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

Chapter 720: Promotion to Level
The number of survivors in Shuize County was much greater than Wang Tao had imagined.

In his previous life, when Wang Tao arrived at the Shuize Base, there were only more than 300 survivors.

But now, Wang Tao has participated in several rescue operations with Wei Zhenguo and others. In just one day, they have rescued a thousand survivors. If the rescue continues for a few more days, it will not be a problem for the Shuize base to exceed 3,000 people!

But when Wang Tao thought about it carefully, it was reasonable.

After all, when he came to Shuize Base in his previous life, it was already a month after the apocalypse. In a month, most survivors could not hold on. Now is the fifth day of the apocalypse, as long as the survivors do not face zombies head-on, they can continue to hold on.

In addition, the network signal is still available, and the survivors can still communicate with each other. Maybe a simple message from a survivor can save the life of another survivor. Especially when some people share some information about the survivors' base, this gives many survivors hope. As long as people have hope, they can continue to persevere.

Of course, the most important point is that Wang Tao took action.

When Wang Tao is fully energized, he is almost invincible. At least so far, Wang Tao has not met an opponent. And Wang Tao also has a black cat, Taxue, by his side. This is a real first-level lord. Most zombies are no match for it.

As long as Wang Tao participated in the rescue operation, it never failed, and it was a successful operation to rescue all the survivors.

With so many favorable conditions, it is reasonable to save a thousand people in one day.

Wang Tao worked hard for a whole day and was indeed very tired. But he also gained a lot, and the hard work was totally worth it. Not to mention that he saved so many people, the crystal cores he got from killing zombies far exceeded his own expectations.

He had previously estimated that it would take him six or seven days to be promoted to the second level, but judging from today's situation, three or four days might be enough!

So Wang Tao said that he would continue to help Wei Zhenguo and others rescue the survivors tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, which moved them very much.

After all, they have a mission assigned by their superiors, and rescuing survivors is their job. Although Wang Tao is powerful, he does not have this obligation. Wang Tao can spare no effort to help, which can be called a "Mr. righteousness".

So Wei Zhenguo and the others also said that Wang Tao could pick up the crystal cores they obtained from hunting zombies if he needed them.

Wang Tao naturally accepted all the offers and told Wei Zhenguo and the others not to fuse the crystal cores at will, otherwise if they fused a crystal core with serious side effects, they would have no way to regret it. They would fuse the crystal cores after Wang Tao picked out a few suitable ones for them.

They all learned about the function of the crystal core from Wang Tao. Although they were all envious, the side effects were no joke. If they were not careful, their lives would be ruined. So they were also very cautious and said they could wait.

……

It was already late at night when Wang Tao returned to Xingfu Community.

Ding Yuqin heard some noise at Wang Tao's door, so she quickly opened the door and took a look. When she found out it was Wang Tao, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Wang Tao is very strong, there are so many zombies outside, and Wang Tao has not come back for the whole day, so she is still a little worried.

"Is sister-in-law still awake?"

Wang Tao turned around and asked.

"Uh... I'll go to bed soon, but... well, I was a little worried about you... I'm relieved to see you back..."

When Ding Yuqin said this, she was a little afraid to look Wang Tao in the eye.

"Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law." Wang Tao smiled, and then said, "By the way, have you eaten?"

"without……"

Ding Yuqin shook her head somewhat embarrassedly.

There was food left at Wang Tao's house, but Wang Tao had not come back today. There were two women in Wang Tao's house, and they didn't let her cook, so she didn't feel comfortable going over to eat for free.

"Then come to my house and make some midnight snacks. I'm hungry too. Let's eat together."

Wang Tao had eaten at the Shuize base, but he was physically exhausted and had killed quite a few zombies on the way back, so he was indeed a little hungry.

"it is good!"

Ding Yuqin's face suddenly lit up with joy, and she quickly followed Wang Tao into the house.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Li Qiuyu and Jiang Shixue lying on the sofa, but they were already asleep, snuggling together.

Obviously, they were also waiting for Wang Tao to come back.

"Sister-in-law, just go and cook some noodles, maybe tomato and egg noodles."

Wang Tao said to Ding Yuqin.

"Ok!"

Ding Yuqin immediately ran to the kitchen to cook noodles.

