Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 393 - 182: Tide of Corpses_1
Chapter 393: Chapter 182: Tide of Corpses_1
Yang Changhong mentioned three Abilities, two of which Wang Tao was quite interested in.
The first Ability was one that could continuously increase speed.
Wang Tao had always valued speed, but unfortunately, he didn’t have any speed-related Abilities of his own.
The Rush Ability could only be considered a displacement Ability, and because it was an innate part of the suit, it had many limitations and couldn’t be used continuously.
Wang Tao felt that Yang Changhong’s Speed Ability was pretty good, especially since it was a continuous one. Since Wang Tao’s Barrier was also a continuous power, he thought maybe he could try to see if they could be combined…
The second Ability Wang Tao was interested in was Yang Changhong’s that made weapons vibrate at a high frequency.
“How do you make it vibrate? Is it faster than my single for twenty years hand speed? Why don’t you show me so I can have a look?”
Wang Tao asked curiously.
Upon hearing Wang Tao’s words, Yang Changhong’s face suddenly reddened, and she glared at him.
“…Don’t get the wrong idea; it’s not what you think!”
“Eh? Didn’t you say that it’s about making the weapon vibrate at a high frequency? What’s there to misunderstand—oh~”
Wang Tao paused for a moment before he had an epiphany and made an enlightened “oh” sound.
“…Get lost!”
Yang Changhong hit Wang Tao. She felt he was doing it on purpose and quickly changed the subject.
“Watch closely, then.”
She took out the machete from her waist and held it in her hand.
Buzz, buzz~
Suddenly, Wang Tao heard a faint buzzing sound and looked at the knife in Yang Changhong’s hand, not visually noticing any vibration.
Then he saw Yang Changhong holding the knife and lightly swinging it at a withered stump nearby.
Sputter—
The stump was instantly split into two!
Wang Tao saw it clearly, Yang Changhong really didn’t use much strength; just a casual flick of the wrist had split the stump!
Although Wang Tao could also split stumps, he relied purely on brute force, which was completely different from Yang Changhong’s method.
“Impressive!”
Wang Tao exclaimed in admiration.
To tell the truth, he really liked this Ability!
If he had this Ability and paired it with his strength, then how powerful would a single chop be?
“Alas, what’s so great about it. It might look impressive, but in reality, there are a lot of limitations… This Ability consumes a lot of energy, and it’s not like Xu Xiaojun’s Shockwave, which has an area of effect attack…”
Yang Changhong sighed.
Her Ability did high damage, but it also had many shortcomings.
In fact, she preferred to have a Ranged Attack Ability because the closer she was to the zombies, the greater the danger…
Wang Tao asked:
“What kind of Ability do you want next? I think Rush, Jump, Toughness, Self-healing, and so on would all suit you well.”
Wang Tao rattled off several Abilities in one breath and briefly explained the functions of these Abilities.
Yang Changhong listened with a look of anticipation.
These Abilities all sounded really good!
However, after Wang Tao finished speaking, she suddenly interjected:
“Cough, are there any Abilities for Ranged Attacks?”
“Ranged Attack?” freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Wang Tao had been recommending based on close combat capabilities, not expecting Yang Changhong to want a ranged one.
If talking about Ranged Attack Abilities, Precision Shooting was the only one, but that was a Crystal Core Wang Tao couldn’t possibly give away as he needed it for himself.
Apart from Precision Shooting, only Throwing Master and Spittle Nail could be considered ranged, though they were actually more mid-range. As for Shockwave, its attack distance wasn’t long, certainly much shorter compared to these Abilities.
“There are ranged ones too, namely Spittle Nail and Throwing Master.”
Wang Tao introduced the two Abilities separately.
After listening, Yang Changhong’s eyes immediately lit up.
“Can I have the Spittle Nail Crystal Core?”
This surprised Wang Tao, as he thought she would prefer Throwing Master.
Yang Changhong’s reasoning was actually quite simple. Throwing Master seemed convenient as it allowed throwing a variety of objects, but the prerequisite was having throwable weapons; you can’t just pluck a hair to throw, that’s not realistic.
But Spittle Nail was different; it stored one-tenth of the food swallowed and then could spit it out like a hidden weapon!
As for eating, she did it with every meal, so there would never be a shortage of ‘weapons,’ plus it was stored in her stomach, no need to carry extra weapons, making for a surprise attack!
“Spittle Nail? No problem.”
Wang Tao moved his awareness into his Space Backpack, then synthesized an Epic Spittle Nail Crystal Core and took it out.
[Level 2 Crystal Core·Spittle Nail]
[Quality: Epic (100%)]
[Purity: 100% (side effects: none)]
[Spittle Nail: Can store one-tenth of swallowed food in the stomach and spit it out as a weapon]
“An Orange Crystal Core!”
Seeing the Crystal Core in Wang Tao’s hand, Yang Changhong was shocked.
Having survived in the post-apocalyptic world for so long, she had only seen an Orange Crystal Core once, and it was a Level 1 Self-Destruct Crystal Core… and now Wang Tao casually pulled out a Level Two Epic Crystal Core? And it was exactly what she needed!
Since Wang Tao had promised a gift, of course, he would try to give away an Excellent or Epic Crystal Core, anything of lower quality would be embarrassing to offer.
Moreover, he happened to have several Spittle Nail Crystal Cores, so he used two Ordinary and one Excellent to synthesize an Epic Crystal Core.
“Is this… really for me?”
Yang Changhong was still somewhat incredulous; after all, the Crystal Core was too precious.
“Of course, my word is my bond,” Wang Tao said with a smile.
