Chapter 206 Gymnasium (Asking for Guaranteed Monthly Tickets at the Beginning of the Month)

Wang Tao was not too surprised to hear this somewhat sensational news. He looked at Lan Yulian.

"Are you involved as well?"

"No." Lan Yulian shook her head. "We only found out recently. This was a joint effort between the base and the prison. We and the Superpower Alliance were not aware of it... Otherwise, I would have stopped it!"

She was shocked when she learned about this. If it hadn't been too late, she would have tried to stop it.

After all, this matter was too dangerous. To some extent, it was a joke with the lives of all the survivors in Zijing City!

"So now..."

Wang Tao asked again.

"Those zombies are all in the city gymnasium. Before they raised the zombies, they cut off their limbs in advance and tied them up to prevent them from resisting and escaping."

"And now, those zombies have successfully been promoted to the third level. After the promotion, their strength is much weaker than that of normal third-level zombies. They thought they succeeded, but these zombies are slowly getting stronger, and they will evolve! Some grow new limbs, some evolve other limbs, and some even combine together..."

Speaking of this, Lan Yulian's face turned pale.

She saw the situation there with her own eyes, and she felt physically uncomfortable every time she thought about it.

"...The situation over there is a little out of control. This time, so many people were called over just to kill those zombies quickly. Otherwise, if those zombies rush out, it will be a big trouble!"

After thinking for a while, Wang Tao asked curiously:

"Can't they solve it themselves?"

According to Lan Yulian, these zombies they raised should be relatively weak, and they are subject to great restrictions, and they can't even leave the gymnasium. Then with the strength of the Bauhinia Base, it should be able to solve it. Apart from other things, there are many guns in the Bauhinia base. Since these zombies are trapped, wouldn't it be like shooting at targets if they shoot with guns?

"In theory, they can solve it, but it is too dangerous. Because there is a problem with their cages, many zombies are out of control. But those zombies can't get out of the gymnasium for the time being... So they can only send people in to kill them. If they force their way in, they will definitely lose a lot of people. Although they have a lot of people in the Bauhinia base, they can't afford too many losses... However, there is one most important point..."

Lan Yulian paused.

"The most important point is that the zombies inside are not only level 3 elite zombies, but also a kind of zombie with strong strength but no crystal core. It's a bit like a crazy zombie. They can't directly distinguish which zombie has a crystal core..."

"Good guy, no wonder!"

Hearing this, Wang Tao suddenly realized.

The reasons Lan Yulian mentioned before are indeed some difficult problems, but as long as you are determined, you can always solve them. The last reason is the key point-there is a kind of zombie with strong strength but no crystal core in the gymnasium!

Killing this kind of zombie is a thankless task.

So the Bauhinia Base simply tricked all the survivors of Bauhinia City to come and do the work.

Of course, if they can fulfill their promise and give benefits to other survivors, it is not a trick, but mutual help.

"So, will the Bauhinia Base fulfill its promise?"

Wang Tao looked at Lan Yulian.

"Of course. No matter how strong they are, they dare not go against the survivors of the entire Bauhinia City, and friendly cooperation is the basis for long-term survival. They are not stupid."

"That's good."

Wang Tao nodded, as long as they are not deliberately cheating people.

"Dinner is ready!"

Lu Yingfeng shouted in the kitchen. Today's dishes were made by her.

Lan Yulian hurried over to serve the dishes. Wang Tao did not move at all. He ate grapes with Jiang Shixue like a big boss.

When the food was served, Wang Tao's eyes lit up.

Let's not talk about how the food tastes today, at least it looks much better than yesterday.

Wang Tao did not hide his emotions, and the two women naturally noticed it.

Lu Yingfeng's face was calm, while Lan Yulian was a little helpless. She admitted that there was indeed a gap.

"Please!"

Wang Tao was not polite. He picked up a piece of lean meat. After chewing it for a few times, Wang Tao exclaimed with admiration:

"It tastes great!"

