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

Chapter 659: Mental Power Controlling the Sword

Wang Tao had never seen anything like this before, which could permanently increase attributes by 50% without any side effects.

After all, this is a noble percentage attribute. The stronger the strength, the greater the improvement.

And now, Wang Tao saw it.

While being excited, Wang Tao did not hesitate at all and directly put the [Earth Soul Orb] into his mouth, and the Earth Soul Orb instantly turned into gas.

After a few seconds, Wang Tao perked up.

"What a good thing!"

Feeling his greatly enhanced mental power, Wang Tao licked his lips.

He had already reached the peak of the sixth level, and it was difficult to improve his strength further, but after eating this [Earth Soul Pearl], his overall strength increased significantly.

With his current mental strength, when he encounters a sixth-level enemy in the future, he can directly attack with his mental strength without having to worry about backlash.

Wang Tao felt that among the same level, there shouldn’t be many monsters whose mental power was stronger than his, right?

As the saying goes, "Misfortunes often lie where they are hidden, and blessings often lie where they are hidden." Although he encountered an ambush today and his primary law power was reduced to 90%, which made his fault tolerance rate much lower, he got an [Earth Soul Orb], which was definitely a big profit!

Moreover, Wang Tao had not had time to look at the loot package that dropped from the mutant bird, and was looking forward to seeing if there were any other good things.

The first loot package is a crystal core gift pack, which includes the orange [Sixth-Level Crystal Core·Awakening], the orange [Sixth-Level Crystal Core·Almighty], the red [Sixth-Level Crystal Core·Stripping], the red [Sixth-Level Crystal Core·Mental Defense], the red [Sixth-Level Crystal Core·Mental Armor] and the orange [Sixth-Level Crystal Core·Mental Enhancement].

Among these crystal cores, three are related to the spiritual system, and Wang Tao has never seen two of them.

[Sixth-order crystal core·spiritual armor]

[Quality: Excellent (80%)]

[Purity: 25% (side effect: reduced defense)]

[Mental Armor: Passive ability, reduces the damage caused by mental attacks to oneself]

The ability of mental armor can be simply understood as being similar to the mental defense crystal core, both of which increase mental defense, but the side effect of this mental armor is that it reduces physical defense.

Generally speaking, physical defense is more important than mental defense, because mental enemies are less common. Therefore, this crystal core is not bad, but it has certain limitations, unless this side effect is removed...

[Sixth-order crystal core: mental enhancement]

[Quality: Epic (100%)]

[Purity: 25% (side effect: reduced defense)]

[Spirit Enhancement: Passive ability, enhances your own mental attack]

The last crystal core is [Spirit Enhancement]. Judging from the name, it is very similar to another crystal core [Spirit Amplification] in Wang Tao's hand.

But the actual difference between the two is quite big.

Mental Amplification is an active ability. After using it, it can increase one's mental power for a certain period of time, making people more focused. The increase in mental power will increase a person's mental attack and mental defense to a certain extent.

Mental enhancement is simply a passive enhancement of one's mental attack. Compared with increasing mental power, it does not increase mental defense. But this is a passive ability with no consumption and no cooldown.

So on the whole, Wang Tao still prefers [Mental Enhancement].

However, the side effect of [Spirit Enhancement] is also to reduce defense, which is very annoying. Of course, Wang Tao does not need to fuse crystal cores at present. If he gets a few more in the future, he can synthesize them and give them to other people. Other spiritual awakeners still need this kind of crystal core...

After putting away these crystal cores, Wang Tao opened the subsequent packages of spoils one by one.

[Obtain: Awakening Key*1]

[Obtain: Advanced Awakening Key*1]

[Obtain: Awakening Energy Bead*1]

[Obtain: Mental Attack Amplification Potion*30]

[Obtain: Mental Defense Amplification Potion*30]

[Obtain: Light Feather Dagger Production Drawing *1]

"Eh? A blueprint for a dagger?"

Wang Tao hasn't revealed any dagger drawings for a long time.

[Light Feather Dagger Production Drawing: Can make a dagger, required materials: 1 level 2 crystal core, flying light feathers]

[Light Feather Dagger: Attributes unknown]

Generally speaking, blueprints for making weapons and equipment like this would require materials such as "iron blocks" and "steel wires", but this dagger only required crystal cores and core materials exploded by monsters.

Wang Tao was very curious about this and wondered what the difference was between this dagger and the weapon he used the day before.

So Wang Tao started making it immediately. After a flash of colorful light, a translucent dagger appeared in Wang Tao's hand.

This short sword is about thirty centimeters long and two fingers wide. There are a pair of wing-shaped patterns engraved on the translucent sword body. No one knows what material it is made of. Anyway, it feels light in Wang Tao's hand.

