Doomsday: I can see the health bar and kill monsters to get treasures

Chapter 557 Specialties of the Two Bases

After listening to Wang Tao's story about his background and purpose, everyone present became excited instantly.

"I didn't expect there is a super-large survivor base that is no smaller than ours!"

"If we can establish contact with this base, it will be great for both sides!"

"It would be even better if we could exchange supplies! But it doesn't seem very realistic, after all, it's too far away..."

"..."

Everyone started discussing it.

Ge Fuxing excitedly introduced the Silver Snake Base to Wang Tao.

First of all, the name. The name Silver Snake Base is indeed related to those big trees. Those tall mutant pine trees are called Silver Snake Trees by them.

The reason why it is called the Silver Snake Tree is not only because the leaves of the tree look like snakes, but also because there is a kind of small silver snake on the tree.

This silver snake is very poisonous. If it bites a human below the level of Awakener, the human may be poisoned to death if they are unlucky! Even if an Awakener is bitten, it will be very uncomfortable.

But silver snakes are very rare, not very aggressive, and very good at hiding. They will not attack humans unless they have to. So, if you encounter a silver snake outside, just don't provoke it, they will avoid humans.

However, the meat of silver snake is very delicious and it is the most delicious food in the Silver Snake Base, no doubt about it!

Small in number, good at hiding, highly toxic, and delicious meat... Adding these keywords together, you can see how precious silver snake meat is. Silver snake meat is no longer just food, but a luxury that most people may never be able to eat in their lifetime.

But the name of the Silver Snake has always been circulated among the people, and many people also know that the silver snake meat is delicious, which is the biggest feature of the Silver Snake Base... So, this base is called the Silver Snake Base.

Lu An also prepared silver snake meat for this dinner, but the quantity was not much. After all, catching this thing was too dangerous. Even professional snake catching teams would often get injured or even lose members. So only Wang Tao's table had silver snake meat.

Wang Tao tasted it and it was really delicious. To be frank, this should be the most delicious food Wang Tao has ever eaten in the end times.

And most importantly, after Wang Tao finished eating, he found that his blood volume limit had increased a little.

Although it only increased by a few dozen points, this is the upper limit of health after all!

After the HP reaches 10, it can no longer be increased by killing zombies or monsters, and you can only think of other ways. Wang Tao has seen many things that can increase the upper limit of HP, but this is the first time he has seen meat-based food.

This silver snake is indeed a good thing. I can get some to bring back later...

After talking about the name, the next thing is the origin of the Silver Snake Base.

This was originally a military base in the mountains, where they conducted field training and other things on a daily basis - another military base! But that was normal, after all, military bases had a lot of weapons and equipment and strong defense. If there was a choice, humans would definitely choose this kind of place to build a survivor base.

At that time, the trees here had not mutated yet, and it was not called the Silver Snake Base. It was led by the military, and although life was hard, due to the geographical location, there were no zombies or monsters here, and everything was developing steadily.

Later, someone with supernatural powers appeared.

As strength increases, desires also begin to expand.

The appearance of the psychic caused some disturbances in the peaceful military base.

After all, this military base is not large in scale, has no heavy firepower, and not many soldiers survived. Most importantly, there is no Hope Research Institute here. Apart from some inhibitors, there is no power armor or crystal energy weapons...

Therefore, the combat effectiveness of the military was not very strong, and those people with special abilities formed a special ability alliance... Without the advantage in numbers, the military was unable to suppress them.

The Alliance of Superpowers and the military began to clash. Gradually, the number of conflicts increased. In the final and largest conflict, the military voluntarily admitted defeat and handed over control of the base.

The military leaders knew very well that continuing the fight would only result in losses for both sides. The potential of the superpowers was obvious to all. Even if they survived this time, they might not be able to survive the next time. So it was better to withdraw early and preserve their strength. As long as they were given time, they would also have many superpowers.

The Alliance of Superpowers was also unwilling to fight to the death with the military, and they were very happy to see the military voluntarily admit defeat. So, the two sides reached a ceasefire agreement.

But there are many people in the Alliance of Superpowers. When they were fighting for power with the military, they were indeed united. But now that the power has been taken back, it is time to divide the cake. They all want to get more, but the cake is so small, and no one wants to submit to the other... So, the battle has begun again. And this time it is a civil war in the Alliance of Superpowers.

At this moment, the pine trees on the mountain suddenly began to mutate, becoming tall, majestic and extremely hard.

