Chapter 1738: Chapter 736: Killing_2

"I want to get up too~"

Perhaps their relationship had taken a step closer, Ding Yuqin’s tone carried a bit of coquettishness as she reached out to Wang Tao, completely different from the usual serious Ding Yuqin everyone knew.

"Alright then."

Wang Tao smiled and helped Ding Yuqin up from bed, the blanket slid down, revealing a picturesque view.

"Ah~"

Ding Yuqin had forgotten about this and suddenly felt a bit shy.

But Wang Tao was very calm; what hadn’t he seen in the past life? This life was just like being an old married couple.

He held Ding Yuqin and took a shower together, then got dressed and went downstairs.

Han Rui and the other ladies had already prepared a simple breakfast and were waiting for them downstairs. For Ding Yuqin, who was rather thin-skinned, she slightly fell behind Wang Tao, somewhat playing the ostrich, while Wang Tao boldly took his seat.

After quickly finishing breakfast, Wang Tao waved at them:

"I’m heading out, contact me through the intercom if you need something."

"Alright!"

Then, Wang Tao flew out of Shuize Base with Taxue.

In the previous life, that gorilla zombie never had a fixed position, constantly moving within its territory, which kept expanding until it encompassed the whole Shuize Base.

Wang Tao had searched for it within the previous life domain of the gorilla zombie but didn’t find it. He had thought it wouldn’t come out this time, but unexpectedly, it appeared again, and unlike the previous life, it wasn’t within the previous life domain, and its strength was obviously much stronger.

"It should be here..."

Looking at a distant office building, Wang Tao stroked his chin and murmured to himself.

Wei Zhenguo’s message indicated it was here, saying the whole office building was occupied by the gorilla zombie. They only observed it from afar; noticing its astonishing strength, they hurriedly retreated.

Seeing such a place, Wang Tao subconsciously thought of Night Demons. They like living underground or in buildings. However, Night Demons are at least Level Three, and they should not have appeared yet.

Wang Tao flew directly to the rooftop of this office building.

Thump, thump——

He could clearly hear a giant creature moving inside the building.

"Sure enough, it’s here!"

Apart from the movements of the gorilla zombie, Wang Tao did not hear other noises, so he directly landed at the entrance and launched an attack on the building.

Sizzle——

Rumble~

The Heat Energy Beam destroyed a pillar at the office building’s entrance, causing the canopy to collapse directly.

The massive noise instantly attracted a large number of zombies, naturally including the gorilla zombie inside the building.

"Roar——"

Firstly, a roar came from inside, followed by a crash, as a massive creature broke through the glass wall of the office building, descending from above the third floor, targeting Wang Tao.

Wang Tao had already pinpointed the gorilla zombie’s position, so he wasn’t hurried and just flew up, effortlessly dodging the gorilla’s attack, and began surveying this former life’s big boss.

[HP: 100000/100000]

[Mana: 20000/20000]

[Level: Level 2 - Lord]

[Ability: War Cry, Self-healing, Power, Frenzy]

[War Cry: Gives a roar that shakes the heart and mind, causing target dizziness and loss of HP]

[Self-healing: Slowly restores certain injuries over time]

[Power: Greatly increases strength]

[Frenzy: Automatically triggers Berserk when HP is below 30%, can only trigger once a day. Upon Berserk, HP, Mana, Physical strength, and Spirit recover to full, size increases, all negative status removed, attack power greatly increased, speed moderately increased, defensive power moderately decreased. Berserk lasts for 1 hour, after which normal state resumes]

The reason Wang Tao called it a gorilla zombie was that despite having a human head, its arms were particularly robust, running on all fours like a gorilla, hence the name gorilla zombie.

Now the gorilla zombie’s appearance wasn’t much different from the previous life, its body was rotting, muscles exposed, but it was extremely burly, as big as a small building, with an overwhelming presence.

