Chapter 338: Chapter 163: Two Level 3 Zombies_3
“Okay~”
After some effort, Wang Tao finally cleared the debris in Zone 6 and saw the person inside.
“Xu Xiaojun?”
Wang Tao was somewhat surprised; the person inside was Xu Xiaojun!
However, Xu Xiaojun was covered in wounds, barely alive and had fallen into unconsciousness.
He had just over a hundred HP, on the brink of death.
“Thud, thud, thud—”
Suddenly, Wang Tao heard noises, and he and Jiang Shixue quickly looked toward the source. The sound was coming from the pile of debris behind Xu Xiaojun!
“It’s the zombies from before!”
Jiang Shixue suddenly said.
“The zombies from before?” Wang Tao checked again and then realized, “This is an entrance, leading to the outside… I see!”
Wang Tao seemed to understand the reason—
He had just encountered those two blood-red zombies outside, which must have come from this granary; this was their lair!
A door blocked the way between the ground and the underground, so the zombies couldn’t get up, and they had been using the hole behind Xu Xiaojun to come and go.
But for some reason, Xu Xiaojun had blocked this hole, causing the two zombies to be unable to get back in after going out, so they kept slamming against it…
“Let’s wake him up first to see what’s going on!”
Wang Tao immediately took out a medical kit to restore HP to Xu Xiaojun. Then he helped him treat the wounds superficially.
Xu Xiaojun had steel armor on, which was tightly wrapped around him, so he was not infected.
About ten minutes later, Xu Xiaojun slowly woke up.
Then, his body shook as he tried to attack Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue!
“Are you infected?”
Wang Tao easily held down Xu Xiaojun’s hand, puzzled.
Xu Xiaojun had a green HP bar and showed no symptoms of infection, so why was he suddenly attacking him?
Upon hearing Wang Tao’s words, Xu Xiaojun froze.
“Brother Wang?”
“It’s me. Why are you attacking me?”
Wang Tao asked, frowning.
“I—I didn’t know it was you… but your eyes…”
Xu Xiaojun was confused, but still responded immediately.
It was pitch black in the granary, and, having just woken up groggy, he saw a pair of green eyes and a pair of red eyes staring at him!
Who wouldn’t panic?
For a moment, Xu Xiaojun thought he was going to die…
“Oh, I almost forgot…”
Wang Tao then remembered the granary had no light, and both he and Jiang Shixue could see in the dark, so they had overlooked this fact. Moreover, both of their eyes glowed, which frightened Xu Xiaojun.
Wang Tao took out a flashlight and illuminated the surroundings.
Xu Xiaojun instinctively squinted, and after adjusting to the light, he clearly saw that it was indeed Wang Tao in front of him, only Wang Tao’s eyes were emitting a faint green light, and beside him was his sister, Jiang Shixue, whose eyes emitted a red light!
These siblings were so scary!
“What happened to you? Where are the others?”
Wang Tao didn’t explain any further and instead asked directly.
“I…”
Xu Xiaojun looked around and then suddenly his shoulders slumped, an air of defeat about him, and his face showed a hint of bewilderment.
Wang Tao didn’t say anything, just quietly watched him.
Although Xu Xiaojun didn’t say anything, Wang Tao felt it might have something to do with the people from Fish Bay Camp.
“I… they left, and I was left behind…”
Xu Xiaojun’s face showed a trace of pain, his speech becoming much smoother.
“It’s okay, take your time.”
Wang Tao didn’t mind the filth and sat down beside him; Jiang Shixue sat down next to Wang Tao. Both of them looked at Xu Xiaojun.
Feeling the gaze of a pair of green eyes and a pair of red eyes, Xu Xiaojun was still somewhat overwhelmed. He organized his thoughts and then began to explain slowly:
“Today, after Brother Wang left…”
In the morning, after Wang Tao had dealt with the three Level 2 zombies, he also spotted the green pus-filled zombie and so he and Jiang Shixue chased after it.
Only some ordinary zombies remained around the granary, which the group quickly dispatched. Then they naturally started to move the grain from the granary.
However, there was less grain inside the granary than they had expected, and after moving some of it, they discovered there was an underground warehouse.
The door to the underground warehouse was locked, but it was quickly pried open by the group.
It was very dark below, divided into different areas, and they couldn’t see everything with flashlights. But they could see there was grain inside.
Everyone waited at the entrance for a while, even deliberately making some noise, but the underground granary was quiet, with no sounds or anything coming out.
This made everyone let down their guard.
So, Eldest Lu sent people down to bring up the grain. Eldest Lu, Xu Xiaojun, and the other Ability Users didn’t go down because they had to keep watch outside, to prevent zombies from approaching.
Unexpectedly, all those who went inside went silent…
Eldest Lu rushed to check carefully, but his precognitive abilities didn’t sense anything.
Eldest Lu trusted his Perception deeply, and since he sensed nothing, it meant there was no danger, or the danger was minimal.
So, Eldest Lu had everyone go down to move the grain. He thought that even if there was danger, they could handle it!
After all, there was so much grain; it couldn’t go to waste!
Xu Xiaojun naturally went down too.
However, only then did they discover three incredibly terrifying zombies below!
Several of them died upon first contact.
They were stronger than the Level 2 zombies Wang Tao had killed before!
Upon seeing the situation, Eldest Lu didn’t think twice and immediately ordered a retreat.
But it’s easy to go down, harder to get up!
At this point, they needed someone to hold the rear, and Xu Xiaojun readily took on the responsibility as the strongest in the camp.
Xu Xiaojun tried to block the zombies and attract their attention. Once the others got out, they were supposed to pull him out.
But to Xu Xiaojun’s surprise, the survivors didn’t come back for him after they left; instead, they locked the door, leaving him alone inside…
