Plundering in the Apocalypse

Sitting on the bed, Shin started combining the abilities he plundered with the use of Upgrader (SS).

\'Let\'s try this.\' Shin\'s choices were mostly random as he had no way of learning all the abilities and practicing them.

***

[Congratulations! You have successfully combined Crow eyes (D), Elephant fist (D), Stone body (C), Tiger Claws (D), Monkey Style arts (D), Turtle Defense (D).... +52 abilities into a new ability.]

[You have learned a new ability \'Enhanced Senses (A)\']

[Enhanced Senses - a sixth sense danger perception ability.]

***

\'That\'ll be a lot more useful. Now that I have a danger perception ability, I can feel somewhat at ease.\' Shin was certain once he practices this ability he can apply it in various styles in battles.

\'Now, the next one. This ability I\'ve thought of upgrading it for a while.\' The invisibility effect it gives is very useful for Shin.

***

[Congratulations! You have used 45 abilities to upgrade your ability successfully.]

[Shadow Veil (C) --> (B)]

***

\'I\'ll test the improved effect later.\' Thinking of this Shin also combined other abilities and got a new ability.

***

[Congratulations! You have successfully combined Poison Master (B) and 48 abilities into a new ability.]

[You have learned a new ability \'Toxic Ninja (A)\']

[A Ninja who can create poison in thin air and stealthily deals with his enemies. Expert in poison arts.]

***

\'The name\'s a little weird. But it\'s very useful.\' Shin had already started thinking of different fighting styles with his new abilities.

"Status board."

Seeing his status, Shin had lots of contemplative thoughts in his mind. Although having lots of abilities made him happy. It also reminded him of how much more he needs to work hard.

Even if he had dozens of abilities, if he can\'t apply them in a battle, that will be the end of him. Also, his level is only 60.

Among the newly awakened humans, he may be considered strong. But that was it. Because the enemies he will face in the future will be extremely terrifying.

Shin\'s eyes fell on Alice, who was busy chatting with Reina on the phone. Remembering the adult Alice in the sanctuary, Shin was certain that they were going to face a lot of challenges in the future.

Deciding his future set of actions, Shin made various plans and changes in his mind.

After Alice\'s call ended.

"Alice!" He called out to her.

Hearing herself being called, Alice went near him and asked in a worried tone. "What is it, Shin? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Shaking his head sideways, he said, "Alice, let\'s end our trip now. We need to head back to Aston City." Shin expected Alice to feel a little distressed that the trip will be cut short.

But to his surprise, she smiled and agreed to his decision without any more thought. "Yeah, it\'s better that way." She had been worried about Shin since the energy attack he suffered.

With that, he searched for any available flights to Aston City. But unfortunately, no flights were available.

"Are we going via road?" He was a little distressed.

While he was still thinking about whether to take the ground route or wait for flights to be available again.

In a place only a few miles away from there. Lourein Road, where the mass genocide happened yesterday. The officials of the awakened association were busy with their work collecting bodies and evidence.

Among them, a man wearing Awakened Association\'s uniform was walking beyond his assigned location, disregarding the orders.

"Hey, where are you going?" One of his colleagues asked.

"I need to take a piss."

Hearing this, he didn\'t bother asking, and the man continued walking in a certain direction. But when he arrived near the bathroom instead of entering, he walked past it in a certain direction.

He entered the building where most bodies were present. He was walking towards the same location where Shin and Alice found a large amount of aura of death.

But he wasn\'t invisible like them. He was walking openly. So before he could arrive at the location, he was stopped by someone.

"You are not authorized to enter here." The man saw that it was someone in a higher position than him.

"Um, sir, I\'m lost." He said while scratching his head.

The other person slightly loosened his guard upon hearing this reason. But the man acted at the moment and threw a black kunai, making a hole in his superior\'s neck.

"W-Wha-"

Before he could react, he was already dead.

The man walked toward him with a flat expression on his face. Confirming he was dead, he moved towards the hall with the highest amount of bodies where the aura of death is the most concentrated.

As soon as he entered the hall, his facial features started changing and now it was a young man with green hair and a star tattoo on his cheek standing there.

Feeling the death aura and seeing the number of corpses, he let out a maniacal smile on his face. Then he took out a locket-like artifact with a red skull pattern with two horns on them.

As soon as he poured his red energy into that artifact. The artifact started glowing brightly and started absorbing all the auras of death inside the room.

"Hehehee, just a little more."
