Vroom-

The car started and turned to leave via another road.

Wang Tao suddenly felt that firing his gun just now seemed to have its benefits after all; it had at least attracted the surrounding zombies, so he could speed up a bit.

Not until he had left the street did Wang Tao finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Then he took out a painkiller from the military medical kit and plunged it into his arm.

The Terrorizer’s hammer strike, although not hitting him directly, had delivered a solid shockwave to him, taking off more than eighty HP. His wounds hadn’t fully healed… and now his whole body was even more painfully sore.

Fortunately, he was wearing thick clothes, with books on his body to block some of the damage.

It was also lucky that he had dressed warmly, or he might have been burned while collecting the spoils of combat.

Looking at the burnt holes in his clothes, even on the hood and the face mask, Wang Tao felt somewhat relieved. He had narrowly avoided disfigurement again…

The painkiller worked well, and soon he felt much more spirited.

Only then did he have the chance to check his spoils.

Killing that Terrorizer had once again granted him an additional 40 HP limit.

He reached [54/380], close to breaking through four hundred, but since his current HP had dropped quite a bit during the fight, he was still severely injured.

Just like before, the Terrorizer’s weapon was stored by Wang Tao in his Space Backpack, and the dropped parcel contained the same item, [Strength Potion (small) xl], but this time there was no blueprint.

Finally, it was time for him to focus on his main objective-

[ Level 1 Crystal Core – Shockwave]

[Quality: Excellent (80%)]

[Purity: 50% (Side effect: Sensitivity to light)]

This time, the Crystal Core was not a white and transparent one but a transparent red crystal!

Compared to the previous Crystal Core, the Quality had changed. The last one was “Ordinary (20%)” and this one was “Excellent (80%)!”

Quality affects the success rate of fusion, indicating an 80% success rate for merging this Red Crystal Core!

This success rate was impressive; as long as one wasn’t extremely unlucky, the fusion would be stable.

Of course, Wang Tao was aiming for a 100% success rate; he definitely wouldn’t fuse this one now, as he intended to gather ten for synthesis—wait a minute!

Wang Tao suddenly paused.

The first Shockwave Crystal Core had a fusion success rate of 20%, and this second one was at 80%. Didn’t that mean the combined success rate was already 100%?

He quickly looked at his Space Backpack, and noticed some changes in the cell where the Zombie Cores were stored.

[Level 1 Crystal Core – Shockwave]

[2/10 (Can be synthetized)]

He could synthesize now!

So this “10” didn’t mean that at least ten Cores were needed for one synthesis, but that up to ten Cores could be fused?!

Just as Wang Tao was pondering synthesis, another prompt popped up.

[The attributes after synthing “Level 1 Crystal Core – Shockwave” will be:]

[Quality: Ordinary (20%) + Excellent (80%) = Epic (100%)]

[Purity: 50% + 50% = 100%]

[Impurities: None]

[Side effects: None]

“After synthesis, the Quality will become 100%, and the Purity will be 100% as well! Stability maxed out, no impurities, side effects extracted too! What are we waiting for!”

Without hesitation, Wang Tao chose to synthesize.

Swish—

The cell in the Space Backpack where the Crystal Cores were placed burst into a burst of colorful light, and an Orange Zombie Core appeared.

[Level 1 Crystal Core – Shockwave]

[Quality: Epic (100%)]

[Purity: 100% (No side effects)]

Seeing the Orange Zombie Core in the Space Backpack, Wang Tao felt his heartbeat quicken a bit.

But Wang Tao still had his wits about him, he knew that merging this thing right now wasn’t quite appropriate. It would be better to go back and do it.

However, just as Wang Tao took the crystal core out from the space to admire it.

He suddenly felt as if he hadn’t eaten for days, and a delicious meal was placed in front of him. Instinctively, he bit into it.

And then… he swallowed the beautiful orange crystal core.

“Fuck!”

It was only after swallowing it that Wang Tao realized what he had done.

He quickly stopped the car, touched his body, and tried to see if there were any changes.

“I feel a bit hot…”

Wang Tao felt his body warming up, but that was all, no other changes occurred.

The mild heat persisted for about three minutes.

Then Wang Tao felt like he had grown a bit stronger, but not by much.

He hurriedly checked his attributes.

His HP limit didn’t change, but his current HP increased by 10 points, turning into [64/380]

Below his HP bar, a new blue bar had appeared—[100/100]

Seeing the blue bar, a realization suddenly dawned on Wang Tao.

The blue bar represented his energy! He needed this energy to release the Shockwave!

Then, next to the icon for the Space Backpack, an icon of a small fist appeared. Inside the fist icon, there was another icon with a wave pattern—[Ability – Shockwave]

“Do I really have an ability now?”

Wang Tao felt it was somewhat surreal.

Mainly because he didn’t feel any major changes in his body…

Thinking this, Wang Tao suddenly threw a punch at the air outside the car window.

Thump—

Although it was a punch into the air, it made a ripple as if hitting water, visible to the naked eye!

The diameter of the ripple was about one meter.

At the same time, his blue bar dropped by 10 points.

Then he punched the air again, but this time nothing happened.

“So that’s how it is!”

Wang Tao had understood how to use the ability. As long as he thought about using the Shockwave Ability in his mind, he could manifest it. If he didn’t want to use it, it would be just a normal attack.

He could also roughly control how much energy to use; he just thought about using as little energy as possible and then used 10 points of energy.

He could use even less or more energy in one go.

But he had a feeling that using less energy required extremely precise control, which he was not capable of yet. If he used too much energy at once, he might end up drained or damage his body, and it seemed like the maximum energy he could use at once was around 20 points…

Therefore, to wield this ability with ease, he had to learn and practice more!

If two ability users with the same energy and skill were to fight head-on, the one more proficient in using their ability would undoubtedly win…

But no matter what, Wang Tao was now a genuine ability user!

He couldn’t wait to roar out in excitement, after all, which man hadn’t dreamt of having supernatural powers when they were a child?

Although he wasn’t quite at the level of soaring through the skies and burrowing into the earth, he believed that as long as he continued to grow stronger, he might get there one day!

With this excited mindset, Wang Tao finally returned to Happy Community a minute before the effects of the Stealth Potion wore off.

“Hm? What happened?”

Wang Tao suddenly frowned.

Something seemed off; where were all the zombies in the courtyard?

There were clearly more than twenty zombies in the yard, and when he left, the zombies didn’t chase after him.

Could it be that someone came out and lured the zombies away?

No, the zombies went into the building!

When Wang Tao saw that the door to Building 4 was open, his face suddenly turned grim..
