Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 1094 - 440 Mysterious Shadow_2
Chapter 1094: Chapter 440 Mysterious Shadow_2
Chapter 1094 -440 Mysterious Shadow_2
Unless he had teammates nearby to help him draw out the attack and reduce the HP, he truly couldn’t defeat them.
Although it was normal that he couldn’t defeat them, since the zombies outranked him by a significant amount, Wang Tao still felt somewhat dissatisfied.
He believed there were two reasons he couldn’t win.
One was that he didn’t understand why, when he first started attacking, he kept seeing “[0]”, which caused Wang Tao to waste a lot of time and energy.
The other was that he simply couldn’t dodge the Big Hammer Zombie Lord’s ultimate attack. It wasn’t that Wang Tao was slow, but the area of effect was just too large!
At that moment, Wang Tao had already moved quite fast, about fifty meters away from the Big Hammer Zombie, yet he was still hit by the shockwave.
Even assuming a radius of fifty meters, the area of this shockwave would be about eight thousand square meters, even larger than a football field!
With such a large range, unless one could teleport or fly, evasion was simply impossible.
Although using this move cost the Big Hammer Zombie Lord fifty thousand HP, Wang Tao lost a hundred thousand HP! He had a total of only one hundred eighty thousand HP, and two hits were enough to deplete it…
Therefore, unless he could ascertain the specific details of this Big Hammer Zombie Lord, Wang Tao felt that his chances of winning were still low.
But figuring that out wasn’t too difficult, especially since the items dropped by the zombies provided some clues!
After rapidly consuming some food, Wang Tao told the others:
“You guys keep eating, I’m going to study the loot.”
“Okay!”
“Hopefully there’s something good! We almost went down, they better drop some nice stuff.”
The group said, laughing.
They had also gotten used to Wang Tao being able to figure out the purpose of some items, considering it one of Wang Tao’s talents.
Wang Tao went into a small room, his own room. Everyone in this tent had a private room, including Lightning, which was quite considerate.
Then, Wang Tao started to inspect the loot, but he didn’t rush to look at the Big Hammer Zombie Lord’s items, instead starting with the loot of the first Dark Fog Zombie he had killed.
The Dark Fog Zombie dropped three physical items and four loot packs.
The first item dropped was a crystal core.
[Fifth Order Crystal Core: Psychic Attack Rebound]
[Quality: 80% (Excellent)]
[Purity: 30% (Side Effect: Reduced Defensive Power)]
[Psychic Attack Rebound: Passive Ability, when hit by a psychic attack, there is a small probability to rebound double the damage (If rebound is triggered, it will consume Awakening Energy, without Awakening Energy the rebound cannot occur. Only a Psychic Awakener can use this)]
“…”
Seeing this crystal core, Wang Tao couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
He hadn’t expected that the Dark Fog Zombie would have such an ability!
It was good that he hadn’t used a psychic attack on the Dark Fog Zombie then, otherwise if he had been unlucky and faced a double damage rebound, that would have been a disaster!
Plus, Wang Tao thought that the Dark Fog Zombie was easy to handle, partly because its defense was reduced…
However, talking back, although the core was powerful, Wang Tao himself wasn’t interested, because it stated “small probability” of rebounding psychic damage… Probability-related things, especially those that specified a small probability, Wang Tao found unreliable.
If it were before level four, Wang Tao wouldn’t mind learning it as he could fuse abilities. But now, he couldn’t fuse abilities and could only learn four, each slot being extremely precious.
If he wasn’t going to use it himself, then it was unlikely others could use it either, especially since Psychic Awakeners are rare…
“I’ll stash it for now. Whether it’s used or not, its side effect of reducing defense needs to be dealt with first, we’ll see later who needs it…”
The second loot was a material.
[Acquired: Dark Tooth x4]
[Dark Tooth: Crafting Material]
Wang Tao stowed the materials and looked toward the third item.
This was something… well, Wang Tao felt it was just a beam of light? Only it was emitting a black light… no, to be precise, black should be absorbing light, so was the thing, the size of a fingernail on his hand, absorbing the surrounding light?
