Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot

“`

However, exactly how that would work, he’d have to wait until the awakening to find out… Wang Tao looked towards the other loot.

The explosion-proof zombie itself had dropped three items, and there were also four loot packs.

The three items were the crystal core from its head, the explosion-proof armor on its body, and a baton at its waist.

[Level 4 Crystal Core – Defense]

[Quality: Excellent (60%)]

[Purity: 35% (Side effect: body oozing pus)]

No wonder the explosion-proof zombie’s defense was so high—it turned out it had a passive crystal core for defense.

[Received: Contaminated Explosion-proof Shirt x1]

The explosion-proof armor that the zombie wore seemed somewhat surprising to Wang Tao since it bore a name, though equipment dropped directly from zombies had no attributes and hence Wang Tao didn’t know if this explosion-proof shirt was strong or not, but its defensive power should be decent; he could experiment with it later.

The design of this explosion-proof shirt was a bit much to handle—it wasn’t just clothing; there were bits of hardened flesh and blood on it. If he were to wear it, others might mistake him for a zombie…

[Received: Contaminated Baton x1]

The explosion-proof zombie did not utilize the baton during combat; for its size, holding a baton was probably akin to holding a toothpick.

This baton was different from a normal one, too; it had fused with its flesh and mutated. It was called a baton, but its shape was that of a stick made of flesh and blood, which looked quite discomforting.

Then there were the four loot packs.

The first pack contained five crystal cores: a red [Level 4 Crystal Core – Omnipotent], an orange [Level 4 Crystal Core – Ascension], a red [Level 4 Crystal Core – Awakening], a blue [Level 4 Crystal Core – Strength], and a purple [Level 4 Crystal Core – Return to Light].

As there was an ascension crystal core of epic quality, this was quite good for Wang Tao. With this one, he now had three ascension crystal cores!

And another awakening crystal core, also red!

Among these crystal cores, it was only [Return to Light] that Wang Tao had never come across before.

[Level 4 Crystal Core – Return to Light]

[Quality: Excellent (60%)]

[Purity: 35% (Side effect: irritability)]

[Return to Light: Passive Ability, regenerates HP when HP is lost. The healing is fixed at 10 HP for level 1 up to 100 HP for level 10, with a cap at level 10.]

That was the ability the explosion-proof zombie had to recover HP when hit!

Wang Tao suddenly became a bit excited—this ability was, to some extent, miraculous! However, as he continued reading the description, he found himself at a loss for words, realizing he had celebrated too soon.

This blood regenerating ability first required taking hits, and the recovery was fixed. At most, it could only restore up to 100 HP.

For those with high defense, it would certainly be fitting—they take hundreds of damage and can heal a hundred. But for most people, it might not be so appropriate. If one’s defense was low and they were hit for three thousand, only recovering a hundred would be kind of pointless…

Still, overall, this ability was quite good—because it has one huge advantage: it’s a passive ability that doesn’t require stamina.

If he could gather three of them later on, Wang Tao might consider fusing them.

The second loot pack from the explosion-proof zombie contained potions.

[Received: Power Potion (Small) x20]

[Received: Power Potion (Medium) x20]

[Received: Berserk Potion x20]

[Received: Hemostatic Drug x20]

Though there was no potion to permanently increase attributes, the variety of four potions was still quite good.

The third loot pack contained clothes.

[Received: Explosion-Proof Suit x1]

[Explosion-Proof Suit: Durability +10, Tear Resistance +10, Defensive Power +5, Movement Speed -5%]

The explosion-proof zombie had exploded out of this set of clothes, which included a helmet, jacket, pants, shoes, gloves, and more—a very complete set.

But this was a standard set, not one of those mutated garments.

In addition to the standard durability and tear resistance, it provided a boost of 5 points to defensive power but also reduced movement speed by 5%.

For Wang Tao, movement speed was clearly more valuable than this slight defensive boost, so it was quite useless to him.

As for others, they might be able to wear it, but they all had iron tree armor given by Wang Tao which couldn’t be worn over this set of clothes. So, it was of no use to anyone…

The last loot pack contained equipment blueprints, and there were two of them!

[Received: Mutant Explosion-proof Baton Blueprint x1]

[Received: Mutant Explosion-proof Electric Shield Blueprint x1]

These were respectively a baton and a shield blueprint.

[Mutant Explosion-proof Baton Blueprint: Can be used to craft a Mutant Explosion-proof Baton. Required materials: Baton x1, Level 4 Crystal Core x1, Iron Block x10, Steel Wire x10, Screws x10, Nails x10, Rubber x10, Cable x10, Electronic Components x10, Batteries x10]

[Mutant Explosion-proof Baton: Has electrocution properties]

[Mutant Explosion-proof Electric Shield Blueprint: Can be used to craft a Mutant Explosion-proof Electric Shield. Required materials: Level Four Zombie Bones 10kg, Level 4 Crystal Core x1, Iron Block x10, Steel Wire x10, Screws x10, Nails x10, Rubber x10, Cable x10, Electronic Components x10, Batteries x10]

[Mutant Explosion-proof Electric Shield: Has electrocution properties]

The descriptions of these two blueprints made Wang Tao’s eyes shine.

The baton and shield were actually electrified!

Without a second thought, Wang Tao began crafting.

After killing the explosion-proof zombie, when he was collecting the loot, he had specifically brought the zombie’s body with him.

Based on Wang Tao’s previous experience, some equipment blueprints required zombie bones.

After all, this was a level four zombie, and if he indeed needed the bones and didn’t have any, they would be hard to come by.
