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

Wang Tao’s ability was the exact opposite of Jiang Shixue’s. The simpler the mind, the easier it was for Wang Tao to interfere, and those brainless zombies were very easy to manipulate. However, it was ineffective against humans, unless they were literally brain dead… So, Wang Tao’s ability wasn’t very effective on humans but worked well on zombies. Of course, this was only true for zombies whose levels and spiritual power were inferior to his own.

Therefore, they generally didn’t use this kind of control ability. Wang Tao didn’t think of it at first. But looking at the situation now, it was clear that control was at play!

“Let’s go check it out!”

Now that he remembered he had this ability, Wang Tao immediately activated Mental Disturbance, rounding up a few ordinary zombies to surround himself. He prepared to have these zombies clear the way as he and Jiang Shixue snuck over to see what was actually happening.

Soon, the two Level 3, Lord zombies were down to a sliver of HP, and Wang Tao, along with Jiang Shixue, gradually made their way to the vicinity.

Suddenly, Wang Tao felt the scene before his eyes change, transforming into a gray and lifeless world with many humans around him with vacant stares.

These people were all standing around, hardly moving, but among them, two of the humans were hitting each other with punches and slaps!

Both of them were trying to bite each other, but they were blocked, so they could only fight with punches and kicks.

Wang Tao turned his head, just as Jiang Shixue also turned hers; both of their eyes—one red, one green—showed a hint of surprise.

Watching one of the “humans” in the fight fall, Wang Tao said,

“This feeling… is almost the same as the Illusion Beast we encountered in Zijing City!”

Wang Tao and his companions had also been trapped in an illusion just like this before!

However, the previous illusion had been much more realistic; Wang Tao knew it was an illusion but could not spot a single flaw!

Yet, this current illusion was fraught with flaws—just as Wang Tao was about to criticize the multitude of flaws in the illusion, the scene before his eyes changed again!

Suddenly, it became an empty basketball court with several tall people playing, surrounded by a crowd of spectators.

Wang Tao himself hadn’t changed at all, still in his combat suit. Jiang Shixue was the same as well, wearing the JK uniform Wang Tao had given her.

“It’s definitely that kind of Illusion! Perhaps it’s that Level 4 monster!”

Wang Tao grinned.

The people playing basketball approached and invited Wang Tao to join them.

Wang Tao responded with a Shockwave.

Bang!

In an instant, flesh flew, and the basketball court was filled with blood, eliciting a continuous series of Screams from the spectator stands… everything felt incredibly real.

It would have been even better if they didn’t have red HP bars above their heads.

Wang Tao launched indiscriminate attacks around him, and in an instant, there were a great number of casualties, turning the basketball court into a slaughterhouse.

Looking at these gory scenes, Wang Tao remained completely unfazed, cranking his Perception Ability to the max as he searched meticulously.

Suddenly, Wang Tao swung his sword towards a certain spot.

“Found you!”

Bang!

There seemed to be nothing in front of him, but Wang Tao’s blade was blocked!

Wang Tao saw a slight tear in the scene before him, but it quickly stabilized again.

“Got away?”

In Wang Tao’s perception, the thing with immense energy he had “seen” escaped quickly after taking a hit from him.

Sizzle—

Right after, Wang Tao saw the scene before him fracture, the basketball court disappearing, transforming into the wilderness.

The people slaughtered by Wang Tao in the basketball court also disappeared, turning into a pile of zombie limbs and remains on the ground.

Wang Tao didn’t care about the scene before him; he immediately surveyed his surroundings and pushed his Plant Affinity and Perception to their limits.

In the distance, Wang Tao caught a glimpse of a black shadow that flashed by!

Although he did not see the entire figure, Wang Tao caught sight of its HP bar.

[HP: 116746/120000]

[Mana: 90000/100000]

[Grade: Level 4 – Lord]

[Internal Impurity: 80%]

[Awakening: Real Illusion]

[Real Illusion: Increases defensive power, can create a Real Illusion area, and affect the consciousness of all living beings within it]

Wang Tao felt that this had to be the Level 4, Monster Lord he had encountered three months earlier!

Compared to before, this monster’s HP had only increased by 20,000. This showed that increasing HP beyond 100,000 must be very difficult.

And this time, Wang Tao had finally seen its Awakening.

“Real Illusion!”

The monster’s Awakening was to create an illusion, which was close to what Wang Tao had anticipated.

When he had first encountered this monster, Wang Tao was very afraid, as it was Level 4. But now, Wang Tao felt he could put up a fight!

Even if Wang Tao couldn’t detect the flaw in the illusion, which was too much like the real world, he could see HP bars! A group of normal humans with red HP bars over their heads… anyone with a brain would know what to do!

So, no matter how realistic his illusion was, it was not much use to Wang Tao!

Apart from the illusion itself, Wang Tao didn’t feel it had any other attacking ability.

This illusion relied on affecting the consciousness of living beings to attack. For example, making the zombies attack Wang Tao, or causing Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue to kill each other.

But zombies below Level 4 were not a significant threat to Wang Tao, unless there were a lot of them.

Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue wouldn’t be subjected to mental control—not to mention them, even Xu Xiaojun and Nie Siyan from before were not much affected.

Wang Tao estimated that the control ability of this illusion was similar to his Psychic Disturbance Ability; the lower the intelligence and the weaker the mental strength, the easier it was to be controlled.
