Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 904 - 356: Hatching the Night Demon
```
Hearing the gang leader’s low complaint, Wang Tao suddenly said:
"Underground City? Could you elaborate on that?"
The boss was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly replied:
"Sure! But I don’t yet know your esteemed name, sir..."
"Ordinary member of the Starfire Society, Wang Tao."
When reporting names here, it’s common to include the faction one belongs to. It helps everyone quickly decide whether they should make contact or not, especially since some factions are enemies with each other.
"Starfire Society?"
They hadn’t heard of Wang Tao’s name, nor could they assess Wang Tao’s strength. But they had heard of the Starfire Society, which, after all, was a relatively famous force in Changhe Base lately.
Of course, they didn’t know much about the Starfire Society, only that it was a powerful but very mysterious force. Although Wang Tao was an ordinary member of the Starfire Society, his strength shouldn’t be weak, right?
"So Mr. Wang is a big shot from the Starfire Society! Nice to meet you! My name is Wen Guocheng, the boss of the Wild Lion Guild, and these are..."
After Wen Guocheng introduced himself, he went on to introduce his four teammates one by one.
There were five people in Wen Guocheng’s group, besides Wen Guocheng himself, who was a level 3 ability user, the others were all level 2.
A level 3 plus four level 2s, and they managed to escape so many Night Demons by running... it has to be said, they had something going for them.
"Nice to meet you all."
Wang Tao nodded with a smile to the several people, appearing very approachable. However, when his gaze turned to the only female ability user in their team, he couldn’t help but take a second look.
It wasn’t because of her looks—her appearance was just passable in Wang Tao’s opinion—but because among the five of them, only this woman had hidden attributes.
In other words, without any outside help, only this woman had a chance for awakening, while the other four had not the slightest chance.
[HP: 7400/16000]
[Mana: 3640/8000]
[Grade: Level 2]
[Internal Impurity: 40%]
[Hidden attribute: Persistence]
[Persistence: Patience above ordinary people]
But this woman’s hidden attribute... Wang Tao felt it was a bit mediocre. After all, which ability user that had survived until now didn’t have persistence? Regardless of strength, at the very least their willpower was commendable.
Of course, although hidden attributes are related to awakening, they do not indicate the strength of the awakening.
Even if it’s a trifle now, as long as she can awaken, nothing is a problem.
Speaking of hidden attributes, Wang Tao suddenly thought of something—if he had these eyes that could see through others’ attributes, and if he brought all the people with hidden attributes into the Starfire Society, wouldn’t their Starfire Society become outrageously strong?
After a brief contemplation, Wang Tao shook his head.
This idea sounded good, but awakening was not as simple as just having a hidden attribute.
Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.
In his team, except for a few individuals, everyone else had hidden attributes, but only a few had awakened.
To awaken everyone, regardless of the time or effort spent, would be enormous.
And with more people, various troubles might arise, unless he had the power to quell everything...
Meanwhile, Wen Guocheng noticed Wang Tao’s gaze linger a few extra moments on Fu Yu, and he thought Wang Tao might be interested in the flower of their team, which made him immediately nervous.
In the apocalypse, especially in the wilderness, being interested in someone is not about wanting to date them, it could lead to fatal trouble!
Fu Yu, the person being watched, was also very nervous. Even though Wang Tao was handsome, strong, and seemed to exude a sense of security, it was still the wilds of the apocalypse. If she caught the fancy of a powerful individual, at best she could be abused, at worst her life could be at risk!
Seeing the few people opposite him becoming tense, Wang Tao was somewhat confused.
He believed his ability to hide his presence was quite good. Could it be that he exuded what was known as a king’s aura? One look from him and he frightened them considerably?
Although puzzled, Wang Tao didn’t care too much and turned his gaze back to Wen Guocheng.
Wen Guocheng immediately spoke up sensibly:
"About that Night Demon’s Nest..."
The Night Demon’s Nest was located in an underground mall in the town next door.
The space of the underground mall itself was not small, and there was an abandoned air-raid shelter nearby; somehow the two had become connected... so the underground space was not only large but also intricate. If one got lost inside, even without the Night Demons, it would be hard to find a way out.
The reason Wen Guocheng and his group were able to get out was first that they didn’t venture deep—if they had gone deeper considering the number of Night Demons they encountered, they would have surely died.
Second, they had parts of the map of the air-raid shelter—they thought that having the map meant even if they encountered danger, they wouldn’t get lost and end up in a dead end. In fact, it was indeed the map that guided them out. Without it, they would probably have died by now.
Lastly, their team leader Wen Guocheng had an ability for group speed enhancement, which he used to keep accelerating them...
As for the situation inside the Night Demon’s Nest, it could be summed up in one word—horrifying.
The nest was covered with Incubation Flesh, and unformed Night Demons were everywhere. Dense and unending, it was as if they had entered the hell of Night Demons.
When they first saw this, they were somewhat deterred. But remembering what they had heard, that a special herb grew inside Night Demon nests which could enhance one’s strength upon consumption, they decided to take the risk.
However, they were very cautious and didn’t disturb the unformed Night Demons or the Incubation Flesh. Who knew that there would be so many Night Demons inside the cave! Even though there were no level 4s, the sheer number of level 3 Night Demons was too much!
