Chapter 324： Spark Club

Chapter 324 Spark Club

The entry and exit of Changhe Base is very strict.

In addition to being authorized by authoritative departments such as the military and city hall, ordinary people who want to enter or leave the city must first register as a force, register as a field staff of the force, and then apply. Only after the application is approved can they leave.

The reason why it is so troublesome is naturally because of the zombie virus. No matter at any time, we must not relax our protection against viruses. The so-called embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed by ant nests. The culprit of the destruction of many bases was not an irresistible disaster, but failure to take adequate precautions, which allowed the zombie disease to break through from the inside... Therefore, the Changhe Base is very strict in this regard.

Although for ordinary people, there is no need to go out at all. The base is so big, there is everything inside, and the outside is so dangerous. Going out is just looking for death. But there must be those who are disobedient, so there must be rules.

Wang Tao used to go out of the city through the route authorized by the city hall. There is no need to trouble others now, just register a force.

Wang Tao asked Lan Yulian to register a force in her own name. The name was called Spark Club, which was taken from Wang Tao's Awakening [Catching Fire Starts a Prairie Fire]. The president is Lan Yulian.

Wang Tao is too lazy to take care of things, so Lan Yulian happens to have experience, so I will give her a hard time.

This group of people all joined the Spark Club and were set up as field staff, and finally applied to leave the city.

Registering a force itself is quite troublesome, requiring various assessments, inspections, etc. It is also troublesome to set up people in the force as field staff, requiring registration, testing, etc.

Wang Tao called Cui Sheng directly and asked him to help run an errand.

 Cui Sheng was not only not unhappy about Wang Tao's order, but was actually very excited.

After all, Wang Tao is the boss, and being able to run errands for the boss is something that many people dream of doing. He is not afraid of being troubled by the boss, but he is afraid of being forgotten by the boss.

Wang Tao asked Cui Sheng to help after returning from the research institute. It was already evening.

Early the next morning, while Wang Tao was having breakfast, Cui Sheng came over with all the documents.

"Mr. Wang, all the procedures for the Spark Club have been completed, and the application for leaving the city has been approved. You can leave at any time. You just need to register before leaving."

Wang Tao glanced at the documents briefly.

The name of the Spark Club is fine, as are the president Lan Yulian, vice-president Yang Changhong, Wei Zhenguo... and member Wang Tao...

Wang Tao has not held any position and is just a soldier in the Spark Club.

“Very good, thank you for your hard work.”

Wang Tao handed the document to Lan Yulian.

“It’s not hard work! It’s my honor to work for Mr. Wang!”

Cui Sheng spoke quickly.

In fact, it must have been hard work. He went to many departments overnight to get this thing done.

Because the founder of the Spark Club is Lan Yulian, Lan Yulian’s previously registered identity was that of a third-level superpower user. She didn't take the initiative to update it, so she still has this identity now.

Although the third-level superpowers are strong, there are also many third-level superpowers in the base, so they are not outstanding.

Those staff members have already finished get off work and have even gone to bed. If Cui Sheng bothers them, he will get a blank look.

He could have approached his superior at the time, but he didn't. He felt that if he troubled others with such a trivial matter, it would appear that he was too incompetent.

He can also take on the identity of Wang Tao as a fourth-level superpower, which would definitely be a green light. But he also didn't do this because he was trying to figure out what Wang Tao was thinking - Wang Tao himself didn't become the president. Is it because Wang Tao didn't want to show his face? Wouldn't it be bad if he took out Wang Tao's identity?

So he relied on his own abilities and channels to accomplish this small matter, at the cost of consuming some favors and not sleeping all night.

But there is no need to talk to Wang Tao about this kind of thing. After all, the boss doesn’t care about the process, he only cares about the results. As long as the boss is satisfied with the results.

“How much does it cost in total?”

Wang Tao raised his head and asked.

Cui Sheng said quickly:

“A total of 1,255 crystal coins. Among them, registered forces have 1,000 crystal coins…”

 Cui Sheng did not say that he helped Wang Tao pay for these expenses, but they were as much as they should be.

After all, Wang Tao is not short of this little money. If he says that he helps Wang Tao pay out the money, isn't he trying to make Wang Tao owe him a favor? This idea is obviously unacceptable! What kind of identity does he have, how dare he let the Awakened owe him a favor! This will 100% make Wang Tao disgusted, he is very careful about propriety.

