Chapter 552: Mysterious Fire Ring and Mysterious Fire Badge

"Mysterious Fire Pearl... good stuff!"

It was the first time that Wang Tao saw something that increased both fire defense and fire attack at the same time - the Mysterious Fire Pearl increased fire defense and fire attack by 20% respectively, and it was permanent. And Wang Tao's main means of attack is fire!

So for Wang Tao, this thing is equivalent to increasing his damage by 20%!

And Wang Tao has already set his sights on this so-called God of Fire. If he has a chance in the future, he will definitely kill this God of Fire. For him, this 20% fire defense is also crucial.

This thing is simply tailor-made for him!

Without any hesitation, Wang Tao immediately put the Mysterious Fire Pearl in his mouth.

Just like the fusion of the crystal core, the Mysterious Fire Pearl vaporized directly after entering Wang Tao's mouth. After a while, Wang Tao felt his body warm and comfortable.

"Really good!"

After fusing the Mysterious Fire Pearl, Wang Tao looked at the last trophy package, which contained two drawings.

[Obtained: Xuanhuo Ring Production Drawing*1]

[Obtained: Xuanhuo Badge Production Drawing*1]

"Huh? Ring and... Badge?"

This ring surprised Wang Tao a little, after all, there are relatively few ring-type equipment. But Wang Tao didn't expect that there is also a badge-type equipment. This is the first time he has seen this kind of equipment.

[Xuanhuo Ring Production Drawing: You can make a ring. The required materials are: 6th-level crystal core*1, flame finger bones*3]

[Xuanhuo Badge: Fire attribute enhancement]

[Xuanhuo Badge Production Drawing: You can make a badge. The required materials are: 6th-level crystal core*1, flame finger bones*2]

[Xuanhuo Badge: Fire attribute enhancement]

Wang Tao immediately took out the materials and made the ring first.

[Mysterious Fire Ring]

[Level 6 (Epic)]

[Fire Attack +50, Fire Defense +50, Power: Flame Jet (Requires activation by a Fire Awakener)]

[Flame Jet: Stores a certain amount of fire energy, can be sprayed continuously or burst]

"Added 50 points of fire attack and 50 points of fire defense!"

Wang Tao's eyes lit up immediately.

The Mysterious Fire Pearl he just fused adds 20% to the fire defense and attack. Generally speaking, the upper limit of this 100% bonus is relatively large. But the premise is that the basic attributes are high enough. For example, there are only 10 points of fire attack in total, even if it is added by 20%, it is only 12 points.

Of course, Wang Tao doesn't know how many fire attacks he has, so he can't guess how much the bonus is. But with these 50 points of fire attack and defense, his percentage bonus will be much higher!

And this ring also comes with a power. Looking at the introduction, it seems that it can still store energy. Wang Tao is a fire awakener, so he can use it.

The properties of this ring are very suitable for Wang Tao. Although Wang Tao has worn many rings, he has 10 fingers after all, so he can continue to wear them.

Wang Tao immediately put on the Xuanhuo Ring and activated it with awakening energy.

[Flame Spray (0/10000)]

This ability shows that it can store up to 10,000. Wang Tao tried it with awakening energy. 1 point of awakening energy can be converted into 10 points of flame energy. These 10,000 points of flame energy can be replenished with only 1,000 awakening energy.

Wang Tao consumed a few points of awakening energy to try the effect.

He raised his hand and a small flame sprayed out from his palm, then quickly grew larger, filling half of the cave with flames...

After some testing, Wang Tao understood the specific effect of this ability.

If it is continuously sprayed, only 1 point of flame energy is consumed per second. If the 10,000 flame energy is fully stored, it can be sprayed for more than two hours!

If the burst spray is used, all the fire attribute energy will be sprayed out in a short time, and it cannot be cancelled after the spray. Even if there are 10,000 fire attribute energies, they will be exhausted soon. This mode consumes a lot of energy, but the damage is very high!

The burst jet is a bit similar to Wang Tao's [Explosive Flame] ability. Explosive Flame consumes all awakening energy and explodes instantly. Since Wang Tao learned the explosive flame ability, he has basically not used it much, because explosive flame is too extreme and belongs to the ability of walking on a tightrope. If all the awakening energy is consumed and the enemy is not solved, then Wang Tao will be in danger. And explosive flame is not a single high-damage ability, but a large-scale damage ability, and Wang Tao has no chance to use it.

