Shane wryly smiled after seeing his numerous Survivor Skills. After the Zombie Wave, he obtained twelve more new Survivor Skills that could not be seen in the initial status screen as there were too many of them.
Of course, four of them came from the Memory Spheres that he had recently absorbed.
Anyway, he still has to click or touch the plus sign before viewing them. These skills were Trap Setting, Foraging, Archery, Survival Cooking, Horseback Riding, Survival Instincts, Scavenging, Lesser Beast Taming, Phantom Dash, Ghost Stride, Boosted Thrust, and Horizontal Slash.
The last four skills, which were Phantom Dash, Ghost Stride, Boosted Thrust, and Horizontal Slash, had actually come from Fairy Realm and A.I. Rebellion.
The Phantom Dash and Ghost Stride were skills that Shane learned in his 11th month in the Fairy Realm Collision Apocalypse, while the Boosted Thrust and Horizontal Slash were from A.I. Rebellion Apocalypse.
Anyway, Shane decided not to take the Night Hunter Talent. After all, he already had so many items that improved his night hunting...
Then, continued looting the other three, and unfortunately, the Survivor Skills he looted from them were skills he already had.
As for their talents, Enhanced Hearing ( Rare ), Professional Athlete ( Rare ), and Eagle Eye ( Rare ) weren't that enticing for Shane.
"No wonder they all had Bows and Arrows. Their talents were entirely fitted to be a Hunter." Shane muttered to himself after realizing their sets of talents.
Anyway, although Eagle Eye was quite good, he'd rather have Telekinesis or Traceless Breath since he had his A.I. for detection.
Although the range wasn't comparable to the Eagle Eye, it could still improve.
After this was all done, Shane realized that it was already time to eat, so he decided to just open a couple of Granola Bars to fill his stomach before continuing on his journey.
Well, although he could always cook without any worry for a sneaking Zombie, he felt that it was too laborious.

Tak! Tak! Tak!
As Shane made his way towards Sector 7, his path intersected with the rhythmic sound of an axe striking wood in the distance.
'Is there a shelter nearby?' Shane mused as he recalled from the Regional Chat that there shouldn't be a shelter here. Continue your journey on m|v-l'e -novelhall.net
Although there were Necromancers who were active on the chat, they were all complaining how their Talent was terrible since they could only summon one or two Skeleton Warriors to fight for them.
These Skeleton Warriors weren't even that great and were only equal to a Runner Zombie in terms of strength. They could be used to deal with Walker and Crawler Zombies, but that was it.
'Those puppets or workers seemed like humans with the way they moved. They must be higher level.' Shane thought as he looked at them carefully. Now that he observed them carefully, he realized that they were all wearing covers on their faces as if to hide their true identity.
Well, he thought that they were simply trying to protect their skin from the sunlight or from the dust.
"Whatever... Let's see what's going on for now." Shane thought.
He was definitely determined to uncover the mystery...
Soon, he saw a couple of "workers" carrying lumbers back to their Shelter or base.
Without hesitation, he trailed the non-human workers discreetly, following them to their base of operations.
The journey didn't take that long as they were actually just behind a few rock formations where strange glowing herbs were growing...
For now, Shane decided not to investigate these herbs and focused on the task at hand.
"Mhmm?" Soon, Shane was shocked at what he saw.
From his high vantage point, he saw a bustling community of non-humans or puppets within the Shelter!
He was able to confirm this since A.I. Cloud could tell that they weren't human Survivors!
In a moment, a chill ran down his spine. The owner of this Shelter was definitely powerful!
He must possess a Legendary Talent as well! It was possibly a Necromancer, a Puppeteer, or something even more sinister that he didn't know...
For now, Shane considered whether he should just leave this place or try to get in contact with them...
'Should I ask in the Regional Chat?' Shane thought as he felt that some other exploring Survivors might've encountered this strange shelter as well.
