BXBX NOVEL Chapter 203 - 119 Zombies in the Hospital_3
Wang Tao asked Han Rui to observe the surroundings while he hurriedly collected the zombie’s Crystal Cores and spoils of war.
[Level 1 Crystal Core-Throwing Master]
[Quality: Excellent (40%)]
[Purity: 50% (Side Effect: Irritability)]
This was a Crystal Core of excellent quality, which could be combined with the previously acquired one of excellent quality!
[Acquired: Medical Kit x51
[Acquired: Surgical Knife xio]
[Acquired: Surgical Knife x5]
The pack of the doctor zombie contained 10 surgical knives, and he had another 5 in his pocket, making a total of 15 knives. Along with the previous 14 knives, that makes a total of 29 surgical knives.
Even if they could only be used as disposable weapons, that quantity wasn’t small. Not to mention the crucial point was that these surgical knives could be stored in the Space Backpack…
After securing the spoils of war, Wang Tao signaled for Han Rui to come to the stairway entrance.
He was about to ask Han Rui to use her Perception, but when he saw the situation upstairs, Wang Tao frowned.
“The second floor is blocked…”
When he had come to attract the doctor zombie just now, Wang Tao had immediately retreated without going upstairs.
Only now did he notice that the staircase from the first floor to the second was completely blocked off, impassable. Moreover, Wang Tao saw that there were many bullet holes…
“Could it be that there are many zombies inside?”
Wang Tao murmured softly, stroking his chin.
“Probably not? I only sense one zombie behind this. But my Perception range is limited; there could be others elsewhere…”
Han Rui also didn’t dare to be conclusive in her statement.
“Let’s check out the other staircases.”
The outpatient building had a total of five staircases and four elevators.
The elevators were located near the south gate and were now inoperable. After making a round, Wang Tao and Han Rui found that the paths to the second floor were all blocked off in the other four staircases as well.
If one staircase was blocked, it could be for any number of reasons. But if all five staircases were blocked and there were many bullet holes… it wasn’t wise to hold out hope; it was dangerous upstairs! The blockade must have been done by the military! They probably took the medicines away as well…
Even though Han Rui used her Perception at the entrance of all five staircases and confirmed that there were only a few zombies near the stairway entrances, Wang Tao still didn’t want to take any risks.
If he really wanted to go up, he could climb up the exterior wall or pry open the elevator doors and go up the elevator shaft. But it wasn’t necessary; being reckless wasn’t an option.
“Forget it, let’s go look somewhere else; we won’t go up…”
Wang Tao shook his head; the hospital was so large, there were certainly more than just a few zombies.
“Okay!”
They left the outpatient building and strolled around the hospital courtyard.
Besides a few Ordinary Zombies, they didn’t encounter any Elite Zombies.
“Something’s not right…”
Wang Tao frowned.
Both Wei Zhenguo and Chen Zhuang had told him before that there were many zombies in this hospital, and it was a terrifying place. But now, Wang Tao had only seen a few zombies and didn’t feel any horror…
Could it be that these zombies had all left? Or were they all blocked in the upstairs of the outpatient building?
Leaving was unlikely since they hadn’t seen any zombies wearing white lab coats on the way.
And being blocked upstairs was even less likely since it was clearly a blockade put in place by the military during the outbreak of the virus. When the Mizusawa Base Peacekeeping Unit arrived at the hospital, the virus had already fully infected it, and the timing didn’t match…
Wang Tao subconsciously glanced at another building.
Behind the outpatient building was another connected building encompassing the emergency center, the ward building, the imaging center, and more.
If those zombies hadn’t left and weren’t in the outpatient building, could they be in that building?
Just as Wang Tao thought of this, he saw Han Rui hurriedly tugging at his sleeve.
“Wang Tao, look at the inpatient department!”
Wang Tao quickly raised his binoculars and looked in the direction Han Rui pointed.
On the tenth floor of the inpatient department’s windows, several Ropes dangled down, with the other ends tied inside the windows of the ninth floor. “I just saw two people climb from the tenth floor to the ninth floor using that Rope!”
Han Rui urged in a low voice.
“People? Could it be Shao Yong?”
Wang Tao suddenly furrowed his brows.
If someone was there, it was likely him!
His survival wasn’t beyond Wang Tao’s expectations. He was, after all, a capable man who wouldn’t die that easily.
However…
Wang Tao glanced at the hospital’s windows again.
He had just been wondering if the zombies that had disappeared from the hospital had all run into that building.
Now, seeing Shao Yong in that building, he was likely going to come out.
If the zombies really were all in that building, wouldn’t he end up startling so many of them…
Thump—Thump—
Suddenly, Wang Tao thought he heard some noise, like the sound of something walking.
“What’s that sound?”
Han Rui became somewhat nervous.
Wang Tao looked towards the connected buildings and then swiftly grabbed
Han Rui’s arm.
“Let’s go!”
Han Rui didn’t understand, but she quickly shouldered her sniper crossbow and followed Wang Tao as they ran outside.
Bang!
As the two reached the western gate of the hospital, a gunshot suddenly rang out from the inpatient building above.
A moment later.
“Hiss—”
“Roar—”
Countless eerie sounds emanated from within the hospital.
Wang Tao quickly surveyed the surroundings, his face changing instantly.
He saw at the window of the second floor of the outpatient building they had just left, a large group of agile figures appearing. They climbed down the wall and rushed toward the inpatient department like a black tide.
“Damn it!”
Wang Tao was shocked by the scene.
The upper floors of the inpatient department were filled with so many Mad Demon Zombies! Was this like a lair for Mad Demon Zombies?
From the other connected buildings, some Mad Demon Zombies began to run out as well, not just Mad Demon Zombies, but also a lot of Elite Zombies!
Wang Tao looked again, and in the distance, some Mad Demon Zombies were running towards the hospital, and they were blocking Wang Tao’s path. However, there weren’t as many as the ones inside the hospital.
“Run fast!”
Without any hesitation, Wang Tao charged straight towards the outside Mad Demon Zombies.
“Roar—”
These Mad Demon Zombies saw Wang Tao and immediately lunged at them with gaping jaws and flailing claws.
Wang Tao pulled out his axe, sending out a Shockwave.
[-1831]
[-1802]
[-1734]
[…]
Now with 2000 HP and high defense, Wang Tao couldn’t kill the Mad Demon Zombies in a single blow. Although he swung his axe again, killing those zombies, more Mad Demon Zombies noticed him and surrounded them.
Wang Tao could deal with these Mad Demon Zombies, but he didn’t want to prolong the fight. After all, there were too many zombies in the hospital, and it would be troublesome if he drew too much attention.
“Han Rui, carry me and use Rush!”
“Okay!”
Han Rui grabbed Wang Tao and immediately activated the Rush Ability. Boom-
In an instant, a streak of white light flashed by.
Some Ordinary Zombies were directly smashed apart, and several Mad Demon Zombies were sent flying into the air.
Wang Tao and Han Rui had already appeared thirty meters away, breaking out of the zombie encirclement!
