“I, I’m a little scared…”
Ding Yuqin sat in the driver’s seat of the pickup truck, looking somewhat afraid.
“Don’t be afraid, just follow me. Let’s go!”
Wang Tao smacked her on the buttocks firmly.
With two vehicles to manage, Ding Yuqin had to drive one of them. Wang Tao had made some modifications to this pickup truck, adding steel plates to the outside and iron wire to the windows. As long as they didn’t run into any particularly formidable special infected zombies, the safety was not an issue.
“Hmm…”
Although Ding Yuqin was scared, she also knew that it was just the two of them, and someone had to drive. Leading the way was more dangerous, so her following in the other car was relatively safe.
Wang Tao led the way in the off-road vehicle, with Ding Yuqin closely following behind, slowly leaving Happy Community.
Wang Tao had originally planned to think of a way to deal with the two special infected zombies they encountered on their way back, but now with an extra vehicle, he thought better of it. He decided to deal with them later.
Nevertheless, Wang Tao still passed by the area where they had seen the special infected zombies, taking a look to see how these two zombies were doing.
“Eh? They’ve split up!”
Through his binoculars, Wang Tao observed that the Self-exploder and the Terrorizer were no longer together; the two were tens of meters apart. If it weren’t for Wang Tao’s sharp eyesight, he might have missed them.
“To do it or not to do it… Let’s do it!”
Seeing a rare opportunity, Wang Tao decided to give it a try. Otherwise, he didn’t know when he would next encounter a Terrorizer.
“Sister-in-law, wait in the car for me. I’ll be right back.”
Wang Tao instructed Ding Yuqin over the walkie-talkie.
“Ah? Oh… okay!”
Ding Yuqin didn’t dare to ask more questions.
Wang Tao, carrying a firefighter axe, braved the heavy rain and approached the tall Terrorizer on the street.
Even though the Self-exploder zombies were easier to deal with, they were too noisy. It was better to deal with the Terrorizer first; as for the Self-exploder, he would ignore it for now.
Just as when he hunted down stubborn zombies before, Wang Tao first dealt with the ordinary zombies surrounding the area before taking on the Terrorizer in a one-on-one fight.
However, this Terrorizer’s senses were sharper than those of the stubborn zombies, and it quickly detected Wang Tao.
Handling the Terrorizer was something Wang Tao was getting quite good at. While dodging its attacks, he took the opportunity to kill all the ordinary zombies in the vicinity.
Bang!
The Terrorizer’s hammer swing missed once more, and the shockwave didn’t hit Wang Tao either.
Wang Tao looked at the zombie, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised.
Now that he had improved in all aspects of his strength, he wondered how much of an advantage he had over this Terrorizer!
Taking advantage of the Terrorizer’s momentary stiffness after its attack, Wang Tao surged forward, swinging the firefighter axe in his right hand viciously toward the Terrorizer’s head.
[-311]
[1689/2000]
The power behind that strike surprised Wang Tao.
He was not clear at the moment how high his damage was. He had wanted to test it on the stubborn zombie, but its defensive power was too high. He could hardly make a dent, so there was no way to test it. As for the ordinary zombies, they were all killed with one axe swing, so there was no way to test on them either.
Now, hitting this Terrorizer, Wang Tao finally had a rough idea of his own lethality — in the past, his pistol would cause 300 damage attacking the Terrorizer’s head, and now, one swing of his axe also dealt roughly 300 damage!
That meant, his full-power strike was now comparable to the power of a bullet from his pistol, possibly even higher. After all, this Terrorizer had more HP, and its defensive power might be stronger…
While pondering this in his mind, Wang Tao didn’t stop his movements. He dodged its attacks and struck its head vigorously with his axe.
In less than thirty seconds, while dodging the attacks, Wang Tao successfully struck six axe blows to its head.
Sputter!
[-410]
[0/2000]
The Rioters zombie fell to its knees, and a purple zombie crystal core popped out from its skull.
Wang Tao caught it casually and then picked up the spoils dropped by the Terrorizer, as well as the weapon that fell. Wang Tao glanced at his HP, adding 50, now showing [1150/1150].
[Received: 2 small Strength Potions]
[Received: 1 Reinforced Concrete Street Light]
The two strength potions were quite good. This street light, like the Reinforced Concrete Hammer, could also be stored in the Space Backpack.
Then came the crystal core.
[Level 1 Crystal Core ■ Shockwave]
[Quality: Excellent (60%)]
[Purity: 50% (Side effect: sensitivity to light)]
The luck wasn’t bad—it was an excellent quality crystal core.
Wang Tao felt around the zombie’s body, and finding nothing but a crushed box of cigarettes, there was nothing else.
At this moment, the Self-exploder zombie seemed to have heard something and started to move slowly towards Wang Tao’s location.
Wang Tao decisively retreated. Having dealt with the Terrorizer, there was no need to confront the Self-exploder. If it attracted a swarm of zombies, it would be impossible to leave.
Quickly getting back to his vehicle, Wang Tao said to Ding Yuqin over the walkie-talkie:
“Let’s get going.”
“Okay!”
The two vehicles hit the road again, this time without stopping, they smoothly arrived at Shuize Base.
Seeing the fence surrounded by barbed wire, the soldiers fully armed on the watchtowers, and the sturdy gates, Ding Yuqin felt a surge of excitement. At last, they had arrived at the Survivor Base!
As their vehicle approached the gate, the doors of the base slowly opened. A few fully armed soldiers saluted Wang Tao’s vehicle.
Having become a member of the base’s committee, everyone was sure to remember things associated with him, like his vehicle.
However, the necessary inspection still had to be done, which was indeed essential. After all, if there were zombies hiding under the car, Wang Tao wouldn’t be able to see them. Although zombies didn’t have such intelligence yet, it was better to be cautious.
