Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 1476 - 614 Stealth Zombie Lord_2
Chapter 1476: Chapter 614 Stealth Zombie Lord_2
The fight began instantaneously!
Countless severed limbs were hurled about, and a multitude of zombies died upon first contact, yet zombies do not know fear, they kept swarming towards the humans like moths to a flame.
Of course, zombies aren’t moths, and Ding Yuqin and the others weren’t fire. Facing thousands of zombies, if they weren’t careful, they too could stumble and fall. Therefore, they were all very serious, with heightened vigilance, to avoid any mishaps.
Once Wang Tao was sure everyone was fine, he stopped paying attention to them and instead focused on the interior of the hospital, searching for the Sixth-Rank Lord Zombie.
"Where could it be, let me find... oh? Can’t stay hidden, coming out on its own?"
Wang Tao initially thought that this zombie would be the sneaky type, but unexpectedly, it didn’t hide deep and walked straight out from a building towards Ding Yuqin and the others.
This zombie was over 1.7 meters tall, wearing a dirty white lab coat, walking unsteadily, seemingly indistinguishable from Ordinary Zombies. But its power was something no Ordinary Zombie could compare with.
[HP: 1000000/1000000]
[Mana: 1000000/1000000]
[Level: Sixth-Rank Lord]
[Awakening Ability: Stealth Attack]
[Status: Stealth]
[Stealth Attack: In a non-combat state, the subject remains in Stealth state (Stealth: hides one’s own aura, making it hard to be detected by other creatures). While in Stealth state, both attack power and defensive power will receive significant enhancement]
"Hmm?" Seeing this zombie’s actions and attributes, Wang Tao was momentarily speechless.
He had just been saying that this zombie probably wasn’t the sneaky type and unexpectedly got proven wrong so quickly — regardless of its ordinary appearance or its [Stealth Attack] Awakening Ability, they both indicated it was indeed one of the most cunning types he had ever encountered — a Stealth Zombie!
Luckily, Wang Tao could directly see its attributes, and he spotted her immediately.
Otherwise, it is likely that she could have brazenly approached Ding Yuqin and the others. If they did not react in time, there was a high probability that this Zombie Lord could successfully ambush them and cause significant losses!
After all, as the introduction to [Stealth Attack] said, its attack power and defensive power would be greatly enhanced while in Stealth mode. This is the first time Wang Tao has seen the word "significantly" in an awakening introduction, indicating a considerable enhancement!
But since Wang Tao had already discovered it, naturally he wouldn’t let it get its way.
Sizzling——
Wang Tao’s eyes emitted two red High-Temperature Rays instantaneously, hitting the Stealth Zombie in a blink.
[-523]
[-504]
[-533]
[...]
Seeing the damage numbers popping up over the Stealth Zombie’s head, Wang Tao couldn’t help but be taken aback.
The damage is way too damn low, isn’t it?
Even when Wang Tao was dealing with a Sixth-Rank Giant Zombie with high Defense, he did not inflict such paltry damage of only five hundred!
So this is the effect of "extremely enhanced defensive power"? Quite impressive!
As Wang Tao marveled, the Stealth Zombie seemed a bit confused; it couldn’t understand how it was being attacked when there were so many zombies around... It didn’t realize it had been discovered, thinking it was just a small chance occurrence, so it did not take any action and just continued staggering towards Ding Yuqin’s position.
Only now, its Stealth state had vanished, and the presence of a Sixth-Rank Lord burst forth unrestrained. Instantaneously, it alerted Ding Yuqin and the others.
"A Sixth-Rank Lord Zombie has appeared!"
The group was very vigilant, scanning the Zombie Herd for the whereabouts of this Sixth-Rank Lord Zombie.
Since the Stealth Zombie had an average physique and an unremarkable appearance, plus numerous zombies were blocking the view, even though it revealed the presence of a Sixth-Rank Lord, they couldn’t immediately locate it among the horde.
Lan Yulian made a decisive decision, and immediately a pair of honeybee wings unfurled behind her, propelling her into the sky.
A Sixth-Rank Lord Zombie wasn’t scary, but one hiding in the shadows was. So she had to locate this zombie!
