Chapter 556: The Fifth Level of Taking a Shortcut

Everyone was stunned.

Lu An was a fifth-level awakener. Even if he was promoted yesterday, he was a genuine fifth-level awakener! But he was kicked away by someone...

But the people present were not stupid. Almost no one thought it was luck. This was a crushing of strength - Lu An was crushed by the big guy! The other party was definitely a fifth-level awakener, and he was also very strong among the fifth-level awakeners!

The reason why it was "almost" was because Lu An, the person involved, did not feel that he was crushed. Or... he did not want to believe it.

He was promoted to the fifth level with great difficulty, and he had not had time to enjoy it... He did not want to believe that he was defeated by someone in one move. In addition, although he was kicked away, Wang Tao did not reveal his own momentum. He could not feel Wang Tao's true strength, and he himself was not injured, so he thought he was careless, and this big guy was just lucky!

"Looking for death!"

Lu An roared, appeared from the broken wall, and rushed towards Wang Tao again.

This made Wang Tao frown. He just came to teach Dong Li a lesson and show his strength. He didn't want to kill anyone, after all, killing people would not drop the loot package.

But this fat man obviously didn't know what was good for him, and he went straight to his knife! He didn't really think that the fifth level was the same as the fifth level, right?

Wang Tao was not a murderer, so he decided to give Lu An another chance.

So-

Bang!

Lu An was kicked away again, and even flew out of the hole in the wall very accurately.

No one saw it before, but this time they were prepared, and everyone saw clearly that Lu An was indeed kicked away in a plain and unpretentious way.

If the first time was really luck, then the second time, when Lu An was prepared, he was still kicked away in such a humiliating way, then this was no longer something that luck could explain.

This big guy is indeed much stronger than Lu An.

"Damn it, damn it!"

Lu An's face and even his whole body began to turn red, which was anger.

It was too insulting!

Originally this was his show-off meeting, but he ended up being a stepping stone?

This is simply too much!

However, Lu An also understood at this time that the opponent was indeed stronger than him!

After all, he had just been promoted to the fifth level, and his combat experience was not very sufficient, and he was still no match for those old fifth-level players. So Lu An shouted directly:

"Everyone, go and kill him!"

He might not be the opponent of this big guy, but the big guy came to the wrong place. Today is his promotion dinner, and everyone here is his! There are 6 fifth-level awakeners alone, including him! Add a large number of fourth-level awakeners, and this big guy can definitely be taken down!

But what Lu An didn't expect was that after he shouted, no one came forward. Whether it was his so-called friends or those who licked him in various ways, they were silent at this time.

Zi——

Lu An, who was originally rushing towards Wang Tao, braked directly.

If no one came up, then he would undoubtedly be humiliated again if he went over, and he didn't want to be kicked around like a ball again.

"You——"

Lü An looked at the others, with some anger and confusion in his eyes.

It's useless for me, a fifth-level awakener, to talk to the director of the Food Bureau, right?

At this time, among the several fifth-level awakeners who had been watching the show, a bald middle-aged man in formal clothes said with a smile:

"This friend should be from outside, right? There may be some misunderstandings between us. Don't worry, we can talk slowly if we have something to say..."

No one is a fool, especially these fifth-level awakeners. They know clearly how destructive the fifth-level awakeners are. If they conflict with Wang Tao at this time, others will be in trouble.

And most importantly, they can't see how strong Wang Tao is... The higher the position, the more afraid of death. What if they get hurt and others take their place?

The conflict between Lu An and Wang Tao can be said to be a personal grudge between the two of them. If other people also join in, then this is a grudge between Wang Tao and the Silver Snake Base, which is difficult to resolve...

In general, Wang Tao's strength is too strong. They think that the cost of conflicting with Wang Tao is too high and not worthwhile. It is best to resolve it peacefully. And from the look of Wang Tao, it seems that he doesn't know Lu An, so it may really be a misunderstanding...

Looking at this middle-aged man, Wang Tao raised his eyebrows.

He originally thought that these people would come together, and he wanted to test the strength of others, but he didn't expect them to be quite rational.

Did he just show too much strength?

"Who are you?"

Wang Tao asked directly.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Ge Fuxing, the president of the Silver Snake Medical Association."

Ge Fuxing subconsciously wanted to shake hands with Wang Tao, but thinking of the current situation, he quickly stopped his steps.

