“Cough, I… I was hoping you could come over to my place.

Han Rui said, somewhat embarrassed.

“Sure.”

Wang Tao drove to Han Rui’s house. Sun Weiguang was not there. frёewebnoѵēl.com

“Let me get you some food…”

Han Rui quickly tried to get up.

Forget it, let’s just have something simple.”

Wang Tao took out several bottles of nutrient supplements and handed two to Han Rui.

There probably wasn’t much good food at Han Rui’s place, maybe just some gruel exchanged with ration tickets, Wang Tao thought it was easier to have the nutrient supplements.

“Oh…”

Han Rui found the nutrient supplements quite palatable. After drinking one bottle, she felt like she could have more.

Then she looked at Wang Tao with some anticipation and said,

“Could you, urn, not leave tonight…?”

“Huh?”

“It’s not what you think, it’s just that I… I’m a little scared…”

“Okay.”

Seeing Han Rui with hands clasped together and a pleading look on her face Wang Tao nodded. After all, it didn’t matter where he slept.

ter washing up, they lay on the bed, with Han Rui snuggling into Wang Tao’s arms, her head resting on his chin. Wang Tao held Han Rui, smelling the fragrance of her shampoo. Neither of them spoke or showed much interest in doing so. After all, the things they had seen during the day were still vivid in their minds.

Once he felt that Han Rui was alright, Wang Tao turned his attention to his earnings for the day.

Although the things he experienced today were not pleasant, the gains were substantial.

Before going out, his HP was [2650], then he killed those four Elite Zombies on the third basement floor of the underground mall, with each zombie adding 5o HP, increasing his total HP by 200. On the way back, he encountered a few more Elite Zombies, one adding 5o HP and two adding 40 HP each, so now he’s at [2968/2980] HP.

He was just 20 HP short of 3000, which was deliberately controlled by Wang Tao. He encountered several Elite Zombies on the road, but he only killed three, leaving the rest for Wei Zhenguo, Han Rui, and the others.

The main reason was that there was still some distance to the base, and Wang Tao was afraid that something might go wrong if he fell into deep sleep. For safety, he dared not increase his HP to 3000 at that time.

NOW that he’s only 20 HP away, he just has to go out again tomorrow and kill any special zombie at random.

Besides the increase in HP, his gains included the Crystal Cores and spoils from Killing the zombies.

The Crystal Cores dropped by those four Elite Zombies in the third basement were Toughness, Shockwave, Slime Spitter, and Rush. freewēbnoveℓ.com

But they looked different from the Elite Zombies he had seen before not having any pronounced features. For example, a Terrorizer would always hold a heavy weapon, and an Attacker’s body would be deformed, with one side much larger, etc.

Wang Tao speculated that this was probably related to their original identities. They were Ability Users who had fused with Zombie Cores and were then infected and turned into zombies, not those naturally evolved zombies.

Not only did they look different, but their Crystal Cores were also different from those of native zombies, being all green but dark green.

[Level 1 Crystal Core-Toughness]

[Quality: Rare (55%)]

[Purity: 50% (Side effects: Darkening of the skin, body stiffening)]

The Toughness Crystal Core was 55% rare quality, which was the first time Wang Tao had seen such a number.

The green Crystal Core that he had gotten from Cao Xin, the hitman, was 50% rare quality, but that core was light green and had no side effects.

This core, however, was dark green and came with side effects.

Compared to an ordinary Crystal Core, other than the fact that its quality is a bit strange, there aren’t any significant differences.

The other three Crystal Cores are also deep green in color.

[Level 1 Crystal Core-Shockwave]

[Quality: Rare (55%)]

[Purity: 50% (Side effect: light sensitivity in eyes)]

[Level 1 Crystal CoreSlime Spitter]

[Quality: Rare (55%)]

[Purity: 50% (Side effect: enlarged stomach, reduced defense)]

[Level 1 Crystal Core-Rush]

[Quality: Rare (55%)]

[Purity: 50% (Side effect: limb stiffness)]

Looking at these four Crystal Cores, all with a rarity of 55°/0, Wang Tao felt that eir Crystal Cores were slowly transforming from human towards zombie…

While they were still human, their Crystal Cores should be like Cao Xin’s, with a 50% quality and no side effects.

But after turning into zombies, their Crystal Cores were also slowly morphing towards the zombie state, hence the natural emergence of side effects. Perhaps, after some time, they would become those Elite Zombies with more distinct physical characteristics, and the quality of their Crystal Cores might become 60% Excellent…

Of course, these were all Wang Tao’s speculations, to know the specifics, further observation was needed.

Besides the Crystal Cores, these four zombies naturally dropped loot as well. [Slime Grenade Blueprint xi], [slime Grenade x5], [Defense Potion x5] [Strength Potion x5], [Rush Right Knee Blueprint xi][Rush Left Knee Blueprint XI J.

Slime Grenades and Potions are common items. What made Wang Tao’s eyes light up was the “Rush Knee Guards.”

[Rush Right Knee Blueprint: Can be used to craft a knee guard. Required materials: Iron Block X2, Steel Wire x2, Screws x2, Blade X2, Nails X2, Rubber X2, Plastic X2, Cable X2, Electronic Components X2, Battery X2]

[Rush Right Knee: Tough in texture, can block blades and firearms. Durability +10, defensive power +10]

The attributes of these Rush Knee Guards seemed to be similar to the Rush Arm Guard, so the effect was probably about the same. Maybe they would provide additional speed and strength for knee strikes?

However, Wang Tao rarely used hand-to-hand combat techniques when fighting zombies; he would just swing his axe at vital spots, since zombies didn t know how to dodge anyway.

Actually, whether it had attributes or not didn’t really matter; the main point was that this equipment provided strong defense!

Even just as a protective gear, it was very comfortable.

Moreover, what was more important was that he got both designs at once both left and right knee guards!

He had all the materials, so now he could craft them.

Wang Tao looked down to see Han Rui.

She had already fallen asleep in his arms.

So, Wang Tao took the items out and placed them on the bed.

Craft!

With a thought, a flash of light passed.

Two matte black knee guards appeared in front of Wang Tao..
