As they say, it's tough for the most skilled cook to make als without any rice, and Zhang Yanhang, as an alchemist, indeed found it challenging to concoct anything useful without the right materials.
"Forget it, even though it only has 8 attack power, it's definitely enough for hacking zombies..." After all, zombies that could be easily bullied with a baseball bat ant his chopper, which was at least made of iron, coupled with Zhang Yanhang's strength, would surely be sufficient for killing zombies.
"Next up, it's ti to go next door and kill so zombies. I rember from the earlier options that there was a police zombie next door." Zhang Yanhang reorganized his belongings, still using the sa shoulder bag for carrying items, but this ti he packed much less—only an enemy seeking radar, one small magic recovery potion, and a room key.
As for the other small magic recovery potions, Zhang Yanhang felt he didn't need so many, so he left them in the room, given that his energy value was almost full.
Then, there were things like alchemy materials, mineral water, and canned food that he temporarily didn't need; he piled all of them together with the small magic potions.
Zhang Yanhang had already checked with the enemy seeking radar and found that only the corridors on the fifth and sixth floors had a few scattered zombies. So, all he needed to do next was to clear each room one by one along the corridor.
Although he didn't know how many soul points a regular zombie would provide, Zhang Yanhang felt he should be able to level up to LV. 4 quite soon. Currently, he was still 270 soul points away from LV. 4.
After locking the door, Zhang Yanhang carried his chopper and went straight to the neighboring apartnt 302. When he knocked on the anti-theft door of 302 and heard the familiar zombie roar from inside, Zhang Yanhang nodded with satisfaction.
"This position is a bit inconvenient; maybe I can adjust it," observed Zhang Yanhang, seeing the position of the zombie was right in the center of the room according to the enemy seeking radar. So, he knocked on the door a few more tis.
Once he had lured the zombie to a position directly behind the door, Zhang Yanhang delivered a solid kick to the anti-theft door. Accompanied by a loud bang, the shattered door, with its massive kinetic energy, sent the zombie behind it flying.
Zhang Yanhang stepped leisurely into the room, looking at the zombie lying immobile beneath the door. He felt very satisfied and began his experint—yes, the reason why he dealt with the zombie in such a troubleso fashion was he had a purpose. He wondered if he could view the attributes list of enemies since he could see the list for both his equipnt and himself.
[Police Zombie (Ordinary)]
[Level: First Tier 0 Stars]
[Talent: 1. Slow Corrosion. 2. T-virus Carrier (Evolution Failure).]
[Slow Corrosion: In a zombie state, rotting speed slows down by 90%, and the rate of physical strength consumption is reduced by 90%. Physical strength increases by 10%.]
[T-virus Carrier (Evolution Failure): Because the individual's immune ability failed to et the requirents (constitution of 10 points or more would be immune to T-virus infection), they were infected with the T-virus and turned into a zombie upon death. Instinctively, they would spread the T-virus contained in their body to nearby biological entities through biting and scratching. However, zombies infected and turned by them cannot further spread the T-virus.]
[Life Value: 25/60]
[Energy Value: 0/0]
Strength: 4
Agility: 3
Constitution: 4
Intelligence: 1
Charm: 0
Skills: 1. Bite. 2. Scratching.
"To actually be able to view a zombie's attribute list..." Zhang Yanhang initially had little hope for such a thing, but to his surprise, it indeed worked.
"That's not right, zombies have two Talents, so why do I only have one?" Indeed, what made Zhang Yanhang jealous was that zombies even had one more Talent than he did.
Of course, this wasn't to say that Zhang Yanhang wanted to awaken two Superpowers; such a thing was currently impossible since the Empire had yet to announce a successful case. However, news about Awakeners dying from trying to awaken a second Superpower and ending up with Deviation or their bodies exploding was quite common.
The most recent incident happened last week, when an Awakener with Thunder system Superpower, for reasons unknown and having heard that injecting a large amount of Energy into the body could increase the success rate of awakening a second Superpower, stood at the top of a building during a thunderstorm, holding a Lightning rod in his hand.
As for what happened afterwards, let's just say that his body was found by a cleaner. Although this Awakener's Thunder Resistance was higher than that of most, the only benefit of this was that his body remained relatively intact, at least maintaining a rough human shape. However, it was charred all over, and his facial features were completely unrecognizable.
Naturally, the key issue was that the Empire later enlisted the help of an Awakener with a retrospective type Superpower, who, after seeing the state of the Thunder system Awakener before death, stated that there were no signs of a second Superpower awakening. This led the Thunder system Superpower user to mistakenly believe that the flow of Energy wasn't strong enough, ultimately enticing the Lightning to strike him, turning himself into a charred corpse.
"Constitution above ten points grants immunity to T-virus infection? There's actually such a good thing?" Zhang Yanhang felt that the most terrifying aspect of zombies as biological entities was their ability to spread the T-virus through blood, but now that he was immune to the T-virus, the threat of zombies to him had been reduced to an unimaginable extent.
Moreover, another powerful aspect of zombies, the speed of transmission, was also restricted. Originally, zombies could spread on a 'one infects ten, ten infects a hundred' scale, but now this had stopped at the 'one infects ten' stage, as the zombies infected and converted couldn't further transmit the T-virus.
Well, this is the Ashen World after all, so there were no humans for zombies to infect, which ant that the issue of spreading speed was essentially ignorable.
"Right, now that I'm immune to the T-virus, why not test the zombies' Attack Power while I'm at it?" Zhang Yanhang stuck one of his fingers into a zombie's mouth, the sa left index finger that he had previously used to test the Chopper's Attack Power.
The zombie rapidly snapped its upper and lower jaws, its teeth grinding against Zhang Yanhang's finger, but a faint earth-yellow light ford a barrier between them. No matter how hard the zombie tried, it couldn't break through the defense.
As for the fact that the zombie could not bite through his finger, Zhang Yanhang found it quite normal. After all, the biting force of humans isn't much, rely forty kilograms, and the further forward in the jaw, the lighter the force, with only the rear molars being sowhat stronger, barely matching so small dogs. However, most dogs of a decent size have a biting strength that is at least double or even several tis that of humans.
