Chapter 177: Blood Bar Rises Rapidly

An arrow repaired the head of a second-level zombie. Seeing the increase in the upper limit of blood volume, Wang Tao suddenly laughed.

"Go on, let me see how many zombies there are in here!"

The one he just killed was a second-level elite zombie. It was the first one, but it was certainly not the last one. Wang Tao could already foresee that a lot of blood would be added today!

Any zombie killed instantly by Wang Tao will drop a package. So this zombie naturally also dropped a package, but this package was in the sea of ​​fire, and Wang Tao couldn't get it for the time being.

But this also reminded Wang Tao that he had to snatch the zombie's head before it was burned to death. Otherwise, if the zombie is burned to death, not only will his blood volume be unable to increase, but there will also be no loot package. Because the fire burned for too long, it was not considered his death.

Soon, Xu Xiaojun also discovered a second-level zombie in the sea of ​​fire.

【7849/12000】

This zombie still had a lot of health, so Wang Tao didn't rush to take action. Instead, when it only had a thousand health left, Wang Tao shot it with an arrow.

call out--

【-1287】

【0/12000】

Picked up another head.

Before Wang Tao had time to see how much blood volume had increased, Jiang Shixue's voice came again.

"Brother, there are two there!"

Wang Tao ran over quickly.

There were five zombies where Jiang Shixue pointed, but three of them were ordinary first-level zombies. The first-level zombies were naturally ignored by Jiang Shixue.

After killing two second-level zombies, Wang Tao did not take action again. If they were first-level elite zombies, it would still be worth his while. Ordinary zombies would not be necessary. It was just a few ordinary materials, not enough to waste arrows - he was When attacking zombies in a sea of ​​fire, arrows are basically useless after being shot, so save what you can.

Ten minutes later, the fire became more and more intense, and thick smoke shot into the sky.

“I don’t know how much pollution this thing can cause and how many degrees of global warming it can cause.”

Wang Tao smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly.

Before the end of the world, I saw some news every day saying that humans are responsible for environmental pollution and global warming. But he is an ordinary person, and this thing is not caused by him, or has little to do with him. It is okay to ask him to protect the environment, but it is outrageous to dump the blame on him... And now, this thing does have something to do with him. Yes, it was caused by his own hands, but no one was nagging in his ears anymore.

"Roar--"

At this time, Wang Tao heard another roar. He followed the sound and saw a burly zombie.

"Huh? Violent terror?"

The reservoir is deeper than Wang Tao imagined, and the weeds inside are also taller than Wang Tao imagined. If the weeds hadn't been burned, Wang Tao wouldn't have been able to see the two-meter-tall man inside.

It's a good thing he didn't go down, otherwise it would be a disaster if he was besieged by zombies unknowingly.

[HP: 19339/22000]

[Blue amount: 10000/10000]

[Level: Level 2·Elite]

This violent terror is very powerful, with more than 22,000 blood. Even after being burned by fire for so long, it still has 19,000 blood left.

If it were a face-to-face battle, Wang Tao would have to put in some effort, but now, he just had to watch it slowly burn to death.

The Violent Terrorist discovered Wang Tao. With its simple mind, it might not be able to figure out what the fire was about, but it would attack any human it saw.

So after seeing Wang Tao, he immediately raised a thick steel pipe in his hand and hammered it hard on the ground.

A shock wave flew towards Wang Tao, but disappeared when it was still a considerable distance away from Wang Tao.

Wang Tao calmly drew his bow and nocked an arrow, but was not in a hurry to shoot.

The reason why he used a bow and arrow instead of a shock wave was because the distance was too far and the shock wave could not reach it. He didn't dare to get too close. After all, the flames were too strong and he would be hurt if he got too close.

This violent terror walked towards Wang Tao step by step, with flames burning crazily on its body, and its head ignited with flames, like a god of war coming out of hell! A handsome one - of course, it loses health very quickly.

When it came to Wang Tao with some difficulty in the flames, Wang Tao let go of the bow string.

call out--

【-1028】

【0/22000】

The violent terror's health bar was cleared and he fell to the ground.

