Chapter 497 Getting the Fruit

"When the Awakening Fruit matures, it will indeed attract other creatures!"

Wang Tao frowned.

The last time the awakening fruit was ripe, the giant eagle suddenly came. But at that time, he wasn't sure if it was caused by the Awakening Fruit. After all, it was the first time. And now when the Awakening Fruit is about to mature, something comes over again, so this must not be a coincidence, it is caused by the Awakening Fruit!

But it was too far away, and Wang Tao couldn't see what kind of monster it was for the time being. He could only vaguely feel that something was approaching menacingly, most likely a fifth-level lord. And there seems to be more than one, it should have many younger brothers!

"An enemy is coming!"

Wang Tao said immediately.

"Ah? Got it!"

Although Pan Jian was surprised, didn't he say it was safe here? But he still informed everyone immediately to prepare them for possible accidents.

"When the awakening fruit matures, it will attract monsters."

Wang Tao gave a simple explanation.

"So that's it!"

Pan Jian suddenly realized.

When the students heard that a monster was coming, they were not afraid, but were very excited. Now they have many people and a lot of top-notch combat power, especially with Wang Tao, a fifth-level awakener, giving them a sense of security!

Soon, the tall awakening tree began to wither, and some golden awakening fruits appeared in everyone's sight.

"Wow!"

Many people subconsciously exclaimed that this scene was even more spectacular than what Wang Tao had described before.

Wang Tao and others had quick eyesight and quick hands, and collected all the ripe awakening fruits before they fell to the ground.

"More than last time, last time there were 33 awakening fruits, this time there are 99!"

After Wang Tao got the awakening fruit, he glanced at it. Except that the number was three times greater, the attributes were the same as before.

[Awakening Fruit: The taste is extremely delicious and loved by many creatures]

[After being eaten by third-level humans, they can be promoted to fourth level]

[After being eaten by third-level non-human beings, there is a small probability of awakening]

[After being consumed by humans of level 3 or above, 1 awakening key will be obtained]

[After being consumed by non-human beings of level 3 or above, the physical constitution will be slightly increased]

[After being eaten by creatures below level 3, they are likely to explode and die]

Wang Tao originally thought that these awakening fruits would be of no use to fourth-level awakeners like them.

But after seeing this information, Wang Tao remembered that eating humans above level three would increase the chance of obtaining the secret key to awakening! These 99 awakening fruits are equivalent to 99 physical awakening keys! He himself can't use it, after all, he already has enough secret keys, but Lan Yulian and others can still use it if they want to awaken for the second time.

But now is not the time to think about these things. Wang Tao immediately put away the awakening fruit and rushed to the front of the crowd.

At this time, in the darkness in front of the crowd, a large group of... zombies walked out!

"Zombies? Are there any zombies in this crack?"

Seeing the appearance of these zombies, everyone was a little confused and became more vigilant.

If there were zombies, they would have discovered them long ago, right? Could it be that these zombies are hiding somewhere? Then this zombie is too insidious!

Wang Tao's expression was not that surprising, especially when he saw that many zombies were missing arms and legs, his expression suddenly became a little strange.

"If I guessed correctly, these zombies should have jumped out of the crack, but the crack was very deep, so some zombies broke their legs..."

Wang Tao recalled the first time he saw the crack, a huge group of corpses fell into the crack. This time it is probably the smell of the awakening fruit that attracted the zombies outside...

Even if the zombies' limbs are missing, it will not affect their blood volume very much, but it will affect their ability to move, thus affecting their combat effectiveness.

Therefore, although there are quite a lot of these zombies, and their levels are not low, with the lowest being third-level elites, and most being fourth-level and fifth-level elites... their combat effectiveness is greatly reduced, which is not a cause for concern.

The main reason is that the fifth-level lord... has been found!

When zombies rushed over in a swarm, Wang Tao found the fifth-level lord - another frozen zombie lord!

Wang Tao has killed this kind of zombie lord before, but it was only the fourth level, and this is only the fifth level.

