Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 803 - 314: Awakening Science Popularity_3

Wang Tao asked.

"..."

Qi De and his two companions looked at each other, then shook their heads together.

Some of them were confused when they awakened, and although some absorbed experiences from predecessors and understood a little, the predecessors didn’t know much either, so they were still confused.

Awakening was something that happened in an instant, and since they had only experienced it once, they couldn’t explain it clearly either.

Even Hope Research Institute’s research on awakening wasn’t in-depth. They wanted to capture an Awakener to study, but since the person had already awakened, who would be willing to become a lab rat...

Seeing them shake their heads, Wang Tao frowned and said:

"You don’t understand it at all? Don’t you know that when you awakened, an Ability fused into the awakening? Directly losing one Ability, that should be easy to notice, right?"

"Ah? An Ability fused into the awakening? Really?"

Qi De and the others were shocked.

"Losing an Ability isn’t the price paid for awakening... But now that you mention it, it does seem possible! I lost a passive Ability that improved my physical fitness, and my awakening is akin to an increase in physical fitness. But that Ability’s enhancement was so minor it was almost negligible, whereas my awakening greatly increased it, so I didn’t link the two together..."

Qi De had a moment of realization.

Some things aren’t difficult to understand, but without the right approach, you could remain puzzled forever. With just a hint from Wang Tao, Qi De felt it made sense!

Zhou Long and Huang Wu first frowned, then also appeared to come to a realization.

They both thought carefully about their own conditions, which seemed to really match what Wang Tao was saying!

The two didn’t speak, but their expressions didn’t hide anything, and the others could observe it—what Wang Tao said seemed to be correct!

So, everyone looked at Wang Tao, their eyes bright with eagerness.

For most people, awakening was a very foreign term. Even for them, their understanding of awakening was very superficial. Moreover, with the current scarcity of Awakeners and lack of samples, systematic research was not feasible... hence, the slow progress in research on awakening.

Hearing Wang Tao’s seemingly well-researched take on awakening, and judging by the reactions of the other three Awakeners, people were instantly excited!

If they could really understand what awakening was, did they too have a chance to awaken? Did the hundreds of thousands of people at Changhe Base also have a chance to awaken?

"It seems you’ve already confirmed what I said." Wang Tao smiled and nodded, then continued, "It might be because I’m good at observing. When I awakened, I noticed quite a few things. After some speculation and verification... I’ve roughly summarized some of the patterns of awakening."

"Patterns!"

A gleam of excitement flashed in everyone’s eyes.

Was there really a pattern to awakening?

"I think there are roughly three conditions needed for awakening," he said.

"The first condition is that your own strength must reach the pinnacle of Level 3. This condition is probably known to everyone, as killing zombies and monsters can increase one’s strength. I won’t go into details."

"The second condition is that all your Abilities must be upgraded to Level 4. You should know this one as well—don’t know it? Well, this is also one of the conditions."

"The third condition, which I believe is the most important, is that you have an exceptional skill that is different from ordinary people! It’s difficult to describe what this skill is... I call it ’Hidden Attributes.’ Only with Hidden Attributes, when you kill a Level 4 Lord can you obtain the ’Awakening Key’!"

"Awakening is the fusion of these three conditions—integrating your own strength, one of your Max Level Abilities chosen at random, and your Hidden Ability! If the fusion is successful, that’s awakening. If the fusion fails, your strength will fall slightly, and you’ll need to continue killing zombies. Your Awakening Key will disappear, but your Abilities and Hidden Attributes will still be there..."

"Of course, I’m not necessarily correct, but you can verify this once you have the chance..."

After Wang Tao finished speaking, Qu Shilin personally handed him a cup of water.

"Thank you."

Wang Tao just happened to be thirsty and drank it all in one go.

"It’s I who should thank you!"

Qu Shilin’s eyes were glowing as she looked at Wang Tao.

She couldn’t judge the truth of Wang Tao’s words for the moment. But judging from Qi De and the others’ expressions, Qu Shilin thought there must be some truth to it.

If what Wang Tao said was all true, then it was very valuable knowledge for her and the others!

Even if it couldn’t make them awaken, at least it would let them understand how awakening came about! With this theory from Wang Tao, perhaps following this "pattern," they could produce more Awakeners!

Wang Tao laughed when he heard Qu Shilin’s words.

He was telling the truth, albeit expressed in a different way.

If someone were to follow his instructions—finding a few people with Hidden Attributes, elevating them to the Third Order Peak, ensuring all their Abilities are Max Level, and then killing a Level 4 Lord to get the Awakening Key, then surely some among them would awaken. After all, the probability of a successful first awakening was 50%...

For Wang Tao, sharing this information was just a matter of speaking; it cost him nothing. But if his words resulted in the emergence of many Awakeners, that was definitely what he hoped to see. With more human Awakeners, the chances of surviving the apocalypse would increase. Find exclusive stories on novelbuddy

Although the River Base seemed very safe for now, who could predict the future?

And now, with the appearance of Flying Zombies, Changhe Base didn’t seem as safe as before...

People were digesting Wang Tao’s words. Mainly this Hidden Attribute, according to Wang Tao, those who possessed Hidden Attributes were the seeds of Awakening! If only they could find a way to discover this Hidden Attribute...

At this moment, Gu Yun reminded them:

"The fog from the Dual-tail Scorpion has dissipated."

Everyone immediately snapped back to reality.

Wang Tao’s words would need to be thoroughly studied later. But now, it was time to check out the spoils of war!

Seeing the corpse of the Dual-tail Scorpion, Wang Tao quietly said to Gu Yun:

"Give me that Iron Beetle."

Wang Tao didn’t take the Iron Beetle Weapon but had Gu Yun keep it safe.

Gu Yun immediately gestured, retrieved the Iron Beetle from one of his subordinates’ briefcases, then asked in puzzlement:

"What is this..."

"Remember I mentioned it had another powerful feature, but the conditions weren’t met then? Now... the conditions are sufficient."
