Chapter 1169: Chapter 478: Opportunity for Promotion Chapter 1169: Chapter 478: Opportunity for Promotion “Wang Xiaozhang, how is it going on your end? Do you need our help?”

Pan Jian asked considerately.

He didn’t know that Wang Tao had become a Level 5 and was unaware of the monsters Wang Tao had encountered.

It was just that the deeper they went, the more dangerous it became. Even though they had many Awakener teachers and a large number of Level 2 and 3 students, exploring was becoming difficult. Could Wang Tao and his group be encountering dangers given their fast pace?

Especially since he had tried to contact Wang Tao earlier and couldn’t reach him… Thankfully, Wang Tao had contacted him, or else he would have thought something might have gone wrong.

“No need, just be extra careful yourselves…”

Wang Tao shook his head, then glanced at the time and added,
“Oh right, you guys will probably come across a Stone Forest. If you see the words left behind, that means it’s generally safe inside, and you can rest there. I’ll come back to find you later.”

The environment here was pitch-black, which made it easy to lose track of time.

Wang Tao looked at the time, realizing that more than half a day had passed since they came down. Although Ability Users had good physical strength, continuous fighting was exhausting, and they needed rest.

“A safe place? Great! Wang Xiaozhang, rest assured, I’ll make sure everyone gets there safely!”

Hearing that there was a place to rest, Pan Jian was immediately relieved and took a deep breath.

Their visibility here was limited, and these mutated plants liked to hide in obscure corners, making it very dangerous for them!

They had encountered a formidable monster earlier, and after the Awakener teachers had joined forces to kill it, they prepared to find a spot to rest temporarily. Even though they had cleared the area, a student was still attacked by a hidden mutated plant. If it weren’t for an Awakener teacher close by, it could have been a close call for that student.

After conducting a thorough search, they found quite a few more mutated plants…

Pan Jian felt like there was no safe place here!

They were all very exhausted and needed to rest, but Pan Jian didn’t dare to just pick any place to rest. After all, they were responsible for many students, the future of the base. If there were significant casualties among the students, he might not have to return…

Pan Jian had just been wondering whether to keep going forward to find a suitable place to rest or to return the same way to rest. Both options had their pros and cons.

Now that he had contacted Wang Tao, he didn’t have to hesitate any longer and would follow Wang Tao’s plan!

After all, given Wang Tao’s strength, if he said it was safe, it was likely safe, plus Wang Tao would come back for them…

Even if they did encounter danger that lead to a lot of student losses, it would also be because they followed Wang Tao’s suggestion, so it wouldn’t be his sole responsibility… It wasn’t that he wanted to shirk responsibility, but he simply couldn’t bear such a burden with his small frame!

Once Wang Tao confirmed there were no problems on the students’ end, he ended the call and continued towards the location where Ding Yuqin and her group were.

It wasn’t long before Wang Tao saw Ding Yuqin and her group, who had stayed back. He glanced quickly at their HP bars, which were all safe.

Swoosh–
A small white figure burst out from the crowd and jumped onto Wang Tao.

Wang Tao smiled and gently rubbed Little Bing’s little head.

When he went to the second level, he only brought Lightning and left Little Bing with Jiang Shixue.

“Wang Tao, are you alright? What’s it like down there?”

Ding Yuqin and the others crowded around.

“I’m fine, but it’s quite dangerous down there.”

Wang Tao had already used the Perception Ring to talk to Ding Yuqin about it before but hadn’t detailed it, given that Ding’s group was also fighting and couldn’t keep chatting.

Now that there was time, he carefully described the situation on the second level.

Hearing that there were both Tier-Five Elites and Level 5 Lords, everyone was taken aback.

No wonder they felt it was very dangerous below; it turns out there were quite a few Level 5 Lords!

With their Fourth-order Awakener strength, they could actually kill Level 5 Lords, but the environment here was not friendly to them. Especially on the second level, the Dark Attribute was too strong, making those who weren’t of the Dark Attribute very uncomfortable, greatly affecting their combat effectiveness…

After Wang Tao talked about the monsters he encountered, the Poison Lake, and more, he took out the Antidote Potion and distributed it among the group. This potion, tested by Wang Tao, was highly effective, particularly against many of the poison-resistant mutated plants.

Finally, Wang Tao took out the two treasure chests.

“These are treasure chests…”

Everyone was already used to Wang Tao pulling things out of nowhere, guessing he had something similar to a “Magical Stomach Pouch” that could store items but with significant limitations. After all, they knew Wang Tao could only pack a small portion of items, and many things had to be left on the vehicle.

But when Wang Tao explained the use of the treasure chests, everyone’s eyes widened.

“You mean to say, this chest has a huge space inside where you can put anything except living things, and the food inside won’t spoil…”

“Yes.”

After hearing Wang Tao’s affirmative reply, everyone was astounded.

Wang Tao let them all try it out, and it was indeed exactly as he had described.

“Then the next time we go out, we won’t need to carry so much stuff! We can just put it all in the treasure chest…”
