Global Awakening: Apocalypse Ender's Chronicle

Chapter 143: Retrieve the Loot



Shane's subjects, caught in the midst of escape, found themselves able to breathe freely once more, the danger of slumber was quickly averted.

However, Lucas actually failed to hold his breath a while ago and had to be carried away by one of the Super Soldiers. As for Gene, he was already a little groggy after inhaling some of the sleeping gas.

The estate was silent, the tension thick as Shane weighed the fate of the invaders. His hand rested on the grip of his newly acquired double revolver, the metal cool and reassuring against his skin. The Super Soldier Vials glinted in the moonlight, their contents too valuable to waste on those who had sought to harm his home.

With a steely gaze, he made his decision. The invaders could not be left alive to threaten his people again. He raised the revolver, its twin barrels promising swift retribution.

[ Gunslinger's Dual Revolvers ( Exceptional ): A pair of sleek revolvers with quick-draw holsters, perfect for rapid-fire shooting and close to mid-range combat. These dual pistols offer versatility and firepower, allowing the wielder to engage multiple targets with speed and style.

Effects: -50% Recoil, +35% Pierce Rate

Special Effects:

Dual Wield Mastery: A passive ability that increases accuracy and stability when dual-wielding. ]

What was incredible about this weapon was the fact that it would automatically give him the proficiency to use two guns at the same time.

Of course, it would be awesome if the effects were giving elemental boosts, explosive burst, or other mystical powers.

Nonetheless, Shane felt that this passive ability was a lot better than any mystical effects, especially when dealing with other humans.

But before he could pull the trigger, Leo's voice cut through the night, urgent and clear.

"That woman has Telekinesis ability!"

The Blacksmith shouted… He was quite lucky that he was on top of the watchtower, which allowed him to be almost unaffected by the sleeping gas.

As soon as he saw Shane about to kill the invaders, he wanted to remind him that they could be useful when they're alive than not.

Nonetheless, the decision would still be up to their leader, so he didn't say anything more than that…

As Shane heard the Blacksmith's voice, a split-second decision was made.

Shane's mind raced.

A talent like Telekinesis was rare and potentially valuable.

In an instant, his plan changed. He would spare her—for now.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The revolver was fired, a chorus of thunderclaps shattering the silence in the silent forest!

Shane's aim was perfect; his mastery of firearms was already level 10, so no one could doubt his shooting abilities.

Each shot found its mark as the invaders started falling one by one, their threats were quickly extinguished in a hail of lead!

Everyone except for the woman with Telekinesis died! The others tried using their talents to protect themselves, but with an additional 35% Pierce Rate and special bullets that he obtained in the auction, they had to use Master-Grade Shields in order to protect themselves!

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The woman now lay on the ground, clutching her wounded leg, her ability to flee or fight stripped away!

She didn't cry in pain as she gritted her teeth to bear the pain.

At this time, the Super Soldiers also caught up to them and they immediately surrounded Layla, the injured woman…

As for Max, the vanguard of these invaders, he was still actually alive as he was only subdued by a couple of Super Soldiers.

Shane stood calmly at the gate of the estate, the revolver still smoking in his hand…

After confirming that none of his subjects were injured, he ordered Cassius and the others to carry the bodies of the survivors and for Anna to heal the woman's injury.

Of course, there would be Super Soldiers guarding Anna, just in case. He planned to talk to her later since he was a bit excited to loot these people and the pile of zombies he had seen in front of the manor a few moments ago.

Layla, the woman with Telekinesis, could only look up at Shane, her eyes wide with a mixture of fear and respect as she got carried away by the Super Soldier...

She knew she had been spared for a reason… However, once she became useless, there was no doubt that she would be killed like the others.

Needless to say, she didn't want to die yet!

For now, she could only hope that the reason that she was spared was because the man actually took a liking to her beauty.

'He must have been attracted… I just need to stay attractive…' Layla thought as she was able to

If that was the case, she believed that she might even possess a decent position in this stronghold.

***

It didn't take long before all the bodies were taken inside the estate.

Of course, Shane didn't immediately extract them as he decided to take out the MREs he had purchased in the Auction Hall.

