Chapter 117 - 91: Capture_2
“What else?”
Wang Tao asked again.
“There’s more… Zombies! Two female zombies! These were brought back by the boss after he stuck the zombies… Both zombies were chained up with iron chains…”
Two zombies, female zombies at that… Wang Tao didn’t know what Cao Xin was up to.
Wang Tao glanced at Han Rui, who came over and said to Wang Tao:
“The people inside are walking on the left, the two zombies are on the right.”
“Mm.”
Wang Tao nodded and then took the keys from Cao Xin’s body, unlocking the iron chain of the iron gate.
Clang—
The iron gate opened, and a nauseating smell hit them. Even with a mask on, Wang Tao couldn’t block it out. It was pitch-black inside, so Wang Tao used his flashlight to look inside.
He saw a group of naked women crouched in the corner on the left, shivering with the light causing them to instinctively cover their eyes. But Wang Tao could still see the numb, empty look in their eyes.
On the right, there were two zombies with their arms chopped off, chained to the wall.
“Hehe…”
The two zombies desperately tried to move forward, wanting to gnaw on these women, but the iron chains prevented them from going too far.
“Do you have another guy? Seems his name is Seventh Brother Yang?”
Wang Tao turned and asked.
“He… He’s gone to see the big boss…”
One of the underlings quickly answered.
“The big boss?”
“Yes, Boss Cao Xin’s boss… The big boss is very powerful, an Ability User…”
The underling didn’t know much, only that such a person existed.
Wang Tao frowned and thought it was time to interrogate Cao Xin properly.
He took out his axe and walked into the warehouse, directly blowing the heads off the two zombies.
The women looked at Wang Tao, their expressions numb, but fear could still be felt.
Wang Tao squatted in front of the group of women.
“You’re all safe now. Just don’t scream, and I’ll let you go in a bit.”
Upon hearing this, a flicker of emotion passed through the hollow eyes of the women.
After confirming all five women were alive, Wang Tao took out his walkie-talkie.
“This is Wang Tao, you can come up now!”
“Roger that!”
Soon after, Xiang Hongbin and the others came up, guns at the ready.
Seeing these fully armed soldiers, the two underlings were shocked; they had no idea whom they had provoked…
Wang Tao briefly recounted what had happened, and upon seeing the women, everyone became furious. Han Rui especially looked like she wanted to flay these men alive.
The two underlings stood there, trembling and keeping their heads down, afraid to speak.
The women, seeing so many people appear at the door, instinctively retreated and huddled together. Han Rui looked at them with pity and turned to Wang Tao:
“Can we take these poor women back to the base?”
“Of course.”
Wang Tao nodded, and then looked towards Xiang Hongbin and the others, who also nodded in agreement.
Shuize Base was short on people; as long as they weren’t heinous villains, they were needed, let alone these poor women. They might not be able to do heavy work, but they could still wash clothes and the like.
Wang Tao asked Han Rui to take two soldiers to release the women’s chains, get them dressed, and then he and his men ransacked the place. In addition to food, they found a police badge and a set of police uniforms.
“Old Song, sigh…”
Everyone sighed.
They had to go back and properly interrogate this Cao Xin, at the very least, peel off a layer of his skin!
Wang Tao asked Han Rui to check if there was anything they had missed, and after confirming there were no problems, Wang Tao waved his hand.
“Let’s go—”
Rumble—
Suddenly, a rumbling noise came from outside.
“What’s that noise?”
Wang Tao quickly went to the window, and then cursed in disbelief.
There was a zombie outside with [5000/5000] HP!
The others were just as taken aback as Wang Tao.
“Shit!”
In the heavy rain below, a giant zombie around three to four meters tall with muscular limbs on the ground like a gorilla, had just punched a discarded car, sending it flying into the mall.
Boom—
“Is this the zombie they referred to? Its destructive power is too terrifying!”
The zombie seemed to go mad, anything in its path—cars, streetlights, bollards—was fiercely thrown. It didn’t spare anything.
A bollard it threw hit a giant billboard on the wall. The billboard slowly fell, smashing onto it, but it didn’t seem to be affected at all…
“This is really a destruction freak!”
“Thank goodness our vehicle was parked on the other side, or we would’ve been in trouble…”
“It seems it hasn’t noticed us…”
The zombie appeared to be focused solely on destruction. It hadn’t noticed Wang Tao and the others upstairs. The noise it caused attracted many zombies, even Mad Demon Zombies. But the behemoth didn’t discriminate between friends and foes; it crushed several ordinary zombies underfoot…
After about a minute of rampaging in the plaza, it finally left.
Everyone let out a sigh of relief.
“Let’s hurry back; it’s too dangerous out here!”
Wang Tao motioned with his hand, leading his group quickly downstairs.
This creature had a full 5000 HP, and its high-attack high-defense style was apparent; Wang Tao didn’t think they could defeat it. Bullets might kill it, but that would attract even more zombies, at a loss not worth the gain.
“Quick, quick, quick!”
Everyone hurriedly got into the vehicle.
In the afternoon, Wang Tao and the others returned to Shuize Base without incident.
“Phew— Finally back!”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The terrifying zombie, dubbed “Gorilla” by the group on the road, exerted too much pressure on them!