"It's so considerate, and you know how to come to me."

Including this shock wave crystal core that he has not yet picked up, Wang Tao has two shock wave crystal cores. If he saves one more, he can synthesize a crystal core that he can use!

"I hope I can see another violent terror..."

Wang Tao muttered silently in his heart.

Many zombies appeared later. Although there were no violent terrorists, they were all second-level.

Wang Tao killed very happily, but as he continued to kill, Wang Tao felt that something was not right.

"Why are there so many second-level zombies?"

What Yang Changhong told him at that time was that there were several second-level zombies here.

But now the fire has only burned a small area in the reservoir, and more than ten second-level zombies have been burned out!

Although most of them were zombies with low health, such as zombies with 7,000, 6,000 or even 5,000 health, the number was still too much. This doesn't look like normal!

If there are really so many second-level zombies, Wang Tao will definitely encounter them when he is on the road. Instead of running all the way here to kill zombies now.

Wang Tao suddenly thought of the previous situation at Shuize No. 1 Hospital.

At that time, there were many first-level elite zombies, and he couldn't kill them all. But that was because there was a green-eyed zombie in Shuize Hospital that could upgrade the level of ordinary zombies.

Could it be that there was a similar big guy in this reservoir?

Thinking of this, Wang Tao suddenly became a little excited and a little cautious.

If there really is such a zombie, it is likely to be a third-level one!

Although Wang Tao has killed a third-level zombie, it was a night demon killed by sunlight, which is different from the normal killing situation.

Of course, the current situation is also different-now all the zombies will gradually fall into a sea of ​​fire. If there is really a third-level zombie, Wang Tao is not unable to fight it!

Wang Tao told Jiang Shixue and Xu Xiaojun about the speculation that there might be a third-level zombie here, and asked them to be careful.

The two nodded quickly.

Jiang Shixue was okay. She didn't have much emotional fluctuations in fighting-simply put, she didn't know how to be afraid.

Xu Xiaojun was a little scared, but this kind of fear is human nature. He still firmly believed that even if it was a third-level zombie, Wang Tao could solve it. He had a blind trust in Wang Tao.

The fire continued to burn, and from time to time some second-level zombies would jump out of the flames and be killed by Wang Tao with one arrow.

Wang Tao didn't care whether there were third-level zombies or not, and he would kill all the zombies he could kill first.

Wang Tao estimated that there must be many zombies who didn't have the opportunity to rush out of the sea of ​​fire before being burned to death, and he didn't know how much blood limit would be wasted... It's a pity that Jiang Shixue and Xu Xiaojun couldn't attack remotely, otherwise they could pick up some heads.

The reservoir was very deep, and there were protective railings around it. Even if some zombies rushed out of the sea of ​​fire, they couldn't cause any harm to Wang Tao and the other two.

But there are always exceptions. Some zombies have the ability to jump and can jump up directly, and some zombies have long-range abilities and attack Wang Tao and the other two across the sea of ​​fire.

Fortunately, Wang Tao has always been very cautious, and he has been guarding against this kind of zombies. Only when he sneak attacks the zombies, he doesn't give the zombies a chance to sneak attack.

So the three of them got away with it and easily solved these zombies.

Moreover, Wang Tao found a good thing. Just now, a zombie with the ability of "spitting nails" jumped up.

The ability of spitting nails is to store one-tenth of the food eaten in the stomach, and then spit it out as a weapon.

Let's not talk about the ability of this zombie first. The main thing is that killing it will drop a "magic stomach sac"!

Wang Tao killed three spitting nail zombies before, and each of them exploded a magical stomach sac. And this spitting nail zombie is no exception, and it also exploded one!

"Tsk tsk, I can sell it to Yang Changhong later, if she can come up with something of high value..."

...

Wang Tao originally thought that he would come to the reservoir in the morning, solve all the second-level zombies at noon, and then meet up with Yang Changhong in the afternoon.