Then Wang Tao looked at Taxue and asked if it wanted to eat it. Taxue rubbed Wang Tao with its little head, indicating that it wanted to eat canned fish.

Today, when Wang Tao was rescuing survivors outside, he passed by a pet store. There were no pets inside, but there was a lot of cat food. Taxue loved to eat the cat food, so Wang Tao collected all the cat food and gave it to it as a snack later.

"Row."

Wang Tao took out a can of fish from his space backpack, meowed to express his gratitude, and then ran away with the can of fish in his mouth.

Wang Tao smiled and shook his head, then came to the sofa. Seeing the two girls sleeping soundly, he did not call them, but carried Jiang Shixue into the guest room.

Jiang Shixue woke up in a daze, but when she saw that it was Wang Tao, she closed her eyes again with peace of mind. Too many things had happened in the past few days. For an ordinary little girl like her, she had to survive in the wilderness for so long. She probably couldn't recover without a good rest for a few days.

Then Wang Tao carried Li Qiuyu to the guest room.

In fact, when Wang Tao took Jiang Shixue away, Li Qiuyu had already woken up, after all, Jiang Shixue was in her arms. But she didn't know why she didn't open her eyes, but chose to pretend to sleep.

When Wang Tao picked her up, she suddenly felt her heart beating so fast that she almost couldn't pretend anymore.

However, after Wang Tao carried her to the bed, he considerately covered her with a quilt and then left.

This immediately made Li Qiuyu feel anxious and worried, especially when she thought about the "candlelight dinner" that Wang Tao and Ding Yuqin would have later, she felt inexplicably irritated.

But if she was asked to leave now, she would feel embarrassed. After all, she had just pretended to sleep for so long...

Wang Tao naturally had no idea that Li Qiuyu was suffering from insomnia again. At this time, he was eating noodles with Ding Yuqin.

Neither of them spoke. While eating noodles, Ding Yuqin would secretly glance at Wang Tao from time to time.

"Sister-in-law, do you have anything you want to tell me?"

Wang Tao suddenly looked up and asked.

"Uh...it's okay, it's okay!"

Ding Yuqin waved her hands quickly. But after waiting for a while, she gritted her teeth and summoned up the courage to say, "Hey, Wang Tao, when are you moving?"

"Just these two days."

In fact, you can move anytime, since Wang Tao has a space backpack that can carry anything.

It's just that the Shuize base has not been built yet. Once everything is done, Wang Tao will go there. It will only take two days. I guess it's time for me to reach the second level, and the base will also be ready.

When Ding Yuqin heard that Wang Tao was going to move out in the next two days, she couldn't bear it any longer. She immediately put down her chopsticks, bit her lips, looked at Wang Tao pitifully and said:
"Wang Tao, can you take my sister-in-law with you when you move? If you leave, my sister-in-law won't be able to survive here alone..."

"no problem."

Wang Tao nodded directly.

"……what?"

Ding Yuqin was stunned.

When Wang Tao said he was moving, he didn't ask her, so she thought Wang Tao didn't plan to take her with him. So she thought of many reasons to persuade Wang Tao, but Wang Tao agreed directly without giving her a chance to show her ability.

"What's wrong? Any other questions?"

Wang Tao looked at Ding Yuqin in confusion.

"No, no problem! I, I'm just so happy! Thank you so much... If I stayed here alone, I would definitely die... Woohoo... From now on, sister-in-law will cook for you and wash your clothes..."

Ding Yuqin was so excited that she was incoherent and even her eyes were red.

"Eat it quickly, or it will get cold."

Wang Tao didn't explain much.

In fact, even if Wang Tao didn't take her away, she could still go to the Shuize Base. Because there were still many survivors in this Xingfu Community, Xiang Hongbin and others would take them away at that time.

Of course, Wang Tao would definitely take her away. In his previous life, Wang Tao said that he would make them live well in this life, even if they had no memories, but Wang Tao would not break his promise.

"Ok!"

Ding Yuqin quickly wiped her tears and continued eating noodles.

After having supper, Ding Yuqin made sure that Wang Tao had no other instructions, and then she tiptoed back to her home.

Zombies are particularly active at night, with roars everywhere. Any louder noise may attract zombies.

Wang Tao came to the roof to see if there were any elite or lord zombies nearby. Not to mention, there were indeed a few elite zombies that appeared.

