Chapter 216 Misunderstanding

"Orange third-level promotion crystal core?!"

Seeing what was in Wang Tao's hand, Lan Yulian covered her mouth and exclaimed.

She also received several promotion crystal cores during this operation, but they were all white and ordinary quality, with only a 20% fusion success rate.

Theoretically, the white crystal core has to be fused five times before it can be successful, but in fact it all depends on luck. If you are not lucky, you will never succeed.

Fusion of crystal nuclei will add impurities to the body, so people of their level generally will not easily fuse crystal nuclei. Especially this white crystal core...

For them, purple crystal core is the mainstream. Red and orange are something that can be encountered but cannot be sought.

Unexpectedly, Wang Tao took out an orange one directly!

"How about it, do you want it?"

Wang Tao shook the orange crystal core in his hand.

"think!"

Lan Yulian spoke honestly.

Not only her, but Lu Yingfeng and Nie Siyan next to her also nodded subconsciously.

The orange promotion core means that it is 100% possible to be promoted to the third level!

"Exchange it for other crystal nuclei."

Wang Tao said with a smile.

This third-order orange promotion crystal core was synthesized by him using two blue and one white crystal cores. It has no impurities and is much better than ordinary orange crystal cores. As long as the exchange price is higher than the cost, Wang Tao can exchange it.

"Whatever crystal core you want, I'll change it!"

Lan Yulian immediately reached out to Lu Yingfeng.

Lu Yingfeng took out a bunch of crystal cores from her backpack, all of which were second- and third-level crystal cores, including many white promotion crystal cores.

Wang Tao's eyes lit up when he saw these crystal nuclei.

Although the quality of these crystal nuclei is average, it doesn't matter to Wang Tao.

"How many are you going to change?"

Wang Tao looked at her.

"Ah? How many? Do you still have them? Are they orange too?"

Lan Yulian was a little confused.

Wang Tao didn't say anything, and took out two more red and one orange third-level promotion crystal cores.

"..."

Except for Jiang Shixue, everyone else was dumbfounded.

"Are you interested?"

Wang Tao looked at Lan Yulian and said.

"I want them all!"

Lan Yulian spoke immediately.

These three promotion crystal cores basically represent three third-level superpowers!

"Can you afford it?"

Wang Tao said with a smile.

"affordable!"

Lan Yulian bit it, she had to buy it even if she couldn’t afford it!

She quickly pulled Lu Yingfeng to the side and discussed in a low voice.

Next to her, Nie Siyan looked at the three promotion crystal cores and felt her heartbeat speed up. Although this was not given to her by Wang Tao, as long as she served Wang Tao well, she might have a chance...

Thinking of this, she immediately came behind Wang Tao and helped Wang Tao rub his shoulders.

Wang Tao glanced at her and said nothing.

After a while, Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng came over. Lan Yulian said:

"I will give you all the crystal nuclei in my body in exchange for these three crystal nuclei!"

"not enough."

Wang Tao shook his head.

It’s not that it’s not enough, but because at this time, when the third-level promotion crystal core comes into play, Wang Tao will definitely have to sell it at a high price.

Seeing Wang Tao shaking his head, Lan Yulian was not surprised.

If it were her, she might not agree. After all, this represents a third-level superpower. If you can become a third-level superpower, you won't have to worry about having a crystal core!

"Then you make an offer, this is all I have right now..."

Lan Yulian was a little helpless. She was not rich to begin with, and she had traded a lot of crystal nuclei with Wang Tao before. The crystal cores in her hands were only obtained today... She really has nothing to bring out now.

Wang Tao did not offer a price, but looked at the crystal cores that Lan Yulian took out, and then handed her two orange promotion crystal cores.

"These can only be exchanged for two pieces. This is our friendly price."

"……OK!"

Lan Yulian quickly took over the two crystal nuclei.

"So beautiful!"

It was not like she had never seen orange crystal nuclei before, but she always felt that these two orange crystal nuclei were particularly beautiful.

With these orange crystal cores, they can have third-level superpowers! And with third-level superpowers, you can have the power to suppress other forces!

