Chapter 639: Progressive Promotion to Level 6
After being promoted to the sixth level, they naturally had to get familiar with their current strength first. Wang Tao accompanied them to test for a while.
It can only be said that after the sixth level, it is different. In the past, they could only take one move from Wang Tao, but now... they can finally take two or three moves.
"What a pervert!"
Xiang Hongbin sighed. This "pervert" was not referring to himself, but Wang Tao.
He was already at the same level as Wang Tao, but he was still not Wang Tao's opponent, and even said that he was still far behind!
Going up to the seventh level, could it be that he had to wait until the seventh level to have the possibility of defeating Wang Tao?
Of course, he was not entangled in whether he could defeat Wang Tao, he just sighed a little about Wang Tao's "perversion".
"Indeed!"
Everyone nodded at the same time.
Before sparring with Wang Tao, because they were relatively weak, Wang Tao did not dare to use his full strength. And now, they finally felt Wang Tao's true strength, and they didn't know what to say except pervert.
"Come on!"
Wang Tao smiled and patted Xiang Hongbin on the shoulder.
...
The next day.
Wang Tao took the people of the Spark Club and rode the Golden Eagle to the crack closest to the Changhe Base.
Wang Tao had already told them that "there was sea water and sea beasts in the crack", so everyone was naturally curious and followed Wang Tao to see if there was a chance to kill the sea beast.
This crack was relatively close to the Changhe Base, and Cheng Yiyi also said that these sea beasts could go ashore. So Wang Tao wanted to try to eliminate the threat of this sea beast before going out next time.
At this time, the area around the crack had been listed as a restricted area, with no humans, only some zombies wandering around.
The appearance of the Golden Eagle instantly attracted the attention of many zombies.
Seeing these zombies, Wang Tao suddenly had an idea. He used his mental power to control the ordinary zombies and let them come to the crack to see if he could attract the sea beast out.
But unfortunately, Wang Tao controlled it for a long time, but there was not even a shadow in the water.
Obviously, sea beasts should not eat zombies. After all, they also have impurities in their bodies. If the impurities in their bodies are too high, they will die like humans.
So after thinking about it, Wang Tao decided to use himself as bait again to see if he could lure the sea beast out.
He asked the golden eagle to lower the altitude as much as possible and fly over the crack.
This altitude would definitely allow the previous sea beast to swallow it in one bite.
However, the golden eagle reacted quickly, and Wang Tao also used his mental power to the fullest. As long as there was any motivation, they would be able to discover and react in the first time.
But it was not known whether the sea beast had left, was afraid, or was more patient. The golden eagle flew in the sky for a whole morning, and there was no movement in the water.
Wang Tao felt that the sea beast should not have left yet. After all, it was not injured at the time, so it might be hiding somewhere.
But if it didn't come out, Wang Tao would have no choice. It was impossible to go into the water to find it. The water was the home ground of the sea beast. Although Wang Tao could dive, his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, and it would be too unwise to go into the water.
But from this point of view, there might be only one sea beast in this crack. If there were other sea beasts, they should have come out by now. This is also good news...
"I don't know how these sea beasts distinguish between humans and zombies. Vision? Taste? Mental power? If it's not the kind of range-type mental power detection, I think we can fish it up?"
At this time, Xiang Hongbin suddenly spoke.
"Hmm? What do you mean..."
"Since it doesn't eat zombies, but only humans. Then they should eat pork, right? Pork has no impurities. Don't we raise a lot of mutant pigs in our base..."
Xiang Hongbin's eyes lit up.
He has always liked fishing, but unfortunately he didn't have time before. And now, it seems that there is a chance to fish.
"It seems feasible, then let's go back and study it!"
After confirming again that the sea beast would not appear, Wang Tao and his party flew back to the base.
They came to the city hall and discussed with others.
If you want to fish out the sea beast, the bait is easy to make, and getting some pork should be enough. If that doesn't work, then get a few live pigs. If the sea beast is still there, I don't believe it won't be fooled.
As for Wang Tao and his party, they will hide first, so as not to be discovered by the sea beast and not be fooled. Although according to Cheng Yiyi, the intelligence of sea beasts is not very strong, it is always right to be more cautious.
