Chapter 403: Chapter 185 Zombie Fish_2
Wang Tao increased the compatibility of his Entangling Roots to 100% and restored his HP to 10,000. Finally, he had time to look at the loot he had acquired.
The Night Demon Zombie he killed had 30,000 HP, so the loot was nearly the same as what he got from the previous Night Demon Zombie.
His HP didn’t increase because it was already at the limit. But his special energy went up by 6,000! He had just used up 5,000, which he now completely replenished.
Next were the Loot Packs—three in total.
The first pack was a Crystal Core Gift Bag containing four Crystal Cores. These cores were almost identical to those from the previous Level 3 Elite Night Demon he had killed, with only slight differences in quality.
[Level 3 Crystal Core – Ascension]
[Quality: Excellent (60%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side effects: None)]
The first core was an Ascension crystal core. Counting this one, he now had three Level 3 Ascension Crystal Cores. However, the probability with this core was a bit lower. If he wanted to ensure a safer promotion, he’d need to improve the quality.
[Level 3 Crystal Core – Energy Boost]
[Quality: Excellent (40%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side effects: None)]
[Energy Boost: Increases Mana cap by 1,000]

The second was an Energy Boost Crystal Core—it was of excellent quality last time, but only of good quality this time.
[Level 3 Crystal Core – HP Boost]
[Quality: Excellent (60%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side effects: None)]
[HP Boost: Increases HP cap by 1,000]
The third, an HP Enhancement Crystal Core, had better quality than the last one.
[Level 3 Crystal Core – Body Constitution Boost]
[Quality: Excellent (80%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side effects: None)]
[Physical Enhancement: All aspects of physical constitution will be enhanced]
The fourth one was a Body Constitution Boost Crystal Core—the last one was Epic; this time it was Excellent.
Other than the Ascension crystal core, the other three were Passive Abilities. Wang Tao had thought that since they were similar passive abilities, the chance of synthesizing them should be quite high. If he could synthesize these three abilities into one Ability, it would definitely be a powerful one!
But for now, Wang Tao didn’t have much special energy to work with. After all, synthesizing a Level 3 Ability required 20,000 special energy…
The second Loot Pack contained Potions.
[Strength Growth Potion x5]
[Agility Increase Potion x5]
[Mental Boosting Potion x5]
Just like last time, there were a total of 15 potions that permanently increased various attributes.
[Strength Increase Potion: After injection, strength will receive a permanent enhancement.]
[Agility Increase Potion: After injection, agility will receive a permanent enhancement.]
[Mental Boosting Potion: After injection, spirit will receive a permanent enhancement.]
Without a second thought, Wang Tao took the potions and injected them into himself. Moments later, he felt even more powerful!
Then Wang Tao looked at the third pack.
[High Power Ultraviolet Flashlight x1]
[Small ultraviolet illumination flares x20]
As before, one flashlight and 20 flares.
After examining these items, an idea suddenly sprang to Wang Tao’s mind.
With his current strength, he had no problem handling a single Night Demon. If he teamed up with Jiang Shixue and Xu Xiaojun, they might even stand a chance against two Night Demons.
Since Night Demons were Level 3 zombies, the rewards for killing them were tripled! Whether it was special energy, Crystal Cores, or potions, these were all things Wang Tao desperately wanted.
So what if he deliberately kept himself at Level Two without advancing to Level 3 for now and went on a spree of hunting Level 3 Night Demons to snag triple the rewards? Wouldn’t he be able to collect a substantial number of Crystal Cores and potions?!
Wang Tao thought this plan… seemed feasible!
Of course, right now he didn’t need to hold back since he wasn’t able to advance to Level 3 anyway. As for hunting Night Demons… the difficulty for him wasn’t in how to kill a Night Demon, but in how to find a lone one—or rather, how to lure one out… This was something he needed to thoroughly research in the future.
…
The next day, early morning.
The convoy stopped by a lake.
“We’ve been driving all night. Everyone is exhausted… it’s time to rest,” Yang Changhong said over the walkie-talkie to Wang Tao.
This lake was beside a national highway, which they could take if anything happened.
“Okay,” Wang Tao agreed.
After quickly setting up the defensive perimeters, they all hurried to catch up on sleep.
As second-order Ability Users, Wang Tao, Jiang Shixue, Xu Xiaojun, and Yang Changhong still felt relatively alert, so they took turns keeping watch.
Yang Changhong looked at Wang Tao with a hesitant expression.
“What’s up?” Wang Tao asked.
“Nothing much, just… you’re really amazing!” she said.
Yang Changhong had wanted to ask Wang Tao about the Ability that turned him into a monster the previous night and how he, as a Level 2 Ability User, managed to defeat a Level 2 Night Demon with ease. But after contemplating, she decided not to ask.
What difference would it make even if she knew? If she couldn’t surpass him, that was that.
Yang Changhong had always been a proud person, and she certainly had the credentials to be proud. Whether it was seizing the opportunity in the business world before the apocalypse or leading her employees to safety after the apocalypse… she vastly outperformed countless others.
But ever since meeting Wang Tao, she felt her pride was on the verge of being crushed.
Having such a powerful ally like him was reassuring, indeed. And it was true that Wang Tao had saved them many times.
But still, she felt a bit lost. She began to believe that only someone as formidable as Wang Tao could survive in this post-apocalyptic world, while an ordinary person like her would eventually perish at the hands of the zombies.
