Chapter 218 Hundred-Armed Zombie (Last day for double monthly pass)
This is a zombie that looks like a hedgehog, but instead of thorns, it has rotten, ferocious arms! There are at least a hundred of these arms, and they are waving and squirming, making people's scalp numb.
Wang Tao didn't see where its eyes were, but when Wang Tao looked at it, it seemed to sense something. The arms on its body wriggled quickly like centipede legs, running towards Wang Tao!
“It’s coming! It has the ability to shoot out those arms on its body. People who are hit by the arms will most likely die!”
Lan Yulian explained nervously.
This zombie killed a lot of her people yesterday, and she is still a little psychologically affected.
“Launching arm? There is something...and its perception seems to be very strong. It can detect me even from such a distance..."
Wang Tao looked at the attributes of this zombie.
【HP: 40000/40000】
【Blue amount: 20000/20000】
【Level: Level 3·Lord】
A third-level lord with 40,000 blood!
Looking at this attribute alone, Wang Tao felt that Lan Yulian and the others had good luck yesterday.
If you are not lucky, you will not be killed a lot of people, but you may be wiped out by the group!
“This is a third-level lord zombie. It’s normal that you can’t defeat it.”
Wang Tao said softly.
The third-level zombies that Lan Yulian and the others killed yesterday were either ordinary third-level zombies, crazy third-level zombies, or weakened third-level elite zombies... Anyway, they had never encountered serious third-level elite zombies. Forget about this third-level lord zombie.
“Third-level lord! No wonder…”
The two women were a little stunned.
Lord zombies are much stronger than elite zombies!
If they knew it was a lord zombie, they would definitely run away in advance and not get entangled with it.
But it is not a lord zombie, so it is not easy to judge.
Lords all have territories. If there is only one zombie in a certain area, or there is a very strong zombie, or it commands other zombies - then it must be a lord zombie.
But at that time, there were zombies everywhere and it was chaos. When they saw zombies coming, Lan Yulian and the others' first reaction was to attack. They could only vaguely feel that this was a third-level zombie, but there was no way to tell whether it was an elite or a lord. Not to mention that they killed a lot of third-level ordinary zombies and weakened elite zombies at that time, and they all showed confidence. Naturally, it is impossible to judge accurately.
“Wang Tao, what do we need to do?”
Lan Yulian looked at Wang Tao. She didn't ask Wang Tao if he could win the fight, but directly asked Wang Tao what to do.
Since Wang Tao knew that the other party was a lord zombie but did not run away, it meant that Wang Tao was confident and they only needed to cooperate with Wang Tao.
"You two hide first, I will take the main attack, and Lu Yingfeng will look for opportunities to assist. As for you, protect yourself and look after Lu Yingfeng, and don't attract its attention."
Wang Tao ordered.
"good!"
The two women responded and hid.
Wang Tao swaggered out and faced the hundred-armed zombie.
The two women were very nervous, and Lan Yulian was always ready to add blood to Wang Tao to treat his injuries.
Then they were confused.
As Wang Tao was walking towards the zombie, many black tree root-like things suddenly appeared on his body. In an instant, these tree roots wrapped around Wang Tao, forming a huge set of armor. Wang Tao directly turned into a "monster" two and a half meters tall! At some point a huge white bone knife appeared in his hand!
“This, what is this!”
It was the first time for both women to see Wang Tao like this, and they were both in disbelief.
"Could it be the ability to transform? Where did he get that bone knife from?"
Before they could think about it, Wang Tao had already come into contact with the hundred-armed zombie.
Poof!
Wang Tao couldn't find where the zombie's head was, so he could only attack the rotting arms.
With one strike, several arms were cut off by Wang Tao.
The hundred-armed zombie didn't lose much blood, but it seemed to be very angry. It suddenly jumped into the air, jumped very high, and then hit Wang Tao like a rubber ball.
“Jump so high?”
Wang Tao didn't expect that this zombie was quite flexible.
However, his Iron Wall ability has been activated, and with the blessing of speed, he can easily avoid the attack of the hundred-armed zombies.
