Chapter 289: Chapter 148: Ascension (Seeking Monthly Pass at Month’s End)_2

“Wang Tao, aren’t you tired?”

Han Rui looked at Wang Tao with some surprise.

Previously, every time he killed some zombies, that is, every time he gained a whole thousand HP, he would feel drowsy, as if his body was “auto upgrading.” After sleeping, his strength would increase.

But now, after Wang Tao had killed an Elite Zombie, he was supposed to move up to Level 2, so why did he still appear to be so spirited?

Seeing the confusion in Han Rui’s eyes, Wang Tao laughed.

“I’ve discovered something interesting—this timing of ascending to Level 2 can be chosen at will! It’s no longer like before where I would fall asleep immediately!”

“Ah? That’s great then!”

Han Rui was immediately overjoyed upon hearing this.

In the past when she went out to kill zombies, she would uncontrollably feel the need to sleep at critical moments, which was extremely uncomfortable. After all, she was outside, where dangers lurked everywhere! Falling asleep meant a high chance of never waking up!

But there was no way to control this… Therefore, it was best to form a team, at least with more than two people, in order to go out hunting zombies. This way, if one person needed to sleep, another could quickly bring them back to the base.

Wang Tao had always gone out with Han Rui, and the two of them took care of each other.

But this still had significant limitations and was prone to accidents.

If they could control the timing themselves, waiting to sleep until they were back at the base or in a safer place would be much better!

“What does it feel like then?”

Han Rui asked further.

She too had reached the upper limit of Level 1 and yearned for Level 2.

“How should I put it, it’s kind of a sensation that’s like knowing you can combine several Crystal Cores. I feel that within the next three days, I can choose any time to sleep, and then I’ll become a Second-order Superpower Owner! If I don’t make a choice, then in three days from now, I’ll automatically fall asleep, waking up as a Second-order Superpower Owner… As for how long I’ll need to sleep, I feel like it should be around 24 hours…”

Wang Tao described what he had felt.

“Then that’s really not bad at all!”

Han Rui also showed a smile on her face.

Although there are restrictions, having to choose a time within three days and needing to sleep for 24 hours, three days is not a short time. If one can’t find a safe place within three days, that’s just bad luck…

“Congratulations!”

Han Rui was very happy for Wang Tao.

“Haha, but there’s a bit of a situation with this ascension; I need to go back and study it a bit…”

Soon, the two of them returned to the base, just as the sun had completely set.

Although the crisis had resulted in the death of many people in the base, three hundred people survived, and they were all strong. Therefore, in terms of building the base, work progressed rather swiftly.

In just one day’s time, the corpses of the zombies inside the base had been thrown out, and some of the damaged walls and barbed wire had also been repaired.

Except for the main gate, the defenses everywhere else in the base had returned to the pre-disaster levels.

The main gate, which had been the focus of the Gorilla zombie’s attack, was smashed to pieces. After discussing, Wei Zhenguo and the others decided to make two pure metal gates!

The previous gate was called a big iron gate, but it was actually just iron sheeting on the outside with wood inside. Such a gate could stop Ordinary Zombies with no problem, but it was insufficient to stop monsters like the Gorilla zombie.

If the gate was made entirely of metal, it’s likely even the Gorilla zombie couldn’ t break through.

Of course, it wasn’t just about the gate; the surrounding walls also needed to be reinforced, preferably all metal. After all, there was no shortage of abandoned vehicles outside, so metal materials were plentiful.

However, this wasn’t something that could be done overnight; for now, they could only focus on getting the big iron gate set up.

As for the current gate, it was a patchwork of the previously shattered old one, just to make do. It was still capable of stopping some Ordinary Zombies.

“Wang Tao, you’re back. How was the harvest?”

Seeing Wang Tao return, Wei Zhenguo and the others hurried over.

“It’s basically stable. I can ascend to a Second-order Superpower Owner in at most three days or as soon as tomorrow!”

Wang Tao said with a smile.

“That’s great!”

The few people were very excited to hear this.

The Level 2 Zombies inside Shuize County should all be dead by now, at least they shouldn’t reappear in the short term, and Wang Tao was about to become a Second-order Superpower Owner. This meant that while they might not dominate Shuize County, at least they wouldn’t have to live in fear as before!

Even if more Level 2 Zombies appeared later, Wang Tao’s strength would surely grow even stronger, and killing Level 2 Zombies should be no problem. Then they could also obtain an Ascension Crystal Core and undergo Level 2 Ascension!

As the saying goes, without destruction, there can be no construction; the ancients did not deceive me, the good days for the base might be coming!

Wang Tao discussed the situation of Level 2 Ascension with them, and like Han Rui, they were all very happy. Having the freedom to choose the timing of ascension would be amazing!

“Then when do you plan to ascend?”

Zhen Guo asked.

Wang Tao thought for a moment and replied:

“Tonight. I’ll go home to prepare and can ascend, which might take around 24 hours. By this time tomorrow, I’ll be a Second-order Superpower Owner!”

“Good!”

Everyone nodded.

“Oh, and here are some Crystal Cores for you guys.”

Wang Tao took out some Level 1 Synthetic Crystal Cores he had on hand, as well as an Ascension Crystal Core that the zombie Wu Fei had dropped.

“An Ascension Crystal Core?”

Everyone was somewhat surprised to see the green Crystal Core.

“Yeah, I don’t need this Ascension Crystal Core anymore, so you guys see who could use it. This Core only has a 55% success rate, so I suggest picking someone who’s lucky, haha!”
