Then they all subconsciously looked at the dark green crystal core.
Although they couldn't see the data, they could clearly feel that this crystal core was larger than the ones they had seen before!
Although the types and colors of the previous crystal nuclei were different, their sizes were exactly the same without any difference.
Therefore, this obviously larger crystal nucleus... is a second-order crystal nucleus!
Everyone was attracted by this beautiful second-order crystal core.
Before they met Wang Tao, they only knew about the zombie crystal core. After meeting Wang Tao, they learned that its full name is "First-order Crystal Core".
Since there is one level, there are probably two levels, three levels, etc.
The second-level zombies are definitely stronger than the first-level zombies, the third-level zombies are stronger than the second-level zombies, and so on.
It's just that the zombies everyone encountered and killed were all first-level zombies. Slowly, everyone began to ignore the level of zombies.
Now that I suddenly saw this second-order crystal core, everyone suddenly recalled the popular science that Wang Tao had done before - zombies also have levels, and the first level is the lowest level!
Everyone has been feeling a sense of urgency recently, but now that the second-level zombie has appeared, everyone feels that the pressure has doubled!
Wang Tao looked at the second-order crystal nucleus. Compared with the first-order crystal nucleus, in addition to being larger in appearance, this second-order crystal nucleus had only one difference in its properties. That was purity.
The purity of the first-order crystal nucleus is 50%, and the remaining 50% is impurities.
These impurities are harmful to the human body. Absorbing a small amount is fine, but if there are too many impurities, people will be at risk of turning into zombies. The more impurities, the greater the risk of turning into zombies!
Wang Tao was still looking forward to whether the future second-order crystal nuclei, third-order crystal nuclei and other high-order crystal nuclei would have fewer and fewer impurities?
But now it seems that he was overthinking everything.
The purity of the second-order crystal nucleus is 5% lower than that of the first-order crystal nucleus, which means it has more impurities!
Then you have to be more cautious when fusing the second-order crystal core from now on!
And Wang Tao suddenly remembered an important question again.
The purity of the first-order crystal nucleus is 50%. Once the two crystal nuclei are synthesized, the purity is 100%.
But the purity of the second-order crystal nucleus is 45%. When two crystal nuclei are synthesized, it is 90%... Is it possible that he needs to use three crystal nuclei to synthesize it?
Unless Wang Tao doesn't mind the accumulation of some impurities in his body, he will have to use three crystal nuclei to synthesize it, but if the purity of the three crystal nuclei is added together, it is 135%!
He has tried it before, and the purity will not exceed 100%... In other words, if you want to synthesize a second-order crystal nucleus without impurities, you have to waste at least half of the crystal nucleus...
Wang Tao felt so heartbroken.
"What was Shao Yong's rank during his lifetime?"
At this time, Xiang Hongbin suddenly spoke up, which brought Wang Tao, who was silently bleeding, back to his senses.
When the other people heard this, they all looked at Wang Tao curiously.
Wang Tao thought for a while and said:
"He should have been a first-level superpower during his lifetime, and turned into a second-level zombie after his death... The specific reason is unclear. After all, we still know too little about zombies..."
Wang Tao feels that if you reach the upper limit of 5,000 blood volume, you will most likely be promoted to the second level.
After all, Shao Yong had more than 4,000 health before, and he must not have reached the second level at that time. Later, after he became a second-level zombie, the upper limit of his health increased to 5,000... This blood volume must be related to the level.
But when it came to 5,000 health, the figure of the orangutan zombie appeared in Wang Tao's mind.
"I suddenly thought of the orangutan zombie. When we saw it for the first time, it gave me the same feeling as Shao Yong! So, it should have been a second-level zombie at that time!"
The first time Wang Tao saw the gorilla zombie, the opponent had 5,000 health. At that time, Wang Tao felt that he was no match for it.
However, Wang Tao didn't know the specific gap between himself and the opponent at the time. Now Wang Tao knows - the gap between him and the orangutan zombie is not only the difference in blood volume, but also the gap in rank!
Then Wang Tao dispersed his thoughts and thought about the black shadow he encountered on the outer ring road when he went out to pick up airdrops for the first time, making him almost unable to walk!
That black shadow has a total of 10,000 HP, and it is also level two or above!