The blade of the dagger is sharp on both sides, but there is no guard between the blade and the handle, that is, there is no hand guard. If you hold it like this to fight, wouldn't it be easy to hurt yourself?
Wang Tao quickly looked at its specific properties.

【Light Feather Dagger】

[Level Six (Epic)]

[Durability +300, Attack Power +150, Mental Attack +200, Ability: Flying (needs awakening energy to activate)]

[Flying: Under the control of mental power, you can fly quickly]

This dagger not only increases the attack power by 150, but also increases the mental attack power by 200! This kind of equipment is very rare.

And most importantly, it also has a special power called "Flying", which seems to be able to be controlled by mental power!

After reading the properties of the [Light Feather Dagger], Wang Tao suddenly realized. No wonder it has no hand guard, it turns out that it is not held by hand, but controlled through the air!

Wang Tao immediately used his awakening energy to activate it, and then with a thought, he saw the wings engraved on the dagger seemed to come alive, suspended in the palm of Wang Tao's hand without any external force controlling it that could not be seen by the naked eye.

whoosh-

The dagger shot directly at a tree not far away, and penetrated it without any obstacles. And it continued to penetrate several trees before stopping. The reason why it stopped was not because it reached its limit, but because Wang Tao's mental control distance reached its limit...

"Strong!"

Looking at the dagger flying in the air under the control of his mental power, Wang Tao laughed.

When he saw the blueprint of the dagger, he felt that he would never be able to use it.

Because he used a broadsword, and his [Sharp Giant Blade] had very strong properties, and was considered the strongest weapon of the sixth tier, so there was no need to change it. This short sword must have been given to someone else.

But now, Wang Tao just feels that this [Light Feather Dagger] is tailor-made for him!
This dagger is controlled by mental power, so there is no need to change weapons. He can fight with two weapons at the same time!
[Light Feather Dagger] can be freely danced in the air, making the enemy defenseless! And it not only has physical attacks, but also mental attacks!

After Wang Tao's mental strength became stronger, it was no problem for him to do two things at once. The improvement brought to him by this [Light Feather Dagger] was no less than that of the [Earth Soul Orb] just now.

"Good things really do happen to good people!"

Wang Tao was deeply moved in his heart.

If he hadn't accepted the request from the Red Maple Base and came here in person, he would have missed out on these good things. After playing with the [Light Feather Dagger] for a while again, Wang Tao called the golden eagle to catch the body of the mutant dead tree and bring it back to the vicinity of the Changhe Base.

The golden eagle had not been able to catch it before because its roots were deeply embedded in the ground. Now that it was dead, there was naturally no problem.

The highest returns are obtained from growing awakening fruits with the corpses of disaster-level creatures, and they must not be wasted. However, the Red Maple Base is far away from the Changhe Base, which is not very convenient, so Wang Tao plans to take the corpses of the mutated dead trees and mutated birds back directly, and provide some research materials to the Hope Institute by the way.

Although both of them were disaster-level creatures, they were dead after all, and the effect of disaster awakening was reduced to level 5. In addition, the disaster awakening of the mutant bird would not cause harm to other lives after its death, so it was no problem for Wang Tao and the golden eagle to resist the disaster awakening of the mutant dead tree and fly back to Changhe Base.

After the golden eagle flew to the Red Maple Base, Wang Tao's golden eagle was waiting for him outside, and he flew into the Red Maple Base by himself.

"Mr. Wang!"

Seeing Wang Tao suddenly landed at the door of the City Hall, Han Youlin and others who had been waiting for news immediately came over. Their faces were both excited and nervous.

Wang Tao's speed was too fast. They were not sure whether Wang Tao had killed the monster. They even thought that Wang Tao might not have found it...

"I have already dealt with the catastrophic mutated dead tree, and there was also a catastrophic bird nearby, which I also dealt with."

Wang Tao said directly.

wow——

Upon hearing the news, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then became excited in an instant.

At this critical moment of life and death, Wang Tao would definitely not joke with them. The catastrophic creature that left them helpless was really killed by Wang Tao! The Red Maple Base can continue to hold on!
"On behalf of all the survivors of the Red Maple Base, I would like to express my gratitude to you!"

Han Youlin bowed to Wang Tao seriously.

"Little things."

Wang Tao waved his hand indifferently.

At this time, the leader of the Fiery Gang, Tu Lizhen, looked at Wang Tao with her beautiful eyes and said uncertainly:
"Mr. Wang, you just said that there was another catastrophic creature, and you dealt with it as well?"

"Well, the mutant bird is much more lethal than the mutant dead tree. Fortunately, you didn't encounter it, otherwise you would have died!"

