Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 1701 - 718: Clearing and Rescue Operation_2

According to the previous life’s situation, the upper limit of Level 1 is five thousand HP. Based on the zombies and the situation of the mutated beast Taxue he has seen so far, they all have ten thousand HP and are still Level 1.

This made Wang Tao think that the HP limit might have increased in this life. However, to his surprise, the HP limit not only didn’t increase but decreased. With just a thousand HP, he couldn’t increase it anymore; exceeding a thousand HP would categorize him in Level 2...

So it’s evident that this HP limit is targeted at humans, lowering their error tolerance.

However, for Wang Tao, this isn’t much of a problem.

Because currently, HP is not linked to combat power, unlike the previous life, where the more HP one had, the more physical attributes improved, and naturally, combat power increased.

But it’s different in this life; the amount of HP is not directly related to combat power, at most making survival ability a bit stronger. So even if Wang Tao has little HP, his combat power remains formidable.

As for survival ability... Wang Tao is already at a great advantage at the start of this life, so his survival capability is maximized, basically not needing too much concern, just a bit of carefulness daily.

Besides the increase in HP, Wang Tao also fused other basic attributes.

When Wang Tao’s HP reached the Level 1 limit, he sensed the method for advancing to Level 2—

By fully merging the five basic attribute crystal cores of [HP], [Mana], [Constitution], [Agility], and [Spirit], he could ascend to Level 2.

The human Level 1 HP limit is 1000 HP; Wang Tao reached full value by merging 90 Level 1 Blood Volume Crystal Cores. So Wang Tao speculates that the other basic attributes might require a similar amount of crystal cores.

Wang Tao planned to rest well today and then head out to hunt zombies early tomorrow morning. He estimated it would take only a few days to bring all other attributes, except for Mana, to full value. As for not having mana, upon reaching 1000 HP, Wang Tao vaguely felt that he just needed to fuse the other attributes to full value without worrying about Mana.

In the previous life, it took Wang Tao half a month to ascend from an ordinary person to a Level 1 Ability User. As for ascending from an ordinary person to a Level 2 Ability User, it took a full three months.

In this life, on the first day after waking up, Wang Tao already ascended to Level 1, and it’s estimated that ascending to Level 2 won’t take a week.

This speed is not comparable to the last life at all!

Of course, the current zombies are stronger than in the previous life, so Wang Tao can’t be careless. He needs to enhance his strength quickly, striving to surpass the zombies in level, which might give him a chance to save all of humanity.

"Let’s go directly to Shuize University tomorrow to help Xiang Hongbin and the others clear the zombies, rescue survivors, and collect some crystal cores, preparing for Level 2 Ascension..."

After examining his situation and planning the next day’s actions, Wang Tao opened his eyes and saw Li Qiuyu sweating profusely. Massaging is hard work, and although Li Qiuyu’s technique was fine, her strength couldn’t keep up; she was already exhausted after massaging for so long. However, since Wang Tao hadn’t asked her to stop, she had to persevere.

"That’s enough, you can take a break."

Wang Tao sat up directly.

"Hah—okay!"

Li Qiuyu didn’t force herself; hearing Wang Tao’s words, she quickly stopped and took a deep breath.

Knock-knock-knock!

Just then, the door was knocked.

Ding Yuqin’s voice came from outside.

At Wang Tao’s gesture, Li Qiuyu rushed over to open the door.

As Ding Yuqin walked in, she saw Li Qiuyu, sweating profusely and slightly disheveled, and then saw Wang Tao, shirtless... At that moment, Ding Yuqin’s mind filled in many scenarios.

"Sister-in-law, is there something you need?"

Wang Tao directly asked.

"Ahem, I’m here to ask if you need any help with dinner..."

Ding Yuqin slightly lowered her head and said.

She clearly seemed like she wanted to get a free meal, but in reality, she wanted to demonstrate her value in front of Wang Tao. She wasn’t sure how else she could help Wang Tao besides cooking, so she chose to come over actively. Of course, if she could get a meal out of it, that would be great, since there hadn’t been food left at her home for a while...

