Chapter 260： Night Stalker

Chapter 260 Night Demon Type I

The reason why the fourth level is so much stronger than the third level is because there is one more awakening. Wang Tao doesn't know much about this awakening now, and can only understand it through a few words in the introduction.

There is no doubt that the strength after awakening is very strong, but the awakening is also very difficult. Especially the last requirement of hidden attributes, it is estimated that most people will get stuck here.

But for Wang Tao, hiding abilities is not a problem, after all, he has three!

He has different abilities now. All he needs to do is add 10 to the remaining two abilities, and then use the promotion core to upgrade to the fourth level.

The only problem now is how to obtain the fourth-order crystal nucleus. After all... the fourth-level lord zombies are too strong! But there are no fourth-level elite zombies to be seen...

Speaking of superpower upgrades...Wang Tao looked at the gains from this trip.

Although this time it was very dangerous, and almost everything was revealed there, dangers and opportunities coexisted—he also gained a lot!

Let’s not talk about the third-level lord and the fourth-level lord night demon zombie, but there are many other zombies killed and zombies killed by charges on the road.

Everyone’s blood volume has been increased to the third-level upper limit of 100,000! Including Nie Siyan, who has the least health, she also has 100,000 health.

At present, only Lightning still has 4999 health, but it is not clear yet how to improve it, we can only talk about it later.

Then there are crystal nuclei, and a lot of various first-order, second-order and even third-order crystal nuclei have been obtained. Many of them are available to everyone.

And what surprised Wang Tao was that he got another [Speed] crystal core!

He already had two of them, and with this one, he can synthesize an epic crystal core!

Wang Tao just wanted to combine his [Iron Wall] and [Extreme Speed], and now he has the chance.

Wang Tao directly synthesized these three ultra-fast crystal nuclei without saying a word.

Then skillfully began to extract [Comprehension] and fuse [Extreme Speed]. Then use two superpowers to synthesize it.

After a while, the synthesis was successful!

【Third-level superpower·Iron wall】

【Iron Wall: During the duration, it can enhance defense, running speed, attack speed, spirit, physique, shooting and slowly recover certain injuries (side effects: none)】

The name remains the same, but there is one more entry.

At this point, Wang Tao’s copper wall ability has been synthesized to the upper limit, which means that this ability can be upgraded!

The all-powerful crystal cores in his hand were originally not enough, but this time he got a bunch of crystal nuclei, including many all-powerful crystal nuclei.

Wang Tao immediately began to fuse the all-powerful crystal core.

After spending some time, Wang Tao’s Iron Wall ability was successful +10!

Wang Tao now only has the last one [Integration and Comprehension] that is +1, and the other three abilities are all +10. And this [Integration] has already synthesized [Air Bullet] once, so Wang Tao still lacks two active-attack crystal nuclei.

As long as these two kinds of crystal cores are brought together, Wang Tao's four abilities will be +10, and he can try to fuse and promote the core.

Wang Tao may not fuse the impurity-free fourth-level promotion core this time. After all, it is too difficult to obtain fourth-order crystal nuclei. If you want to be free of impurities, you have to use three crystal nuclei to synthesize it. His four abilities require 12 promotion cores. How many level 4 zombies do you have to kill to get them?

Anyway, Wang Tao still has the remaining three bottles of cleaning potion in his hand. Each bottle can remove 1% of the impurities in the body. Just remove the impurities later...

Wang Tao looked at the biggest gain this time, what was exploded by the fourth-order lord night demon!

The special energy was given to 25,000, which was a little more than what the third-level lord Night Demon gave, but not much more. Mainly other trophies—

This level 4 night devil dropped a total of 5 loot packages, and it also dropped 4 things on itself! An absolute blast.

The first thing is naturally the crystal core in its head - yes, there is actually a crystal core in the head of this fourth-level lord Night Demon! Other night demons, such as the third-level lords, don't have crystal cores... maybe they are the fourth level.

