CHAPTER 857: CHAPTER 206: YOU REALLY MISSED THE OPPORTUNITY

Bang!

Bang!

"Your ability has reached the fourth stage, allowing you to wear the fourth-stage war armor. The function of the war armor is to make you, as an Awakener of strength, even stronger and more formidable."

Lin Fan skillfully patted the crystals, mercilessly embedding the invaluable crystals into the war armor. Every time a Golden Crystal shattered, their hearts pounded.

Pang Yuan said, "Isn’t it too wasteful to use Golden Crystals on the war armor?"

He felt it was a bit wasteful.

Golden Crystals are so precious and hard to obtain. Dealing with a zombie that has a Golden Crystal is really terrifying, definitely not something you can just imagine handling.

At least until now, he hasn’t hunted a zombie with a Golden Crystal.

"No, it’s not wasteful. Your safety is worth more than the crystals. Professor Xia’s initial purpose in developing the war armor was for ordinary survivors to wear it and hunt zombies. However, with the appearance of Evolutionary Zombies, ordinary humans, even with war armor, can’t be a match for Evolutionary Zombies."

"Only Awakeners can hunt Evolutionary Zombies."

Lin Fan said softly.

He hoped Pang Yuan and the others could understand that crystals are just external objects; only life is one’s own, and nothing can compare to life.

Pang Yuan and the others were deeply shaken.

Our safety is worth more than the crystals?

They felt Lin Fan’s words were truly gentle.

Crystals?

In their knowledge, crystals are extremely valuable. Not to mention Golden Crystals, even Black Crystals can often drive people mad, even becoming prey in others’ eyes.

Now seeing Lin Fan continuously smashing Golden Crystals into the war armor.

The impact was truly overwhelming.

Looking dumbfounded and speechless, if not seen with their own eyes, they would suspect everything happening right in front of them was a dream.

With the enhancements.

The luster of the black war armor was dazzling, anyone could tell it was definitely not an ordinary object.

Soon, the enhancement of the war armor was complete.

"Pang Yuan, try out the war armor," Lin Fan said.

"Me?"

Pang Yuan pointed at his own face, clearly knowing this war armor was prepared by Lin Fan for him, but when truly facing this set of war armor, his mood was in an indescribable state of flux.

"Of course, try it on."

Lin Fan knew his advancement to the fourth stage relied on the accumulation of other crystals.

The power he could unleash.

Was hard to compare with Old Zhong.

Old Zhong’s abilities at each stage were enhanced by using the corresponding crystals, ensuring maximum power.

Now with Pang Yuan donning the war armor, he could offset his own weaknesses.

"Then I’ll try it."

Pang Yuan eagerly donned the war armor. With its coverage, a jet-black Berserker was fully formed, wielding a giant axe. A true Berserker would charge into a zombie horde, rampaging, relying on the war armor’s hardness alone to crush a wave of zombies.

"How does it feel?"

Lin Fan asked.

Pang Yuan said, "It gives an indescribable sense of security, like every part is protected, allowing me to let loose and go all out."

"Indeed, with the war armor enhanced to the fourth stage, it’s impervious to blades and bullets, hard to breach. Even facing the impact of zombies with Golden Crystals, it can ensure personal safety," Lin Fan said.

Old Zhong, wearing the war armor, could take on mature-stage hybrid zombies directly.

The safety performance of this war armor is absolutely uncompromising.

"Let me enhance your giant axe."

Lin Fan took Pang Yuan’s giant axe and similarly enhanced it with crystals, though he felt helpless knowing that the giant axe hadn’t undergone such enhancements before.

"Weapons are crucial, regular weapons are fine against ordinary zombies, but they fall short against Evolutionary Zombies."

"The higher the crystal level of the zombies, the tougher their flesh and bones."

He explained calmly.

Though he rarely traveled outside, his understanding of zombies was beyond the ordinary person’s reach.

Pang Yuan listened intently while trying to move his joints, realizing they were exceptionally flexible.

There was no hindrance usually associated with wearing war armor.

The crystallization of technology is just stylish.

"Alright, the giant axe is enhanced," Lin Fan handed the giant axe back to Pang Yuan.

Pang Yuan casually fiddled with the axe’s posture.

"So cool."

Chen Ningning’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

Sun Ya said, "Feels like upgrading from a popgun to a cannon, Brother Pang wearing war armor instantly raised the class."

This was his most genuine feeling.

Next were the war armors for Chen Ningning, Sun Ya, and Professor Ji. Fortunately, they had hunted enough zombies in the past, so they had plenty of crystal reserves, despite many survivors coming to the Sunshine Shelter.

However, most survivors stayed in the prison.

Undergoing ideological reconstruction.

When they could specifically come out?

It’s hard to say.

Some might come out soon, but some might never come out in their lifetime.

Chen Ningning and Sun Ya’s ability stages hadn’t reached the fourth stage.

They could only enhance the war armor to suit their situations.

Otherwise, they couldn’t wear it if it exceeded their stage.

At the same time, some crystals were left for them to advance to the fourth stage, so they could enhance their own war armor when the time comes.

Finally, there was Professor Ji’s situation.

Professor Ji wasn’t an Awakener; he didn’t know how many stages of war armor Professor Ji could wear, so they could only try step by step. Until the fourth stage, Professor Ji could still wear it.
