Chapter 414: Chapter 189: nt Affinity_1


    After swallowing the Magic Seed, it would take ten days to germinate.


    And now, ten days had passed!


    Wang Tao found that the countdown below his HP bar had disappeared, but in the section for Hidden Attributes, there was one new attribute.


    [Hidden Attributes: Improved Body Conditions, Night Vision, nt Affinity]


    There was an addition of “nt Affinity”!


    [nt Affinity: Ability to partially sense the feelings of nts]


    “Hmm? What does this mean?”


    There were no nts in the room where Wang Tao was, so he went outside.


    It had already gotten dark; without using his Night Vision Ability, he could barely see the outside surroundings.


    Then, Wang Tao closed his eyes, thinking about using his Hidden Ability of nt Affinity.<div>


    A momentter, Wang Tao’s eyes widened.


    “This is kind of magical!”


    Although he had closed his eyes, he could still vaguely “see” the environment around him!


    Wang Tao, as if having found a fascinating new toy, conducted numerous experiments, even pulling Jiang Shixue and Xu Xiaojun to join him.


    After researching for an hour, Wang Tao had roughly figured out the use of his Hidden Ability.


    His nt Affinity seemed somewhat like a Perception Ability. However, its actual effects were inferior to those of the Perception Ability.


    Wang Tao had discussed before with Han Rui and knew what it was like to use the Perception Ability.


    To put it simply, Han Rui could sense most living creatures within the range of her Perception Ability! The reason it was “most” was that she couldn’t detect creatures that were too small, like insects.


    Her Perception Ability was powerful: zombies and humans alike had nowhere to hide in front of this sense!


    Wang Tao’s nt Affinity was a bit different, though. It was as if he could…municate with nts? “Communicate” wasn’t exactly the right word because these nts had no intelligence… Rather, it was that he could sense the faint movements of some nts and then deduce the situation from these movements.


    In simpler terms, if someone was surrounded by no nts or was floating above them, Wang Tao couldn’t sense them.


    If someone were to walk on nts or move them with their hand, then Wang Tao would be aware that there might be a person or a zombie in that spot…


    So in terms of sensing alone, Wang Tao’s nt Affinity couldn’tpare to Han Rui’s Perception.


    But his nt Affinity had some capabilities that the Perception Ability did not possess.


    The Perception Ability could only see events that were happening at the moment, whereas nt Affinity could deduce past events by examining the condition of nts.


    For example, if someone had stood on awn ten minutes ago, Wang Tao could sense the state of the nts to deduce that something bipedal had passed through here ten minutes ago and from the way it walked, it was most likely human…


    So, to a certain extent, Wang Tao could see the “past”.


    Of course, it must be said that the Perception Ability is very intuitive; you see what’s happening as it happens.


    However, his nt Affinity was not as direct as Perception; it required his analysis and judgment, demanding the use of his intellect…<div>


    Nevertheless, this was already quite good for Wang Tao.


    After all, it could be considered as nearly half a Perception Ability!


    He had previouslyined that things would be much easier if Han Rui were around. Now that he had this ability, he could take over some of the tasks that Han Rui used to handle.


    Wang Tao experimented for a while longer; he now had a profound understanding of his sensing range and what kinds of nts were most suitable for sensing.<div>


    His sensing range was actually quite substantial. Standing in the middle of the mall, he could sense all the nts inside! This was muchrger than the range of Han Rui’s Perception Ability and it didn’t even consume any of Wang Tao’s Mana.


    However, his sensing wasn’t very precise. He had Jiang Shixue try to move around in the building at random, and as long as she didn’t touch any nts, Wang Tao couldn’t detect her presence. Moreover, Wang Tao couldn’t gauge the exact strength of a potential adversary, only able to analyze through his own experience…


    As for which nts were most suitable, naturally, those were the likes of grass or moss. These nts were abundant and hadrge areas. A slight touch would leave a trace, allowing Wang Tao to “see” that trace and deduce the general situation there.


    In the past, the use of this ability might have seemed limited or only appropriate in the wild. But now, with nts everywhere in the city, this ability seemed to have significant potential!


    This Hidden Ability was, after all, a supplement to Wang Tao’s perception capabilities.


    Having gained a new ability, Wang Tao decided to test its effectiveness right away.


    “Little Xue, let’s go out and take a look.”


    “Sure~”


    Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue went downstairs to the Haochen Hotel together.


    It was night, and there were quite a few zombies on the streets, but the night vision posed little issue for the two of them.


    The Haochen Hotel had also grown many nts inside, such as weeds, mosses, and ivy, which Wang Tao could make use of.


    Feeling around the base of the hotel’s outer wall, Wang Tao quickly sensed that there were several people moving methodically upstairs, as if they were… patrolling?


    But just from this, it was obviously impossible to reach any conclusion.<div>


    So, after contemting for a moment, Wang Tao threw a few stones into the building.


    The noise was minor, but it instantly attracted the attention of many people. The figures that Wang Tao could feel suddenly increased; he waited silently.


    About ten minutester, the people inside seemed to realize there was no danger and went back to sleep.