"Mr. Wadsworth, please prepare this for everyone… Right, Lucas should know how to prepare this if you have questions, just ask him.

It was at the same time that Lucas woke up, and as soon as he saw the boxes of MREs, he couldn't help but feel nostalgic.

Although he didn't really like the MREs, they were still a lot better in their situation. Furthermore, Alexa and Anna had already gathered some seasonings, so these MREs could still be improved if prepared by their chef.

"Leave it to me!" Lucas replied with a hint of excitement in his voice.

After this was settled, Shane finally set his eyes on the Jumper Zombies and started his loot!

[ Do you want to retrieve the loot? ]

"Yes."

[ You have earned 10 Experience Points. ]

[ Loots obtained: Item Upgrade Crystal x1, Zombie Core x1, 500mL Water, Bread x1, Strength Enhancement Bottle x1 ]

"Strength Enhancement Bottle? Not bad!" Shane's eyes lit up after seeing this. There were 30 of these Jumper Zombies, and he was hoping that all of them would give one!

With this in mind, he continued with his loot!

[ You have earned 10 Experience Points. ]

[ Loots obtained: Item Upgrade Crystal x1, Zombie Core x1, 500mL Water, Bread x1, Strength Enhancement Bottle x1 ]

Shane left the Violent Leaper Zombies for now as he looted the thirty Jumper Zombies!

Just like that, he obtained a total of 300 Experience Points, 30 Strength Enhancement Bottles, and others…

"I still didn't level up…" Shane sighed as he really felt disappointed about this.

It had been over a week since he reached Level 19, but he was still stuck and couldn't level up. At this time, he really couldn't help but think how would the other Survivors reach level 20 since they only gets 1 or 3 Experience Points in each zombie.

Anyway, he finally decided to loot the three large zombies. Mr. Wadsworth mentioned that they were Violent Leaper Zombies. They were defeated by Lucas and him after working together.

[ Do you want to retrieve the loot? ]

"Yes."

[ You have earned 17 Experience Points. ]

[ Loots obtained: Item Upgrade Crystal x1, Zombie Core x2, 500mL Water, Unknown Meat ( Safe ) x1, 100mL Violent Leaper Blood, Leaper's Bandana x1 ]

"Oh? I got an item…" Shane's eyes lit up since looting items from Zombies was quite difficult, even with his 100% Drop Rate.

There were simply too few of these Zombies who had items with them.

Seeing such a result, he quickly looted the others with excitement that could be clearly seen on his face.

[ You have earned 17 Experience Points. ]

[ Loots obtained: Item Upgrade Crystal x1, Zombie Core x2, 500mL Water, Unknown Meat ( Safe ) x1, 100mL Violent Leaper Blood, Pair of Spiked Shoulder Pads x1 ]

[ You have earned 17 Experience Points. ]

[ Loots obtained: Item Upgrade Crystal x1, Zombie Core x2, 500mL Water, Unknown Meat ( Safe ) x1, 100mL Violent Leaper Blood, Serrated Machete x1 ]

Shane actually obtained three items from the special Zombies he had just looted!

Furthermore, he was able to obtain meat!

From their previous experience, this meat could certainly taste good with Alexa's cooking abilities, so he was no longer worried about the origin of this meat.

To be exact, he didn't really want to know its origin at this point!

After this, Shane finally turned his attention to the eight corpses of the Survivors.

[ Do you want to retrieve the loot? ]

"Yes."

[ You have earned 50 Experience Points. ]

[ You have earned 1 Reputation Point. ]

[ Loots obtained: Item Upgrade Crystal x1, 100mL Human Blood ( O+ ), Danger Sense Skill, Aura Master Talent ]

[ You have reached the limit of Survivor Talents. Aura Master ( Exceptional ) was not added. ]

[ Do you want to remove one of your current Survivor Talents to accommodate the Aura Master Talent? ]

[ Hint: You can only have 3 Survivor Talents, but you can check the Reputation Store occasionally, and perhaps you'll find a Talent Expansion Pack! ]

"Aura Master… No wonder I have to shoot this guy two more times than the others."

Shane muttered as he thought that the man's durability was brought to him by his clothes.

It was actually thanks to his impressive talent!
