Chapter 293: Finding Treasure



Shane knew about the Quick Learner talent as he had a chance of obtaining it before when he had looted them from Survivor Zombies.

However, the Quick Learner Talent that he had encountered was either Common or Uncommon grade only.

Needless to say, that level of talent was nothing in his eyes, considering his current set of talents.

Anyway, this Quick Leader Talent allowed Lysandra to obtain a skill called Assassin's Breath. This Survivor Skill made her breathing different from other Survivors to hide her presence. This was the reason why Cloud needed a few more seconds compared to others in order to sense her presence.

[ Quick Learner ( Epic Talent ): The Survivor have an unparalleled capacity for rapid acquisition and mastery of new skills, knowledge, and abilities. This talent enables the Survivor to adapt swiftly to various situations, allowing them to excel in diverse environments and challenges.

The Quick Learner can absorb information like a sponge, processing complex data and techniques with remarkable speed and accuracy. ]

Then, when Shane revealed his Aura Master and Telekinesis Talent to her, Lysandra felt that Shane really trusted her, so she further explained that her Quick Learner Talent had four distinct abilities.

They were Adaptive Mastery that could help her complete tasks even if they were new to her. The other skills were Enhanced Retention, Rapid Analysis, and finally, the most important ability called Skill Synthesis.

With this set of abilities tied with the Talent, there was no doubt that Lysandra could be considered one of the best Survivors with very high potential.

The only problem with her right now was her lack of Spirit Points.

Currently, she only has 430 Spirit Points.

That was certainly a good number, considering that only 5 Spirit Points get added every level up. It means that she shouldn't even have 200 Spirit Points with her current level.

This showed that she was still able to consume some Spirit Enhancement Potions, which led her to reach the 430 points.

As Shane and Lysandra ventured deeper into the wilderness, they soon located a hidden cave concealed by a massive boulder. There were several marks all over the place that showed signs of human interference. Shane realized that Magnus and his team were likely behind this simple yet effective cover-up.

With Shane's current strength, he was able to move the boulder, which was much to Lysandra's surprise.

"Stay here and guard the entrance," Shane instructed Lysandra, his tone firm yet reassuring. There was no hint of nervousness at all.

"Got it... Good luck in there..." Lysandra replied. Anyway, she didn't want to face high-tier Zombies as well. They were simply too strong for her current level.

She would just be a burden if she fought together with Shane in that tight space. She might as well guard this area. Anyway, with her Assassin's Breath, Zombie's would have difficulty sensing her presence while she was out here.

Seeing how cooperative she was, Shane smiled as he stepped into the cavern, his Light Flameblade at the ready.

The musty air of the cave enveloped him as he advanced further using his Light Orb.

With his Enhanced Senses, he was keenly attuned to the faint sounds of shuffling and scraping echoing from the shadows.

'Crypt Crawlers...' Shane thought before Cloud completed its analysis.

[ Scan Completed. ]

[ Ten Crypt Crawlers have been detected. ]

Shane then continued moving, and as he rounded a corner, his eyes fell upon a group of Crypt Crawler Zombies as he had sensed.

These humanoid monstrosities, with limbs elongated like arachnids, skittered towards Shane with evil intent... Without hesitation, Shane sprang into action, and his Light Flameblade lit up the whole tunnel!
