Chapter 526 Mammoth Base
"Evil God? What the hell?"
Wang Tao frowned.
He is an atheist and has never believed in such things.
But now is the end of the world. In order to seek psychological comfort or find a sustenance for their own spirits, some survivors have begun to believe in things they did not believe before. Just like the Twilight Church before, it is an example.
Not to mention that there are indeed many magical existences in the end of the world that no one can explain now. To a certain extent, these can be regarded as "miracles."
So in fact, many survivors are still willing to believe in gods and immortals.
Changhe Base has always been laissez-faire in terms of faith. After all, everyone also needs a spiritual sustenance. But since the Twilight Church incident came out, the base has begun to issue some relevant policies.
To put it simply, if you believe in some gods that you were familiar with before, no one will care about you, as long as you don't cause trouble or affect other people. But if you believe some nonsense, you will be arrested and sent to a labor camp.
The evil god mentioned in Gu Yun's message requires human sacrifice in exchange for power, which is obviously not a serious thing.
However, Wang Tao could not judge what the specific situation was based on just one piece of news.
Wang Tao felt that this so-called evil god might be some kind of mutated beast with certain intelligence; or it might be some kind of weird phenomenon; or it might be an excuse that the rulers just found to satisfy their perverted hobbies; or even It's also possible that this is a fisherman who deliberately lures people over there and prepares an ambush over there...
"Is there any detailed information from Mammoth Base?"
Wang Tao asked.
"No, just like last time, the communication was cut off before I could say a few words. Then I couldn't contact you again."
Gu Yun explained.
"Then what do you think?"
Wang Tao asked directly.
"I think you can go or not. Those people have no intention of coming to our base anyway, and we don't need to help them. But I am quite curious about the Mammoth Base. Isn't it said that there are thousands of survivors there... maybe , we can take this opportunity to capture the Mammoth Base!"
Gu Yun did not hide it, but directly told Wang Tao his true thoughts.
He didn't care about the few people who left the sea base, but didn't he say that there were thousands of survivors in the Mammoth base? It would be great if so many people could get to the Changhe base.
In the past, they had no interaction with the Mammoth Base. Even if they had this idea, it would be hard to directly rob people. After all, there are hundreds of thousands of survivors in the Changhe Base. Every move made by the City Hall must be mindful of the impact, and the reputation of the City Hall must not be damaged. If you really want to do this, you must have a famous teacher.
And now, the opportunity has come - it's not that we took the initiative to cause trouble for your Mammoth Base, but that the people from the Dahai Base asked us for help. We and the Dahai Base are allies and cannot ignore it!
"You kid..."
Wang Tao didn't think so much. After listening to Gu Yun's words, he was speechless.
But it makes sense to think about it. In the end of the world, these ordinary survivors are both humble and precious. Humble means easy to die suddenly, and some rulers do not treat ordinary survivors as human beings. Precious means that the construction of the base cannot be separated from these ordinary survivors.
In order to grow the Changhe base, Gu Yun naturally would not dislike the large number of survivors. And if the survivors really come to Changhe Base, their lives will definitely be better than before. It's a win-win situation.
"Okay, then I'll go there and see what's going on."
Wang Tao nodded.
"I'm sorry to bother you! Now you are the only one who has the ability to go out so far, otherwise I will definitely not bother you..." Gu Yun was overjoyed, and then said, "Also, you have to be careful, in case this is a trap... Do you need help? I can send you some troops!"
"That's no need. It's more convenient for me to be alone."
Wang Tao shook his head.
Unless there are some sixth-level awakeners or sixth-level lords, Wang Tao doesn't have to worry about traps. Mammoth Base obviously does not have this strength, otherwise they would have captured the Dahai Base long ago.
"Okay, then tell me when you set off. I will be ready to pick up the survivors."
Gu Yun had obviously acquiesced that Wang Tao would bring back the survivors of Mammoth Base.
Wang Tao shook his head:
"Then tomorrow morning."
"good!"
After ending the call, Wang Tao briefly talked about the matter with everyone.
Although everyone was a little curious, they didn't say much. They just told Wang Tao to pay attention to safety. They came back for supplies this time and planned to continue going to the cracks tomorrow to save more crystal cores and advance to the fifth level.
