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

Xu Xiaojun drove the plane out of the hangar.

Wang Tao locked all the doors of the base, then boarded the plane.

For safety's sake, He Jijun had prepared parachutes for everyone. After all, he had only flown old models of planes, and this was his first time flying a new model. Plus, if there was any hidden fault in the plane, he wouldn't be able to recognize it.

Wang Tao hadn't been nervous, but He Jijun's actions had made him somewhat anxious. He told everyone,

"If there really is any danger, run towards me."

Being the strongest, Wang Tao could protect them if there were any danger.

"Okay!"

Everyone nodded their agreement.

He Jijun took the pilot's seat in the plane, while Wang Tao sat in the co-pilot's seat. Everyone else sat behind Wang Tao.

Whirr—

Ignition, startup.

The jet transport plane took off much slower than a helicopter, and the noise attracted some distant zombies. Finally, the plane took off.

Wang Tao was extremely tense, fearful that something would go wrong with the plane.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly until they were in the sky, and Wang Tao finally relaxed.

The transport plane didn't fly too high because Wang Tao wanted to observe the situation on the ground.

There didn't seem to be any changes in the urban area of Wuyang City for the time being; he didn't see any zombie hordes. But there were already enough zombies within the city to easily trigger a horde...

As the plane quickly left Wuyang City, Wang Tao indeed saw many zombies on the ground. The plane flew over the heads of the zombies, causing countless of them to roar and even chase after it.

"God, it's really a horde!"

Nie Siyan covered her mouth.

The zombies on the ground were like a dark tide, creating a chilling sight.

These zombies varied in size and strength, but no Giant Zombie or other Level 4 Zombie Lords could be seen, which gave him a temporary sigh of relief.

As long as there weren't too many Level 4 zombies, especially the Giant Zombies, their safety should still be guaranteed.

A moment later, the plane approached the vicinity of Duzhu Town.

Wang Tao glanced down and saw that the number of zombies there had also greatly increased. The base in Duzhu Town looked dilapidated, with many zombies inside.

He wondered whether the base had fallen or if they had evacuated in advance. Wang Tao hoped for the latter.

"We've entered Zijing City..."

The plane was fast, and it wasn't long before they entered the scope of Zijing City.

But as soon as they entered Zijing City, Wang Tao clearly felt even more zombies than when he left, many more.

Especially when the plane reached Zijing City Downtown, looking at the sea of people below, Wang Tao's complexion didn't look good.

Fortunately, he saw that Zijin Base had not fallen. However, there were many zombies outside the base.

Wang Tao immediately turned on the radio and started contacting Zijin Base.

...

Inside Zijin Base, Lan Yulian's face was full of worry.

Recently, the number of zombies in Zijing City had increased significantly. At first, she thought there might be a queen zombie capable of nurturing other zombies, having encountered one before. She even considered organizing a hunting party to go after it.

But who could have anticipated that the number of zombies would keep growing, and she then realized it was a massive horde! The previous zombies were just the vanguard!

Of course, even if she had found out about the horde earlier, it wouldn't have changed anything because the base was here, with more than ten thousand people. They couldn't leave, and there was nowhere to go.

Faced with such a horde, Lan Yulian's only thought was to hold the fort.

If it were just an ordinary zombie horde, holding the base wouldn't be a problem.

But this horde was anything but ordinary. There were so many Level 3 Zombie Lords; she had even gone out with Lu Yingfeng and a few others to kill a few.

Aren't Zombie Lords supposed to act alone? What's going on with so many lords gathered here?

Apart from the Level 3 Lords, there were hordes of Level 3 Elite Zombies, Level 2 Zombie Lords, Level 2 Elites, and so on.

These zombies were now all gathered outside the base.

Zijin Base was large enough to be self-sufficient. Even without foraging for supplies outside, they could live quite well. After all, the base raised fish and pigs and had its own vegetable gardens.

But having so many zombies endlessly surrounding them wasn't a solution, and sooner or later it would lead to problems.

Just yesterday, Lan Yulian saw a Level 3 Zombie Lord with Ranged Attack abilities! The guards on the high walls didn't dare to show their heads anymore.

Moreover, Lan Yulian always had a bad premonition. Now that there were so many Level 3 Lords, seeing a Level 4 zombie wouldn't be surprising.

If there was a Level 4 zombie, could their base still hold up?

Lan Yulian felt that the limits of their base could only hold off a Level 3 Lord. Because judging from Nie Siyan's jumping ability, if a Level 4 zombie showed up, it might be able to leap over the walls of the base in just a few bounds...

"If he were here, what would he do..."

Jade Lotus seemed distracted.

Just then, Ying Feng suddenly came in through the door.

Usually, Ying Feng would knock before entering; if she didn't, it meant there was an emergency.

"What's wrong, Little Feng?"

Jade Lotus quickly asked.

"Jade Lotus, we just spotted from the high tower a large number of Level 3 Elite Zombies with huge statures, and they seem to be strength-based zombies. They are coming towards our base!"

Ying Feng said seriously.

"Lots of strength-based Level 3 Elite Zombies..."

Jade Lotus turned pale.

Their base was an unfinished one, with many vulnerable spots, and if a strong zombie found them, they could very well push down the walls!

"Let me go out and take care of those zombies..."

Ying Feng suddenly spoke up.

"No!"

Jade Lotus immediately objected.

She didn't doubt that Ying Feng could take out the zombies, but whether she could return after going out was another matter.

"These zombies are like siege soldiers, if I don't go out and deal with them, we might not be able to defend the base..."

Ying Feng sighed.

She didn't want to die, but sometimes, there was no choice.

...

Jade Lotus fell silent.

She didn't want Ying Feng to go out, but her going was indeed a solution.

"How about this, I will go with you! With me there, I can ensure your safety!"

Jade Lotus said.

"No way! Absolutely not!"

This time it was Ying Feng who refused, and she was very firm.

She was prepared for the possibility of sacrificing herself, but she didn't want to risk Jade Lotus's life.

If she died, it wouldn't have too great of an impact on the base. But if Jade Lotus died, the base would be paralyzed. Moreover, she had long promised to protect Jade Lotus!

"I'm the leader, listen to me!"

"That still won't work! Anyway, I don't allow it!"

"You—"

Buzz buzz—

Just as they were at a standoff, a buzzing noise suddenly came from outside.

Both women were familiar with this sound.

An airplane! There was an airdrop at this time?

"No way!"

The women glanced at each other, excitement visible in their eyes.

Ying Feng quickly got the military walkie-talkie previously given to them by Wang Tao. They went outside and immediately saw the transport plane flying over.

"Zzzz... zzzz... This is Wang Tao, I'm on the airplane, can anyone receive this?"

Hearing this voice, the women were so excited they almost jumped up.

"Wang Tao! This is Jade Lotus! Little Feng is with me! Sob... It's so good to know you're alive! By the way, is Little Xue safe?"

Jade Lotus was so moved that she almost cried.

"I'm glad to see that you're all right too; Little Xue and I are safe, don't worry. So, do you need help now?"

Wang Tao said with a smile, relieved to hear that Jade Lotus and Ying Feng were out of danger, his heavy mood lightened considerably.

"We do! There are a bunch of strength-based Level 3 Elite Zombies to the southwest of the base; they might be about to destroy the high walls! Little Feng wants to go out and hunt them, but it's too dangerous... Help me!"

Jade Lotus believed in Wang Tao's strength; she was sure he could handle it.

"Wait a moment."

Aboard the plane, Wang Tao left the co-pilot's seat and called out.

"Follow me, let's go shoot!"

"Okay!"