No wonder his legs felt a little weak at the beginning! At that time, he only had more than 200 health points, and he was not even a superpower...
That's why Wang Tao said that if Shao Yong's zombie didn't have only a trace of blood, even if everyone finally defeated it with their numerical advantage, they might have paid a heavy price.
"Orangutan zombie..."
Everyone was originally very happy about killing Shao Yong. But now that a second-level zombie appeared, that gorilla zombie was at least a second-level zombie, everyone was instantly unhappy.
It is estimated that no one except Shao Yong can stop the attack of this level just now. But this is only Shao Yong who is still in the first level!
When the second-level zombie Shao Yong appeared, they had no chance to take action and had to rely on Wang Tao.
They couldn't imagine how terrifying an uninjured zombie Shao Yong would be!
"Damn it, kill zombies! Improve your strength!"
Xiang Hongbin kicked the body on the ground hard.
"You should rest and rest. If you need to be busy, be busy. I'll take care of it here."
Ren Jie pointed at the zombie corpses and the closed area.
Now that Shao Yong has been killed, the newly built courtyard wall last night can be demolished. A suitable reason must be found to prevent the survivors from panicking.
"Let's take a break and go out to hunt zombies in the afternoon! Where are you, Wang Tao?"
Wei Zhenguo asked.
"I have to go back and rest first."
Wang Tao spoke.
"OK."
Everyone searched the closed area again and left after confirming that there were no zombies here.
Ren Jie made a broadcast in the base, saying that Shao Yong had been killed by several committee members, and everyone did not have to worry about Shao Yong's sneak attack.
As soon as this news was announced, the hunters breathed a sigh of relief.
They have been frightened outside for the past few days, but now they can finally feel relieved.
However, Ren Jie announced another news, saying that second-level zombies have appeared outside, asking everyone to pay attention to safety.
By the way, Ren Jie also learned about the meaning of first-order and second-order.
Ordinary people have no levels. Only those who become superpowers are considered first-level superpowers. Second-level superpowers are stronger than first-level superpowers!
The news of the second-level zombies made everyone instantly anxious.
Many of them don't actually know how strong zombies are. They only know that ordinary zombies are very strong, and elite zombies are much stronger than ordinary zombies.
But now they know that the elite zombies they saw are actually only first-level zombies. How strong are the second-level zombies?
Zombies will become stronger, so they must also become stronger! Otherwise, not only killing zombies, but also going out to search for supplies will be more risky!
Many hunters have secretly made up their minds to quickly improve their strength and strive to be selected by the committee to become superpowers!
Only by becoming a person with superpowers can you be qualified to survive in the end of the world!
…
After Wang Tao returned home, he finally felt a little sleepy. The energy he had forcibly lifted with the revitalizing potion was about to be exhausted.
"No, I'm too sleepy! Sister-in-law, I'll take a nap first..."
Before he could say much, Wang Tao fell on the sofa and fell asleep.
"good!"
Ding Yuqin knew that this was a process of improving her strength, and she felt happy for Wang Tao from the bottom of her heart.
Now that she had 1,000 blood, she was much stronger. She struggled to hold Wang Tao and put him on the bed. After all, it was not comfortable to sleep on the sofa.
I don't know how long it took, but Wang Tao finally woke up. He just felt a little thirsty, and then he saw a glass of water being handed over.
"Sister-in-law, how long have I been sleeping?"
Wang Tao glanced at Ding Yuqin, who was sitting on the bedside to accompany him.
"It's still the same three hours as before." Ding Yuqin looked at the clock on the wall, and then said, "I'm going to make dinner!"
"Yeah. Go ahead."
After Ding Yuqin left, Wang Tao stretched and then clenched his fists.
"Getting stronger again!"
Wang Tao was a little excited, but not overly excited.
Shao Yong's ending is the consequence of inflation, and he must always remember his lesson.
Then Wang Tao looked at the trophies obtained from killing Shao Yong today.
This time the situation is a little different from before. Because Wang Tao killed Shao Yong twice!
Once it was human Shao Yong, and once it was zombie Shao Yong!
This situation made Wang Tao himself very confused. If he hadn't been able to see the increase in blood volume and the package of loot, he might not have paid attention to it - yes, his blood volume increased twice, and he also received two
Second package!
