Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot

First, there were the Black Stone Armor Top and pants he wore. These two pieces of equipment could be inlaid with Crystal Cores and also required Awakening Energy to activate.

However, Wang Tao didn’t have many Level 4 Crystal Cores at hand and didn’t have any suitable ones for the moment, so he hadn’t inlaid any.

Then there were the Explosion-proof Baton and Shield he had obtained before. These two pieces of equipment were quite good, but they also required Awakening Energy to activate.

Wang Tao spent 2 points of Awakening Energy and successfully activated both pieces of equipment.

[Mutant Explosion-proof Baton]

[Rank Four (Excellent)]

[Durability +80, Attack power +60, includes Electric Shock Effect (activated, consumes 1 Awakening Energy per day. Once activated, it binds to the user; must be rebound if passed to another person)]

[Mutant Explosion-proof Electric Shield]

[Rank Four (Excellent)]

[Durability +100, defensive power +100, includes Electric Shock Effect (activated, consumes 1 Awakening Energy per day. Once activated, it binds to the user; must be rebound if passed to another person)]

After activating these two pieces of equipment, like the Night Demon Set, they consumed 1 Awakening Energy per day and bound to himself.

It seemed that only Awakeners could fully utilize the strength of equipment and sets with special attributes of Level 4 or above.

Wang Tao tried out the two pieces of equipment briefly. It was hard to say about the Electric Shield without bumping into zombies or having zombies hit the shield to produce electricity.

The Baton was simpler, as Wang Tao could see the current flowing when he swung it. He wasn’t sure of its power at the moment and planned to test it.

Some time later, the helicopter flew back to the military base.

The sound of the helicopter had attracted even more zombies. Wang Tao used this opportunity to test the Electric Baton and Shield’s effect on them.

“Hehe…”

A group of zombies saw Wang Tao leave the base and immediately rushed towards him.

Wang Tao held the [Mutant Explosion-proof Baton], and when the group of zombies neared, he struck the leading zombie with it.

Bang!

Sizzle—

The Ordinary Zombie was directly headshot by Wang Tao, and electrical arcs flashed through.

But to Wang Tao’s surprise, the arcs didn’t just appear on the headshot zombie but spread to the surrounding zombies as well.

In an instant, the arc electrified around ten nearby zombies. Several of them were charred to a crisp and couldn’t be deader. The others, though not dead, were electrified into stiffness and couldn’t move.

“Goodness!”

Wang Tao was very surprised as he watched this scene.

He had originally thought that the electric shock effect from the Mutant Explosion-proof Baton would be similar to that of an ordinary electric baton, meant not to kill.

But the power was much greater than he had imagined. Not only could he directly electrocute some zombies to death, but he could also spread it to other zombies.

Especially among the zombie hordes, waving the Baton at one could instantly take down a large group!

Wang Tao felt he could consider this Baton as a high-damage Ability for area attacks. However, there was a concern: he might electrocute himself, so he had to be careful when using it.

Wang Tao then tested the Electric Shield. The Shield’s effect was the same as the Baton’s, but relatively safer. Shielded behind it, there was no worry about electrocuting himself.

It was a pity that others couldn’t harness these pieces of equipment’s effects; otherwise, it would be more suitable for them…

Wang Tao returned to the base again.

When they heard that Wang Tao had visited the Night Demon’s Lair and killed a Level 4, Lord Night Demon, the newcomers were flabbergasted.

Running into the den of the Night Demon and killing their Level 4, Lord Night Demon?!

That was Wang Tao’s strength!

Wang Tao called over Ding Yuqin and the others, explaining the situation with the Level 4 Night Demon. Only by knowing oneself and the enemy could they be ever-victorious. If they encountered a Level 4, Lord Night Demon, in the future, they would also know how to deal with it.

Wang Tao also took out the two Night Demon Type 1 to show them.

These things were quite frightening, so it was better to let them know in advance that they were Wang Tao’s weapons to avoid any mistaken attacks.

Wang Tao also distributed a good number of Ultraviolet illumination flares to everyone; they were life-saving treasures.

That evening, Lan Yulian contacted Wang Tao out of the blue.

Upon connecting, Wang Tao noticed there was tension in her voice.

“Wang Tao, I think I’ve discovered Four-level zombies…”

“Hmm? Tell me more!”

Wang Tao frowned.

“These past few days, the zombies in Zijing City have been increasing, and quite a few Level 3, Zombie Lords have appeared. But I suddenly found that several Level 3, Zombie Lords we were watching have been killed! And besides us, there are no other survivors in Zijing City! It looks like they were killed at the same time, so we suspect that Four-level zombies may have appeared…”

Generally, zombies were relatively peaceful among themselves, but there were exceptions.

Some more aggressive zombies enjoyed hunting their kind; some huge ones would not deliberately avoid their kind when walking, resulting in the death of many zombies; there were also conflicts among zombies—the stronger the zombie, the wiser it became. It wasn’t impossible for conflicts to occur… Hence, it was possible for killings to happen among zombies.

The situation Lan Yulian described did indeed sound like Four-level zombies. After all, to simultaneously kill several Level 3, Zombie Lords, and in a brutal manner at that, it was highly likely that only a Level 4 could do so.

Wang Tao had previously told Lan Yulian that if Four-level zombies appeared, she must contact him. So, Lan Yulian reached out to Wang Tao immediately.

“Here’s what we’ll do, I’ll come over tomorrow to look into it.”

Wang Tao said to Lan Yulian.

If it was a weaker Level 4 zombie, he would try to deal with it. If it was stronger, then he would strategize long-term. If it was very strong, like the Giant Zombies… then Wang Tao planned on bringing Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng back to the military base.

“Are you personally coming over? Be careful on your way!”

Lan Yulian was worried.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take a plane.”

After ending the call, Wang Tao said to He Jijun:

“Old He, let’s go to Zijing City tomorrow. There might be Four-level zombies.”

“Sure!”