But plans cannot keep up with changes. There are too many zombies hiding in the reservoir. The fire burned from morning to afternoon and it was not over yet.

Wang Tao and the other two covered their mouths and noses with face towels. There was no way. The smell of burning corpses was too bad.

He was actually a little worried whether this large-scale fire and smoke would attract other third-level zombies or those mysterious monsters in the wild.

Fortunately, this place might be too remote, and there were only a few scattered ordinary zombies around that were easily dealt with by Xu Xiaojun.

As for the mysterious monsters... there are very few of them, and it is not so easy to encounter them unless you are really unlucky.

"It feels like this fire will not be finished until tomorrow..."

Looking at the fire, Wang Tao was a little helpless.

When the flames started to burn, he could easily make up for it. But after the flames gradually grew, it became difficult to make up for it. The flames burned until now, and there was no way to make up for it at all - because Wang Tao could only hear the zombies roar occasionally, but he could not see where the zombies were exactly. The fire was too big, and the zombies could not get out...

To be honest, it was a bit of a waste, but Wang Tao was also satisfied. He looked at his health bar - [24850/24850]

Before Wang Tao came, the upper limit of his health was 15200, and now it is 24850! It increased by 9650 directly!

Although most of the zombies in the flames are second-level elite zombies, and their health is generally not high, the highest is still the violent terrorist. But there are so many zombies that Wang Tao can't remember how many he killed.

"There are still 5,000 short of 30,000 health..."

Wang Tao was a little excited.

This time he really came to the right place, and it made him think of an idea to set fire, otherwise it would take a lot of time to save up the nearly 10,000 health limit.

There are a lot of weeds in the reservoir. Seeing that the sun has set and it has not been burned out, Wang Tao decided not to leave today and rest here for a night. After all, he hasn't taken his crystal core and loot package yet, and these things are still down there.

The wind direction changed a little in the afternoon, and Wang Tao drove to a different direction. Looking at the shining crystal cores and transparent packages in the sea of ​​fire, Wang Tao felt a little itchy. But he still held back.

After all, the fire below is too big, and there may be zombies hiding somewhere. It's better not to go down before it's safe.

Wang Tao also felt a little strange. The fire resistance of these weeds exceeded his imagination. He wondered if these weeds had also mutated.

But this also had an advantage -

In the past, when Wang Tao threw Molotov cocktails at zombies, the flames on the zombies would be extinguished quickly.

At that time, Wang Tao didn't know what was going on. Later, after some observation, Wang Tao found that the blood of zombies might have the effect of "reducing fire"... So although the Molotov cocktail can burn zombies, it usually can't burn them to death.

Now it's different. If the flame is on the zombie alone, it may not burn for long before it goes out. But now the flame is on the weeds. The weeds are too durable. The zombies can't hide from the flames in the weeds. As long as the weeds are not burned out, the zombies can be burned to death.

"Let's wait, I hope it will be burned out tomorrow..."

Wang Tao and the other two are not going to sleep.

After all, they can't sleep in this situation. After being promoted to the second level, the need for sleep is not as great as before. Occasionally not sleeping or something will not affect their mental state.

The three of them watched the fire burn all night in the car.

Wang Tao was relieved when he saw the sky was white.

What he was most worried about was that the night demon would come at night.

Wang Tao was not sure whether the current strength of the three of them could fight a third-level night demon alone. But he knew that if there were more than two Night Demons, he would have to run away. Night Demons are not lone zombies, they like to appear in groups... Fortunately, nothing happened at night.

The flames in the reservoir were still burning, but the fire was much smaller and concentrated in the middle of the reservoir. As for other places, they were all bare and charred. In the ashes, many crystal cores shone under the reflection of the flames.

"Let's go, pick up crystal cores!"

The surroundings were empty, and it was easy to see if there was any danger, so Wang Tao took Jiang Shixue and Xu Xiaojun directly down.

"Second-level charge, second-level self-destruction, first-level self-healing..."

Looking at these crystal cores, Wang Tao's mouth was almost grinning to his ears.

