Wan An did not dare to be careless and slowly raised his hunting gun.
With a three-point physique zombie, he was already forced to use his main weapon; after all, close combat could easily lead to accidents.
Wan An's eyes locked tightly onto the running zombie, and as the distance between them closed to just three meters, he firmly pulled the trigger.
F-level skill, Precision, activated. It greatly increased the hit rate of ranged weapons.
At a distance of three meters, combined with the skill, there was no chance of missing.
"Boom." The loud noise of the homemade hunting gun shook his eardrums. Wan An sidestepped, dodging the zombie that lunged towards him.
After the zombie fell to the ground, it struggled violently, seemingly dazed from the tremendous power of the hunting gun.
The homemade hunting gun had clearly been modified, and the powerful shot struck the zombie's head. Although it wasn't a one-shot kill, it smashed the zombie's face to pieces.
Wan An quickly reloaded, stepped forward, and fired another shot at the back of the zombie's head.
The zombie twitched twice on the ground and then stopped moving.
Seeing Wan An succeed in the challenge, the teammates below breathed a sigh of relief. Wan Ping shouted directly at his brother on the stage, "Wan An, come down."
"Challenge successful, you have received one bottle of basic healing potion. Do you wish to challenge the next level?"
Without a second thought, Wan An shouted, "Give up," and then a flash of light appeared, bringing him back to the side of the crowd.
He handed the newly acquired protective suit to Lin Li and said directly, "That was dangerous. If the zombie had tackled me, I would have been dead. The next level is no longer something I can challenge."
"Yeah, and the difficulty of the challenges is increasing. To be safe, Brother Tao can challenge the fourth level, but Lin Li and I can only stop at the third level. Also, the fourth level is likely not the final stage, so for us, the ultimate treasure might be out of reach." Wan Ping analyzed calmly and couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment.
"This brother, if you don't challenge, our people will continue." Guan Tao said to Wen Yu. Since there was no hope for the ultimate treasure, it didn't matter whether they continued early or late.
"You all continue, don't mind me."
Wen Yu shook his head in disappointment upon seeing the rewards from the first three levels. The only worthwhile item was the basic healing potion; these few people were too weak, and the gains were minimal.
Guan Tao and the others discussed, and the next person to challenge was Lin Li.
As a mage, Lin Li's post-class skills included F-level Swift, which could briefly boost the movement speed of the target. However, the duration was only three seconds.
Once Lin Li went on stage, he completed two challenges before stepping down.
It was evident he was someone who valued his life and was afraid of unexpected incidents.
Wen Yu watched as Wan Ping, like Wan An, completed three challenges and then directly stepped off the stage. He couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.
With just these few people, they couldn't test the depth of the challenge levels.
Guan Tao nodded seriously to his teammates. "I'm going up."
"With Brother Tao's strength, you should be able to challenge a few more levels, but don't be impulsive. Once the challenge starts, if you fail, it could mean death."
"Yes, I know." Guan Tao unusually didn't make jokes.
Wen Yu still had a bit of interest in the strongest member of this small team, as this level represented the high-end combat power of human survivors at present. He turned his gaze back to the stage.
Guan Tao had a physical attribute of four points, and clearly, before the apocalypse, he was an athlete with well-developed motor skills.
Guan Tao stepped onto the stage, quickly challenged three levels, and obtained the basic healing potion. He slightly relaxed his body, picked up the awarded steel knife, holding it in both hands.
"Do you wish to challenge the next level?"