They thought they could use these mutant pine trees to reinforce the base, or even expand it. So, they fought among themselves while developing the base... It was a strange thing.

The chaotic situation at the Silver Snake Base began at that time and has continued until now.

Afterwards, a sudden snowstorm hit, freezing many people to death. They also temporarily put their internal fighting on hold. After overcoming the initial difficulties and the base becoming stable, they started fighting again.

Even though Lu An invited all the important people in the Silver Snake Base to the dinner party today, and it seemed like a happy occasion, in fact, these people might be toasting on the surface, but in their hearts they might be thinking about how to trick their opponents.

Ge Fuxing said that the Silver Snake Base was indeed in some chaos now, but he would soon put an end to the chaos and would then send someone directly to visit the Changhe Base.

Wang Tao didn't believe a word of what he said. If he had this ability, he would have unified the Silver Snake Base long ago. Why wait until now?
But Wang Tao suddenly thought of a problem. According to his previous experience, there are many zombies in the city, which is very dangerous, but this does not mean that the wild is safe. There are many mutant monsters in the wild, and their strength may be stronger than the zombies of the same period. It is hard to say whether it is safer in the wild or in the city...

But looking at the situation here at the Silver Snake Base, apart from internal strife, they have not encountered too many external threats... This is different from the situation Wang Tao encountered.

Wang Tao asked Ge Fuxing whether their Silver Snake Base had encountered any powerful mutant monsters since its establishment.

Ge Fuxing said no, except for a few times when someone deliberately lured the zombies here and wanted to die together, but they were blocked by the silver snake tree, there was no external threat.

This is one of the reasons why they have been fighting among themselves until now. If there really was a strong external enemy, they might have united...

After learning about the development of the Silver Snake Base, Ge Fuxing talked about the current situation of the Silver Snake Base.

He said a lot, and Wang Tao summarized it. To put it simply, although the Silver Snake Base is in a mess now, the people here are all talented. There are talents in all kinds of fields. If a communication channel is established with the Changhe Base, it will be of great help to both sides.

Wang Tao did not comment. There was definitely some help, but no one could say whether it was as great as he said. After all, the distance between the two bases was too far. It would be better if they were closer, or if there were a large number of flying mutant beasts...

Ge Fuxing emphasized the specialties of the Silver Snake Base. If the two bases could exchange materials in the future, these specialties would definitely be an important part.

The Silver Snake is naturally one of them. Wang Tao has already tasted it and it is indeed very good.

Then there are these mutant silver snake trees. Although they are wood, their hardness is comparable to that of steel. Whether used as building materials or for making weapons, armor, vehicles, etc., they are all very good. Then there are tree worms and mutant wild rice.

Only a small number of silver snake trees have tree worms, but if a tree has tree worms, then the number of tree worms in the tree will not be small. However, the silver snake tree is too hard to destroy, and it is impossible to check one by one. The people in the Grain Bureau have a way to identify which trees have tree worms, and they even built their work places in places with a lot of tree worms, so tree worms are produced continuously.

It can be said that the Food Bureau controls most of the tree insects in the Silver Snake Base.

Wang Tao had also seen tree worms on the dining table. They were palm-sized, white and plump, and looked like they were rich in protein. But Wang Tao had no appetite, especially since Lu An had prepared tree worm sashimi, which made Wang Tao speechless.

But then again, this thing is indeed high-quality food, and we can bring some back to the base and let them study it.

As for the mutated wild rice, Wang Tao has also seen it on the dining table. This thing is very big, and a grain of rice is as big as a small bowl, but the taste... I can only say that it is not deadly.

There is an area in the Silver Snake Base that is full of mutant wild rice. It was the people from the Food Bureau who first discovered and occupied this area. At that time, these wild rice were not edible, and they just wanted to study them. They didn't expect that the wild rice could mutate to the current state, which was considered a great fortune.

These mutant wild rice not only have large grains and high yields, but also have a short maturity period, and can be harvested in one month. After harvesting, as long as its roots are preserved, it can continue to grow without the need for seeds! Most importantly, it is not afraid of severe cold, and can still thrive in such heavy snow!
Although this sounds unreasonable, this is the end of the world, and unreasonableness is actually a kind of rationality.

So even if wild rice tastes bad, it’s okay as long as it won’t kill you.

However, these mutant wild rice are not without disadvantages - they cannot be transplanted.