"It’s meal time already... Sure, then I’ll trouble you, sister-in-law. Just follow the amounts from lunch."

Wang Tao nodded, then brought out a large amount of ingredients again.

"Not troublesome, not at all!"

Ding Yuqin was immediately overjoyed and quickly went to the kitchen to get busy.

Li Qiuyu tactfully went to help, and when the meal was almost ready, Wang Tao went to wake Jiang Shixue up.

"Wow! It’s like a dream!"

Seeing such a lavish dinner once again, Jiang Shixue exclaimed in admiration.

Not only her, but Li Qiuyu and Ding Yuqin too had a somewhat unreal feeling. If it weren’t for the occasional howls of zombies from outside, they would have felt as if they’d returned to times before the apocalypse.

After dinner, Ding Yuqin voluntarily went to wash the dishes. She originally wanted to have a chat with Wang Tao and see if she could move along with him after he relocates. But seeing Li Qiuyu constantly by Wang Tao’s side, she was too embarrassed to ask. In the end, she simply headed back.

That night, Li Qiuyu was very sleepy but couldn’t fall asleep, tossing and turning. She was afraid Wang Tao would suddenly make a move; she was somewhat resistant and not ready. Moreover, Jiang Shixue was sharing the bed with her.

But it turned out she was overthinking it. Wang Tao shared some apocalypse survival experiences online that he had summarized himself and then went straight to sleep, alone in peace, without any other thoughts.

The next morning, after giving a heads up to Li Qiuyu, Wang Tao took Taxue and left the Happy Community, heading towards Shuize University.

"It looks pretty good here! As expected of the regular army, it’s done efficiently!"

Above Shuize University, looking at the constructed defense works below, Wang Tao marveled in his heart.

Whoosh—

Wang Tao directly descended onto the rooftop of the administrative building in the center of the university.

He had already sent a message to Xiang Hongbin before coming, so a group of people was waiting on the rooftop for him.

"Mr. Wang, let me introduce you!"

As someone who had interacted with Wang Tao before, Xiang Hongbin naturally initiated the introductions.

"This is Wei Zhenguo, our Security Army squad leader; this is our sharpshooter Lu Gang; this is our county mayor Ren Jie; this is our police chief Song Jinghong, deputy chief Feng Ming’an; this is our technical consultant Liu He..."

Looking at these familiar faces, Wang Tao smiled widely.

This group was precisely the seven committee members of Shuize Base in the last life.

Wang Tao was familiar with most of them, except for Han Rui’s old boss, Song Jinghong, whom he hadn’t met before. Because before Wang Tao arrived at Shuize Base, Song Jinghong had already met his demise. But now, he stood well in front of Wang Tao.

Besides him, Ren Jie, Feng Ming’an, and Liu He were all fine as well.

In the previous life, when Shuize Base encountered a major crisis, Ren Jie and the others voluntarily sacrificed themselves. Wang Tao has always regretted this event. Seeing them again now, Wang Tao was truly happy in his heart. freeweɓnovel~cѳm

"Hello, I am Wang Tao!"

Wang Tao smiled and shook hands with them.

"Hello, hello!"

Facing this ability user, Wang Tao, they were curious and a bit apprehensive. After all, they weren’t familiar with Wang Tao and didn’t know what kind of person he was. Although Wang Tao had saved Xiang Hongbin before, this was the apocalypse, and being cautious wasn’t wrong.

After a brief introduction, Wang Tao directly expressed that he could help them clear the zombies.

This news made Wei Zhenguo and the others overjoyed as they had heard from Xiang Hongbin about Wang Tao’s abilities. With Wang Tao with them, their efficiency and safety would be greatly enhanced!

Wei Zhenguo didn’t hesitate and immediately formulated a plan. They split into three groups: one to clear zombies around the base, another to rescue survivors, and the last one to build the base.

Wang Tao planned to first assist in clearing the surrounding zombies. If they encountered insurmountable trouble during the survivor rescue, Wang Tao also stated they could call him for support.

Thus, a grand cleaning and rescue operation began.
