Apocalypse: I Can See the Health Bar, Kill Monsters and Drop Treasures Chapter 253

Chapter 253 Methods of promotion

 The next day.

Wang Tao led everyone to continue cleaning up the zombies, and this time he joined He Jijun.

 After being promoted to the second level, He Jijun's strength naturally improved greatly.

But what surprised Wang Tao was that He Jijun was really good at shooting. He could even make the bullet turn slightly through precise calculations!

This reminded Wang Tao of a joke he had seen online before - gun fighting!

 He Jijun really has this ability!

Wang Tao had to admit that there was a big gap between him and He Jijun in terms of precision shooting ability. He is worthy of being the King of Soldiers!

He Jijun even wanted to bend the arrow, but this was much more difficult than the bullet, and he had not yet succeeded. But it's not without its rewards, he can shoot in the air and hit zombies in a parabolic motion.

This looks a bit fancy, but it is actually very useful, such as performing decapitation operations or attacking over obstacles...

 It can only be said that Wang Tao is looking forward to what level He Jijun will reach after he becomes more and more familiar with supernatural powers.

There were a lot of zombies outside the base. This time, Wang Tao and the others spent a whole day cleaning up the zombies around them and blocking all the base gates, including the two previous cars.

 There may be zombies coming in the future, but at least there are no zombies now, and it feels much more comfortable to watch.

Wang Tao specially gave the heads of some level 3 zombies to He Jijun, and He Jijun's health reached 29999!

 “Can I be promoted to the third level now?”

He Jijun was a little confused.

 Although when he killed zombies today, he did feel that his strength had been slowly improving, but he had only been promoted to the second level!

 It only took him two days to advance from the first level to the second level, one of which he was still sleeping. It's only been a day now, and he has been promoted to the third level again?

“To be precise, it's not even close, because your power level is not enough. You need to upgrade your power level, and by the way, strip off the running ability you previously fused..."

He Jijun has a strong mental ability, and Wang Tao felt that he should be given a mental ability to give full play to his strengths. But the crystal cores related to mental power in Wang Tao's hands all started at the second level. So Wang Tao discussed with He Jijun and asked him to fuse a "running" first.

 Now that he is at level 2, this running can naturally be separated.

Wang Tao took out some crystal cores for He Jijun to choose. To Wang Tao's surprise, He Jijun chose a "spiritual amplification".

 【Spiritual Amplification: During the duration, it can increase mental power, making people more focused and less likely to be disturbed by the outside world】

This ability is relatively useless in the eyes of many people, but Wang Tao himself has integrated one because it is a good thing to resist illusions.

He Jijun wanted to integrate this, not because he encountered an illusion, but because he felt that this could increase precision shooting!

 If nothing else, this makes people more focused and less likely to be distracted by the outside world. Isn't this what allows you to concentrate on shooting?

 In addition, improving some mental strength should also be helpful in shooting.

Wang Tao felt that what He Jijun said made sense, so he gave him the crystal core. Anyway, Wang Tao still has a lot of second-order peeling crystal cores in his hand. Even if this ability is not as good as He Jijun imagined, he can just peel them off again.

 Soon, He Jijun peeled off "running" and integrated this "spiritual amplification".

He Jijun gave it a try. While turning on precision shooting, he also turned on mental amplification, which indeed improved his shooting ability - now he is a serious gunfighter!

"powerful!"

Wang Tao and others were amazed when they saw He Jijun holding two pistols at the indoor shooting range. He could hit various targets with his eyes closed, and he could also bend bullets.

If you don't consider that the sound of gunfire will attract a large number of zombies, everyone feels that the lethality that He Jijun can cause will definitely be very terrifying.

Although some zombies can block bullets, the bullets fired by He Jijun can bend!

 No matter how tough the zombies are, they will have weaknesses, such as eyes. He Jijun can find those weaknesses and attack them!

Of course, if you really want to encounter zombies that have no weaknesses or have abnormal defenses, it's hard to say whether He Jijun will be able to do it.

 At any rate, He Jijun is still very strong!

After confirming that this ability could indeed improve He Jijun, Wang Tao took out some other crystal nuclei that He Jijun had fused and some all-purpose crystal nuclei.

