Chapter 733 The Purpose of Making up a Story
"Aren't you dazzled?"
This was the common thought of everyone after seeing Wang Tao take action.
Although they also know that if humans can successfully fuse certain crystal nuclei, they can become superpowers. But... isn't the strength shown by Wang Tao a little too outrageous? It’s not the same style of painting as them at all!
After Wang Tao showed his strength, he ignored the shocked people and quickly collected the loot dropped by the second-level zombies. This time I got a lot of second-order crystal nuclei, which is one step closer to the third-order.
"The survivors are down there. They should be safe. You go ahead. I'll look for any powerful zombies around."
Wang Tao said to the soldier who just got off the car.
"yes!"
The soldiers subconsciously responded, but thinking that Wang Tao was not their superior, they quickly used the intercom to contact Bai Hao on the plane. After getting permission, he quickly went to the underground parking lot to rescue people.
Wang Tao went around the hospital to see if there were any other second-level zombies.
Because the helicopter made too much noise just now, it attracted all the zombies in the hospital, so Wang Tao killed all the zombies in the hospital directly.
There are many zombies outside the hospital, but they are basically first-level ordinary zombies. Wang Tao has no interest in them. Occasionally he encounters one or two elite zombies, and Wang Tao kills them easily.
Considering that he was here to help Bai Hao and others save people, Wang Tao didn't go far. When they were almost done with their work, Wang Tao flew back to the hospital again and boarded the helicopter skillfully.
Bai Hao and others looked at him like a monster, Bai Hao's expression was a little complicated.
"Uh, aren't you going to fly back? I thought you were going to fly back by yourself..."
He also thought that Wang Tao must have real ability to come here from Shuize University, but he did not expect that Wang Tao's ability was so great. Especially when their helicopter was almost shot down by zombies, it was Wang Tao who saved their lives. Their so-called preparations may not be the same as clowns in Wang Tao's eyes...
"I'm tired, but it's more comfortable to fly."
Wang Tao smiled, still without any airs.
"OK!"
Bai Hao said no more and immediately called his men back to the city.
On the plane, Bai Hao looked at Wang Tao and hesitated to speak. Although he is the leader of a survivor base, in a way, he is the emperor here. But he suddenly couldn't let go in front of Wang Tao...
This is the effect brought about by the gap in strength!
If Wang Tao was just better than them, he would definitely not be like this. At most, he would be a little envious. But Wang Tao's strength is so terrifying - not only can he fly, but his eyes can also shoot lasers! Can instantly kill zombies at will! The zombies that could knock down the helicopter couldn't stop Wang Tao's attack for a few seconds!
Compared with them, Wang Tao seems to be a different species!
When the gap reaches a certain level, they will become awed and even afraid to speak.
"General Bai, is there anything you want to say?"
Wang Tao saw Bai Hao's hesitation, so he asked directly with a smile.
Bai Hao saw that Wang Tao was still the same as before and didn't deliberately stage it, so he no longer hesitated.
First, they solemnly thanked Wang Tao. If it weren't for Wang Tao, they might have been destroyed. And he is the leader of the Red Stone Base. If something happens to him, the entire base may be in danger. So at a small scale, Wang Tao saved his life, but at a big scale, Wang Tao saved all the survivors in the base.
After thanking him, he asked Wang Tao about his strength. He was really curious about this matter, and it didn't matter if Wang Tao didn't tell him, but he had to ask.
Fortunately, Wang Tao didn't hide anything and explained it directly to Bai Hao and the others.
"Zombies have levels, and superpowers naturally also have levels. If ordinary people successfully fuse the superpower crystal core, they can become first-level superpowers, and their strength is basically equivalent to that of first-level elite zombies. And I am a second-level superpower. Able man, the zombie who just threw stones at the plane is a second-level lord..."
After Wang Tao's explanation, they instantly became somewhat concrete about the strength of the superpowers. They haven't seen a person with superpowers yet, and Wang Tao is the first one, but they have seen a lot of zombies. By comparing them with zombies, they can probably judge how strong the superpowers are.