Boom—
The masonry floor was directly hit with spider web cracks.
And this hundred-armed zombie was really like a rubber ball. After landing, those arms slapped the ground, rose into the air again, and hit Wang Tao.
Wang Tao did not hide this time, but found the right opportunity and charged up his sword.
This knife uses high-frequency vibration.
boom!
The hundred-armed zombie was directly knocked away, and Wang Tao felt as if his knife had cut into it. A [-3645] damage number also appeared on the zombie's head.
“The defense is not very high!”
Wang Tao grinned when he saw this number. As long as it's not a monster with high defense like the big tree monster, he won't waste too much time.
When the hundred-armed zombie was knocked away, Lu Yingfeng, who had been prepared for a long time, suddenly appeared. Wearing a suit of armor, she clenched the Tang Dao in her hand and stabbed the hundred-armed zombie that was about to fall beside her.
Poof!
ˆ【-1894】
After stabbing him, Lu Yingfeng did not want to fight and retreated immediately.
Wang Tao glanced at her in surprise. The damage of this knife was very high! After all, Lu Yingfeng has not yet reached the third level, and Wang Tao has real third-level combat power. She can do nearly 2,000 damage with one stab, which is really good.
“Quick victory!”
Wang Tao said to Lu Yingfeng.
Since the damage done by both of them is not low, there is no need for ink. Otherwise, if other zombies are attracted, accidents may easily occur.
"good!"
Lu Yingfeng responded.
"Roar-"
After the hundred-armed zombie landed, its arms suddenly trembled, like a dancing master.
Lan Yulian, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly felt dizzy.
Lu Yingfeng, who was closer to the hundred-armed zombie, was even more unsteady and was about to fall to the ground. Wang Tao appeared next to Lu Yingfeng instantly and took her away.
Boom~
As soon as the two left, they saw a zombie falling from the sky and landing where Lu Yingfeng had just been.
“Psychic attack!”
Lu Yingfeng's face looked a little ugly inside her helmet. When they attacked the zombie before, the other party did not use this method. This can only mean one thing - they are not qualified enough!
But this is also a good thing, after all, mental attacks are hard to guard against, and she has no means of resistance.
Wang Tao has fused a lot of crystal nuclei before, some of which can withstand mental attacks, so he has some resistance in this regard.
And Wang Tao just discovered that his entangled tree roots had just lost blood! Can this mental attack also attack his armor?
But he didn’t have time to think too much. Wang Tao asked Lu Yingfeng in his arms:
“Are you okay?”
"fine."
Lu Yingfeng shook her head, and after feeling awake for a while, she quickly got out of Wang Tao's arms.
Even though both of them were wearing armor, and she was held by Wang Tao without any physical contact, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
After Wang Tao let her go, he used the intercom to ask about Lan Yulian's situation.
"I am okay…"
After confirming that both of them were okay, Wang Tao killed them again.
There are other zombies coming here now, we need to get rid of them quickly.
At this moment, the hundred-armed zombie suddenly spun around, and its arms were like javelins, flying towards Wang Tao, Lu Yingfeng, and Lan Yulian hiding in the dark!
Wang Tao raised his bone knife and slashed several times, knocking many arms away.
However, there were too many arms flying towards him, and three of them still hit Wang Tao.
ˆ【-349】
ˆ【-340】
ˆ【-318】
One arm can hit the entangled tree root on Wang Tao's body for more than 300 blood. Although it doesn't seem like much, the three arms together can hit 1,000 blood. And this is even after Wang Tao has blocked many arms.
If other people don’t have the defense of entangled tree roots and are hit by multiple arms, they might be killed instantly!
Wang Tao looked at Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng.
Fortunately, although these two people were a little embarrassed, they both blocked the attack. The biggest contribution is naturally the iron tree armor on their bodies.
“What a strong defense!” Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng were both shocked and happy. They were all prepared to be injured, but they didn't expect that the zombie's arm attack could not penetrate the armor's defense at all. Although they also lost blood, there were no direct wounds, thus avoiding infection.
