Chapter 495: Chapter 216: Buy on Credit_1
Seeing the sparkle in Lan Yulian’s eyes, Wang Tao directly gave her the [Healing Light] Crystal Core.
This Crystal Core was quite good, and even though it was just one, unable to remove the side effects, it was still impressive—it was just a loss of 5000 HP. Before 29999 HP, that was enough. If need be, just kill a few more zombies to replenish the HP.
However, for Wang Tao himself, it wasn’t of much use.
Since Wang Tao’s own [Iron Wall] Ability could restore HP, and he preferred Abilities that could aid in attack, this [Healing Light] obviously wasn’t suitable for him.
Wang Tao had originally planned to keep this Ability for Ding Yuqin, but now Ding Yuqin wasn’t around, and he was certain that he would have many more Crystal Cores later, so there was no need to keep holding onto it. Giving it to Lan Yulian now would let it serve its proper function.
Watching Lan Yulian holding the Crystal Core, with a look of uncontrollable joy, Wang Tao suddenly said:
“You owe me a lot now.”
“…”
Lan Yulian’s face froze.
If it were before, she might have thought Wang Tao meant that she owed him a lot of Crystal Cores. But now, she had a feeling that Wang Tao’s words carried a deeper meaning.
“Don’t worry, I will be able to pay you back soon!”
Lan Yulian quickly spoke up.
Lu Yingfeng, standing beside her, tugged at Lan Yulian’s clothes and asked in a low voice:
“We owe so much! How are we going to pay it all back…”
Lan Yulian gave her a glance, whispering back.
“I sold you to him.”
“…”
Lu Yingfeng obviously didn’t believe her but didn’t ask any further. With a serious face, she said:
“Then I’m going to start the Fusion of the Crystal Core!”
Lan Yulian nodded.
“Go ahead, I’ll guard you.”
They had just received a lot of Crystal Cores from Wang Tao, and for Lu Yingfeng, that should be enough.
Lu Yingfeng entered a room; she had quite a few Crystal Cores to fuse, so it would take some time.
Lan Yulian then arranged for others to patrol this floor, to prevent zombies from coming up at night, given that she would be guarding Lu Yingfeng.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xu Xiaojun volunteered to stand guard himself. With his strength, even if some formidable zombies appeared, he would be able to handle them.
Inside the room.
Lu Yingfeng lay on the bed, with Lan Yulian sitting beside her.
Wang Tao sat on a chair not far away, with Jiang Shixue snuggled next to him. Nie Siyan continued to massage Wang Tao’s shoulders.
Before Lu Yingfeng started the Fusion of the Extraction Crystal Core, Wang Tao roughly knew about the Abilities she possessed.
Apart from two trash Abilities, Lu Yingfeng’s other two Abilities were [Athlete] and [Precision Shooting].
Lu Yingfeng possessed Precision Shooting, and Wang Tao found it a bit surprising, but not too surprising. After all, Precision Shooting isn’t just for shooting; in close combat, it can be very useful in controlling one’s strength and direction.
And Lu Yingfeng herself was from a martial arts family, knowledgeable in many sword techniques. Paired with Athlete and Precision Shooting, her close combat would be very strong, and very cool…
After Lu Yingfeng swallowed the Extraction Crystal Core, it didn’t take long before she suddenly opened her mouth and spat out a Crystal Core. It was one of those trash Abilities she had fused before. Then she swallowed another Extraction Crystal Core, and shortly after, the other Ability was expelled as well.
Lu Yingfeng looked happy; those Abilities were of limited help to her and were from earlier fusions. Now she could finally replace them!
She chose a [Sprint] Crystal Core from Wang Tao’s collection. To others, this Ability might only seem to move them a small distance, seemingly not very useful. But for her, coupled with her sword techniques, it would definitely make her more formidable!
As for the other Ability, she hadn’t decided yet what to fuse; she would have to leave it empty for now and wait until she reached Level 3.
Soon, Lu Yingfeng successfully fused the Sprint Crystal Core, then fused the other nine Sprints as well. All these Crystal Cores were on credit from Lan Yulian.
Lu Yingfeng’s Athlete was at +10, and now the Sprint was also +10. This meant she could fuse two Ascension Crystal Cores!
However, Wang Tao suddenly said:
“By the way, I just remembered, there’s a Crystal Core that should be very suitable for you.”
“What is it?”
Everyone looked curiously at Wang Tao.
“This one.”
Wang Tao took out a red [High-Frequency Vibration] Crystal Core and explained its function.
After hearing this, Lu Yingfeng immediately became excited.
This Ability was practically tailor-made for sword users like them!
She immediately looked at Wang Tao with hopeful eyes, then at Lan Yulian.
“We’ll take it!”
Lan Yulian spoke up at once. What’s a little more debt? She could afford it!
But Wang Tao just smiled and shook his head.
“You can have it on credit, but I have a small condition…”
“What condition? If it’s within my power, I will not shy away!”
Lu Yingfeng asked eagerly.
“I’m quite interested in your sword techniques…”
Lu Yingfeng was surprised but quickly said:
“Once we’re in a safe place, I can teach you! But let’s make it clear, if you can’t learn, you can’t blame me. Not that I look down on you, but I’ve been practicing for many years since I was a child…”
“Deal. I’m not demanding, just want to give it a try. If it doesn’t work out, so be it.”
Wang Tao handed the Crystal Core to Lu Yingfeng.
He thought Lu Yingfeng looked very cool when fighting, and each move was controlled just right; he wanted to learn. But if he really couldn’t pick it up, then it was not meant to be—it would simply prove it wasn’t his forté.
“Thank you!”
Lu Yingfeng excitedly fused the [High-Frequency Vibration], and after a moment, she took out her sword to test it. She easily cut through a steel pipe.