This burst jet is different. It can store awakening energy in advance, and only 1,000 awakening energy is needed to reach the upper limit. Wang Tao does not have to worry about the awakening energy being exhausted.

However, there is no suitable target for the time being, and the specific power of this ability can only be tested later.

After a simple test, Wang Tao immediately replenished the energy of this Xuanhuo ring, and at the same time, he also made the second equipment.

[Mysterious Fire Badge]

[Level 6 (Epic)]

[Fire Attack +10%, Fire Defense +10%, Attack Power +10%, Defense Power +10%]

This is an orange badge, like a jumping flame. Its attributes are nothing fancy, but it made Wang Tao's eyes widen.

"They are all useful attributes, and they are percentage increases, and they are all increased by 10%!"

Wang Tao tried to put this badge on his chest, and it was like a magnet, instantly sucked on his chest armor. No matter how hard he tried, the badge would not fall off unless he took the initiative to take it off.

"Not bad!"

The two pieces of equipment exploded by the sixth-level disaster zombies can increase Wang Tao's combat effectiveness, and they do not require Wang Tao to replace other equipment and can be used at the same time. Coupled with the previous Xuanhuo Bead... Wang Tao killed a sixth-order disaster-level zombie, and his combat effectiveness increased by at least 30%! This was a complete surprise.

…

After counting the loot, Wang Tao left the cave with this disaster-level corpse.

Not long after, Wang Tao returned to Jiang Shixue.

Seeing this zombie corpse still burning with flames, Jiang Shixue was a little curious.

"This is the sixth-level disaster-level zombie..."

Wang Tao had already used the induction ring to tell Jiang Shixue what was going on down there, and told her not to worry.

"Yes. Due to the special nature of the disaster-level body, the flames on its body may not be eliminated for a while, but it is not a big problem and there is no harm... This corpse will be brought back to the base and kept for planting awakening fruits."

Wang Tao said briefly, then looked at Lightning and rubbed its head hard.

"Not bad, not bad. You have done a great job this time. I will add chicken drumsticks to you when I go back!"

If not for Lightning's reminder, Wang Tao might have just left. After all, his mental detection range is far inferior to Lightning's nose. It would be a huge loss if this sixth-level disaster-level zombie was allowed to die naturally in the cave.

"Woof~"

Lightning, who received the praise, swung its tail crazily, and a lot of gravel around it was shattered by its tail.

"Okay, let's go"

Wang Tao randomly took a weapon from his space backpack, stuck it on the flaming zombie, and then dragged it away.

Although Wang Tao is a fire awakener, this does not mean that he is immune to fire damage. The flames on the zombies are still very painful to burn.

Not far away, Shen Cuishan was a little surprised when she saw Wang Tao dragging a zombie body burning with flames from nowhere.

However, seeing that Wang Tao was not prepared to say more, it did not dare to ask any more questions.

"Tell me what you know honestly."

Wang Tao looked at Shen Cuishan and said.

"Okay! Here's what happened..."

Shen Cuishan did not dare to hide anything and immediately told everything she knew...

After being separated from Wang Tao at the factory last time, Shen Cuishan originally planned to go back to Silver Snake Base to rest and not come out for a short time. After experiencing life and death once, she was also afraid.

But after returning to the Silver Snake base, she got a message from her secret channel - his allies, that is, a group of people who had gained strength in the "Iron Mountain Cave", had received instructions from the Vulcan and said they were preparing to come. A big sacrifice. This time Vulcan will select 12 people to become fifth-level awakened ones!

Fifth-level awakened ones, it is impossible for anyone who hears this news not to be moved.

If there are only one or two places, Shen Cuishan knows how much she weighs, so she will definitely not be able to get her turn, but this time there are 12 places!

Compared with these people, although her strength is not the strongest, she is still in the top ten. She feels that she has a chance.

So, she went to a secret stronghold of her allies and prepared to fight for it.

The result was pretty much what she expected. It didn't take much effort for her to become one of the 12 people.

But this is just the beginning. If you want to make a sacrifice, you must have a sacrifice. And there are a lot of sacrifices this time, a total of 108 humans are needed!

Although the Silver Snake base is relatively chaotic, if there are so many ordinary people missing in a short period of time, unless everyone is blind, they will definitely be discovered.

