The room contained a male zombie that had lost half of its body. Though it still seemed vigorous and had a sturdy build, it ultimately lacked arms and legs, couldnt stand up or dodge, and was easily head-shot by Wang Tao.
Wang Tao felt that this female zombie wasnt as strong as the male one in the hallway. He killed her without using Jump Slash. The minor injury he sustained was due to the terrain.
However, while Jump Slash was powerful, it also greatly damaged the weapons. Having dealt with the female zombie without using Jump Slash, his homemade short spear was barely useable.
After killing this male zombie, though, his kitchen knife was completely ruined, and even the rolling pin developed a crack and was on the verge of being scrapped.
After a brief rest, Wang Tao checked around the room.
He looked in the bathroom and the kitchen, and after confirming there was no danger, he locked up apartment 301 and then began to inventory his gains.
First was the male zombie. After killing him, Wang Tao gained an additional 5 HP, making his HP bar read [115/120].
Then there were the items he dropped.
[Acquired: Gear x1]
[Gear: Crafting Material]
This was a gear about the diameter of a ping-pong ball.
The female zombie dropped an iron block, and the male zombie dropped a gear. Moreover, both were described as crafting materials.
The term crafting materials is quite broad, and things like iron blocks and gears should be common everyday items, abundantly available in hardware stores.
Wang Tao didnt know the difference between the items dropped by zombies and those found in everyday life, but before figuring out their use, he was certainly going to save them for later rather than use them indiscriminately. After all, items dropped by zombies could be stored in the space backpack, which was very convenient for storage.
After putting the gear into the space backpack, he began to loot the corpse. But this male zombie didnt have anything useful on him.
Last was to scour the entirety of apartment 301.
As Wang Tao scavenged, he inferred the previous situation from clues and his own speculation.
It was likely that at the outbreak of the apocalypse, the woman turned into a zombie, whereas the man was initially normal.
The man might have had some strength. In the attack by the woman, he fought back, taking away over a dozen HP from the female zombie.
But he was wounded too, even having half of his body eaten by the female zombie.
The time it took to mutate after infection with the zombie virus varied from one minute to twenty-four hours. The man held on for quite a while, having a strong will to survive, and with the zombie virus potentially providing some enhancement when it activated, he dragged his severely injured body back to his own room.
But in the end, he couldnt withstand the virus and became a zombie.Visitt nov𝒆lbin(.)c𝒐/m for the l𝒂test updates
After he turned, the female zombie probably lost interest in him which is why when Wang Tao arrived, it felt so deathly quiet inside
The end of the world, huh
He sighed in his heart, but Wang Taos hands didnt stop searching.
Perhaps because two people lived here, the apartment was cluttered with numerous belongings.
Especially the womans things, which included clothing, cosmetics, adult toys, bags, various small ornaments, and so on, which took Wang Tao quite a while to sift through.
As for the mans possessions, they were simpler. Besides a relatively large number of shoes and various electronic products, there were few other miscellaneous items.
However, what Wang Tao cared about the most was the food, but these two didnt have muchonly enough for a day or two, and it was all vegetables and fruits that didnt keep well and were wilting.
Curiously, the womans room contained quite a few unopened snacks. Although they werent filling, they werent cheap either.
Huh?
In the kitchen, Wang Tao found three neatly cut lengths of steel pipe, one of a meter and two of half a meter each.
`
Good stuff!
Wang Tao was wondering what could replace his cracked rolling pin when this steel pipe came at just the right time. Moreover, if he sharpened the steel pipe a bit, it could even replace a kitchen knife. He had a whetstone at home, so he could do the sharpening there slowly.
Right, Ill take this too!
Wang Tao carried out the gas cylinder from the kitchen.
The gas cylinder in apartment 602 was nearly empty, so Wang Tao didnt bother with it. But the one in apartment 301 was almost full, so he could take it back home as well.
An hour later, Wang Tao, with a bundle wrapped in a bedsheet on his back and with a steel pipe sticking out, ran toward apartment 501 with a suitcase in each hand.
After placing the items at the doorstep, Wang Tao ran back to 301 to fetch the gas cylinder.
But before he locked the door of 301, he thought for a moment, went into the room, and despite feeling nauseous, dragged the two zombies out. Then he opened a window and threw them down, one after the other. He also threw out the zombie in the corridor.
Since the southern window overlooked the residential complexs yard, he was afraid of attracting zombies. So he threw them from the northern window, which meant they landed on the street.
Thump, thump, thump
Three sounds of heavy objects hitting the ground echoed.
Hiss
Roar
Instantly, a series of strange and penetrating hisses and roars came from the street. Several gruesome and terrifying zombies appeared from the darkness, wandering towards the source of the noise.
Indeed, the street is full of zombies!
Wang Tao felt a chill in his heart. Looking at the number, there were probably thirty to fifty of them, and who knows how many more were inside the shops. If someone unknowingly rushed into that area, they would likely find no place to run.
Across the street was a convenience store. Wang Tao had thought about scavenging there if he got the chance, confident that there would be plenty of supplies. But now he immediately dismissed the idea; he wanted to live a little longer.
After he moved the gas cylinder up to apartment 501, Wang Tao started to unlock his door. Just then, apartment 502 next door opened a small crack.
Ding Yuqin looked at Wang Tao with utter shock, seeing the big and small parcels beside him.
In fact, she had been paying attention since Wang Tao had left the house.
She had roughly heard some of the commotion downstairs. She didnt know exactly what had happened, but she knew when Wang Tao had left, he was holding a rolling pin tied with a kitchen knife, yet when Wang Tao returned, he brought back supplies in big and small packages.
Especially the half bag of rice peeking out of the big bundle, it made her feel like if Wang Tao were to give the rice to her, she could eat it raw.
As Wang Tao was about to enter his door, she clenched her teeth and opened her door.
Click
Wang Tao heard the noise and glanced at her.
As Wang Tao was wearing glasses, Ding Yuqin couldnt see his eyes clearly.
Cough that Wang Tao, youre amazing! Getting so many supplies today! I see youre having a bit of trouble carrying them Let sister-in-law help you
After saying this, Ding Yuqin embarrassingly immediately looked down at her feetoh, she couldnt see her toes.
Wang Tao was somewhat speechless; indeed, the stuff wasnt easy to carry, but he had already reached his own doorstepwas it that hard to take these last two steps? Why didnt she offer help earlier?
However, looking at Ding Yuqins pale face slowly turn a shade of blush, seeing the HP bar above her head displaying [15/100], Wang Tao thought for a moment and then said:
Okay. Then Ill trouble sister-in-law.
