Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 1138 - 462 Spirit Insight_2

As she spoke, Qu Shilin’s previously hazy eyes cleared up quite a bit, and Wang Tao could see in her eyes a sliver of desire, but even more of curiosity, exploration, experimentation, and inquisition…

“…”

Darn, are you using me for experimentation?

Can I tolerate this? Absolutely not!

So, Wang Tao sat with Qu Shilin at the edge of the bed, and their spiritual powers entwined unrestrainedly.

Ten minutes later, Qu Shilin, sweating profusely, released Wang Tao.

Her spiritual power was not as strong as Wang Tao’s, so she was the first to concede. Wang Tao’s forehead was also covered in fine sweat; the spiritual world was different from the real world. Just one look at Li Qiuyu was enough for a round of Mental Deep Communication. Now, with Qu Shilin, as their gazes intertwined, they had communicated countless times in those ten minutes, and even he was beginning to struggle…

However, this was different from physical interaction; although both were exhausting, physical interactions were mostly about satisfying a duty whereas Spiritual Communication could enhance spiritual power!

Therefore, Wang Tao felt tired and exhausted, but every cell in his body seemed to be relaxing, which was very satisfying!

“This… this is Psychic Awakening, huh… it feels so good…”

Qu Shilin looked at Wang Tao, her eyes seemingly able to drip water.

“…Don’t misunderstand, not all Psychic Awakeners can communicate like this, it’s just that the two of us can…”

“Oh…”

Qu Shilin didn’t quite understand all of this, but she quickly adjusted her status and instinctively moved closer to Wang Tao, telling him about her own Awakening.

Wang Tao already knew about the ability of Spiritual Communication; it was mainly the “using spiritual power to observe all things in the world” that Wang Tao wasn’t clear about the effects of.

And after their conversation, Wang Tao couldn’t help but exclaim how impressive it was.

Her Ability was just like Wang Tao’s Mental Detection; both used spiritual power to observe their surroundings.

But unlike Wang Tao, her detection range was even shorter, meaning she couldn’t see as far. Yet her spiritual detection was so detailed that she could see things even Wang Tao couldn’t, down to the cells, bacteria, viruses, and such!

If they both used spiritual power to detect a person, Wang Tao at most could penetrate the other’s clothing and flesh to see their bones and organs. Qu Shilin could not only see these but also could see cells, bacteria, viruses, and the like!

If Wang Tao’s Mental Detection was a magnifying glass, then Qu Shilin’s Mental Detection was a microscope!

And this was exactly what Qu Shilin needed, as it was perfect for scientific research!

With Wang Tao’s help, once Qu Shilin understood what her Awakening entailed, she joyfully hugged Wang Tao tightly.

“I have a feeling that those projects of mine that have been stuck without progress are about to have a breakthrough!”

Qu Shilin had many projects at hand, but due to limitations like equipment, technology, and materials, many had not progressed.

But now, with her Awakening, she was confident that she could achieve breakthroughs in these projects!

“Congratulations, congratulations!”

Wang Tao congratulated her again.

“Thank you! If it weren’t for you, my life might have just stayed the same. Even if I had the chance to become an Awakener later, I probably wouldn’t have experienced this awakening. My combat abilities are nothing special, so I might have just remained insignificant…”

Qu Shilin’s face was earnest as she thanked Wang Tao.

If it weren’t for Wang Tao, any misstep along the way and she wouldn’t have ended up with today’s outcome… Thank goodness for Wang Tao!

“We’re all on the same team, no need for thanks!”

Wang Tao felt a hint of awkwardness, “the kind when one betrays a good friend,” as he spoke those words.

In the past, he had called Qu Shilin “one of us,” but the meaning of “one of us” today was not quite the same as before.

He didn’t know what Qu Shilin herself was thinking, after all, the development of their relationship had been quite unexpected…

It was clear that Qu Shilin read between the lines in Wang Tao’s words. Her cheeks were somewhat red, but instead of evading or regretting, she looked straight at Wang Tao.

“From now on, I’ll be with you. I hope you won’t mind my lack of experience…”

Her relationship with Wang Tao had always been good, and she had a very favorable impression of him. But her heart had been in her research, focusing on how to eliminate the Zombie Virus, with little interest in romantic matters. She had thought her life would either end in the jaws of a zombie Monster or in lonely old age.

Yet, after today’s event, her thoughts naturally changed. She had already experienced “Spiritual Communication” with Wang Tao, and she had a good impression of him. She also sensed that Wang Tao held her in high regard, with both parties liking each other—although it had been a platonic affection before, it wasn’t wrong to transform it into romantic love now!

And this deep Spiritual Communication with Wang Tao was genuinely comforting!

“What are you saying!”

On hearing Qu Shilin open up, Wang Tao couldn’t help but break into a grin.

He never forced anyone, but if there were mutual feelings, he wouldn’t refuse. At worst, they’d work harder to earn money and support their family.

Wang Tao wrapped his arm around Qu Shilin, and the two of them just sat on the bed in silence, without taking any further action.

However, when both had regained some spiritual power and Wang Tao was about to engage in deep communication with Qu Shilin again, she suddenly said:

“I want to go back!”

“Ah? Right now?”

The sky was still dark.

“Uh-huh! I can’t wait any longer!” Qu Shilin looked at Wang Tao, her eyes somewhat reluctant. “Though I find Spiritual Communication with you very comforting and would like to stay here, I can’t forget what’s important! There’s so much more I need to do… So, I want to go back to my research!”

Truly a workaholic, engrossed in her work even amidst such an ambiguous atmosphere.

Naturally, Wang Tao supported her decision; he wouldn’t hold Qu Shilin back in this respect.

“Okay! But take these with you…”

Wang Tao handed over a large number of Awakening Crystal Cores to Qu Shilin.

She would definitely use a significant amount of spiritual power during her work, and without the Crystal Cores, how could she manage?

“Thank you!”

Qu Shilin was very grateful for Wang Tao’s support and understanding.

She hugged Wang Tao’s neck and awkwardly kissed him on the lips.

After a moment, Wang Tao stood up and said:

“Let’s go, I’ll take you back.”

“Okay!”

After they left the house, everyone else found out that Qu Shilin had also awakened.

Wang Tao gave them a brief update on Qu Shilin’s Awakening Status, and then personally escorted her back to the research institute.

Upon reaching the institute, Qu Shilin expressed her desire to concentrate on her research for a while. Unless Wang Tao urgently needed her, she would wait until she had made a breakthrough before coming out again.

Wang Tao, of course, was supportive.

“Good, I wish you every success!”