"Um."

Wang Tao nodded, and then asked Nie Siyan next to him to transfer the money to him.

However, after Nie Siyan transferred the money to him, she gave him an additional first-order crystal core.

Seeing this crystal core, Cui Sheng's eyes widened immediately.

This is an orange first-order crystal core. The key point is that this crystal core has special powers! If he read it correctly, this should be an "athlete" crystal core that passively increases physical fitness!

“Mr. Wang, this…”

Cui Sheng's lips trembled a little.

He is still an ordinary person. If he can fuse this crystal core with a 100% success rate, then he will become a superpower!

Maybe to other superpowers, this is nothing, but to him, it is the difference between nothing and something!

“Errand fee.”

Wang Tao spoke casually.

The cost of running errands is obviously not worth such a crystal core, but after all, since Wang Tao came to the base, Cui Sheng has been serving him wholeheartedly until now, and Wang Tao is quite satisfied with him.

So it is appropriate to give some rewards, after all, people will still need to do errands in the future.

“Thank you! Thank you Mr. Wang!”

Cui Sheng quickly bowed and thanked him. He didn't say anything polite and accepted it quickly.

Only the big guys are polite to each other. He and Wang Tao are not equal in status. Wang Tao rewarded him. If he said he didn't want it, it would be a bit disrespectful.

And everyone is an adult, and we all know that interests are the basis for maintaining a relationship. He served Wang Tao so wholeheartedly, just to get something from Wang Tao's side! If he doesn't want anything, then Wang Tao may wonder if he has ulterior motives...

After finishing breakfast, Wang Tao said to everyone:

“Let’s go out of the city.”

“Okay~”

Cui Sheng was still waiting outside the door. When he saw Wang Tao and his party coming out, he quickly opened the car door.

Wang Tao was riding in an armed bulletproof minibus this time. There is room for them all to sit if there are many of them.

In fact, you can also fly out in a helicopter. His plane is parked in the Third Army.

However, Duan Xuchang reminded Wang Tao before that there are flying zombies and flying monsters outside. If the plane flies low, it is easy to be attacked, and if it flies high, it is easy to stall... So for safety reasons, it is still not possible to fly the plane for the time being.

The car left the villa area, and after a while, it arrived outside the East City Gate.

“Mr. Wang, I wish you a triumphant victory!”

Cui Sheng said respectfully.

“I’d like to lend you some good words.”

After registration, the car left the Changhe Base through a small gate smoothly.

When Wang Tao and the others came to Changhe Base for the first time, they walked through the East City Gate. So after leaving the city, especially when they saw the railroad tracks on the ground, everyone looked a little sad.

“Huh? What’s that for?”

Ding Yuqin suddenly pointed to a place surrounded by soldiers and asked. Wang Tao took a look and said with a smile:

“This is where the town hall and the Legion open the Meteorite.”

“It turns out to be here!”

Ding Yuqin was stunned at first, and then a little angry.

“Hmph! I hope they never come up with something good!”

The city hall had agreed to call Wang Tao the next day, but it suddenly changed its mind. Wang Tao had told them about this, so they were naturally a little unhappy.

“Don’t worry about them.”

Wang Tao shook his head. It didn't matter to him. Anyway, he had already read the data and drawn his own inference.

At the city gate, there are still quite a lot of people coming in and out. As we get further away from the base, there are fewer and fewer people.

However, there are no zombies or monsters nearby, and it is very safe along the way, which makes them a little uncomfortable.

After all, whether they were at the military base or the Redbud base, they were used to seeing a large number of zombies when they went out...

This should be due to the geographical location. Changhe Base was established in a wasteland. There were not even a building around it, let alone a city, so it was normal that there were no zombies here.

After walking for a long time, I finally saw the zombies.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Wei Zhenguo even sighed:

“I almost thought it was before the end of the world…”

Everyone got out of the car with weapons in hand.

This is a group of ordinary zombies, ranging from first to third level.

Wang Tao asked Lan Yulian and He Jijun to take action. One of the main purposes of coming out this time was to increase their blood volume to 110,000.