Wang Tao flew directly over and easily took care of these elite zombies, then came back to sleep.

The next day.

Wang Tao went out again early in the morning.

Before leaving, he told Ding Yuqin that there was plenty of food at his house and they could eat anytime.

Ding Yuqin nodded quickly to show that she understood. After she was sure that Wang Tao would take her away last night, her mood improved a lot. She even liked Li Qiuyu a lot better.

But Li Qiuyu felt a little uncomfortable. She didn't know what Wang Tao and Ding Yuqin talked about yesterday, especially since Wang Tao went out for a while last night.

It was late at night, so Wang Tao couldn't have gone out to kill zombies, right? So he must have gone to Ding Yuqin's house!
It's the dead of night, a man and a woman are alone in a room, you can imagine what will happen.

Seeing how happy Ding Yuqin was, she must have been pampered a lot last night!

This made Li Qiuyu feel a sense of crisis. After all, she was brought back by Wang Tao. They were all adults, so she knew what this meant. Even if she didn't like him, she was basically Wang Tao's person now. As long as it could allow her daughter to survive in the apocalypse, she would accept it. And she didn't hate Wang Tao...

But in this situation, if Wang Tao shifted his interest in her to Ding Yuqin, gradually alienated her, and eventually stopped caring about Jiang Shixue, wouldn't that be the end...

Thinking of this, Li Qiuyu's eyes suddenly became firm. Ding Yuqin could take the initiative, so there was no reason why she couldn't do the same!

Wang Tao didn't know that Li Qiuyu had started to have wild thoughts again.

He first went to the Shuize base, and then began to rescue the survivors one by one according to the plan made by Wei Zhenguo.

The situation today is a little different from yesterday. The rescue work went smoothly yesterday, but not so smoothly today.

It’s not that we encountered powerful zombies, but that there was a group of survivors who were unwilling to come to the Shuize base.

They believe that now is the end of the world, and strength is king. Since they have the ability to survive in the end of the world, why should they be inferior to others? Wouldn't it be better to be a local emperor?
It's a little dangerous, but it's free! They can do whatever they want, and no one or rules can control them. Isn't this better than working as a slave in the survivor base?
Wei Zhenguo didn't want to give up on this group of people. After all, there were more than 40 of them. And the leader was a superpower like Wang Tao! If these people could come to the Shuize base, it would greatly enhance the strength of their Shuize base.

But they refused to come. If they hadn't seen Wei Zhenguo and the others holding guns, they would have probably started cursing.

Finally, seeing that it was really useless, Wei Zhenguo stopped forcing it.

After the security forces left, this group of people also told this matter to their local friends. They did not dare to discredit the security forces, but just said that it was the end of the world and the rules had become a piece of waste paper. The strong should form their own team and there was no need to rely on others. It would be unpleasant to have a group of younger brothers serving you and a lot of beautiful women throwing themselves at you.

After he said this, many people agreed with him, and even many survivors had begun to fantasize about the scene of "holding power in the world when awake and lying on the lap of a beauty when drunk".

But the funny thing is that when Wang Tao was about to go back after a busy day, he suddenly got the news that the camp of this group of people was attacked by zombies. A very strong zombie destroyed their gate, and other zombies rushed in. Even though their boss had super powers, he couldn't stop the attack of the zombies. He couldn't even withstand three punches from the zombies, and his head was smashed. The gushing brains were drunk by the zombies as a drink.

When Wang Tao flew over, the forty or so survivors here had been wiped out by zombies, and only some bones were left.

"One lord zombie, a dozen elite zombies, and a large number of ordinary zombies..."

After making sure that there was no stronger existence, Wang Tao rushed down directly.

After a while, all the zombies here fell down, and no one was left alive.

When Wang Tao was packing up his spoils, he was pleasantly surprised to find that he had enough crystal cores for what he needed!

So Wang Tao immediately synthesized the crystal cores he needed and obtained a large number of crystal cores without any side effects.

Wang Tao swallowed the crystal cores he needed one by one. When he felt that he was almost done, he suddenly found that his body was lighter, but full of strength, as if he could kill a first-level lord zombie with one punch...

"Finally promoted to the second level!"

Looking at his attributes, Wang Tao grinned.

Just two and a half days after being promoted to the first level, he was successfully promoted to the second level.
