Chapter 166: A Piece of Flapjack

Night falls.

Xu Xiaojun looked at Wang Tao.

"Brother Wang, I'll go with you, my injuries have healed!"

"No, you're too weak."

Wang Tao shook his head.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Xu Xiaojun was a little embarrassed.

In fact, it's not that Xu Xiaojun is too weak, the main thing is that he can't see at night and can't keep up with Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue. Otherwise, it's okay to let him carry a bag.

Wang Tao asked Xu Xiaojun to rest here, and he climbed to the top of the building with Jiang Shixue.

From evening to nightfall today, there was still no change near the granary.

Wang Tao felt that those blood-colored zombies should only appear when the night really came.

The cool breeze at night was very pleasant, and Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue waited quietly on the roof.

At one point, dark clouds obscured the few stars, and the night became darker.

Jiang Shixue pulled Wang Tao's clothes.

"There it is!"

Wang Tao followed the sound, and a red figure slowly appeared from the night. That familiar figure is the third-order zombie I've seen before!

The blood-colored zombie didn't notice Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue on the roof, it circled around the granary, as if searching for something.

Soon, the blood-colored zombie found the hole.

When it saw the entrance to the cave, it felt like it was a little excited, but it didn't go in, but went somewhere else.

It is indeed "walking", like a normal zombie, swaying outside. If you don't pay attention, you might really think it's a normal zombie.

"How does it feel, it's like fishing......"

Wang Tao complained a little.

If someone doesn't notice and alarms it, it will definitely burst out with incredible speed in an instant, knocking the target down!

Wang Tao and the two waited for a while, and saw that the blood-colored zombie was still wandering nearby. Other than that, the other blood-colored zombies did not appear.

"Let's go somewhere else first."

Wang Tao said to Jiang Shixue beside him.

"Good~"

Wang Tao came out tonight, not only to see if this third-order zombie was there, but also to find that kind of green pustule zombie.

After all, the defense of the pustule zombie at night is very low, and it has no attack ability, if it can be encountered, it will be a proper experience package for Wang Tao.

Although they may encounter third-order blood-colored zombies when attacking pus-filled zombies, as long as they are not besieged, Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue will definitely be able to run.

During the day today, Wang Tao had already tested his pair of combat boots, and he could only say that they were very strong!

Originally, his speed was not as good as Jiang Shixue's, but now after wearing these shoes, Wang Tao's speed is the same as Jiang Shixue's.

He doesn't even have 10,000 blood now, but Jiang Shixue has nearly 20,000 blood. It is enough to see the power of these shoes.

With this kind of life-saving equipment, although Wang Tao still can't compete with the third-order zombies, it is still not a big problem to escape.

The two cautiously searched around, but did not see the green pus-filled zombie. But I saw a second-order zombie.

"Second-Order Terrorist!"

Seeing the big man holding a giant axe, Wang Tao was suddenly a little excited.

He had seen a lot of first-order terrorists, but he had never seen a second-order terrorist.

Strictly speaking, except for the orangutan zombies, Wang Tao doesn't seem to have seen other zombies promoted from the first order to the second order.

Like a terrorist, a charger, a self-destructor or something like that, Wang Tao has never seen a second-order.

The second-order zombies that Wang Tao saw seemed to be second-order, such as toad zombies, pustule zombies, etc.

Wang Tao was a little worried, in case these zombies couldn't advance to the second order, then what would happen to his crystal nucleus?

After all, his shock wave and accurate shooting were originally the abilities of first-order zombies.

Fortunately, now I see a second-order terrorist, which can be regarded as relieving Wang Tao. It should be that there are relatively few second-order zombies for the time being, and he just hasn't encountered them.

Wang Tao was ready to hunt down this second-order terrorist, but for the sake of safety, he and Jiang Shixue worked together to deal with the other ordinary zombies around.

After all, there are third-order zombies outside now, and if other zombies cause movement, it will be very troublesome to attract third-order zombies.

Wang Tao looked at this second-order terrorist.

[HP: 10000/10000]

[Blue Amount: 2000/2000]

[Rank: 2nd Order: Elite]

The second-order tyrant is much larger than the first-order one, with an estimated height of two meters, five or six meters, with a naked upper body and knotted muscles. However, what he was holding in his hand was not a reinforced concrete sledgehammer, nor a street lamp, but a metallic-colored two-handed giant axe that looked a little plain and shabby, which was full of oppression!

