of Hongfeng Base.
