Chapter 588 Three Thousand Tons of Food
Wang Tao looked at the time and saw that it was already night.
Facing the crowd who were still extremely excited, he smiled and said:
"It's very late. You all should go and rest. I'll take you to the granary tomorrow to take a look. Oh, by the way, my name is Wang Tao."
Wang Tao has to wait for the awakening fruit to mature in the past two days. Since he has nothing to do anyway, he will help Zizhu Base solve the current problems.
"Yes! Lord Wang Tao!"
Everyone left a little excited.
Although Wang Tao did not agree to become their leader, Wang Tao promised to help them solve the problem. This is naturally the best thing for the entire base.
As for making Wang Tao the leader, they still didn't give up. They went back and gave it a try. They couldn't give up so easily anyway. After all, it was a once-in-a-lifetime chance to meet a leader with good character and strength. You must seize the opportunity!
Not long after Zhao Yaru and others left, Wang Tao felt something move in his pocket.
Jiji——
Two little heads came out of Wang Tao's pocket one after another, and then immediately climbed onto Wang Tao's shoulders, excitedly telling Wang Tao that they were at level five.
The two young ferrets have grown slightly larger, but overall, they are still very small. It is hard to imagine that these are two fifth-order lord-level creatures.
However, being small also has small advantages. For example, they are very flexible and ordinary attacks cannot defeat them.
"Haha, not bad, not bad!"
Wang Tao smiled and stroked the heads of the two little minks, and then took a look at their attributes.
[HP: 500000/500000]
[Blue amount: 300000/300000]
[Level: Level 5·Lord]
[Awakening: Frost Shot]
The attributes of the two minks are almost identical. They are both fifth-level lords with 500,000 blood and 300,000 blue. It's just that their awakenings are different. One is frost shooting and the other is fire jet.
"It feels like mutant beasts and zombies have more advantages than humans in terms of blood volume!"
Wang Tao sighed a little.
After a human is promoted, there is no change in blood volume and mana volume. However, when creatures such as mutant beasts and zombies are promoted, their blood volume and mana volume will be doubled.
The two little minks used to have 250,000 health, but now they have 500,000 after being promoted. In other words, they don't need to go out of their way to increase their blood volume in the future. After they are promoted to level six, they will directly have 1 million blood volume. Compared with humans who have to find ways to increase blood volume, it is much more convenient.
But then again, Wang Tao still doesn't understand how mutant beasts evolve. They evolve differently every time. If they cannot grasp the accurate laws of evolution, it will not be easy for them to advance to the sixth level...
Jiji——
The two little martens were very excited. They wanted to show Wang Tao their current strength.
Wang Tao waved his hand and refused.
"Forget it for today. The space underground here is limited and there are many ordinary people. If you mess around, you might kill someone else. Just wait for tomorrow. If you meet the enemy tomorrow, I will give you a chance to show off."
Jiji~
"Okay, then I'll go to bed first. See you tomorrow."
Wang Tao waved his hand and lay on the bed.
Although the two minks were very excited, they did not run around. They lay obediently near Wang Tao's pillow and used them as scarves for Wang Tao.
When Wang Tao woke up the next day, Zhao Yaru and others were already waiting outside.
Many of them were so excited that they didn't fall asleep at night, but they were all awakened people. Even if they were injured, their physical fitness was very strong, so they would not be sleepy.
"Master Priest, I have prepared breakfast for you..."
After Wang Tao opened the door, Zhao Yaru personally brought a dinner plate. On top are millet porridge, meat buns, and even fried dough sticks. And they also specially prepared some meat bones for Lightning.
Seeing two very cute little guys, one blue and one red, on Wang Tao's shoulders, Zhao Yaru and others were very curious, but they didn't ask any more questions. Just treat it as a little pet that Wang Tao carries with him.
The two little minks may have been with Wang Tao for a long time, and hiding their aura is something they can easily do. Zhao Yaru and the others didn't realize that these were actually two fifth-level lords.
"Huh? The food is good!"
Wang Tao was surprised when he saw the breakfast brought by Zhao Yaru.
This kind of breakfast may not seem simple, but it is not available in the Silver Snake Base with a population of 300,000 to 400,000 people. Being able to eat this in the Zizhu Base means that you are living well!
"Ahem...the stocks of these things are running out. These are all emergency..."
Zhao Yaru whispered sheepishly.
After all, this was Wang Tao's first meal at their place, and he had to leave a good impression on Wang Tao, so he brought emergency food. Under normal circumstances, their food is much worse than this.