He Jijun's strength goes without saying. He used an ax to chop at these ordinary zombies and killed them easily. Although Lan Yulian is not good at fighting, she can easily kill her despite her level.

After a while, all the zombies were headshot. In their heads, there is a gray crystal core.

【Third-order crystal nucleus】

【Quality: inferior (2%)】

【Purity: 4% (Side Effects: None)】

Looking at the crystal core in his hand, Wang Tao frowned. He was not sure what the crystal core could be used for. But the strength of these zombies is indeed similar to what Duan Xuchang said, much stronger. Although it has little impact on Wang Tao and his party, it should have a considerable impact on some weak superpowers...

“Let’s go.”

Wang Tao checked the zombie body and made sure there was nothing else, then he took everyone in the car and headed towards the address Qu Shilin said.

Wang Tao is still quite curious about this place. When he picked up the power mushroom before, there were defensive mushrooms nearby, and he didn't know if there were any other special plants here.

On the road, Wang Tao accidentally discovered a group of hundreds of wandering zombies. Although there are no fourth-level lords, they are all third- and fourth-level ordinary zombies and elite zombies.

This obviously cannot be missed, so Wang Tao led everyone into the zombie group and started a massacre.

To Wang Tao's team, which is all level 3 superpower users and above, and has three level 4 superpower users, this group of zombies obviously poses no threat. However, in order to give up all the heads to Lan Yulian and He Jijun, they still spent some extra time.

After cleaning up the zombies, Wang Tao got a lot of crystal nuclei. Although none of them had special powers, they were all third- and fourth-level crystal nuclei after all, and they were very valuable.

But the most important thing is that Lan Yulian and Xiang Hongbin have reached 50,000 health and 60,000 health respectively.

Although their health is not full yet, it is already above the safety line and Wang Tao no longer needs to worry.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Tao and his party finally arrived at the hillside that Qu Shilin mentioned.

“It should be...this way, let’s go!”

Wang Tao parked the car at the foot of the hillside and asked some people to look at the car while he took the other people up the mountain.

There are many trees on the mountain, but due to the season, they are all bare.

According to the map Qu Shilin gave Wang Tao, everyone quickly found the specific place.

This is a very hidden cave. The outside of the cave is camouflaged, similar to what Qu Shilin said. Wang Tao took a look and saw that the disguise should not have been touched.

But Wang Tao did not relax his vigilance. He carefully removed the disguise of the cave entrance, revealing a cave entrance that was slightly shorter than him.

Wang Tao's eyes glowed with a faint green light, and he could clearly see that there was a large space inside, and there was a cave that curved downwards and didn't know where it led. There were no dangers or mushrooms within sight.

“It’s safe, come in!”

Wang Tao came in with a few people.

Then he used plant affinity to sense it carefully, and it was safe within the range he could sense. But the cave was so deep that even his plant affinity couldn't get to the bottom.

Qu Shilin told Wang Tao before that the team that worked with Qu Shilin went deep into the cave and found that there was nothing in it except mushrooms and the like.

Wang Tao originally thought that this statement should be credible, but now after seeing the actual situation, Wang Tao felt that the people in that team were not telling the truth.

Because this cave is too deep and downward, the angle is relatively large, even 90 degrees in some places.

So let’s not talk about whether they dare to go down. Even if they dare to go down, whether they can come up is a big question.

Wang Tao felt that the team had probably never gone down there, but they had never encountered any danger, so they said it was safe inside.

There are obviously no zombies in this kind of place, but it’s unclear whether there are other monsters.

However, Wang Tao did not intend to go deep, because he had already seen the power mushroom not far away.

At a corner, a large mushroom appeared that was pure white but had red spots.

Wang Tao walked over and picked one.

【Obtain: Power Mushroom*1】

【Power Mushroom: Production material, edible. After eating, your strength can be temporarily improved, but you will fall into hallucination for a certain period of time]

“These are the mushrooms. Let’s pick them. I’m here to warn you.”

I waved my hand.

"good!"

Everyone took action immediately.

There are more power mushrooms here than Wang Tao expected. After picking them all, they got more than 1,200 in total!

Except for the hundred promised to Qu Shilin, the rest can be used to make a lot of strength potions!

"Um?"

Wang Tao had just put all the mushrooms into his space backpack when he suddenly raised his eyebrows.

"somebody is coming!"
