The subsequent day.

Wang Tao wakened early.

First, he checked his totally charged telephone, nonetheless no sign, and emergency calls couldn’t get by way of both.

Water and electrical energy at residence hadn’t been minimize off but.

He regarded up on the deep blue sky.

“Is it the bottom station that’s damaged, or the satellite tv for pc? May there be one other catastrophe…”

He shook his head and tried not to consider it anymore.

Wang Tao took a few of the meals out of the fridge and made a wealthy breakfast.

Then he took all of the books off the bookshelf; they had been discounted decorations, however the books had been actual.

Wang Tao picked out books of acceptable sizes and taped them to his forearms, shins, back and front of his chest for defense. He didn’t wrap something round his thighs and higher arms as a result of these had been areas that wanted to exert pressure, and having them wrapped would make it troublesome to make use of energy correctly.

Subsequent was weapons, and there have been a number of pointed kitchen knives within the kitchen. However the knives had been a bit brief… After some thought, he tied a knife to a rolling pin to create a makeshift home made brief spear.

Wang Tao had truly wished to make a spear out of a mop, however the hall was fairly slender, and a weapon too lengthy may not be efficient; getting it caught may spell catastrophe.

The size of the rolling pin was excellent, neither too brief, which might enhance the possibility of an infection, nor too lengthy, which might make it unwieldy.

Lastly, Wang Tao discovered a thick hand towel and a pair of yellow anti-blue gentle glasses. He coated his head, face, and even eyes.

In spite of everything, the zombie virus was contagious, and preventative measures may by no means be too cautious!

Wang Tao checked himself within the full-length mirror.

There stood an individual within the mirror, over 1.8 meters tall, burly, carrying black gloves, a black masks, yellow glasses, brown mountaineering footwear, utterly wrapped up tightly, with home made arm guards on his arms, and holding a home made brief spear. He regarded very safe.

As soon as all the pieces was prepared, Wang Tao waited quietly behind the door.

The zombie had been wandering up and down the staircase and shortly got here up.

Wang Tao didn’t rush and continued to attend.

The zombie first went as much as the sixth flooring, then got here again right down to the fifth, earlier than heading downstairs towards the fourth flooring.

After seeing by way of the peephole that the zombie was going downstairs with its again towards him, Wang Tao took a deep breath after which all of a sudden opened the door.

Clack—

The sound of the safety door opening startled the zombie, which turned its stiff physique round displaying a face each terrifying and grotesque.

Whoosh!

Wang Tao gripped the home made brief spear and stabbed towards the zombie’s head.

The zombie, upon recognizing an individual, set free a fierce roar and spun round. However resulting from its stiffness, the motion was uncoordinated; it practically tripped over itself, staggering. Wang Tao’s stab missed!

Nonetheless, Wang Tao didn’t count on to kill it with one blow. The pointed kitchen knife couldn’t solely stab but in addition slash. He held the rolling pin with each arms and swung it down fiercely!

Slice—

The slash minimize from the zombie’s shoulder right down to its waist. The garments on the zombie made it troublesome to see how deep the minimize was, however Wang Tao may clearly see a sliver of HP disappearing from above the zombie’s head.

[-14]

[486/500]

What the hell!

That slash minimize solely this a lot HP?

Wang Tao knew the zombies had numerous HP, however he hadn’t anticipated it to be that a lot. Or fairly, the facility of his slash was too weak!

Though shocked, Wang Tao wasn’t too panicked inside.

Each he and the zombie had been within the hall, with the zombie beneath and him above. He had particularly chosen this place, standing above absolutely had its benefits.

Wang Tao rapidly retracted the knife, and the zombie took the chance to lunge at him, its arms smeared with blood reaching for Wang Tao.

Wang Tao instantly stepped again two paces, avoiding the zombie’s assault, then stabbed out with one other slash.

Zombies wouldn’t actively dodge an assault, the earlier miss was simply luck. This time, the stab hit laborious on the zombie’s brow, however… it didn’t go in!

The cranium is the toughest bone within the human physique, and the standard of the kitchen knife Wang Tao held was common, and it even had a barely rolled edge. It wasn’t stunning that it didn’t penetrate on the primary try.

However what stunned Wang Tao was that the strike didn’t trigger a lot injury.

[-3]

[483/500]

“Wasn’t the pinnacle presupposed to be a zombie’s weak spot? How come it’s solely this little injury? May or not it’s as a result of the cranium is simply too laborious, so it didn’t pierce the protection?”

As these ideas raced by way of his thoughts, Wang Tao gripped his home made brief spear tightly and thrust it fiercely from backside proper to prime left.

Swish!

The blade minimize throughout the zombie’s neck.

Pfft—

Darkish blood spurted from the zombie’s neck because it staggered a step again. Wang Tao’s minimize was shallow; though it sliced by way of the zombie’s neck, it didn’t sever the pinnacle.

Nonetheless, Wang Tao was considerably excited.

As a result of the injury from this strike was excessive.

[-117]

[366/500]

This minimize took away greater than twenty % of the zombie’s HP!

“The neck, it’s additionally a zombie’s weak spot! And in comparison with the pinnacle, reducing the neck is way simpler!”

Enraged, the zombie charged at Wang Tao once more, reaching out each arms to harshly swing at Wang Tao’s face.

Wang Tao was a number of steps from the wall behind him, making it troublesome to dodge this time. He rapidly took the spear in his proper hand, then raised his left arm, utilizing the vambrace to dam the zombie’s assault.

Bang!

Wang Tao was compelled two steps again, proper up in opposition to the wall.

This was the primary time Wang Tao had been attacked by a zombie, and he lastly understood why they mentioned zombies had immense energy. Together with his bodily health, enduring this strike made his arm considerably numb. If it had been anybody else, they could have been knocked down immediately.

However seeing that his HP hadn’t dropped a single level, Wang Tao felt invigorated.

That is actuality, not a sport!

In video games, if a monster assaults you, even when it’s only a contact, you lose HP, whether or not you lose just a little or rather a lot. That’s the sport mechanics.

However actuality is completely different; so long as you aren’t hit, you gained’t lose HP!

Wang Tao’s bodily health was excessive; because the strike with the vambrace didn’t trigger an exterior or inside harm, only a numbness, his HP remained full.

Understanding this, Wang Tao’s eyes shone brightly.

In video games, it’s a must to observe the principles of the sport when preventing monsters. With out a one-hit-kill mechanism, irrespective of how robust you might be, you can’t kill a monster in a single hit.

However actuality doesn’t observe these guidelines!

With this in thoughts, Wang Tao didn’t retreat however superior, charging fiercely in the direction of the zombie.

And the zombie, too, roared angrily and attacked Wang Tao once more.

Conflict!

Simply as he was about to collide with the zombie, Wang Tao exerted all his energy, all of a sudden kicked off the bottom, and harshly kicked the zombie’s chest.

The zombie’s energy was nice, however its weight was the identical as when alive, simply over 100 kilos. That weight couldn’t face up to Wang Tao’s Energize One Hit.

The zombie instantly rolled to the flip of the fourth-floor hall.

With out stopping, Wang Tao’s foot stepped on the stair, and he leaped powerfully. Like a flying man, he plunged towards the zombie. Each arms gripping the home made spear excessive above his head, as he landed, he stabbed viciously on the zombie beneath!

Pfft!

With the assistance of gravity, the spear plunged deep into the zombie’s brow.

[-366]

[0/500]

One-hit kill!
