"Ding! The host has completed the daily task, advancing on the path: Successfully evolved into an elite zombie!"
"Rewards are being distributed..."
"Rewards locked..."
"Congratulations to the host for acquiring the rare talent: Domination!"
"Domination (upgradable): As the king of zombies, you can control two zombies of the same rank!"
"You will obtain the derivative skill: Mind Transfer!"
"Mind Transfer: You can choose to transfer your consciousness to the zombies you control, thereby manipulating them!"
"Note 1: Please protect your own body!"
"Note 2: The controlled zombies can still use some of the system's functions and their own talents and skills!"
"Note 3: 25% of the evolution points obtained by the controlled zombies will belong to you!"
Shaun was slightly stunned, but then immediately filled with joy.
He had thought that he would only be able to command zombies, but he didn't expect that he could also perform mind transfers!
Even more importantly, he could still use some of the system's functions and his own talents. This meant that he gained two powerful avatars.
As long as he kept his main body safe and sent out his avatars to fight, there was nothing to worry about!
And it even had the words "upgradable" attached to it!
This was the real ultimate life-saving technique!
Perfectly to his liking!
Shaun roared in excitement. As a king of zombies, he should avoid any risky situations!
Even lying down he could gain evolution points. This was the epitome of a true king!
"Ding! The host has been promoted to an elite zombie and randomly comprehended the skill: Hardened Skin!"
"Hardened Skin: Your skin can instantly become as hard as iron, weakening or even immunizing various attacks!"
"Note: Your speed will be affected when the skill is activated!"
"Ding! The host has completed a random task, Efficiency Infection!"
"Rewards are being distributed..."
"Rewards locked!"
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Insightful Eye!"
"Ding! Insightful Eye: Allows you to perceive the information panel of every living creature. The greater the strength gap, the more detailed the information!"
"The perfection of the random task has reached 80%, and the rewards have increased! The range of use of the Insightful Eye has been greatly increased!"
"The perfection of the random task has reached 100%, and the rewards have increased! The Insightful Eye ignores any obstacles between the two parties!"
Once again, he gained two skills, both of which were extremely practical. His careful planning had truly paid off!
Shaun's status panel changed as follows:
Host: Shaun;
Rank: First-tier elite zombie;
Evolution Points: 390/2000;
Talents: Nervous Collapse, Virus Infection, Bloody Evolution, Domination, Ordinary People Aura, Protagonist Aura.
Skills: Insightful Eye (enhanced), Hardened Skin.
Evaluation: This is a rare elite zombie, its evolution speed has far surpassed other zombies, and it can even contend with powerful mutant beasts!
The evolution points needed for elite zombie evolution had greatly increased, but his infection efficiency had also greatly increased. He could even hunt powerful mutant beasts.
In the beginning, a large white dog had provided him with a full 200 evolution points.
The future was indeed promising!
Shaun gazed at the Blood Moon, feeling a lonely invincibility.
Not only did he gain a rare talent, but also two skills, along with his strengthened base strength.
Was this what it felt like to be strong?
He punched the door of the activity center.
Bang!
Looking at the unmoving door, he put on his sunglasses, calmly unlocked the door, and walked out.
No wonder these people had been able to stay safe inside for so long!
Shaun first went to find his old War God outfit.
A red down jacket, pink curtains, black plastic bags, white gloves for bricklaying, a black frying pan...
He meticulously counted every item, and then directly stored them all in the system's backpack, taking up only one grid.
As he passed by the male dormitory, he considered infecting the two students who had thought of him as a pervert.
As soon as he stepped onto the second floor of the dormitory, Shaun trembled, an unprecedented sense of excitement washing over him.
His pupils turned even more crimson, filled with greed and fanaticism.
Mutant beast?!
Due to his increased strength, the system released its previous suppression, allowing him to sense the higher-level virus within the mutant beast.
Shaun didn't act recklessly. He looked up directly.
Insightful Eye!
In an instant, Shaun's vision turned pitch black.
But as he moved his gaze, a vivid red silhouette suddenly appeared, resembling a rat.
The strengthened Insightful Eye's range of use had greatly increased, and it ignored obstacles. It was truly a godlike ability, enabling him to easily seize the initiative.
Name: Mutant Rat;
Rank: First-tier (equivalent to first-tier elite zombie);
Talent: Evil Evolution;
Skills: Bite, Agility;
Shaun stood still. No wonder the mutant beasts he had encountered before were so abnormal. They started off with the strength of elite zombies.
They even had two skills, likely both related to combat.
But what held Shaun's attention was the mutant rat's talent.
Just a single Evil Evolution? And it was different from the bloody evolution of zombies, and it didn't have the Virus Infection talent either.
Were the viruses inside them not the same type?
Or could it be that the different hosts caused the viruses to evolve in different directions?
At that moment, the mutant rat seemed to become agitated as well, constantly moving, trying to find the source of the exciting scent.
Discovered?
The elite zombie virus within Shaun was equally attractive to it.
Seeing the danger, Shaun quickly left the male dormitory, preparing to come up with another plan.
He hadn't used the Domination talent yet. He would control two zombies first.
Facing an opponent of the same rank, three against one would give him the upper hand.
Shaun arrived at the playground, repeatedly using the Insightful Eye, preparing to control two slightly stronger zombies.
All he saw were identical panels, which disappointed him.
Name: Ordinary Zombie;
Rank: Third-tier;
Talent: Nervous Collapse, Bloody Evolution, Virus Infection;
Skills: None;
...
With a glance, all he saw were third-tier ordinary zombies, which were really a bunch of weaklings.
Even if it was three against one, they were probably just cannon fodder. It was currently too difficult to find high-tier zombies.
His eyes shifted, and he suddenly saw two chubby zombies. He had an idea – they might be able to counter the rat's Agility skill.
Although he couldn't rely on strength, their weight could still be useful.
"Ding! Successfully controlled a third-tier zombie! Due to the zombie's low rank, only simple commands can be executed!"
The panels of the two controlled zombies didn't change, but he gained 10/300 and 0/300 evolution points respectively.
Ordinary zombies could also evolve by devouring mutant beasts and infecting humans.
Both zombies had likely evolved through the Blood Moon, and one of them had successfully infected a person.
With two imposing chubby zombies under his control, Shaun set out to find a suitable weapon.
However, finding one on the spot was difficult, so he casually picked up two kitchen knives and stored them in the system's backpack.
As he passed by the dormitory's supermarket, he unexpectedly saw some sticky rat traps.
In peacetime, there were likely many rats in the male dormitory, which explained how the mutant rat had emerged!
Shaun tied the hands of the two chubby zombies with the sticky rat traps. While the effect was limited, it was better than nothing.
The three zombies entered the male dormitory, and the first floor was still as usual.
According to the guidance of the Insightful Eye, the mutant rat should be on the fifth floor.
Shaun stayed on the first floor and randomly entered a dorm room, letting the two chubby zombies continue upstairs.
If he continued upstairs, the mutant rat might become agitated. He waited until the chubby zombies engaged it before joining the fight.
For his agile body, the fourth floor was just a blink away.
"Use Mind Transfer!"
