Chapter 209: Chapter 121 Synthetic 6 Epic Crystal Cores 2

Translator: 549690339

When the internal impurities reach 100%, one will definitely become a zombie. But this doesn’t mean that if it’s not 100%, there won’t be a problem.

The first time he saw the Zombie Core, the prompt was very clear—the more impurities inside, the greater the chance of becoming a zombie!

Wang Tao didn’t know how high the probability of Shao Yong becoming a zombie with 70% impurities in his body was, but even if there was a 1% chance of turning into a zombie, that would be like a ticking time bomb! You never know when it might go off…

So now, it’s time to take the issue of internal impurities seriously.

Wang Tao speculated that the reason why Shao Yong had accumulated so many impurities might be due to his fusing with too many Zombie Cores!

He had a whopping 4000 Mana, which at the very least meant fusing with 40 Zombie Cores, but in reality, it was definitely more than that, perhaps even double or more!

Wang Tao currently didn’t know how many internal impurities would accumulate from fusing with a Crystal Core… If he didn’t figure this out, future core fusions would be terrifying.

Of course, Wang Tao himself didn’t care about impurities. He fused with Crystal Cores that had 100% Purity. But this was the apocalypse, and it wasn’t just Wang Tao alone, he had friends, teammates, and the entire Shuize Base. So this matter had to be clarified…

Wang Tao looked at Han Rui, whose impurity level displayed as “1%” beneath her HP bar. Although it seemed small and not much of a danger, she had fused with far fewer Zombie Cores, only three in total thus far.

Just looking at Han Rui’s internal impurities, Wang Tao still couldn’t make a judgment yet, he needed to compare it with other people’s attributes.

Recently, all the committee members in the base had become Ability Users, he could study this matter properly after returning…

Wang Tao then looked at the other Crystal Cores, many of which he could use.

For instance, Throwing Master, Power, Rush, and so on.

But what made Wang Tao happiest was that he finally saw a Self-healing Crystal Core!

[Level 1 Crystal Core ■ Self-healing]

[Quality: Excellent (80%)]

[Purity: 50% (Side effect: Reduced touch sensation)]

[Self-healing: Within its duration, it can slowly heal certain injuries] This was an Excellent quality Self-healing Crystal Core, and although there was only one, it was enough for him to fuse. Because he happened to have an Ordinary quality Self-healing Crystal Core. Adding them together made an Epic Crystal Core with no side effects and no impurities!

Now Wang Tao didn’t have to hesitate about which Crystal Core to fuse-it had to be Self-healing!

“Go to the rooftop and observe, see if there are any zombies around, we still have to rest here tonight.”

“Okay!”

After sending Han Rui out, Wang Tao immediately put all these Crystal Cores into his Space Backpack. He already had quite a few Crystal Cores in there, and now with these additions, the count surged.

He then synthesized all the Crystal Cores that he needed at the moment.

A rambow light flashed, and 6 Orange Crystal Cores appeared in the Space Backpack.

[Level 1 Crystal Core • Precision Shooting x2]

[Level 1 Crystal Core • Toughness X3]

[Level 1 Crystal Core • Self-healing xi]

Without a second word, Wang Tao placed the two Precision Shooting Crystal Cores into his mouth one after the other, feeling warm as he fused with them. Then he consecutively put the Toughness Crystal Cores into his mouth.

A warm sensation came again.

A moment later, all three “Toughness” were fused by Wang Tao.

Then Wang Tao looked at the last Self-healing Crystal Core.

In earlier days, Wang Tao felt that his limit was fusing four types of Crystal

Cores, but his strength was insufficient to force a fusion.

Now, his strength was more than enough, and he felt that fusing a fourth type of Crystal Core was no problem at all.

However, to be on the safe side, he waited for Han Rui to come back before he swallowed the Zombie Core in one gulp.

Instantly, Wang Tao felt very warm, no, it was very hot.

So, Wang Tao stripped off all his clothes, and Han Rui next to him was somewhat stunned. She thought Wang Tao wanted to do something to her at that moment—not that he was that kind of person. When they were out in the wild before, he never wasted his strength on such things.

Thankfully, Wang Tao told Han Rui that he was just fusing with a new Crystal Core and feeling a bit hot.

Han Rui quickly came over to fan Wang Tao.

However, Wang Tao felt that the heat this time was not as intense as the last, and he wasn’t too uncomfortable. Maybe it was because his strength had increased?

A few minutes later, Wang Tao felt his body gradually cooling down, returning to normal quite soon.

Han Rui had been touching Wang Tao’s arm, and once she felt his skin wasn’t as hot, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Tao, in turn, looked at his own attributes.

HP [3410/3410]

Mana [2000/2000]

His Mana had risen from 1400 to 2000! With this amount of Mana, as long as it wasn’t a prolonged battle, he wouldn’t have to worry about running out.

Then, his Abilities.

[Shockwave +10]

[Toughness +6]

[Precision Shooting +3]

[Self-healing +1]

Among the four Abilities, Shockwave was already fused to the limit, but the other three Abilities still had plenty of room for growth.

Wang Tao wasn’t clear just how strong his combat power was because he was too cautious—

If he could go out with someone else, he definitely wouldn’t go alone; if he could attack with Crossbow Arrows from a distance, he would never engage in close combat; he would rather slowly lure zombies than actively go solo against a horde, unless he was sure he could win…

No one could fault Wang Tao for this, his margin for error was low; any scratch

or bite from a zombie would inevitably lead to infection.

Although inhibitors could delay the effects of the zombie virus temporarily, they had to be used continuously. Wang Tao had inhibitors, but he didn’t want to become dependent on them. Moreover, excessive use of inhibitors wasn’t good for the body.

So, up until now, Wang Tao had never really fought all out.

Of course, Wang Tao wasn’t so arrogant as to think he was invincible with full strength. Just the Gorilla zombie he had seen not long ago—the one he couldn’t defeat even when pulling out all the stops!

Wang Tao even felt that he might not be able to beat it even when the Gorilla zombie had 5000 HP….