[HP: 402482/500000]

[Blue amount: 400000/400000]

[Level: Level 5·Lord]

[Awakening: Ice Cone Summon]

[Ice Cone Summoning: Summon a huge ice cone]

[Status: Frozen Halo]

[Freezing Halo: The movement speed is reduced, the ice attribute defense is increased, and the attack is added with ice attribute. Enemies within a radius of fifteen meters will be slowed down and their ice attribute defense will be reduced]

Compared with the previous fourth-level frozen zombie lord, this fifth-level one is obviously stronger. But when it limped over with black blood on its forehead, Wang Tao felt a little unable to hold himself tight.

Obviously, it not only broke its leg, but also hit its head, and nearly 100,000 blood was lost...

But this is a good thing, it allows Wang Tao to save some energy.

He immediately said loudly:

"These are frozen zombies, and there is also a fifth-level frozen zombie lord! Remember what the teacher taught you, and try not to get close to the frozen zombies!"

Before going out, the teacher has told the students about the situations they will encounter outside.

When they heard that these were frozen zombies and a lord, the students suddenly became nervous.

Because they know that swarms of frozen zombies are scary. If there is a lord among these frozen zombies, it will be even scarier!

Because as long as these frozen zombies gather together, their strength is 1+1 greater than 2! And if there is a frozen zombie lord, then 1+1 is greater than 4 or even higher!

With this fifth-level lord, their overall strength will definitely double!

And to deal with these zombies, it is best to attack remotely. If you get too close and are covered by the frozen aura, it will be troublesome! But many of them are close-range...

At this time, the teachers didn't know how to command. It's not that they are afraid, but they are mainly worried about the loss of students. After all, the strength of these students is still much worse.

Seeing this, He Jijun immediately took the initiative to stand up. He took over the command and spoke in an orderly manner.

"Team 1 top, Team 2 prepares to rotate, Team 3 protects the flank..."

At this critical moment, it depends on professional soldiers.

After Wang Tao confirmed that they were all fine, he didn't hesitate. Flames instantly ignited on his body, directly illuminating this dark space, and then Wang Tao was like a meteor, smashing directly into the zombie group.

"Hiss——"

This was the first time that Wang Tao used [Sparks] in front of them. Except for He Jijun and the others, everyone else was shocked.

"Don't be dazed!"

It was He Jijun's roar that brought everyone back to their senses.

They immediately adjusted their formation according to He Jijun's instructions, but they didn't stop talking. After all, this was too shocking.

"Oh my God! The principal has turned into a fire man!"

"So strong! I can feel the scorching temperature from such a distance!"

"It turned out to be a flame awakening? Teacher, I want to learn this too!"

"I remember the teacher said that flames are a natural nemesis for frozen zombies!"

"But didn't the principal's awakening involve systemic aspects? How can this be flame?"

"It is said that some powerful awakeners can awaken twice..."

"..."

Not to mention these students, even the awakened teachers were very shocked and envious. This was also the first time they saw Wang Tao use [Sparks], whether it was the visual effect or the temperature that seemed to be able to roast people, it was something that most people could not compare to. Especially compared with their own awakening, they felt so low...

On the other side, Wang Tao heard the exclamations of the crowd, but he had already gotten used to it and didn't care.

He rushed towards the fifth-level frozen zombie lord. The frozen aura that could cause great trouble to humans had no effect on Wang Tao who used [Sparks Spreading Across the Land].

He raised the flaming spear and instantly stabbed the zombie's forehead.

Puff!

[-51248]

[Curse: Bleeding]

One spear killed 50,000 blood, Wang Tao was not very satisfied, so two rays of light shot out of his eyes instantly.

[-22842]

[-21334]

[-23192]

In just one second, Wang Tao directly killed the frozen zombie lord with more than 100,000 blood!

The attack of the frozen zombie lord was slowly delayed.

Looking at the pile of ice cones that appeared out of thin air above his head, Wang Tao held the spear with both hands, poked the head of the frozen zombie lord, and ran forward quickly.

Boom boom --

The huge ice cone fell to the ground, but Wang Tao and the frozen zombie lord had already escaped its attack range.

Wang Tao himself was of course fine, and the others were also playing defense and counterattack under the command of He Jijun, and did not come over. Therefore, these ice cones fell directly on other zombies.

Puff!

The ice cones were indiscriminate attacks, and a large number of zombies died under the ice cones.

