Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 1684 - 710 "Old Friend
Chapter 1684: Chapter 710 "Old Friend
Wang Tao came to the door of room 202 and knocked.
"Who is it?"
A low male voice came from inside after a moment.
"I’m from 501 upstairs. I’ve cleared the zombies in the building, so it’s temporarily safe. If you lack food, you can search other rooms, but try not to touch the zombie blood. Also, don’t open the unit door. Currently, there are only four of us alive in the whole building: you, me, 302, and 502. If you need anything, you can come to 501 to find me..."
Wang Tao briefly explained and then went upstairs without waiting for a response.
Inside room 202 was the balding uncle, the locksmith. In the previous life, he taught Wang Tao the locksmith skills, which provided Wang Tao great convenience in the early days of the apocalypse. Unfortunately, he was eventually killed by that spectacles man. Wang Tao always felt regret. Now, living again, with his ability, Wang Tao naturally wanted to help.
The supplies Wang Tao scavenged weren’t very clean; he only took what was convenient to eat and left some rice and flour in the house. After all, there were still a few survivors in the building, so he left a little for them.
After Wang Tao left, the door to 202 opened a crack, and the balding uncle’s eyes showed some doubt. He had seen Wang Tao from 501, but just seen him. He didn’t even know Wang Tao’s name.
Unexpectedly, the other was so powerful, he could actually kill zombies! And kindly reminded him too.
But he didn’t plan to go out; he saw a lot of news online today about survivors who specifically harm their own kind. Given the current situation, it’s always right to be cautious. Anyway, he still had a bit of food at home, enough to last a few more days.
...
After Wang Tao went upstairs, he came directly to the door of room 502.
Knock, knock, knock—
"Sister-in-law, it’s me. Open the door."
There was no movement inside, as if no one was there.
But Wang Tao could clearly hear Ding Yuqin’s nervous breathing behind the door, so he used his spiritual power to probe and happened to see Ding Yuqin through the wall.
She was wearing silk pajamas, tightly holding a pair of scissors and staring tremblingly at the door.
In this life, the two were currently just ordinary neighbors; with the apocalypse descending, being on guard was normal. Plus, seeing him kill a zombie just now probably scared her. Given Wang Tao’s burly frame, standing there, even men would be intimidated, let alone a woman.
Ding Yuqin felt Wang Tao hadn’t left from outside the door, so she had to speak up.
"Ahem, I was, I was sleeping, it’s not convenient..."
She found a lame excuse not to let Wang Tao in.
"Alright then, but Brother Zhao messaged me to take care of you. If you have any issues, you can find me. The zombies in the building are all dead, so it’s safe for now, but you’d better not wander around; it could be troublesome if you get infected with the zombie virus..."
Wang Tao gave a reminder outside the door, then went downstairs.
There was still plenty of time today; he planned to go out to see if he could find elite zombies to level up.
The zombies he just killed were all ordinary level, and the crystal cores that dropped were all [HP]. Just enough to gather four, Wang Tao synthesized them before going out. After synthesizing into two core crystals with no side effects, he fused them into his body, bringing his HP up to [130/130].
Then Wang Tao opened the unit door.
"Roar—"
Outside, from the blind spot of his vision, suddenly appeared two zombies. They attacked Wang Tao simultaneously from left and right!
If it were ordinary people, they wouldn’t have been able to fend this off, but Wang Tao used just one punch and one kick to explode the heads of the two zombies.
[-500]
[-500]
Thud—
The two zombies fell heavily to the ground, and two crystal cores and two white light clusters appeared.
As expected, the crystal cores were still [HP], while the two white light clusters were materials.
[Obtained: Iron Block x1]
[Obtained: Battery x1]
Wang Tao casually synthesized these two crystals and then fused them, bringing his HP up to [140/140].
"Doesn’t feel like much improvement..."
Previously, gaining maximum HP would also make him feel physically stronger, but not now. However, it might be due to the small enhancement; Wang Tao’s constitution now far exceeded that of the previous life, so if the enhancement was minor, he might not notice it.
"Roar—"
It has to be said, the hearing of zombies in this life is really good, and their response is quick. The other zombies in the community courtyard also rushed over upon hearing the noise.
Facing these dozens of zombies, Wang Tao didn’t do anything; he just waited until the zombies rushed in front of him and then breathed out towards them.
Whoosh—
Crack—
Suddenly, a frost appeared on these zombies’ bodies, and their running speed drastically decreased, almost coming to a halt. At the same time, damage numbers appeared above their heads, though the damage was not high, only around one or two hundred.
"The effect of Frozen Breath is not bad!"
Seeing these temporarily frozen zombies, Wang Tao nodded in satisfaction.
Although the damage from [Frozen Breath] wasn’t high for the time being, the control effect was very strong, and it was group control. These dozens of zombies were quickly frozen, unable to break free for the time being.
Then Wang Tao used [Heat Energy Beam], and with a sweep, all the zombies were decapitated.
Crash—
A pile of white light clusters and crystal cores burst out.
"Phew~"
Wang Tao took a breath.
Using talent abilities consumes one’s physical strength. Continuously using two different talents, especially such a large-scale, sustained attacking ability, slightly tired Wang Tao. After all, he was only at zero-level.
