Chapter 514: Chapter 222 What Do You Know I Want_2
“Wang Tao, thank you! Without you, who knows when Little Feng would have reached Level 3…”
Although the Crystal Cores that Wang Tao provided her were bought or obtained on credit, it seemed like a fair trade. But at this point in time, the Crystal Cores in Wang Tao’s hands were priceless. If Wang Tao was willing to sell them to her, that alone would be a huge favor! Not to mention that Wang Tao was even willing to let her buy on credit…
Wang Tao was so good to her that she felt it was almost surreal. She had thought it was natural for Wang Tao to have an interest in her.
However, the moment she recalled Wang Tao saying that he liked both her and Lu Yingfeng, Lan Yulian felt her face inexplicably flush. She wanted to know if Wang Tao was just kidding…
“We’re friends, no need for thanks,”
Wang Tao said generously with a wave of his hand.
Since he could synthesize Crystal Cores, these high-quality ones were no trouble for him at all. Moreover, the price he sold to Lan Yulian wasn’t cheap; essentially, for every Crystal Core he sold her, Wang Tao could earn more than two of the same Quality and Level.
Even if Lan Yulian couldn’t pay off the debt, Wang Tao was still making a killing.
Of course, it wasn’t possible that she couldn’t pay him back, she thought, once she had control over the entire base, she would make sure to settle Wang Tao’s account first!
Lan Yulian was unaware of Wang Tao’s thoughts, and seeing his magnanimity made her heart surge with even more appreciation.
Apart from her relatives, she had never felt such kindness from a stranger — no, they weren’t strangers now, they were close friends!
“Ahem, don’t you wonder why I kept trying to get you to join us?”
Lan Yulian suddenly said. She was no longer willing to keep secrets from Wang Tao since they were now good friends; there was no need to hide things.
“Oh? Do tell,”
Wang Tao was genuinely curious.
If Lan Yulian hadn’t brought it up, he would have almost forgotten about it.
“We previously obtained a type of Crystal Core, which is quite powerful, it seems to be able to rapidly recover one’s own energy!”
“Rapidly recover one’s own energy?”
Wang Tao was astonished!
If it was as Lan Yulian stated, then this Crystal Core was indeed impressive!
Nowadays, replenishing HP was nothing special; whether it was Abilities or medicine, Wang Tao had them. But he had never seen anything that could restore Mana.
If Ability Users were likened to a gun, then Mana could roughly be equated to ammunition!
If you had enough ammo and it never ran out, you’d almost be unbeatable!
Although Wang Tao had nearly twenty thousand Mana, his Abilities also consumed a lot of it. Therefore, if he got involved in a prolonged battle, he could not be sure of the outcome.
If he could obtain an Ability that could rapidly — no, even slowly — restore Mana, as long as it was faster than the natural recovery rate, that would be a huge enhancement for Wang Tao!
Seeing Wang Tao’s greatly interested expression, Lan Yulian couldn’t help but feel a small sense of pride. Aside from this Crystal Core, she had never seen any Ability that could restore energy, so she knew the value of this Core.
If it were before, she definitely wouldn’t dare to tell Wang Tao. After all, it was her secret weapon. If other powers were to learn of it, it might cause some trouble.
But now that Wang Tao had given her so many good things, even helping Lu Yingfeng to reach Level 3, the value of those things certainly surpassed the worth of that Crystal Core. Therefore, being open and honest with him was no problem. Moreover, they were about to have a Level 3 ability user in their ranks, so what was there to be afraid of in terms of trouble?
Yet Lan Yulian shook her head somewhat helplessly and said:
“But, this Crystal Core can only be fused by males. I’ve done experiments, and all attempts to fuse by us females failed…”
“Only males can fuse it?”
This reminded Wang Tao of the Perception Crystal Cores, which, while not limited to females, reduced the effectiveness by half for males, effectively making no difference…
“Yes, only males can fuse it. And this Crystal Core seems to devour an Ability upon successful fusion, so even if you have four Abilities, you could still fuse this Core. This was also a main reason why I invited you to join our facility department. Because Zhang Hong said you’re a good person, I trust her judgment, and I think you’re capable of fusing with this Core…”
“I see.”
Wang Tao finally understood.
He thought it strange — why was Lan Yulian so adamant about him joining their facility? It turned out to be for this reason. But this Crystal Core seemed quite intriguing, being able to consume other Cores…
“Now, I don’t have much with which to thank you. So, I’ve decided to give you this Crystal Core. However, it’s hidden within the Vast Base right now, so I can’t give it to you just yet. Once we’re back, I’ll personally deliver the Core to you!”
Lan Yulian declared earnestly.
“Alright!”
Wang Tao didn’t stand on ceremony. He was also curious about what kind of Core it was. If it was really good, he planned to fuse it himself.
If he could both replenish Mana and HP, wouldn’t that be amazing?
Moreover, he had obtained quite a few Rejuvenation Crystal Cores from the hospital in Shuize County, which used Mana to recover physical strength and spirit!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
If he could learn all three abilities… wouldn’t he become like a perpetual motion machine?
Wang Tao fantasized a bit YY.
But as for the specifics, he would have to wait until he saw the Crystal Core. If the requirements for Mana recovery were too stringent, or there were some unavoidable side effects, then he’d have to think about it in the long term…