There are many criminals in the prison, but their affairs must be hidden from the light, and it is impossible.

Just when they were thinking of a way, several of their allies said that they had a way, and they only needed to pay them a certain amount of hard work, and they would take care of the sacrifice matter.

Shen Cuishan still had some assets in her hands, so she directly chose to spend money on things.

After spending the money, she learned that these people had discovered the survivor camp in the wild and were going to trick them into the Iron Mountain Cave on the pretext of bringing them to the Silver Snake Base.

Things went smoothly and these people were successfully tricked into the cave.

What happened next was that Wang Tao saw it. When they were about to start the sacrifice, they found that there were too many people and the sacrifice could not be started. After Wang Tao and others ran out, the sacrifice suddenly started automatically. Only then did Shen Cuishan and others realize that they had become sacrifices...

After Shen Cuishan finished explaining, a red fruit suddenly appeared in Wang Tao's hand.

"Have you seen this?"

"Isn't this the food that the God of Vulcan rewards us? After eating it, our physique will strengthen within a certain period of time, and we don't have to worry about thirst within a day. The God of Vulcan often rewards us with these things, but I just wanted to spend money to buy them. As a sacrifice, I sold the fruits in my hand to other allies..."

Hearing this, Wang Tao was speechless.

It's true that they believe whatever the God of Fire says.

"This thing is not food, but the medicine that summons the altar..."

Wang Tao explained the function of this medicine in detail.

"Ah?" Shen Cuishan was stunned. It took her a long time to realize, "If you eat this, will it become a sacrifice?"

"It's not easy to become a sacrifice. It requires some prerequisites. This is why we are fine."

"It turns out... we are also sacrifices... I thought it was our poor performance that angered the God of Fire, which led to the punishment... But I didn't expect that we were already sacrifices..."

Looking at Shen Cuishan who was somewhat desperate, Wang Tao thought that this woman was hopeless.

Even though she almost turned into blood, she still didn't think that the so-called God of Fire was deliberately harming her. She even thought that she had angered the God of Fire and it was her fault... She was really hopeless.

"But, but if the God of Fire wanted to kill us from the beginning, it could have done it a long time ago, right? Why wait until now?"

Shen Cuishan wanted to struggle again.

"Because the God of Fire needs you to provide him with sacrifices, you are all tools. Now including you, its sacrifices are just enough, so it sacrificed you."

Wang Tao explained ruthlessly.

"It obviously improved the strength of many of us... If it wanted to sacrifice us, why bother..."

Shen Cuishan was still looking for excuses.

"Because if I don't do this, you won't believe him. Just like you now, even though I have put the facts in front of you, you still don't want to believe it..."

Wang Tao shook his head.

"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just... it's just that I got a lot of benefits from the God of Fire after all..."

The reason why she was able to awaken and have the current strength is related to the God of Fire. If it weren't for the God of Fire, she might have died long ago. That's why she couldn't accept that the God of Fire had been cheating her for a long time, and she would rather believe that she angered the God of Fire...

"These so-called benefits of yours are actually to provide more energy to the God of Fire when you become a sacrifice. I don't know where the God of Fire is, but its purpose is obviously to come here. If the sacrifice is enough, it can come. At that time, facing a monster of at least the seventh level of destruction, let alone you, the entire Silver Snake Base will be destroyed."

To be honest, the God of Fire can enhance their strength without using the summoning altar. This technology is indeed very powerful.

Wang Tao speculated that this is probably related to the sixth-level disaster-level zombie. Perhaps the God of Fire has this ability to transfer the strength of the sixth-level disaster-level zombie into the human body. After all, the zombie was too weak, as if it had been sucked dry.

This is probably why the impurities in the bodies of Shen Cuishan and other sacrifices are not as many as those in Wang Tao's stone god sacrifices...

"Seventh level... Destruction level..."

Shen Cuishan heard this word for the first time.

Wang Tao was too lazy to explain it to her.

"Okay, you go back to the Silver Snake Base first, I will find you again."

Wang Tao was originally going to go to the Silver Snake Base with her, but now there is a sixth-level disaster-level zombie corpse. He plans to take the corpse back and plant the awakening seed before coming to the Silver Snake Base. Anyway, the golden eagle can fly, so it won't take much time.

"Okay..."
