Chapter 603 Base Strength Improvement
Wang Tao hadn't been to the Awakening School for a long time, so he took time out to go there today.
It wasn't a big deal, but the number of awakened students officially reached 200 today. The last time the number exceeded 100, Wang Tao was doing research with Qu Shilin at the research institute, so he didn't go. Now there are 200 people, so Wang Tao, the principal, has to show up.
At the door of the principal's office, the dean of teaching Pan Jian was already waiting for Wang Tao with a group of school leaders.
"Hello, Principal Wang!"
"Long time no see!"
Wang Tao nodded with a smile.
"Principal Wang, this is the list of all the awakened people in our school..."
Pan Jian quickly handed over a list.
Wang Tao didn't specifically designate the awakened candidates, but only told them to follow the rules.
The rules of the Awakening School are to judge by contribution. Wang Tao had set a score line before, and those who contribute more than this line will get the opportunity to awaken.
This was originally an incentive for them, but Wang Tao did not expect that these people would be so competitive - now most students have exceeded this line.
However, since awakening requires more resources and the probability is relatively low, it does not mean that you can get the opportunity to awaken after crossing the line, and you still have to queue up.
This is not that the awakening school broke its promise, it is something that cannot be helped. The awakening school is not raising the score line now, which is already a great kindness... The students can understand it, after all, it is awakening.
However, it is different now. The research institute has developed an awakening potion!
These students all have hidden attributes, that is, when using the awakening potion, their probability of awakening success can be increased to 80%!
Since there is such a high success rate now, there is no need to queue up anymore. Let them awaken directly according to the contribution ranking from high to low, so that the overall strength of the base will be greatly improved. Now all we need is the corresponding crystal core and awakening key.
The crystal core city hall will naturally provide it, so don't worry about it.
But the awakening key is relatively more troublesome. This thing requires personally killing lord creatures above level 4. Only some students have awakening keys, and the others don't have them yet.
But this is not a problem for Wang Tao. He has a large number of physical awakening keys stored in his hands.
These keys were originally prepared for Ding Yuqin and others. After all, they have to continue awakening, because the probability of awakening will become lower and lower, failure is inevitable, and more and more keys will be needed.
But now with the awakening potion, they can directly increase the success rate of awakening to 80%! Even if you use advanced awakening keys, the awakening success rate can reach 100%! You can also save a lot of awakening keys.
In addition, Ding Yuqin and others often hunt zombies outside and have saved a lot of keys. So Wang Tao has an endless supply of awakening keys.
Since they can't use them up themselves, they can use them where they should be used, such as the students of the awakening school.
There is no need to hide this thing. The overall strength of the base is strong. After all, Wang Tao doesn't know when those seventh-level lives will appear. The more awakened people there are in the base, the greater the confidence in dealing with seventh-level lives.
So Wang Tao gave these entity awakening keys to the school, and asked them to start awakening students in order according to the contribution ranking.
The result lived up to expectations. As of today, the number of awakened students in the school has officially exceeded 200!
These awakenings are varied, with various attributes, and even a few healing systems!
It has to be said that this is now a veritable awakening school, and the overall strength of the base has also made a huge leap!
And this is not the end, it is just the starting point, and there will be more and more awakeners in the future!
Wang Tao took a quick look at the list, and then said to Pan Jian:
"No problem, let's get started."
"Okay!"
Wang Tao came to the square of the school, and the students were very excited to see Wang Tao. They knew very well that if it weren't for Wang Tao, they would not be able to become third-level mutants, let alone awaken.
Wang Tao is not only the strongest person in Changhe Base, but also the person with the highest status in Changhe Base. At the same time, he and Qu Shilin developed the artifact such as awakening potion... Wang Tao's status in their hearts can be said to be unmatched.
"Good afternoon, Principal Wang!"
Pan Jian made a gesture, and the students immediately greeted him in unison.
"Hello, everyone!"
Wang Tao smiled and waved.
"I'm glad to see that the number of awakened students in our school has exceeded 200... This is the result of your hard work... But awakening is not the end, but a new beginning... You have to keep working hard... Although the heavy snow has stopped and the temperature has risen, the crisis of mankind is far from over..."
