Chapter 210 The Third Hand
One minute ago.
When Wang Tao heard the sound of the plane, he immediately took out the military walkie-talkie and began to try to contact the pilot.
"Zizi... Zizi... Zizi..."
"I am Wang Tao, I am Wang Tao..."
After a while.
"Zizi... Wang Tao... It's you... Zizi..."
Wang Tao just tried it, but he didn't expect to get in touch. And most importantly, the one on the plane was Colonel Luo Guozhong!
Fate!
Since they are acquaintances, it's easy to say.
"Colonel Luo, it's fate! I'm in the gourd-shaped living square below you. We have nearly a hundred survivors here! So, ahem... some airdrops."
Wang Tao was thick-skinned. Although he had asked for airdrops many times, he still opened his mouth.
"Zizi... Wait a minute... Zizi..."
The signal of the walkie-talkie was not very good, and it was impossible to tell whether Luo Guozhong had any emotions. It should not be, otherwise he would definitely refuse.
Wang Tao was afraid that Lan Yulian would let the team go, so he immediately said to Lan Yulian on the car walkie-talkie:
"Wait a moment, I'll call an airdrop."
"?"
Lan Yulian was confused, but she subconsciously asked the team to stop moving forward.
Wang Tao continued to talk to Luo Guozhong on the military walkie-talkie.
"Colonel Luo! Thank you so much! I will go to the military base soon, and I will definitely treat you to a drink then!"
Wang Tao felt that he had to find a way to get some wine. Since he said he would treat him to a drink, Wang Tao would definitely not break his promise.
"Zizi...zizi...hehe...zizi...hope...goodbye...zizi..."
Luo Guozhong seemed to laugh in the walkie-talkie, but Wang Tao couldn't hear it clearly.
At this time, the plane just flew over his head.
"Zizi...airdrop...I'm leaving...zizi..."
One after another, airdrops appeared from behind the plane's buttocks and fell directly towards the convoy!
"Oh my God!"
Lan Yulian was dumbfounded!
Lu Yingfeng, who was in the same car with her, was also dumbfounded!
Was it really an airdrop?
Or was it a coincidence?
But how could such a coincidence happen to them?
"How did you do it?"
Lan Yulian asked hurriedly on the intercom.
Wang Tao continued to speak to the military intercom. After watching the plane fly away and no signal, Wang Tao picked up the car intercom.
He said lightly:
"I have someone above me."
"..."
Both women were a little confused, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
Not only the two women, but also Nie Siyan in the other car was confused. She, Lan Yulian and Wang Tao were on the same channel. Naturally, she also heard the conversation between Wang Tao and Lan Yulian.
"Wang, Wang brother! You... are awesome!"
Nie Siyan wanted to say something, but in the end only two words came together.
"Do you need to say this? Hurry up and pick up the airdrop!"
"Yes!"
Nie Siyan ordered people to pick up the airdrop.
Lu Yingfeng on the club side was relatively calm and had already given the order.
The current location of the convoy is a square of considerable size, and the pilots are very skilled, so the airdrops just happened to land on the square.
However, the noise of the transport plane was too loud, attracting a large number of zombies. Some crazy zombies appeared in the distance.
"Quick, quick, quick! Retreat after picking up the airdrops!"
Lu Yingfeng got off the car, and he divided the people into two groups, one group to pick up the airdrops, and the other group to kill the zombies that were attracted.
Nie Siyan, Xu Xiaojun and others also ran out, only Wang Tao, Jiang Shixue and Lan Yulian were still in the car.
Wang Tao roughly counted and found that there were about a dozen airdrops.
This number is not small. Many people have not even picked up an airdrop. Seeing so many airdrops, they are all very excited.
At this time, the car door was knocked, and Lan Yulian was standing outside.
Today, Lan Yulian was dressed similarly to Lu Yingfeng, and her whole body was almost covered tightly, with only a delicate little face exposed.
After Wang Tao opened the car door, Lan Yulian got in the car directly, and then stared at Wang Tao.
Wang Tao stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her.
"Are you stupid?"