The Food Bureau had transplanted wild rice before, but it all died. It can only survive in the place where the wild rice originally grew... They studied it for a long time, but they still couldn't figure out why. Although there is already a lot of wild rice, as a Qian countryman, farming is engraved in our genes. It would be a pity if we didn't plant all the mutant wild rice in the Silver Snake Base...

Wang Tao was also very interested in this mutated wild rice. He planned to take some back with him to see if the research institute could gain any results.

In addition to silver snakes, silver snake trees, tree worms and mutated wild rice, Ge Fuxing also secretly told Wang Tao that they have a specialty here - at a certain price, they can gain a boost in strength!

This matter was no secret among these senior executives. If he didn't say it, others would definitely tell it, so Ge ​​Fuxing simply took the initiative to tell Wang Tao to show his sincerity.

Wang Tao was not surprised by this. After all, there were too many impurities in their bodies, just like those who had used the summoning altar before.

Wang Tao now wants to know whether the summoning altar they are using is the one Wang Tao took away, or there is another summoning altar.

So Wang Tao suddenly said:

"Sacrifice others to gain strength?"

"Uh……"

Ge Fuxing was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Wang Tao already knew about it.

He said it, and other people will definitely tell it. I don’t know who leaked it.

"Well, to be precise, it is to let those criminals play their final value..."

Ge Fuxing briefly explained it to Wang Tao.

After listening to this, Wang Tao could only say that they had some conscience, but not much.

They are different from Shen Cuishan. Shen Cuishan and her people bought innocent people to sacrifice, while Ge Fuxing and his people sacrificed the criminals in the prison of the Silver Snake Base.

It sounds like the latter is more humane, but the question is, who knows if those criminals are innocent? Faced with this kind of temptation to improve strength, human nature really cannot stand the test...

"Mr. Wang, are you interested? If you are, I can help you contact the best master in our Silver Snake Base, because this thing that can improve your strength is in his hands. As long as you give him some benefits, he will not refuse... I won't lie to you, you will know after trying it!"

Ge Fuxing spoke in a somewhat tempting tone.

Wang Tao was a little confused at first. Why would Ge Fuxing say such a thing? Wasn't he afraid of being robbed? Did he trust his own character so much?

Now Wang Tao understood that the summoning altar was not in their hands, but in the hands of the top master of this so-called Silver Snake Base!
Then looking at Ge Fuxing's actions just now, it is very intriguing——

If I were an ambitious person and didn't know the true situation of the summoning altar, then after learning the news, I would definitely go to find this number one master to snatch the summoning altar!

Since he is the number one master, he must be quite capable, at least better than Ge Fuxing and the others... So, is Ge Fuxing trying to reap the benefits?

To put it another way, even if he had no intention of snatching it, the thing was not in Ge Fuxing's hands after all. It didn't matter if he spread the news. Anyway, he wouldn't suffer any loss and he could also do himself a favor...

As expected, he is the president of the Silver Snake Medical Association. He seems very polite, but in fact, he has already made a plan in his mind!
However, Wang Tao didn't care about Ge Fuxing's little tricks. He was more curious about this "number one expert".

Is this top expert so kind as to help Ge Fuxing and his team improve their strength? Or does he have other motives?
"Where is the number one expert?"

Wang Tao asked.

Hearing this, Ge Fuxing smiled immediately. He thought Wang Tao was moved. So he immediately explained with a smile:
"He didn't come today because he has been out for several days. Calculating the time, he will be back soon, probably in the next two days. When he comes back, I will introduce him to you. You are both very powerful fifth-level awakeners, and you should have a lot of common topics..."

"Row."

Wang Tao nodded and decided to wait here for another two days. He had to know what the summoning altar was like.

"Well, I've already talked about a lot of things about our Silver Snake Base. Could you please introduce the Changhe Base, Mr. Wang?"

Ge Fuxing asked with great interest.

"Okay, let's talk about the specialties first. We have a kind of power armor in our base - yes, the kind of power armor you understand. After wearing it, even an ordinary person can have the combat power of a fourth-level awakener..."

"Fuck, so awesome!"

Hearing this, everyone was very surprised, especially those fourth-level awakeners. They had worked so hard to awaken, and ordinary people could actually have the combat power of the fourth level?

"There is also a crystal energy gun that can fire bullets that are as powerful as those of an awakened person..."

Obviously, the technology level of this Silver Snake Base is not high. Wang Tao plans to attract them from this aspect...