 It took some time for He Jijun to integrate everything. All four of his abilities are level 2 +10. Then Wang Tao took out four third-level promotion crystal cores.

 “Thank you!”

Looking at Wang Tao giving these crystal nuclei to himself as if they were free of charge, He Jijun said he was not impressed. He was lying. When Wang Tao recruited him to join the team, he did not tell him that there was such a benefit.

However, He Jijun didn't say much. Real men will express their gratitude through actions.

 “Haha, we are all our own people, why are you so polite!”

Wang Tao smiled, and then said seriously.

“After Lao He is promoted to level three, we will go to the city to see if we can find a level four zombie to try...”

"no problem!"

He Jijun immediately fused these four third-level promotion crystal cores.

 After a moment, he successfully succeeded. He Jijun didn't waste any time and immediately prepared to start promotion.

 By this time tomorrow, he will be a third-level superpower user!

 After He Jijun fell asleep, Wang Tao looked at the others. Except for Jiang Shixue's blood volume, which did not increase, everyone else's blood volume increased a lot.

Xu Xiaojun has 70,000 blood, Yang Changhong has 70,000 blood, and Nie Siyan has 60,000 blood. They are very close to one hundred thousand blood.

And their crystal nuclei are relatively easy to find, and they are also somewhat fused.

Wang Tao estimated that by the time they reach 100,000 health, their abilities should all be +10.

“The surrounding zombies have been dealt with. Everyone should have a good rest these two days to recharge their batteries.”

Wang Tao said to the three of them:

"good!"

 Everyone nodded.

Wang Tao returned to the room with Jiang Shixue and Ling Ling.

However, he was not in a hurry to sleep. After all, everyone's strength was improving, and he had to improve too!

There are many zombies inside and outside the military base. Together with the zombies killed on the road and the crystal cores provided by He Jijun and Luo Guozhong, Wang Tao now has a large number of crystal cores in his hand.

 And many of these crystal nuclei can be used by him.

Of Wang Tao's current four abilities, only [Frenzy Amplification] is +10, and the remaining three are all +1. This was because Wang Tao was trying to synthesize special abilities, so he didn't upgrade.

 Now, his yin and yang harmony can be synthesized!

 Yin-Yang reconciliation is a mental ability. Wang Tao previously integrated a perception, and now he can also integrate two other abilities. Wang Tao chose [Psychic Shock] and [Psychic Defense].

　　【Psychic Shock: Consume energy, turn your mental energy into several colorless and invisible needles and shoot them out. If there are obstacles on the way, the power will be reduced】

  【Psychic Defense: Passive ability, increase mental defense】

He had these two kinds of crystal nuclei when he was in Bauhinia City, but he had never been able to gather three to synthesize them. Now that he finally had enough, Wang Tao immediately synthesized two epic crystal nuclei.

Wang Tao first extracted [Integration] and then fused a [Psychic Shock]. The success rate between it and [Yin-Yang Harmony] is 91%. A little low, but no big deal.

 Very smoothly, this mental shock ability and the harmony of yin and yang were successfully synthesized.

Then Wang Tao melted another [Spiritual Defense]. The success rate of harmonizing this crystal core with Yin and Yang was as high as 98%.

As expected, this ability was successfully synthesized.

 At this point, Wang Tao's yin-yang coordination ability has been synthesized to the upper limit, and new abilities have appeared!

[Third-level superpower·Yin-Yang reconciliation: can sense surrounding things, can slightly affect the spirit of creatures, can make creatures mentally unstable, can launch mental shocks, can increase mental defense, can open a barrier that can block mental attacks, When fighting Wushan Yunyu of the opposite sex, both parties' mana will be replenished quickly, and the user's mana will be permanently increased by a certain amount. There is a cooldown time for permanently increasing mana, and the cooldown time is random. (Side effects: none)】

The name remains the same, but the attributes are greatly increased!

"not bad!"

Wang Tao nodded with satisfaction, now this ability can also be upgraded to +10. But don't worry, Wang Tao took another look at his ability to make an iron wall.

This is a continuous ability that can add various states to Wang Tao. If we use the game as an analogy, it is similar to a buff skill.

Now Wang Tao happens to have such a crystal nucleus in his hand.