Although he is stronger than Lu An, he is actually not much stronger. If Wang Tao attacks him, his ending is probably similar to Lu An, so it is better to be cautious.

"Wang Tao."

Wang Tao also said his name generously.

He took a look at the attributes of Ge Fuxing.

[HP: 200000/200000]

[Mana: 100000/100000]

[Level: Level 5]

[Impurities in the body: 88%]

[Awakening: Strong]

If we only look at the data, the strength of these Level 5 awakeners seems to be not weak, because they all have about 200,000 HP.

But their awakenings are quite ordinary, and they are all very ordinary system awakenings.

And most importantly, their impurities in their bodies are ridiculously high. This Ge Fuxing has 88% impurities in his body!

Lu An, who was promoted yesterday, also has 82% impurities in his body. Among these fifth-level awakeners, the one with the most impurities in his body is a bald muscular man, up to 95%!

This is obviously abnormal, and Wang Tao has seen this situation before - the strength obtained through the summoning altar will have so many impurities in the body!

So it is obvious that these fifth-level awakeners all obtained their strength through sacrifice!

No wonder there are so many fifth-level awakeners in the Silver Snake Base, it is indeed related to the summoning altar. And it seems that it should not be the summoning altar that can summon the God of Fire, but other summoning altars!

Wang Tao's face did not change, but he sighed in his heart.

In fact, he really hopes that these people's strength is obtained through their own efforts, rather than taking shortcuts. What a pity...

"I just arrived in your place and thought I could make some friends, but I didn't expect to be auctioned off as a commodity by human traffickers... Is this how you treat guests?"

Wang Tao looked at everyone with a half-smile.

"Uh..."

Everyone present was stunned when he heard this.

No, the human traffickers abducted a fifth-level awakener? Is it true?

But if this fifth-level awakener did not reveal his true strength, it is indeed possible. After all, human traffickers don't care so much. As long as they are outsiders, even awakeners will be targeted by them!

And the human traffickers here...Everyone subconsciously looked at the woman who had just hidden behind Lu An.

Dong Li, the biggest human trafficker in the Silver Snake Base!

No wonder Wang Tao targeted Dong Li right away, and this Lu An was also unlucky. Not only did he block the knife for Dong Li, but he was also severely humiliated.

When Lu An heard what Wang Tao said, his face suddenly changed. It turned out that this person was not deliberately making trouble, but Dong Li provoked someone first, and he became a shield! The most important thing is that he has not blocked it yet!

The more Lu An thought about it, the angrier he became, and he wanted to kill Dong Li and Wang Tao.

At this time, Dong Li was very panicked. She never thought that the person she picked up at the door today turned out to be a fifth-level awakener, and a fifth-level awakener with such strong strength!

If she had known this earlier, she would not dare to do it even if she had ten thousand courage!

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Dong Li was scared and subconsciously wanted to hide behind Lu An again. After all, this was Lu An's promotion banquet, and Lu An had just molested her in public... So, Lu An should protect her, right?

Puff!

Dong Li just hid behind Lu An, and suddenly felt a pain in her chest.

A fat hand inserted into her chest and directly crushed her heart. A lot of blood spurted out, and Lu An was instantly drenched in blood.

"You..."

Dong Li's eyes were full of despair and unwillingness.

It was the same hand that had just been wandering around her body, but now it directly crushed her heart... Why was it so cruel!

Dong Li wanted to curse out loud, but the light in her eyes gradually disappeared.

Plop——

Dong Li, covered in blood, fell to the ground.

"Mr. Wang, I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen... Are you satisfied with the result of this handling?"

Ge Fuxing smiled and looked at Wang Tao. Facing Lu An's sudden killing, there was no fluctuation in his expression, as if it was not a person who died, but a chicken.

Lu An's face was still not very good. He actually didn't want to kill Dong Li. It's not that he was reluctant, but killing Dong Li meant that he bowed his head in front of everyone, and this loss was in vain!

But if he didn't kill Dong Li, there would be no way to resolve the conflict...Although he wanted to kill Wang Tao, he now understood that no one wanted to conflict with Wang Tao. If he insisted on fighting Wang Tao, no one would help him. At this time, he could only take the initiative to take a step back, otherwise it would only be more embarrassing.

Seeing Lu An so decisive, Wang Tao was somewhat surprised.

After all, he is not a big villain, and it is impossible for him to fight with someone for no reason. I wanted to take this opportunity to teach Lu An a lesson again... This is not giving him a chance.

