Chapter 279 Real Illusion
night.
Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue left the Bauhinia Base.
While jumping off the high wall, Jiang Shixue suddenly whispered:
“Those babies are so cute…”
咚—
The two of them landed on the ground, and the zombies around them immediately rushed over after sensing Wang Tao's aura.
Wang Tao casually smashed the zombies with a shock wave. He turned back and glanced at Jiang Shixue, his green eyes showing no expression.
Jiang Shixue scratched her head in embarrassment.
“Ahem, I mean...”
"It's quite cute." Wang Tao interrupted her, and then said, "Let's go and see if there are any fourth-level zombies."
“Oh~”
There were many zombies outside the base. Wang Tao didn’t want to waste time with them, so he directly used a bottle of concealment potion.
Jiang Shixue's physical condition is special and has the effect of concealing medicine, so she does not need to use it.
After using the concealment potion, the zombies around him became much quieter. As long as Wang Tao doesn't get too close to them or stay around them for too long, he basically won't be attacked.
Wang Tao first went to the place where the four fourth-level lord zombies died.
One day has passed, and the flesh and blood of the four third-level lord zombies can still be seen here.
Zombies do not have the habit of cannibalism, and the flesh and blood is always there.
Wang Tao searched around and did not see any crystal nuclei. I don’t know if he was kicked away by zombies. After all, zombies don’t eat crystal cores.
After confirming that nothing was found here, Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue went to other places around the base to look, but still found nothing.
However, Wang Tao is not in a hurry. He plans to spend the whole night wandering around and look for it.
“Hmm? Two third-level lord zombies?”
While some distance away from the base, Wang Tao saw two third-level lord zombies with 60,000 health.
These two zombies were obviously heading towards the base. Wang Tao subconsciously wanted to kill them, but he quickly restrained himself.
The four third-level lord zombies were killed by the fourth-level zombies before. If the fourth-level zombie was nearby, would the two third-level lord zombies also be targeted?
Wang Tao thinks it is possible.
So, Wang Tao did not kill the two third-level lord zombies, but followed them.
Among so many zombies, it would be difficult to follow those two zombies under normal circumstances. After all, Wang Tao used a concealment potion, not an invisibility potion. He would be discovered if he got too close to the zombies.
But fortunately, Wang Tao has the power of perception and can track these two third-level lord zombies from a long distance. He doesn't have to worry about being discovered by these two zombies, he just needs to be careful of the zombies around him.
After following for a while, the two third-level lord zombies arrived outside the Redbud base. It felt like they wanted to go in. After all, there was so much human atmosphere inside. But unfortunately the wall is relatively high and they obviously can't climb up.
"Roar-"
The two third-level lord zombies were very angry, and they also commanded the surrounding ordinary zombies to attack the high wall.
But this is obviously a useless effort.
After working for a long time without any results, one of the lord zombies asked the other zombies to disperse, but the other lord zombie seemed unwilling.
The two lord zombies roared at each other.
Wang Tao in the distance looked surprised.
“Huh? Zombies still quarrel? I’ve learned a lot...”
“Not only are they quarreling, but they also seem to be taking action?”
Before Jiang Shixue finished speaking, she saw the two lord zombies fighting!
It punched it, it slapped it, like a child fighting.
But these are third-level lord zombies after all. They are very physically strong, and their punches and palms can cause high damage. In the blink of an eye, these two zombies lost a lot of blood.
“It’s really a great experience. It’s the first time I see zombies fighting—no!”
Wang Tao was originally going to watch a show, but he suddenly felt something was wrong.
Let’s not talk about whether zombies will fight with each other. Even if they can fight, will these lord zombies be like this, you punch me and I punch you?
Lord zombies have special powers! They obviously all play "real fire", but they don't even use superpowers? It should be the instinct of zombies to use superpowers, right? Do they even have their own instincts gone?
Something is very wrong!
