Chapter 350: A Gluttonous Feast

"Woof~"

After Lightning woke up, he ran to Wang Tao.

And as it was running, its calf-like size was rapidly shrinking!

By the time he reached Wang Tao's feet, he had returned to his original body shape.

"Huh?"

Wang Tao was suddenly curious.

He squatted down and touched Lightning's head.

"Your size has actually shrunk! Oh, I understand, you can change freely, right?"

"Woof~"

[HP: 110000/110000]

[Blue amount: 50000/50000]

[Level: Level 4·Lord]

[Awakening: Gluttonous Feast]

[Gluttonous Feast: The mouth will not be infected with viruses, and it will grow larger by swallowing creatures of the same level, including corpses. The bigger the body, the stronger the strength. The body shape can be freely transformed within the transformable range]

When Wang Tao first encountered Lightning, he was an ordinary dog. Later, Wang Tao fused it with the fallen teeth of the third-level zombie dog, and Lightning became a dog with hidden attributes.

Later, Wang Tao found a way to advance Lightning. It was promoted from the first level to the second level and the third level. At the same time, it also became an elite dog.

And now, after eating the Awakening Fruit, it was successfully promoted to the fourth level and awakened. It also became a fourth-level lord dog and awakened at the same time!

With a blood volume of 110,000 and a blood volume of 50,000, this was not conspicuous among the fourth-level lords, but its awakening made Wang Tao's eyes shine.

"A gluttonous feast..."

Lightning's previous hidden attribute was [Iron Teeth].

[Iron Teeth: The teeth are sharp and the mouth will not be infected by the zombie virus]

This hidden attribute is also very good. Let’s not talk about increasing strength. At least it can ensure that when it bites zombies, it will not be infected with the zombie virus.

This is a very important thing. After all, lightning's weapon is just teeth. If it cannot bite zombies, its strength will be weakened by more than 95%!

And now, the hidden attribute [Iron Teeth] has evolved into [Glutious Feast]!

First of all, it retains the effect that Lightning said it will not be infected with the virus. Needless to say, this ability is a good skill for survival in the apocalypse.

Secondly, it can swallow monsters or corpses! After swallowing a monster, its size will become larger, and as its size becomes larger, its strength will become stronger!

This is simply a [giant]!

The awakening of the giant is linked to one's own strength and size.

However, Awakening of the Giants talks about "unlimited growth in size", but does not specify how it will grow.

But Lightning's [Devouring Feast] is different. This makes it very clear that it must devour creatures or corpses of the same level.

Lightning is now a fourth-level lord, so its peers are also fourth-level lords. I just don't know if humans count. After all, normal humans don't have the level of "lord".

Of course, whether it can devour humans or not has little impact. Even if it can, Wang Tao cannot specifically hunt humans. There are so many zombies and monsters outside, enough for lightning to devour them.

As long as the lightning swallows enough, will it be as strong as [Giant]?

Wang Tao thinks it should be possible!

Lightning’s [Swallowing Feast] awakening is definitely an awakening with unlimited potential!

But there is no way to test this swallowing now. After all, there are no fourth-order lords here for it to swallow. But the ability to freely change body shape can be tried.

"Lightning, make it bigger and let me see!"

Wang Tao rubbed Lightning's dog's head and said.

"Woof~"

Upon hearing Wang Tao's words, Lightning barked and immediately began to grow in size. If it was the size of a calf before, now it is almost as big as a cow!

Looking at Lightning, who is tall and muscular, Wang Tao feels very powerful and domineering!

There is a clear difference between lightning and those black snakes. The black snake cannot conceal its own aura at all. As long as you see it, you can feel the fourth-level terrifying aura on it!

But Lightning was different. When Lightning first became small, he was no different from an ordinary big dog. He looked very ordinary.

Wang Tao originally thought that Lightning had returned to his original nature. But now after seeing the terrifying fourth-level lord aura on Lightning's body after he grew larger, he realized that it wasn't that Lightning had returned to his original form, but that this fourth-level aura was in another form!