He was not complimenting. Today's dishes were indeed great, especially compared with yesterday's. It was simply a world of difference.

"Xiaofeng had practiced before!"

Hearing Wang Tao's praise, Lu Yingfeng was still talking, while Lan Yulian looked very pleased, as if she was being praised. It can be felt that the two have a good relationship.

"Xiaoxue, eat more!"

Then Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng began to pick up dishes for Jiang Shixue.

"Thank you."

The few of them chatted while eating.

The topic of zombies was naturally skipped for the time being, after all, that thing affects appetite.

When talking about food, Lan Yulian said with some envy:

"The Bauhinia Base is a great place! Not only is it large, well-defended, and has beautiful scenery, but you can also grow your own vegetables and raise your own pigs..."

Wang Tao was not surprised. He could guess from the food, otherwise the Bauhinia Base would not be able to supply fresh food to so many people.

"And their vegetables and pigs have mutated and grown very big! But they are all edible. Those pigs are also very honest and not aggressive."

Lu Yingfeng was also very envious.

Wang Tao seemed very interested when he heard this. He had only seen some inedible plant mutations and some fish mutations. He hadn't seen vegetables, pork, etc. yet. He was going to go back and see what they looked like. It was definitely not to steal vegetables.

After Wang Tao asked Lan Yulian about the location of the plantation at the Bauhinia Base, he changed the subject. He took the initiative to ask about the ranking of other forces by the Bauhinia Base.

Lan Yulian told Wang Tao that it was just as he imagined. This ranking was prepared for the quota of third-level superpowers.

However, although the higher the ranking, the easier it is to get a quota, the higher the ranking, the more you have to pay. If you want to get a good ranking, you must be prepared to pay.

Just like the four major forces this time, although they have all reserved some quotas, they also have a lot of people dispatched this time...

There is no absolute fairness in the world, but there is relative fairness. The Bauhinia Base tries to maintain a relatively fair state, which can avoid many problems.

The more Wang Tao learned, the more he felt that the leader of the Bauhinia base was powerful, and it was somewhat different from the rumors outside. But this is normal. Anyone who looks at something will more or less have a filter. It is definitely unreliable to listen to others, and it is more accurate to see it with your own eyes.

"By the way, I heard that there is a very special crystal core in the Bauhinia base. After the fusion is successful, it can be used by multiple superpowers together? Do you know what crystal core it is?"

"It is a superpower that can spray mucus. This mucus is not very viscous, but it can make zombies weak..."

Lan Yulian explained briefly.

Wang Tao suddenly realized.

If the zombies can be weakened on a large scale, then the probability of killing these zombies will indeed be much higher.

Wang Tao asked a lot of things again, and Lan Yulian said everything she could say.

At this time, Lan Yulian suddenly looked at Wang Tao and said:

"I have told you so much information, you come to our club!"

"No."

Wang Tao immediately refused.

Lan Yulian was a little angry.

Not only did she refuse, but she refused so perfunctorily. She just answered every question.

Lu Yingfeng next to her couldn't stand it anymore.

She said to Wang Tao:

"Wang Tao, you probably don't know how strong our leader is, right? How many people are willing to join our club but don't have the qualifications."

"How strong? Is there a ranking among you powerful psychics? Where does Ms. Lan rank?"

Wang Tao asked directly.

"..."

They did have a private ranking of combat power before, but Lan Yulian was not on the list.

However, this does not mean that Lan Yulian is not good, but her ability is not for direct combat.

"Our leader is not a combat psychic, but a psychic with healing ability! This kind of healing ability is only possessed by our leader in the entire Zijing City! Not to mention that our leader himself is also a doctor... If he joins our club, as long as it is not a fatal injury, we can save him!"

"Oh? Healing psychic?"

Healing psychics are indeed rare. At present, Wang Tao has not seen another one except Lan Yulian. Ding Yuqin's one does not count, hers is a hidden ability.

