Chapter 282: Chapter 146: Heavy Casualties (Seeking monthly passes at month’s end) 1

“Huff-”

Wang Tao flipped over and lay on the ground.

His body ached all over, his lungs felt like they were burning, and his head seemed like it was about to split open… He really wanted to sleep, but he knew he couldn’t afford to at this moment, otherwise any zombie could come along and kill him.               6

A moment later, Wang Tao finally caught his breath and struggled to his feet. First, he collected all the loot from the gorilla zombie, and then he glanced at the corpse of the zombie, Wu Fei.

“Ah…”

Wang Tao had a purification potion in his hand, which had a certain chance of turning a recently transformed zombie back into a human, but only if the person hadn’t died.

And the zombie, Wu Fei, was already dead beyond dead-his entire head had been split open by Wang Tao’s axe, his crystal core burst out, leaving only the lower half of his face. The corners of its mouth were slightly raised, as though it were smiling.

In his state of extreme weakness, when Wu Fei, who had lost his senses, lunged at him, Wang Tao had no choice but to fight back. Wang Tao didn’t notice that Wu Fei had only a drop of HP left and would die from a single touch.

“Buddy, thanks a lot!”

Wang Tao patted the shoulder of the zombie, Wu Fei, his tone somewhat melancholic.

Initially, when he saved Wu Fei, it was because he saw that Wu Fei was quite pitiable and still alive, and he also wanted to test the effects of the inhibitor.

Wang Tao didn’t expect anything in return from him.

After all, it was the end of the world, and it might have been the first and last time they saw each other.

Plus, at that time, Wang Tao was much stronger than Wu Fei… When Wu Fei said he would repay Wang Tao, Wang Tao just took it as a joke.

Later, Wang Tao unexpectedly saw Wu Fei again, who had accumulated 30% internal impurity in his body.

Wu Fei knew he was beyond saving, but he took it in stride, except for the woman, Ou Yingying, who had betrayed him.

Wu Fei once again said he would repay Wang Tao, and again, Wang Tao didn’t take it to heart.

Afterward, Ou Yingying died. Wang Tao saw Wu Fei once more. By then, Wu Fei had changed drastically, with over 90% internal impurity in his body, on the verge of turning into a zombie at any moment. He was very indifferent, looking at Wang Tao as if looking at a stranger.

Wang Tao wasn’t bothered by it, he just felt sorry for Wu Fei, knowing his life was counting down its final seconds. Maybe next time he went out, he would encounter the zombie Wu Fei had become…

Now, Wang Tao saw Wu Fei for the last time.

Wu Fei’s internal impurity had reached 100%, and he spoke to Wang Tao with a stiff tone for one last time: I told you, I would repay you.

After saying this, he turned into a zombie and then lunged at the gorilla zombie. His move must have been an ability, which deducted a substantial amount of HP from the gorilla zombie and locked it in place, making it impossible for the gorilla zombie to move.

The cost of this ability must have been high, as Wu Fei eliminated 5000 HP from the gorilla zombie, but he himself lost 4999 HP.

Then, Wang Tao took the chance to kill both the gorilla zombie and Wu Fei, who had turned into a zombie.

Wang Tao always felt that his relationship with Wu Fei was that of a stranger at most a somewhat familiar one. Whether the other party repaid him or not ’ Wang Tao didn’t care.

But in Wu Fei’s eyes, Wang Tao was his savior, the person who gave him the chance for revenge. Wu Fei was a man of his word, and since he said he would repay his debt, he would surely do so, no matter in what way.

Perhaps Wu Fei had been following Wang Tao all along, or perhaps he had been following the gorilla zombie, or maybe it was just by chance that he encountered the great battle between Wang Tao and the gorilla zombie…

But no matter what, Wu Fei fulfilled his promise-Wang Tao had saved his life, allowing him to live three more months. So he repaid Wang Tao’s kindness with his own life.

Wang Tao respected him as a true man!

“Hehe…”

After gathering the spoils, several ordinary zombies approached. Wang Tao didn’t even look, he just chopped off the heads of the zombies with two swings of his axe.    °

Then, staggering, Wang Tao made his way toward Wei Zhenguo and the others.

The ground was all muddy, and Wang Tao searched for a while before finally seeing the three of them.

Wei Zhenguo, Xiang Hongbin, and Han Rui were all unconscious, and they were critically low on HP. Wang Tao dragged them to a cleaner place, wiped the mud off their faces, and then used a med kit on them.

Before long, the three of them woke up one after another.

“Am I… dead… Wang Tao? Even you…”

Han Rui looked at Wang Tao beside her, her gaze somewhat hollow.

Wang Tao slapped her lightly on the face without any courtesy.

You re still alive, but if we don’t leave right now, you really could die.”

“Ah? I’m not dead…”

Han Rui was stunned for a moment before she finally understood.

Cough, Wang Tao, what’s the situation?”

Wei Zhenguo and Xiang Hongbin were much calmer by comparison, they didn’t believe in ghosts or gods-conscious meant alive, unconscious meant dead it was that simple.

“The gorilla zombie is dead.”

Wang Tao revealed a smile on his face.

“The gorilla zombie is dead!”

All three of them were surprised and delighted, with Xiang Hongbin even pinching his own thigh hard. He knew he was still alive, but he feared it was all a dream.

“Ouch—painful!”

“Wang Tao, you’re too amazing!”

Han Rui praised him excitedly.

Wei Zhenguo and Xiang Hongbin also looked at him with utmost respect.

The gorilla zombie was supposed to be the most powerful zombie in Shuize County, and as long as they dealt with the gorilla zombie, they wouldn’t have to live in fear every day as they were doing now!

But Wang Tao shook his head.

“This isn’t just my achievement, it’s all of ours. And at the moment of life and death, Wu Fei appeared, he saved my life, and assisted me in killing the gorilla zombie.”