But its attributes are average, only 10,000 blood, 2,000 blue.

Of course, this is generally relative to Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue, if it is for Xu Xiaojun's ordinary ability of about 2000 blood, this zombie is still very terrifying.

Wang Tao rushed towards the terrorists.

He was now very fast, only to be spotted when he was close behind the terrorist.

The terrorist roared, raised the giant axe with both hands, and was about to attack Wang Tao.

"It's late!"

Wang Tao directly slashed at the zombie's head with an axe.

Bang!

【-2251】

【7749/10000】

The defense of the terrorists was still relatively high, and Wang Tao only cut off 2,000 blood with an axe.

Wang Tao retreated after chopping, and when the giant axe of the terrorist was about to fall, a cloud of white slime suddenly appeared, instantly sticking the terrorist. The giant axe in the terrorist's hand failed to land.

The terrorist's attack was too loud, and Wang Tao was afraid of attracting third-order zombies, so he used a slime grenade.

The slime grenade only sticks to the Terrorist for a few seconds, but that's more than enough. Jiang Shixue made a move, and Wang Tao mended the knife. When the slime effect wore off, the Terrorist fell to the ground with a bang.

Wang Tao quickly put away the loot, and then glanced at his blood bar.

【9950/9950】

When Wang Tao was looking for traces of third-order zombies today, he encountered several first-order elite zombies, and after killing them, his blood volume increased somewhat.

This terrorist gave him a maximum of 260 HP, and he was almost 10,000 HP!

Wang Tao looked at the loot again.

A crystal nucleus, a package.

【Second Order Crystal Nucleus: Shockwave】

[Quality: Excellent (60%)]

[Purity: 45% (Side effect: Eye sensitivity to light)]

Finally, there is a second-order shockwave crystal nucleus, but unfortunately the purity of the second-order crystal nucleus is 5% lower than that of the first order, and there are still 10% impurities after the synthesis of the two crystal nuclei, and there are side effects if there are impurities. Impurities don't matter, but Wang Tao definitely can't ask for this side effect.

I can only continue to save, and I can save enough three shockwave crystal nuclei to synthesize.

Wang Tao looked at the terrorist's package, and the contents of the package surprised him a little.

[Improved Worn Axe Crafting Recipe*1]

[Improved Worn Axe Crafting Blueprint: Can make a two-handed Greataxe, required materials: Two-handed Axe*1 (the quality of the core material will affect the quality of the final molding), Second-Order Crystal Nucleus*1, Iron Block*10, Steel Wire*10, Gears*10, Blade*10, Nail*10, Screw*10]

[Improved Worn-out Greataxe: Attribute Unknown]

It turned out to be a weapon manufacturing blueprint!

For so long, Wang Tao has seen a weapon manufacturing drawing, which is the previous precision hand crossbow manufacturing drawing. Now this drawing is the second one he's ever seen.

However, there are a lot of materials needed to make drawings for this giant axe weapon, and it actually requires a second-order zombie crystal nucleus! The things he used to make with the blueprints, except for potions and grenade bombs, only the food compressor needed crystal nuclei.

And this drawing also intimately reminds that the quality of the core material will affect the finished product. And this core material is the two-handed axe.

Wang Tao didn't have a two-handed axe in his hand - no, it seems to be!

He looked at the corpse of the terrorist, and a huge axe had fallen beside it, and he had almost forgotten about it!

【Worn Axe*1】

This axe is also the same as other weapons dropped by zombies, only showing the name, not the specific stats.

Wang Tao has a lot of materials on his body, crystal nuclei also have it, and now the core material axe is also available, Wang Tao looked at the manufacturing drawing again, and a "can be made" prompt appeared on it.

Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue took a turn in the vicinity, and they didn't find any other second-order zombies, not even first-order elite zombies.

Wang Tao found a relatively closed room, and the two walked in together.

There were only a few ordinary zombies in the house, which were easily solved by Wang Tao.

Then Wang Tao took out the giant axe and other materials and prepared to start manufacturing.

As for the zombie crystal nucleus, Wang Tao chose an ordinary quality weak poisonous mist crystal nucleus.

