BXBX NOVEL Chapter 202 - 119 Zombies in the Hospital_2
Han Rui whispered to Wang Tao. The direction she pointed to was still the first floor, but it was the position of the main entrance—the place where Wang Tao had just come in was a side door on the west, and the main entrance was to the south. It led to a lobby where the recharge-payment and medication pick-up windows were located.
Wang Tao wanted to go to the pharmacy, so he would definitely have to pass through there.
With Han Rui’s reminder, the two cautiously made their way to the back of a large column and peered out to see two zombies in patient attire, hiding in the shadows behind the door. They both had [2000] HP.
If someone were to enter from the main entrance at that moment, they would likely not notice them.
Apart from these two elite zombies, there were quite a few ordinary zombies inside the recharge-payment and medication pick-up windows. Judging by their clothes, they were all hospital staff.
“Let’s take care of these two elite zombies first…”
Wang Tao couldn’t determine what type of elite zombies these were, so he chose to attack from a distance.
Taking advantage of the fact that the zombies hadn’t noticed them yet, both Wang Tao and Han Rui picked up their crossbows and aimed at one of the zombies.
Whiz—
[-2000]
With one shot, Han Rui instantly killed a zombie.
Wang Tao was a bit slower, and by the time his crossbow arrow hit the zombie’s head, Han Rui had already killed it!
Seeing the zombie killed by Han Rui’s single shot, Wang Tao and Han Rui exchanged glances, both a bit surprised.
“Its defense is that low?”
After killing this zombie, the other one still didn’t move and continued to lurk behind the door.
“Could this be a stealth zombie?”
Wang Tao frowned but shot an arrow at the zombie by the door.
Whiz—
[-2000]
This zombie was also killed by one shot, and Wang Tao’s HP increased by 50.
After confirming that there were no more elite zombies around, Wang Tao and Han Rui ran over together.
“It really is a stealth zombie!”
Each dropped an excellent quality and an ordinary quality Stealth Crystal Core. The one killed by Wang Tao also dropped two bottles of Stealth Potion (Medium), which were good for evading zombies.
Wang Tao hadn’t realized because they were wearing patient attire, different from the stealth zombies he had seen before. Plus, the elite zombies they had just encountered were also wearing patient attire, so Wang Tao hadn’t immediately thought of stealth zombies.
“I need to be more cautious in the future; I cannot judge zombies by their appearances…”
In terms of attack and defense power, stealth zombies weren’t any different from ordinary zombies. In fact, their perception ability was even inferior, but their sudden attacks were terrifying. If one didn’t detect stealth zombies in advance, it was easy to be caught off guard. But if they were discovered in time, they posed no threat.
“Hehe…”
As soon as they emerged, they drew the attention of the other ordinary zombies, though these zombies were trapped inside the counters and couldn’t get out for the time being.
Wang Tao didn’t concern himself with them. He went to the pharmacy entrance and spent some time unlocking it.
But seeing the empty interior, Wang Tao was somewhat stunned.
“Where are the medicines? Where are all the medicines?”
Inside was nothing but neatly arranged empty shelves, not a single box of drugs.
This didn’t look like the work of survivors taking them, because survivors wouldn’t have left it so clean.
It looked more like the hospital staff had moved them…
“This…”
Han Rui was somewhat speechless; they had gone through a lot of trouble to get to the hospital, only to find not a single box of medicine.
Not only was the pharmacy empty, but also the medication pick-up windows connected to it were devoid of any drugs.
Wang Tao only knew that the hospital pharmacy had medicine; whether there were other warehouses for storing medicines, he had no idea. Han Rui was also clueless.
Fortunately, he came to kill zombies, not specifically to get medicines, otherwise, it would have been a wasted trip.
“Let’s go,” he said.
Wang Tao gestured with his hand and left with Han Rui.
“I sense there are elite zombies upstairs; there’s one at the stairwell here, but I’m not sure what type it is…” Han Rui whispered to Wang Tao.
“I’ll try to lure it down; find a spot to wait…”
“Okay!”
Knowing she wasn’t as fast as Wang Tao, Han Rui didn’t offer to draw the zombie’s attention. She went to the entrance they had used to come in earlier, set up her sniper crossbow, and aimed at the stairwell.
Wang Tao crept silently to the stairwell; he hadn’t yet ascended when he saw the figure of someone in a white coat walking down.
[3000/3000]
“Hehe…”
The zombie suddenly looked up, revealing a ghastly and terrifying face.
A hint of human-like anger appeared on its face, and then it reached into its pocket, as if to pull something out.
“Another throwing zombie!”
Wang Tao immediately turned and ran towards where Han Rui was without looking back.
Being downstairs and not far from the zombie upstairs was too advantageous for a throwing zombie. He didn’t need to risk a fight to the death with a zombie.
The zombie pulled out a surgical knife from its pocket and, seeing Wang Tao run, staggered down the stairs after him.
As soon as the zombie reached the first floor, Han Rui pulled the trigger without hesitation.
“Whiz—”
[-572]
A crossbow arrow hit its head precisely, causing the zombie’s body to jerk back; it was unable to throw the surgical knife it held.
Wang Tao activated his precise shooting ability.
[-321]
[-310]
[-309]
After shooting three arrows in quick succession, Han Rui finally fired her second arrow.
[-628]
Wang Tao shot three more arrows.
[-353]
[-342]
[-165]
The last arrow brought the zombie’s HP bar to zero.
Throughout the encounter, the zombie swung left and right, not getting the chance to wield its knife..
