"What a pity..." Shane muttered as he felt that this Aura Master Talent was incredible... It was also an Exceptional Grade, and it was certainly higher than his current Traceless Breath Talent, which was only a Rare Grade.
Nonetheless, the notification from the Apocalypse System hasn't ended yet!
Ding!
[ You have leveled up. ]
[ Congratulations! You are the first Survivor to reach level 20. ]
[ You have earned 10 Reputation Points. ]
[ Choose an additional reward: Reputation Points x100, Zombie Cores x1,500, Mystery Egg x4 ]
"Wow..." Shane muttered as he saw the generous rewards.
Shane looked at the Mystery Egg for a moment before he shook his head. He already has a total of five pets, and they are all in his Fairy Realm at the moment, as they are still newborns.
Adding four pets may sound like a really good idea, but in the end, he chose the 100 Reputation Points since there are many things he wanted to buy in that Reputation Store!
He believed that he had a higher chance of getting eggs than getting Reputation Points!
After selecting the Reputation Points as his reward, he received another notification.
[ You have obtained three Gift Pack vouchers! ]
[ You can select three Gift Packs from the options below. You can't select the similar Gift Packs. ]
Shelter Gift Pack
Medical Gift Pack
Survival Gift Pack
Water Gift Pack
Energy Gift Pack
Stealth Gift Pack
Transport Gift Pack
Entertainment Gift Pack
Weapon Gift Pack
Food Gift Pack
It appears that the reward he obtained first was for being the first level 20. This time, however, was the reward for reaching this level.
Shane thought for a moment before deciding to select the Water Gift Pack, Food Gift Pack, and Transport Gift Pack. It didn't take him that long so choose this.
Just like before, the Water Gift Pack contains a water filter, filled water bottles, purification tablets, and a collapsible bucket.
The Food Gift Pack contained easy-to-open canned goods, instant noodles, tea bags, granola bars, and mayonnaise.
Lastly, the Gift Pack that he was really interested in, was the Transport Gift Pack. It contained a folding bicycle, a helmet, a lock, and a repair kit.
He was really interested in this bicycle. Furthermore, the estate's size was actually quite large with the addition of the orchard, so this bicycle could also be used by the one patrolling the estate...
[ You have learned a Survivor Skill: Alchemy ]
[ You have learned a Survivor Skill: Lesser Mind Control ]

"Now... This is perfect..."
It didn't end there; after Shane had acquired these new skills from his memories, he had obtained something even better!
[ You have obtained a new Talent Slot! ]
"What?"
It means that he could finally accept new talent!
At this point, the previous notification that he didn't answer had automatically accepted the offered talent because of the new slot that had opened up.
Just like that, Shane obtained the Aura Master Talent after absorbing the two Memory Spheres!
Shane felt overwhelmed by the multiple good news he had received in just a few minutes!
It happened too quickly!
Shane then tried to use this Aura Master as he slowly tried to sense his aura.
"Huuu~"
Shane took a deep breath as he delved deeper into his newfound Aura Master Talent...
This was the first time he had to use it, so he still had to condition his mind.
Whom~
After a while, a wave of energy surged through him.
Colors danced before his eyes, swirling and merging in a kaleidoscope of vibrant hues. With a focused mind and a steady heart, he extended his senses, reaching out to the invisible threads of energy that surrounded him.
As he concentrated, a soft glow enveloped his body, shimmering like a protective veil.
Of course, this sounded so fancy, but he was the only one who could see the aura he could gather... This was why Shane had initially thought that the leader of the invaders had high-grade clothing instead.
The air around him seemed to hum, responding to his newfound mastery.
Shane closed his eyes, allowing the energy to flow through him, intertwining with his essence.
"This is so cool... No wonder he got so arrogant..." Shane muttered as he clenched his fist with a mold of aura he concentrated into his hand...
With this talent, his Survival would increase by another level once again!
However, this might actually not be the best talent he could obtain right now!