Wang Tao encouraged the students and told them to keep working hard. At the end, Wang Tao suddenly broke a big news.
"... You may not know how strong the enemy we are facing is. I have seen the traces of the seventh-level creatures..."
The seventh-level creatures Wang Tao mentioned are naturally those in the summoning altar. Although he has not met the seventh-level creatures face to face, he has communicated through the summoning altar, so he can be regarded as discovering the traces of the other party.
"Hiss..."
And when Wang Tao said this, not only the students. Even Pan Jian and other faculty members were shocked.
Except for Wang Tao, the strongest person in the entire Changhe base is only the fifth level. Among these students, the strongest is only at the fourth level.
But now there are seventh-order creatures! That's a big gap!
If there is only one level difference, you can still win through certain strategies and numbers. But if there is a difference of two levels, it won't work. That's the real strength gap!
If they encounter a seventh-order creature, wouldn't they be dead?
Seeing the shock of the crowd, Wang Tao was not satisfied, but continued:
"Do you think the seventh level is over? No, it's not that simple. The strength gap between the seventh and sixth levels is not just one level. It's similar to the gap between the fourth-order awakener and the third-order psychic... The difficulty of advancing to the seventh level is much higher than awakening..."
"..."
Everyone was shocked again.
They knew very well how big the gap between the fourth-order awakener and the third-order psychic was. After all, they were all promoted to the fourth level not long ago.
Generally speaking, it is absolutely impossible for a third-order psychic to defeat a fourth-order awakener head-on, even if there are more people. The gap between awakening and psychic is too big.
But now Wang Tao told them that a seventh-order creature has appeared! Moreover, it was such a powerful seventh-level creature that they could not defeat even if they became sixth-level awakeners...
Everyone was immediately like being poured with a basin of cold water, and the excitement after awakening was instantly calmed down.
Seeing that the faces of the students were very serious, Wang Tao smiled and said:
"Of course, everyone does not need to be overly anxious. The seventh-level creature has appeared, but it is still far away from our base and cannot come over for a while... You must take advantage of this time to become stronger! The future of Changhe Base depends on you to protect it!"
"Become stronger!"
"Become stronger!"
"..."
These students cannot be allowed to relax, but they cannot be pushed too hard. Wang Tao thinks that the current degree is very good. So Wang Tao did not say too much. Seeing that the students all had a certain sense of urgency and were eager to go out and hunt zombies now, Wang Tao stepped down.
However, after he stepped down, he was surrounded by people again. It was Gu Yun who came.
"You came quite quickly!"
Wang Tao saw it when he was on the stage just now, and it was not surprising.
Gu Yun wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Wang Tao with a little resentment.
"I heard that you know something about the seventh level?"
Wang Tao had never told him about the seventh level. So when he heard Wang Tao say that the gap between the seventh level and the sixth level was similar to that between awakened people and superpowers, he ran over immediately.
"Forgot."
Wang Tao shrugged. He really forgot. Because the awakening potion developed by Qu Shilin was too awesome, he had been testing the awakening potion. After coming out of the laboratory, the sun came out again... So there were too many important things, and he subconsciously forgot about the seventh level.
Seeing that Gu Yun wanted to say something, Wang Tao waved his hand.
"Let's go to the City Hall. Let's have a meeting, and I'll talk about this matter by the way."
"Okay!"
Wang Tao came to the City Hall.
All the committee members, the senior officials of the City Hall, the leaders of the major forces... all those who could come came.
After all, it was news about the seventh level, and it was Wang Tao who broke the news, so they definitely couldn't be absent.
"There are quite a lot of people, so I'll start right away. The gap between the seventh level and the sixth level is similar to the gap between the fourth level awakener and the third level mutant. It is not possible to advance by relying on the crystal core alone. Like awakening, it requires many conditions..."
Wang Tao spoke out all the information about the seventh level that he got this time without reservation. Some data that others could not see directly, Wang Tao explained in his own words.
For example, the 1 million health points were explained as "personal physical fitness reached the peak of the sixth level."
