Chapter 494： Standard armor

Chapter 494 Standard Armor

“Is this...dead?”

Watching the mutated banyan tree crash to the ground, Cheng Yiyi was still a little dizzy.

To be honest, she didn't see clearly how this fifth-level lord died - because Wang Tao moved too fast!

She just felt as if she was teleporting, changing positions several times in a short period of time, and dodging countless attacks. She didn't even see the monster's complete appearance, and just heard a roar, and the opponent fell to the ground. get up…

"This is the difference between the fourth level and the fifth level..." Cheng Yiyi thought of this and shook her head again and again.

No, the fifth level and the fifth level are also different!

Although she does not have the fifth level, Wang Tao and the mutated banyan tree are both the fifth level! But the mutated banyan tree was easily killed by Wang Tao...

All we can say is that it is not the fifth-level strong man, but the fifth-level Wang Taoqiang! It's so strong that she can't even understand it... Cheng Yiyi is sure that when Wang Tao was with her in the past, he definitely didn't exert his full strength! In other words, there was no chance for him to use his full strength. Even if he killed this fifth-level mutated banyan tree, Wang Tao might not have used all his strength. After all, Wang Tao didn't use the fire element to awaken, and he didn't use the ability to emit rays from his eyes, let alone holding her as a dragster...

Feeling Cheng Yiyi’s shocked and even admiring gaze, Wang Tao smiled and said:

“Basic exercises, don’t do six.”

This is indeed a basic operation for him.

Later, you can put it in the school treasure house and let people redeem it with points.

“Ahem, Wang Tao, you can put me down now…”

【Standard solid wooden armor: attributes unknown】

"OK."

Inside the last loot package is a blueprint.

【Obtain: Fifth-order crystal core·Absorb nutrients*1】

The first crystal core gift pack contains five crystal cores, namely red [Fifth-level crystal core·Promotion], orange [Fifth-level crystal core·Almighty], purple [Fifth-level crystal core·Awakening], blue The colored [Fifth-Level Crystal Core·Defense] and the purple [Fifth-Level Crystal Core·Psychic Defense].

To ease the embarrassment, she quickly ran over to check on the mutated banyan tree. Even though the mutated banyan tree was dead, she still felt a slight sense of pressure. It’s really hard to believe that Wang Tao took a seemingly ordinary spear and stabbed him to death in a few blows... By the way, where did Wang Tao get his spear?

Wang Tao has seen this side effect of body woodification since he came to Changhe Base. To put it simply, the body will become more and more like a tree. The speed and flexibility will be reduced, but the defense will be improved, and the wood transformation is not life-threatening... not to mention that the wood transformation effect is temporary and will be lifted after three days.

Wang Tao let go of his hand, and Cheng Yiyi jumped down immediately.

She is still in Wang Tao's arms, being held by Wang Tao with one hand like a child. Although this made her feel safe, it also made her very shy.

The mutant banyan tree is Wang Tao's favorite monster that is large, has a single attack method, cannot move, and has no long-range attack capabilities, because it can be crushed with its powerful attack power.

Cheng Yiyi suddenly whispered.

【Get: Antidote Potion*50】

Wang Tao touched his chin.

【Strange Banyan Fruit: After eating it, there is a 1/2 chance of gaining a hidden attribute, and a 1/2 chance of the body being turned into wood for three days】

The second and third loot packages contain the awakening key and potion respectively.

As expected, the crystal nuclei exploded by the mutated banyan tree are used to absorb nutrients. Wang Tao had this ability before, but it only had good effects on plant monsters, and it was very ordinary on humans.

“This fruit seems pretty good...”

A banyan tree monster of such a large size has no defense ability. Instead, it has a mental defense... I can only say that it deserves to be unlucky.

At present, the enemies that can cause difficulties to Wang Tao are either using strange methods, using long-range attacks, or having too different levels...

Hearing Wang Tao's words, Cheng Yiyi felt helpless. Maybe she could, but by that time, Wang Tao didn't even know how strong he was...

Cheng Yiyi clearly remembered that Wang Tao didn’t have a spear when he came, and there was no place to hide the five-meter spear!

Although she was confused, Cheng Yiyi didn't ask any more questions. She just silently remembered that Wang Tao had the ability to "take out weapons at any time"...