If I remember correctly, as of yesterday, his upper limit of blood volume was 3740. After killing Shao Yong, it instantly increased to 3940!
In other words, killing Shao Yong increased his HP limit by 200, which was more HP than any zombie he had killed before!
Wang Tao guessed that the upper limit of blood volume increase should be related to the strength of the opponent. Shao Yong is so strong, and the upper limit of blood volume increase of 200 is too much, but it is also very reasonable.
But Wang Tao soon discovered that the 200 blood volume was really not much!
Because when he killed Shao Yong for the second time, or to be precise, he killed the zombie Shao Yong, the upper limit of the blood volume increased this time was even more terrifying - it was directly increased by 960!
Wang Tao didn't even react at the time, and then he watched his health bar suddenly rise a little, from 3940 to 4900!
He is only 100 short of the upper limit of blood volume, reaching 5,000!
There is a high probability that 5000 blood will be the dividing line between the first level and the second level. If he can have 5000 blood, then he may be a second level superpower!
He didn't know why Shao Yong's zombies added so much blood, but there were only two possibilities. One was that killing second-level zombies would have added more blood, and the other was that killing zombies at higher levels would have added more blood.
As for which one it is, we can only observe more in the future.
But no matter what, Wang Tao is still a little excited when he sees his blood volume of [4900/4900].
The 100 health difference would be enough for a whole morning if he was lucky! If he was not lucky, it would only take a day. He would basically win the 5,000 health for sure!
Then Wang Tao looked at the other trophies.
The first time he killed Shao Yong, the package exploded. He didn't have time to take a closer look at it before. He wanted to take a look. Suddenly, it was a bit beyond Wang Tao's expectations.
It turned out to be four crystal nuclei!
[First-order crystal core·Dali]
[First-order crystal nucleus·long tongue]
[Level 1 Crystal Core·Throwing Mastery]
[First-order crystal core, full of vitality]
These are light green crystal nuclei with no side effects and a fusion success rate of 50%.
This was the first time Wang Tao found a crystal core from the package he exploded. However, Wang Tao had never killed many people. He only killed two people with super powers, namely Cao Xin and Shao Yong.
The package that Cao Xin exploded was a slime grenade, but at that time Cao Xin only had more than 200 health, so he was a weakling. He was completely incomparable with Shao Yong, who now has more than 4,000 health. So there is no way to compare.
Wang Tao speculated that these four crystal cores should be the four superpowers that Shao Yong learned. This is consistent with his previous speculation - Shao Yong knows four superpowers, and each has ten crystal cores integrated into it, so his mana level
It's four thousand.
Looking at the names of these four crystal nuclei, Wang Tao probably understood why Wei Zhenguo and Gao Hua, two people who had met Shao Yong, said that Shao Yong was completely different from before.
Shao Yong gained the strength of a superpower and felt a little swollen. This must be the reason. But there is another important reason, and that is the side effects of these crystal nuclei!
The side effect of Dali is that his body size is directly proportional to his strength. This will not affect Shao Yong's character for the time being. But the remaining three crystal cores are different——
The side effect of the long tongue crystal core is "moodiness", the side effect of throwing proficiency is "irritability", the side effect of rejuvenation is "easy to indulge in lust"... These side effects can all affect a person's personality!
It would be okay if there was only one side effect, but Shao Yong fused all three types of crystal nuclei, and they all reached the upper limit!
In addition, Shao Yong may be a little bloated and his will is not very firm...and then he gradually becomes mentally ill.
Maybe he is not aware of it himself, and he even thinks that what he is doing is right... This kind of side effect that can subtly change a person's personality is a bit scary!
If you see someone fused with this type of crystal core in the future, you have to pay attention. Maybe he will be the next Shao Yong...
Wang Tao killed Shao Yong for the second time, that is, the spoils of killing the zombie Shao Yong were the second-order crystal core and the package.
He dug out the brain of zombie Shao Yong and found only one green second-order powerful crystal core. Wang Tao thought it would have four crystal cores in its head and was a little disappointed.
As for the contents of the package, it once again exceeded Wang Tao's expectations - it turned out to be a crystal core!
