Chapter 396: 183: Synthesizing Abilities Again_1
“Are you all okay?”
Yang Changhong’s voice, filled with concern, came through the vehicle’s intercom.
She had been informed by Wang Tao ahead of time about the plan to deal with the two Level 2 Zombies. Although she believed that Wang Tao and his group should not be in too much danger, she still couldn’t help but worry a little, given that there were so many zombies.
“We’re fine, just speed up,”
Wang Tao said, glancing at the zombies that were following behind them.
“Okay!”
Yang Changhong nodded and then ordered the convoy to start accelerating.
She had not stopped the convoy just now, but she did slow down a bit to wait for Wang Tao. Now that Wang Tao had caught up, it was natural to start speeding up to get away from the zombie horde as quickly as possible.
But it was hard to see clearly when driving at night, especially since there were often obstacles on the road. Wang Tao, taking up the rear, saw that the convoy couldn’t pick up speed, so he took the initiative to lead the way at the front.
With his Night Vision, those obstacles were naturally nowhere to hide. Gradually, the overall speed of the convoy began to increase.
Just when it seemed they were finally about to shake off the zombie pack, the nerves of everyone, still taut, had yet to relax when Wang Tao’s voice suddenly rang out through the intercom:
“Everyone, be alert! A Level 3 Night Demon Zombie has appeared!”
“A Level 3 Night Demon Zombie?!”
The group was shocked. They had already struggled to deal with Level 2 Zombies, how on earth were they supposed to handle a Level 3 Zombie?
But luckily, Wang Tao reassured them:
“Don’t worry too much, the Night Demons are not as fast as we are running. Keep up the speed, and they won’t catch us.”
Wang Tao knew that the disturbance would definitely attract Night Demons, so he wasn’t surprised to see them.
The Night Demons were among the zombie horde in the rear. If it weren’t for him being able to see HP, to see a few zombies with significantly more HP, he probably wouldn’t have noticed them.
But as he said, no matter how fast the Night Demons were, they were not as fast as the vehicles once they got up to speed. As long as they maintained a good pace, there wouldn’t be any problems.
“It’s a pity there are too many zombies, otherwise we might have a chance to try…”
Wang Tao looked at those ferocious zombie faces and felt a bit of regret.
His own strength had increased significantly, and he felt he was now capable of taking on a Night Demon Zombie.
But there were too many zombies right now, and there wasn’t just one Night Demon, but at least ten!
In such a case, there was no choice but to flee.
The Ordinary Zombies were not as fast as the Night Demons, and it didn’t take long before the convoy could no longer see the trace of Ordinary Zombies. However, about a dozen Night Demons were still doggedly pursuing them.
Yang Changhong and the others had never seen Night Demons before, only pictures in a guidebook. Now confronted with these terrifying and ferocious zombies, they felt an immense pressure—greater even than the pressure the zombie horde had given them!
Suddenly, one of the vehicles shook and slowed down.
“Car 4, what’s happening!”
Yang Changhong, who had been keeping an eye on the convoy, called out as soon as she noticed Car 4 seemed to be falling behind.
“Boss, I didn’t notice a zombie under the car. It just climbed onto the window and startled me, but I’m okay!”
The driver of Car 4 quickly responded.
“Then hurry up and catch up!”
“Yes!”
Car 4 began accelerating again. However, it had slowed down considerably and was now at the very back, making it difficult to speed up again.
That’s when the driver of Car 4 heard a thud, as if something had landed on their roof.
“Boss, boss, please check what’s on my roof!”
The driver of Car 4 urgently called out through the intercom.
Yang Changhong quickly glanced over and her heart sank.
“Night Demon! There’s a Night Demon on your roof!”
Gulp~
In an instant, everyone heard the sound of Car 4’s driver swallowing his saliva.
A Level 3 Night Demon was on his roof!
This was it!
Thud! Thud! Thud!
After landing on the roof, the Night Demon started banging furiously. The car was getting rocked by the impact.
The driver of Car 4 looked up and saw that the roof was starting to dent!
“Boss, I don’t want to die!”
He suddenly cried out, sobbing.
Although he had long anticipated this day might come, nobody could stay calm when faced with impending death.
Yang Changhong’s expression turned grim. She rolled down her window and opened her mouth towards the Night Demon on the roof of Car 4.
Whoosh—
An object shaped like a nail shot out from her mouth and instantly hit the Night Demon Zombie.
“Roar—”
After being hit, the Night Demon roared, but it did not attack Yang Changhong; it continued to furiously pummel the roof of Car 4.
Yang Changhong spat out several more nails in succession. Although most of them hit their mark, they seemed to have no effect.
“So this can’t even draw its attention…”
Yang Changhong’s expression darkened. This was her first attack after she had recently learned the Spittle Nail Ability. She had synthesized a new Level 2 Ability, which took about a few minutes.
Now that she had finished synthesizing, her first attack caused no significant effect, which was distressing for her.
She didn’t expect to directly repel the Night Demon Zombie; she just wanted to draw its attention. Considering the high speed of the convoy, if the Night Demon Zombie got distracted and tried to leap onto her vehicle, it would most likely fall straight to the ground.
Unfortunately, whether it was proof of the Night Demon Zombie’s intelligence or its stubbornness, it was fixated on whoever was in Car 4.
“Don’t panic, wait for me!”
At that moment, Wang Tao’s voice came across the intercom.
As the lead vehicle, he slowed down slightly and soon moved to the second to last position, getting very close to the Night Demon on top of Car 4.
