Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot
Chapter 716: Correct UsageJade Lotus confirmed that no one had died for the time being and then came over to Wang Tao’s side.
“Thanks to your heart pacemaker, otherwise we would have lost many people…”
Seeing the fatigue in Jade Lotus’s eyes, Wang Tao put his arm around her shoulders.
“You should rest too. I’ll hold them back for a while.”
“Okay. Be careful!”
Wang Tao didn’t immediately deal with the three Zombie Lords, he swiftly moved along the high wall, clearing the zombies wherever they were the most concentrated. As a fourth-order superpower, his intervention instantly relieved a lot of pressure on everyone.
However, this was obviously not a solution. The zombies outside were endless. If they didn’t deal with the Level 4 Zombie Lords, the ordinary and Elite Zombies would continue to barrage the base’s high walls without end. Wang Tao definitely couldn’t outlast so many zombies with his physical strength.
While Wang Tao continued to ponder how to deal with the Level 4 Zombie Lords, he suddenly froze.
The three Zombie Lords in the distance… had disappeared!
Previously, these three Zombie Lords had been outside the southern high wall of Zijin Base, including the Chainsaw Zombie and Bald Zombie killed by Wang Tao—they were all in that direction.As the southern side was the city center of Zijing City, it was where the most zombies and the fiercest siege attacks occurred. The zombies from the other three directions were relatively fewer. Most of the people with strong abilities, like Wang Tao, were stationed here.
But after Wang Tao had quickly circled the base wall, he returned to find the three fourth-level zombies gone!
They were too far away for most to see, only Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue with their Night Vision Ability could spot them. Wang Tao had just left, and Jiang Shixue was elsewhere helping kill zombies and hadn’t been keeping a close watch, so no one noticed the disappearance of the fourth-level zombies.
“Could they have left?”
Wang Tao quickly shook his head.
It was obviously impossible. To the zombies, human flesh was their catalyst for rapid evolution; they wouldn’t just leave!
Wang Tao suddenly had a bad feeling and immediately shouted into the walkie-talkie:
“Those three Level 4 zombies have disappeared! Everyone be alert and check their whereabouts!”
“Ah? Gone?”
Everyone was startled for a moment. Like Wang Tao, they all thought it impossible for the Level 4 zombies to have left—they must still be around, just hidden! And an enemy in hiding would be even more terrifying!
Everyone instantly became tense, but before they could start looking, a loud boom shook the ground!
“What’s happening!”
Wang Tao hurriedly looked towards the source of the noise—the western high wall of Zijin Base.
At that moment, all walkie-talkies sprang to life with a roaring sound emanating from them.
“Sss… The western high wall has been breached! We need backup!”
“What! The wall has been breached!”
Wang Tao and the others were shocked.
After leaving some to continue guarding the southern wall, the rest quickly headed for the western wall.
Wang Tao found it hard to believe.
He hadn’t heard any significant commotion, and the three fourth-level zombies had mostly been in his line of sight until they briefly disappeared—had that short period been enough to breach the wall?
But the intermittent roars coming from the walkie-talkie told Wang Tao it was true.
Wang Tao’s expression turned ugly.
This base was a semi-completed one. Many areas were constructed later, and some of the high walls were among them, nowhere near as sturdy as the original ones—and a part of the western wall was precisely one of these additions!
Wang Tao was the first to reach the vicinity of the western wall.
He saw that the western high wall had split open, leaving a huge gap!
Countless zombies poured out from the breach, madly rushing into the base!
Several human bodies were torn apart and devoured by the zombies.
Fortunately, a group of soldiers with machine guns provided suppressive fire from outside, preventing the zombies from spreading further into the base. But it was clear the soldiers couldn’t hold on much longer!
Wang Tao quickly rushed towards the gap. At the same time, he maxed out his Perception and Plant Affinity to search for the fourth-level zombies. This massive breach had to be the work of a Level 4!
Ordinary zombies causing such a commotion would definitely not be so unnoticed, the base’s combatants would have detected it!
“Found them! Three… four of them!”
Wang Tao immediately located the Level 4 Zombie Lords. They were outside the breach, seemingly still considering sending in the fodder first, hence they hadn’t entered right away.
What shocked Wang Tao was that there weren’t just three but four Level 4 Lords—and the fourth was… a Night Demon!
Wang Tao understood instantly—it was the Level 4, Lord Night Demon that had created the breach!
The other three Level 4 Lords had been distracting everyone’s attention at the southern wall while the Night Demon launched a sneak attack on the weaker section of the western wall!
Wang Tao had seen the other fourth-level zombies during the day; at that time, there was no Night Demon, so he assumed there were only four Level 4 Lords. But it turned out there were five! And they were even capable of strategic deception!
Without any more time to think, Wang Tao charged ahead and within moments arrived at the swarm of zombies below the breach.
Starfire Prairie!
Whoosh—
Flames burst forth from Wang Tao, the intense heat wave pushing back the zombies nearby.
Wang Tao lifted his Flame Long Sword with one hand and charged into the dense mass of zombies like a shooting star.
Moments later.
Boom!
Giant flames lit up the night sky.
Wang Tao swung his sword, and the flaming shockwave ignited and shattered a vast number of zombies.