Lan Yulian stretched out her hand to push Wang Tao's hand away, and didn't say anything, still looking at him like this.
"..."
Although Lan Yulian is a beautiful woman, it's also creepy to keep staring at her like this.
Wang Tao stretched out his hand, pressed Lan Yulian's head, and then forced her to shift her sight outside the car.
Lan Yulian turned her head again forcefully, and she said seriously:
"Wang Tao, I must let you join our club!"
"Come on."
Wang Tao encouraged her.
"..."
Lan Yulian left.
She wanted to ask Wang Tao how he did it, but she didn't ask in the end. After all, this was Wang Tao's personal secret, and she couldn't keep asking.
But she had decided to get Wang Tao into their club at all costs!
Whether it was Wang Tao's character praised by his good friend Yang Changhong, or some high-quality crystal cores and medicines that Wang Tao obtained through some channels, or Wang Tao's ability to call for airdrops... no matter which one was taken out separately, it was worth winning over, not to mention that all of these were in one person!
Wang Tao must be won over!
Such a talent cannot be given away to the Firefly Club for nothing! Moreover, she found through observation that Wang Tao did not seem to have any sense of belonging to the Firefly Club... This was an opportunity to poach him!
When Lan Yulian returned to her car, several plans suddenly appeared in her mind...
Wang Tao didn't care about Lan Yulian's words, he looked at Jiang Shixue.
"I didn't sense any powerful zombies, what about you?"
"I do not have either."
Jiang Shixue shook her head.
"That's good."
The noise caused by the plane was quite loud, attracting a large number of zombies. If a third-level zombie appeared and was not discovered in advance, it might cause some casualties.
Although Wang Tao didn't go out, he had been "observing" the surroundings through his "plant affinity" hidden ability.
There are many plants growing around the square, which can become Wang Tao's "eyes".
It took some time and these airdrops were picked up.
"withdraw!"
Lu Yingfeng immediately called on everyone to retreat.
A lot of crazy zombies have been attracted now. These crazy zombies are much stronger than ordinary zombies, but there is almost no benefit in killing them, so there is no need to delay.
Under the command of Lu Yingfeng, the convoy immediately began to retreat in an orderly manner.
"There are some second-level zombies. Siyan and Xiaojun go over and take care of them."
At this time, Wang Tao discovered some second-level elite zombies.
Xu Xiaojun and Nie Siyan's blood volume is still far away from the second level peak, so this opportunity must not be missed.
"yes!"
The two men immediately ran over with weapons in hand.
Except for some zombies with obvious characteristics, second-level zombies and first-level zombies are not easy to distinguish from appearance alone.
Generally, it is the second-level superpowers who can tell the difference. Because superpowers have a faint sense of energy, they can sense the approximate level of zombies or other superpowers at close range.
Of course, this method is not very accurate, and it may not work for some people who have hidden abilities, or people like Wang Tao who are restrained. And it has to be closer to be effective.
Therefore, regarding the zombies around, everyone at most vaguely sensed that there should be no third-level zombies. But it's not that quick to tell which are the second-level zombies and which are the first-level zombies.
Therefore, under Wang Tao's command, Xu Xiaojun and Nie Siyan would kill several second-level zombies from time to time.
The people in the club were a little envious. After all, for those with strong strength, ordinary second-level elite zombies were experience packs. They also wanted to kill him, but it was not easy to find him.
They both felt that Xu Xiaojun and Nie Siyan both had radars and could always find the location of the second-level elite zombies immediately.
While avoiding a large swarm of zombies, the convoy also encountered a second-level lord zombie.
This zombie is much stronger than the average second-level elite zombie.
However, with the joint efforts of Xu Xiaojun and Nie Siyan, they still succeeded in killing it.
After killing this zombie, Xu Xiaojun officially reached 29,999 blood!
"Xiaojun has basically reached the upper limit of the second level now. He has done a great job! If he wants to continue to improve his strength in the future, he can no longer rely on killing zombies. He has to start with crystal cores..."
Wang Tao first praised Xu Xiaojun, and then looked at Nie Siyan.
"Now you are the only weakling left."
