Doomsday: I can see the health bar, kill monsters and drop treasure.

Chapter 491 Something weird

After Wang Tao briefly tested the cloak, to prevent himself from missing anything, Wang Tao did not leave directly, but walked around the place again, but the result was the same. The area of ​​this second floor is too small. There are only two fifth-level lords, not even a treasure chest...

Then Wang Tao had no choice but to leave.

After returning to the first floor, Wang Tao was going to find Cheng Yiyi to see how she was recovering.

It turned out that the Sixth Legion that had been stationed not far from the entrance of the cave had left. Judging from the traces on the ground, it seemed that they had left in a hurry, but there were no traces of fighting.

"They left first?"

Wang Tao contacted Cheng Yiyi directly, but it showed that there was no signal.

"These so-called communication vines don't seem very reliable!"

Wang Tao looked at the vines on the ground and muttered. He subconsciously contacted Lan Yulian again, and found out that the answer was successful.

"Wang Tao, how are you doing over there? Everything is fine here!"

Wang Tao was a little surprised.

After ending the call, Wang Tao immediately turned his head around. By the way, he told Lan Yulian and others that he would go back later because something might have happened to the Sixth Army.

The legion is different from other forces. The six legions are a whole and they need to maintain communication with each other at all times.

If it were a head-on battle, Wang Tao felt that with the combat power of the Sixth Legion, he could completely annihilate the fifth-level lord. But there are never any mutant plants that fight head-on here, they just like to sneak attacks. If it is attacked by a fifth-level lord, the Sixth Legion will be in danger!
Wang Tao did not dare to be careless. He mobilized his mental power, like a humanoid radar, and searched carefully with Lightning...

It didn't take long for Lightning to find a fifth-level lord.

Wang Tao said with a smile.

Wang Tao frowned.

After all, Wang Tao and others were taken over by him, and Wang Tao's relationship with him is indeed good. Even if Wang Tao didn't say anything, the superiors would give Duan Xuchang some benefits for Wang Tao's sake.

After Cheng Yiyi discovered something like "communication vine", she immediately contacted the people she could contact. Since she can contact herself, she can definitely contact other legions as well.

But now, Duan Xuchang said that he had lost contact with the Sixth Army... Could something have happened?
Wang Tao asked again how long Duan Xuchang had lost contact with the Sixth Army. Duan Xuchang said that their regiments are required to communicate with each other at least once an hour. The last time they communicated with the Sixth Corps was three hours ago.

Wang Tao calculated the time a little, and it should be not long after Cheng Yiyi and the others left the second floor...

But on the way back, Wang Tao's message watch received a call. Wang Tao thought it was Cheng Yiyi, but he didn't expect it to be Duan Xuchang of the Third Army Corps.

"Huh? You don't know where they went?"

Half an hour later, a piece of... woods appeared in front of Wang Tao!
It seems to be a mutated banyan tree, but the mutation is not that complete, so there is no health bar, which means that they are unconscious... Obviously, Cheng Yiyi and the others went inside.

"Hi! Principal Wang, just call me Lao Duan!"

[Health Volume: 306783/400000]

After entering, Lightning whimpered a few times. This was telling Wang Tao that there was the aura of the fifth-level lord in it, but the aura was scattered and it had to look for a while to find it.

"Lost contact for three hours..."

"Okay, thank you very much, Principal Wang! I'm also worried about something happening to the Sixth Legion, but we won't be able to get through it for a while..."

He told Lan Yulian and others about the recent exploration, and then told them that he would go back soon.

"Principal Wang, I want to ask, do you know where the people from the Sixth Army Corps have gone? We were going to have a meeting, but we couldn't find them... Commander Cheng said before that you were with them, and I couldn't contact them. I wanted to ask if you knew about her."

There was no need to distinguish the traces of retreat, Wang Tao let Lightning smell it and chased him out.

When Wang Tao just left, he took a special look. Although the Sixth Army retreated in a hurry, there were no traces of fighting... and the rush is understandable. After all, in this hellish place, it would be impossible to move too slowly.

Of course there is his own efforts, but there are also reasons for Wang Tao.

Lan Yulian said immediately after getting through.

"Did something really happen? Or maybe they went to a place without communication vines..."

After the two were polite to each other, Duan Xuchang said again:

There are also fifth-level lords on the first floor, but there are not many of them.

