Another two top-tier pieces of equipment in hand!

After confirming there was nothing left behind, Wang Tao let Lightning swallow the corpse of the Giant Zombie, and then he left the area directly.

As for those vehicles and food supplies, Wang Tao planned to let Zhao Yaru and the others send someone to drive the vehicles away. After all, these modified track vehicles were also quite valuable; it would be a waste to abandon them.

On the way back, Wang Tao suddenly thought of an issue–

Whether it was this sixth-rank Giant Zombie or the previous one, they both seemed very excited upon seeing Wang Tao, even drooling. The Radiation Zombie was also very agitated when it saw Wang Tao.

In their eyes, Wang Tao was like a delicious meal, as if eating him would make them stronger.

And when Wang Tao faced the Radiation Zombie, he too was excited, because Wang Tao could feel the Basic Law Force within it, and he wanted to kill it to obtain the power of Laws.

But Wang Tao wasn’t so excited when facing this Giant Zombie because it did not possess the Basic Law Force.

So did these two sixth-rank Giant Zombies and the Radiation Zombie get excited upon seeing Wang Tao because he also has Basic Law Force inside his body? Just like how excited Wang Tao was looking at them. Did they also want to devour Wang Tao to obtain the Basic Law Force and achieve Ascension to Seventh Level?

“Hiss–have I become a delicacy in the eyes of sixth-rank zombies?”

Wang Tao was speechless for a moment.

It seems that if he encounters sixth-rank zombies again in the future, it will be either he kills them, or they devour him; there are no other options since everyone wants to ascend to Seventh Level…

It did not take long for Wang Tao to fly back to Zizhu Base.

He informed Zizhu Base that all the food supplies had been found and there were also several large modified track vehicles that could travel fast in the snow and ice. He told them to send someone to drive the vehicles back overnight. It was already dark, but with Wang Tao as an escort, there shouldn’t be any problems.

After some time, Zizhu Base finally transported all the food back, and everyone was overwhelmed with joy and tears.

Zhao Yaru quietly asked Wang Tao if those bandits were dead, and Wang Tao assured they had been eaten by the Giant Zombie, so there was no need to worry.

Hearing that there was another Giant Zombie lurking around, Zhao Yaru and the others couldn’t help but be stunned at how dangerous the outside world truly was!

“Tomorrow, I’ll go look for that Level 5 Mutant Beast, and then I’m going to leave. In the future, if you have any problems, you can contact me via radio, assuming the signal connects.”

Wang Tao suddenly said this to Zhao Yaru and the others.

“Ah?”

They were all somewhat reluctant for Wang Tao to leave, but now they understood that their small place couldn’t accommodate a great person like Wang Tao. Now that the troubles here were mainly resolved, it was normal for Wang Tao to leave.

However, Zhao Yaru and the others unanimously decided that whether Wang Tao left or not, he was their new leader of Zizhu Base, and Zhao Yaru and a few others would be deputy leaders. They would worry about the operation of the base, helping to manage it on behalf of Wang Tao.

Wang Tao was indifferent to this arrangement; it was just a title after all.

The next morning, amidst the reluctance, farewells, and blessings of Zhao Yaru and the others, Wang Tao left Zizhu Base.

Firstly, he went to Wuyang City urban area and retrieved his Summoning Altar. He had left the altar there for sacrifices, and now it was complete.

These zombies contributed an additional 20% to the sacrifices for the Summoning Altar, which was acceptable. A few more zombie attacks of this scale, and they would accumulate enough for 100% of the sacrifices needed.

After retrieving the altar, Wang Tao once again went near Zizhu Base, looking for the Fifth-Order Lord Mutant Beast.

Before long, Wang Tao saw a fat Mutant Wild Boar. This was the Level 5 Lord Mutant Beast that Zhao Yaru and the others had mentioned.

[HP: 800,000/800,000]

[Mana: 200,000/200,000]

[Level: Level 5, Lord]

[Internal Impurity: 80%]

[Awakening: Boulder Armor]

[Boulder Armor: Greatly increases defensive power for the duration]

Generally speaking, when Wang Tao encountered a mutant beast, he would first attempt to communicate to see if it could be tamed. If it couldn’t be tamed, then it wasn’t too late to kill it.

This Mutant Wild Boar was an Earth-system Awakener and was very valuable to tame.

But the Mutant Wild Boar was extremely irritable and seemed not very smart, making communication impossible. Wang Tao attempted to communicate twice, but both times failed.

Furthermore, the internal impurity was too high, reaching a critical level, posing a certain risk, so Wang Tao didn’t bother to communicate further and directly charged over, dispatching it with a few slashes before the Mutant Wild Boar even had a chance to use its awakening.

“Eh?”

However, upon checking the spoils of war, Wang Tao was surprised. It actually dropped a good item.

[Mystic Earth Pearl: Consuming it will permanently increase Earth Attribute defensive power by 20% and Earth Attribute Attack power by 20%].

This thing was about as strong as the Xuanhuo Pearl that Wang Tao had previously acquired. But that was from a Disaster-level zombie, and it was also in a Loot Pack.

And this was just an Ordinary Level 5 Lord, and it dropped this? Was it that casual?

“It seems that such good items can indeed be dropped by ordinary Lords, but I guess the odds are very low…”

Wang Tao had an Earth Element Awakener in his team, so this item could be used by her.

After gathering the spoils, Wang Tao left directly.

For the next few days, he planned to have a good look around. Since he had already encountered three Giant Zombies, he felt there might be more. Although he already had one million HP, while he was here, it wouldn’t hurt to gather some more Blood Beads before going back. Besides, he could also accumulate more Basic Law Force in preparation for Ascension to Seventh Level.