However, Wang Tao has seen a zombie with healing ability, and he also has a crystal core with healing ability...

"How about it, are you interested?"

Lu Yingfeng suddenly spoke with a little pride.

In fact, she is usually cold and won't be like this, but she doesn't know why she feels very relaxed when chatting with Wang Tao.

"I am indeed a little interested."

"Then...as long as you join us, you can enjoy the treatment of our leader!"

"No." Wang Tao still shook his head, but he continued, "Unless you tell me why you insist on letting me join. Don't fool me with the previous reasons, I know there must be a reason."

"..."

Looking at Wang Tao's stubborn look, the two women had a headache.

Wang Tao had to know the reason, but if Wang Tao didn't join, they didn't dare to tell the reason. Because the crystal core in their hands that can only allow men to fuse seems to be very powerful, they are still a little conflicted now. If someone attacks them from the outside because of this matter, it will be troublesome...

Seeing that neither of them was willing to say, Wang Tao shrugged.

At this time, he was a little curious. But he certainly won't take the initiative.

After dinner, Wang Tao accompanied Jiang Shixue to eat some fruit after dinner, and then prepared to leave.

At this time, Lan Yulian called him.

Wang Tao thought she had changed her mind, but it wasn't, she wanted to buy some crystal cores and potions from Wang Tao.

It seems that they should have tested it yesterday, and the effect was good.

"How much do you want? I just happen to have a batch of goods here. If you ask for it later, I may have already made a move."

Wang Tao has a lot of things in his hands, but he has to pretend that they are in short supply.

Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng didn't doubt it, because these things are really good, and the small quantity is also reasonable.

Wang Tao has set the price of these things.

1 Vitality Rejuvenation Potion is sold for 3 first-level crystal cores of any type and quality. The cost of making this potion is 1 first-level crystal core and a little water and food. And he can make 5 at a time! So this price is a big profit.

As for the price of crystal cores, due to the many types, the price will fluctuate to a certain extent.

But overall, it is cheaper than the market price. Moreover, these high-quality crystal cores are priceless and difficult to buy in the market. They are basically in the hands of big forces...

Moreover, this is a preferential price for Wang Tao, and the price sold to others is higher than this. After all, different people should be treated differently. Lan Yulian and the others are big customers, so they must feel comfortable.

Sure enough, when Wang Tao announced this price, both of them were a little surprised. Because it was much cheaper than they expected.

After once again confirming that the price was okay, Lan Yulian went to the room and took out a lot of white second-order crystal nuclei.

Then she called her subordinates and asked them to bring the first-order crystal core.

Only then did Wang Tao find out that the club occupied two villas, No. 6 and No. 7 respectively. Lan Yulian and others live in No. 7, and the others live in No. 6.

Wang Tao asked curiously why the club did not choose a courtyard.

When talking about this issue, both Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng looked unhappy.

"What other reason could there be? I just lost the competition."

Lan Yulian sighed.

"Ah? Didn't you let Lu Yingfeng come up? With her strength, can she lose in a fight?"

Wang Tao suddenly asked.

Lu Yingfeng obviously has pure fighting ability. Wang Tao can feel that she is very strong. There should not be many people who can defeat her.

As soon as he said these words, the two women looked at Wang Tao in surprise.

It was a surprise to Lan Yulian that Wang Tao actually knew Lu Yingfeng's strength. It was a surprise to Lu Yingfeng that Wang Tao praised her - this was a good compliment in her opinion.

Lan Yulian explained angrily:

"Of course it wasn't Xiaofeng, otherwise I would definitely not have lost. Anyway, it was calculated by the people from the Alliance of Superpowers."

In fact, it doesn't matter where they live. They are all survivors of the apocalypse and don't really care about the environment. But the problem is that the other two major forces live in the courtyard, so they are the only ones in the villa. This feels like they are being kicked out of the four major forces, which is a bit unpleasant.

"All right."

This was obviously a sad thing for them, and Wang Tao didn't ask much.

