Chapter 281 - 145:1 Will Repay You (End of the Month for Monthly Pass)_3
Wang Tao cursed under his breath; he couldn’t afford to think about how he had avoided the gorilla zombie’s attack. He quickly tried to see where Wei Zhenguo and the other two were, but from his position, he couldn’t see them at all.
Wang Tao shouted into the walkie-talkie:
“Is everybody still alive? Speak up!”
No reply.
Thump, thump—
Just then, Wang Tao felt the ground begin to tremble.
He swiftly turned around, only to see a huge figure covered in mud approaching him.
“Shit!”
Wang Tao quickly took a Rejuvenation Potion and used several medical packs. He suddenly felt a surge of vitality, like a Return to Light, as his energy was restored. But his HP wasn’t full yet.
Then he produced a Weakness Potion and threw it directly at the face of the gorilla zombie.
Smash—
The Weakness Potion bottle shattered, and the gorilla zombie did not dodge or evade.
Wang Tao saw another -20% Weakness attribute appear below its HP bar, and the steps of the gorilla zombie faltered slightly.
But this was a more powerful, full-HP gorilla zombie! Even with a 20% weakness, he couldn’t defeat it!
Wang Tao wanted to retreat, but he had to try to get around the gorilla zombie and see if Wei Zhenguo and the others were dead. If not, he might be able to save them.
Whoosh—
Wang Tao unleashed a Shockwave at the head of the gorilla zombie.
Boom!
[-532]
[9568/10000]
“Huh?”
Wang Tao was surprised to find that his attack seemed to be much higher than before—not that his attack power had increased, but the zombie’s defense seemed to have been reduced a bit!
But… it was useless!
Even with lowered defense, Wang Tao still couldn’t win!
“Roar—”
After being attacked, the gorilla zombie let out a roar, grabbed everything it could around it—trees, rocks, etc., and threw them at Wang Tao’s head, even predicting and throwing them ahead of his path.
Wang Tao’sRush Ability was still cooling down, so he couldn’t use it and had to dodge back and forth.
After a moment, although he dodged most of the attacks and wasn’t injured, the gorilla zombie had already gotten very close.
“No way out now…”
Wang Tao sighed.
He really didn’t want to go all out against the gorilla zombie because it was highly probable that he would die. But he had no choice!
Wang Tao immediately jabbed his arm with a Defense Potion, Running Potion, Strength Potion, and Eyesight Potion all at once.
The effects of these potions were short-lived, but they had long cooldowns. Wang Tao had been holding back on using them, but now it was necessary.
Instantly, Wang Tao felt power fill his entire body, an unprecedented sensation of strength!
Of course, he knew it was an illusion since the duration of these potions was generally only one minute.
“Whew-”
Wang Tao took a deep breath; he knew he couldn’t beat the gorilla zombie, but he had to try, and then find a chance to run away!
With a powerful push off his rear foot, Wang Tao charged straight toward the gorilla zombie, with six Surgical Throwing Knives appearing in his hands.
Swoosh—
The Throwing Knives flew straight at the face of the gorilla zombie.
Thud-
Four were blocked, but two of the Throwing Knives successfully plunged into the gorilla zombie’s cheeks.
[-231]
[-245]
[9092/10000]
Two Throwing Knives caused over five hundred damage, significantly more than before. The gorilla zombie was left with 90% of its HP!
Then, Wang Tao picked up his axe and launched another Shockwave at the gorilla zombie.
Boom!
[-622]
[8470/10000]
This time, the gorilla zombie didn’t dodge, but instead took the hit head-on and threw a punch directly at Wang Tao.
The gorilla zombie was much faster than before, and Wang Tao couldn’t dodge in time. He could only cross his arms and take the brunt of the blow.
With his Level Two Toughness and the effect of the Defense Potion, there should be no problem—
Boom!
[-2125]
[1074/4999]
Wang Tao was sent flying more than ten meters away.
“Pff-”
He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood in midair, then landed heavily on the ground.
“What the hell is this!”
Wang Tao could hardly believe it; the attack power of the gorilla zombie in its current state was just too strong!
“I’m really going to die…”
A look of despair crossed Wang Tao’s face.
Thud—Thud—
The gorilla zombie stepped toward Wang Tao, one step at a time. After transforming, the gorilla zombie seemed much calmer, its pace neither hurried nor slow, but this made the sense of oppression even stronger!
Just then, a lean figure suddenly appeared and collided directly with the gorilla zombie.
Though slender, the figure sent the gorilla zombie flying!
Bang!
Both fell to the ground.
The lean figure turned around and gave Wang Tao a cold glance.
Wang Tao was shocked when he saw who it was.
“WuFei!”
The one who knocked down the gorilla zombie was none other than Wu Fei, whom he had met outside the base some time ago!
But now, Wu Fei’s condition was different from the last time they met!
His HP was still flickering, but it had reached [4756/4999]! And what’s more important, the impurities in his body were as high as [100%]!
Impurities at 100%, and he’s still not a zombie?
As Wang Tao was shocked and puzzled, he saw large amounts of black blood vessels starting to appear on Wu Fei’s neck, face, and even in his eyeballs. His pupils also began to turn white slowly!
“He’s turning into a zombie!”
Wang Tao was somewhat stunned; he thought he would gain an ally, but instead, another opponent emerged?
However, what happened next was completely beyond Wang Tao’s expectations.
The stiff-faced Wu Fei suddenly curled his lips and spoke with difficulty:
“I… said… I would… pay you back!”
After speaking, Wu Fei turned around, kicked off the ground, and lunged at the gorilla zombie, which had just gotten up.
As he turned around, his HP changed from 4999 to 5000!
Level Two… zombie!
And it wasn’t just Wu Fei’s HP that changed. His abdomen suddenly collapsed inwards, and his bloody ribs pierced through the skin, jutting out like a large mouth full of sharp, giant teeth!
In an instant, Wu Fei had pounced onto the gorilla zombie’s head, tightly grasping it, and his sharp ribs plunged into the face of the gorilla zombie!
Splat!
[-5000]
[3410/10000]
He instantly wiped out a full 5000 HP from the gorilla zombie!
Then the gorilla zombie fell to the ground again, and its body stiffly convulsed —it couldn’t move!
“This is my chance!”
Clenching his teeth, Wang Tao suppressed the pain in his body, ran to the gorilla zombie, and then frantically swung his axe at the head of the gorilla zombie!
[-674]
[-742]
[-823]
[-1171]
[0/10000]
Splat!
Finally, the gorilla zombie’s head burst!
“Heh heh—”
After the gorilla zombie died, Wang Tao had no time to catch his breath when he saw Wu Fei let go of the gorilla zombie’s head and pounce directly at him! His abdomen, with its sharp ribs, was still wriggling, as if wanting to swallow Wang Tao whole!
Wang Tao was startled and swung his axe at Wu Fei instinctively.
Splat—
[-1]
[0/5000]
Wu Fei’s HP bar emptied.
Atop Shuizhe Mountain.
A group of zombies dressed in colorful garments, exuding a green gas, appeared rather frenzied.
In the midst of these zombies, a weak figure in a hood raised its head and revealed a pair of blood – red eyes.