Seeing Wang Tao not speaking, Ge Fuxing thought that Wang Tao was still dissatisfied, and he said:

"Although Dong Li's actions cannot replace the Silver Snake Base, she is a member of the Silver Snake Base after all, and the incident happened at the Silver Snake Base, so we still have a certain responsibility. We will compensate Mr. Wang for mental damages, and please don't blame Mr. Wang Tao..."

It must be said that Ge Fuxing is more capable than Lu An.

Of course, if Wang Tao did not show his strength, that would be another matter.

"Okay then."

Since people have said this, Wang Tao can't say anything more.

He came here this time mainly to show his strength and to contact the top leaders of the Silver Snake Base. Now the goal has been achieved, there is no need to pursue it.

"Haha, we are guests from afar. It's a good opportunity for us to apologize to Mr. Wang during Director Lu's dinner. What do you think?"

Ge Fuxing said hurriedly.

There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. Although their meeting with Wang Tao was a little unpleasant, they are all human beings and in the same camp. Wang Tao is so powerful that they definitely want to get to know him. If they can win him over to the Silver Snake Base, it will be even better.

Wang Tao nodded and agreed.

Ge Fuxing called the staff to patch up the hole in the wall and clean up the bodies and blood in the hall, and the banquet continued.

However, the protagonist of this banquet was originally the director of the Grain Bureau, Lu An, but now it has become the new Wang Tao. Without the tense atmosphere, many people are curious about Wang Tao...

"Mr. Wang, and this lady and... the dog, please sit down!"

Wang Tao naturally did not come alone, Jiang Shixue and Lightning also brought them. But just now everyone's eyes were on him, and no one paid attention to Jiang Shixue and Lightning.

As for those who were controlled by him and Zombie Snow, they are still in the hotel. Without the control of Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue, they will recover in a short time, but after recovery, whether there will be any sequelae, it is hard to say...

Ge Fuxing invited Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue to the table, and even moved a chair for Lightning very considerately. Although in their eyes, Lightning is just an ordinary military dog, after all, it was brought by Wang Tao and cannot be ignored.

"Where did Mr. Wang come from?"

After taking his seat, Ge Fuxing asked curiously.

Everyone at their table immediately looked at Wang Tao. People at other tables also pricked up their ears. Wang Tao is so powerful, he should not be from a small base, right? Is there another large base?

"Changhe Base."

Wang Tao said directly.

"Changhe Base?"

Everyone looked at each other, all puzzled, they had never heard of this name.

"Changhe Base? Never heard of it... I only know that there is a Changhe City in Xizhou Province..."

Ge Fuxing muttered to himself.

"It's right there."

Wang Tao nodded.

"Hiss-so far!"

Seeing Wang Tao nod, Ge Fuxing took a breath of cold air.

Although they are fifth-level awakeners, the range of their exploration in the end times is not large, and the distance they move is not too far.

This distance of hundreds of kilometers, even with their current strength, it is not certain whether they can reach it.

Shen Cuishan sat on the other side of Wang Tao, she already knew that "Liu Bo" was a fake name. Now she was shocked to hear that Wang Tao came from such a far place. No wonder he had such strong strength. He couldn't come here without some strength!

"Then your base is... destroyed?"

Ge Fuxing asked tentatively.

If the base was not destroyed, he couldn't understand why Wang Tao came all the way here. And if the base was really destroyed, then Wang Tao would be a target to fight for!

Although he had never fought with Wang Tao, he felt that Wang Tao's fighting power should be about the same as the strongest in their base. If he could get Wang Tao to join the Silver Snake Base, it would be of great benefit to the entire base and to him personally.

But Wang Tao was speechless when he heard this.

"Our base is fine. It's bigger than yours and has more people than you. I just came out to see if there are other survivor bases. If there are, maybe we can build a channel of communication and cooperate in the future. Although I found your Silver Snake base, you here..."

Wang Tao looked disgusted.

"..."

Come out for a walk?

Go hundreds of kilometers away?

This is ridiculous.

But Wang Tao didn't have to lie to them... When they heard Wang Tao say that he wanted to build a communication channel so that they could cooperate in the future, Ge Fuxing and several others' eyes lit up.

"Well, Mr. Wang, you may have some misunderstandings about our Silver Snake Base. Please allow me to explain..."
