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

Chapter 103: Ruthless Person, Familiar Person_2

Translator: 549690339

If Wang Tao had any quirks, disliked such ruthless people, or if Wang Tao was an absolute justice seeker who couldn’t tolerate even a speck of dust in his eyes, then his life might even be at risk.

But Gao Hua gambled anyway.

Because only those who have truly experienced despair can understand the importance of one’s own strength—he didn’t want to team up with these losers anymore!

“What did you do before? Have you ever killed anyone?”

Wang Tao suddenly asked. The man looked neat and tidy, and didn’t seem to be from the Black Society!

“I used to work in the finance industry, and of course I haven’t killed anyone; I haven’t even killed a chicken,”

Gao Hua quickly responded.

“Oh?”

Wang Tao was somewhat surprised. Someone from the financial sector? They should all be capable people, right?

Understanding what Wang Tao was thinking, Gao Hua gave a wry smile and shook his head:

“In the financial industry, individual ability isn’t actually important; what’s important are power and connections. So, I didn’t do too well…”

He was barely making a million a year.

But he didn’t dare to say that, fearing Wang Tao might think he was showing off…

Wang Tao shook his head and didn’t say much more, instead turning to the others and said:

“We are from Suzaku University Survivor Base. Do you want to stay here or go to the base?”

“Suzaku University Base?” The others exchanged looks, then quickly nodded, “We, we’ll go to the Survivor Base with you!”

They had run out of food, and staying here meant waiting for death.

Everyone agreed to go to the Survivor Base. No one asked what the situation was like inside the base, nor did anyone speak up for Xie Xia and her grandson.

Seeing that they all agreed, Wang Tao then looked at Gao Hua.

“And you?”

“I’ll follow you, big brother!”

Gao Hua said without hesitation.

“Okay. Then you guys just wait here. Someone will come to pick you up later.”

After saying that, Wang Tao prepared to leave.

“Ah? Aren’t we leaving with you?”

“What about us if you leave…”

“Please don’t leave us behind…”

The other survivors were startled, then nearly all showed panic on their faces.

Wang Tao said indifferently:

“My car can’t fit so many people. Unless someone is willing to volunteer to stay behind and give their spot to someone else, then I can take a few people with me first.”

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately fell silent, as none of them were willing to sacrifice themselves for the others.

“Since you’re not willing, then just wait here patiently.”

Wang Tao didn’t want to personally take these people back, mainly because a few of them had been so scared they had soiled themselves. That would contaminate his car.

Gao Hua saw that Wang Tao was getting a little unhappy, and inwardly cursed them as fools, then quickly said:

“Alright, big brother, we won’t go anywhere, just wait here for rescue!”

“Very good.”

Wang Tao looked at Gao Hua and then nodded in satisfaction.

He then told the other survivors:

“Before rescue arrives, just listen to…”

Wang Tao suddenly remembered that he didn’t know the name of the man with glasses.

“My name is Gao Hua!”

Seeing Wang Tao looking at him, Gao Hua quickly said.

“Right, listen to Gao Hua. Secure the doors and windows and wait for rescue.”

“…Yes!”

The people hurriedly nodded.

Wang Tao nodded to Han Rui, and then the two of them left.

After watching Wang Tao and the other person leave, Gao Hua quickly locked the door.

“Whew—rescued at last!”

Gao Hua’s heart surged with excitement; he knew he had made the right bet, clinging to a mighty thigh!

Although he didn’t know what status this ‘big brother’ held within the Survivor Base, it didn’t matter as long as ‘big brother’ had strength!

In a post-apocalyptic world, one’s own strength was the fundamental!

“Are you really going to bring that Gao Hua into the base?”

The two had just left the building when Han Rui asked softly, curious.

She probably felt it was a bit rude to question like that and quickly added:

“I’m not doubting your decision-making, I just think, with so many survivors having seen Gao Hua kill someone, bringing him into the base may cause some negative impact…”

“Later on, I’ll have Gao Hua warn these people not to talk nonsense. Of course, it doesn’t matter if they do talk. I’m a committee member; what I say goes.”

II II

Han Rui rolled her eyes at Wang Tao.

Wang Tao thought that Gao Hua was quite capable and a talent—being ruthless was also a kind of ability.

And, as he said, he was a committee member, one of the highest-ranking individuals in the base; his actions required no explanation to others.

The two proceeded cautiously to the entrance of the community, where the Self-exploder zombie still lingered.

First, Wang Tao and Han Rui climbed out over the courtyard wall, then they approached the car, ensuring everything was secure. Wang Tao said to Han Rui:

“Let’s check that house over there first.”

“Okay.”

Wang Tao drove to a house on the street with the doors closed.

After Han Rui used her Ability to check and ensure there was no danger, Wang Tao used lock picking tools to open the door.

“This place is decent, can be used for temporary shelter.”

Then Wang Tao drove the car slowly towards the entrance of the community, stopping at a spot where the shooting distance and angle were perfect for Han Rui.

“I’ll drive the car, and you take out that Self-exploder from a distance in the car.”

Wang Tao told Han Rui.

He planned to let Han Rui deal with the Self-exploder, to test its defensive power.

Given the special nature of the Self-exploder zombie, either kill it with one hit, or fail to kill it and the Self-exploder detonates… Since his Arrow Technique was pretty rubbish, he certainly wouldn’t be able to hit the Self-exploder at this distance. Therefore, Han Rui only had one chance to attack, and he had no opportunity to intervene.