"Who are you going to use it for?"

Wang Tao asked curiously after putting away all the crystal nuclei.

"Give it to Xiaofeng, I haven't been able to advance to the third level yet..."

Lan Yulian glanced at Lu Yingfeng and said.

Promotion to the third level not only requires the blood volume to grow to the upper limit, but also requires at least one second-level ability +10. Lan Yulian does not have the ability to successfully fuse ten times, so there is no way to fuse the promotion crystal core. And Lu Yingfeng has a superpower that has been successfully fused ten times and can be promoted to the third level.

Lu Yingfeng said nothing, but her eyes were filled with gratitude. If it were someone else, after getting the third-level promotion crystal core, they would definitely use it for themselves, even if they couldn't use it temporarily, they would keep it. It is indeed rare for people like Lan Yulian to directly give up the crystal core...

However, Lu Yingfeng also had some worries.

"If I successfully advance to the third level, my other second-level abilities that have not reached the full level will not be able to be fused in the future..."

Second-level superpowers cannot fuse first-level crystal nuclei, and it is estimated that third-level superpowers cannot fuse second-level crystal nuclei either.

Lu Yingfeng only has one third-level superpower +10, and the other three superpowers are still +1. If she reaches the third level now, the three +1 superpowers will no longer be able to fuse with the second-level crystal core... In other words, these three abilities may never be promoted again!

Under normal circumstances, she would definitely wait for a suitable opportunity to advance to the third level - at least ensuring that her other second-level abilities are +10! But now the situation is special...

So in other words, if she is promoted to the third level now, her strength will definitely be greatly improved, but her upper limit will be lowered - because the other abilities will always be the second level. Not to mention, the fewer promotion cores you use, the less your strength will increase during promotion...

Hearing her words, Lan Yulian was a little annoyed and subconsciously held her hand.

"Oh, right! I didn't expect this factor! How about... another person? There are also some people in our club who are qualified to advance to the third level..."

"No, I'll do it!"

Lu Yingfeng held Lan Yulian's hand tightly and shook her head firmly.

It's not that she is reluctant to take this opportunity, but that she doesn't trust other people. She could guarantee that even if she was promoted to the third level, she would still obey Lu Yingfeng's orders. But that's not necessarily the case for others... The inside of their club is not very peaceful. If something unexpected happens, it may be all in vain.

After Wang Tao learned a little about Lu Yingfeng's situation, he suddenly turned his palm over, and another orange crystal core appeared. There was a phantom of a scalpel inside this crystal core.

"Maybe you need this."

"What's this?"

Seeing the orange crystal core again, the two women were a little surprised and curious.

"Strip the crystal core. After fusion, you can freely choose to peel off a second-level power of yourself. The stripped power will form a new crystal core without side effects..."

Wang Tao gave a brief introduction.

The two women's eyes suddenly widened.

"Strip ability?"

"And there is this magical crystal core?"

After the crystal core is fused into the body, can it still be peeled off?

Both women couldn't believe it, but this was what Wang Tao told them, and there was no need for Wang Tao to lie to them.

After the shock, both women looked excited.

If this crystal core can be used to peel off the other second-order crystal nuclei in Lu Yingfeng's body, then when Lu Yingfeng reaches the third level, there will be an empty space to integrate the third-level superpower!

Or after Lu Yingfeng strips away the superpower, fuses a relatively common second-level crystal core, and then upgrades this crystal core to +10, then even if she reaches the third level, she can continue to fuse the third-level promotion crystal core, thus This power has been upgraded to the third level - judging from the fact that both first- and second-level power users can fuse the second-level promotion crystal core, second-level and third-level power users should also be able to fuse the third-level crystal core!

Anyway, if Lu Yingfeng can use this crystal core, it will greatly improve her strength and potential! In particular, Lu Yingfeng also integrated two garbage abilities with no side effects but no functions in the early stage, so they can be replaced with more suitable abilities!

Lan Yulian asked excitedly and nervously:

"What's the price for peeling off the crystal core?"