【Fourth-order crystal nucleus·Dali】

【Quality: Excellent (60%)】

【Purity: 35% (Side Effect: Strength is directly proportional to body size, if body size is insufficient, strength will increase negatively)】

【Dali: Passive ability, greatly increased strength】

It turned out to be a powerful crystal core, which surprised Wang Tao. Because the crystal nuclei it explodes from the Night Demon are of three fixed types: [HP increase], [Energy increase] and [Physique increase]. This is the first time I see other crystal nuclei.

However, this fourth-level lord Night Demon already has a crystal core in his head, so it is not surprising that other crystal nuclei appear... This may be the difference between the third-level and the fourth-level.

And seeing this powerful crystal core, Wang Tao felt that he might have taken advantage. Because the side effect of this crystal nucleus is that "strength is directly proportional to body size." And the size of this fourth-level lord Night Demon is not too big, so the effect of this major improvement is probably not very big...

Wang Tao looked at the second thing, which was the claws of the black-skinned night devil.

【Obtain: Level 4·Night Devil's Claw*2】

【Level 4·Night Devil's Claw: Production Materials】

Compared with the previous Night Devil's Claw, it has the prefix "Level 4". The previous Night Devil's Claw did not display the level. This should be a relatively cherished material.

The third thing is a glass bead-like thing, which fell out from the head of the black-skinned night devil together with the crystal core.

【Obtain: Awakening Energy Bead*1】

【Awakening Energy Bead: After using it, you can get 100 Awakening Energy】

【Awakening Energy: The energy needed to release awakening and improve the level of awakening】

“Awakening energy?”

Wang Tao seemed to understand it after reading the explanation.

“Awakening also has levels, just like the level of superpowers? The level of superpowers needs to be improved by fusing crystal nuclei, and the level of awakening needs to be improved by fusing awakening energy beads? And releasing awakening also consumes awakening energy..."

Wang Tao tried it. He can't use this awakening energy bead now. It should be because he has not awakened.

I just don’t know what the explosion rate of this awakening energy bead is. If every fourth-level zombie can explode, that would be pretty good. It would be uncomfortable if you were lucky enough to explode.

The fourth thing is something that looks like a **** heart—actually, this is the heart of the Night Demon, but its name is not called a heart, but called...a weapon!

【Fourth level weapon·Night Devil Type I】

【HP: 10000/10000 (upper limit 100000)】

【Status: Awakenable】

【Amplification: independent attack (weakness: afraid of ultraviolet rays)】

【Fitness: 0%】

【Independent Attack: Can follow the master's orders to attack alone, but is afraid of ultraviolet rays】

After seeing the properties of this heart, Wang Tao had a question mark in his head.

"What's going on? Is it possible that a night demon can be summoned to fight?"

Wang Tao, who was very curious, immediately tried to wake him up.

He soon felt a faint consciousness, but when he connected with this consciousness, he could not awaken it because the fit was not enough.

"Almost forgot!"

Wang Tao slapped his forehead, and then quickly took out the crystal core to increase the fit of this [Night Demon Type I].

Then Wang Tao discovered, good guy, this thing consumes so many crystal cores!

For third-level weapons like entangled tree roots, one third-level crystal core can restore the compatibility to full. But for the fourth-level weapon [Night Demon Type I], a third-level crystal core can only restore 10% of the fit, a second-level crystal core can restore 1% of the fit, and the first-level crystal core... basically It doesn't work.

So this means that only one fourth-order crystal core can restore 100% at once?

 Wang Tao didn’t have any fourth-order crystal cores in his hand, so it was naturally impossible to test it here, so he used second-order and third-order crystal cores to maximize the compatibility of this [Night Demon Type I]. Although it hurts, you still have to use it at this time.

Then Wang Tao tried to wake up again.

brush!

 I saw the heart in Wang Tao's hand suddenly surging like water, and then combined into a black night devil more than two meters tall in front of Wang Tao!

ifies

This is really a night demon!

Jiang Shixue and Lightning next to him were startled and immediately looked at the night demon warily. This is different from the night devil Wang Tao has seen before. It is a pure black night devil. The black-skinned night devil he killed before only had black bone armor and other parts were still blood. Red.

So it can be distinguished at once.

But no matter how you tell the difference, this is still a night devil! It still looks a little scary. Especially Lightning, all the hairs on his body exploded.

