Chapter 540: Chapter 231 Level 3 Ascension_1

After dinner, only Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue were left in the house.
Wang Tao stroked Jiang Shixue’s hair while looking at the Entangled Iron Tree Roots on his wrist.
[Level 3 Weapon·Entangled Iron Tree Roots]
[HP: 100000/100000]
[Status: Awakened]
[Enhancement: HP, Attack, Defense, Fire Resistance]
[Compatibility: 100%]
All his effort had not been in vain; he finally reached 100,000 HP!
Adding Wang Tao’s own 30,000 HP, that meant he had a total of 130,000 HP!
“Now I can pretty much undergo Level 3 Ascension… After Level 3, it’s time to visit that… old friend!”
Wang Tao muttered softly.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He had not forgotten the Fourth-order Monster he had encountered before, the one with 100,000 HP.
At Level Two, he had almost no power to resist. If he ascended to Level 3, and added the 100,000 HP of the Entangled Iron Tree Roots, and brought other Level 3 Ability Users with him, would they possibly stand a chance in battle?
Now that Lan Yulian had become his woman, he planned to see if he could help her eliminate this hidden threat before he left.
“Hum——”
Suddenly, a familiar buzzing sound came from outside.
“Huh? An airdrop is coming!”
Wang Tao immediately ran out with Jiang Shixue, spotting a small black dot in the sky.
“The frequency of airdrops has been pretty high lately. It hasn’t been many days since the last one… Come on, let’s go check it out!”
By looking at the direction in which the plane was flying, it was apparent that it did not pass over the base.
Lan Yulian, upon hearing the sound, had already started organizing people to retrieve the airdrop.
After she invited the other survivors of Zijing City to the base, they benefited from a great advantage—no one was competing with them for airdrops anymore.
“Wang Tao, are you going out too?”
Lan Yulian asked, approaching Wang Tao.
“Yeah, I’m going to call for another airdrop.”
Wang Tao said with a smile.
Lan Yulian immediately thought of the last time when Wang Tao had the airdrop directly above their heads and her eyes lit up. Then, like a little girl, she wrapped her arms around Wang Tao’s and twisted.
“Wang Tao~ I want to know how you do it!”
Lu Yingfeng turned her head away; she had grown tired of Lan Yulian’s coquettish act. However, she also pricked up her ears to listen.
“Haha, because I know a pilot—suppose it counts as knowing him. After I contacted him through the walkie-talkie, he carried out the airdrop.”
“Ah?”
Both women were somewhat stunned.
They were surprised that he knew a pilot, and even more so that he could contact one.
Excitement then burgeoned within them; after all, if they could keep in touch with a pilot and have airdrops sent directly to them, wouldn’t that be fantastic?
“Forget about it.”
Wang Tao probably knew what the two women were thinking and shook his head.
“These pilots seem to have their mission. They won’t stay long, so I can only contact them briefly. And I’m not that close with him. The airdrop happened because he did me a favor. If he hadn’t obliged, there would’ve been nothing I could do. Besides, I’m not even sure if the pilot on this flight is the one I know…”
“Is that so… Well, that’s still pretty amazing! Go on and contact him then; I hope you’ll be able to get through. I’ll have everyone else cooperate with you…”
Lan Yulian was slightly disappointed, but quickly shook her head. What’s meant to be yours will come to you; what’s not, won’t, regardless of how much you try.
“Alright. I’m going out now.”
Wang Tao nodded.
“Have Little Feng go with you.”
“Okay.”
Lu Yingfeng drove a vehicle, taking Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue and leaving the base.
Nie Siyan and Xu Xiaojun had gone out to hunt zombies in the morning and were still outside.
The plane’s flight path was slightly off, but Lu Yingfeng was very familiar with Zijing City. Before the plane arrived, she was already waiting on its anticipated flight path.
Wang Tao took out his walkie-talkie and started trying to contact the pilot.
“Colonel Luo, this is Wang Tao, I’m at…”
“Colonel Luo…”
“Sizzle… sizzle…”
Unable to make contact for the moment, Xu Xiaojun and Nie Siyan also arrived, and everyone gathered together.
“Looks like my luck isn’t very good today. Either I can’t make contact, or it’s not Colonel Luo Guozhong that I know…”
Watching the plane draw closer, Wang Tao shrugged his shoulders in resignation.
Normally, at this distance, he should have been able to make contact, but there had been no response, and it was unclear what the issue was.
“It’s fine, if there’s an airdrop, we can just pick it up ourselves,”
Lu Yingfeng consoled him.
Wang Tao nodded but persisted in trying.
“Colonel Luo, this is Wang Tao, I’m at…”
“Sizzle… sizzle…”
But as the plane flew over their heads, there was still no reply from the other side.
Wang Tao and the others felt a bit disappointed, both for not making contact with the pilot and for the fact that the plane had flown all this way without dropping any airdrops. Could it be that there wouldn’t be any airdrops this time?
Just then, Jiang Shixue, who had been intently watching the plane, suddenly tugged at Wang Tao’s sleeve.
“Brother, look.”
Hm?
Everyone quickly looked up.
They saw that the plane which had just flown over their heads began dropping airdrops, and it wasn’t just one but many airdrops falling at the same time!
“He got my message!”
Wang Tao was suddenly surprised.
The fact that so many airdrops were dropped at once clearly wasn’t a matter of sheer luck; he had indeed made contact with the pilot.
As for the lack of replies, maybe there was a malfunction with the walkie-talkie on the plane, which only allowed it to receive and not transmit. Or perhaps, there was some other reason. Either way, Wang Tao was sure he had made contact, and it was most likely Colonel Luo!