So now there is only one problem left, what hook can be used to hook the sea beast. It is not necessary to hook it completely, as long as the sea beast is not allowed to return to the sea, even if this time is relatively short, Wang Tao is confident that he can kill it.
Xiang Hongbin and his friends are now all sixth-level awakeners, and their strength is incomparable. So many people attack at the same time, and they can definitely kill this sea beast in a short time. After all, it is only a sixth-level disaster level.
After some discussion, the committee formulated a "fishing plan", which was finally approved by Wang Tao.
The content of the plan is not complicated. It is similar to what Xiang Hongbin said before, that is, to use pork to lure out the sea beast first, and Wang Tao and others will work together to kill it.
As for controlling the sea beast while luring it out, there is no other way at present, and it can only be controlled by using superpowers or awakening.
However, it is very difficult to control a sixth-level disaster level, because the control ability suppresses the level very obviously.
For example, if a fifth-level human tries hard, it is possible to defeat a sixth-level zombie. But it is difficult for a fifth-level person to control a sixth-level zombie. Even if he can control it, it will only last for one or two seconds at most.
Among Wang Tao and his group, only Wang Tao, Jiang Shixue, Han Rui and Xiao Bing have control ability.
Jiang Shixue's control ability is [Marionette]. This awakening is very strong and can directly control the opponent. But Jiang Shixue is only at the sixth-level lord level, and the opponent is at the sixth-level disaster level. Under the condition of level suppression, the control time will be very short.
In daily battles, Jiang Shixue's control time is enough. But the sea beast is different. It can directly drill into the water to escape. So it must be killed within the control time, otherwise it will not be killed after entering the water.
Han Rui's [Wind Chain] awakening is also very good, controlling the wind element and binding the target like an iron chain. Although it cannot control the opponent's actions, it can make the opponent unable to move. This ability just fits the current situation. Wang Tao does not need to control the sea beast, as long as it cannot escape.
Xiao Bing's control ability is [Frost Shot], which can freeze the target directly. Theoretically, as long as Xiao Bing keeps using awakening, he can always control the opponent, but the premise is that the opponent's level is not too high. Xiao Bing is currently only level 5, which is a bit different from the level 6 disaster level. It is estimated that it is a bit difficult to control it.
Wang Tao's control ability is somewhat similar to Jiang Shixue's, both of which are mental control. However, Wang Tao's control ability is developed through [mental development], and he is not specialized in this. Moreover, those who understand mental abilities know that if they cannot be controlled, they may be backfired. Even if they are controlled, Wang Tao is not sure how long they can control...
As for the things in Wang Tao's hands before, such as slime grenades, those things can only control low-level creatures, and mid-level creatures cannot be controlled.
Therefore, Wang Tao feels that it is not very safe to rely on the control of these people alone.
Wang Tao's final decision is to recruit people who can control abilities in Changhe Base and let them go together!
The control ability is more obviously suppressed by the level, and it is not easy to succeed. Even if the control is successful, the time will be very short. But as long as there are more people under control, it will always work, and it will also extend the control time.
After such a long period of development, there are now many psychics and awakeners in Changhe Base. Although there are relatively few people who can control abilities, that is also relative. If these people are really gathered together, it is not a small number.
The base has provided them with so many resources, it is time for them to return the favor.
Of course, Wang Tao will try his best to ensure their safety and will not let them die. After all, they are the future of Changhe Base.
With so many people together, they should be able to control the sea beast for some time. Wang Tao will not need too long to kill the sea beast!
After the decision was finalized, the City Hall immediately notified it.
This "fishing plan" is a mandatory task issued by the City Hall, and those who meet the conditions must go.
This is one of the few mandatory tasks since the establishment of the base. The previous two mandatory tasks all appeared when the base encountered a survival crisis when it was just established.
However, since the base was just built at that time, there was no reward for mandatory tasks.
But now it is different. Although this task is mandatory, the reward is very generous.
In addition, the notice clearly stated that this mission was related to the survival crisis of Changhe Base. If the sixth-level disaster-level sea beast lurking outside was not eliminated, Changhe Base would not be able to get water. Killing the sea beast is to protect their water resources!
