Chapter 446: Magical Consciousness

Bang!

Wang Tao slashed at the Zerg monster.

[-8341]

[-834]

[…]

“Hiss, is the defense so high?”

Seeing this damage number, Wang Tao was a little surprised.

His slash barely caused over 10,000 damage. The defense of this Zerg was not much worse than some fifth-level lords!

But Wang Tao was not panicked. After all, he had encountered too many zombie monsters that were good at defense, and he had experience.

Before the Zerg monster counterattacked, Wang Tao slashed again, and the damage was also barely over 10,000.

Most monsters will be stiff for a period of time when they come out of the meteorite.

Although Wang Tao slashed a few times during this time, the Zerg monster woke up and immediately turned its head to attack Wang Tao.

And its attack method is very simple - use its head to butt!

After dodging several times in a row, Wang Tao was speechless. He looked at the attributes of this Zerg monster, and it was obviously a spiritual awakening. Wang Tao had been guarding against its spiritual attack, and even did not let other people come over, after all, spiritual attacks are hard to defend.

As a result, this Zerg monster did not use the power of the spiritual system at all, but only used its body to attack.

Although it has high defense, it is not fast, and Wang Tao is very fast. Facing this kind of "stupid" enemy, Wang Tao is the best and most favorite.

Not long after, this Zerg monster had half of its blood left.

So, it suddenly roared to the sky, and a light red light circle came out from its head and quickly spread around!

The speed of this light circle is much faster than the speed of the shock wave, and everyone can't avoid it at all, but Wang Tao didn't plan to hide, because he didn't feel any attack power from this light circle, and this light circle should not hurt!

Sure enough, the light circle went straight through Wang Tao's body without causing him any harm or discomfort. Like other people, there was no problem with the light circle.

Wang Tao did not retreat but advanced, and took the opportunity to cut another knife.

【-6724】

【-672】

【……】

The power of this knife is about 20% lower than before.

Looking at the Zerg monster with some red on its body, Wang Tao immediately said:

"This should be its awakening..."

The awakening of this Zerg zombie is [Spiritual Encouragement], which can make the companions around it excited and increase their combat effectiveness. The so-called combat effectiveness should be attack, defense, speed and so on.

Seeing the faint red light on the body of this Zerg monster, it is obviously enjoying the effect of its own spiritual encouragement.

Unfortunately, there are no other Zergs, and this awakening is obviously a bit wasted.

Thinking in his heart, Wang Tao continued to fight.

After a while, the Zerg monster had only a little blood left.

Wang Tao also confirmed his guess-this [Spiritual Encouragement] is what he thought, improving its various attributes. Whether it is speed, defense, or strength, Wang Tao feels that it has improved a lot compared to before, about 20%.

This improvement is still quite large, but unfortunately it is useless. Wang Tao finally stabbed the Zerg in the head, ending its short life.

Until it died, Wang Tao did not see it use any mental attack ability.

Wang Tao was speechless. He thought the Zerg was hiding on purpose, waiting for an unexpected attack, but it turned out that it really couldn't!

After the Zerg died, it dropped a lot of things.

Qu Shilin was the first to run over. After all, this was a fresh Zerg corpse, and it was rare to encounter it.

"Is this monster strong?"

Qu Shilin asked curiously. She saw that Wang Tao had been fighting for a long time, but Wang Tao fought very easily, like walking a dog, so she was unsure and didn't know what the strength of this Zerg was.

"It just has a little higher defense, and its overall strength is not strong. Among all the Zergs I have seen, it should be the weakest at present. However, its awakening is the ability to increase the combat power of nearby companions... So I have reason to speculate that this should be an auxiliary Zerg..."

"An auxiliary Zerg that increases the combat power of all nearby companions? Then will there be any offensive type? Defensive type... Are these Zergs just like the army?"

Han Rui spoke subconsciously.

Hearing her words, Wang Tao shuddered subconsciously.

If this thing is densely packed like an army, it feels more terrifying than zombies!

Wang Tao subconsciously glanced at the dim sky. There are still so many zombies outside. If a large number of Zergs appear again, it will really be impossible to survive!