Everyone listened and took notes quietly, and no one spoke until Wang Tao finished speaking. Most people had worried expressions on their faces.
"It is much more difficult to advance to the seventh level than to awaken..."
"Kill creatures above the sixth level lord level to obtain the power of the law, and it is not necessarily available..."
"The six basic attributes must be full to be eligible for advancement..."
"By integrating all the basic attributes, you can comprehend the law domain once... This domain sounds powerful, but it is not necessarily successful. If you fail to comprehend, you may even die!"
"..."
The news was too shocking. If Wang Tao hadn't said it himself, they would never have believed it.
"Wang Tao, how confident are you that you can be promoted to the seventh level now?"
Gu Yun suddenly asked.
Wang Tao spread his hands helplessly, "I have no confidence at all - mainly because I don't know how I comprehended it... When my basic attributes are up to standard, I may get more information, and then we'll see..."
"..."
Seeing that Wang Tao had no confidence in being promoted to the seventh level, everyone's heart sank.
The problem now is not how difficult it is for humans to be promoted to the seventh level, but that there are already seventh-level creatures!
Although Wang Tao said that the seventh-level creature is in the summoning altar. As long as it is not summoned, it can't come out.
But who can guarantee that the zombies outside the city will not be promoted to the seventh level?
From previous experience, the speed of zombies' promotion is much faster than that of humans. Maybe some zombies have been promoted to the seventh level at this time...
However, everyone present has come out of the storm and quickly adjusted their mentality.
"After all, we haven't really seen a seventh-level creature yet, so there's no need to be so pessimistic..."
"Yes, a seventh-level creature shouldn't appear for a while, at least we don't have one here..."
"We'll see what happens next. Now we just need to improve our strength as much as possible. Then even if seventh-level creatures do appear in the future, we won't be completely unable to resist..."
"Next, we have to sprint towards the sixth level! We can't be pushed too far away by Commissioner Wang..."
"..."
After everyone communicated for a while, the meeting was dissolved.
Seeing that Gu Yun still looked unhappy, Wang Tao patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't be too anxious, it's not a big problem. Believe me, I will definitely be able to advance to the seventh level!"
"I have always had confidence in you, but I have little confidence in other people..." Gu Yun smiled bitterly. Then he took a deep breath and quickly adjusted his state. "I don't want to think about the seventh level for now. Please pay attention. If there is any important news, please be sure to inform the base! Now the heavy snow has stopped and the temperature has risen. Next, the base will send people out one after another, I have to be busy with this aspect..."
"no problem."
Wang Tao nodded.
The sun had already set at this time. After Wang Tao returned home, Ding Yuqin and others had just returned.
"Master!"
Xu Quan immediately shouted respectfully.
He had awakened before with the help of Wang Tao, and now he was a serious fourth-level awakener.
"Master!"
When Lin Meng saw Wang Tao, he bowed respectfully, then ran over and jumped on Wang Tao.
After all, she is relatively young, only thirteen years old, and she is still quite attached to her master, Wang Tao.
"Not bad, I'll wake up after dinner later."
Looking at Lin Meng's attributes, Wang Tao smiled and pinched her cheek.
Although Lin Meng has not yet awakened, he is already at the peak of the third level and can awaken at any time. Wang Tao is looking forward to her awakening.
"Thank you, Master!"
After talking with the two young apprentices, I found out that they encountered a very strong group of corpses this time, so they were delayed outside for two days.
"I don't know if it's because the snow has stopped, but there seem to be more zombies outside... We plan to stay outside as much as possible during this period to see if we can hunt more zombies."
Han Rui said to Wang Tao.
"Okay. I'll stay with you these days."
Wang Tao nodded.
He wants everyone to be promoted to the sixth level as soon as possible.
When the weather gets warmer, Wang Tao will make another trip to help Qu Shilin search for the ancestor virus data. Kill some zombies by the way and accumulate more power of law.
The reason why we wait until the weather gets warmer before going out is because when the weather gets warmer, the probability of human survivors coming out for activities is higher, and they might be able to get some useful information.