This price... is really hard to decide.

For Wang Tao, this kind of stripped crystal core is more precious than the promoted crystal core because it is rare. But for others, it is definitely more precious to be promoted to the crystal core...

"You have nothing left to trade!"

Wang Tao raised his eyebrows and said.

"If you believe me, I can write an IOU! At the price of the newly promoted crystal core!"

Lan Yulian said seriously.

"Credit? OK, I believe you."

Wang Tao looked into her eyes and suddenly smiled and nodded.

"ah?"

Seeing Wang Tao say this, Lan Yulian was a little surprised.

"What? Are you lying to me?"

"No!" Lan Yulian waved her hands quickly, "Then it's settled!"

No matter why Wang Tao believed her, this was always a good thing for her to take advantage of.

At this time, Wang Tao took out another peeling crystal core.

"Don't Lu Yingfeng have two garbage powers? He can just strip them all out."

"You still have it? Okay, I want it!"

Lan Yulian continued to take credit.

"Do you have any junk powers yourself?"

Wang Tao suddenly said to Lan Yulian.

"have……"

"several?"

"There are also two..."

As soon as Lan Yulian finished speaking, she saw Wang Tao take out two more epic peeling crystal cores.

"Here, do you want it?"

"……want!"

As the saying goes, if you have too many debts, you don't have to worry. Lan Yulian has just made a lot of loans on credit, so it's not bad for these two.

"Do you want to be promoted to the third level? Yes! Then this promotion core..."

Wang Tao took out a few more promotion crystal cores.

"..."

Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng were both shocked, shocked and a little confused at the same time.

No, are we in the same world? Just take out a lot of high-quality third-level promotion crystal cores so casually? Are you willing to give me credit?

After being confused for a while, Lan Yulian suddenly seemed to have thought of something. Her expression was a little surprised and complicated. Then she gave Wang Tao a wink, which meant that she wanted to talk to Wang Tao alone.

Wang Tao got up and went to another room with her, where they were alone.

"You...just say what you want to do!"

After coming in, Lan Yulian looked at her and said.

There is no love without reason. Wang Tao was suddenly so kind to her, obviously he wanted something. After all, this is the end of the world, and in this environment, using credit is almost the same as wasting money!

Wang Tao must have some agenda when he agreed to give her credit!

What's the picture? They no longer have crystal cores in their hands, and Wang Tao doesn't seem to like the power of her club, so it can only be... her!

This is not her narcissism, it's just that she really has nothing valuable in her hands, and she also knows that she looks better than most people...

Before Wang Tao answered, Lan Yulian suddenly lowered her head, her face slightly red, and whispered:

"Well, I'm not hypocritical, I just think that no matter what it is, there is a process, even if the situation is special and short... So, please give us a process of mutual contact, okay? We can try to get to know each other first. I know you are very good, but I am not a casual person. After all, I have never been in a relationship... Of course, no matter what the final result is, I will pay you back. I can't take your things for nothing. This is my promise!"

Hearing Lan Yulian's words, Wang Tao was stunned for a while, and then he realized that Lan Yulian seemed to have misunderstood.

Misunderstood that he was pursuing her? And...she didn't dislike it?

But it's true. With Wang Tao's current strength, if he wants women, they may all line up to come, such as Nie Siyan who is very proactive. Lan Yulian is already very reserved.

Moreover, Wang Tao helped her a lot and saved her life. Wang Tao himself was not bad looking... It was impossible to say that she had no good feelings towards Wang Tao... But she didn't like him either.

Now, Wang Tao was so generous to her. In her opinion, this was a signal from Wang Tao. So she decided to make it clear. If Wang Tao really had this idea, they could try to get in touch with each other first...

Wang Tao suddenly laughed.

"Actually, I prefer Lu Yingfeng."

"..."

Lan Yulian was stunned for a moment, and her face was a little embarrassed. But she was also relieved and a little disappointed.

She gathered the broken hair around her ears to ease the embarrassment, and then apologized.

"Sorry, I misunderstood!"

