"The giant eagle is not chasing us!"

Seeing that the giant eagle did not fly over the crack, nor did it go around the crack, but landed on the slope, everyone in the crystal energy car breathed a sigh of relief.

"Did it really give up?"

Qu Shilin was still in disbelief.

"It probably won't come, at least not for the time being."

Wang Tao said with a smile as he watched the giant eagle gradually disappear from sight.

"That's good!"

Qu Shilin can still feel her heart beating rapidly. The situation of being chased by the giant eagle and flying over the crack just now was a bit too exciting.

After a fierce chase, it was already dark.

Wang Tao and others looked at the map, and after roughly guessing their location, he said to everyone:

"The matter of opening the fifth-level meteorite is temporarily suspended. We have to go back and tell them about this crack. But we can take a look to see if Snake Fruit is there..."

This kind of crack is too weird and must be taken precautions in advance. And Wang Tao has a worry - will cracks appear in the Changhe base? If it appeared in the base, it might be a big trouble, so he had to go back and check the situation.

But it happened that he would pass by the snake fruit on his way back, so Wang Tao planned to take a look. If it was still there, he would transplant it back. If it was not there, forget it.

"clear!"

Everyone nodded, and then everyone became alert to prevent possible dangers.

Although the giant eagle is no longer chasing, the speed of the crystal energy car has not slowed down too much, and the road is easier to walk, so it can be said that the road is going fast.

In the evening, Wang Tao finally arrived near Snake Guo.

"Huh? Are those snake fruits still there?"

After the car got closer, Wang Tao looked through the wind and snow and saw the red fruits.

[Strange Snake Fruit: After humans eat it, there is a small probability of gaining hidden attributes and a high probability of being poisoned. After the snake creature eats it, its strength will increase slightly, and there is a small probability that it will awaken]

After seeing that it was indeed a snake fruit, Wang Tao suddenly grinned.

"It seems that these snake fruits are extremely cold-resistant! They even seem to be growing better than before the heavy snowfall..."

The crystal energy car stopped near Sheguo, and Wang Tao and his party got out of the car.

Seeing these snake fruits, Qu Shilin's eyes lit up at first, and then she directly said that they could be transplanted.

"The fact that they can still survive in this environment shows that they are very tenacious. If we are careful when transplanting, and dig out the soil under their roots, it should not be a big problem..."

Normally, some samples need to be transplanted for testing first, but Wang Tao didn't have time to wait and planned to transplant them all at once.

Of course, Wang Tao will not remove them all, he will still leave a small part. In case the transplant fails, this small part can be regarded as a fault tolerance rate.

[Strange Snake Fruit] This thing is not cost-effective for humans to eat because it is too poisonous. Wang Tao had previously given the snake fruit to Qu Shilin for testing. Qu Shilin told Wang Tao that a total of 10 volunteers captured from the prison at that time were all poisoned after using it. The poison was extremely toxic. If not They made complete preparations in advance, and basically the whole army was wiped out... Moreover, those volunteers had some sequelae after being poisoned, and I don't know if they can be eliminated.

Therefore, this [Strange Snake Fruit] is much more toxic than [Strange Poison Sac]. There is a high probability that it will be dangerous for people to eat it. It is better not to bet on this luck.

But eating snakes is different. Not only does it increase the chance of awakening, but it also slightly increases strength every time it is eaten. The price/performance ratio is obviously higher.

So these snake fruits are obviously prepared for Xiao Hei and his five black snakes.

Xiaohei and the others didn't come with them this time, they were all at home. Because they don't like cold places and want to sleep when the temperature gets low. They can't fight in the snow, so they stay at home...

When Wang Tao left last time, he picked all these snake fruits. But this time we meet again, there are a lot of fruits here. I don’t know how long it takes for the fruit trees to ripen... Of course, it’s a good thing to ripen quickly.

With the joint efforts of a group of people, most of the snake fruits here were dug out with their roots and soil.

This time the car is larger, and there is a special truck body at the back. In addition, these snake fruit trees are not big, just like bushes, so there is no problem in loading these small fruit trees.

After spending some time, everyone finally moved most of the snake fruit trees onto the car.