Lan Yulian first added blood to Wang Tao, then added blood to Lu Yingfeng, and finally added blood to herself.
Wang Tao felt warm all over, and his blood volume instantly returned to full!
He looked at the zombie again. After the zombie shot out part of its arm, the true face inside was revealed—a big sarcoma!
Wang Tao felt a little disgusted when he saw it, so he rushed over with a knife.
The zombies continued to shoot their arms, but this time they did not attack Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng. Instead, they grabbed Wang Tao and attacked them.
Relying on his own strength, Wang Tao managed to carry the attack and break through to the hundred-armed zombie. Then he swung his knife wildly at it.
ˆ【-4584】
ˆ【-4873】
ˆ【-4393】
【…】
Lu Yingfeng found the right opportunity to appear behind the zombies, and she also swung her knife at the zombies.
ˆ【-1849】
ˆ【-1823】
ˆ【-1902】
【…】
The defense of this third-level lord zombie is indeed low, especially after losing those arms, it has basically become a target for Wang Tao and Lu Yingfeng.
It launched several more mental attacks. Wang Tao felt a slight tingling in his head, but it was not a big problem.
A moment later, Wang Tao made the final cut.
ification
ˆ【-5134】
【0/40000】
The zombie health bar is cleared.
Wang Tao immediately put away the loot, cut open the sarcoma, and found a crystal core inside.
【Third-order crystal core·Spike shooting】
【Quality: Excellent (60%)】
【Purity: 40% (Side Effect: Lowered Defense)】
【Spiked shooting: Some spikes will grow on the body, which can be shot out and recycled】
Seeing the properties of this crystal core, Wang Tao suddenly understood.
He said that the defense of this third-level lord zombie was much weaker than he expected. It turned out to be because his ability had a side effect of lowering defense. However, this crystal core refers to long spikes, and this zombie has long arms. It may have mutated during the growth process...
Lan Yulian ran over and faced Wang Tao and Lu Yingfeng with several green lights.
Wang Tao saw that many zombies were already surrounding him, so he immediately grabbed the two women and ran away.
“Go first!”
…
After a while, three people appeared on the roof of a building.
You can just see the diving hall from here.
Looking at the dense zombies outside the diving hall, Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng both felt a little numb.
They can’t figure out why there are so many zombies here! And so many of them are level three!
According to the information the general gave them before, there should not be so many zombies here, let alone so many third-level zombies!
The general's message probably wasn't false... After all, he himself was trapped. If it was false news, he would definitely not come here to take risks...
“Perhaps, they have cultivated a female zombie. I have seen one before...”
Wang Tao explains.
He calls the zombies that can help other zombies improve their strength the mother body.
It was just like the green-eyed zombie I met at the No. 1 Hospital of Shuize County before. And the plant monster I met in the reservoir last time that only cultivates zombies...
Wang Tao originally suspected that these zombies were cultivated by the big tree monster in the underground parking lot. But it doesn't feel like it, after all, it doesn't seem to have anything to protect...
So Wang Tao now suspects that there may be a female zombie here!
If there is a mother zombie, I don’t know what level it is. According to Wang Tao's previous experience, the zombies cultivated by the second-level mother zombies are all first-level zombies. The third-level mother zombies should cultivate second-level zombies, but there are many third-level zombies here... Could it be that there are fourth-level mothers? Zombies, right? Or has the mother zombie undergone some mutations?
Wang Tao also doesn’t know. Anyway, this place is very dangerous. Even if you upgrade to the third level, you have to be careful.
After listening to Wang Tao's explanation of the maternal zombie, the two women suddenly felt a little cold all over their bodies.
If there really is such a zombie here, and it can continuously create powerful zombies...then we will be in big trouble!
“You guys look for the next target first. It’s best if you can find a lord zombie... I’ll take a rest first.”
Wang Tao said to the two women.
In other places, there is a high probability that there is only one lord zombie in an area, but there are too many zombies in this place, and there may be mother zombies, so there may be other lord zombies.