"Brother, I want to go with you."
Jiang Shixue suddenly pulled Wang Tao's clothes and whispered.
She felt that only by working with Wang Tao could she be promoted. After all, her previous promotions were all with Wang Tao. Plus the lightning example was here, so she took the initiative to speak.
Wang Tao thought for a moment and nodded directly.
"Okay, let's go together then."
He had asked Jiang Shixue and Ding Yuqin to fight in the crack together because Jiang Shixue had night vision and her vision in the crack was wider than theirs. However, it turns out that night demons with night vision are indeed a good tool for exploring cracks. They all have sixth-level night demon hearts in their hands. When controlling the night demons, they can share the night demon's field of vision without worrying about being invisible. So there is no problem in letting Jiang Shixue follow him.
When Jiang Shixue heard Wang Tao agreed, a happy smile suddenly appeared on her face.
The next day, Wang Tao first sent Ding Yuqin and her group to the crack, and then took Jiang Shixue, Lightning and Golden Eagle to fly towards the location of the Mammoth Base.
A few hours later, Wang Tao saw the dark and winding crack again.
"It should be the area in front. The three of us will go down. Xiao Jin, you can move freely. The space in the crack is limited and you can't move freely."
Wang Tao was afraid that the Golden Eagle would be hungry, so he took out a bunch of nutrient solution and inserted it into the Golden Eagle's feathers, letting it drink it when it was hungry.
"Chi~"
The Golden Eagle responded and lowered its altitude.
Lightning jumped down impatiently. After all, it is now a fifth-level lord, and this height is not a problem for it.
Wang Tao's physical fitness is naturally not comparable to Lightning, a pervert with more than one million blood, plus Jiang Shixue is still fourth-level, so he has to take care of her. So he directly reached out and hugged Jiang Shixue in his arms, and then jumped.
Swish——
A pair of huge dark red wings appeared from behind Wang Tao, flapped a few times, and landed steadily on the snow.
"These wings are really convenient..."
Wang Tao said to himself after folding his wings.
However, seeing Jiang Shixue's slightly envious eyes, he smiled and rubbed Jiang Shixue's hair.
"I'll make you a pair of wings later!"
"Okay~"
Jiang Shixue squinted happily.
The two of them and the dog came to the edge of a crack, which was where Zou Jian entered before.
"It should be below here, let's go down."
After Wang Tao went down, his brows frowned slightly.
He felt that the black fog in this crack was much thicker than the one he went to before.
Although it didn't affect him much, it had a great impact on most people, and the already limited visibility was further reduced.
Wang Tao took out an ultraviolet flashlight and tried it. It felt like a firefly... I don't know how the survivors here live.
However, as he walked down, Wang Tao unexpectedly found that the concentration of the black fog inside was much lighter.
When he stepped on the land under the crack, the black fog here was almost gone. There were several burning braziers around, which directly illuminated the area. However, Wang Tao did not see any buildings related to the base, and did not know where the Mammoth Base was for the time being.
"Huh? Interesting..."
Wang Tao did not know what the principle was. According to his previous experience in the crack, the further down he went, the thicker the black fog should be. As a result, it seemed to be the opposite here...
"Who are you!"
At this time, four men wearing thick cotton clothes and holding machetes in their hands came over. They looked at Wang Tao, Jiang Shixue and Lightning vigilantly, with some doubts.
They had been guarding the entrance here for a long time, and it was the first time they saw a stranger take the initiative to find this place.
And with the bad weather outside, ordinary people could not come here at all! So the big guy in front of him is most likely a fourth-level awakener! The little girl and the dog are probably also third-level! The four of them together are not opponents!
Wang Tao had already discovered them when he came down. These four people were all second-level strength and did not pose any threat. However, the impurities in their bodies were not low, about 70 to 80 percent. This is obviously the unlucky guy who has fused too many white crystal cores.
"Your Mammoth Base has captured our people. I'm here to ask you for an explanation."
Wang Tao said with a cold face.
Since he was going to take advantage of the situation this time, Wang Tao didn't have a good face.
Hearing Wang Tao directly call out the name of their Mammoth Base and saying that the Mammoth Base had captured their people, the four people's faces changed.