Especially when the health of the two lord zombies became less and less, but they still followed the "turn-based play style", Wang Tao was absolutely sure this time that there was something wrong with these two zombies!
"In this case..." Wang Tao looked at Jiang Shixue, "How do I feel that these two third-level lord zombies are under control?"
“I feel the same way!”
Jiang Shixue nodded.
Speaking of which, both Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue have this kind of control ability.
However, the two control methods are different.
Jiang Shixue can control the minds of others to a certain extent through her hidden ability [Eye of Contract].
But this is said to be manipulation, but in fact it is guidance, or giving people a hint to subconsciously act according to Jiang Shixue's wishes. This cannot affect people of the same level, but can only affect people who are inferior to him. The weaker the opponent's mental power, the easier it is for Jiang Shixue to succeed.
Her ability is of little use in combat. After all, she can defeat those she can defeat without needing to control them, and she cannot defeat those she cannot control...especially since zombies have very simple minds, or simply have no brains. Jiang Shixue found it very difficult to guide her...
Wang Tao’s control ability is [Mental Interference].
His ability is exactly the opposite of Jiang Shixue's. The simpler the mind, the easier it is to be interfered by Wang Tao, and it is very easy for those brainless zombies to control it. But it won't work against humans, unless they are really mentally disabled in the physical sense... Therefore, Wang Tao's ability has little effect on humans, but it is very effective on zombies. Of course, only zombies whose level and mental strength are inferior to him can do it.
So they generally don’t use this kind of control ability. Wang Tao didn't think of it for the first time. But looking at the situation now, it is obvious that it is being controlled!
“Go and have a look!”
Now that he remembered that he still had this ability, Wang Tao immediately activated his mental interference and brought a few ordinary zombies around him. Wang Tao was going to let these zombies clear the way. He and Jiang Shixue sneaked over to see what was going on.
Soon, the two third-level lord zombies were barely alive, and Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue slowly moved closer.
Suddenly, Wang Tao felt that the scenery in front of him changed, turning into a dark, lifeless world, surrounded by many dull-eyed humans.
These humans are standing here not moving much, but two of them are fighting each other like you punch me and I slap you!
The two men also wanted to bite each other, but they were blocked, so they could only use punches and kicks.
Wang Tao turned his head, and Jiang Shixue also turned her head, with a look of surprise in his eyes, one red and one green.
After watching one of the two fighting "human beings" fall, Wang Tao said:
"This feeling...is similar to the illusory monster I encountered in Bauhinia City before!"
Wang Tao and the others fell into illusions like this before!
But the previous illusion was much more real than this one. Wang Tao knew it was an illusion, but he just couldn't see the flaw!
And now this illusion is full of flaws - just when Wang Tao was about to say that this illusion was full of flaws, the scenery in front of him changed again!
Suddenly it turned into an empty basketball court. There were several tall people playing on the court, and there were many spectators around.
Wang Tao himself has not changed much, he is still wearing the same combat suit. Jiang Shixue also didn't change much. She was still wearing the jk uniform given to her by Wang Tao.
“It’s indeed that kind of illusion! Maybe it’s that fourth-level monster!”
Wang Tao grinned.
The golfers came over and invited Wang Tao to play golf together.
Wang Tao was like a shock wave to them.
boom!
In an instant, flesh and blood flew everywhere, the stadium was extremely bloody, and the audience screamed one after another... everything was so real.
It would be better if they didn't have red health bars on their heads.
Wang Tao launched an indiscriminate attack on the surrounding area, killing and injuring a large number of people. The basketball stadium seemed to have become a slaughterhouse.
Looking at these **** scenes, Wang Tao's heart did not waver at all. He turned on his perception ability to the maximum and searched carefully.
Suddenly, Wang Tao slashed at a certain place.
"Got you!"
boom!
There was nothing in front of him, but Wang Tao's knife was blocked!
The picture in front of Wang Tao's eyes was slightly torn, but it quickly stabilized.
