Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot - Chapter 1642: 691: Encounter with Gale Convoy Again

Chapter 1642: Chapter 691: Encounter with Gale Convoy Again

Gu Yun held an internal meeting and informed the base’s top management about the “world operation rules”.

Everyone’s first reaction upon hearing it was disbelief, thinking it was just a rumor from somewhere, because it seemed too illogical. But when they learned it came directly from Wang Tao, they fell silent immediately.

However, Gu Yun said Wang Tao wasn’t entirely sure whether these world operation rules were accurate. He gathered them here assuming the rules might be correct, and wanted them to brainstorm to see if they could find some way to break the situation. If it turns out the operation rules are inaccurate, then at worst they only wasted some time…

Upon hearing this, everyone subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Wang Tao and his team had long come to terms with the idea of dying, that didn’t mean others could do the same. Most people were still afraid of death.

Under the threat of death, some might rise up to resist, some might collapse and give up, and some might choose to run away early…

To be on the safe side, Wang Tao instructed Gu Yun not to tell them the world operation rules had been confirmed as true by him, allowing them to retain some hope.

As long as there is hope, there won’t be too much chaos, and they can focus more on finding ways to change the situation…

But even with so many people brainstorming, they couldn’t come up with any good ideas quickly. So Wang Tao didn’t participate and let Gu Yun handle it, asking him to contact him if anything was discovered.

After a brief recovery at the base, Wang Tao left again. This time, he went alone, naturally aiming to strengthen his own power.

Even though the average strength of humans increases the strength of zombie monsters, it’s not a reason to give up on strengthening, as it will only lead to quicker death.

Before finding a way to change things, Wang Tao could only continue to improve his own strength to deal with the increasing number of Seventh Order zombies outside.

He had only recently ascended to the Seventh Level, and ascending to Level 8 in a short period was clearly impossible. But not all Seventh Levels are the same!

From yesterday’s discovery of merging the Seventh-Rank Crystal Core, each successful fusion raises the limit of Power of Laws by 1%, while also roughly increasing strength by 1%. Ascending to Level 8 requires 10,000 of Power of Laws, meaning he could enhance his strength by 100 times?

This means the gap between Seventh Levels might reach as much as 100 times!

Wang Tao’s current Basic Law Force is only 105, leaving a significant room for improvement. He can’t become complacent just because he reached the Seventh Level; he must keep pushing to become the strongest at his level!

Of course, saying this is one thing; actually executing it is hard, because there are too few fire attribute monsters.

Previously at the Sixth Rank, Wang Tao couldn’t encounter fire attribute zombies or monsters, so he eventually had to take the risk of summoning the Fire God.

Now Seventh Level fire attribute zombies and monsters are probably even fewer, so Wang Tao intends to seek fire attribute zombie monsters while searching for the Summoning Altar.

If he can get more Summoning Altars, he’ll continue to summon Seventh-Rank Fire Beasts, which will benefit Wang Tao greatly. If given the chance, he certainly wouldn’t miss it.

After leaving Changhe Base, Wang Tao routinely scouted around the base to see if any Seventh Order creatures appeared.

Whoosh—

Wang Tao’s flying speed was very fast, quickly circling the base’s outskirts. The number of zombies around the base was increasing; he just killed several Sixth-Rank Lord Zombies. But no Seventh Order zombies appeared, which is good news.

After clearing the zombies, Wang Tao flew eastward.

Qian Country is vast, with a large population. But most people are concentrated in the east, while the west is relatively barren and desolate.

After the zombie outbreak, places with higher populations were more dangerous, making the west naturally safer than the east. Wang Tao was previously located in the country’s middle, with Changhe Base in the west. Upon learning of Changhe Base, he headed directly there.

Since the apocalypse’s arrival, Wang Tao had grown familiar with the west; there were many places he could navigate with his eyes closed. But he wasn’t as familiar with the east.

The east was much more dangerous than the west, and it bordered the ocean, where the sea beasts were terrifying. Even during his previous search for fire attribute zombie monsters, Wang Tao only briefly went east, and departed without finding any.

Now Wang Tao intends to head east, searching carefully for fire attribute zombie monsters, Summoning Altars, and perhaps visiting the sea. Earlier he avoided such dangerous places due to the sea beasts, but now his strength has greatly increased, and being of fire attribute, he mutually restrains the sea beasts, making the coast a place worthy of exploration.

Moreover, the vast east didn’t yield any Survivor Bases during Wang Tao’s previous visit. Could it be that the entire Qian Country only has Changhe Base, Silver Serpent Base, and Red Maple Base as Survivor Bases? Wang Tao believed there should be more, and saw this as an opportunity for a thorough search.

…

“Another zombie tide…”

Looking at the dense zombies in the distance, Wang Tao felt numb.

Throughout his journey here, he lost count of the number of zombie tides encountered, with several led by Seventh-tier Zombie Lords. These zombies were evolving rapidly!