Therefore, the combatants in the base were very enthusiastic, and even some people who did not meet the conditions wanted to join the battle.
The City Hall began a strict screening. This mission was still dangerous. After all, those control abilities could not be effective from too far away. They had to be at a certain distance from the target. Therefore, there could be no unqualified people, otherwise it would not help Wang Tao, but would hinder Wang Tao.
One day later, the City Hall finally selected the people.
The reason why it took a day was not because the City Hall was inefficient, but because it needed to wait for some people to wake up, such as Cheng Yiyi.
Cheng Yiyi had taken Wang Tao's crystal core to be promoted before, and after a day, she finally became a sixth-level awakener!
Wang Tao had taken out a lot of crystal cores before and sold them to the City Hall. Not only Cheng Yiyi, but also others were being promoted and awakened.
After more than a day, they all woke up. These are also combat forces, so naturally they have to wait for them.
Now the overall strength of Changhe Base has reached a new level compared to before!
It can be said that Changhe Base has never been so strong.
This also greatly boosted the confidence of the people in the base. Isn't it just a sixth-level disaster level? With so many people going together, they will definitely be able to take it down!
However, to be on the safe side, they did not set off immediately, but trained in the base for another three days.
Three days later, everything was ready. Wang Tao left Changhe Base with more than a thousand people.
The Golden Eagle could not take so many people at a time, so most of them drove. There were only people from the Spark Club, the City Hall, the Committee, and several major legions on the Golden Eagle.
"It's been a long time since I took such a large-scale action. This reminds me of the military exercise before the end of the world..."
The commander of the Third Legion wiped the hot sweat from his forehead and sighed.
"Yes!"
The other legion commanders also nodded.
Although there are only a thousand people this time, which is incomparable to the number of people in some large-scale military exercises, the strength of these one thousand people is not comparable to that of ordinary humans. They all start at the lowest level of the fourth level, and there are more than a dozen sixth-level awakeners leading the team. The main force in the battle is Wang Tao, the base's top master... With such a strong strength, just looking at the data on paper makes people's hearts beat! They couldn't even imagine the real battle scene.
Now they are not worried about whether they can kill this sixth-level disaster-as long as they can lure it out, it will die. There is no doubt about this.
What they are worried about now is that with so many people taking action at the same time, they must not hit one of their own.
After all, these people are not soldiers and cannot enforce orders and prohibitions. I had trained for three days before, but it was obviously impossible to reach the military level in just three days.
Fortunately, there are quite a few healing staff in the base, and they all followed this time. With them here, as long as the injury is not fatal, they can be rescued...
"It's just a little too hot outside. The temperature... is already fifty degrees! Wipe it!"
Someone looked at the thermometer and suddenly cursed secretly.
The temperature inside the barrier was only twenty-five or six degrees, and when it suddenly came out, it was as if it was following a steamer.
It would be fine if it was just this hot, but the temperature keeps rising. Looking at this situation, it is not impossible if it rises to 80 or 100 degrees in the future. Then this human being will have no way to live at all!
However, the top priority is to deal with this sea beast, and other matters are postponed for the time being.
While everyone was discussing, the cracks came into view.
Wang Tao did not let the golden eagle continue to fly forward, but directed the people on the ground to prepare for battle. When they all found their respective positions according to the previous training method and were ready to take action at any time, Wang Tao threw the mutated pig that he had prepared long ago from the back of the golden eagle. There were three steel cables behind it, firmly Tie the pig on the ground.
There were three mutated pigs in total, one was dead; one was not dead, but had wounds on its body that were bleeding; and one was alive and well.
With three different flavors, one of them will attract sea beasts, right?
After just waiting for a while, the water surface remained very calm.
"You're not really leaving, are you?"
Wang Tao frowned.
At this time, he definitely didn't like the sea beast leaving. After all, they had prepared such a big battle. It would be a big loss if they didn't get anything.
At this moment, Wang Tao suddenly discovered that a black shadow appeared under the water.
"Come on, come on, get ready--" Before Wang Tao could say anything, his eyes suddenly widened.
There's something wrong with this underwater shadow!
