Chapter 525: Chapter 226 Let Him Stay_1

“`

“Oh? Any other conditions I can freely propose?”

Wang Tao raised an eyebrow.

The women didn’t speak; they all watched Wang Tao with faces full of tension and excitement.

They really wanted the Level 3 Ascension Crystal Cores, but since they were unsure of Wang Tao’s specific intentions, they dared not accept easily.

They wanted Wang Tao to clarify his terms—they would agree to anything except betraying their leader!

Wang Tao appraised the eight women carelessly. Some were quite shy, not daring to look Wang Tao in the eye, while others were bold enough to thrust out their chests and hold their heads high, presenting their most magnificent features to him.

Wang Tao suddenly thought it would be quite interesting to have a personal guard of powerful and beautiful women like these.

But after all, they were Lan Yulian’s people, and Wang Tao wasn’t about to commit the offense of seizing them for himself.

“You’re overthinking it. What do you think you could possibly offer me? Or rather, what do you think I want from you?”

“…”

This remark from Wang Tao was rather blunt, but it seemed not without reason. He was far stronger than they were, had many Crystal Cores, and was already accompanied by two beauties, a young one and an older one. There wasn’t much they had that could interest Wang Tao…

“Just choose one of the options. Either way, it will be on your leader Lan Yulian’s tab.”

Wang Tao said with a smile.

These Crystal Cores weren’t given for free; at the very least, he would have to reel in profits several times over.

Though for him, synthesizing high-quality Ascension Crystal Cores was a trivial matter, costing only a few ordinary Ascension Crystal Cores. After leading his team to kill so many Level 3 zombies, bursting forth with numerous Level 3 Ascension Crystal Cores, he wasn’t running short.

However, the value of this Crystal Core was obvious to others. Definitely not something to be given away for free.

“…We choose option two!”

The women spoke up simultaneously.

“Very well.”

Wang Tao handed over the Crystal Cores to them.

“Thank you, Mr. Wang!”

After the emotional women left with gratitude, Wang Tao had Nie Siyan call in six others from two minor powers.

Among these six, besides their own two leaders who were Level Two, the other four subordinates were still Level 1.

Wang Tao took out Crystal Cores again, offering them the chance to ascend from Level 1 to Level 2, and from Level 2 to Level 3.

But this time, it wasn’t without demands; Wang Tao wanted them to lead their own subordinates into the Firefly Club.

Yet for them, this wasn’t a demand; it was an opportunity!

The two leaders mused internally that this was the advantage of siding with the right team!

Before their arrival, they couldn’t have imagined they would have the chance to ascend to Level 3 and join the Firefly Club!

This further solidified their belief that they had to clutch onto the big leg!

Once these grateful people left, the building quieted down immediately.

They all went to fuse with the Ascension Crystal Cores.

In half a day, there would be 15 Level 3 ability users emerging here!

Adding the original few, there would be almost 20 Level 3 ability users!

The rescue mission could not be said to be foolproof, but the success rate had undoubtedly increased by countless times compared to before!

In the afternoon, those fusing with the Crystal Cores began to wake up one after another.

Having fused with only a Crystal Core, their ascension didn’t take long; 6 hours were sufficient.

“Mr. Wang!”

These people came to Wang Tao as soon as they completed their ascensions.

“Well done, well done!”

With 15 new Level 3 ability users, plus Xu Xiaojun and Nie Siyan, that was 17, and with Lu Yingfeng’s return, it would be 18! If one included Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue, who hadn’t ascended to Level 3 but possessed the combat power of Level 3, that made 20. Finally, adding a healer… with such power, it wasn’t just about rescuing anymore; Wang Tao even harbored the thought of hunting down all the zombies here!

However, it was just a fleeting thought for Wang Tao, as these newly ascended Level 3 ability users weren’t as strong as Nie Siyan, Xu Xiaojun, and the like. It would still be very dangerous to take on so many zombies head-on.

Of course, if they eliminated the zombies slowly, perhaps they could indeed clear out this place. But if they really did that, the group at the diving pool would probably starve to death before the zombies got to them.

At that moment, Wang Tao’s walkie-talkie suddenly rang.

“Wang Tao, this is Lan Yulian, can you hear me? I’ll reach the building in another hour!”

It was Lan Yulian’s voice on the walkie-talkie this time.

“This is Wang Tao, received, we are waiting for you.”

“Great!”

It wasn’t even an hour before Lan Yulian returned.

When she left, it was with Lu Yingfeng, but now she came back leading a group of over thirty Level Two ability users!

Mostly comprised of generals, prison heads, and Kong Xiu’s people. These were the elite forces and the trump cards of their factions.

“Wang Tao, I’ve brought reinforcements!”

Upon seeing Wang Tao, Lan Yulian quickly approached, with Lu Yingfeng following close by.

“Yes, not bad at all.”

Wang Tao nodded after sizing up the group.

The group also secretly assessed Wang Tao. They weren’t clear about Wang Tao’s strength, but Lan Yulian’s attitude indicated that Wang Tao must be formidable.

Yet after observing for a while, they didn’t think Wang Tao seemed all that formidable—just possibly a Level Two ability user. But why was Lu Yingfeng so courteous to him? After all, Lu Yingfeng was now one of the few Level 3 ability users!

Unaware of their thoughts, Wang Tao said to Lan Yulian:

“Are these people reliable? I don’t want any accidents during the rescue.”

“I picked them based on the list given by their leaders. They are all valued by their leaders, so they should be relatively dependable…”
