Chapter 1309: Chapter 540: Testing the Summoning Altar_3

The three of them were familiar with the medical kit, and they skillfully used the various items inside to treat themselves. However, they didn’t know what the Rejuvenation Potion was.

"It can save your lives for now."

Wang Tao didn’t bother explaining too much.

But his words made the three even more excited.

Their condition was very poor, and even though there were no zombies outside, it was still questionable whether they could make it back to Silver Serpent Base. Unless there was a doctor or a nurse to treat them, a luxury they clearly didn’t have right now.

But with the potion Wang Tao provided, if it really had the effect Wang Tao described, they could find the vehicle hidden nearby and make it back!

The three didn’t hesitate and immediately used the Rejuvenation Potion.

Moments later, their pale complexions visibly reddened, and their faces showed visible surprise.

Thump—

Shen Cuishan knelt directly in front of Wang Tao.

"Thank you for saving our lives, Brother Liu!"

The other two were slower to react but followed suit and knelt down to Wang Tao.

"Thank you for saving our lives!"

Regardless of the situation here or where the Sixth-Rank Lord-led Zombie Herd had gone, the fact that Wang Tao had rescued them was certain. Without Wang Tao, even if there were no zombies outside, they wouldn’t dare to go out, and the ultimate outcome would be to die trapped in the basement.

So, to them, Wang Tao was their savior, and gratitude was necessary.

"No big deal." Wang Tao waved his hand, then asked, "What happened here after I left?"

Left? Did Liu Bo leave before?

Once the three no longer felt the pain in their bodies, their thoughts also became much clearer. Yet they didn’t ask much, and Shen Cuishan immediately explained to Wang Tao.

After Wang Tao disappeared, they didn’t change their plan, but just as the Poison Gas Bomb completely detonated, and they were hiding outside waiting for the hour countdown and praying that the factory’s zombies wouldn’t come out, a group of zombies suddenly appeared!

When they spotted the zombies, the leaders of the zombies also spotted them. They weren’t given any time to react; the zombies immediately charged at them. It was then that they realized that the leader of the zombies was a Sixth-Rank Lord!

In a frontal battle, they couldn’t even beat a Level 5 Lord, let alone a Sixth-Rank Lord. They had no choice but to run! But they couldn’t outrun the Sixth-Rank Lord and were quickly caught up.

Then... it was a one-sided slaughter. The twelve Level 3 ability users, being the weakest, naturally died first.

Yu Li relied on his high defensive power trying to break through; their vehicle was hidden nearby, loaded with bombs and other weapons. If they could use the vehicle and weapons, perhaps there was a glimmer of hope.

But Shen Cuishan and the others saw with their own eyes that Yu Li was too slow. He was directly caught by the Sixth-Rank Lord Zombie, who then brutally tore off his head! His proudly defended defensive power couldn’t withstand a single blow!

Seeing no escape, the three had no choice but to flee into the factory. While setting up the bombs earlier, they had found a basement in the factory. There was no poison gas below, which might provide a temporary refuge.

But there was still some distance to cover, and during their escape, the zombies caught up with them and beat them half to death. Moreover, their attackers weren’t the Sixth-Rank Lord but other Elite Zombies. If the Sixth-Rank Lord had attacked, their Level 4 strength wouldn’t have withstood a second blow.

Although eventually, they managed to get into the basement while enduring the poison gas, they were nearly out of breath.

This kind of poison gas couldn’t kill the Sixth-Rank Lord, but it seemed somewhat wary and thus didn’t enter the factory but also didn’t leave, seeming disinclined to move...

At that time, Shen Cuishan and the others definitely couldn’t have survived a second poisoning, and above them was the Sixth-Rank Lord-led Zombie Herd... so what awaited them was only death.

But unexpectedly, they were rescued, and the rescuer was none other than Liu Bo, whom they had thought was long dead.

"So that’s how it is... You guys better hurry back, don’t delay your treatment."

After learning about the situation, Wang Tao urged them to leave quickly.

The three exchanged glances, and Peng Nan tentatively asked:

"Mr. Liu Bo, where did this zombie herd go?"

He could see some signs of battle here, but no corpses were left behind... He guessed that the zombie herd must have left, although he didn’t know why. Could it be, was this Mr. Liu Bo the one who led them away?

But that seemed unlikely... Although Liu Bo was accompanied by a harmless little girl and a cute and handsome large wolf-dog, he was after all just a Fourth-order Awakener. How could he lead away a Sixth-Rank Lord?

"They were killed by me."

Wang Tao stated the truth.

But no one believed him. Peng Nan and the others opened their mouths, unsure of what to say.

Even the idea of Liu Bo leading away the zombies was absurd, let alone killing them? No way, absolutely impossible!

And if he really had killed the zombies, at least some corpses should be left behind...

The three exchanged glances again, and decided not to ask further.

They felt that perhaps it was indeed possible that Liu Bo had led them away! Perhaps Liu Bo had used some trump card that he couldn’t tell them about... so they wisely chose not to inquire further.

At that moment, Shen Cuishan suddenly said:

"Brother Liu, to thank you for saving our lives, I have a valuable piece of information to share. Can we talk privately?"

Peng Nan and Zhuo Song looked at Shen Cuishan oddly. Clearly, they also didn’t know what Shen Cuishan meant by this information.

Wang Tao was somewhat surprised but nodded.

"Alright."

After moving away from Peng Nan and the others, Shen Cuishan approached Wang Tao and whispered:

"I’ve discovered a place before, where entering can enhance one’s strength! But the price is the lives of others... Not many people know about this place, I’m one of them, Peng Nan and the others don’t know..."

"..."

Could it be that Shen Cuishan’s charm of other people was aimed at this? And Shen Cuishan’s HP was indeed higher than theirs...

But what Shen Cuishan described, why does it sound so much like a Summoning Altar?