But the more this happened, the more admiration they looked at Wang Tao. Because Wang Tao is only a second-level superpower, and his strength is equivalent to that of a second-level elite zombie. Even because human brains are smarter than zombies, his actual combat power may be stronger than that of a second-level elite zombie, but he cannot be stronger than a second-level lord-level zombie. ?
And Wang Tao is not simply stronger than the second-level lord zombies, but completely crushed them! I'm afraid that the strength of a third-level superpower is no more than this, right?
If Wang Tao knew what they were thinking, he would definitely smile and say nothing. Can a third-level superpower be as strong as him? I want to eat shit.
"Judging from the combat power you have shown, superpowers are the future direction of human evolution! I feel that these firepower equipment will eventually be eliminated..."
Bai Hao felt a little melancholy.
Although he had anticipated this situation when the superpower crystal core appeared, he was not 100% sure after all. But now after seeing Wang Tao's combat effectiveness, he is basically certain that superpowers are the future of mankind!
"So you have to work hard, do more crystal core fusion, and strive to become a superpower!"
After Wang Tao encouraged them, he told them some information about the crystal core.
"Huh?" After listening to Wang Tao, Bai Hao suddenly said, "Could it be you who posted the popular science video about crystal cores online before?"
What Wang Tao said was similar to the video online, but more detailed. This made Bai Hao think more.
"Yes, it was me. My ability is limited, and I can only do these small things within my ability."
Wang Tao nodded in acknowledgment.
"...This is not a small matter, it is a big matter that can save countless compatriots!"
Bai Hao sighed, and then asked Wang Tao a lot of questions like a student.
In fact, they also saved a lot of crystal cores, but due to caution, he did not dare to let people merge. They naturally read the message sent by Wang Tao, but they wanted to get confirmation from various domestic scientific research institutions. After all, this might cause death, so it is always right to be cautious.
Now that they have seen the combat power of Wang Tao, a superpower, and know that Wang Tao is the one who knows crystal cores very well, they can take this opportunity to learn more.
Facing Bai Hao and his friends' questions, Wang Tao also answered them all. Even when the helicopter flew back to the Redstone Base, Bai Hao and his friends were still reluctant to leave.
"Thank you so much today! You were a guest, so you shouldn't have been busy. But you saved our lives, saved so many survivors, and explained so much important information to us..."
"We are all compatriots, you're welcome!" Wang Tao smiled and waved his hand, then seemed to remember something, and said, "Oh, by the way, I want to know some information about my friend Zhao Yuan..."
Before Wang Tao could speak, Bai Hao immediately said:
"No problem, someone will send you the detailed information later!"
In Bai Hao's view, this was a matter that could not be any smaller, so naturally there was no problem. He could even ask Zhao Yuan's father-in-law to come over, and Wang Tao could ask his father-in-law directly if he had any questions!
"Thank you very much."
"It should be!"
Bai Hao had saved so many survivors, and they were all doctors, so there were many things to do, so Wang Tao did not stay here for long and went back to his room directly.
At this time, two armed soldiers were standing guard outside Wang Tao's door, and one of them was holding a file bag.
Seeing Wang Tao coming back, the soldier immediately handed him the file bag respectfully, and then said that if Wang Tao needed anything, he could tell him. This was obviously what Bai Hao told him.
Wang Tao nodded, then went back to his room and opened the file bag, which contained all the information about Zhao Yuan.
He just took a look and was instantly angry and laughed.
"Okay, okay! I thought I might have misunderstood him, but I didn't expect it was indeed a 'misunderstanding'. I thought too well of him!"
"What's written on it?"
Jiang Shixue was a little curious. Because of the huge height difference between her and Wang Tao, even if she stood on tiptoe, she couldn't see the content of the document.
So Wang Tao sat on the sofa and put the document in front of the two of them.
This document records everything about Zhao Yuan from the end of the world to the present. As a core member of the base, this aspect must be recorded, and people with problems cannot join the military.
Of course, the authenticity of this information may not be 100% accurate, because no one saw what happened to Zhao Yuan during that period after the end of the world, and it was all narrated by him. Only the things that happened after he came into contact with this army were truly recorded.