[Blue amount: 153895/200000]

After a while, Wang Tao came again to the place where the Sixth Army was stationed.

Duan Xuchang is self-aware. When he got along with Wang Tao, he never regarded himself as Wang Tao's savior. On the contrary, Wang Tao gave him a lot of good things... He also knew that his promotion so quickly had a lot to do with Wang Tao. So he is very grateful to Wang Tao...

"I hope Cheng Yiyi and the others are not in any danger..."

He can contact Lan Yulian, but cannot contact Cheng Yiyi? Could it be that Cheng Yiyi and the others had gone far further than the distance between him and Lan Yulian?
There was some confusion in his heart, but Wang Tao didn't think much about it.

Duan Xuchang naturally knew this, and he also knew that even if he had not picked up Wang Tao and others, Wang Tao would not have died. It was just ordinary people who would suffer, and Wang Tao would definitely be able to leave, because at that time Wang Tao had already awakened That's it...

Without hesitation, Wang Tao went in with lightning speed.

"Hello, Commander Duan!"

"what?"

When he first followed the orders of his superiors and went from Changhe Base to Zijing City to pick up Wang Tao and the others, he was still a squadron leader. Now that so much time has passed, he has become the commander of the Third Army.

Wang Tao immediately said that they are all one of our own, so we must take care of them.

"I'm not far from where the Sixth Army was stationed before. I'll go back and take a look."

Duan Xuchang said loudly.

[Level: Level ·Lord]

[Awakening: Savage Growth]

[Savage growth: Crazy growth in a short period of time]

This fifth-level lord is a mutated banyan tree, but it is not full of health... Then this situation is obvious. There is a high probability that the Sixth Legion encountered it and fought with it!
There are indeed some traces of battle around, but there are no corpses and no discarded weapons...

I don’t know if Cheng Yiyi and the others escaped, or if they were eaten by this mutated banyan tree.

Wang Tao felt that they must have escaped. If they were really eaten, Wang Tao couldn't believe that these mutated plants had even eaten their power armor...

Wang Tao really wanted to take care of this mutated banyan tree, but he was not sure if there was only one fifth-level lord here. If there are other fifth-level lords, he might harm the people of the Sixth Legion if he fights. So I’d better wait and wait until I find someone...

Still letting Lightning sniff with his nose, half an hour later, Lightning barked softly in one direction.

"Is the smell inside?" Looking at the cave entrance made of banyan trees, Wang Tao waved directly, "Let's go in!"

It was very dark inside the tree hole, and the density of the black mist was comparable to the second layer. However, these naturally had no impact on Wang Tao. He was cautious along the way and soon saw the figure.

"It's really here!"

Wang Tao walked over directly.

……

Not far away, a large group of soldiers gathered around. They were all injured, but their mental state was good.

"Commander Lin, do you think we can go back alive..."

A soldier spoke bitterly.

He also knew that it was not good to say such things at this time, but he really couldn't control it. If you don't give him some hope, he might collapse. "Don't worry, everyone, we will go back safely! When I recover my strength, I will rush out with you! I remember the way, it will be fine!"

Lin Kaiyang, deputy commander of the Sixth Army, spoke firmly.

Seeing that Lin Kaiyang's belief was so firm, the morale of the others instantly improved a lot.

"It's a pity that Commander Pei and Commander Cheng..."

At this time, another soldier sighed.

Hearing this, the soldiers fell silent for an instant, and a sad atmosphere emerged in their hearts.

"What happened to Commander Cheng?"

Suddenly, a deep voice seemed to ring in everyone's ears. Everyone was shocked.

"who is it!"

All the soldiers took up their weapons and flashlights and stared cautiously into the darkness.

Lin Kaiyang also immediately picked up the crystal energy gun. His expression was a little panicked, but also a little surprised.

He shouted tentatively:
"Consultant Wang? Is that you?"

rustle--

In the darkness, a tall figure and a dog slowly appeared in front of everyone.

"It's really Consultant Wang!"

Seeing that it was indeed Wang Tao, Lin Kaiyang breathed a sigh of relief. The other soldiers also breathed a sigh of relief.

Naturally, they all know Wang Tao as a consultant, but they have not had much contact with Wang Tao, so they are not sure about Wang Tao's voice.

Wang Tao walked over and looked at Lin Kaiyang with a frown:
"What did you just say about Cheng Yiyi?"

"Legion Commander, she..."

