Chapter 337: The Fruit Ripens_2
The items were indeed valuable, but Wang Tao planned to carefully research what Crystal Core to inlay after returning to the city this time.
The knife he was holding was quite remarkable and was worthy of being inlaid. Additionally, the gear he was wearing also had slots for inlaying, which should not be wasted.
The last Loot Pack contained a Blueprint, but this time there was only one.
[Acquired: Giant Slayer Ring Blueprint x1]
He already had one of these rings because he had worn it during his previous battle with the Giant Zombie.
When attacking a Giant Zombie, it could increase the damage he dealt by 10%, and when attacked by a Giant Zombie, it could reduce the damage he received from the Giant Zombie by 10%.
But to be honest, whether the ring had triggered during the previous battle was uncertain to Wang Tao.
Since he had used the Beetle Armor and was unable to use Awakening or Ability, whether the ring's increased damage could trigger was debatable, and he had no time to test it at that moment...
After crafting the ring, Wang Tao suddenly thought of a question—could he trigger the effects of two Giant Slayer Rings at the same time if he wore both?
Upon putting on both Giant Slayer Rings, Wang Tao felt nothing, nor did any prompt appear.
Wang Tao felt there probably wasn't such a bug, but he couldn't rest without trying it out.
"I'll find an opportunity to test it in the future..." Wang Tao thought quietly to himself.
...
It was already noon, and still no zombies or monsters had come.
Ding Yuqin cooked some food, and Wang Tao and his companions had a simple meal.
At that moment, Wang Tao seemed to sense something and suddenly looked towards the cave of the Giant Serpent.
"Another Night Demon has appeared. You guys continue to stay here; I'll take a look!"
"Okay!"
Wang Tao immediately rushed into the cave.
He had used Night Demon Parasite Pupa to infect 10 zombies the previous day. After the appearance of two Night Demons on the first day, there had been no activity from the remaining zombies until today.
Wang Tao thought the parasitism rate might only be around 20%, but now there was new noise!
He rushed deep into the cave and instantly saw a white Bone Armored Night Demon.
Seeing its Attributes, Wang Tao's expression darkened.
He had hoped for a Lord Night Demon to appear, but it turned out to be an Elite, which was a bit of a letdown.
After all, the loot dropped by an Elite Night Demon was rather disappointing, and Wang Tao felt almost too lazy to engage.
Therefore, Wang Tao took out three Night Demon Hearts and, in the blink of an eye, they turned into three pure Black Night Demons!
Roar—
Under Wang Tao's command, the Night Demon Type I immediately charged towards the Fourth Order Elite Night Demon.

When the Elite Night Demon saw Wang Tao come in, it bared its teeth and prepared to attack, but was confused by the sudden appearance of three very different kin that were also about to attack it.
Its reaction was a fraction slow, and it was instantly suppressed and beaten by the three Night Demon Type I.
Even though the Elite Night Demon had 100,000 HP and each Night Demon Type I only had 10,000 HP, it was still a three-on-one fight, and the strength of the Night Demon Type I was not to be underestimated. The Elite Night Demon quickly came under heavy pressure. It wanted to flee, but the escape route was blocked, leaving no chance to get away.
Watching the Elite Night Demon get thrashed, Wang Tao first nodded silently, then felt a bit helpless.
The [Night Demon Type I] was actually quite good, but for Wang Tao at the moment, its role was somewhat awkward.
Wang Tao rarely fought at night since zombies had home advantage and even though he was strong, he still needed to be cautious. Besides, [Night Demon Type I] could not be used during the day.
If forced to fight at night, it was likely to encounter Night Demons. During combat with a Night Demon, he would inevitably use ultraviolet tools, which worked exceptionally well against them. Especially the Large Ultraviolet Illumination Bomb, it was like an artificial mini-sun, able both to suppress Night Demons and illuminate the battlefield, which was very convenient.
But ultraviolet light would also suppress [Night Demon Type I], after all, they were also Night Demons by nature.
So [Night Demon Type I] was in an awkward position—useless during the day and unusable at night.
Adding the one from yesterday, Wang Tao had exactly ten [Night Demon Type I], but other than using it for testing, he rarely used it in normal combat. In fact, the Night Demon Type I wasn't even used as frequently as the Bloody Chainsaw, which was only for specific situations...
Pfft—
As Wang Tao pondered, the Fourth Order Elite Night Demon was killed by the [Night Demon Type I].
"Huh?"
But to his surprise, this Fourth Order Elite Night Demon actually dropped a Loot Pack.
"Things killed by [Night Demon Type I] are considered as killed by me? That's quite interesting..."
Wang Tao had not noticed this before, as he had also sent [Night Demon Type I] to attack Ordinary Zombies, but never stared at the [Night Demon Type I]; if there were any Loot Packs, he probably assumed they were from his own kills.
But thinking about it, it did seem reasonable. After all, [Night Demon Type I] was bound to him, and even using Beetle Armor to kill zombies could earn him Loot Packs, so it was not exceptional for these independently attacking Night Demons to drop Loot Packs.
What if he gathered a group of [Night Demon Type I] to specifically hunt zombies at night?
Now that zombies all had Crystal Cores and the strength of [Night Demon Type I] was not weak, it shouldn't be difficult to kill these Ordinary and Elite Zombies.
