Chapter 305: Chapter 153: Slaving 3

But the other Poisonous Fog Zombies and Mad Demon Zombies were either blown to pieces or crushed under the collapsed buildings. Now, standing in front of Wang Tao, there were less than ten remaining.

However, to Wang Tao’s surprise, among these ten zombies, there were actually two Level 2 Zombies!

[HP: 1239/5000]

[Mana: 768/1000]

[Level: Level 2 Elite]

The first Level 2 Zombie had only 1200 HP left.

[HP: 1004/5000]

[Mana: 806/1000]

[Level: Level 2 Elite]

The second Level 2 Zombie had only 1000 HP left.

“These two zombies must be the weaker Level 2 Zombies that Zhen Guo was talking about…”

5000 HP is the threshold for Level 2, so these must have ascended to Level 2 not long ago, and both zombies had very little mana. In Wang Tao’s opinion, zombies with more mana are stronger.

Of course, the biggest difference is in the level. The Toad zombie’s level is [Level 2 – Lord], while these two Level 2 Zombies’ level is [Level 2 Elite], which is clearly one level lower.

Wang Tao then looked at one of the ordinary zombies.

[HP: 2983/4.000]

[Mana: 0/0]

[Level: Level 1 – Ordinary]

This zombie was even weaker. It had no mana, which meant it had no Crystal Core. As for the green poisonous fog it carried, it was probably not an Ability, but some kind of talent or hidden ability…

“Roar—”

The Toad zombie glared at Wang Tao furiously. Then it let out a roar and charged at Wang Tao.

Wang Tao did not plan to fight it yet, but instead ran towards the two Level 2 Zombies.

Thud—

Wang Tao swung his hammer down and instantly burst the head of one of the Level 2 Zombies.

[-1004]

[0/5000]

They were truly much weaker!

“Hehe…”

The other Level 2 Zombie lunged at Wang Tao. He raised his Big Hammer and unleashed a Shockwave.

Splat—

[-1239]

[0/5000]

[-2983]

[0/4000]

[…]

This Level 2 Zombie’s head also burst, and at the same time, he killed the surrounding zombies as well.

Wang Tao quickly collected the spoils of war, then swiftly glanced at his own HP bar.

Killing ordinary zombies still didn’t increase his HP, killing these two Level 2 Zombies added 80 each, a total of 160—wait, only 80 HP? Wasn’t that too little?

Wang Tao clearly remembered that when he killed the zombie Shao Yong before, he gained 960 HP…

In addition to gaining HP, Wang Tao’s Special Energy bar showed no changes, killing these two zombies didn’t add any Special Energy. This was within Wang Tao’s expectations, since it was said that only killing higher-level zombies would grant Special Abilities, and these two weak Level 2 Zombies clearly didn’t meet Wang Tao’s conditions for a higher-level kill.

“Roar—”

Once again, the Toad zombie leaped high, pouncing towards Wang Tao.

Wang Tao swung his Big Hammer, and as the Toad zombie landed on him, Wang Tao smashed its head with a fierce blow, as if he were playing baseball. Bang!

The toad zombie was sent flying back with even greater speed than when it had initially pounced.

[-1024]

[4476/12000]

But as it flew back, it suddenly opened its mouth wide, and a thick, large tongue shot towards Wang Tao’s chest at high speed.

Because of the tongue’s swift movement, and the fact that Wang Tao had just sent the toad zombie flying, he didn’t react in time.

Thump—

The tongue smashed directly into Wang Tao’s chest.

[-431]

Wang Tao felt a stuffiness in his chest followed by an intense, piercing pain, and he almost couldn’t catch his breath.

“Damn!”

This tongue attack from the toad zombie was clearly much stronger than the last, with its tongue noticeably larger. Even though Wang Tao had activated his Barrier and was wearing stubborn armor, he still lost over four hundred HP!

If Wang Tao had no defence abilities or equipment, wouldn’t that hit have almost killed him?

Having initially felt a bit overconfident after exchanging blows with the toad zombie, Wang Tao quickly became more cautious.

While he was strong, a Level 2 Zombie Lord was not weak at all! There was a chance he could be turned over!

For safety’s sake, Wang Tao used a defence potion.

After all, he wasn’t a zombie; even if the zombies couldn’t hit his head, being hit anywhere else would cause him to lose HP, and humans had far more weaknesses than zombies! If he were to endure a few more hits of the magnitude he had just experienced, it was uncertain if he could withstand them.

The defence potion took immediate effect, and feeling as if he had gained a very substantial power inside, Wang Tao immediately lunged towards the toad zombie with his Big Hammer in tow!

A moment later, the toad zombie’s HP dropped to “3566,” and Wang Tao watched it nervously yet expectantly.

The toad zombie had a total of 12000 HP, and 30% of that was 3600. Wang Tao wanted to know if it had a Frenzy ability similar to the Gorilla zombie. The condition for triggering the Frenzy ability was when its HP fell below 30%.

Although Wang Tao thought it was highly unlikely, since he had roughly figured out what abilities the toad zombie had, he couldn’t rule out the possibility of it having the Frenzy ability, and if it did, he could synthesize it!

Unfortunately, when the toad zombie’s HP decreased below 30%, other than getting angrier, nothing happened.

“Damn it, what good are you!”

Wang Tao suddenly felt irritated, then swung his Big Hammer and began attacking furiously.

Several minutes later, Wang Tao, having withstood several attacks from the toad zombie, finally delivered a crushing blow to its head.

Pff-

[-621]

[0/12000]

The toad zombie’s HP bar emptied, and it dropped a pile of loot.

Wang Tao quickly collected the loot and, while picking up the Crystal Core, glanced at his own HP bar.

“Only 600 HP added…”

Wang Tao frowned. Although he felt the toad zombie wasn’t as tough as the Gorilla zombie, it was definitely much tougher than the zombie Shao Yong, especially since it also had 12000 HP. Yet the HP he gained was even less than what he had got from killing Shao Yong.

Could it be because, when he killed Shao Yong, he was Level 1, and now that he was Level 2, there was no bonus?

Wang Tao, who loved gaming when he had free time, could only come up with this explanation.

Then Wang Tao looked at his Special Energy.

“Huh? It actually increased!”

The Special Energy increased by 320! With the previous 160, he now had 480!

Wang Tao had thought that earning Special Energy by killing higher level zombies meant “Level 1 killing Level 2,” but it seemed that even as a Level 2, killing a Level 2 Zombie Lord also granted Special Energy!

This was good news; otherwise, with his current abilities, thinking of killing a Level 3 zombie would be a dream. Moreover, it wasn’t even certain if there were any Level 3 zombies yet…

“Time to head back…”

Wang Tao got hold of the well-hidden Xiang Hongbin, slung him over his shoulder, and ran back to base.

However, when he arrived outside the base, Wang Tao suddenly knitted his brows.

“Something’s not right…”