Wang Tao asked Lightning to try it a few more times, and then discovered that Lightning's body shape could be freely changed. The smallest one is the normal size, and the largest one is just that big. As its size continues to grow, its strength will continue to grow!

"very nice!"

Wang Tao felt that the awakening of lightning was very suitable. If it were really the same as the awakening of giants, where the size could grow without limit but could not become smaller, it would not be very convenient. After all, Lightning doesn't live in the wild, he lives with Wang Tao. The current state of free change is very suitable for living in the city, and can be raised in a small dog house.

However, what made Wang Tao a little speechless was that Lightning was wearing a third-level [Wolf Dog Armor] before. This armor has a certain degree of malleability, but it can only support up to Lightning's previous size. When Lightning's size reaches its maximum size, the suit of armor becomes unwearable and falls off automatically.

So, the strongest state of lightning will "explode"?

This armor adds 50 defense and 10% speed. Although this attribute is not very strong for Wang Tao today, it is the only piece of equipment in his hand that can penetrate lightning...

"I can only make do with it for now. I'll see if I can get you some equipment later..."

Wang Tao put the armor back on Lightning, whose body had returned to normal.

"I'm going to let you devour some more zombies. When you can kill a giant zombie with one bite, I can follow you and play soy sauce..."

"Woof~"

Lightning understood what Wang Tao said and immediately licked Wang Tao again.

After playing with Lightning for a while, Wang Tao looked at his attributes.

The second awakening requires two secret keys. He has now fused two advanced awakening secret keys, so if he awakens again now, there is a 70% chance!

This probability is not too high, because Wang Tao's previous fusion of the red crystal core with an 80% success rate also failed. But this probability is not low, at least more than 50% is much better.

Wang Tao was thinking, is it better to start awakening now, or to increase this success rate.

If he fails this time, he will not only lose these two advanced awakening keys, but he will need 4 awakening keys the next time he awakens. And it has to be an advanced awakening key. After all, if he uses an ordinary awakening key, the probability is 30%. This probability is too low for Wang Tao.

Wang Tao thinks he is lucky, but he still doesn't dare to gamble. If he loses this bet, the success rate of awakening will get lower and lower, and finally drop to 10%, which is too miserable...

Wang Tao looked at his advanced special energy again, which is already more than 40.

"Or, save some more advanced special energy?"

His advanced special energy can no longer fuse superpowers, but it can increase awakening energy and improve the success rate of awakening. 1 advanced special energy can increase 100 awakening energy, which is equivalent to 1 awakening crystal core or 1 awakening energy bead; and 10 advanced special energy can increase the success rate by 1%!

He also had a lot of advanced special energy before, but most of them were used by him to increase the upper limit of awakening energy. Otherwise, it is estimated that there are 100 now.

The current 70% awakening success probability is less than two-thirds. If it is increased to two-thirds with advanced special energy, or directly increased to 80%... it will definitely be safer.

Wang Tao was a little entangled, and then simply told the problem to others and asked them what they thought.

"I have an ability that can increase my own awakening success rate, but I need to kill some fourth-level lords..."

After listening to Wang Tao's words, everyone's thoughts were surprisingly consistent-they all hoped that Wang Tao could save up before awakening.

The reason is also very simple, because with their current strength, killing ordinary fourth-level lord zombie monsters is basically no problem.

For Wang Tao and others, it just takes some time.

Spending more time to increase the success rate is obviously worth it!

For example, Lan Yulian and Jiang Shixue awakened because they couldn't improve their awakening success rate. Gambling early or late is gambling, so it is definitely better to be early.

But Wang Tao has a choice. They are not facing any crisis now. It is a matter of life and death. There is no need to be so anxious. It is better to be safe. If we can be stable for a while now, there will be fewer problems in the future!

After hearing their reasons, Wang Tao felt that it made sense.

At least it feels safer to get a two-thirds probability.

"But if we continue to wait, we have to find a way to find out the location of the fourth-level lord... Although I asked Cheng Yiyi to help pay attention, they will definitely fight first when they meet. If they are difficult to deal with, they will call me, and I don’t know when it will be..."

Wang Tao spoke with some entanglement.

