Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot

“Purchasing a Level 2 Crystal Core? What price should we offer…”

Nie Siyan asked.

“Let’s allow them to set their own prices.”

Considering the substantial differences in price between various types and qualities of Crystal Cores, it was impossible for Wang Tao to list all the prices.

“Yes! So, should I start preparing now?”

Nie Siyan appeared eager to begin.

She wasn’t afraid of Wang Tao assigning her tasks since having tasks meant she was still of use. If Wang Tao completely ignored her, that would be the real trouble…

“Right, while you’re at it, inquire if there are any news about Level 2 and Level 3 zombies, we are willing to pay for them.”

“Yes!”

Wang Tao waved his hand.

After Nie Siyan left, Wang Tao pulled out the map of Zijing City.

He had marked many places, some tagged with “suspected Level 3 zombie.”

For the current major forces in Zijing City, Level 2 Crystal Cores were exactly what they needed, as there were quite a number of Level 2 ability users by now. If there were Level 2 zombies, they would certainly attempt to kill them. In general, they would not easily reveal the location of Level 2 zombies.

Level 3 zombies, however, were different. It was said that not even people from the four major forces had taken the initiative to engage with Level 3 zombies.

Therefore, some places suspected of having Level 3 zombies slowly became known to people. They would try to avoid these areas when they went out.

The information about suspected Level 3 zombies had been obtained by Wang Tao from Huang Heng. He planned to select a few, then test out the strength of Zijing City’s Level 3 zombies. That was, of course, if they were indeed Level 3 zombies. If they were above Level 3, Wang Tao would definitely run as far as possible.

After making a selection, Wang Tao chose a location closest to the video arcade.

It was a hotel, rumored to have a Level 3 zombie inside. It was unclear how strong it was, but previously, a Level 2 ability user had been killed by it.

Wang Tao surmised it was likely a Level 3 Zombie Lord!

Because ordinary and Elite Zombies generally wandered aimlessly and would not appear in a fixed place. But Zombie Lords had their territories. This one seemed to fit the bill.

With Wang Tao’s current strength, dealing with Level 3 Elite Zombies shouldn’t be difficult. As for Lord Rank zombies, he could try taking them on.

Of course, Wang Tao would first have to check how much HP the zombie had; if it was too high, then he definitely wouldn’t consider it.

Once he had decided on a target, Wang Tao called Jiang Shixue and Xu Xiaojun, ready to do some reconnaissance.

“Mr. Wang, good day!”

When coming downstairs, the members of Firefly Club immediately greeted Wang Tao upon seeing him.

Wang Tao nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

His current status was Nie Siyan’s honored guest, and she had already informed her subordinates to show him the same respect they would show her.

“Brother Wang, are you going out?”

At this point, Nie Siyan came down from upstairs.

She had just been contacting other forces using a walkie-talkie on the rooftop. Changing the name of Skull Club and the purchase of Crystal Cores was definitely something she needed to discuss with others. 𝙧ᴀ𐌽Ộ𝐁Ёṣ

Seeing Wang Tao heading downstairs, she hurriedly ran over.

“I’m heading to Danfeng Hotel.”

Wang Tao nodded.

“Danfeng Hotel… *cough* Well, Brother Wang, how about taking me with you? There’s a force nearby, and I plan to go there…”

Nie Siyan’s courage had grown significantly, if it had been the day before, she definitely would not have dared to join Wang Tao proactively.

“Then let’s go.”

Wang Tao looked at her.

Once in the car, Nie Siyan sat up straight and told Wang Tao that she wanted to visit a small force. Their strength wasn’t much to speak of, but their leader was very capable. Although only a Level 1 ability user, he was often seen running around outside.

Nie Siyan, a Level 2 Ability User herself, wouldn’t dare to wander around recklessly, sticking only to familiar routes. This made it evident how capable the leader of the small force was.

Nie Siyan wanted to recruit this person into the Firefly Club, after all, Wang Tao had said he would investigate the locations of Level 2 and Level 3 zombies and purchase Level 2 Crystal Cores. These tasks required someone to go out and about. Nie Siyan knew she was not up to the task, so she needed to recruit some people.

If it was the former Skull Club, it was very unlikely they could recruit this person due to the club’s bad reputation. But the Skull Club was no more, now it was the Firefly Club, so she was going to give it a try.

“Just you?”

Wang Tao was a bit surprised.

Shouldn’t this kind of task be delegated to subordinates? Even if the club president personally went, shouldn’t they bring some staff along? A president going alone seemed somewhat shabby.

“It’s more convenient alone, and if there’s danger, I can escape quickly…”

Nie Siyan immediately said.

Being alone was indeed convenient, but that applied to the powerful. It wasn’t suitable for her. The main reason she went out alone was that she had no subordinates left.

Skull Club originally had three hundred people, but Wang Tao—or rather Huang Heng—sold off more than two hundred sixty of them. Now, the Firefly Club was down to just over thirty people.

Now, after switching operations, most people went out to scavenge supplies, and her ability user subordinates had to guard the base since their arcade was quite large, and they couldn’t relax security… so naturally, not many people were left.

Wang Tao didn’t speak, but gave Nie Siyan a look.

Feeling Wang Tao’s gaze, Nie Siyan quickly spoke up.

“*cough* You can’t hide anything from Brother Wang, truth is, we’re a little short on staff…”

Only then did Wang Tao look away.

“If I find out you’ve been deceiving me again, don’t bother coming back.”