 【Physique increase: During the duration, physical fitness will be improved in all aspects】

The first physique-increasing crystal core that Wang Tao got was from a ghost claw zombie, the second was from a zombie dog, and the third was from the crystal core left by Luo Guozhong. Just enough to synthesize an epic crystal core.

 After Wang Tao fused this crystal nucleus, it was shown that the probability of combining it with an iron wall was 94%! There's nothing to say, just synthesize it directly.

 After a while, the fusion was successful. The name of the Iron Wall ability has not changed, but there is an introduction to the physical increase in the entry.

The Iron Wall can be synthesized two more times. Wang Tao already has a target, which is the crystal core [Extreme Speed] exploded by the Zombie Dog.

However, there is currently only one such crystal core, and it will take some time to save it.

As for the last synthesized crystal core...Wang Tao suddenly thought of precision shooting.

 He likes the ability of precision shooting very much, but the success rate of synthesizing the precision shooting ability with other abilities is not high. So Wang Tao never synthesized it.

 But now he has a lot of precision shooting abilities in his hand, can he take advantage of them?

After all, he can put Precision Shot in the secondary ability position. Even if the synthesis fails, he will only lose one Precision Shot ability, which he can afford to lose.

Thinking of this, Wang Tao immediately fused the precision shooting core extracted before, but it was of the second level. Wang Tao used another promotion core to upgrade it to the third level. Then Wang Tao looked at the probability of successful integration of precision shooting and other abilities.

 【Accurate shooting + Iron wall = 35%】

 【Accurate shooting + Yin and Yang harmony = 7%】

 The fusion ability has been extracted, and the rage increase has been integrated to the upper limit. Therefore, you can only choose between Copper Wall and Iron Wall and Harmony of Yin and Yang, and the two success rates, without even thinking about it, can only be combined with Copper Wall and Iron Wall.

Wang Tao puts the Iron Wall in the main position, Precision Shooting in the secondary position, and then merges!

 A colorful light flashed...the synthesis failed, and the precision shooting ability disappeared.

Although Wang Tao was mentally prepared, this was his first synthesis failure, and he lost 30,000 special energy and a precision shooting ability, which was still a little distressing.

But it's not a big problem, let's continue synthesizing!

 The second time, the synthesis failed...

 The third time, the synthesis failed...

 Sixth time... If he fails again this time, the precise shooting core in his hand will not be enough.

 Fortunately, I finally succeeded this time!

 【Third-level superpower·Iron wall】

 【Iron Wall: During the duration, it can enhance defense, speed, spirit, physique, shooting and slowly recover certain injuries (side effects: none)】

If we can get two more speed crystal cores, then the copper wall and iron wall can be synthesized up to the upper limit of the third level!

 In other words, Wang Tao still lacks the ability to master it. This ability is an active attack ability. There is currently no suitable choice. Please pay more attention in the future...

 Finally, Wang Tao extracted the copper wall and iron wall and fused it with the all-powerful crystal core.

 He only has the violent increase and the reconciliation of yin and yang. The violent increase is already +10, and the omnipotent crystal core naturally acts on the reconciliation of yin and yang.

 Wang Tao does not have many third-order all-powerful crystal cores in his hand. After raising the Yin-Yang Harmony to +10, his third-order all-powerful crystal cores will be completely consumed.

 He now has two third-level abilities, both +10, which is one step closer to the fourth level!

 After confirming that there was no suitable ability for the time being, Wang Tao looked at Jiang Shixue.

Jiang Shixue had just been sitting quietly next to Wang Tao, petting the dog. When she felt Wang Tao's gaze, she turned her head to look at Wang Tao.

 "Xiaoxue, how can you level up..."

Wang Tao ruffled her hair.

"I have no idea."

Jiang Shixue shook her head.

"I had a vague guess before. After seeing the battle log of the military base this time, I feel that my guess...may be really possible..."

Wang Tao said suddenly.

Jiang Shixue looked at him with some doubts.

Wang Tao continued:

"Xiaoxue, your body is the same as that of a zombie. If a zombie wants to evolve, there are usually two methods, one is to rely on time, and the other is to rely on cannibalism! Relying on time, you have been here for so long, and you still have nothing. It's a sign of promotion, so I think…”

Hearing Wang Tao's explanation, Jiang Shixue understood and immediately shook her head.