Wang Tao felt the faint consciousness and waved.

Then the night devil immediately squatted down, got down on all fours, and put its head in front of Wang Tao like a puppy.

Wang Tao reached out and touched it, and it felt very bad.

Lightning:?

Lightning tilted its head, and there was suddenly confusion in its small eyes.

When Wang Tao found out, he burst out laughing. He immediately squatted down, hugged Lightning, and rubbed its head. After ravaging it hard, he let it go. Lightning suddenly wagged its tail crazily, knowing that its master was not tired of the old.

Jiang Shixue also knew that this was something made by Wang Tao, and she touched it curiously.

“Brother, this is...”

Looking at the motionless Night Demon squatting in front of Wang Tao, Jiang Shixue looked confused.

"This is a fourth-level weapon, similar to my entangled tree roots and iron tree vines..."

Wang Tao explained while asking the night demon to perform various actions.

After studying it for a while, Wang Tao roughly figured out what this thing was about.

This [Night Demon Type I] is different from his entangled tree roots. [Night Demon Type I] can only be fought independently and cannot be worn on the body. A bit like iron tree vines.

However, the iron tree vines need Wang Tao as a carrier, and they are usually on Wang Tao's wrist. The Night Demon doesn't need it, it can be used directly without Wang Tao.

If Wang Tao wants to use it, he only needs to give a command in his mind, but it is not very flexible to use.

Because the steps to control it are relatively complicated, they are roughly as follows: Wang Tao first thinks of what to do, then issues an order, Night Demon accepts the order, and finally executes the order. Instead of whatever Wang Tao thinks, the other party can do it.

There is a certain delay in this process.

When working with it, it feels worse than working with Jiang Shixue. Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue are very familiar with each other. Basically, with one movement and one look, both parties know what to do.

This night demon is a bit dull. Although it has a very weak consciousness, this consciousness is not enough for it to make self-judgment.

 Compare it with lightning. If Wang Tao lets lightning move freely, lightning may play in various ways and stick to Wang Tao. But if there is a sudden danger, Lightning will definitely be alert immediately and join the battle. If it is found that it cannot be defeated, Lightning Zetsu may also hide. If Wang Tao is found to be in danger, Lightning will probably risk his life to save Wang Tao... Lightning has his own IQ and judgment.

This [Night Demon Type I] is different, it has no IQ and no judgment of its own. Wang Tao let it move freely, and it just stood there blankly. Even if it encounters danger, it will not take the initiative to attack because Wang Tao did not give an order to attack. If Wang Tao asks it to attack, it will keep attacking and will not run or stop...

Of course, this refers to a relatively abstract command, and Wang Tao can also give it specific commands. The more specific a command is, the better it is executed.

For example, if Wang Tao asks him to squat there and not move, then it will be as motionless as a sculpture. Wang Tao asked him to walk a few steps and how many centimeters each step took, and it was almost exactly the same - even lightning couldn't do these.

So Wang Tao feels that this [Night Demon Type I] is very dull, not quite like an intelligent life, but more like a robot that can only execute orders!

This can be considered to have advantages and disadvantages. Needless to say, the disadvantage is that it is too rigid. If you don't control it specifically, it may not be able to show its strength.

The advantage is that it should not rebel. After all, it has no intelligence and judgment, and it only listens to Wang Tao's orders, and Jiang Shixue cannot order it.

As for why it only listened to Wang Tao, Wang Tao estimated that it was because he woke up [Night Demon Type I].

Then Wang Tao did an experiment. He made [Night Demon Type I] change back to the heart, and then put the heart back into the space backpack.

Once entering the space backpack, the state of [Night Demon Type I] becomes "sleeping". Wang Tao asked Jiang Shixue to wake up [Night Demon Type I]. The result was just as Wang Tao thought, it no longer listened to Wang Tao, but only listened to Jiang Shixue!

This is quite interesting and can be controlled by others.

But Wang Tao has a space backpack. If someone else doesn't have a space backpack, how can he make it sleep...Wang Tao doesn't know. He speculated that maybe it had something to do with time? For example, if you don't use it for a long time, it slowly falls into a deep sleep?

