Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources?

Chapter 269:

Holding two third-tier skill books, two Level 3 item cards, two second-tier skill books, two potential points, and 82 experience points, Memphis was considering how to allocate them.

Ding! Third-tier passive skill: Cicada Molt. Skill attribute: Upon taking lethal damage, transfer all damage to a decoy and teleport yourself two meters away. The damage transferred cannot exceed 10 levels above the user. After molting, attributes are reduced by 50% for two seconds. Skill activation: 50% current stamina, 50% current intelligence. Cooldown: 24 hours. Can be enhanced and upgraded.

This is a survival skill possessed by many high-speed entities. Typically, at Level 18, evolved zombies of this type gain the ability to "molt" to avoid fatal attacks.

Memphis didn’t need this skill. He already had the third-tier Illusion Orb, and learning this skill would only harm him. Activating both skills in a critical moment would drain him dry—surviving the enemy’s attack only to die from his own depletion.
