Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot

Dawn was approaching.

The night demons beneath the high walls receded like the tide.

The attacks of the mad demon zombies also began to slow, and the other zombies were no longer as frenzied as before.

Wang Tao looked around and, after confirming there were no zombie lords, he then returned to the base.

“Phew—”

Atop the high walls, everyone was somewhat exhausted.

Although there was no danger tonight, no one dared to relax in the slightest, their spirits highly concentrated, which was absolutely exhausting.

Now, although the zombies were still assaulting the high walls, the frequency had reduced significantly, and the people could finally take a brief rest.

“Is everyone okay?”

“We’re all good!”

“Okay, then I’m going to rest. Call me if there’s anything.”

Wang Tao nodded.

He hadn’t rested at all tonight and was the busiest among them. Although he still had plenty of energy, he needed to maintain a good state. After all, he was the only one in the entire base who could handle four-level zombies.

When Wang Tao went to rest, he also glanced at the Bloody Chainsaw.

Its HP had risen to 50,000; one more time and it would probably reach a hundred thousand blood!

After using the Bloody Chainsaw to kill so many zombies, Wang Tao had pretty much figured out the proper use of this weapon.

The damage of the Bloody Chainsaw did indeed have some relation to its own HP, but the increase wasn’t significant. The main purpose of this HP was to improve endurance!

When using it, it consumes 100 blood per second. A Bloody Chainsaw with 10,000 blood could only be used for 100 seconds under normal circumstances, which is less than two minutes. One with 50,000 blood could last for 500 seconds, more than eight minutes. That was a significant increase in endurance.

Of course, the Bloody Chainsaw could regain health by killing zombies. Killing any zombie with it would regenerate health for the Chainsaw. The only question was how much. And only by killing level 3 or higher zombies could the Chainsaw’s maximum health limit be increased.

Overall, the Bloody Chainsaw was still quite good to use. After all, it was very simple to operate: just start the chainsaw and press it against the zombies. Wherever you hit a zombie, it would lose health.

When dealing with large-scale zombie attacks, using the chainsaw might not be as efficient as using a shockwave, but it was much less effort-consuming. After all, it didn’t require Wang Tao to do much. Killing zombies even gave Wang Tao a feeling of slacking off… The only drawback might be that the damage wasn’t very high.

Back in the central area, Wang Tao had something simple to eat and then rested. He had barely slept last night, so now was the time to catch up on sleep. ṘἁꞐꝊ𐌱Ёš

In the afternoon, Wang Tao suddenly felt something damp on his face. Opening his eyes, he found Lightning licking him with a big tongue.

“Go away! Don’t be a bootlicker!”

Wang Tao pushed Lightning’s head away.

After Lightning’s successful ascension to level 3, its body had grown significantly larger, now resembling a small calf, looking majestic and powerful!

Jiang Shixue could probably use it as a mount.

Wang Tao played with Lightning for a bit, then rubbed its head and said:

“Later, I’ll take you out to boost your health bar, aiming to get you to a hundred thousand blood quickly!”

“Woof!”

After washing his face, Wang Tao walked out with Lightning.

Lan Yulian and others were already outside.

Lightning had also just woken up not long ago, and everyone marveled at its size. Having such a big dog around felt very secure.

After that, Lan Yulian told Wang Tao that the onslaught of the zombie horde had slowed down, and they should be safe for the time being.

“Seems like zombies can get tired too, huh!”

Wang Tao laughed.

Everyone laughed along.

After holding off such a fierce attack last night, they were feeling somewhat confident now.

Wang Tao and the others had a simple lunch together, and he inquired about their equipment and ammunition.

There wasn’t much ammunition left from the military base, and though it would have been enough for them, it certainly wouldn’t be if used against the zombie horde.

“Judging by the intensity of yesterday’s attack, our ammunition should last about three more days.”

Ding Yuqin said, holding a list.

“Three days, that’s not too bad.”

Wang Tao nodded.

According to the agreement with Changhe City Base, reinforcements should arrive by this time tomorrow. Even if there were any problems, delaying it by one or two days would be sufficient.

As for whether the other side would be able to come over, Wang Tao felt that they must be aware of the difficulties on the road, and since they dared to agree, they definitely had the means to do so.

After lunch, Wang Tao went out of the base with Jiang Shixue and Lightning.

Jiang Shixue had also reached the pinnacle of level 3, but both Wang Tao and she were unclear on how to awaken. After all, Jiang Shixue was different from the others.

Wang Tao had also tried feeding her blood once before, but it didn’t work this time.

However, it was understandable. After all, ascension to level 4 required awakening, and if awakening was so easy to achieve, it wouldn’t be called awakening.

So, Wang Tao thought that if conditions allowed, it would be best to take Jiang Shixue out to kill more zombies, perhaps that might present the opportunity for awakening.

Outside Zijin Base.

The zombie horde’s attacks had weakened, but they had not retreated.

And even though so many zombies were killed last night, today it seemed like there were even more than yesterday.

“These zombies… really are endless!”

Wang Tao exclaimed, then took out the chainsaw and began hunting zombies.

There were no zombie lords in sight for the time being, but there were quite a few level two and level three elite zombies. Especially a lot of mad demon zombies; those were groupings of level two and three zombies.
