“Wang Tao, what’s the matter?”
Han Rui looked at Wang Tao with some curiosity.
“I’m fine. You finish off the zombies from now on.”
Since he no longer gained HP from killing elite zombies, it would be a waste not to let Han Rui take them down.
“Ah? Really? You’re not going to increase your strength anymore?”
Han Rui was somewhat excited, she obviously wanted to become stronger, but it had been agreed that Wang Tao would be the focus.
-I’ve reached the limit already, I can’t enhance my strength for the time being.”
Wang Tao shook his head with a sense of helplessness.
“Limit?”
Han Rui was taken aback.
-Yes, I’ve reached the limit of Level 1, and I need to figure out how to ascend to Level 2. Otherwise, killing these elite zombies will be pointless…”
Previously, when he had 1000 HP, killing ordinary zombies wouldn’t increase his HP, and only killing elite zombies would work.
But this time the situation was different from before; at least he could increase his HP to 1000 previously, but now he was stuck at 4999 and couldn t ascend any further.
He had previously guessed that you need 5000 HP for a Level 2 Ascension, but that HP couldn’t be achieved just by killing zombies. Wang Tao felt the key must lie in the Crystal Core.
The day before yesterday when he killed Shao Yong, he obtained a Level 2
Ascension Crystal Core. This crystal core could enhance an Ability to Level 2.
And only after an Ability User ascended to Level 2 could they merge with a Level 2 Crystal Core.
Could there be a possibility that in order to ascend to Level 2, Ability Users first need to enhance their own abilities to Level 2?
Perhaps Wang Tao needed to elevate his own Ability to Level 2 first in order to continue gaining HP from killing zombies!
If that’s the case, then Wang Tao would be quite helpless.
After all, he had learned four abilities. He surely wouldn’t need to enhance all four abilities to Level 2, would he? Or would having just one Level 2 Ability suffice?
If only one Ability needed to be upgraded for him to achieve a Level 2 Ascension, then it wouldn’t be too bad.
But if all four abilities needed to be ascended… never mind whether he could kill enough Level 2 Zombies, just finding that many Level 2 Zombies wouldn’t be easy!
As far as he knew, the only Level 2 Zombies were the deceased Shao Yong, the hooded zombie with 6000 HP he had just seen, and the gorilla zombie with 10,000 HP. Other than those, he had not seen any other Level 2 Zombies.
He definitely couldn’t defeat the gorilla zombie, though he might think of a way to deal with the hooded zombie. But even if he could kill it, the number of crystal cores would still be insufficient… what a headache!
Shaking his head, Wang Tao decided not to dwell on it further and focused on working with Han Rui to kill the zombies.
The loudspeaker that Wang Tao had prepared might have been smashed by the hooded zombie, but it still drew many elite zombies outside the hospital.
Taking advantage of the effects of the Stealth Potion, Wang Tao and Han Rui went on a rampage against the zombies. With the potion and crossbow arrows, the zombies couldn’t detect them at all.
It took two days, but the thirty-odd elite zombies that had emerged were all killed by the two of them.
Wang Tao also conducted an experiment and found that after reaching 4999 HP, indeed he could no longer increase his HP limit.
Other than the one he tested, all the other zombies were killed by Han Rui.
Han Rui thoroughly enjoyed the slaughter!
She directly added almost two thousand HP! Her total HP had reached “3030”!
In fact, they had felt that these zombies could have been dealt with in one afternoon, but because Han Rui’s HP increase required sleeping, some time was wasted.
Of course, Han Rui’s pace was still very fast, much faster than Wei Zhenguo and the others.
There was no helping it; after all, with Wang Tao covering for her and the abundance of elite zombies here, her enhancement was bound to be rapid.
After these zombies were killed, however, there were no more elite zombies outside the hospital. To continue killing, they either had to draw them out or go in.
Wang Tao’s loudspeaker was gone, making it hard to lure the zombies, so the two decided to hunt inside the hospital.
But Wang Tao hadn’t forgotten that Shao Yong, with his strong abilities, had been trapped inside the hospital.
So they decided to just linger at the entrance of the hospital and not venture too deep.
However, they discovered after entering the hospital that there didn’t seem to be many elite zombies left.
“Could they have been killed off? That can’t be right! There were so many before…”
Wang Tao looked at the big hole created by the gorilla zombie in the inpatient building and felt that zombies might be inside.
“Forget it, let’s not think about the zombies inside the building. Let’s just clear out the ones in the courtyard.”
Wang Tao thought it was best to play it safe.
“Hmm!”
Han Rui naturally had no objections.
There weren’t many elite zombies in the courtyard, only 8 in total, which brought Han Rui’s HP up to “3470”.
The two decided to call it quits and returned directly to the apartment.
“We’ll wait one more day, and if those zombies inside the building don’t come out, then we’ll head home.”
Wang Tao pondered.
Actually, he wanted to increase Han Rui’s HP to four thousand, as the opportunity was rare.
But unfortunately, the zombies inside the hospital wouldn’t come out!
If these zombies came out, Wang Tao not only wanted to increase Han Rui’s HP to four thousand but also thought about bringing Wei Zhenguo over to enhance everyone’s HP.
As long as everyone’s strength increased, Wang Tao could get them to help him hunt down Level 2 Zombies!
But while the imagination is beautiful, reality is cruel.
By the next day, not only were there no elite zombies left in the hospital, but even the ordinary zombies had vanished…
“Forget it, let’s retreat!”
With no other choice, Wang Tao decided to head home for some rest..
