Chapter 269: Chapter 141 Thank You 3
“Huh?”
While Wang Tao was extracting the Crystal Core, he noticed its pair of green eyes had also fallen out.
[Night Vision Eyes*2]
These eyes even have a name!
Wang Tao didn’t have time to look closer and immediately put them into his Space Backpack. Then he searched the Green-eyed Zombie’s body and found nothing else named, but he did find a small metallic card inside it.
“Is this… a negative third-floor access card?”
Wang Tao decisively pocketed it.
After making sure there was nothing else useful, Wang Tao immediately ran towards Han Rui.
Without a Shockwave like Han Rui, it was quite troublesome for one person to fend off so many Elite Zombies.
After Wang Tao arrived, a few Shockwaves cleared out an area before him.
“You took care of that Level 2 Zombie?”
Han Rui was somewhat surprised; she hadn’t had time to watch Wang Tao’s fight, merely perceiving that the life signals of the Green-eyed Zombie had disappeared.
“Took care of it! This zombie was much weaker than the Hooded Zombie!”
Wang Tao briefly explained and then ran with Han Rui to the negative first floor.
But just as they reached the negative first floor, Han Rui’s face turned pale in an instant.
“Not good! It’s all Mad Demon Zombies outside, it looks like all the Mad Demon Zombies in the hospital have come!”
“Don’t worry, we—”
Wang Tao was about to say they should charge out when he saw through the dim emergency lighting that the floor, walls and even ceiling were covered with Mad Demon Zombies!
Good grief, these things can crawl on the ceiling?
Putting aside his astonishment, Wang Tao pulled Han Rui and ran back!
Although Wang Tao could kill a Mad Demon Zombie in an instant, he had already used up a lot of his mana. With so many Mad Demon Zombies, even if he exhausted his mana, he wouldn’t be able to kill them all!
This wasn’t the time to put up a fight!
“Where are we going?”
Han Rui was getting nervous; the Mad Demon Zombies had taken over the negative first floor, and there might be even more of them in the ward areas or outside the building! They were trapped!
“To the negative third floor!”
Wang Tao said calmly.
The layout of the negative second floor was similar to the negative first floor, and Wang Tao quickly found the location of the stairwell, but the door was locked and required an access card.
Wang Tao immediately took out the metal access card he had gotten from the Green-eyed Zombie and swiped it in the card slot next to the keypad.
“Beep-”
The metal door slowly opened.
“Huh?”
Han Rui was shocked; when did Wang Tao get an access card for this place? But she didn’t have time to inquire, and quickly said:
“The Mad Demon Zombies are coming!”
At the entrance of this stairwell, a pack of Mad Demon Zombies were ferociously lunging at Wang Tao and her.
Standing at the doorway, Wang Tao unleashed three consecutive Shockwaves, shattering all the Mad Demon Zombies. Before the next wave of Mad Demon Zombies could attack, the metal door slammed shut with a “bang,” sealing the Mad Demon Zombies outside.
“Phew—That was close!”
Han Rui was somewhat relieved; if they had been entangled by that large group of Mad Demon Zombies, it would have been certain death!
“Let’s go see what’s on this third level and if there’s a way to escape…”
The negative third floor was very dark, with no light inside at all, but fortunately, they both had flashlights. But the moment they turned on the flashlights, both of them jumped in fright.
“…This floor is the mortuary!”
Looking at the bodies on the shelves inside the glass rooms, Wang Tao immediately felt a chill.
However, there weren’t many corpses here, and there were no signs of them turning into zombies.
Negative third floor had an independent electric switch and its own generator, which still had some power left. Wang Tao turned on the lights and carefully checked the area with Han Rui.
There were the morgue, autopsy room, and sample room, among other places.
Although some of the human tissues here looked rather creepy, they were just frightening to look at and actually posed no danger.
“Hm? This door is locked.”
Outside the rest room door, Han Rui looked at the big black lock and iron chain on the door and spoke with some curiosity.
All the other doors on the negative third floor were open, only this place was locked.
What was inside?
“There’s a zombie!” After using her Perception, Han Rui looked at Wang Tao with some surprise. “It’s a very weak ordinary zombie, sitting on the ground and not moving…”
Wang Tao immediately took out his lock-picking tools and unlocked the lock.
Clang clang—
The sound of the chain moving seemed to have disturbed the zombie inside; Han Rui told Wang Tao that the zombie had stood up.
Wang Tao immediately opened the door and shone the flashlight inside.
“Hehehe…”
A petite zombie, wearing a red and white JK uniform, with long hair over her shoulders but with severe body decay making it impossible to see her face clearly, bared its teeth and lunged at Wang Tao.
But there was an iron chain on its body, which restrained it, preventing it from moving too far.
Wang Tao glanced at the small zombie, with only 500 HP, and tempirarily ignored it, instead carefully surveying the rest room.
The room was clean and tidy with no signs of struggle. In the corner were some uneaten clean food.
On the adjacent table were glass bottles, test tubes, a microscope, and other tools and instruments, as well as some paper documents, notebooks, and a mobile phone.
The mobile phone was out of power, so Wang Tao found a charger, charged the phone, and then opened the notebook.
April 4th.
I was invited by Shuize County First Hospital on April 1st to research a rare case. As my high school daughter was a bit weary of studying, I brought her with me.
But I did not expect that on April 4th, a new virus similar to rabies suddenly had a massive outbreak, turning infected humans into the biting zombies seen in movies…
April 5th.
Sadly, my daughter was bitten by an infected person. Although she has not mutated for the time being, various examples indicate that she will definitely mutate, with no luck for the better.
As an expert with some research on viruses, I didn’t want my daughter to die like this. I wanted to try and see if I could develop a cure.
April 6th.
Regrettably, one day was too short a time, and I was powerless to help, as my daughter turned into a zombie. But I didn’t want to give up, I was still human and I still had time.
April 8th.
I had no leads on the cure, but it seemed I had made a little discovery about the zombie virus, which might also be a direction?
April 13th.
I am a failure.
April 18th.
With limited tools, the research progressed very slowly. But I had some results. I risked going outside to get some zombie virus and found out that these zombie viruses are actually different.
April 20th.
I synthesized the latest type of zombie virus. I have a premonition that if I inject this zombie virus into myself, there’s a possibility I might become the cure. Of course, there’s a greater chance that I turn into a terrifying zombie.
April 21st.
I decided to inject myself with the virus.
If you are reading this diary… then it means I failed. Please do me a favor—kill my daughter. I couldn’t bring myself to doit, thank you.
