Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 1444 - 600 The Sun Came Out_2

The awakening ability of a normal person is related to their hidden attributes. For instance, those with healing-type hidden attributes will become healing-type ability users after awakening.

However, the awakening ability of those who awaken through the use of an awakening potion seems to be fixed—it’s only said to "seem" because the sample size is not large enough to be certain. Anyway, as of now, there have been a total of 5 volunteers who successfully awakened using the awakening potion, and all 5 have awakened the same ability.

As to what specific ability it is, Qu Shilin couldn’t say, as she can’t see the attributes. She only knows it’s a system awakening that enhances physical fitness, and it seems not very strong compared to other system awakeners.

System awakening is the most common type of awakening, and there are many varieties, some strong and some weak. Based solely on Qu Shilin’s description, Wang Tao is not clear about which it is. But even if it’s the weakest system awakening, that’s still beyond what an ability user can compare to. It’s like the difference between a Zombie Lord and elite zombies; no matter how strong an elite zombie is, it cannot be stronger than a Zombie Lord.

Therefore, even awakening the weakest ability is still much stronger than an ability user.

This demonstrates how formidable the "awakening potion" created by Qu Shilin is.

Aside from the awakening ability being the same, if you’re asking whether there are any other restrictions on the awakening potion, well, there are. This potion is exceedingly precious. Besides the need for awakening fruits, it also requires many other valuable materials, so its cost is much higher than that of promotion potions. And its current production is limited, which inevitably means it won’t become a common commodity...

"By the way, what’s the success rate of awakening after using the awakening potion?"

Wang Tao seemed to think of something and suddenly asked.

The probability of a successful awakening isn’t one hundred percent, normally, the success rate for the first awakening is 50%, and the more times one attempts to awaken, the lower the success rate becomes, with a minimum of 10%... if the success rate of the awakening potion is too low, then its value would be somewhat discounted.

"I found 10 volunteers, and 5 of them successfully awakened. It looks like the success rate is 50% right now..."

Qu Shilin immediately responded.

"Awesome!"

Wang Tao immediately gave a thumbs up; a 50% success rate was not low.

At this moment, Qu Shilin frowned slightly and said:

"According to my research, people with hidden attributes can also use the awakening potion, which will increase their success rate of awakening! But I’m not sure if they’ll awaken their own hidden attributes or those from the awakening potion... because this is only theoretical, I haven’t had the chance to test it yet..."

"..."

Good grief, the awakening potion can not only help people without hidden attributes to awaken but can also increase the success rate of awakening for those who have hidden attributes?

If that’s truly the case, then the value of this awakening potion could at least double!

"Why not test it?"

Seeing that Wang Tao seemed very interested, Qu Shilin nudged Wang Tao’s arm.

It’s relatively easy to recruit volunteers without hidden attributes to take a chance; after all, they’re willing to pay a certain price for the chance of awakening.

However, it would be troublesome to experiment on people with hidden attributes. Because she cannot guarantee the outcome, it would be embarrassing if someone who could have awakened ends up unable to because of the experiment. Therefore, she’s tried to recruit privately, but no one was willing to come. And most importantly, most people with hidden attributes at Changhe Base are at the Awakeners School, essentially Wang Tao’s students...

Wang Tao is not only the principal of the Awakeners School but also the highest-ranking commissioner, with the power and status to make things much simpler than Qu Shilin could.

Wang Tao probably understood Qu Shilin’s predicament and immediately nodded:

"Alright, I’ll start looking for people right now. After Lightning wakes up and I see how he is, we’ll begin the experiment. By the way, I have some awakening fruits on hand, and I’ll give them all to you..."

Wang Tao gave Qu Shilin all the awakening fruits he got from his trip. He was a bit impatient; as long as Qu Shilin’s theory proves correct, this awakening potion will definitely be a boon to humanity, and Qu Shilin will become a hero to humankind!

"Okay!"

Qu Shilin was also looking forward to it, eager to see if her awakening potion could indeed improve the awakening success rate.

...

In the evening, Yan Guoyi arrived.

"Is everything arranged?"

"Thank you, Mr. Wang—Commissioner Wang, for your concern. Mayor Gu has arranged accommodation for us! As for work, we were given several safe job options!"

Yan Guoyi expressed his gratitude.

Before coming to Changhe Base, he had his reservations, unsure of the fate awaiting them. But once he arrived, he realized how ignorant he’d been—Changhe Base was a utopia he couldn’t have dreamed of!

He didn’t dare to say he could live the rest of his life in peace, after all, this was the apocalypse, but at least he saw hope for humanity’s future. Hope in the apocalypse is a luxury; now, he had seen it...

"Haha, as long as everything is arranged. As for you and those kids... come to my Starfire Society."

These people all had hidden attributes, and although not as high in potential as Xu Quan and Lin Meng, it was still relatively good compared to others and worth recruiting into the Starfire Society.

Yan Guoyi didn’t know what exactly the Starfire Society was, but all he needed to know was that the boss of the Starfire Society is Wang Tao. Coming to Changhe Base pretty much guaranteed they wouldn’t starve and could live a stable life. And if they could follow Wang Tao, it meant they could have a brighter future!