"That's it..."
Wang Tao nodded, didn't say much, and quickly finished the breakfast. Then Wang Tao waved his hand and said:
"Let's go to the granary and take a look."
"yes!"
Not many people went out with Wang Tao this time, only Zhao Yaru and three others. After all, many people were seriously injured yesterday.
Leaving the gate of Zizhu Base, Wang Tao whistled. Not long after, the huge golden eagle flew above everyone.
Although this was not the first time he saw the golden eagle, Zhao Yaru still felt very shocked. Whether it was the huge size of the golden eagle or the aura of a fifth-level lord exuding from it, it was enough to shock people.
"Where did you rest last night?"
Wang Tao took out a large amount of nutrient solution and fed it to the golden eagle.
"Chirp~"
The golden eagle said that it was near the Awakening Tree, and it wanted to prevent other things from destroying the Awakening Tree.
"Well done!"
Wang Tao smiled and touched the golden eagle's big head, and then led a few people to jump on the golden eagle's back. Let it fly towards the location of the underground granary.
After a while, the destination was reached.
"It's so fast..."
Zhao Yaru and others couldn't help but sigh.
In order to come to this place before, due to the existence of giant zombies, they spent several hours before reaching it. But now you can get there in a minute or two by taking the Golden Eagle. There is no comparison between the two!
"It's right there, but I don't know if there is any danger around..."
Zhao Yaru pointed to a house below that was almost covered by heavy snow.
Judging from the previous news, the entrance to the underground granary is inside this house.
Wang Tao saw no danger for the time being, so he let the golden eagle land.
The golden eagle's flapping wings when it landed just blew the snow nearby, revealing the house.
"I heard from the former leader that this is a relatively secretive granary. When the apocalypse broke out, many people didn't know about it, so there may be food in it now..."
Zhao Yaru explained in a low voice.
"Yeah. It does look ordinary. Who would have thought that there is a granary inside."
Wang Tao scanned it with his mental power and found no other creatures around. So he took Zhao Yaru and others in.
The layout inside is also very ordinary, just like an ordinary office space. But there is a locked basement.
The basement door is very large and thick, and obviously cannot be opened by normal means without a key. So Wang Tao directly used [Scorching Eyes].
Sizzling——
Two high-temperature rays shot out from Wang Tao's eyes, like a cutting machine, and quickly cut off the door lock.
"So strong!"
Zhao Yaru and others thought secretly.
Although they can break through this door with their current strength, they will definitely not be able to do so easily like Wang Tao. Moreover, Wang Tao's laser eye looks so powerful. They feel that if they face this kind of ray, they may not be able to hold on for even one second...
"No one seems to have been here. There might be food down there."
Wang Tao opened the door and walked in directly.
Everyone quickly followed.
It was pitch dark below. Except for Wang Tao, everyone else immediately took out their flashlights. Then they saw the neatly stacked sacks in the distance.
"It's food!"
Seeing this scene, everyone exclaimed in low voices.
Although they thought there was a high probability that there would be food here, they still felt a little uneasy since they hadn't seen it in person. Now that they saw so much food with their own eyes, Zhao Yaru and others cried with joy.
Wang Tao scanned it with his mental power and found that the contents of the sack were indeed grain. There are wheat, corn, rice, etc. And the food looks pretty good, not as bad as Wang Tao thought.
"This much food should be enough to feed the people of your Zizhu base for a while."
Wang Tao looked at the food and said.
"Enough, absolutely enough!"
Zhao Yaru nodded quickly.
According to the former leader, there are 3,000 tons of grain in this granary. Although this is not a large granary during the Chinese New Year, these 3,000 tons of grain are enough to feed 40,000 people for a year. And they only have 10,000 people, which means... enough to feed them for three or four years!
With this food, they won't have to worry about food for a long time!
"That's enough. Let's transport the food back now. Let Xiao Jin transport it quickly."
Wang Tao said again.
I don’t know how long it will take for Zhao Yaru and the others to transport so much food back. It would be faster to have Xiaojin deliver it.
thump--
Zhao Yaru and the others seemed to have agreed upon it, and they immediately saluted Wang Tao and thanked her with tears in their eyes. After all, Wang Tao saved the lives of more than 10,000 people.
"Okay, okay, let's get up and move the goods."
Wang Tao could also understand their mood and waved them to work quickly.
"yes!"
