Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot - Chapter 350:
Chapter 350: Chapter 167: Fatal Acupoint_3
The third plan was to destroy the granary and blast the Blood-red Zombies out!
Although this plan was very risky, Wang Tao didn’t want to wait anymore.
“Little Jun, you go to Fish Bay Camp. Clean up all the zombies around, and then set up some simple defensive facilities…”
Wang Tao instructed Xu Xiaojun.
The noise from blowing up the granary would be huge, and it would definitely attract many zombies. Wang Tao had to leave himself an escape route.
The defensive capabilities of Fish Bay Camp were ordinary, but its location was relatively remote with fewer zombies around, and there was only one way into the camp. If anything dangerous arose, Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue could fend it off for a while.
“Yes!”
Xu Xiaojun immediately returned to Fish Bay Camp.
Meanwhile, Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue cleaned up any ordinary zombies around the granary.
Only after confirming there were no zombies around did Wang Tao take out the Self-Destruct Bomb.
The slightest noise could set off these bombs, so he had to make sure everything was quiet around him.
The days of the apocalypse were very quiet. As long as there were no zombies, these Self-Destruct Bombs were relatively stable.
Wang Tao cautiously placed the bombs inside the granary.
After setting all the dozen or so bombs, Wang Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
While placing these bombs, he had to be fully alert. If his hand trembled even slightly, it wouldn’t just be one or two bombs going off, but all twenty-something bombs exploding at once! Wang Tao wasn’t sure how powerful that would be, but he knew he definitely couldn’t withstand it.
Of course, Wang Tao had a contingency plan, which was to store the bombs in his Space Backpack right before they exploded but hadn’t detonated yet. This way, he could avoid an explosion.
But this required quick hands and also some luck. It wasn’t something to attempt unless absolutely necessary…
“Let’s move back a bit…”
Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue left the granary, looking towards the underground granary entrance, he took a deep breath.
Wang Tao hadn’t learned professional demolition. He was unclear about how many explosives were needed to bring down the granary or where the bombs should be placed… But he knew that with enough force, bricks would fly. As long as there were enough bombs and the force was powerful enough, it didn’t matter what it was, everything would be blasted away!
“Are we not placing any bombs at this entrance?”
Jiang Shixue asked softly with curiosity.
Because there were Self-Destruct Bombs throughout the rest of the granary, only the entrance from the underground granary to the outside was left untouched.
“If we also put bombs here, then after the explosion, we’d really bury the zombies inside. What we want is not to bury them, but to flush them out. So we have to leave an exit for them to escape through…”
Wang Tao explained.
“Oh~”
Jiang Shixue nodded her head, seemingly having learned something new.
After ensuring everything was set, Wang Tao took out the Alloy Recurve Bow from his Space Backpack.
He rarely used Bow and Arrows.
Usually, in close combat, he used axes, hammers, and other melee weapons; at mid-range, he used Throwing Knives or Flying Axes; as for long-range…
Wang Tao hadn’t engaged in long-range combat for a long time. It wasn’t he didn’t want to, but often, either his view was blocked by buildings or the combat was too sudden, leaving no chance for long-distance sniping.
Of course, just because Wang Tao used it rarely didn’t mean his skills were lacking. He had practiced Arrow Technique for quite a while now, and even without Precision Shooting, his accuracy was not a problem.
Wang Tao drew the bow and nocked an arrow, aiming it at one of the Self-Destruct Bombs.
Whoosh—
The arrow flew in a parabola, then landed precisely on a Self-Destruct Bomb.
Thump, thump…
The Self-Destruct Bomb immediately started to swell.
Boom!
A loud blast, the Self-Destruct Bomb exploded!
Then, the noise caused by this bomb set off the other bombs.
Boom—Boom—Boom—
In an instant, a series of explosions rang through the granary.
Wang Tao had already stuffed his ears with cotton ahead of time. Seeing that Jiang Shixue was still foolishly watching, he quickly covered her ears.
Boom—Boom—Boom—
The sound of so many bombs exploding at once was enormous, as if the entire town was boiling over. Dust filled the air around the granary, and Wang Tao watched clearly as the granary collapsed, then slowly sank into the ground!
And at this moment, from the hole that remained unexploded, suddenly a blood-red figure shot out.
Rush!
Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue had been ready. The moment they saw the zombie’s figure, they sprinted towards it.
“Wait! What’s happening?”
But suddenly, Wang Tao’s eyes widened.
For he saw that, the instant the zombie emerged, its body started to crack and smoke as if it was being burnt by fierce flames. It let out a painful scream!
The HP bar plummeted crazily! In just a few seconds, only a sliver of HP remained!
“Damn!”
Wang Tao knew sunlight was its weakness, but he hadn’t expected it to be this terrifying—it wasn’t just a weakness, it was like an Achilles’ heel! Instant death upon contact!
Without time to think, Wang Tao immediately swung his axe. A Shockwave was emitted, smashing into its head.
Spurt—
[-287]
[0/30000]
The Blood-red Zombie fell to the ground, then its entire body turned into ashes.
“Is it… over just like that?”
Stunned, Wang Tao walked over with Jiang Shixue.
At this time, the sounds of explosions attracted the attention of other zombies nearby, including a large group of Mad Demon Zombies!
“Heh heh…”
Wang Tao had no time to think, hastily going to collect the loot.
“Ah? No Crystal Core?”
Only then did Wang Tao realize, after the Blood-red Zombie died, it had not left a Crystal Core!
Although it was evaporated by the sun, Crystal Cores weren’t afraid of the sun. It might be that it truly didn’t have a Crystal Core…
However, even though there were no Crystal Cores, the three Loot Packs it dropped were still satisfying for Wang Tao.
Wang Tao threw out a few more Self-Destruct Bombs, the sound of the explosions diverted many zombies’ attention. Holding Jiang Shixue, Wang Tao instantly Rushed more than thirty meters, getting away from the battlefield.
“Run!”
The two of them sprinted towards Fish Bay Base.