Hearing this, Ding Yuqin suddenly asked:

"Wang Tao, didn’t you get a large number of meteorites? There can be fourth-level lord monsters in them..."

"Huh?" Wang Tao was stunned for a moment, then slapped his thigh and said, "Sister-in-law is right! Why didn’t I think of it!"

He agreed to Cheng Yiyi using meteorites to pay off the debt, not for reselling or hoarding, but simply for himself.

And the sooner you open it, the better. After all, the things that come out of these fourth-level meteorites are all fourth-level, and now is the time to make money.

Cheng Yiyi gave him 30 fourth-level meteorites. These meteorites can at least open some fourth-level lords, right? He feels that the probability of opening a monster is still quite high.

Killing these monsters and collecting 50 high-level special energies is no problem, which can at least increase his second awakening success rate by 5%!

Wang Tao originally planned to have a good rest in the city after returning this time, but he didn't expect Cheng Yiyi to use meteorites to pay off his debts and bring him so many meteorites. If he doesn't open all these meteorites, it will be a waste. It just happens to improve the awakening success rate, killing two birds with one stone - no, it can also let lightning devour some corpses, killing three birds with one stone!

So Wang Tao immediately said:

"Okay! That's it, let's go out to open meteorites tomorrow or the day after tomorrow!"

"Okay!"

Everyone is also very much looking forward to this kind of blind box opening behavior. Whether or not he made money was secondary - Wang Tao would not lose money anyway, and the main reason was the feeling of surprise.

Since he had decided to go out and dig up the meteorite tomorrow, Wang Tao made a careful plan.

There was a special market for superpowers in the base, where you could buy many items related to superpowers, including intelligence.

Wang Tao was going to buy some information to see where there were lord zombies or monsters. This information might not be accurate, after all, zombies and monsters would leave and be killed, but it was better to have information than not.

Anyway, Wang Tao was going to find a place to open meteorites and try his luck. If he could meet a fourth-level lord, it would be better. If not, forget it. Anyway, this kind of information was not expensive and he would not lose much.

…

The next day.

Wang Tao went to the bank first and exchanged all his crystal coins for fourth-level epic crystal cores.

Wang Tao had a total of 1.3 million crystal coins, and a fourth-level epic crystal core cost 5,000 yuan, which could be exchanged for 260 crystal cores.

He now had 30 meteorites, 6 of which were epic meteorites that required 10 crystal cores to open, and the remaining 24 were excellent meteorites that required 8 crystal cores to open.

Wang Tao used epic crystal cores to open these meteorites, so in other words, Wang Tao needed 252 fourth-level epic crystal cores. These crystal coins are enough to exchange for the crystal cores that Wang Tao needs.

After exchanging the crystal cores, Wang Tao went to the superpower market again. There are many superpower markets, and Wang Tao went to the nearest one.

It was the first time for Wang Tao to come to such a place. From a distance, it looked no different from a vegetable market, except that you need to apply for an identity certificate to prove that you are a superpower.

Qu Shilin told Wang Tao before that this superpower trading market is a bit like a black market. But the superpower market is a formal market, and you need to prove your identity to trade here.

There are two types of sellers here, one is a free seller and the other is an official seller.

The official is the city hall. Although their things are expensive, they are basically guaranteed.

Although the things sold by individual sellers are somewhat uneven, since this is an open transaction, the other party's information can be checked. So if you really sell fakes and cheat people, unless you promise not to leave the city for the rest of your life, you will definitely be retaliated, and the city hall generally turns a blind eye to such retaliatory behavior.

So overall, the things in the superpower market may not be good, but they are not too bad. But at the same time, the possibility of finding a bargain here is not great, because the things sold here are basically clear in value. If it is really some strange things whose value is unknown, then people will definitely sell them on the black market, after all, the black market can hide their identities and not be afraid of being beaten...

Wang Tao came with Nie Siyan, and Nie Siyan was just a follower who carried bags.

After the two registered their identity information and entered the market, they saw a stall selling the Night Demon Heart at a glance.

"Huh? This thing is so expensive?"
