Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 1702 - 719 Level 2 Ascension
Chapter 1702: Chapter 719 Level 2 Ascension
The number of survivors in Shuize County was much more than Wang Tao had imagined.
In the previous life, when Wang Tao came to the Shuize Base, there were only about three hundred survivors.
But now, Wang Tao joined Wei Zhenguo and the others in several rescue operations, and in just one day, they had already saved a thousand survivors. Continuing for a few more days, it seemed breaking three thousand at the Shuize Base wouldn’t be a problem!
However, when Wang Tao thought about it, it seemed reasonable.
After all, in his previous life, when he came to the Shuize Base, it was already one month after the apocalypse had begun. Most survivors couldn’t hold out for a month. But now it was only the fifth day since the apocalypse started, as long as survivors didn’t face zombies directly, they could still persist.
Additionally, the network signal had not been cut off, allowing survivors to communicate with each other. Sometimes an ordinary piece of information from one survivor could save another survivor’s life. Especially with people sharing information about the Survivor Base, it gave many survivors hope. As long as people have hope, they can continue to persevere.
Of course, the most important factor was Wang Tao’s intervention.
With his abundant physical strength, Wang Tao was practically invincible. So far, he hadn’t encountered any rivals. Moreover, there was the Black Cat Snow by his side, which was a solid Level 1 Lord. Most zombies were no match for it.
Any rescue operation Wang Tao participated in had never failed and always resulted in a perfect mission where all survivors were saved.
Given all these favorable conditions, saving a thousand people in one day seemed reasonable.
Wang Tao was busy all day, truly tired. But the rewards were abundant, making the fatigue worthwhile. Not to mention saving so many people, the crystal cores obtained from slaying zombies far exceeded his own estimates.
Initially, he estimated that he would need six or seven days to ascend to Level Two, but based on today’s results, it might only take three or four days!
So Wang Tao expressed his willingness to continue helping Wei Zhenguo and the others in saving survivors tomorrow and the day after, which really moved them.
After all, they were tasked by superiors, saving survivors was their job. Although Wang Tao’s strength was formidable, he wasn’t obliged to help. His willingness to help without reservation was indeed a display of great righteousness.
Therefore, Wei Zhenguo and the others offered Wang Tao the chance to pick from the crystal cores they obtained from hunting zombies if he needed any.
Wang Tao naturally accepted the offer, but advised them not to randomly fuse the crystal cores, as the ones with strong side effects couldn’t be undone once fused. He promised to help them select suitable ones later for fusion.
From Wang Tao, they learned about the functions of the crystal cores. Despite their eagerness, the side effects were no joke, potentially ruining one’s life. So they remained cautious and agreed to wait.

When Wang Tao returned to the Happy Community, it was already deep into the night. free𝑤ebnovel.com
Ding Yuqin heard some noise at Wang Tao’s door, quickly opened it to take a look, and upon seeing it was Wang Tao, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Wang Tao was strong, with so many zombies outside and Wang Tao gone for the whole day, she was still a bit worried.
"You haven’t slept yet?"
Wang Tao turned and asked.
"Uh... I’ll sleep soon, it’s just... cough, I was a bit worried about you... seeing you back, I’m relieved..."
As Ding Yuqin said this, she couldn’t look Wang Tao in the eye.
"Then thank you for your concern." Wang Tao smiled and then asked, "By the way, have you eaten?"
"No..."
Ding Yuqin shook her head a bit embarrassedly.
There was food in Wang Tao’s home, but with him gone all day and two women in his house, she felt too awkward to come over and have a meal.
"Why don’t you make some supper at my place, I’m hungry too, let’s eat together."
Wang Tao had eaten at Shuize Base, but due to the high physical exertion and having slain many zombies on the way back, he was indeed a bit hungry.
"Okay!"
Ding Yuqin was instantly delighted and quickly followed Wang Tao inside.
Upon entering, she saw Li Qiuyu and Jiang Shixue sleeping soundly on the sofa, snuggled up together.
Clearly, they too were waiting for Wang Tao to return.
"Just boil some noodles, tomato and egg noodles will do," Wang Tao directed Ding Yuqin.
"Alright!"
Ding Yuqin immediately ran to the kitchen to cook.
Then Wang Tao turned to Taxue, asking if it wanted to eat. Taxue used its small head to nudge Wang Tao, indicating it wanted canned fish.
While rescuing survivors today, Wang Tao passed by a pet shop that held no pets but plenty of cat food. Taxue loved the cat food, so Wang Tao gathered it as snacks for Taxue later.
"Alright."
Wang Tao took a can of fish from the Space Backpack, Taxue meowed gratefully before scampering off with the can.
Wang Tao smiled and shook his head, then went to the sofa, gazing at the sleeping duo without waking them, he picked Jiang Shixue up and carried her into the guest room.
Jiang Shixue woke up groggily but felt at ease seeing Wang Tao, and quickly closed her eyes again. The recent events had been too overwhelming for her; a simple young girl surviving in the wilderness for so long surely needed several days of good rest to recuperate.
Then Wang Tao carried Li Qiuyu into the guest room.