But this time there were only two, and these two crystal nuclei were completely different from the ones he had seen before!
[First-order crystal core·Almighty]
[Quality: Excellent (40%)]
[Impurities: 50% (no side effects)]
[Almighty: After fusion, you can randomly give +1 to one of the fused abilities, with an upper limit of +10]
The first one is an all-powerful crystal core!
This was the first time Wang Tao saw this kind of crystal nucleus.
Looking at the introduction on the crystal core, doesn't this mean that if he fuses this first-level all-powerful crystal core, and if successful, he will be able to gain +1 to the precise shooting or self-healing abilities directly given to him?
Then this is a bit awesome!
However, it is obviously more difficult to obtain this crystal core. Wang Tao has killed so many zombies, but he has never seen such an all-powerful crystal core.
Wang Tao thinks this may have something to do with Shao Yong's strength. The zombie Shao Yong is not only powerful, but he also has four kinds of superpowers - this is completely different from other zombies. After all, the zombies Wang Tao has seen so far,
They all only have one kind of superpower.
So Wang Tao has reason to guess that perhaps only zombies with multiple powers can explode this all-powerful crystal core?
If this is the case, then this condition is too harsh. After all, it seems that except for zombies transformed by superpowers, Wang Tao has never seen a zombie with more than two abilities...
Then came the second crystal core. This crystal core made Wang Tao even more delighted than the all-powerful crystal core just now.
[Second-order crystal core·Promotion]
[Quality: Excellent (80%)]
[Impurities: 45% (no side effects)]
[Promotion: After fusion, one of the fused abilities can be randomly promoted to the second level]
Wang Tao was still thinking before that after successfully fusing 10 crystal cores with his superpower, he would no longer be able to fuse them again, so how should he continue to improve?
Wang Tao knows that there is a second-order crystal core. If he has a second-order crystal core in his hand, can it be directly fused? Are there any conditions required? His power is first-order, can he directly fuse the second-order crystal core? These are all
is the problem.
But now, Wang Tao seems to know.
His first-level ability can continue to fuse with the second-level crystal core! But he must first upgrade his ability to the second level.
The way to upgrade to the second level is to fuse this second-level promotion core!
These promotion cores are more precious than the all-powerful cores!
The promotion core is the foundation. If you don't use the promotion core to upgrade your abilities to the second level, then it will be useless no matter how many almighty cores you have.
But Wang Tao suddenly thought of another question.
What this crystal core means is to randomly upgrade a fused ability to the second level, but he has 4 abilities. In other words, he needs 4 promotion cores - no, maybe more than four. If
If you want a higher success rate and don't want impurities, you may need 8 or even 12...
Wang Tao suddenly felt a little sick. This second-level promotion crystal core must only be exploded by second-level zombies. So how many second-level zombies must he kill to obtain so many crystal cores!
And this does not necessarily mean that every second-level zombie can explode. What if this is a process of luck...
Wang Tao's scalp felt numb.
This is a second-level zombie!
He killed the zombie Shao Yong by relying on the opponent's residual health. If it were a second-level zombie Shao Yong with full health, he didn't know if he could beat him...
Wang Tao suddenly thought of the first time he fought against a sledgehammer zombie. He might have to experience that thrilling feeling often in the future...
"Oh shit!"
Cursing secretly, Wang Tao shook his head.
But no matter what, his strength must be improved. Even though he knew the danger, he had to go up.
Otherwise, even though the zombies have upgraded and evolved, but he remains still, he will be eliminated sooner or later!
…
The next day, early morning.
After Wang Tao woke up, he was going to hunt zombies. He was only 100 blood short of 5,000. He wanted to see if 5,000 blood would make him a second-level superpower.
But as soon as he got up, Wang Tao felt a little weak.
"What's going on? Didn't you do anything last night?"
Wang Tao quickly looked at his attributes, and a weak icon appeared under the health bar.
[Remaining time of weakness: 17:32:47]
"Wori!"
Wang Tao suddenly remembered that the rejuvenating potion had a side effect—it would make you weak for a day after use!
Wang Tao went to bed early yesterday and forgot about this matter.
And this potion is a bit interesting. If you say you are weak for one day, you will be weak for one day. The timer actually starts at zero o'clock the next day...