[Standard solid wooden armor production drawings: After learning, you can make 1 set of wooden armor each time. Materials required: any fifth-level bark*1, any fifth-level crystal core*1, iron block*50, nails*50, Screws*50, steel wire*50, rubber*50]

【Get: Strange Banyan Fruit*1】

Shaked her head, Cheng Yiyi stopped thinking about it. Comparing herself with Wang Tao was meaningless. It would only make herself more troubled. It was better to be realistic.

“Mutated Banyan Bark” is a crafting material, and it doesn’t look like anything special. It should probably be a material that can be used to make armor.

A total of 3 physical items and 4 loot packages.

“You are too strong!”

Cheng Yiyi wanted to use some gorgeous words to praise, but after moving her mouth, she finally said Wang Taoqiang very bluntly.

【Obtain: Mutated Banyan Tree Bark*10】

After deciding the ownership of the fruit, Wang Tao looked at the trophy package again.

【Obtain: Standard solid wooden armor production blueprint*1】

but…

Wang Tao didn't know what Cheng Yiyi was thinking, so he collected the loot with ease.

What attracted Wang Tao's attention the most was naturally the thumb-sized fruit.

“Haha, you can do it in the future too!”

【Obtain: Awakening Key*1】

Wang Tao rarely uses mental attacks to deal with these monsters. After all, he doesn't know how strong the monsters' mental attacks are when he comes up. If he encounters a hard opponent, he will suffer backlash, ranging from serious injuries to dementia. It's safer to use fire, darkness and physical attacks...

It is always nice to be praised by others, especially Cheng Yiyi is very sincere.

"Huh?"

Wang Tao was pleasantly surprised when he saw this drawing.

He was still saying just now that the blueprint this time should be for armor, and now he is half right - this is indeed an armor blueprint, but it is a standard armor blueprint!

Although the attributes of standard equipment are not as good as other equipment, for other equipment, one drawing can only produce one piece or one set of equipment. The drawings of standard equipment are permanent and can be mass-produced after learning them.

The first standard equipment Wang Tao obtained was a set of third-level wooden armor, and later he obtained a third-level standard hand crossbow and hand axe. Before he left the city, he also made a batch of equipment and placed it in the school's treasure house.

He hasn’t released any more standard equipment blueprints since then, but now, he has finally appeared again, and it’s a set of fifth-level armor!

For most people who go out, armor is more precious than weapons.

“But this standard drawing seems different from the ones I’ve seen before…”

Wang Tao made a careful comparison and discovered the differences.

Although the previous standard equipment blueprints were of the third level, first-level, second-level and third-level equipment can be produced. You only need to use crystal nuclei of the same order, and other materials remain unchanged.

This drawing is limited to the use of fifth-level crystal nuclei, which means that it cannot make equipment below level five. But this is not a problem, after all, the fifth level is better, it is just that the materials are a bit more expensive.

Another difference is the core material—bark. The iron tree-style armor he obtained before can only be made using the material "iron wood". Wang Tao didn't have much iron wood in his hand, and he never came across iron wood again. It would be gone after it was used up, so he couldn't really make unlimited quantities of it.

But this blueprint is very clear. You can use any fifth-level bark. There is no limit to using the mutated banyan bark that just exploded.

This is equivalent to removing an important restriction, and the scope is suddenly much wider—any fifth-level crystal core plus fifth-level bark can make a set of fifth-level armor!

"Not bad!"

Wang Tao was even more satisfied.

Although there are relatively few fifth-order crystal nuclei and fifth-order barks now, this is not a problem. In the future, just kill more fifth-order mutant plants. Sooner or later, he will produce a large number of fifth-level armors.

While thinking about it, Wang Tao directly made a set to take a look.

Cheng Yiyi, who was not far away, suddenly felt like there was a flash of light behind her. When she turned around, she saw no light at all, but she saw that Wang Tao had a set of armor that looked very thick and simple in his hand.

【Standard solid wooden armor】

【Fifth level (fine)】

【Durability +100, defense +100, certain anti-virus ability】

Seeing this attribute, Wang Tao subconsciously wanted to shake his head. For a set of fifth-level equipment, anti-virus is a highlight, but overall it’s average. But considering that it can be mass-produced, this is extraordinary.

"This is…"

Cheng Yiyi was a little curious.

“A set of wooden armor, would you like to try it?”

“Is this made of wood? Let me try!”

Cheng Yiyi is very interested.

She was wearing a thick military uniform. After taking off her coat, she easily put on the solid wooden armor.

—

After putting it on, the sturdy wooden armor clicked and fastened for her.