Looking at the bare hillside, Wang Tao waved his hand.

"Let's go."

Buzz——

The crystal energy engine made a soft sound and carried everyone away from here.

It was already dark at this time, but Wang Tao felt that he was getting closer to the base, so he did not stop and prepared to rush back overnight. He Jijun stepped on the accelerator all the way, and in the middle of the night, everyone in the car finally saw the high snow-capped wall.

"finally reached!"

After a while, the crystal energy car arrived outside the south gate.

There was someone on duty inside, specifically waiting for Wang Tao and the others. When they saw someone coming back, they immediately identified themselves to Wang Tao.

After there was no problem with his identity, the door slowly opened and the crystal energy car drove in.

Looking at the familiar scenes in the base, everyone completely relaxed.

"The air in the base is still sweet!"

Qu Shilin joked.

"That's not the case!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

After some inspections, it was confirmed that none of Wang Tao and the others were infected and there were no zombies in the car. The soldiers saluted and opened the second gate.

Wang Tao used his message watch to contact Gu Yun.

Gu Yun was probably sleeping, and his voice was a little confused. When he heard it was Wang Tao, he immediately became energetic. Especially when Wang Tao told him that there were important changes outside and he needed to meet and talk, he immediately asked Wang Tao to go to the city hall, and he asked someone to prepare supper for Wang Tao and the others.

"Let's go to the city hall first."

From the conversation with Gu Yun, Wang Tao knew that there were no cracks in the base, and he felt relieved.

As the car drove all the way to the city hall, Wang Tao saw a group of people waiting in the heavy snow at the door.

Wang Tao originally thought that Gu Yun had brought some people to greet them, but when he got closer, he discovered that in addition to Gu Yun, this group of people also included the deputy mayor, Cheng Yiyi, other leaders of the six major legions, and base committee members.

"Wang Tao, welcome to the triumphant return!"

Gu Yun was immediately relieved when he saw that Wang Tao and his party were fine.

"Good evening, everyone! It's such a late night and I'm so flattered that so many leaders are here!"

Wang Tao immediately smiled and greeted everyone.

"Everywhere! Wherever there is a leader, we are all friends!"

Everyone waved their hands quickly.

Strength is king in the last days, and Wang Tao's strength when he arrested people from the Twilight Church was obvious to all. Although Wang Tao's apparent status was not as high as any of theirs, they did not dare to regard themselves as leaders in front of Wang Tao.

After everyone was a little polite, they walked into the city hall together.

As soon as he entered the door, Wang Tao smelled the strong aroma of food. They had been eating nutrient solution these past few days, and when they smelled this smell, their index fingers twitched.

"Come, let's talk while eating!"

Due to the rush of time, the food prepared was not very elaborate. It was presented in the form of a buffet, and everyone could eat as much as they wanted.

The others obviously didn't have much appetite, so they just served the food and waited for Wang Tao to speak.

The top brass of the base came here this time, not because Wang Tao was so powerful, but because Wang Tao had returned from the ice and snow, and what he saw outside was definitely important information. Not to mention that Wang Tao also told Gu Yun that something happened outside. So they have to know what is going on outside as soon as possible.

Wang Tao didn't show off. After finishing the meal, he immediately said to everyone:

"There are indeed zombies out there, and there are a lot of them."

Just one sentence made everyone excited instantly.

They thought Wang Tao was talking about zombies that were unable to move due to being frozen. But what Wang Tao said next made their expressions change.

"Those zombies are what I call 'frozen zombies', but they are not the kind of freezing you understand, but they have a 'frozen halo' effect..."

Wang Tao carefully explained the situation of frozen zombies to everyone.

One of his main purposes for going out this time, and what Gu Yun and the others were most concerned about, was what was happening with the zombies outside.

"Frozen zombies..."

"Wait a minute, are you saying that these frozen zombies are all elite zombies, and they are basically level three or above?"

Everyone was shocked when they heard the key words in Wang Tao's words.

Have all the ordinary zombies outside evolved into frozen zombies? And they are all elite zombies of level 3, level 4 and above! And they all have a range of negative status, which will affect humans as soon as they get close...