But the most important wasn’t its appearance, it was the attributes - it actually had a hundred thousand HP!

This was the most HP Wang Tao had seen in a creature in this life so far. As for Wang Tao himself, he only had a little over a thousand HP.

However, HP didn’t directly equate to power; abilities were what mattered most. This gorilla zombie had four abilities, identical to the previous life, which Wang Tao had seen.

Its attributes were definitely at the peak of Level Two, just as Wang Tao had speculated.

Yet, for Wang Tao, it still wasn’t a big problem.

Roar——

The gorilla zombie missed its attack upon landing, it raised its head looking at Wang Tao in the sky, immediately emitting a roar, then picked up stones from the ground and flung them at Wang Tao.

Whoosh——

Wang Tao easily dodged the gorilla zombie’s long-range throws while two Heat Energy Beams hit the gorilla zombie’s forehead.

Sizzle——

[-2201]

[-2081]

[-2223]

[...]

Though the gorilla zombie’s HP was intimidating, the damage Wang Tao dealt was not insignificant, instantly knocking off ten thousand HP.

Roar!

The gorilla zombie seemed angered, grabbing rubble and old cars from the ground at random and throwing them up.

Although its speed was swift and throws powerful, it made no difference to Wang Tao. He could still easily dodge all attacks while continuing to attack it with the Heat Energy Beam.

In just a short time, the gorilla zombie was down to half HP.

The less HP it had, the more irascible it became, but Wang Tao remained airborne, beyond its reach, making it a sitting target.

Finally, its HP fell to 30%, as expected, it unleashed the Frenzy ability in front of Wang Tao.

Watching its attributes instantly recover to full, Wang Tao grinned.

Sizzle——

[-3012]

[-3116]

[-3221]

[...]

Although the gorilla zombie’s status was refreshed, the Heat Energy Beam inflicted even more damage. This was because the Frenzy ability reduced some defense while recovering the status and increasing attack.

Yet, it seemed the gorilla zombie had gained some intelligence, knowing now to evade Wang Tao’s attacks post-Frenzy. If it had continued being passive under Wang Tao’s attack, it would’ve been wiped out in seconds.

But its massive size proved cumbersome for dodging, allowing Wang Tao to precisely hit it every time with the Heat Energy Beam.

After a brief exchange, the post-Frenzy gorilla zombie was left with a sliver of HP.

Sizzle——

[-4293]

[0/100000]

The gorilla zombie’s blood bar was completely depleted.

Rumble——

Its massive body collapsed with a rumbling thud, crushing several passing zombies to death.

"Is it dead just like that?"

Wang Tao felt it was rather too easy, recalling how powerful this gorilla zombie was in the previous life, leaving a deep impression.

Yet now, within minutes of airborne combat, he had slain the gorilla zombie.

In this life, the gorilla zombie’s strength had increased significantly, but it remained no match for Wang Tao, who overwhelmed it.

If Wang Tao had not killed it, it might have ascended to Level Three soon, becoming much stronger... But alas, its encounter with Wang Tao doomed it as mere backdrop.

Having dealt with the gorilla zombie, Wang Tao promptly went over to collect the spoils of war, then checked the surroundings to ensure no Level 2 zombies were present before preparing to leave.

"Bang!"

But suddenly, a loud noise emerged not too far away.

"Huh? Gunshot?"

Wang Tao was a bit surprised, this area was demarcated by Wei Zhenguo as a forbidden zone, prohibiting Shuize Base personnel from approaching. Hence, this gunshot evidently wasn’t from them, but from other survivors.

"Unexpectedly, there are survivors... better go take a look!"

Wang Tao originally intended to find a safe place to inspect the gorilla zombie’s spoils, but changed his mind now, opting to first investigate the source of the gunshot.

Whoosh——

Wang Tao flew directly over the target location, observing below was the entrance to an underground parking lot, with roughly ten or twenty people inside, some of whom looked familiar...