[Obtained: Mysterious Shadow x1]
[Mysterious Shadow: After release, it will grow into a Dark Beast. After absorption, it will grant a hidden attribute.]
Wang Tao hadn’t seen good things that could increase hidden attributes for a while, but today he finally did!
The introduction of this “Mysterious Shadow” is similar to the “Magic Flame” he obtained before, both of which can definitely grant hidden attributes without any side effects!
When Wang Tao first used the Magic Flame, he obtained another hidden attribute [Fire Element], not knowing its use at the time, but after awakening [Starfire Outbreak], he realized how powerful it was.
So this “Mysterious Shadow” should be… related to the dark series? If there is a dark series.
Many people are still stuck at Level 3, and without similar items, they might never awaken in their lifetime, so the value of this “Mysterious Shadow” is evident.
Even Wang Tao was tempted to try fusing it himself, but after thinking it over, he decided against it.
A person can only obtain up to four hidden attributes. If they acquire a fifth hidden attribute, it will randomly replace one of the original hidden attributes.
Wang Tao already had four hidden attributes: Fire Element, Night Vision, Body Strengthening, and Plant Affinity.
Although both the “Fire Element” and “Night Vision” attributes had awakened, they still occupied the slots. The remaining “Body Strengthening” and “Plant Affinity” hidden attributes, Wang Tao found very useful… so he decided to let it go.
He would save this “Mysterious Shadow” for now, to see if anyone in the team is willing to undergo a second awakening…
After checking these three physical Loot Packs, the remaining were five Loot Packs.
The first Loot Pack contained a Crystal Core Gift Bag, which included a total of five Crystal Cores.
They were Orange [Fifth Order Crystal Core: Omnipotence], Red [Fifth Order Crystal Core: Promotion], Blue [Fifth Order Crystal Core: Awakening], Purple [Fifth Order Crystal Core: Mental Defense], and Red [Fifth Order Crystal Core: Ice Attribute Defense].
All were Crystal Cores Wang Tao had seen before, and all were good items, which he gladly accepted.
The second Loot Pack contained a pearl.
[Obtained: Awakening Energy Pearl x1]
Another pearl, which Wang Tao happily collected, his Awakening Energy had almost run out, and later he could use a Crystal Core or the pearl to recover some energy, as having no Awakening Energy felt unsafe.
The third Loot Pack contained a physical awakening key.
[Obtained: Awakening Key x1]
Wang Tao had dozens of physical awakening keys, but unfortunately, none were advanced. The ordinary keys could be used to attempt awakening again for those who had failed their first awakening, but it didn’t feel very safe… He would ask them for their opinions later. If they decided to awaken, Wang Tao wouldn’t be stingy with the keys.
The fourth Loot Pack contained potions.
[Obtained: Dark Attribute Enhancement Potion x10]
[Obtained: Dark Attribute Defense Potion x10]
Wang Tao guessed right; there were indeed Dark Attribute potions! Their effects were similar to previous Ice Attribute potions.
[Dark Attribute Enhancement Potion: After injection, increases one’s own Dark Attribute damage by 10% for 1 minute, cooldown 12 hours]

[Dark Attribute Defense Potion: After injection, increases one’s own Dark Attribute Defense by 10% for 1 minute, cooldown 12 hours]
The last Loot Pack contained a Blueprint, but this time there was only one.
[Obtained: Dark Night Bracelet Blueprint x1]
[Dark Night Bracelet Blueprint: Can be used to craft a Dark Night Bracelet. Required materials: Dark Tooth x1, Fifth Order Crystal Core x1]
[Dark Night Bracelet: Attributes unknown]
“Another bracelet? It seems to bestow Dark Attributes? But it uses a Fifth Order Crystal Core…”
Wang Tao was very interested in this bracelet, so he immediately began crafting it.
Moments later, the bracelet was crafted.
[Dark Night Bracelet]
[Fifth Order (Excellent)]
[Attack carries Dark Property Damage, Dark Attribute Attack +20]