Lin Kaiyang's eyes suddenly turned red, and the other soldiers also lowered their heads.

"She, she was eaten by that fifth-level lord monster! Deputy Commander Pei also died..."

Lin Kaiyang whispered.

"..."

When Wang Tao just heard what they said, he had a bad premonition, but when he really heard the result, he still couldn't believe it. The people who were still fighting together before are gone now?

He and Cheng Yiyi had a very good relationship and were good friends. He was willing to be named as a consultant in the Sixth Army just because of Cheng Yiyi... But Cheng Yiyi died.

Wang Tao felt a little hard to accept it, but after living in the apocalypse for so long, he was used to seeing death, so he would not lose his composure.

"What exactly is going on!"

"It's like this. Not long after we separated from you, Deputy Commander Pei said that someone told him that there was a fourth-order lord in a place, and that place was here. So we came over, and found out that it was not a fourth-order lord, but a fifth-order lord. Rank lord! That lord is very strong, we can't defeat it at all. In order to let us escape, Commander Cheng and Deputy Commander Pei gave us the rear... I saw with my own eyes that the monster tore into pieces the power armor of Deputy Commander Pei. Then he grabbed Commander Cheng out of his power armor and ate him..."

Lin Kaiyang covered his face and explained painfully.

The soldiers also wept secretly.

Hearing this, Wang Tao's heart suddenly sank. He asked again:
"What kind of monster is it?"

"It's a big banyan tree..."

"Then have you encountered other monsters in the future?"

"No, I just met that fifth-level lord..."

It seemed that what Cheng Yiyi and the others encountered should be the mutated banyan tree that Wang Tao had just seen.

Wang Tao had the urge to go over and kill the mutated banyan tree immediately.

However, he quickly suppressed his emotions and observed Lin Kaiyang and the others.

There are only three intact powered armors here, and there are no other powered armors. Wang Tao has observed around the mutation and there are no damaged powered armors there...

Could it be that the mutated banyan tree ate the power armor?

Or is it that Cheng Yiyi and the others did not die, but escaped death?
Wang Tao thinks the latter is more likely.

Although Lin Kaiyang said he saw it with his own eyes, the darkness here was so thick that it was difficult to see clearly even if he was a few steps away. Maybe he saw it wrong...

"You guys come with me first."

Wang Tao planned to take these people out first, and then come over to search to see if Cheng Yiyi was still alive. He still didn't want to believe that Cheng Yiyi died like this.

"Yes!"

Lin Kaiyang immediately gave a military salute excitedly, and then called on everyone to follow him quickly.

After Wang Tao led them out of the tree hole, and was about to return along the original route, lightning suddenly tugged on Wang Tao's clothes.

He lowered his head to Lightning and briefly communicated with his mental power. Wang Tao frowned at first, and then had a strange expression on his face.

"Advisor Wang, what's wrong?"

Seeing Wang Tao suddenly stop, Lin Kaiyang spoke cautiously.

"Something's not right, I feel the breath of a fifth-level lord... A fifth-level lord is coming!"

"what?"

After hearing this, everyone was a little panicked, and their previous miserable situation was still vivid in their minds.

"The aura of this fifth-level lord is very powerful. I can't protect you. You go back to the tree hole first, and I will lure it away!"

Wang Tao said with a serious face.

"Yes!"

Lin Kaiyang did not dare to hesitate and immediately took the people back to the tree cave.

After Wang Tao saw that everyone had gone back, he did not lure the fifth-level lord away as he said, because no fifth-level lord came.

Lightning just told him that after careful identification, he smelled Cheng Yiyi's scent. Wang Tao is now going to look for it.

The reason why Wang Tao didn't tell Lin Kaiyang and the others was because Lightning told Wang Tao that there was a person who was hostile to Wang Tao for a moment just after Wang Tao showed up!
This is interesting. After he revealed his identity, there were still people who were hostile to him... This was obviously abnormal. After all, Wang Tao was one of their own to them. Moreover, Wang Tao didn’t know the person Lightning was talking about.

So Wang Tao asked others to hide first, and he went to find Cheng Yiyi himself.

More than ten minutes later, Lightning took Wang Tao to a small banyan tree cave. Wang Tao used his mental power to detect it and saw the seriously injured Cheng Yiyi inside.

At this time, Cheng Yiyi was tied up by a thick iron chain.

"There is indeed a problem!"

Wang Tao walked in immediately.