He took out a large handful of brightly colored crystal nuclei from his arms.

"Look at which one you want, pick whatever you want."

Both women's eyes lit up for such shiny things.

It took a while and the two sides reached a deal.

Wang Tao looked at the second-order crystal nuclei in his hands and grinned.

Sure enough, it's really too slow to kill zombies or something. It's easier to just deal with people directly.

Although most of these are white crystal nuclei, Wang Tao doesn't care, he can synthesize them anyway.

Before leaving, Wang Tao said to Lan Yulian:

"Today's grapes are a little sour, let's get more sweet ones tomorrow!"

"..."

This man is so rude!

Even Lan Yulian, looking at Wang Tao's arrogant look, had the urge to beat him up. But after seeing Jiang Shixue's big, pure eyes, she took a deep breath.

"Okay, I'll ask someone from the base to send it over."

"Thank you sister!"

At Wang Tao's signal, Jiang Shixue thanked her.

Listening to this sweet voice, Lan Yulian felt that everything was worth it again.

"No, we must bring Wang Tao into our club! Not to mention Wang Tao's own value, let's talk about Jiang Shixue, such a weak and pure girl, we must protect her!"

Lan Yulian clenched her fists and said.

"The leader is right!"

Lu Yingfeng also strongly agreed.

…

After Wang Tao returned to Building 8, Nie Siyan went out to discuss business and had not returned yet.

Wang Tao took out a drawing from the room.

[Drawings for making full-body armor from branches: You can make a set of full-body armor made from branches. Required materials: third-order crystal nucleus*1...】

This is the item dropped by killing the third-level tree root zombie before.

Wang Tao himself has entangled tree roots, so he doesn't need this set of equipment. He originally prepared it for Xu Xiaojun, but he never had the chance to get it.

Now that I have more third-order crystal cores in my hand, I can naturally make equipment.

After Wang Tao took out these materials, his thoughts came to him.

I saw these materials and design drawings instantly blooming with a burst of colorful light.

After the light ended, a full-body armor appeared in Wang Tao's eyes.

It includes full body armor such as helmet, breastplate, shoulder pads, and a huge shield. This shield can be carried on your back at ordinary times and used at critical moments.

[Branches Full Body Armor]

[Level 3 (Excellent)]

[Durability +50, Defense +50 (slightly less resistant to fire)]

The manufacturing process of this armor is a bit like rattan armor, it is all woven. But this armor is pure black, and the branches on it don't look like wood, but like steel. The ice was cold to the touch and heavy.

This set of armor is somewhat similar to Wang Tao's arm guards, knee pads, chest armor and the like, all of which can be adjusted in size.

Wang Tao put it on and tried it on himself.

"It's the right weight and flexible...it feels great."

This is definitely not as good as entangling tree roots, but it is much better than other equipment.

After Wang Tao played for a while, he called Xu Xiaojun over.

"I have prepared a suit of armor for you."

Xu Xiaojun's eyes lit up when he saw this suit of armor, especially when he saw there was a large shield. He immediately took it in his hand and tried it. The shield was big, but just right for him.

Xu Xiaojun knew about Wang Tao's entangled tree roots, so he did not refuse.

"Brother Wang, I feel this suits me very well!"

"I think so too. This will be your exclusive armor from now on. It will be perfect with your axe!"

Wang Tao said with a smile.

"Thank you, Brother Wang!"

Xu Xiaojun was very grateful.

To put it bluntly, with this set of armor, his survivability has increased at least tenfold! Not to mention the increase in combat power.

"Tomorrow, you can help the Firefly Club to fight a few battles and try to get a little ranking."

"Okay!"

Xu Xiaojun nodded immediately.

Rank affects whether or not you can fight against the third-level zombies. Wang Tao naturally needs a ranking.

The zombies in the gym may be a big trouble for some people. But for Wang Tao, these are all special energies and spoils of war!

After all, Wang Tao can tell which zombies have crystal cores and which do not!
