Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 893 - 351 Out of the City Again

"Cave..."

Hearing Qu Shilin’s words, Wang Tao suddenly realized.

No wonder the Night Demon Heart was selling so expensively, there was demand after all! That made sense!

"Where is the cave? How can we get there? Do you know?"

Wang Tao asked again.

"Uh... I’m not really sure where exactly the cave is, because it is kept secret by those forces that discovered it. I only know about it because of my special work, and I thought you were one of the forces who discovered the cave, especially since you have always been out there... But if you haven’t discovered the cave, you might not be able to go, as it’s sort of their private territory.

They keep it secret because they don’t want others sharing in the bounty..."

"I see! I really didn’t know about this, thanks!"

Wang Tao said suddenly.

"Hey! We are friends! Oh, and you mustn’t say I told you, okay? Although I didn’t sign any confidentiality agreement, it still feels wrong to talk about it..."

Qu Shilin hurriedly added.

"Don’t worry, I definitely won’t tell. As for the Night Demon Heart matter, I suggest selling it off. The prices are very high right now, and the usefulness of the Night Demon Type 1 is limited. Even if you want to study it, you can always do that later when the prices drop..."

As he was speaking, Wang Tao suddenly seemed to remember something.

"However, don’t be in a hurry to sell; I also have some Night Demon Hearts. Let’s pool them together and see if we can get a good price! I’ll come see you this afternoon!"

Since the Night Demon Heart was indeed so expensive, Wang Tao decided to deal with the hearts he had. Not talking millions, but three hundred thousand was not a loss, and five hundred thousand was a pure gain. That was enough for him.

"Alright, I’ll be waiting for you!"

After hanging up with Qu Shilin, Wang Tao immediately contacted Cheng Yiyi.

"Consultant Wang, this is Cheng Yiyi."

Hearing the address through the phone, Wang Tao was still not used to it.

He paused for a moment, then spoke:

"Commandor Cheng, what are you up to? Are you busy?"

"Not busy. It’s almost New Year, and I plan to let our legion rest and recuperate, to fight again next year."

Cheng Yiyi spoke in a relaxed tone. She had been busy for most of the half year since the apocalypse began, and this was somewhat of a holiday for her.

"Do you know about the cave?"

Wang Tao suddenly asked.

"Cave? What cave?"

Cheng Yiyi was utterly confused.

Wang Tao immediately understood. Cheng Yiyi really didn’t know. If she did, she likely would have told him.

Thus, Wang Tao briefly explained the situation with the cave, but he said he heard about it accidentally from the Ability User Market.

"What? There’s such a place!"

After hearing Wang Tao’s explanation, Cheng Yiyi spoke in a very surprised tone. Then she quickly added:

"Hold on, let me inquire about what exactly is going on. If it’s true, our Sixth Army Corps must be involved!"

Cheng Yiyi spoke resolutely.

If she hadn’t known about this, it would be one thing, but now that she did, she absolutely needed to compete for it, even if it meant being shameless! In this apocalyptic world, everyone was racing against time, either advance or retreat. If others’ strength increased while they remained stagnant, they would be eliminated in the future. Broadly speaking, it was a matter of survival!

"Good, I’ll wait for your good news!"

After hanging up, Wang Tao nodded to himself.

He had shared this news with Cheng Yiyi precisely to let her find out exactly what was going on, since being with the Sixth Army Corps, she had much easier access than their small Starfire Society.

"Brother, should we change our plans?"

Jiang Shixue asked from nearby.

Wang Tao had not hidden the matters and everyone had heard about the cave.

Wang Tao shook his head.

"Hard to say, let’s see what happens on Cheng Yiyi’s end. Anyway, our schedule is flexible, at most the information we bought earlier becomes outdated, but that didn’t cost much, so no big deal."

An hour later, Cheng Yiyi called again.

"Consultant Wang, I’ve found out everything. There indeed is a cave, and there are some good things inside, but there are also many aggressive plants and animals, making it very dangerous. The location is jointly owned and was discovered by several major forces, including the Fourth Army Corps.

They all signed confidentiality agreements, so they don’t disclose it and don’t allow others to be involved. However, after my efforts, our Sixth Corps can participate as well. It is scheduled ten days from now; I’ll notify you then..."

Listening to Cheng Yiyi’s excited tone, Wang Tao’s face immediately showed a smile. Cheng Yiyi had not let him down, and he suspected she had traded some favors. However, if there really were good things in the cave, Wang Tao would make sure she didn’t end up at a loss.

"Okay! Just notify me before you set out. I need to make a trip out soon, but it’s just for a few days, I should be back in time."

"Alright! Be careful out there!"

After ending the call, Wang Tao spoke to the others:

"I’m going to the Hope Research Institute, then our plan remains unchanged; we leave tomorrow, and we’ll be back just in time for the event."

"Alright!"

The others nodded.

…

Wang Tao visited the Hope Research Institute again.

For some reason, Qu Shilin’s right arm was in a cast and suspended. Her HP was also dangerously low.
