NOVEL WEB Chapter 299: Zombie Evolution_3
```
Lan Yulian didn't hesitate and healed Wang Tao right away.
Then, her eyes widened in shock. She clearly saw Wang Tao's palm suddenly turn a bit red!
Lan Yulian was immediately filled with surprise and doubt.
"My healing..."
Wang Tao saw a new status appear below his HP bar.
[Fire attribute attack: countdown 59 seconds]
He had gained a "one-minute fire attribute attack" status!
A minute might not seem long, but in a battle with zombies, a minute could determine life or death. Therefore, a minute-long fire attribute attack was quite impressive!
Wang Tao asked Lan Yulian to heal him once more. He found that, after the second healing, his fire attribute attack countdown reset to one minute.
In other words, as long as Lan Yulian kept healing him, he could maintain the fire attribute attack indefinitely!
This mechanic was quite good, especially for an endurance battle!
Seeing Lan Yulian a little confused, Wang Tao explained it to her:
"The purpose of these earrings is to enhance your healing ability, and while you heal others, you also transfer the flame bracelet's fire attack to them..."
"Ah? It can do that?"
Lan Yulian was astonished. Enjoy new tales from My Virtual Library Empire
If that was the case, then wearing the flame bracelet made sense for her, didn't it?
Now somewhat enamored with it, Lan Yulian gently touched the bracelet and then took a mirror to look at the earrings.
Both the bracelet and the earrings were beautiful, especially since they were a gift from Wang Tao! She adored them.
After the fire attribute effect on him had disappeared, Wang Tao said:
"Try releasing Healing Light."
Healing Light was a healing ability that Wang Tao had previously merged for her.
Although this ability didn't greatly increase HP for a single person in one go, as a group-area ability, it continually healed any humans within the range of Healing Light. The longer and the more people stayed within it, the more potential the ability had.
"Okay!"
Lan Yulian immediately used Healing Light.
An aura emerged from Lan Yulian, swiftly enveloping Wang Tao, and they both noticed their hands appeared slightly red.
Wang Tao then looked at his attributes again.
[Fire attribute attack: countdown 3 seconds]
Under the scope of Healing Light, Wang Tao had a fire attribute attack for 3 seconds. And since Healing Light healed every second, just as his fire attribute attack was about to last for two more seconds, he would gain another 3 seconds of fire attribute attack!
Since the consumption of Lan Yulian's Healing Light was low and couldn't be interrupted, she usually had it activated throughout previous battles.
That meant as long as someone was within Lan Yulian's range of Healing Light, they would continuously have fire attribute attack!
On top of that, the healing effect of Healing Light had increased by 10%... Lan Yulian's support capabilities had been greatly enhanced in an instant!
For Wang Tao, the fire attribute's attack wasn't high, unless he managed to ignite the target, but since he had learned the fireball special ability, the igniting effect was much better than the fire attribute attack. So, fire attribute attack wasn't very useful for him.
But it might be different for others! After all, not everyone possessed fire-based abilities or had gone through an Awakening. Having a fire attribute attack for additional damage was quite nice. Furthermore, if they were lucky enough to trigger the ignition ability, the damage would be even higher.
Even if everyone had the worst luck and couldn't trigger the ignition effect, just the added fire attribute damage alone would be significant – a few percent increase per person could result in a huge cumulative boost with a group of fifteen or twenty people involved!
Once Lan Yulian put on the [Flame Bracelet] and the [Ordinary Healing Earrings], in a way, her healing ability had transformed into an attacking ability!
Wang Tao gave Lan Yulian a thorough explanation of these effects because if he didn't clarify, Lan Yulian would surely waste a lot of time figuring it out on her own.
"Am I really that powerful?"
Lan Yulian looked at her hand, somewhat disbelieving.
Wang Tao smiled and took her hand, saying:
"You'll get used to it soon. In the future, you alone may be a match for an entire army!"
"That's an exaggeration..."
Lan Yulian immediately hugged Wang Tao's arm and then gave a kiss on his face.
"I'll go talk to them!"
With her support ability greatly strengthened, she naturally needed to inform her teammates in advance.
"Go ahead."
...
The next day, at seven o'clock in the morning.
Before breakfast, Wang Tao went out to check on the train station clearing situation.
"That was quick!"
Wang Tao was surprised to find that the blockage on the path had been mostly cleared!
"As long as there's no zombie disturbance, our efficiency is definitely not a problem!"
Duan Xuchang, clad in powered armor, came over and looked at the tracks before adding,
"In about three more hours, we should be able to go through."
"Impressive!"
Wang Tao gave a thumbs-up without delay.
Duan Xuchang's estimate was quite accurate. With ten minutes to spare before the three-hour mark, all the obstructions on the tracks had been cleared!
Wang Tao specifically used his Perception to check, ensuring there were no more zombies in the area.
"Board the train!"
At Duan Xuchang's shout, everyone began to board the train.
Accompanied by a deep rumbling, the train started moving slowly.
"We can finally leave."
On the train, Ding Yuqin and her group all breathed a sigh of relief.
Remaining here always carried a certain unease.
The train slowly left the small station, and the noise quickly attracted other zombies from different areas.
But the train's speed picked up, leaving most zombies unable to keep up; those that could catch up or were blocking the tracks were mercilessly cut down or even smashed by the train!
Watching these brutal images through the monitor, Wang Tao and the others felt an inexplicable sense of catharsis.
Just then, Duan Xuchang, who was gazing out at the sky through the window, suddenly spoke.
"The rain...is getting lighter."
Everyone's expression became serious upon hearing this.
The rain is stopping?
That would mean the zombie evolution was imminent!