"You are a good person!"

Wang Tao grinned, then waved the spear again and poked at the frozen zombie lord.

"Roar --"

The frozen zombie lord roared, but it was restrained by Wang Tao and his blood volume dropped wildly.

Before raising his hand to use the second ice cone, Wang Tao ended its life with a spear.

Puff!

【-28394】

【0/500000】

This time Wang Tao was unlucky and did not go out to kill. But it doesn't matter, it's just a few more stabs.

Maybe for others, this group of frozen zombies is difficult to deal with and is a deadly threat. But for Wang Tao, who has awakened the fire ability, these frozen zombies are very weak and easier to deal with than those mutant plants. In addition, Wang Tao has experience before, so even if it is a fifth-level lord, it is not difficult.

Once the frozen zombie lord died, the combat effectiveness of other frozen zombies was greatly reduced instantly. Wang Tao took advantage of the fact that the spark was still in the state of spreading wildfire and immediately threw out several shock waves, directly killing a large number of zombies, and then went to deal with several fifth-level elite zombies. Seeing that the remaining zombies should not pose a threat to the students, Wang Tao stopped.

He only brought students to experience, not to be a nanny. He just solved the biggest threat and let them do the rest.

Although their strength was far inferior to Wang Tao's, they were able to fight with ease against enemies who were stronger and more numerous than themselves under the organization of He Jijun.

Wang Tao didn't have to wait too long before all the zombies fell to the ground.

Pa pa pa!

Wang Tao applauded the panting group of people.

"You performed very well!"

The students were naturally happy to be praised. However, while they were happy and excited, they felt a little uncomfortable because they were hit...

They knew that Wang Tao was very strong and his awakening was also very cool. But this was a fifth-level zombie lord!

They thought that this battle would take a long time to end, and it might be the longest battle they had fought since they explored the cave.

As a result... their battle time was indeed not short, but Wang Tao rushed over and solved the fifth-level lord in just a few seconds!

Even if Wang Tao was a fifth-level awakener, this was too outrageous!

At this time, if Wang Tao said that he was a sixth-level awakener, most people would probably believe it.

After all, everything is afraid of comparison. They saw Wang Tao show his true strength for the first time, but he became a background board... It's uncomfortable to think about it.

However, Wang Tao is the principal, and it is reasonable that these students are not as strong as the principal!

Many people found such an excuse for themselves, and they felt much more comfortable.

After everyone had built the battlefield in an orderly manner and looted the spoils, Wang Tao waved his hand and said:

"Let's go back to the stone forest."

"Yes!"

The group returned to the stone forest again.

"Hmm? Did the zombies come from here?"

After returning to the stone forest, everyone found that this place seemed to have been trampled. There were a lot of footprints on the ground, and some temporary tents collapsed.

"Hiss--Luckily, Principal Wang, you are wise! Take people away in advance! Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous..."

Seeing this scene, Pan Jian was suddenly a little scared.

This is the footprints left by the frozen zombie group just now, which means that the zombie group just passed by here!

If Wang Tao hadn't taken them to see the awakening fruit before, they would have met this group of zombies. With their strength, Pan Jian didn't think that his group could resist the frozen zombie group led by the fifth-level zombie lord!

"Thank you, Principal!"

Others also thought of this, and they were suddenly scared. They were more grateful to Wang Tao.

This made Wang Tao frown.

It seems that, by chance, he saved their lives.

But this is not the focus of Wang Tao's attention. The point is, if a large number of zombies suddenly come again, and Wang Tao and his group are not there, how can others resist?

This probability is very small, but judging from the previous situation, it is indeed possible... What if someone else has also planted the awakening fruit?

Wang Tao wants to train these students, but not to let them die. Moreover, Wang Tao is preparing to go back and awaken for the fourth time. He wants to keep the students here to continue training for a few days...

"We have to strengthen their strength..."

Wang Tao touched his chin and said.

There are many ways to increase strength. Awakening is naturally the most direct, but it is unrealistic to let so many people awaken, and one or two awakenings are useless... Then we can only consider external objects.

"Maybe we can give them this head to try..."

A head appeared in Wang Tao's hand, which was dropped by the fifth-level frozen zombie lord just killed.