Then Wang Tao tested whether [Night Demon Type I] would be mind-controlled.

Jiang Shixue’s hidden ability [Eye of Contract] is that she can control other creatures to a certain extent, but she has to control creatures that are much weaker than her. Its control over [Night Demon Type I] is completely ineffective.

Wang Tao also has abilities such as mental interference and mental shock, but they are all ineffective.

 He ​​talked with Jiang Shixue and found that it was not that they couldn't control it, but that they didn't have the option to control it - this night demon seemed to have no mental power!

The simple understanding is that no matter how smart you are and how eloquent you are, as long as you want to deceive it, you will not be able to succeed! This is not because it is very smart, but because it has no brain at all!

This is also a benefit, at least you don’t have to worry about being controlled by others!

Finally, and most importantly, what is the strength of this [Night Demon Type I].

Wang Tao’s controller [Night Demon Type I] and Jiang Shixue made a little gesture.

Then Wang Tao came to the conclusion—very strong!

That speed, that defense, that attack, it’s simply amazing!

However, there are two conditions for whether [Night Demon Type I] can be fully utilized.

The first condition is that Wang Tao, the person who controls [Night Demon Type I], must control it well.

Wang Tao's control is the lower limit of this [Night Demon Type I]. If Wang Tao doesn't control it well, it will basically be miserable.

Wang Tao is also slowly exploring at present, and he feels that he still has a lot of room for improvement.

The second condition is to increase the blood volume of [Night Demon Type I].

This is the same as most humans, the more blood, the stronger the strength.

It currently only has 10,000 health, and the upper limit is 100,000. Only when it is full of health can it exert its maximum ability.

But Wang Tao tried it and wanted to increase its blood volume, but it cost too much!

A third-order crystal core can only increase his HP limit by 100! The second-order crystal core increases the upper limit of blood volume by 10! And the first-order crystal core... is completely useless.

That is to say, a fourth-order crystal core can at most increase its HP limit by 1,000.

At that time, when he increased the health of [Twining Tree Roots], the consumption was outrageous.

But [Night Demon Type I] is 10 times more expensive than [Wrapping Roots]!

Wang Tao doesn’t have a few fourth-order crystal cores in his hand, so it’s naturally impossible to use them here.

And Wang Tao is reluctant to use the third-order crystal core. After all, the third-order crystal core is the main core, and Wang Tao doesn’t have too many in his hands.

So Wang Tao did not improve it much, and temporarily got 11100 HP. To increase the blood volume by 1100, Wang Tao used 10 third-order crystal nuclei and 10 second-order crystal nuclei. The price is too high...

The current health of more than 10,000 is indeed a bit low, but its defense is strong. Wang Tao felt that under his control, it should be considered half a fourth level, right? Even if there is not half, even if there is one third, Wang Tao will be very satisfied.

Next time he encounters a fourth-level zombie, Wang Tao thinks he can give this [Night Demon Type I] a try, maybe it will have a miraculous effect!

However, it also has a weakness of being afraid of ultraviolet rays, so you have to pay attention to it if you use it in the future...

Wang Tao studied [Night Demon Type I] for a long time, and then made it change into the shape of a heart again.

Wang Tao feels that it would be easy for others to misunderstand him if he kept his appearance as a night devil. After other people have seen it, if a night devil enters the base and others think it is it, it will be a story of the boy who cried wolf. Although this possibility is small, it must be guarded against.

After [Night Demon Type I] turns into a heart, Wang Tao gives a command and it can instantly transform into a Night Demon, and the speed is also very fast.

But there is a small problem, that is, it can only be turned into a big heart and cannot be wrapped around Wang Tao's wrist like tree roots and iron tree vines, so it is not very convenient to carry.

Wang Tao put it on the table. Its heart would not beat, just like a curious sculpture. Not to mention, [Night Stalker Type I] still feels like a doomsday wasteland when used as a decoration.

…

After Wang Tao read the four items exploded by the fourth-level lord Night Demon, he looked at its five loot packages.

The first package is still a crystal core gift package, which contains 5 crystal cores. But the types of these crystal nuclei are different from what Wang Tao imagined.
