Chapter 330: Chapter 161: Four Level 2 Zombies_1
“`
Even among zombies of the same level, their strength can vary.
Under ordinary circumstances, the more HP and mana they have, the stronger they are. At the same time, Ordinary Zombies are weaker than Elite Zombies, and Elite Zombies are weaker than Zombie Lords.
With Wang Tao’s current strength, dealing with a Level 2, Zombie Lord with a lot of HP could be somewhat strenuous, but handling a Level 2, Elite Zombie would be much simpler.
Although the combined HP of these three Level 2, Elite Zombies was 30,000, Wang Tao felt the problem was not significant.
“Why do I feel like those three zombies seem really formidable…”
Eldest Lu’s Hidden Ability “Danger Perception” kicked in, as he murmured doubtfully to himself.
Seeing this, Wang Tao spoke up directly:
“All three are Level 2 Zombies.”
“All of them are Level 2 Zombies?!”
Upon hearing this, everyone instantly gasped in shock.
They had previously guessed that the Zombie in the granary was probably a Level 2 Zombie, which is why so many of them had come.
But what they had mentally prepared for was one Level 2 Zombie! Let alone three—they felt that even two Level 2 Zombies would be more than they could handle!
Even facing a single Level 2 Zombie, they would likely suffer casualties. However, because there were many of them, everyone thought the losses wouldn’t be theirs to bear, which gave them the courage to come out together…
“What now? Scared?”
Wang Tao asked while looking at Eldest Lu with a smile.
Eldest Lu’s eyes brightened when he saw Wang Tao’s seemingly relaxed demeanor.
He approached Wang Tao and whispered:
“Mr. Wang, have you ever killed a Level 2 Zombie before?”
Eldest Lu had previously addressed Wang Tao as “you,” but now he had switched to “you” with respect.
“I have.”
Wang Tao nodded.
“Then do you think we can handle these three Level 2 Zombies?”
Eldest Lu asked again.
“You can’t, but I can.”
Wang Tao was blunt.
“Hiss—”
Eldest Lu had already tried to overestimate Wang Tao, but he found he had still underestimated him!
Wang Tao was even stronger than he imagined! He had actually killed a Level 2 Zombie before! And he was so confident in saying he could take down these three zombies!
“Mr. Wang, are you sure? It’s not that I don’t believe you, but as you yourself said, these are three Level 2 Zombies…”
Eldest Lu quickly asked again.
“It’s not a problem.”
Wang Tao nodded once more.
“Great! Then we’ll leave everything to Mr. Wang! What do you need us to do? We’ll follow your orders!”
Eldest Lu sensed a strong feeling of danger emanating from these three zombies, but that feeling weakened whenever he moved closer to Wang Tao!
Eldest Lu had great faith in his sixth sense and believed that Wang Tao wasn’t bluffing. He truly could handle these three Level 2 Zombies!
Considering Wang Tao’s request for a map, it seemed likely that he wouldn’t stay at their camp, so Eldest Lu needed to seize this opportunity. If Wang Tao were to leave, then they would have no one to deal with these three Level 2 Zombies!
After all, their county’s granary was right behind these three zombies!
“Alright, you guys help me to distract two of the Level 2 Zombies. I’ll go deal with the other one first.”
“…Okay!”
Eldest Lu clenched his teeth and agreed.
Even though facing two Level 2 Zombies was very dangerous, there might be no other opportunity like this!
Of the three zombies, two were together, while the other one was a little further away.
Eldest Lu immediately gave the order for everyone to get into position, ready to attack the two Level 2 Zombies that were together.
Wang Tao, along with Jiang Shixue, approached the other Level 2 Zombie.
The bodies of these three Level 2 Zombies were slightly larger than those of Ordinary Zombies, and they all seemed to be a bit overweight, although it was unclear whether they were fat to begin with or if it was a mutation after becoming zombies.
Wang Tao didn’t let Jiang Shixue make a move; he walked out himself, holding a Firefighter Axe.
“Heh heh…”
No sooner had Wang Tao appeared, and without even stepping out, he immediately caught the attention of the zombie, which twisted its body and hurriedly walked towards him.
“Perception is quite sharp… but the speed seems slow…”
Just as Wang Tao internally commented on its slow speed, he saw the zombie suddenly open its mouth.
Pfft—
A mass of black substance was spat out from its mouth.
Wang Tao was still some distance away and dodged it instantly. He looked back to see that the substance the zombie had spat out was a mass of black granules that immediately began sizzling upon hitting the grass on the ground.
“A corrosive ranged attack?”
Wang Tao frowned and looked at Eldest Lu, who hadn’t mentioned the zombie having a ranged attack.
Eldest Lu had already taken people to draw the attention of the other two Level 2 Zombies. They had also been spat upon by the zombies just now.
Unfortunately, their luck was not very good, as one of them got hit. His entire left leg was stained with the black granules and began to corrode rapidly; his teammates quickly tore a piece of cloth from their clothing and stuffed it in his mouth, preventing him from crying out in pain. If they accidentally attracted the Mad Demon Zombies, it would spell even more trouble.
Feeling Wang Tao’s gaze, Eldest Lu shook his head repeatedly.
“These zombies didn’t have the ability for ranged attacks before, they were just incredibly strong!”
Seeing this, Wang Tao didn’t say much.
There was probably no need for Eldest Lu to deceive him, as it would bring Eldest Lu no advantage.
So this either meant that Eldest Lu was lucky before and the zombies didn’t use this ability, or that the zombies evolved a new capability after the heavy rain. Wang Tao felt it was most likely the latter.
