Chapter 517: Chapter 223 Honesty and Trustworthiness_2
Everyone looked at Wang Tao with excitement in their eyes. After all that had happened, everyone had long known that although Jade Lotus ostensibly led the team, the actual leader was Wang Tao.
No one objected, including the eight trusted followers led by Jade Lotus.
Not to mention Wang Tao’s strength, just the fact that three Level 3 ability users had suddenly appeared in the team and were all related to Wang Tao was enough to command everyone’s respect!
Looking at the group, who even with wounds sported an energetic appearance, Wang Tao nodded with satisfaction.
If they wanted to rescue everyone from the diving gym, relying only on the few of them was certainly not enough. But with these people’s participation, the chance of success had greatly increased.
And not to say it outright, but Jade Lotus and her people were the most pleasing to the eye.
Jade Lotus, Ying Feng, and their eight followers were all tall and curvy. Their presence was captivating.
Wang Tao came before these people and then looked at Jade Lotus.
Seeming to understand what Wang Tao meant, Jade Lotus came over and whispered,
“Don’t worry, these are my sisters, absolutely reliable. They are among the few here in the club that I trust, and they have saved me many times before…”
“Mhm.”
Wang Tao nodded his head.
Then, pointing to the neatly arranged Level 2 Iron Tree Armors and Bone Hand Crossbows, along with crossbow arrows, he said,
“Each person takes a set of armor, a hand crossbow, and 100 crossbow arrows.”
“Yes!”
The women responded excitedly, with a few bold ones even throwing Wang Tao a flirtatious glance.
Wang Tao’s expression remained unchanged; after all, having seen many beauties, he had developed a degree of immunity.
He then approached Nie Siyan and her group.
Nie Siyan was accompanied by five followers, including Zhu Han and the four ability users who could emit soporific mists.
“You go too, each person takes a set of armor, a hand crossbow, and 100 crossbow arrows.”
“Yes!”
Zhu Han immediately led the four over.”
Then Wang Tao looked to the six people from the two other smaller forces.
“Your equipment is over there, similarly each person takes a set of armor, a hand crossbow, and 100 crossbow arrows.”
Wang Tao pointed to another pile of armor and arrows, which were all Level 1.
“Yes!”
They could clearly see that their equipment was different from that of the others; likely to be of lesser quality. But they were still grinning without any complaints.
After all, their relationship with Wang Tao was still fresh, and disparate treatment was normal. Besides, this gear was far superior to their own!
As for Jade Lotus, Ying Feng, and Nie Siyan, they naturally wore Level 3 Iron Tree Armor and wielded Level 3 Bone Hand Crossbows.
After some time, everyone had donned their armor. Seeing the group clad in full body armor, wielding various close-quarter weapons, and with Bone Hand Crossbows and arrows at their waists, Wang Tao was very pleased.
Although he had the power to equip them all with Level 3 gear, the distance and status between people varied, so naturally, they couldn’t wear the same armor. A hierarchical system was essential, as it gave them the incentive to strive higher.
And even Level 1 armor was much better than their original gear.
Of course, this equipment wasn’t given to them for free; from now on, all the Crystal Cores from the zombies they killed would belong to Wang Tao!
“Now we split into three teams…”
Jade Lotus and Ying Feng led their followers as one team; Nie Siyan with her followers and those from the two small forces formed another team; Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue were the third team.
The task of the first two teams was to kill zombies in an organized manner to boost their strength, as many people had yet to reach the HP limit of 29,999. They were also tasked to collect Crystal Cores for Wang Tao.
Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue, on the other hand, would see if they could locate the mother zombie.
“Begin the operation!”
“Yes!”
With a wave of his hand, Wang Tao led the group downstairs in an orderly fashion, heading in the direction of the diving gym.
In the building, the three rescued women huddled together. They watched the group clad in full body armor with eyes full of envy, wishing they could be part of them…
Wang Tao warned them not to wander around; otherwise, if danger arose, no one would save them. The three promptly nodded, indicating they understood.
Then Wang Tao asked Nie Siyan to make a trip to the diving gym.
They needed to clarify the situation of the base, including how to take over the base, and who was holding the Self Detonation remote control. She would also explain the rescue plan here so that they would be ready to cooperate in the days to come.
“Okay!”
Nie Siyan nodded her head.
Everyone began to act on their separate ways.
Wang Tao had searched for an entire day yesterday, without finding any trace of the mother zombie. But he hadn’t given up; he felt certain that a mother zombie was out there.
Unfortunately, today had wasted another whole day without any finds.
“Could it be that the mother is hiding right in the middle of the zombies… but that doesn’t seem quite right. These zombies are constantly moving; none of them stay fixed together… Perhaps, the mother is hiding in a building and never comes out?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Wang Tao felt like he might be going in the wrong direction.
He originally thought that with the survivors in the diving gym as bait, the mother zombie would also be attracted there.
But then he remembered the Green-eyed Zombie that stayed in the basement and did not go out, not from its own wishing, but because it was stuck and couldn’t leave… Maybe the mother zombie was in the same situation.