“Is there a chip in this? It feels pretty smart!”

Cheng Yiyi sighed and started walking. Then she was shocked.

“Huh? This armor looks a little bloated, but it actually doesn’t affect my movement. The ergonomic design is also great!”

Cheng Yiyi exclaimed.

Wang Tao may not have much experience in this aspect, but Cheng Yiyi is different. She always wears power armor when she goes out. With the current level of technology, it was impossible for the power armor to be used like an arm and a finger, and she gradually got used to the delayed and jerky control method of the power armor. But this set of sturdy wooden armor is different, it's like her own clothes, she can hit them wherever she wants! Whether it's controllability or flexibility, nothing can be compared to power armor!

Of course, this does not mean that solid wooden armor is necessarily better than powered armor. The advantage of powered armor is that it can use crystal core energy, which does not make you so tired, and it has a wide range of weapons...especially for her special ability [Quenching Bullets] For people, the combat effectiveness improved by power armor is still stronger.

“This set of equipment is given to you, let’s go back first.”

Cheng Yiyi's powered armor has been scrapped. Other soldiers still have several sets of powered armor, but these are bound to individuals. Even if power armor is used by non-bound personnel, even with the permission of the owner, many functions are restricted, and it is not as good as solid wooden armor.

"Thanks!"

Cheng Yiyi is not polite either, she really needs a set of armor now.

Wang Tao let the lightning swallow the body of the mutated banyan tree, and then returned to the banyan tree cave with Cheng Yiyi.

Everything was normal in the tree hole, but Lin Kaiyang and the other three were tied tightly. After seeing Cheng Yiyi and Wang Tao return safely, his face suddenly turned pale. He was still praying that Wang Tao and Cheng Yiyi would die in the hands of the mutated banyan tree, but he didn't expect them to come back so soon... As for whether the mutated banyan tree died or not, that was no longer important. Anyway, he is starting to countdown to death...

Considering that Cheng Yiyi had little fighting ability now, Wang Tao took them to the stone forest. Everything went well on the way, and we arrived at the Stone Forest not long after.

Wang Tao had already notified Lan Yulian in advance, and Lan Yulian was waiting at the door. After seeing Cheng Yiyi, she immediately came over to add blood to Cheng Yiyi.

Not long after, Cheng Yiyi was full of energy again.

“It’s so comfortable...”

Cheng Yiyi felt a little envious. It’s different when there’s an awakened nanny!

Without a wet nurse, her injury would not have healed in ten days and a half. With an ordinary wet nurse, it would have taken half an hour, and she had to be a wet nurse who could treat injuries, otherwise it would be even slower. But Lan Yulian cured her in less than a minute... This is the top nanny!

When Lan Yulian was treating Cheng Yiyi, she also filled up the health of other soldiers. After they all regained their fighting strength, Cheng Yiyi stood up and left.

“I have to go back to the temporary base first…”

“Well, let’s go.”

Wang Tao nodded. He had already cleaned up the place on the way back, so there was basically no danger.

After Cheng Yiyi took the people away, Wang Tao briefly talked to Lan Yulian and others about what happened in the banyan forest.

“I didn’t expect such a thing to happen…”

Everyone was a little emotional after hearing this.

Although there are inevitably some dark things in Changhe Base, the overall atmosphere is relatively positive. In addition, various laws promulgated by the committee strictly limit internal fighting.

And Lin Kaiyang’s case is no longer an internal fight, but treason and anti-humanity. It is not an exaggeration for such a person to die ten thousand times.

“I guess it’s not that easy for Lin Kaiyang to die. The committee will definitely use him to scare the monkeys!”

Wei Zhenguo said with hatred.

Others also nodded, letting people like Lin Kaiyang die would be an advantage for him.

After everyone criticized each other verbally, Wang Tao suddenly said:

"By the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you. The second floor where Cheng Yiyi and I went does not suppress people below the fifth level. I suspect that I may have missed something..."

“Huh? That second floor doesn’t have any suppression of strength?”

Everyone was surprised.

The feeling of having their strength suppressed was so uncomfortable that they still remembered it fresh.

"So I suspect that I may have missed something..." Wang Tao touched his chin, and then said, "Well, let's go together tomorrow. There are no fifth-level lords in there. You will be safe even if your strength is suppressed." We have more people and more strength, so we should be able to find some clues..."

"good!"

Everyone nodded immediately.
