Although the fusion was successful this time, Wang Tao felt a bit frightened afterward.
He had a premonition that with his current strength, he could only fuse one or two more different types of crystal cores before he couldn’t continue. Otherwise, it would definitely lead to disaster.
Now he finally understood what that feeling meant.
The first time he fused with a Zombie Core, he hardly felt anything; it was done in the blink of an eye.
When fusing the second type of crystal core, he just felt a bit of heat in his body, but it wasn’t uncomfortable, and he felt fine after lying in bed for a while.
But this time, when fusing the third type of crystal core, his body felt very hot, and he was somewhat dizzy, just like having a high fever—in fact, his body temperature really was very high, having reached over 50 degrees Celsius.
If he were to fuse a fourth crystal core, he estimated his body temperature would be even higher. He didn’t dare to imagine just how high.
As for fusing a fifth different type of crystal core… Wang Tao felt there was no need to court death. He was certain that even if he managed to successfully fuse a fourth core, the fifth would definitely fail. Maybe he would combust on the spot during the attempt…
Wang Tao thought it was better to be cautious, improve his strength first, and then try fusing different types of crystal cores. As for the same type of cores, there were no issues. If it weren’t for the fact that he didn’t have any suitable cores on hand, he would have fused one already.
However, Wang Tao was curious about how many different types of cores other people could fuse. He wondered if anyone could fuse more than him.
“Wang Tao, are you alright…”
Looking at Ding Yuqin, who was clutching him tightly, Wang Tao smiled and said,
“Sister-in-law, don’t worry, I’m fine now.”
“Huuuh—Your body was so hot just now, and you didn’t respond when I talked to you… You scared me to death!”
Ding Yuqin looked visibly relieved; had it not been for Wang Tao’s prior cautioning, she probably would have called for a doctor immediately.
Looking at the beads of sweat on Ding Yuqin’s forehead, Wang Tao suddenly extended his hand and pulled her into the bathtub.
“Ah—”
“Sister-in-law, you’ve sweated so much, let’s take a good wash together!”
After fusing the crystal cores, Wang Tao felt his vitality was excessively robust and needed to be expended.
“…You’re so naughty-”
The next day.
After Wang Tao got up, Ding Yuqin had just finished making breakfast.
“Wang Tao, it’s time to eat!”
Wang Tao loved Ding Yuqin’s diligent attitude.
While having breakfast, Wang Tao glanced at his Space Backpack.
After the fusion yesterday, having excessive energy, he and Ding Yuqin went to have an in-depth discussion about life. After their discussion, he slept until morning and hadn’t had time to take a good look at it yet.
The armed police zombie he had managed to kill had dropped not only a Zombie Crystal Core but also a package and the handgun it held.
[Police Handgun xi][9mm Bullet xio]
The handgun dropped by the police zombie contained 10 bullets. But this handgun was loaded with a 15-round magazine, which means the zombie had fired 5 shots—it really could shoot!
It’s just unknown how accurate the zombie was. If it was on par with the Archer Zombie, that would be terrifying! After all, guns have not only long-range killing power, but they’re also very loud…
Although there are only 10 bullets, Wang Tao didn’t mind. Because these bullets can be placed inside the Space Backpack. In other words, like the bow and arrows, he can take them out anytime, anywhere!
At critical moments, it might become a trump card. This thing is more concealed than a bow and arrows, and it can be used right after being drawn.
Apart from these two items, the police zombie Wang Tao had killed also dropped schematics and a potion—
[9mm Bullet Blueprint xi]
[Eyesight Potion (Small) Recipe xi]
[Eyesight Potion (Small) x2]
Wang Tao was surprised to have gotten a bullet blueprint; it was a good item because items made from blueprints can be stored in the Space Backpack.
[9mm Bullet Blueprints: Allows the creation of 100 bullets, required materials: Blade xio, Iron Block xio, Chemicals xio]
With 100 bullets, all of which could be stored in the Space Backpack, he wouldn’t have to worry about running out.
Although under current circumstances, he probably wouldn’t need to use a gun. But while he may not need to use it, he couldn’t afford to be without it!
The Eyesight Potion is a potion that enhances vision.
[Eyesight Potion (Small) Recipe: Once learned, you can make 5 Eyesight Potions (Small) each time. Required materials: Eyesight Carrot, Zombie Crystal Core xi, Purified Water 100ml, 10 kilocalories of food]
This Eyesight Potion recipe was similar to the previous ones; Wang Tao could only learn it, but he couldn’t make it since he didn’t have the key ingredients.
[Eyesight Potion (Small): Upon injection, vision increases by 3-10 times (enhancement effect related to the health of the eyes), lasting for 1 minute with a cooldown of 12 hours]
The introduction of the Eyesight Potion sounded pretty good, but it was unclear exactly what aspect of vision was improved—whether it was to see further limits or to see more details within a certain range, or an all-around enhancement?
If he had the chance, Wang Tao could give it a try, but he currently only had two bottles of Eyesight Potion, so there was no need to waste them.
However, Wang Tao felt it was quite unfriendly to people with myopia, because the enhancement effect was related to the health of the eyes… Fortunately, he had no issues with his own eyes.
After breakfast, Ding Yuqin went to wash the dishes. Wang Tao didn’t rush out but instead took out materials and used all the blueprints he had.
No need to mention the Eyesight Potion Recipe, that could be learned directly. He had already learnt it..
