“Bastards!”
“Slut!”
nj f****** ”
Upon seeing the video, Wu Fei’s mouth suddenly turned into a Gatling gun.
If words could kill, Wu Fei would have probably mowed down the whole world in these short minutes, without waiting for the apocalypse to arrive.
“You know why she wanted to kill you? Because you saw the evidence of them committing murder—of course, you actually didn’t see it, but they thought you did.”
With the collapse of the world order, it was only a matter of time before people started harming others for their own benefit. Wang Tao had been prepared for that.
The reason the two of them were afraid of their murderous acts being discovered was obviously because of Han Rui, the policewoman.
Han Rui was obviously someone with a strong sense of justice, and if she discovered that they had killed a teammate, that would be problematic.
Especially for Ou Yingying; she was even more afraid. After all, she and Han Rui had no familial ties… she couldn’t be sure that Han Rui wouldn’t kill her.
So, to avoid trouble, she went ahead and killed even Wu Fei.
One has to admit, this woman was very decisive.
Regardless of her character, just on the basis of such ruthlessness, she would probably live a long time in this apocalyptic environment.
“No wonder, when I saw Han Rui and her husband before, this bitch kept sneaking glances at Sun Weiguang…”
Wu Fei painfully grabbed his hair.
Before, he thought Ou Yingying was just stealing extra looks at a handsome guy, just as he wanted to take more glances at officer Han Rui out of plain admiration, for he had no hidden intentions since they were a married couple.
But who knew, Ou Yingying had already set her sights on him! And to think he had even argued with Sun Weiguang because of her… turns out he was the clown!
“As for their desire to kill that college student Li Cheng… I guess it’s because Li Cheng kept showing kindness to officer Han Rui on the road, which annoyed Sun Weiguang. And Sun Weiguang wanted someone to attract the zombies, so he chose him…”
After understanding all of this, the rage shooting from Wu Fei’s sole eye was almost tangible.
“This pair of dogs, I’ll make sure they don’t die a good death!”
“Alright, I don’t know if others will die, but if you keep getting this worked up, you might just die first.”
Wang Tao pointed at the wound on Wu Fei’s body that was bleeding a bit from his excessive agitation.
Wang Tao glanced at his watch again.
“Got any questions? You have ten minutes.”
“You, that thing—”
Wu Fei pointed at the empty Inhibitor bottle on the ground.
“This is something that the Government’s organization has had a large number of experts working on…”
Wang Tao briefly introduced the Inhibitor.
“So how can I get the Inhibitor?”
Wu Fei hadn’t forgotten that Wang Tao told him he might need the Inhibitor in the future.
“Currently, I only know that there are Inhibitors in the supplies drop, so you need to pay attention to the supplies drop.”
“Supplies drop!”
Wu Fei’s eyes lit up; he had obviously seen the previous airplane supplies drop.
“Then, Big Brother, are you at the Survivor Base? Can you take me there? I’ll repay you!”
Wu Fei looked at Wang Tao with a longing gaze.
Wang Tao shook his head.
“I’m not at the Survivor Base, I’m in my own home.”
Upon hearing this, Wu Fei’s face immediately fell into disappointment.
He was at his own home, which obviously meant he wouldn’t take a stranger like himself.
“I think you’re capable of getting to the Survivor Base on your own,”
Wang Tao said, looking at the wounds on Wu Fei’s body.
Wang Tao didn’t know if it was the side effects of using the Inhibitor or the aftereffects of Wu Fei’s near infection and mutation, but he felt his body had become much stiffer, as if on the verge of turning into a zombie at any moment… although his physique seemed somewhat stronger.
Wang Tao estimated that once he had recovered, even if his HP had dropped by 20, his strength should still be greater than that of an Ordinary person.
As long as he could handle zombies one-on-one and be extra cautious on the road, there was a decent chance he could make it to the Survivor Base, especially since it wasn’t too far away. Moreover, killing zombies could increase his HP cap, the more he killed, the stronger he became…
Wang Tao left behind for Wu Fei the medical kit he had used, along with some food, then got into the vehicle under Wu Fei’s watchful gaze.
“…This big brother actually drove out here?!”
Wu Fei was dumbfounded.
Only a real badass would dare to drive in an apocalyptic city!
He suddenly regretted it, wishing he had shamelessly asked to follow this “big brother”… He didn’t even know this man’s name or what he looked like…
Wang Tao drove the pickup to the gate where four zombies were present.
Since he had saved Wu Fei’s life, he might as well extend his goodwill to the end and deal with these four zombies as well.
In a few minutes, all the zombies were dead beneath his Horned Hammer.
[Acquired: purified water (small) *4]
Wang Tao discovered that zombies killed at the water plant seemed to always drop purified water! Maybe in the future, if he was short on water, he could come here to stock up?
Lost in thought, Wang Tao locked the water plant gate.
Now Wu Fei inside the water plant was essentially safe.
Boom—
The pickup’s engine let out a gentle roar as it left the water plant.
From the balcony, Wu Fei watched the departing vehicle, murmuring to himself:
“Big brother, may we meet again if fate allows. If I’m still alive, I, Wu Fei, will definitely repay you!”
In the pickup, after driving out of the water plant’s range, Wang Tao immediately injected himself in the arm with the “Stealth Potion (Medium)1‘. The familiar sensation returned.
His body got colder, his breathing slowed, and his limbs felt heavier.
“Phew—this feeling is really unpleasant!”
Using the Stealth Potion itself wasn’t too uncomfortable; what was uncomfortable was the feeling of losing strength—his strength would diminish slightly after the injection.
Even though the reduction wasn’t much, for Wang Tao, who was accustomed to strength, it was still somewhat uncomfortable. In this post-apocalyptic world, no strength meant no sense of security.
After the Stealth Potion took effect, Wang Tao’s vehicle speed slowed down, and some zombies noticed the vehicle but didn’t go berserk, only approaching curiously. By the time they got closer, the vehicle had already departed…
This time, Wang Tao didn’t take the outer ring road; there was a monster with 10,000 HP in the forest beside the road, and he didn’t dare to take that route. The Stealth Potion lasted an hour; even if he drove slowly, he could make it back.
However, before going back, Wang Tao had one more thing to do: get some gasoline.
As he passed a small parking lot and saw the intact vehicles, an idea struck Wang Tao.
There were no zombies here; it was an excellent opportunity to scavenge for gasoline.
He had previously taken three fuel barrels from a small restaurant, two of which contained fuel; the empty one would be just right for collecting gasoline. Additionally, he had drunk a barrel of purified water (small) in the past few days, and the leftover empty barrel could also be filled with gasoline.
With tools in hand, he got out of the vehicle, and after some time, Wang Tao filled the 20L fuel barrel and the 5L water barrel with gasoline.
“Haha, now I can make Molotov cocktails! Suddenly, I’m looking forward to encountering a Big Hammer Zombie again…”
Happy Community.
“Thud, thud, thud—You damn whore, open the door, quick!”
Hearing the knocking outside the bedroom, Ding Yuqin, pale and haggard, hugged her knees, curled up in a corner of the room, her eyes brimming with despair.
“Wang Tao, you really left me behind… Where are you… I hate you… sob sob….”