There were quite a few second-order crystal nuclei in his hand, and the most of them were the weak poisonous mist crystal nuclei, with a total of 14 of them.

These were all obtained by the Toad Zombie before, when he attacked the Mizusawa Base with more than a dozen second-order weak poisonous mist zombies.

When Wang Tao and Han Rui separated, they left a lot of first-order crystal nuclei to them, but Wang Tao took the second-order crystal nuclei himself. These weak poisonous fog crystal nuclei are also in Wang Tao's hands.

After the materials were ready, Wang Tao's mind moved, and a burst of colorful light flashed.

All materials disappear, and a two-handed axe resembling the one dropped by the Terrorist.

The axe is two meters long, has a relatively simple appearance, and even has several gaps, which really corresponds to the word "shabby" in its name.

[Improved Worn Greataxe]

【2nd Order (Excellent)】

[Attack +30, Durability +30, Attack Speed -(5%~50%)]

The attributes of this axe are somewhat beyond Wang Tao's expectations, it actually has a level!

The weapons that Wang Tao used to make with drawings did not have a grade.

Could it be that a second-order crystal nucleus was added to the crafting process of this weapon?

Wang Tao thinks it should be this reason.

However, he added a second-order ordinary quality crystal nucleus, but this weapon is an excellent quality, and there is no hint on the manufacturing map that the crystal nucleus quality is related to the finished weapon...... Wang Tao guessed that the quality of the crystal nucleus should have nothing to do with the finished weapon, and it should be all up to luck.

The attack power of this giant axe has increased by 30 points, and Wang Tao has no attack power on his attribute panel, so he is not sure what level this 30 points is.

But the precise hand crossbow that Wang Tao made before had an attack power of +10, and that hand crossbow could no longer keep up with his strength, so he gave the hand crossbow to Ding Yuqin.

This giant axe has an attack power of 30, so it should be stronger than the previous precision crossbow, right?

The second attribute is +30 durability, Wang Tao knows that this is very good.

Because Wang Tao has only used up one piece of equipment so far. It's the previous security suit, which was destroyed when fighting and fleeing for your life with the Black Mist Monster. And the durability of that security suit is +1...... You can imagine how durable this 30 durability attribute is.

As for the final attack speed reduction, the reason why there is a floating range, Wang Tao guessed that it should be different from person to person. People with more strength will lose less attack speed, people with less strength will lose more attack speed, and people with less strength may not be able to hold it.

Wang Tao tried it, and the axe was very heavy. The previous reinforced concrete sledgehammers and street lamps could not be compared.

He can swing it, but it's a bit difficult to use it for a long time.

"What a big axe!"

Jiang Shixue said beside her.

"Xiaoxue to try?"

Wang Tao suddenly thought that there was a person with a lot of strength beside him.

"Good~"

Jiang Shixue took it, learned Wang Tao's movements, and waved it a few times. I feel that she is more relaxed than Wang Tao.

However, Jiang Shixue frowned.

"This axe, it affects my speed, I don't like it."

Jiang Shixue doesn't have a special speed ability, but her speed is not slow, and she relies on her speed to attack a lot of the time. If she used this axe, it might be weakened.

"Well, I'll find you better weapons later."

Wang Tao rubbed Jiang Shixue's hair.

The axe is also very action-friendly for him, but he has space for a backpack to put in when he doesn't need it and take it out when he's using it. So there's nothing wrong with portability.

Of course, when it comes to real combat, this weapon is indeed too heavy, which affects his performance a little, and it is best to use it as a special move.

Wang Tao put away his weapon and walked around the neighborhood with Jiang Shixue, trying to find a zombie to try out a new weapon.

It's a pity that they were unlucky, and the two of them had been wandering outside until the second half of the night, not to mention the second-order zombies, even the first-order elite zombies couldn't be touched.

Wang Tao was a little helpless.

"Forget it, let's go back and see if that third-order zombie has returned to the nest."

"Good~"

Before the two of them could reach the vicinity of the granary, they suddenly saw a fire in the distance.

In the darkness of the night, the light of the fire was very obvious.

"Over there...... Fish Bay Camp? Something happened to them? ”

Wang Tao raised his eyebrows, that was the direction of the Yuwan camp.