“Okay! Have a good rest!”
The two women nodded quickly.
While Wang Tao was resting, he naturally looked at the harvest.
Compared with yesterday's big tree monster, although they are both third-level lords, this hundred-armed zombie has 10,000 less health than the big tree monster, and its defense is also lower. Its overall strength is much weaker, but the mental attack is a bit weak. Hard to guard against.
The loot is still abundant.
The Hundred-Armed Zombie itself has nothing but a crystal core. But it brought 9,600 special energy to Wang Tao, and Wang Tao’s special energy reached [115,000]!
Then there are three loot packages.
The crystal core gift pack contains five crystal cores.
There are red [Level 3 Crystal Core·Promotion], blue [Level 3 Crystal Core·Almighty], purple [Level 3 Crystal Core·Jump]…
Wang Tao discovered that as long as he killed more powerful zombies or monsters by leapfrogging, he could easily gain promotion and omnipotence. This is pretty good.
But what caught Wang Tao’s attention the most were the last two crystal nuclei.
【Third-order crystal core·Psychic shock】
【Quality: Excellent (80%)】
【Purity: 40% (Side Effect: Blindness)】
【Psychic Shock: Consume energy, turn your mental energy into several colorless and invisible needles and shoot them out. If there are obstacles on the way, the power will be reduced】
Wang Tao's eyes lit up when he saw the ability of this crystal nucleus.
Just looking at the side effect of "blindness", you can tell that this ability is very powerful.
This is still an attack method that is difficult to guard against!
"But it will be blocked... No wonder when I was attacked by the zombie spirit, the entangled tree roots lost blood. It turned out that the entangled tree roots blocked the attack!"
This can explain why Lu Yingfeng and Lan Yulian did not suffer much damage after being mentally attacked - because they were protected by a full set of armor. If it weren't for the armor, it would be very uncomfortable for them to receive this blow, and it might even be life-threatening...
Wang Tao really wants to fuse this [Psychic Shock]. Let’s look back and see if he can get two more. He would not dare to fuse unless the side effect of blindness was removed.
As for the last crystal nucleus, Wang Tao’s eyes also shone.
【Third-order crystal core·Perception】
【Quality: Excellent (60%)】
【Purity: 40% (Side effects: non-female fusion, perception weakened by 50%)】
【Perception: Consume energy, sense surrounding life forms】
No wonder this zombie doesn’t have organs like eyes, and it can quickly detect Wang Tao and the others. It turns out that it has sensory powers!
The ability to perceive is equivalent to a humanoid radar, and it is one of Wang Tao’s most desired abilities.
Although the range of perception is not as large as his plant affinity, the accuracy is much stronger than his plant affinity! If perception and plant affinity could be used together, it would probably be radar plus perspective!
It’s a pity that Wang Tao has never encountered zombies with sensory abilities. He currently only has one sensory crystal core in his hand, which is of the second level.
Now I have obtained another third-order sensory crystal core. Although there is no way to synthesize it with the second-order crystal core, I might be able to get it if I save more.
However, Wang Tao suddenly had an idea -
If he directly fuses the second-level perception ability first, then uses the Almighty Core to upgrade it to +10, and uses the Promotion Core to upgrade it to the third level! Finally, he uses the extraction ability to extract it and turn it into a third-order sensory crystal core... In this case, does he have two third-order sensory crystal cores?
It’s just that he doesn’t know whether the core extracted in this way will weaken the perception ability by 50%...
“You can give it a try later!”
Wang Tao looked at the second loot package. Here is the potion.
【Obtain: Spiritual Growth Potion*20】
Wang Tao uses all the good things that permanently increase mental power.
After a period of cool and refreshing feeling, Wang Tao felt that he was much more energetic, and the fatigue from the previous battle had all disappeared, and his whole body felt comfortable, as if he had finished making the big sword - although he had never done it before.
Then the last loot package. There are actually two drawings inside.
【Obtained: White Bone Standard Hand Crossbow Blueprint*1】
【Obtain: White Bone Crossbow Arrow Blueprint*1】