"Ran?"
In Wang Tao's perception, the thing with huge energy that he just "saw" quickly ran away after being stabbed by him.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Tao saw the scene in front of him break, and the basketball stadium disappeared and turned into the wild.
The people who were massacred by Wang Tao in the basketball gym also disappeared, turning into zombies with broken limbs and arms everywhere.
Wang Tao didn't care about the scene in front of him. He immediately looked around and at the same time turned on the plant affinity and perception to the maximum.
Vaguely, Wang Tao saw a black shadow flashing past in the distance!
Although he didn't see the whole thing, Wang Tao saw its health bar.
【HP: 116746/120000】
【Blue amount: 90000/100000】
【Level: Level 4·Lord】
【Impurities in the body: 80%】
【Awakening: Real Illusion】
【Real Illusion: Improved defense, can create a real illusion area, and affect the consciousness of all creatures in the area】
Wang Tao felt that this should be the fourth-level lord monster he encountered three months ago!
Compared with before, this monster's HP has only increased by 20,000. This shows that it should be difficult to increase the blood volume after 100,000 blood.
This time, Wang Tao finally saw its awakening.
“Real illusion!”
The awakening of this monster is to create an illusion, which is pretty much what Wang Tao expected.
Wang Tao was still very scared when he encountered this monster. After all, it was a fourth-level monster. But now, Wang Tao feels that he can make gestures!
Even Wang Tao couldn't see the flaws in this illusion, it was too much like the real world. But Wang Tao can see the health bar! A group of normal humans with a red health bar on their heads... Anyone with a brain knows what to do!
So no matter how real the illusion is, it is of little use to Wang Tao!
In addition to the illusion itself, Wang Tao didn't feel that it had any other attack capabilities.
This illusion attacks by affecting the consciousness of creatures. For example, let those zombies attack Wang Tao, or let Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue kill each other.
But zombies below level 4, unless there are a lot of them, will not pose much of a threat to Wang Tao.
Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue will not be subject to consciousness control - let alone them, even Xu Xiaojun and Nie Siyan were not affected at all.
Wang Tao estimates that the illusion's ability to control consciousness should be similar to his ability to interfere with his mind. The lower the intelligence and the weaker the spirit, the easier it is to be controlled.
So as long as Wang Tao is not deceived by the illusion, then this illusion poses no threat to Wang Tao!
It was only then that Wang Tao realized that the four third-level lord zombies that Lan Yulian mentioned before were actually not killed by the fourth-level zombies, but were made to kill each other by this illusory monster!
As for why the third-order lord zombies were allowed to kill each other... Wang Tao took a look and saw that there were no crystal cores near the two third-order lord zombies that had just died - this fantasy monster was for the crystal core to kill these third-order lord zombies. Lord zombie’s!
After discovering the identity of this fourth-level monster, Wang Tao was not too surprised by the result. The previous information provided by the military base showed that these monsters and zombies were not the same thing. Wang Tao can also observe that these monsters have impurities in their bodies, and they also need crystal nuclei.
This illusion of the fourth-level monster affects all zombies within the range. In the illusion, whether the zombies attack or not is controlled by the monster. Now that there is no illusion, these zombies are out of control. After they discovered Wang Tao, they immediately attacked.
After Jiang Shixue cleared away the besieging zombies, she asked Wang Tao:
“Brother, do you want to chase me?”
"Chase!"
Wang Tao nodded.
He felt that this fourth-level illusion monster was not as threatening as the flame monster.
When fighting the fire monster, although Wang Tao can prevent fire to a certain extent, the fire will also cause some damage to Wang Tao, and the fire monster is very strong and will lose a lot of blood when it hits Wang Tao.
But the illusion created by this illusion has no effect on Wang Tao at all. Wang Tao is not affected at all!
This is equivalent to the fantasy monster missing one awakening!