But fortunately, at present, except for the Crystal Energy Star Meteorite, no traces of Zerg have been seen in other places. As long as you are prepared before opening the meteorite, there should be no problem for the time being...

"What is this?"

Suddenly, Qu Shilin pointed to a transparent bead-like thing next to the Zerg corpse and spoke.

This thing just rolled out of the Zerg's mouth. It's a bit like the awakening energy bead, but the awakening energy bead is white, while this one is transparent.

"Huh?"

Wang Tao was surprised when he saw this thing, and then subconsciously looked at Qu Shilin.

"What's wrong?"

Qu Shilin was a little confused.

"Your luck... this is too good!"

Wang Tao was a little amazed.

This thing that exploded is nothing else, it is an item that can obtain hidden attributes!

[Obtain: Iron Wall Armor*1]

[Magical consciousness: After being released, it will grow into a brain beast. After swallowing, you will gain a hidden attribute]

This thing is a...consciousness?

But this is not the point. The point is that swallowing this thing can obtain a hidden attribute!

Wang Tao feels that the hidden attributes obtained by swallowing this [magical consciousness] should be related to the spirit!

He also said before that Qu Shilin was more suitable for the awakening of the spiritual system. If he encountered such a thing in the future, he would keep it for Qu Shilin... But only half a day later, he actually encountered it!

Wang Tao thought about it again, Qu Shilin also personally selected and opened this meteorite... So isn't she just lucky?

"This is 'magical consciousness', and it is also a good thing that can increase hidden attributes..."

Wang Tao gave a brief introduction.

"Ah? This, this is something that can obtain the hidden attributes of the spiritual system?"

Qu Shilin opened her mouth in disbelief.

This is so unreal!

She was wondering when she would see something similar, but she saw it today? And Wang Tao also said that this thing is 100% successful! It’s not comparable to those probabilistic items!

"Do you want it? If you want it, this is for you."

Wang Tao looked at Qu Shilin and said with a smile.

"I'll buy it!" Qu Shilin said subconsciously, but she quickly continued, "But don't you really use it? If I use such a good thing, wouldn't it be a bit wasteful..."

When things came to an end, Qu Shilin was a little entangled.

Because she felt that if this thing was given to combatants, it would be more cost-effective...

"Don't waste it. We won't need it for the time being anyway. If you don't want it, I'll sell it to someone else."

Wang Tao shrugged.

"No! I want it!"

After hearing Wang Tao's words, Qu Shilin no longer struggled. She believes she can play a valuable role!

"Okay, you can swallow it at night. It may take some time, probably a few hours."

Wang Tao handed the things to Qu Shilin, and then suddenly said:

"And let me make it clear to you first. Although this item will gain hidden attributes of the spiritual system, I cannot guarantee that spiritual power will appear in subsequent awakenings..."

"Ah? Then what are your chances..."

Qu Shilin suddenly became anxious again.

"A conservative estimate... about eighty percent."

Wang Tao believes that there is a high probability that people will have spiritual power after awakening. For example, Jiang Shixue, like Wang Tao, has awakened spiritual abilities, so she also has spiritual power. Although her mental power is different from Wang Tao's, and she does not have the possibility to develop it at will, nor does she have a God's perspective, but with the help of her mental power, she can also observe the things around her in detail!

Wang Tao is currently teaching Jiang Shixue how to use spiritual communication. Wang Tao thinks Jiang Shixue should learn this trick...

But after all, the samples are too small, so Wang Tao cannot guarantee 100%. Avoid the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

"..."

When Qu Shilin heard Wang Tao's words, she immediately rolled her eyes at him.

Let alone 80%, as long as it can exceed 50%, Qu Shilin thinks it will be fine.

So, Qu Shilin happily took over this [Magical Consciousness], then she raised her head and said:

"By the way, you haven't said the price yet!"

"Just watch and give it."

Wang Tao doesn't care. Both of them are friends, so he naturally doesn't care about the price.

However, Qu Shilin still thought about it very seriously, and then said:

"Let's do this. I'll look back and see what the current prices are for similar items in the base, and I'll buy them at the market price!"

"Can."

Wang Tao shrugged.

Qu Shilin is a rich young woman who is not short of money.