Nie Siyan was a little embarrassed. She is the biggest drag among Wang Tao's group.
She only has 15,000 blood now, which is half the distance from 29,999.
"...Brother Wang, I will work hard!"
Nie Siyan quickly promised.
"If we encounter a second-level zombie next time, I'll leave it to you to do the last-ditch damage. I hope you won't disappoint me."
"yes!"
Wang Tao took out some more crystal nuclei and gave them to Xu Xiaojun.
He has a lot of second-order crystal nuclei in his hands recently. The several crystal nuclei Xu Xiaojun needs are not too rare, so he collected some. And they have all been synthesized and can be fused to Xu Xiaojun.
"Thank you, Brother Wang!"
Xu Xiaojun quickly thanked him.
After the convoy completely got rid of the zombies behind it, Xu Xiaojun had fused all the crystal cores given by Wang Tao, and his mana had reached 8,400. He was still 18 crystal cores short of the upper limit of 12,000 HP for the second level.
"Wang Tao, I'm going to rest for a while and then turn on the airdrop. What do you think?"
At this time, Lan Yulian's voice sounded from the intercom.
Logically speaking, there is no need to notify Wang Tao about this kind of thing, after all, she is the captain. But at this time, Lan Yulian had already attached great importance to Wang Tao, and had the idea of turning Wang Tao to her side, so she would definitely give Wang Tao a lot of respect.
"OK."
Wang Tao nodded.
So the team took a short break in a park.
Lan Yulian gathered together all the airdrops picked up by everyone. She was the captain, so she would naturally distribute these things.
Lan Yulian invited Wang Tao and others to come over, and then opened the airdrop in front of them.
"Compressed food...medicines...inhibitors! Very good...nucleus synthesizer...energy detector...huh? What is this?"
Lan Yulian had seen many things in the airdrop before, but there was one thing in the box that she had seen for the first time.
Wang Tao raised his eyebrows after seeing that thing.
"Mechanical arm?"
This is something somewhat similar to the mechanical right arm that Xu Xiaojun carried before. But this thing doesn't look like a left arm, nor does it look like a right arm... To be precise, although this is a mechanical arm, it seems impossible to wear it on the hand.
Wang Tao took out the thing and there was an instruction manual inside. After flipping through it for a while, he suddenly became enlightened.
"This is the third hand!"
No wonder this robotic arm feels a little strange. It turns out that it is a third robotic arm installed on the back or shoulder!
And this third hand can be installed in combination with the previous mechanical right arm.
"I want this thing."
Wang Tao spoke directly.
"no problem!"
Lan Yulian nodded immediately.
Wang Tao got these things, and Wang Tao should have priority in selecting them.
Wang Tao handed the instructions to Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng.
After the two saw it, they were suddenly surprised.
"There is such a thing, it's really enlightening... It's a pity that we can't use it..."
Using this robotic arm requires a lot of strength and size. Xu Xiaojun is just right, but not only are they relatively weak in strength, but they are also very petite in size and obviously cannot be used.
Wang Tao gave the metal arm to Xu Xiaojun.
Xu Xiaojun is now wearing the branch armor. The mechanical right arm is in the car and is not worn.
During the previous competition, Xu Xiaojun did not wear a mechanical right arm. Because once the thing is activated, it is neither light nor heavy, and Xu Xiaojun himself cannot sense it clearly. After all, it is just a mechanical arm, not his hand. It would be embarrassing if he beat someone to death directly in the ring.
So Wang Tao only let him wear the armor and not the robotic arm.
Now that he was going to kill the third-level zombies, Wang Tao naturally asked Xu Xiaojun to take the mechanical arm. However, due to the limited space in the car, Xu Xiaojun was wearing a battle armor and a robotic arm, which affected him too much when driving, so his things were kept in the car.
Xu Xiaojun took out the mechanical right arm and installed it in combination with the third arm.
The size of the robotic arm can be adjusted, even if Xu Xiaojun wears a suit of armor underneath.
Soon, a man who was more than two meters tall and wearing a black armor appeared, but his entire right arm was wrapped in machinery, and a third mechanical arm appeared behind him.