When he faced this illusory monster before, he was not strong enough and didn't quite understand the attack methods of this illusory monster, so he ran as far as he could. But now...this monster actually ran away first!
This can only mean that this fantasy monster is afraid!
Other than this illusion attack, it may not have any other powerful attack methods.
So, Wang Tao will definitely not let it go!
Wang Tao picked up all the trophies of the zombies he had just killed, and then went after the fantasy monster.
Although this monster runs very fast, Wang Tao's plant affinity range is also very large. There were a lot of plants around, so Wang Tao could easily sense that there was a huge creature that was moving quickly.
The movement speed of this fantasy monster is much faster than that of the third-level zombie, and it does not move in a straight line and has many false moves.
But Wang Tao is faster than it! In addition, Wang Tao opened "Radar" and "Perspective". All these movements of the fantasy monster were seen by Wang Tao, and there was nowhere to hide.
"it's here!"
Chasing the monster all the way into a dilapidated residential area, Wang Tao suddenly slashed at a small house.
A shock wave directly smashed a wall, causing the already dilapidated house to collapse.
In the smoke, a fat figure appeared.
Wang Tao finally saw the true face of this illusory monster.
“What the hell? Pig?”
This fantasy monster is all black, very fat, with very rough hair. Its fat black face has a big nose, big ears and white tusks... It looks like a wild boar!
But it is not the same as a real wild boar, because the wild boar is not that fat, and even the domestic pig is not as fat.
"Roar-"
The wild boar monster's eyes glowed with a faint red light, and he roared at Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue. Wang Tao's eyes flashed for a moment, and he once again entered the illusion created by it.
This time it is a large gym, but there are no big muscular men here, all are beautiful women with hot bodies.
Don’t tell me, Wang Tao thinks it looks pretty good. But when he thought that these beauties were actually disgusting zombies, Wang Tao instantly lost interest.
He disappeared in a flash, and then slashed hard at one of the beauties with a protruding front and back.
boom!
ˆ【-3284】
“This wild boar monster’s defense is so high!”
Wang Tao’s current damage can only cut off more than 3,000 blood with one sword?
This defense is higher than that of Night Demon!
But this sword cut away the illusion.
The illusion should be related to the status of the wild boar monster. Its injury will affect the use of the illusion.
Roar-
The wild boar roared angrily and charged towards Wang Tao.
Its speed was obviously not as fast as Wang Tao, and Wang Tao easily dodged the attack.
Jiang Shixue suddenly appeared from the other side, stopped directly in front of the wild boar monster, and scratched it twice.
ˆ【-726】
ˆ【-673】
Jiang Shixue's two attacks were like tickling the wild boar monster.
Wang Tao feels that the wild boar monster is different from the Night Demon. The Night Demon is physically strong in all aspects, with strong attack, defense, speed, etc.
This wild boar monster seems to be simply rough-skinned and thick-flesh. After all, its speed is not too fast and it is not as good as Wang Tao.
Seeing that a large number of zombies had been attracted around him, Wang Tao prepared to use Awakening to make a quick victory.
But Wang Tao seemed to have thought of something, and a police baton suddenly appeared in his hand.
After activating the mutated explosion-proof baton before, I have never used this equipment to deal with powerful enemies. Wang Tao wanted to know whether this electric shock effect was useful against level four monsters.
Wang Tao came to the wild boar monster and swung his stick at it, causing an arc of electricity to flash past.
ˆ【-2133】
【-10283】
The wild boar monster froze instantly, and two injuries instantly popped out.
One is the physical damage caused by the baton, and the other is the damage caused by electric current!
The physical damage of the baton is not as good as that of his machete because it cannot use high-frequency vibration. But the baton's current damage is directly five times the baton's physical damage!
Seeing this scene, Wang Tao was a little surprised.
“It seems that I don’t need to use Awakening to deal with you!”
Although Wang Tao didn't know why this happened, another shield flashing with electric arc appeared in his hand.
