Wang Tao combined all the Tier 6 Basic Crystal Cores in his possession into 100% pure Orange Crystal Cores, then fused them one by one. When only the last Crystal Core remained, he temporarily stopped.
"Once the survivors of Red Maple Base have all been safely transferred to Long River Base, I'll advance to Tier 7..."
Advancing required sleep. Wang Tao was worried that an accident might occur during the transfer while he was advancing. There were hundreds of thousands of survivors—he couldn't afford to be careless.
When Wang Tao returned to Red Maple Base, he happened to see Long River Base's Flying Mutant Beasts landing one after another. The military at Red Maple Base immediately began loading the prepared supplies and people onto the Flying Mutant Beasts in an orderly fashion... The migration of hundreds of thousands had begun.
"Wang Tao? Why are you here?"
Wei Zhenguo had been directing the operation when he suddenly noticed Wang Tao appear beside him. He was instantly surprised. Han Rui and the others also spotted Wang Tao and hurried over.
"I've temporarily finished what I was doing. I happened to be nearby, so I came to see whether you needed any help."
Wang Tao asked with a smile.
"Then you can help us out—wait? You said you finished what you were doing?"
Wei Zhenguo suddenly widened his eyes. The others also stared at Wang Tao in shock.
Wang Tao's main task during this trip had been collecting the Basic Crystal Cores needed to advance to Tier 7. If he said he was done, didn't that mean he had enough Crystal Cores and could advance to Tier 7?
Wang Tao saw what they were thinking. He merely smiled without explaining.
"Whew—damn!"
Wei Zhenguo let out a long breath, though he was still excited.