"Not bad, not bad, a bit ugly and handsome..."
Wang Tao commented.
Of course, appearance is not important, what is important is ability.
The operation mode of this third hand is very simple. There is a control switch on Xu Xiaojun's left hand. However, since the operation mode is simple and it is operated by hand, it is conceivable that the flexibility and functionality of this robotic arm are much worse than the flexibility of a human arm.
Especially when you are not familiar with the operation, it looks very stiff. It always feels like a negative boost.
But let’s not forget it, when Xu Xiaojun was equipped with this robotic arm, it turned out to be surprisingly suitable!
Because there is a huge shield on the back of Xu Xiaojun's armor, Xu Xiaojun usually does not use a shield. After all, he still has a dilapidated giant ax given to him by Wang Tao in his hand. This ax is very heavy, so his hands can exert maximum power. In the case of fighting zombies, attack is definitely better than defense. He only takes out his shield when needed. But this will definitely take some time.
But now, it seems that there is no need to worry about wasting time. Because he can let this mechanical arm pick up the shield behind his back!
This doesn't require much operation. You just need the mechanical arm to take out the shield and block it in front of you!
Xu Xiaojun tried it. With the robotic arm activated, he could instantly control the robotic arm to block the shield in front of him.
"That's great!"
Nie Siyan and Lu Yingfeng were very envious when they saw that Xu Xiaojun could handle both offense and defense.
Lu Yingfeng has always been a very strong person, but she feels like she can't beat Xu Xiaojun...
The remaining airdrops did not have what Wang Tao wanted.
So Wang Tao took away some food, medicine and inhibitors. Of course, there is also an updated zombie illustrated book.
He silently wrote down the additional zombies and monster illustrations.
The only pity is that there is no record of the fourth-level zombies. I just mentioned it a little bit, saying that the gap between fourth-order creatures and third-order creatures is huge. If they encounter one, they can only run away, and there is no way to resist...
"Are there all level 4 zombies..."
Lan Yulian looked a little heavy when she saw the news.
They were all still working hard to advance to the third level, and it was very difficult to kill the third-level zombies. As a result, now the fourth-level zombies had appeared... This made her feel a deep sense of powerlessness.
"let's go."
Lu Yingfeng touched Lan Yulian with her arm.
"Well, let's keep going. We'll probably be at the Municipal Sports Center in another hour!"
After checking the airdrop, the convoy continued towards the Municipal Sports Center.
In this airdrop, everyone more or less got a lot of things. After all, the number of airdrops was indeed large.
Everyone is smiling. We haven’t even reached the gym yet, but we have gained so much. This upgrade is really worth it!
after an hour.
The fourth team finally arrived at the Municipal Sports Center.
Lan Yulian thought she was the last to arrive, but after walking around, she discovered that she was the first to arrive.
"Where are they? Is something going to happen?"
Lan Yulian was a little worried, and she continued to try to contact other people using the walkie-talkie.
Maybe it was because we were close, but we finally made contact this time.
"I am Lan Yulian. You have arrived at the Municipal Sports Center. Where are you?"
"Zizi...wait a moment, let's pick up the airdrop again...zizi..."
"..."
Lan Yulian's face darkened.
When the airdrop appeared, she still thought that in order to arrive on time, she could give up the airdrop first.
Unexpectedly, all these people went to pick up the airdrops.
Zhujing City is a big city. It is impossible for the planes to only drop airdrops to Wang Tao. There are also many airdrops in other places. If you want to pick up all these airdrops, it will definitely waste a lot of time...
Lan Yulian brought Lu Yingfeng to Wang Tao.
"They all went to pick up airdrops. What should we say?"
When Wang Tao came to the sports center, he used his plant affinity ability. He could feel that there were many zombies in it!
And Jiang Shixue also told him that there seemed to be many third-level zombies in it!
So, Wang Tao grinned and said:
"Since we are here, we must go in to kill zombies!"
"Okay! Let's go and take a look first!"
Lan Yulian is also a decisive person. She immediately began to organize people to enter the sports center.
