Thud!

[-1000 HP]

A series of eye-catching damage floated up, and all the zombies fell to the ground in an instant.

Three seconds later, Han Rui drove the car up to Wang Tao and opened the passenger door. Wang Tao rushed into the vehicle.

“Next supply drop location.”

“Okay!”

Han Rui, too, was an old hand at driving, her skills somewhat better than Wang Tao1 s. She swiftly drove away from the area with Wang Tao.

Wang Tao opened the walkie-talkie again and informed the other members at the base that he had taken the supplies from this drop. Before heading out, everyone had agreed to report on the public channel each time they collected a drop, to avoid others making a needless trip.

On the road, Han Rui glanced at Wang Tao from time to time; her expression was slightly excited.

Wang Tao’s descent from the sky and immediate massacre of those zombies was downright cool!

But Wang Tao appeared very calm, and it didn’t seem feigned. This left Han Rui feeling slightly discouraged; the gap between her and Wang Tao seemed to be growing ever larger…

Wang Tao indeed felt calm, even though the zombies’ HP had doubled. He could still kill them instantly, so there was nothing surprising.

Han Rui continued to drive while Wang Tao took out the inhibitors.

There were a total of five boxes of inhibitors, with twenty vials per box, meaning a hundred vials of inhibitor in all!

What a bountiful harvest!

“This is…”

Han Rui looked at the small vials with some curiosity.

“Inhibitors,”

Wang Tao glanced at her.

“Ah? These are inhibitors?There’s… so many!”

Han Rui was shocked.

Of course, she knew about inhibitors, but she had never seen them before, as the base wouldn’t just put them on display. Only those who accumulated a hundred thousand Contribution Points could redeem an inhibitor, but so far, no one had reached such a high number. So it wasn’t just her—many others in the base knew of inhibitors only by name and hadn’t seen them.

In her understanding, since an inhibitor required a hundred thousand Contribution Points to redeem, it must be incredibly valuable! There likely weren’t many in the entire base.

But there in Wang Tao’ s hands were five boxes, with twenty vials in each.

Wasn’t that a hundred vials? Converted into Contribution Points… that would be ten million Contribution Points!

However, if there were many inhibitors, the Contribution Points required should decrease, right? Moreover, for Wang Tao, who was already a committee member, having so many Contribution Points seemed somewhat unnecessary…

Han Rui sneaked a glance at Wang Tao; she was unsure what he intended to do with these inhibitors.

Wang Tao seemed to know what Han Rui was thinking and smiled.

“I’ll keep a portion for myself and put the rest in the base.” Since he was a part of the base and one of the highest-ranked individuals, it was only right to contribute to the base. He had no immediate use for so many inhibitors.

Han Rui moved her lips; she actually wanted an inhibitor too, as it was something that could save lives in a critical moment. But since Wang Tao had taken the risks to obtain them, she felt embarrassed to ask.

They encountered a few more zombies on the road, all of which were easily dealt with by Wang Tao. About half an hour later, the two spotted the second supply drop.

This one had landed in the middle of a big road, but the box had been opened. There were several zombies with their heads blown off nearby, and boxes that once contained inhibitors were scattered on the ground—all empty. Judging by their scattered arrangement, they led toward a red house with its door ajar. “Someone got here first… There probably were inhibitors inside, all gone now.” Wang Tao lowered his binoculars.

Throughout their journey, those from Shuize Base who claimed the drops had reported through the walkie-talkies. The drop in the street hadn’t been reported. This meant that those who took it weren’t from Shuize Base. There were other survivors!

Han Rui immediately drew her pistol and grew vigilant. Sometimes, survivors could be even more dangerous than zombies.

But it also pained her heart; if the quantity of inhibitors here was the same as in the drop Wang Tao had just picked up, then that would mean a hundred vials of inhibitors! To let others profit so easily, what a heartache!

Wang Tao was about to go check it out when he suddenly turned to Han Rui, “Use your Perception to check if there are zombies or survivors nearby. With Han Rui as a human radar, it was best to make use of her abilities.

“Hmm? There are people! Inside that red house!” Han Rui closed her eyes, then her face suddenly changed. “Five humans! Among them, two give me a very strong feeling, like they are Ability Users…

“Well, well! Looks like they’re fishing!”

Wang Tao frowned at the trajectory of the empty boxes from a distance.

He had originally wondered if the survivor who came across this drop had been sloppy, discarding the shock-proof boxes meant for the inhibitors and simply running off with the vials, caring not if they accidentally broke.

But the fact they were in the house explained it—they had created this scene on purpose, fishing for others!

If anyone followed the trail of the fallen boxes out of curiosity and entered the red house, they would meet two Ability Users and three survivors waiting for them!

Of course, it could also be a coincidence, like the other party was just resting inside the house. But in this post-apocalyptic world, Wang Tao didn’t mind assuming the worst in others!

Thinking of Cao Xin’s boss, Shao Yong, rumored to be a strong Ability User who was also building his power, Wang Tao’s mind raced. Shuize County wasn’t that big, and apart from Shuize Base, it seemed that only Shao Yong and his followers held any significant influence.