After apologizing, she quickly said good things about Lu Yingfeng.

"It's easy to say if you like Xiaofeng! I can help you two get together! She has never been in a relationship, she is very simple..."

When she finished speaking, Wang Tao laughed.

"Okay, actually I was joking. I agreed to give you credit because I want more crystal cores. Although you don't have any now, as long as you can take down the generals and even the entire Bauhinia base, you will have a lot of crystal cores, and you can pay me back."

"Ah?"

Lan Yulian was even more embarrassed when she saw that Wang Tao didn't seem to be joking.

She suddenly felt that she was a little in love. Wang Tao obviously didn't mean that, but she misunderstood him...

But she quickly reacted and immediately promised with a serious face:

"Don't worry, I will pay back all the debts, and I will never delay deliberately!"

"I still believe in your character."

Wang Tao nodded.

"Then let's go out."

Lan Yulian wanted to go out quickly. She felt endless embarrassment when she was with Wang Tao.

Although it is the end of the world now, those who can survive are basically thick-skinned, but unfortunately, she is one of the few with thinner skin. Especially in matters between men and women, people like her who have never had relevant experience are even thinner and can't let go.

It seems that Nie Siyan, who is already a wife, is very open. She doesn't even consider whether she still has face in front of Wang Tao...

"Yeah."

Wang Tao followed her, but when he was about to leave, Wang Tao suddenly said:

"What happened just now was just a joke to you."

"...I know."

Lan Yulian didn't expect Wang Tao to repeat it again, and she felt uncomfortable all over.

But at this time, Wang Tao suddenly came close and whispered in her ear:

"What I mean is that I don't only like Lu Yingfeng, but...I like both of you!"

"..."

Lan Yulian turned around, looking a little surprised and a little at a loss.

It is very common for strong men in the end times to find a few women and women to find a few men.

But if this happened to her, it would be a little difficult to accept. After all, she is not a weak person, and she doesn't have to rely on others to survive.

So if someone else said this, she would definitely hate it. But if this person is Wang Tao...she suddenly felt a little confused.

Seeing Lan Yulian looking a little overwhelmed, Wang Tao smiled and patted her shoulder, then walked out first.

He definitely had a good impression of Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng, but it was just pure appreciation, without any mixed feelings between men and women.

But since Lan Yulian was not disgusted after the misunderstanding, Wang Tao didn't need to pretend to be reserved. Everyone has a love for beauty, and there is no reason not to want a beauty delivered to the door. Especially she felt that the two women were both good in strength and character. Especially Lan Yulian, this is a rare nanny...

After Wang Tao and Lan Yulian came out, several people outside were a little curious about what they talked about.

Lan Yulian's face was normal at this time, and nothing could be seen. It must be said that women are born actors.

Wang Tao said to Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng:

"What crystal cores do you need? Just tell me, you can buy them on credit."

Lu Yingfeng looked at Lan Yulian, and Lan Yulian nodded.

So the two women got a lot of red and orange crystal cores from Wang Tao.

Lan Yulian felt a little pain. No matter what their relationship with Wang Tao was in the end, she said she would pay off the debt, so she must do what she said. And she owed so much money on credit. Even if she could defeat the general and his group, the biggest benefit would be taken away by Wang Tao...

"By the way, I have another good thing. Do you want it?"

Wang Tao took out another red crystal core.

"This crystal core is called Healing Light..."

[Second-level Crystal Core·Healing Light]

[Quality: Excellent (80%)]

[Purity: 45% (Side effect: The first fusion reduces 5000 HP, and the second and subsequent fusions reduce 1000 HP)]

[Healing Light: Consume energy to form a healing energy field. Within its range, HP will be restored every second]

After listening to Wang Tao's introduction of this crystal core, Lan Yulian's eyes lit up. She felt that this crystal core was too suitable for her!

"I want it!"

Her ability was single-target healing, but this ability was group healing, which just made up for one of her shortcomings.

Moreover, her combat ability is not very high and she doesn’t really like fighting. She just likes healing, and this ability is tailor-made for her!