Those who are looking for trouble are still well prepared!
The four people looked at each other, and one of them immediately said:
"We at the Mammoth Base didn't capture people randomly, don't slander us! In addition, which base do you represent?"
"The ally of the Sea Base..."
Wang Tao said truthfully.
Hearing the four words "Sea Base", the four people looked a little strange.
Wasn't there news a few days ago that everyone at the Sea Base had left? There were also a few people from the Sea Base who joined them, but those people seemed to have made the boss unhappy, and they might be sacrificed...
"Then you wait, I'll report it!"
One person said immediately.
Although Wang Tao was obviously looking for trouble, he didn't dare to chase Wang Tao away. After all, it's no longer a society ruled by law. He was not as strong as anyone else, and he didn't dare to speak loudly. Of course, he didn't dare to let Wang Tao in, otherwise the boss would peel his skin off!
"Inform?" Wang Tao frowned, and then said in a tone that could not be refused, "Lead the way."
A small Mammoth Base, and he still had to wait outside? Wang Tao was not really here to visit, so there was no need to be polite.
When these people saw Wang Tao's tough attitude, they trembled in their hearts.
"You, don't go too far, this is the territory of the Mammoth Base. Dare you break in without permission? Are you going to provoke a war between the two bases!"
Where is all the nonsense? War? Are you worthy?
Looking at the four people's fierce appearance, Wang Tao's mental power moved.
"Lead the way."
The faces of the four people suddenly became dull, and then they turned around stiffly as if they had lost their souls, picked up the torches beside them, and walked in front obediently to lead the way.
Wang Tao's mental strength is extremely strong, so controlling this second-level weakling is a piece of cake for him.
The space inside this crack is not flat. There are many deep pits, boulders, stone walls and so on. The real location of the Mammoth Base is a distance away from the entrance. If there is no one to lead the way, Wang Tao may have to look for a while.
"Is this the Mammoth Base... They know how to choose a place."
In front of Wang Tao, there appeared a place surrounded by artificial stone walls, natural stone walls and terrain. Through the two doors welded with thick steel bars, you can see a lot of fire inside.
The people in the Mammoth Base are lucky to find such a place in the crack.
"Lao Liu, why are you back?"
At this time, someone stuck his head out of the stone wall.
However, when they saw two people and a dog following the four people, they were surprised.
"Who are they? New here? I haven't heard of any new people coming today?"
Lao Liu and the other four did not speak, but just stood there blankly.
Wang Tao raised his head and said calmly:
"You Mammoth Base captured people from our ally, the Sea Base. I came to you to ask for an explanation."
"Ah?"
The people on the wall were stunned, and only reacted after a moment. They came to cause trouble! There are a few people here who came from the Sea Base, but those people have been selected as sacrifices and cannot be handed over.
Is there anyone who dares to cause trouble for their Mammoth Base? I have never seen such a thing in my life!
However, looking at the appearance of this big guy, he should be a fourth-level awakener, otherwise, with the shrewdness of Lao Liu and the others, he would definitely come to report the news! No wonder they didn't speak, they were obviously threatened!
"Friend, are you sure you want to cause trouble for our Mammoth Base? Even if you are an awakener, I advise you to think twice!"
The man on the stone wall quickly contacted the boss while speaking.
Although a fourth-level awakener is nothing to the entire Mammoth Base. But for him who is at the third level, it is obviously not an opponent. So he had to call people over quickly, and the awakeners naturally had to be dealt with by awakeners.
Wang Tao heard the alarm inside, his face remained unchanged, and he was too lazy to pay attention to the man on the wall, just waiting quietly outside the door.
After a while, the steel door opened directly, and a group of people rushed out.
Yao Hai had told Wang Tao before that there were a total of 7 awakeners in the Mammoth Base.
But now, there are 14 fourth-level awakeners standing in front of Wang Tao, which is doubled!
The leader was a slightly fat, middle-aged man who looked very kind. He smiled and said:
"Friend, we don't have any people from the Sea Base in our Mammoth Base. There were a few people who came from the Sea Base before, but they left the Sea Base a long time ago and are now our people in the Mammoth Base. So, I think you misunderstood something..."