The group immediately started working with great interest.
They are all awakened people, and their physical fitness is certainly not to mention. Carrying these grains is naturally a piece of cake. But compared with Wang Tao, they were still too weak - the cloak behind Wang Tao quickly grew in size without wind, directly wrapping countless sacks.
"Good guy... Even if he is strong, can he be suppressed even if he moves something..."
Zhao Yaru and others sighed.
In fact, Wang Tao still feels that it is a little too slow. If the granary is not well preserved and can be used as a temporary base in the future, Wang Tao would like to just knock down the house and let the golden eagle carry it... But he is not slow at all. That’s it.
After spending some time, Wang Tao put fifty tons of grain on the golden eagle's back. This weight would somehow affect the golden eagle's speed and flexibility. No more would be enough. To transport all this food back would require more than 60 golden eagle flights. Although it seems troublesome, the distance is very close and it is not a problem for the golden eagle.
Before noon, all three thousand tons of grain had been delivered to the gate of Zizhu base.
The entire Zizhu base was mobilized. Under the command of Zhao Yaru and others, they excitedly moved food into the base. Zhao Yaru told them that these grains were brought to them by an adult named "Wang Tao", who was the owner of the golden eagle and the senior priest of their Twilight Church. Naturally, they were extremely grateful to Wang Tao and deeply Remember this name.
In fact, Zhao Yaru originally wanted Wang Tao to be the bishop of their Twilight Church. Anyway, it was determined that the previous bishop was a cult and they were the orthodox, so there was nothing wrong with letting Wang Tao be the bishop.
But I was rejected by Wang Tao because Wang Tao didn’t know the bishop very well yet. In order to avoid alerting others, I thought it would be better to keep a low profile. Otherwise, if the bishop knew that someone was trying to take his position, there might be some changes.
Zhao Yaru naturally understood this truth, so he continued to call Wang Tao a priest, but in their hearts, Wang Tao was already their bishop—no, higher than the status of a bishop, and even the same as the "Twilight" they believed in. level, after all, Wang Tao is now the "blessing of dusk"...
The air-raid shelter where the Zizhu base is located is very large, and there are many places to store food in it. It is no problem to put so much food in it.
Seeing that Zhao Yaru and the others were busy, Wang Tao patted Xiao Jin's head.
"Go and see our awakening fruit tree. It should be mature soon."
Chirp~
The golden eagle flapped its wings, turned around and flew away.
"Ah? Sir is gone?"
Seeing Wang Tao leave, Zhao Yaru and others suddenly felt a little disappointed. They hadn't thanked Wang Tao properly yet. And didn't Wang Tao say that he could be contacted in the future, but he didn't say how to contact him...
On the other side, the golden eagle quickly flew to Wuyang City. The huge awakening fruit tree was very conspicuous in the wind and snow, and some golden fruits were looming among the leaves. Obviously, the awakening fruit is almost ripe.
However, Wang Tao's eyes were not on the awakening fruit tree, but on an abandoned high-rise building. On this tall building, there is a huge, rotten... mutated mouse!
[HP: 500000/500000]
[Blue amount: 200000/200000]
[Level: Level 5·Lord]
[Impurities in the body: 96%]
[Awakening: Tenacity]
[Tenacity: All basic attributes are improved, and strength and defense are greatly improved]
When Wang Tao first looked at it, he thought it was a zombie rat, but he didn't expect it to be a mutated beast.
However, the impurities in its body have reached 96%, which means that it may turn into a zombie at any time, and it is understandable that its body will start to rot.
A fifth-level lord, Wang Tao would no longer drop any extra loot if he killed it. In addition, the two little minks in his pocket always wanted to show off, so Wang Tao gave this opportunity to them.
"Okay, you two come on."
The arrival of the golden eagle naturally made the mutant mouse very vigilant, but what the mutant mouse didn't expect was that two small things suddenly flew out from the back of the golden eagle and landed in front of it.
Um? Are these two little things trying to kill me?
Looking at the two cute little minks, the mutant mouse felt like he was looking down on him. It might not be able to defeat the golden eagle, but it couldn't defeat these two little guys?
Then, Xiao Bing sprayed a ball of ice mist at it.
Hiss——
The mutated mouse didn't even react, it was instantly frozen and unable to move.
Then the little fire breathed flames at it again.
Click——
【-500000】
【0/500000】
The mutant mouse's blood volume of 500,000 was instantly cleared.
"...fuck you, bull!"
