BXBX NOVEL Chapter 205 - 120 Shao Yong_2
As Wang Tao observed Shao Yong, it seemed as if Shao Yong sensed something. He lifted his head and looked toward Wang Tao’s window.
However, the window was somewhat reflective, and Wang Tao was behind the curtain, so Shao Yong didn’t actually see anyone. But he clearly felt as though he was being watched.
Shao Yong stuck out his somewhat long tongue and licked the corner of his mouth, his face showing a trace of anger. He hated being peeped at.
But Shao Yong felt behind himself for something and found no steel bars. He then glanced at the zombies chasing him inside the hospital and decisively slipped away.
Once Shao Yong had left, Han Rui spoke up softly.
“That person, he gives me a really terrifying feeling…”
“Indeed, he is terrifying. He’s strong, and I’m not necessarily his match.”
Wang Tao nodded seriously.
He felt somewhat regretful; Shao Yong was critically low on HP now, but he was some distance from Shao Yong and couldn’t hit him. There were also many zombies in pursuit of Shao Yong, and he didn’t have much of an opportunity to strike.
“Ah? You can’t beat him? That’s impossible!”
Han Rui couldn’t believe it. In her mind, Wang Tao had always been the most powerful. It was no problem to say that Wang Tao couldn’t beat zombies, as many zombies were quite formidable. But to say that Wang Tao wouldn’t win against survivors… that seemed unbelievable, right?
Wang Tao couldn’t explain the problem with HP and Mana, so he vaguely said,
“My instincts are usually very accurate, and right now, I might indeed not be as strong as him…”
Shao Yong had 4000 HP, while Wang Tao only had 3290… When over 1000 HP, every increase of 1000 HP is quite significant. So theoretically, Wang Tao’s physical condition should be inferior to his.
However, Wang Tao’s physical fitness was originally good, and with the increase in HP, the benefits he received were also larger. Therefore, it was really hard to say who had the better physical condition between the two of them.
But in terms of Mana, Wang Tao couldn’t come close; he only had 1400, while the other had 4000, which meant he had merged with 26 more Crystal Cores than him!
Wang Tao didn’t know how many Abilities Shao Yong had learned, but Wang Tao could only merge with four types of Crystal Cores at most, meaning he could have at most four Abilities.
If Shao Yong also had four Abilities, then his 40 Crystal Cores would be equivalent to having all four Abilities “maxed out” at +10! They’d all be merged to the highest level!
On the other hand, Wang Tao only had one Shockwave at +10, Toughness at +3, and Precision Shooting only merged once. Plus, he only had three Abilities…
So in terms of Abilities, he was theoretically inferior to Shao Yong. Unless Shao Yong had merged with useless junk Crystal Cores, but this possibility was small, since Wang Tao didn’t notice any obvious side effects on him, like Glutton or Mud Swamp.
Anyway, no matter what, Wang Tao didn’t have absolute confidence in winning against him.
Of course, Wang Tao wasn’t going to challenge him to a duel. With so many people at Shuize Base, why would he give him the chance for a duel? Why not just gang up on him instead?
“So what should we do now…”
Han Rui looked toward Wang Tao.
Wang Tao hesitated for a moment and then said:
“Let’s wait a while longer before leaving. It looks like all the zombies from the hospital have come out. Let’s see if we have a chance to hunt down a few more.”
“Mm.”
Han Rui nodded.
Wang Tao and she waited until the sun set, and the roaring of the zombies outside finally lessened significantly. However, it was going to be dark soon, and it was definitely not the time to go out.
“Rest for the night, and things here should be back to normal tomorrow.”
The next day, early in the morning.
The two people in the apartment both woke up early.
Neither of them had slept well the previous night, not because they were up to something shameful, but because it was too noisy outside.
After the apocalypse, things were different compared to before. During the daytime, it was usually extremely quiet, but as soon as night fell, the zombies became extraordinarily active, with their howling non-stop.
Especially since they were near the hospital, which was filled with so many zombies… the noise was simply too much!
If a timid person came here, they would probably be scared out of their wits.
Of course, Wang Tao could block his ears to stop the noise. But even if this weren’t a base, even at a base, he wouldn’t block off his senses like that…
After simply drinking a couple of nutrient drinks, Wang Tao said to Han Rui:
“Let’s go check out the hospital.”
“Okay!”
The two of them cautiously approached the hospital, and after assessing the situation inside, they both gasped in shock.
The hospital was filled with zombies, most of them dressed in white lab coats and patient gowns, and a small portion in regular clothes.
At a casual glance, there seemed to be at least a thousand zombies here, and that didn’t even take into account the many Elite Zombies!
Including the unique Elite Zombies found inside the hospital, such as Attackers, Terrorizers, and even Self-exploders, among others.
This place was practically a haven for zombies!
Not to mention, within the outpatient building, there were countless Mad Demon Zombies…
This was the true face of the hospital!
The reason there were no zombies outside yesterday, Wang Tao guessed, might be because Shao Yong and his group caused some disturbance, which drew the zombies over…
“What should we do now?”
Seeing so many zombies, Han Rui felt her scalp tingle.
If they were spotted by these zombies, they would only have one choice: to run for their lives.
“First, let’s go check the car.”
The two slowly made their way to where their car was parked the day before. The car was intact, undamaged in any way.
Wang Tao breathed a sigh of relief; with the car, they had the means to make an escape.
“Let’s see if we can lure some zombies over…”
Seeing so many Elite Zombies, Wang Tao didn’t want to leave just yet.
“Okay!”
They ambled around the hospital for a while, quickly finding an opportunity..
