BXBX NOVEL Chapter 113 - 90 Assault_l
“Wang Tao, are you alright?”
When Wang Tao came out of the bedroom, Ding Yuqin hurriedly ran over and grabbed his hand, asking with some concern.
“Of course I’m fine,”
Wang Tao replied with a smile.
“Eh? What’s this? Why is it so hard?” Ding Yuqin was taken aback, then she held Wang Tao’s hand, a curious look on her face, “Your hand…
“I’ve learned a new Ability that can make some parts of the body hard. Let’s try it out tonight.”
Wang Tao poked Ding Yuqin’s cheek with his rigid fingers.
“Ah? How are we going to try it — Hey! You’re so bad!
Ding Yuqin’s face suddenly reddened, perhaps thinking of something. She lightly punched Wang Tao’s chest.
“I haven’t even said anything yet! Sister-in-law, you sure know a lot, huh?”
“…You pervert! Time to eat!”
Ding Yuqin’s face was still red as she pulled Wang Tao to the dining table.
After a simple meal, Wang Tao said to Ding Yuqin.
“I have something else to do; you tidy up the house. If you need help, just call the guards outside.”
“Okay! I’ve got to get all these leeks planted…”
In the afternoon, Wang Tao went to the main building again. Only Wei Zhenguo and Ren Jie were there.
“You’re done already? Did it go smoothly?”
Wei Zhenguo was somewhat surprised.
“It’s done, everything went smoothly.”
“That’s great! Then let’s discuss how we’re going to deal with the survivors at the old mall!”
Wei Zhenguo used the walkie-talkie to call over the other committee members.
After discussing, they decided to have Wang Tao lead the team. Wang Tao would take the lead, with the others supporting him.
With Shuize Base’s strength, they could easily deal with those survivors. However, the problem was that there was a particularly powerful zombie there. Judging by the way the first floor of the mall was destroyed, this zombie was too strong, and they might not be able to defeat it. Zombies don’t fight with honor; they come in large groups…
For safety’s sake, it’s better not to use guns. After all, they were going for revenge, not a mutual destruction.
Of course, if they didn’t use guns, they had to try not to let the other side use guns as well.
So, they could only have Wang Tao lead the team. Given the current situation, without the use of thermal weapons, Wang Tao was likely the strongest person in the base. He was an Ability User with combat Abilities. If he couldn’t handle it, then no one else could.
“Wang Tao, how many people are you going to bring with you?
Ren Jie asked.
“Just one person. The rest of you just need to back me up from the outside.
Wang Tao shook his head.
Going by himself or with one other person, the adversaries probably wouldn t be too vigilant.
But if there were more people, it might threaten them, and that could cause them to open fire.
“Just two people… Okay!”
Wei Zhenguo was a bit worried, but he remembered having seen an Ability User, whose combat strength was much stronger than that of an ordinary person. Without guns, ordinary people had no chance against Ability Users. Although he had not seen Wang Tao’s true strength, Wang Tao obviously wouldn’t be worse than the Ability User he had seen before.
“Who are you bringing? Old Xiang? Little Lu?”
Wei Zhenguo asked again.
Xiang Hongbin and Lu Gang both looked at Wang Tao eagerly, wanting to try their luck.
They had not yet had a chance to watch an Ability User fight; they wanted to witness it firsthand.
But Wang Tao shook his head and named someone else.
“Han Rui.”
“What?”
Everyone was taken aback.
“You’re taking Han Rui? Is she a strong fighter?”
Ren Jie was puzzled.
“Not really. It’s just that I promised her the opportunity to take revenge with her own hands. You know, I knew her before and we had some ties.”
“I see… No problem! As long as she doesn’t object to it.”
Wei Zhenguo nodded.
Han Rui, being a detective, was capable of fighting and wouldn’t slow Wang
Tao down.
After discussing a few more details, they decided to go the next day.
The current rain made it easier to move out. If they waited for clear weather, it would be much more dangerous to go out.
After confirming the plan, Wang Tao went downstairs to look for Han Rui. She was there just in time.
“Tomorrow, you come with me. The two of us are going to the old mall together.”
“Thankyou!” Han Rui wiped her swollen eyes and gratefully responded to Wang Tao before asking, “Do I need to make any preparations?
“Just rest well and be in your best shape.”
Wang Tao patted Han Rui’s shoulder.
“Okay!”
After confirming there were no issues with Han Rui, Wang Tao went back.
He wasn’t bringing Han Rui because she had asked for his help, but because of her Perception Ability.
As the saying goes, even when a lion hunts a rabbit, it uses its full strength. Wang Tao knew that Cao Xin and his four men were no match for him, but he wasn’t going to let his guard down. Therefore, it was necessary to bring Han Rui. At the very least, she could sense if the opponents were hiding people ready to ambush him.
That night, Wang Tao didn’t fulfill his promise to ‘try it out’ with Ding Yuqin. After all, there was a battle tomorrow, and it was better to conserve energy. This caused Ding Yuqin to cast somewhat resentful glances toward Wang Tao. She had been ready to receive Wang Tao’s ’whip’, but he didn t come… Wang Tao’s self-control was still quite good. After exercising at night, he washed up and went to bed, rising early the next day.
After finishing the breakfast carefully prepared by Ding Yuqin, Wang Tao left the house fully armed.
The rain still hadn’t stopped. Looking at the rain outside, Wang Tao furrowed his brow. This on-and-off rain had lasted for over a week. Although it wasn’t pouring, such persistent rain had caused puddles on the road.