Wang Tao was not exaggerating. When facing the mutant bird, even he felt the fatal threat. He was not sure if he could block it. If other people encountered it, they would most likely be killed instantly.

"That mutant bird..."

Wang Tao also told them in detail about the specific abilities of the mutated dead tree and the mutated bird, so that if they encounter them again in the future, they will know how to deal with them.

"hiss--"

After listening to Wang Tao's description of the mutant bird, Tu Lizhen and others took a breath.

Extremely concealed movements, extremely fast flying speed, plus extremely high physical and mental damage... this combination is too terrifying!

They couldn't even defeat the slow-moving mutated dead trees. Facing such enemies that came and went without a trace, Wang Tao's statement that they were "sure to die" was not an exaggeration, but the truth!

Everyone was somewhat relieved that they had sought help from the Changhe Base in advance, and that Wang Tao had come in person.

If they had asked for help too late, or if Changhe Base had not sent people over in time, they would probably still be trying to lure away the mutant dead tree today. Then they would have encountered the mutant bird head-on, so... they would probably have been wiped out! It's really scary just thinking about it!

Looking at the pale faces of the crowd, Wang Tao smiled and waved his hand:
"Okay, I should go back too. If you encounter this kind of enemy that you can't deal with next time, feel free to contact Changhe Base. We also need to hunt down this sixth-order disaster-level creature right now."

The overall strength of the Red Maple Base is still too weak. They don't even have a sixth-level awakener now, and they can't withstand the sixth-level disaster awakening. Letting them face the sixth-level disaster creatures is courting death. Facing such an enemy, the sixth-level awakeners must be sent out. And now, in addition to Wang Tao, the Changhe Base already has a number of sixth-level awakeners who can deal with the sixth-level disaster monsters.

"Yes!"

Han Youlin and others nodded immediately.

When they heard Wang Tao say that they were specifically looking for sixth-order catastrophic creatures, they were a little shocked.

The terrifying monster that could threaten the safety of their entire base was actually their current prey. When you compare yourself to others, you really can't compare!
When Wang Tao was about to leave, Han Youlin immediately took a bag of crystal cores that he had prepared in advance. After all, he had asked someone to come all the way here, so no matter whether it succeeded or not, he had to get paid for his hard work. Not to mention that Wang Tao had succeeded.

Seeing this bag of crystal cores, Wang Tao accepted them even though he didn't need them.

There is a high probability that the Red Maple Base will ask for help again in the future, but Wang Tao may not have the time to come every time. Just because he doesn't need a crystal core doesn't mean others don't need one. If he doesn't accept it this time, then others probably won't be willing to accept it. If this goes on for a long time, no one may be willing to come.

So we have to collect it. The Red Maple Base doesn’t lack these things anyway.

"gone."

Wang Tao spread his wings and flew into the air. Only then did Han Youlin and others see a golden eagle slowly appearing, holding a huge monster.

"It's that dead tree monster! Even though it's dead, I still feel terrified. Is this the awakening of disaster..."

Everyone was amazed.

After watching Wang Tao leave, Han Youlin looked at the people around him.

"Everyone, we have to improve our strength. What do you think of the method I mentioned before..."

……

Even if it was holding onto a huge mutant dead tree, the golden eagle's flying speed was not greatly affected. It only wasted a little time and returned to the Changhe base smoothly.

Wang Tao asked the golden eagle to throw the body of the mutated dead tree outside the base, and then took the mutated bird to the research institute.

"Shilin, I'll give you something good!"

When Wang Tao gave this mutant bird to Qu Shilin, Qu Shilin's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Huh? This is actually a catastrophic creature? It won't lose the vitality of surrounding creatures after its death, and its size is so small? What a good thing!"

She had never seen this type of catastrophic creature before, so she was naturally very interested. She immediately handed the work in her hands to her assistant, ran over happily, and then habitually used [Memory Search] to search her memory first.

"Let me see where this little catastrophic creature came from..."

Qu Shilin closed her eyes.

After a moment, she suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Wang Tao with some excitement.

"what happened?"

Wang Tao was a little strange.

"In its memory, I sensed the presence of some other catastrophic creatures and the scorching aura of fire elements! They were in a large cave..."

Qu Shilin said quickly.

"Fire element!"

Wang Tao's eyes fixed.

The scorching breath of fire element was most likely from a fire lord-level or disaster-level creature, and this was exactly what he was looking for.

As for the cave...

Wang Tao had a careful conversation with Qu Shilin and discovered that the cave Qu Shilin was talking about was the same place as the cave where Han Youlin and his team first discovered the mutated dead tree!
"There are other mutant creatures in that cave! I guess we have to go there again tomorrow!"

Wang Tao clenched his fists tightly. Now his hope of being promoted to level seven was finally here!