However, Wang Tao doesn't like to meddle in things, especially the whole Yuwan camp makes him feel good, there are only two people, one is Lu Boss is dead, and the other Xu Xiaojun is by his side......

When I came to the granary again, I could see that the blood-colored zombie was still hanging around.

Wang Tao didn't dare to go any further, after all, he and Jiang Shixue together couldn't defeat this third-order zombie.

The two returned to the small building where they had been before.

"Huh? What about Xu Xiaojun? ”

Wang Tao found that Xu Xiaojun was missing.

A line of words was carved crookedly on the wall.

"Brother Wang, something happened in the camp, I'll go back."

Wang Tao was speechless.

If you are a normal person, you should have cut ties with them when you were abandoned by the camp.

As a result, Xu Xiaojun went back.

Go back, go back, it's not impossible to endure it. But after Xu Xiaojun went back, he was humiliated and slandered, and he didn't do it on the spot, even if he was a bodhisattva. If it is replaced by Wang Tao, I promise to let those people know why the flowers are so red.

As a result, in the middle of the night, seeing that something had happened in the camp, Xu Xiaojun ran over again...... Could it be that he is a licking dog, thinking that he was not hurt deep enough?

Wang Tao really couldn't understand it.

But it's still the same sentence, let go of the plot of helping others and respect the fate of others. Xu Xiaojun really wanted to die, and Wang Tao couldn't stop him.

The two continued to monitor the granary until dawn.

Wang Tao clearly saw that before dawn, the third-order blood-colored zombie drilled back from the hole!

"Good!"

A smile appeared on Wang Tao's face. Knowing the lair of this third-order zombie, he is not in a hurry, he tries slowly, there is always a way to force the zombie out!

He wanted to see how much strength this third-order zombie would weaken if it came out during the day! If the strength is cut too much, then he and Jiang Shixue will not be polite!

In the morning, Wang Tao made up for a while.

Although after the strength has been improved, the requirements for sleep are not so high, and occasionally staying up late has no effect at all. But Wang Tao's next target is a third-order zombie, so he must be cautious.

At noon, Jiang Shixue woke up Wang Tao.

"The big fat man is here."

Looking at Xu Xiaojun, who was dirty and injured again, Wang Tao was a little funny.

"You can't be kicked out again, right?"

Xu Xiaojun's expression was a little embarrassed and a little sad.

"Everyone...... They're all dead......"

"Huh? All dead? What's going on? ”

Wang Tao's face became serious.

"Last night, they held an inauguration ceremony to celebrate the ascension of the new boss...... As a result, the two terrifying zombies in the underground granary were attracted! The obstacles in the camp couldn't stop the two zombies at all, and no one in the camp could resist, and then there was a massacre......"

"When I passed, basically everyone died, only Li Yi jumped into the water and escaped for the time being, but he was eaten by the fish in the lake, and his upper body was left...... These are all things that Li Yi told me before he died......"

After listening to Xu Xiaojun's words, Wang Tao was a little embarrassed.

I really can't hide from the first day of junior high school, but I can't hide from fifteen!

Those people encountered a third-order blood-colored zombie before, and abandoned Xu Xiaojun to pick up a life. As a result, he has now returned all the principal and interest.

After sighing, Wang Tao suddenly looked at Xu Xiaojun and said:

"I'm curious, why did you go back to save them when they all abandoned you?"

Could it be that this Xu Xiaojun is really a fool, and he can't tell the difference between good and bad?

Xu Xiaojun looked at Wang Tao, then lowered his head and said:

β€œβ€¦β€¦ When the virus broke out, my family sacrificed all their lives to protect me, and I narrowly escaped, but I had no food at the time, so I was dying of hunger. Uncle Lu, the father of Boss Lu, passed by, and he gave me a pancake......"

"After meeting Uncle Lu unexpectedly again, after knowing that Uncle Lu's son had a survivor camp, I followed Uncle Lu to the Yuwan camp. Later, Uncle Lu was infected, and before he died, he asked me to help Boss Lu manage the Yuwan camp, and I agreed......"

"I don't know how to manage the camp, I can only do it the way I would - I want to gain their favor, I try to protect them, I give them most of the supplies I loot...... I want to be worthy of the pancake that Uncle Lu gave. But...... I really, tried my best. ”
