Anyway, the armor was in Wang Tao’s Space Backpack and could be taken out at any time when needed.
“However, there’s no use for me to have so many sets of armor, I can trade with others…”
Wang Tao muttered to himself again.
As of now, this stuff seemed to be worth more than Crystal Cores and such. But as everyone’s levels increase to Level 3 and above, it might not be as valuable. So Wang Tao thought he could sell some of them, since he had permanently learned the method of making them and could make more in the future…
He finished checking out the loot from the Iron Tree Monster, but there was one more loot to check out, the Iron Tree Vines.
Previously, when killing the Iron Tree Monster, the HP bars of these vines also started to decrease rapidly. Just as they were about to be emptied, Wang Tao dealt with them before they died.
There were a total of eight Iron Tree Vines, and they had dropped eight Loot Packs for Wang Tao.
And the items within these eight Loot Packs were very similar, each containing a Level 2 Extraction Crystal Core, and all of them were Epic! It seemed that all the Extraction Crystal Cores dropped this way were of Epic quality?
[Level 2 Crystal Core – Extraction]
[Quality: Epic (100%)]
[Purity: 45% (Side effects: None)]
[Extraction: After fusion, it allows you to freely select and extract a Level 3 Ability. The extracted Ability will form a new Crystal Core without side effects.]
With these eight cores, Wang Tao now had a total of 13 Extraction Crystal Cores.
Wang Tao couldn’t use these himself, but they could be useful for others, making them another great item for trade.
“Let’s see if there’s anything else here.”
“Okay.”
Wang Tao perceived that there were no other creatures in the underground parking lot, but for safety reasons, the two cautiously searched the area anyway.
“Nothing at all…”
After scouring the place, they shook their heads at each other.
This underground parking lot was likely the domain of only the Iron Tree Monster; aside from it, there were no other creatures.
Wang Tao recalled the information previously given by Zijin Base, grateful that they had sealed off this place. If they had come down to clear it and encountered the Iron Tree Monster, they probably would have been wiped out completely. After all, the combination of the Iron Tree Monster and its vines was too powerful.
Wang Tao looked at the still-evolving Entangling Roots and tried to contact Lan Yulian using the walkie-talkie. He discovered no one was reachable, including Xu Xiaojun and Nie Siyan.
“No signal, huh…”
Wang Tao climbed out of the entrance they had used earlier.
“Zzzt… Zzzt…”
“This is Wang Tao, this is Wang Tao…”
After a moment, Wang Tao received a reply.
“Wang Tao! Where are you? The place you recommended is great, come join us! These Level 3 Zombies are quite weak, still relatively easy to kill! And there are many obstacles here; we set up a defensive line and can kill them slowly. I’ve already got several Level 3 Ascension Crystal Cores!”
Lan Yulian’s excited voice came through the walkie-talkie.
On hearing this, Wang Tao broke into a smile,
“I’ll join you in half an hour, as long as you’re safe.”
He had to wait for the Entangling Roots to finish evolving first.
“Alright! We’ll wait for you! By the way, the main force from Zijin Base has also arrived. They should be ready to assault the gymnasium in half an hour at most.”
“Oh? Alright, I got it.”
Previously, Zijin Base’s people were delayed picking up an airdrop, which is why they’re only making their way here now.
After chatting with Lan Yulian a bit more, Wang Tao ended the call. However, he didn’t head back down but asked Jiang Shixue to stay here and wait for the Entangling Roots to finish evolving while he went to check out other places.
The gymnasium was huge, filled with zombies everywhere, with quite a few of the weaker Level 3 ones around. Wang Tao decided to take this time to gather some Special Energy.
In half an hour, Wang Tao killed more than ten Level 3 Ordinary Zombies and accumulated another 30,000 Special Energy. He finally burst forth a few Level 3 Ascension Crystal Cores.
Having cleared out the zombies nearby, and feeling it was about time, Wang Tao prepared to return.
Boom~
Suddenly, he heard some noise from outside, which seemed to be coming from Districts A and B.
“Have they arrived?”
Wang Tao pondered as he returned to the underground parking lot.
He checked the Entangling Roots and saw they needed ten more minutes.
At this point, the corpse of the Iron Tree Monster had withered as if drained by the Entangling Roots. Wang Tao waited another ten minutes.
Finally, the countdown for the evolution of the Entangling Roots ended.
Whoosh—
The Entangling Roots immediately detached from the Iron Tree Monster’s body and flew toward Wang Tao.
Wang Tao extended his hand, and the roots coiled steadily around his wrist like a delicately crafted iron bracelet.
Wang Tao looked at its attributes.
[Level 3 Weapon – Entangled Iron Tree Roots]
[HP: 20,000/20,000 (Upper limit: 100,000)]
[Status: Awakened]
[Enhancements: HP, Attack, Defense, Fire Resistance]
[Compatibility: 100%]
First off, the name had changed, becoming Entangled Iron Tree Roots with an added “Iron” in the name.
Then its HP had directly increased by ten thousand, which saved Wang Tao a lot of Crystal Cores.
But the most important were its enhancements; the weakness to fire was gone, instead gaining the Fire Resistance attribute!
This was significant for Wang Tao because what used to be a deadly weakness had now become an enhancement. This greatly improved his survival abilities!
“Let’s go and see what’s happening outside.”
Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue returned to the first floor from the entrance.