And the content that made Wang Tao laugh was naturally the part narrated by Zhao Yuan.
Zhao Yuan said that after the end of the world, he and Ding Yuqin were trapped at home, and they could only rely on each other and prepare to tide over the difficulties together, but there was not enough food at home, so he had to risk his life to go out and search for food. As a result, Ding Yuqin not only did not help or encourage him, but also sneered at him, saying that the food he collected was not enough to eat. Because he loved her very much, he didn't care too much and endured it silently. Once, he went home early and found Ding Yuqin cheating on a man at home. He was furious and had a fight with the man, but he didn't win. Ding Yuqin also helped the man scold him, and finally he could only leave in disgrace. Two days later, Ding Yuqin suddenly contacted him, saying that there were zombies at home and called him to save his life. He struggled for a while, and when he was about to go over, he found that Ding Yuqin in the video was bitten to death by zombies...
These are all what Zhao Yuan said himself, which is completely nonsense.
And the reason why he said these things seems to be for Ji Lian. Because the information says that when Zhao Yuan was rescued by the army, he met Ji Lian in the army. Ji Lian sympathized with his experience and thought he was a good man. Then he helped Ji Lian a little and did not despise Ji Lian for being disabled, so the two were together. Because of Ji Lian's father, he soon made a name for himself in the army...
No!
Wang Tao suddenly frowned.
This time is a bit wrong.
According to the information, Zhao Yuan did not narrate his experience after being rescued by the army, but said so before being rescued. At that time, he had not seen the army, let alone Ji Lian. Could he have foreseen it? He started planning so long in advance? Wang Tao thought this was unlikely.
So Wang Tao continued to read it, and after a moment, Wang Tao seemed to have found the problem.
The information said that Zhao Yuan was with three policemen before he was rescued by the army. It was those three policemen who protected him and saved his life. The things Zhao Yuan fabricated were what he told those policemen, and then the policemen took him to meet up with the army.
So it is obvious that Zhao Yuan did not tell the military about these things at first, but to the three policemen. Being rescued by the army and meeting Ji Lian were all unexpected circumstances, which was a blessing in disguise for him!
And why did Zhao Yuan say this to the policemen? This document cannot be seen for the time being.
But there is no hurry. Wang Tao directly called the soldier outside the door and asked him to bring the information of the policemen. The three policemen were also in the Red Stone Base, so they naturally had the information.
Not long after, several documents were presented to Wang Tao.
Wang Tao took a closer look and finally understood why Zhao Yuan lied!
"I said why he made up such an outrageous story, so that's it..."
These documents said that when the three policemen took Zhao Yuan to escape, they approached Xingfu Community and even lived across the street!
Through the previous chat, they knew that Zhao Yuan lived in Xingfu Community, so they asked him if anyone in his family needed help. If so, Zhao Yuan could take them there and they would do their best to help.
Zhao Yuan said no, his wife Ding Yuqin was the only one at home, but the last time he video chatted with Ding Yuqin, she had died in front of him... Zhao Yuan told this outrageous and tragic story he made up. The three policemen were also very sympathetic to him, and then took him away quietly.
Wang Tao calculated the time, and it was exactly the last day of his coma. At that time, the community was full of zombies, many people were bitten to death, and the whole community and streets were in chaos...
"So that means that after the end of the world, Ding Yuqin was trapped at home. Although Zhao Yuan was outside, he was lucky enough to be rescued by three policemen and was not in danger of life for the time being. When passing by Xingfu Community, he had a chance to take three policemen to rescue Ding Yuqin. But the premise is that he had to take these three policemen with him. At that time, the community was in chaos, and there were zombies everywhere. He might have been afraid of death, so he didn't dare to go, and then made up such an outrageous lie..."
Wang Tao felt that his guess should be almost right.
The reason why Zhao Yuan made up this story was because he was afraid of death. He was finally rescued and didn't want to take risks again to save Ding Yuqin.
The encounters with the military and Ji Lian later might have been accidents. But he made perfect use of this accident and thus achieved his current status...