“Brother, I have no desire to eat people, and I don't want to…”

If she eats people, then she is really no different from a zombie. She doesn't want to become a zombie!

“Silly girl, what are you thinking! Of course I can't let you eat people!”

Wang Tao knocked Jiang Shixue on the head, and then said.

 “But I think maybe I can drink some blood…”

"ah?"

Jiang Shixue was a little confused.

 “Want to try? I'll give you some blood!”

Wang Tao is a little eager to give it a try.

 He felt that his guess might be right!

Since Jiang Shixue's body is similar to that of a zombie, there is a high probability that she will evolve like a zombie!

“Brother, this is not good, you will be in pain...”

Jiang Shixue's face wrinkled.

 “Haha, don't worry, I have the ability to heal myself, it's not a big problem! Just wait!”

Wang Tao did what he said, he took out a bottle of nutrient solution, poured the nutrients inside to Lightning, and kept the empty bottle. Then Wang Tao took out a scalpel. Everything he took out from the space backpack was sterile and did not need to be sterilized.

Then Wang Tao took a scalpel and lightly cut his wrist.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ification

 A drop of blood fell into the bottle of nutrient solution, and then more blood flowed out.

Wang Tao didn't feel much pain. After all, the scalpel was very sharp, and he wasn't afraid of pain.

"elder brother…"

Seeing Wang Tao being so decisive, Jiang Shixue was at a loss. Lightning next to him tilted his head and looked at his master. He didn't understand what was wrong with his master.

Soon, this small bottle was filled with Wang Tao's blood.

 He immediately used the medical kit to stop the bleeding and activated the Iron Wall ability to restore his blood.

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the wound, Wang Tao handed the small bottle of still warm blood to Jiang Shixue.

 “Xiaoxue, come and give it a try!”

Wang Tao really needs Jiang Shixue's combat power, but Jiang Shixue is still at the second level, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in strength.

 If it really doesn't work, forget it. But since there is a chance, Wang Tao will definitely give it a try.

　　…“Then let me try.”

Jiang Shixue looked at Wang Tao with some distress. She was not sure whether it would work, but since it was Wang Tao's kindness, she would definitely not want to waste it.

Jiang Shixue took the small bottle, feeling the warm blood, and drank it all in one gulp.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　please

Jiang Shixue licked her lips.

 “Brother's blood is sweet…”

Hearing this, Wang Tao was speechless.

 Isn't blood salty?

 He doesn't have diabetes either!

 Or are you talking about Jiang Shixue's psychological effect?

While Wang Tao was thinking this, Jiang Shixue suddenly said again:

 “Brother! It seems like... I can really advance!”

 “Haha, it's really possible!”

Wang Tao was immediately overjoyed. He came up with the idea after seeing the logs of the military base. He just thought about the possibility, and did not think that it would definitely succeed. Anyway, if you give it a try, you'll only lose a little blood at most. But I didn't expect it to work!

 “Brother, I'm going to sleep...”

Jiang Shixue suddenly fell on Wang Tao and closed her eyes.

Wang Tao quickly hugged her, making sure that she was just asleep, and breathed a sigh of relief.

 “It should be a normal promotion...”

"But then again, if Xiaoxue can be promoted with just my blood, then the condition is too simple! No promotion core is needed, or even other crystal cores! Then there will be no upper limit to Xiaoxue's promotion in the future?"

Wang Tao was a little excited, but quickly shook his head.

He knew that the world would not let him "stuck". Jiang Shixue definitely didn't mean that she could always be promoted with a bottle of blood. There must be some reasons that he didn't know... For example, she met all the conditions. What is missing is a "key" similar to the promotion of the crystal core, and human blood is the key?

 “Let's wait until Xiaoxue wakes up and then we'll see…”

Wang Tao hugged Jiang Shixue and put her on the bed. Then Wang Tao looked at the lightning at his feet.

“Why don't you try your own blood on it?”

Wang Tao thought for a while and decided to forget it. There were no impurities in Lightning's body and it was completely different from the zombie's constitution. It shouldn't be a method.