And not only crystal cores, the zombies he killed before also had loot packages. After collecting all these packages, Wang Tao realized that he had killed 32 second-level elite zombies yesterday!

Then compared with the number of crystal cores, Wang Tao found that he had killed only a small part! Just crystal cores, the three of them picked up more than 80!

In other words, at least more than fifty zombies were burned to death.

It's a bit painful to think about it, after all, these are the health limit and the loot package! If all these zombies are killed, Wang Tao's health will definitely be close to 30,000!

At the same time, Wang Tao was a little worried.

Based on the current situation, there is definitely at least one level three zombie here!

And it may be a zombie similar to the green-eyed zombie that can breed other zombies!

This kind of zombie may be called... the mother zombie?

Wang Tao thinks this name should be very appropriate.

As for where this mother zombie is...Wang Tao looked at the flame that was still burning in the middle of the reservoir. If nothing unexpected happens, the mother zombie may be there!

What puzzled Wang Tao was that the other party did not roar or make any movements, as if he was burned to death.

But this should be impossible, after all, those level one and level two zombies resisted for a while, but this level three zombie did not resist at all?

After picking up everything, Wang Tao and the other two returned to the shore.

"Let's wait a little longer until the fire in the middle goes out, and see what's going on inside."

"Okay."

Jiang Shixue and Xu Xiaojun naturally had no objections.

But this wait lasted until noon.

Wang Tao had just drunk a few bottles of nutrient solution when he saw Jiang Shixue pointing at the reservoir and saying:

"It's gone out."

"Let's go and have a look!"

Wang Tao left without saying anything, taking the axe.

In the middle of the reservoir was a pile of ashes, as if there were a lot of weeds here before.

The three of them dug up the ashes, but didn't see any crystal cores.

"Is there no level 3 zombie? Impossible..."

Wang Tao was a little puzzled, he felt that his speculation should be fine...

Xu Xiaojun took the giant axe to clean up the ashes, and accidentally hit the ground.

Dong——

This sound is wrong!

Xu Xiaojun suddenly said:

"The ground is empty!"

"Empty? Could it be that the level 3 zombies are hiding underground? Keep digging!"

Soon, a large stone slab under the ashes was revealed.

There were some holes on the stone slab, and through the holes you could see that it was pitch black inside, and it was unclear what the specific situation was.

Wang Tao took a look, but didn't even look at the health bar information.

"There's another world below..." After a slight hesitation, Wang Tao said to Xu Xiaojun, "Smash it open!"

"Okay!"

Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue moved away a little, Xu Xiaojun raised the giant axe with both hands, and then chopped down the stone slab on the ground.

Bang!

Crash--

After a loud bang, smoke and dust rose, and the stone slab on the ground shattered instantly.

Xu Xiaojun, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately ran to Wang Tao's side.

The three of them were ready for battle.

But after waiting for a while, nothing happened. After the smoke and dust next to the broken stone slab slowly fell, Wang Tao walked over carefully.

"Huh? A hole?"

Wang Tao was a little surprised.

He originally thought that there might be a pit or something like that below, with zombies hiding inside.

But he didn't expect that this was a hole that was tilted downward, and the hole was not small, enough for Wang Tao to go down.

"A third-level zombie is hiding in there?"

Wang Tao's eyes glowed green. He saw that the hole was not straight, but curved, and he couldn't see the end at a glance.

Wang Tao hesitated whether he should go in.

Rationally speaking, he shouldn't go in. Because the benefits and risks don't match each other - he doesn't know what benefits are inside, nor what dangers are inside.

If there is an intact third-level zombie inside, they may not be able to beat it.

But at this moment, Wang Tao suddenly saw some plants growing a little deeper in the hole. A closer look revealed that they were mushrooms, and they even had names!

[Power Mushroom*1]

[Power Mushroom: Production material, edible. After eating, the strength can be temporarily improved, but you will fall into hallucinations for a certain period of time]

"Power Mushroom? It sounds a bit familiar... Isn't this the core material for making power potion (small)!"