"But then again, what is this so-called 'brain beast'?"

Qu Shilin looked at this crystal clear magical consciousness and suddenly asked.

When Wang Tao just introduced it, he clearly introduced the properties of this thing. Qu Shilin also knew that swallowing it was one kind of effect, and releasing it was another kind of effect. As a scientific researcher, she is naturally very curious about this kind of thing.

Wang Tao frowned when he heard Qu Shilin ask this question.

"I'm not too sure either……"

Not only this [Magical Consciousness], but also the [Magical Shadow] he just got, and the [Magical Flame] he had fused before, all of them have a release option, and it says what kind of beast will appear!

After all, these things are still in short supply now. If Wang Tao gets similar things in the future, he might be able to give them a try. As for how to release the animals, they should be thrown into the wild...

Qu Shilin didn't know Wang Tao when she saw it, so she didn't ask any more questions. She carefully put the things away, and then went to see other trophies with Wang Tao.

In addition to [Magical Consciousness], the Zerg monster itself also exploded with two items.

One is the red [Level 5 Crystal Core·Psychic Defense] crystal core, and the other is the shell on its body.

[Obtain: Level 4·Iron Wall Carapace*1]

[Iron wall carapace: production material, has certain fireproof properties]

The defense of this Zerg is so strong, it should be related to the carapace on its body. Wang Tao was suddenly looking forward to it. Could it be that he would create another piece of equipment with high defensive power later?

Wang Tao handed these things to others to study, and he quickly took a look at the four loot gift bags that only he could see.

The first gift pack contains crystal cores, a total of 5, namely the red [Fourth-order Crystal Core·Almighty], the orange [Fourth-order Crystal Core·Promotion], the blue [Fourth-order Crystal Core·Awakening], the purple [Fourth-order Crystal Core·Defense] and the red [Fourth-order Crystal Core·Physical Enhancement].

Seeing these crystal cores, Wang Tao was very confused.

This Zerg has clearly awakened mental abilities, but it did not use its advantages to increase its mental abilities. Instead, it has abilities related to defense, like an iron lump that can release buffs... Could it be that the mission of this Zerg is to release [Spiritual Encouragement]?

Wang Tao was not very clear, but he thought about it carefully... If this kind of monster that can increase the status of the enemy appears on the battlefield, only by killing it can the battle be won, so some people want to rush over to perform a decapitation operation, but the Zerg is too tough and can't be killed at all! As a result, the final battle failed...

It seems quite reasonable to think so?

However, this is just Wang Tao's speculation. The specific situation can only be discovered slowly in the future.

The second and third loot packages contain keys and energy beads.

[Obtain: Awakening Key*1]

[Obtain: Awakening Energy Bead*1]

The last loot package naturally contains the production drawings, and this time there is only one drawing.

[Obtain: Iron Wall Armor Production Drawing*1]

[Iron Wall Armor Production Drawing: You can make a full body armor, the required materials: Iron Wall Shell 1, Fourth-level Crystal Core 1, Iron Block 30, Nail 30, Rubber 30, Screw 30, Steel Wire 30]

[Iron Wall Armor: Attributes Unknown]

Wang Tao has all these materials. He let Lightning swallow the body of the Zerg monster. While Qu Shilin was not paying attention, Wang Tao quickly made this set of equipment.

[Iron Wall Armor]

[Fourth-level Epic]

[Durability +100, Defense +80, Mental Defense +50, Poison Attribute Defense +50]

Wang Tao was a little surprised to see the attributes of this set of armor.

It not only adds 80 defense, but also 50 mental defense and poison defense each!

Among the fourth-level equipment, 80 defense is already the top, and Wang Tao has only seen two pieces of equipment with 50 mental defense. In addition, Wang Tao has never seen poison attribute defense... Each attribute is not weak, and the three attributes added together are even stronger!

Especially this poison attribute defense, most Zergs are poisonous, so wouldn't it be a great advantage to wear this set of equipment and fight against Zerg?

Wang Tao happily put away this set of armor. He can't use it now. He can fight against the fourth-level Zerg lord casually without difficulty. But if he opens the fifth-level meteorite later, it will obviously be safer to have this set of equipment!
