Chapter 108: AbilityRush_3

Wang Tao carried her back to the bed.

The next day, early morning.

Han Rui’s face was flushed as she extricated herself from Wang Tao’s embrace, sheepishly scratching at her messy hair.

“Uh… I didn’t do anything last night, did I?”

She had been dead asleep the previous night, without any memory of it.

Wang Tao shook his head.

“You slept like a log, what could you have possibly done?”

Wang Tao stayed to observe Han Rui, wanting to see if there would be any changes after she fused with a second type of Crystal Core and whether any problems would arise during the fusion process.

So far, it seemed fine; she had been sleeping soundly, and her body didn’t heat up much, unlike Wang Tao’s experience.

“…You’re the pig!”

Han Rui muttered in her heart and then asked with some anticipation,

“Shall we go test the new superpower together?”

“Of course,” Wang Tao nodded and then added, “By the way, do you feel like you can merge with other types of Crystal Cores now?”

Han Rui closed her eyes and concentrated for a moment before opening them with a look of surprise.

“I think… I can still continue to merge with different types of Crystal Cores?1

“That’s not bad.”

Wang Tao was slightly surprised; it seemed that Han Rui could fuse with at least three different types of Crystal Cores.

“Get ready and meet me at the Comprehensive Building. Well go out and test the ability.”

“Okay!”

Han Rui nodded in eager anticipation.

Wang Tao went home first to grab some equipment, then told Ding Yuqin that he might not return to the base in the next few days.

Ding Yuqin stared at Wang Tao with a touch of melancholy. Although he had

been at the base last night, he didn’t rest at home, but she prudently didn’t ask

more.

“Wang Tao, be careful out there!”

“Yeah, don’t worry, sister-in-law.”

Wang Tao kissed Ding Yuqin on the forehead and then drove to the Comprehensive Building.

Han Rui was already waiting for him.

First, Wang Tao went upstairs to ask if there had been any news about the kidnappers, but there wasn’t.

After a day and night with no news from them and no one from the two teams returning, it was clear there were casualties within the Hunter Team.

If they died at the hands of zombies, that was one thing, but if they perished at the hands of other survivors, Shuize Base would certainly take revenge!

“Let’s try to get more Zombie Cores, whether I can become an Ability User depends on you all!”

Wei Zhenguo cheered everyone on. His injuries hadn’t healed yet, so naturally, he stayed at the base.

The committee members going out were divided into three teams.

Xiang Hongbin and Lu Gang led one team of soldiers. Feng Ming’an was leading a team of police officers. Then there was Wang Tao, taking Han Rui as one team.

Wang Tao’s reason for not joining them was that he wasn’t comfortable with their combat styles.

Xiang Hongbin’s team practiced militarized operations, and Feng Ming’an’s team had their own combat methods. Wang Tao would feel out of place if he joined them.

To give a simple example, a single gesture from Hong Bin and his teammates would know what to do. But Wang Tao could only stand there confused. Not to mention their various tactics and skills.

So it was also why they would lead soldiers or police officers; it wasn’t that they were unwilling to take others, but rather, ordinary survivors simply couldn’t keep up with their pace and were more likely to slow them down.

Of course, with Wang Tao’s strength, he definitely wouldn’t fall behind, but he felt uncomfortable, so he decided against it.

However, when Wang Tao was at the base, he would often ask Wei Zhenguo for advice on military knowledge. Once he got the hang of it, he could act together with them.

“If any of you encounter Elite Zombies that you’re not sure about, or can’t handle, you can contact me. As long as I’m available, I’ll definitely come over,” Wang Tao told the others.

“Of course! You’re our base’s top combat power, we’ll definitely come to you if we’re in trouble!”

Hong Bin slapped Wang Tao’s shoulder firmly, and the others nodded in agreement.

Wang Tao exchanged high-fives with the others and then took five Homemade Bombs from Liu He.

These were improved versions of the previous model, much more stable. Liu He assured that they wouldn’t have issues like before.

Wang Tao was interested in the bombs for their timing function, which he found more useful than Hand Grenades. With just a few seconds with grenades, there was no time to escape.

But with the timed bombs, there was more room to get clear after setting them, so there was no need to worry about attracting zombies.

“Let’s go.”

Downstairs, Wang Tao called Han Rui over to the car.

But when he saw Han Rui’s outfit, he paused for a moment.

Today, Han Rui was dressed in a Black Combat Suit, with a tactical vest across her chest, a tactical helmet, and sunglasses on her head, her face covered with a black scarf, a sniper crossbow on her back, and a pistol, Dagger, and Firefighter Axe at her waist, additionally carrying a small Shield.

With her increased HP, her physical strength was greatly enhanced, and the gear she carried was no problem for her.

“You look pretty cool in that get-up!”

Wang Tao complimented her.

Han Rui was slightly proud; the gear was originally a special police outfit, which she had bought at a high price from other survivors the day before.

“Can’t deny it, we do look quite the part standing together.”

Wang Tao was also fully Armed, but he wore a skull scarf, making him look more like a villain.

Han Rui gave him a glance, and then they got into the car and left the base.

Ten minutes later.

“Huh? Lucky day today!”

Wang Tao spotted a Terrorizer carrying a hammer on the road.

[1500/1500]

And it didn’t have a lot of HP, which was perfect for Han Rui to try out her new Ability.

Han Rui handed the crossbow to Wang Tao, then got out of the car, took the Shield from her back, and held it in one hand while gripping the Firefighter Axe in the other.

After taking a deep breath, she used her Ability, “Rush,” towards the distant Terrorizer.

Whoosh—

She pushed off with her right foot and charged at the Terrorizer at high speed. At the same time, a faint white translucent shield appeared around Han Rui.

Then.

Bang!

Han Rui slammed into the Rioters zombie.

[-1200]

The Terrorizer was sent flying, and Han Rui followed up with a swing of her axe.

Spurt!

[-300]

[0/1500]

“Damn, a clean kill!”