Just as Lan Yulian soared into the air and her gaze was about to settle on the vicinity of the Stealth Zombie, the Sixth-Rank Lord Zombie’s presence vanished once again! Lan Yulian’s eye scan missed her target completely, not realizing the zombie she was searching for was right beneath her nose.
"Eh?"
Wang Tao, who had been keeping watch on the Stealth Zombie, suddenly felt surprised.
He had thought that, after being spotted by him, the Stealth Zombie wouldn’t be able to launch stealth attacks anymore, but unexpectedly it managed to re-enter Stealth state again in a short amount of time!
Truly an Awakening! The Stealth Potion in his hand also possessed stealth effects, but with many restrictions... There’s simply no comparing potions and an Awakening.
"It’s over there."
Wang Tao immediately alerted Jade Lotus, and at the same time, two more red High-Temperature Rays landed on the body of the Stealth Zombie.
[-512]
[-524]
[-531]
[...]
After entering Stealth state, the Stealth Zombie’s defensive power greatly increased once again, and Wang Tao’s [Scorching Eyes] still couldn’t inflict significant damage. However, his attack did successfully mark the zombie, allowing Jade Lotus to spot it in one glance.
"That’s so cunning!"
Jade Lotus was immediately shocked.
He hadn’t expected the zombie to be so close to him and to look so ordinary. Had it not been for Wang Tao’s warning, they might have been sneak attacked! They were only at Fifth-Order Power, and if they were sneak attacked by a Sixth-Rank Lord Zombie, they’d probably be done for!
"Leave this one to me."
Wang Tao had the Golden Eagle continue observing from the sky; there were too many zombies here, and other Zombie Lords might be present, so they couldn’t lower their guard.
He spread his wings, radiated his sixth-order aura, took his great machete in hand, and flew rapidly toward the Stealth Zombie.
Seeing Wang Tao flying towards it, the Stealth Zombie realized that it was truly exposed.
Roar!
It let out a roar, raised its sharp claws, and swiped at the oncoming Wang Tao.
Clang!
The great machete clashed with the claws, emitting a metallic collision sound. It didn’t suffer much damage, but after taking the hit from Wang Tao’s strike, it was sent flying and smashed into the zombie herd, shattering several Elite Zombies straight away.
Before it could get up, Wang Tao was already in front of it, delivering another blow to its head.
Boom!
[-51394]
[-10000]
[Curse: Slow]
Wang Tao’s strike directly dealt over 50,000 damage to the Stealth Zombie. Meanwhile, Jade Lotus had just taken the opportunity to cast a Healing spell on Wang Tao, carrying the "Biochemical Virus" effect, and it was the kind that deducted 10% of the target’s current HP, so added up, Wang Tao’s strike dealt over 60,000 damage to the Stealth Zombie!
The Stealth Zombie’s defensive power was much lower than Wang Tao had imagined, but that was normal; the Stealth Zombies he had encountered before didn’t have as good bodily quality compared to other zombies. Stealth Zombies are stronger in stealth attacks, but if discovered prematurely, rendering them unable to sneak attack, they’re virtually useless.
This Lord-Rank Stealth Zombie was probably similar; its bodily quality among the Sixth Rank Lords was likely average. Although its Stealth Ability was much stronger than that of ordinary Stealth Zombies, and it also significantly increased its attack power and defensive power, as long as it was kept in a constant state of battle, it was just an ordinary Sixth Rank Lord, posing no threat to Wang Tao.
The Stealth Zombie was bewildered by Wang Tao’s blow; seizing the opportunity, Wang Tao went for the kill and instantly ignited flames on his body, fighting it with his full might.
In just a matter of seconds, the head of this Sixth-Rank Lord Stealth Zombie was cut off by Wang Tao.
"Chirp——"
At this moment, the Golden Eagle suddenly cried out, signaling the appearance of other Sixth-Rank Lord Zombies.
Wang Tao quickly collected the spoils of war and took to the skies again. Then he saw from the hospital building, five zombies walked out, all of Sixth-Rank Lord Level!
This made Wang Tao frown. Was there some unknown change in the hospital that led to a large number of Lord Zombies? Or could there be higher-level zombies existing...