Everyone felt a chill down their spines instantly.

"That's not all. In addition to these frozen zombie elites, there are also frozen zombie lords. When those lords are with a large number of frozen zombies, their overall combat effectiveness will increase, making it much more difficult for us to kill..."

"I have also been to the zombie groups you mentioned before. The zombies in the corpse groups are all gathered together. There are dozens of fourth-level lords, ten fifth-level lords, and even two terrifying ones. Sixth level lord!"

"Hiss—sixth-level lord!"

Although Gu Yun and the others were mentally prepared, they still couldn't hold back when they heard that there were indeed two sixth-order lords. After all, the strongest strength in the base is only level four...

As if Wang Tao felt that the bad news was not enough for them, Wang Tao handed them his information watch, with a video playing on the screen.

"Take a look at this video."

Everyone looked at it immediately.

"I'll go, there are so many zombies!"

"Is this a frozen zombie? It does feel different from the previous zombies..."

"Eh? Let me go! Did they fall into the cliff?"

"No! This is not a cliff, this is...a crack in the ground?"

After seeing the huge crack that swallowed countless zombies in the video, everyone was shocked.

"There's an earthquake outside? It's impossible! We didn't feel it..."

They thought it was an earthquake.

"This is not an earthquake, but a strange underground crack..."

Wang Tao explained.

As the video continued to play, they saw several more black cracks appear.

"Wang Tao, when did you take this photo? Do you know what's in these cracks?"

Cheng Yiyi beside him quickly asked.

Wang Tao took the steak and took a big bite and said:

"These cracks suddenly appeared last night. I have seen half of the village left. As for the missing half, it obviously fell into the cracks silently. As for what is inside the cracks, I don't know. clear……"

Wang Tao talked about his own observations and speculations.

"Suddenly..."

After hearing this, everyone's faces became even more ugly.

They all thought of the same problem as Wang Tao before - if these cracks appeared in the base, it would be troublesome!

"Gu Yun, is our base okay?"

Everyone looked at Gu Yun subconsciously.

Gu Yun had already picked up the phone and started contacting various departments.

After a moment, he put down the phone.

"There is nothing going on at our base. It's okay for now..."

Everyone was slightly relieved when they heard that the base was fine, but their faces were still full of worry.

It is a good thing that there is no base now, but no one can guarantee whether it will suddenly appear in the future.

Although Wang Tao said that he did not feel much danger from the crack, this was just Wang Tao's personal feeling. Wang Tao's strength is so strong, he must be different from ordinary people. If cracks suddenly appear in the base, what will others do...

"A large number of frozen zombie elites, fifth-level or even sixth-level lords, mysterious cracks... Oh yes, and the giant eagle that is still active in the snow..."

No matter which problem it is, it is enough to give them a headache. When these problems occur at the same time, it is simply fatal.

But at this moment, someone suddenly said:

"About this crack... Principal Wang, can you explain it more carefully?"

This was the first time that Wang Tao heard someone call him Principal Wang, and he almost didn't react. After all, he hasn't taken up his post at Awakening School yet.

After reacting, Wang Tao looked at the speaker. He was a thin middle-aged man. Third-level strength has no hidden attributes.

He is a committee member. If Wang Tao remembers correctly, his name should be Shi Chuanfu, and he seems to be from a big force.

"Can."

Wang Tao nodded, and then explained the crack in detail. Including his own inferences, feelings, various details he saw, etc.

After he finished speaking, he saw that Shi Chuanfu was a little unsure and said:

"Why do I feel...the cracks that Principal Wang mentioned are very much like caves!"

"Huh? Caves?"

Many people, including Wang Tao, were a little confused.

Several people were suddenly enlightened after Shi Chuanfu said this.

"If you remind me, don't tell me. I think it does look like a cave! First of all, the cave is underground. Secondly, there is also this kind of black mist in the cave..."

Only a few people know the exact location of the crypt. Only they have seen the specific conditions of the cave.

The people who spoke were among the people who knew the specific location of the cave.

When they said this, Wang Tao immediately raised his eyebrows.

If it's really a cave, doesn't that mean they can go in now?
