Chapter 294: 150: Poisonous Fog Zombie (Seeking
Guaranteed Monthly Votes)_i
Seeing more and more zombies gathering downstairs and the green poisonous fog growing denser, Xiang Hongbin and his group were left with no choice but to decide to make a break for it!
While several committee members had gas masks, the others did not. If everyone else was poisoned to death, then what would be the point of them being the only survivors? Besides, it wasn’t certain that they would survive either.
If they didn’t make a move now while they still had the numbers and before everyone had completely lost their combat power, then they would have no choice but to wait for death when most people had become incapacitated!
“Are Wang Tao and Old Xiang okay?”
Xiang Hongbin asked as he strapped several firefighter axes to his body.
“They seem to have some immunity to this poison in their sleeping state… But just to be safe, I’ve put gas masks on them too…”
Ren Jie replied.
“Alright, that puts my mind at ease!”
Xiang Hongbin nodded, then went downstairs. Looking at the group of people who covered their mouths and noses with cloth, he sighed internally before speaking with a resolute tone:
Everyone, I will not say much more. I just want to tell you, this is the end of the world! If you want to be safe, then you have to fight for your life! If we don’t take out those poisonous zombies outside, we will surely die. But if we go out and deal with them now, we still have a chance to live! So, follow me and rush out!”
“Rush!”
Wang Tao and Wei Zhenguo were still asleep, so Xiang Hongbin, being the strongest combat force of the base, had to set an example.
Squeak—
The iron gate downstairs opened, emitting sharp, scraping sounds.
“Hehe…”
The zombies, sensitive to noise, detected the movement and immediately rushed frantically towards the door.
Then.
Boom—
A faint white glow flashed by as Xiang Hongbin made a rush from inside the building straight outside.
He knocked over a dozen zombies, but they didn’t die!
“They didn’t die!”
Xiang Hongbin was taken aback. With that one rush, he could instantly kill mad demon zombies and some HP-weak elite zombies! But these poisonous fog zombies, they didn’t die?
Boom—
Promptly, several other rushes occurred-there was no shortage of ability users who had learned the Rush Ability.
However, like Xiang Hongbin, most of them couldn’t instantly kill these poisonous fog zombies.
There were still instances of kills, but those were when several people rushed onto the same zombie at the same time…
Seeing this situation, Xiang Hongbin’s expression turned grim. Even without the poisonous fog, these zombies were stronger than the mad demon zombies! Probably not inferior to the elite zombies, it’s just not clear if these zombies were elite zombies…
But now that they had already charged out, it was pointless to talk about anything else; they had no choice but to fight!
Bang-
Xiang Hongbin unleashed a shockwave at the group of poisonous fog zombies that he had knocked to the ground. The zombies were hit by the shockwave and flung about in disarray, but still, none died. It was only after the second shockwave that some of the poisonous fog zombies finally died at his hands.
“At least two or three hits are needed to kill these zombies!”
With his current strength, if he were to ambush elite zombies, it would also take two or three hits. This meant that in terms of defensive power, these zombies were essentially on par with elite zombies!
Although Xiang Hongbin could kill these zombies in a few hits, there were too many of them-possibly tens of thousands! If they were all before him, then even if his axe became blunt from chopping, he wouldn’t be able to kill them all!
What troubled Xiang Hongbin even more was that, even after killing these zombies, their bodies would still release green poisonous fog!
“Damn it, not even a Crystal Core! They’re not elite zombies after all…”
Xiang Hongbin took the opportunity to pry open the head of a poisonous fog zombie and found that there was no Crystal Core inside.
However, there was still some good news; Xiang Hongbin discovered that these zombies had no other attacking abilities apart from being high in HP and defensive power and able to release poison.
Compared to many elite zombies, these poisonous fog zombies were relatively easier to deal with in head-on combat.
Of course, this relative ease was only in comparison to Xiang Hongbin. For others, these poisonous fog zombies were not so easy to handle.
Especially after many had inhaled the poisonous fog, their strength diminished significantly. Already difficult to fight, and now with their combat power reduced, they became even harder to tackle.
“Ah-”
An ability user suddenly screamed in agony as a zombie bit into his neck from behind. He writhed wildly, trying to break free, but more zombies crowded in, and he quickly fell silent without a chance to use his inhibitor…
“Shit!”
Xiang Hongbin cursed quietly, then smashed the head of the zombie that had just tangled with him.
He witnessed the scene from a distance, but was surrounded by zombies and couldn’t offer support. He could only redirect his anger towards these zombies.
But this casualty was just the beginning.
Soon, casualties started to occur one after another.
Those with luck on their side were saved by their companions and quickly drank an inhibitor. The unlucky ones were bitten to death on the spot without a chance to use their inhibitor.
Xiang Hongbin watched as survivors kept dying one after another, heedless of the danger, he charged into the throng of zombies and killed over a dozen in just a few moments, his combat power seeming to grow even stronger.
But he alone was not enough; there were simply too many zombies!
In one moment, as Xiang Hongbin swung his axe at a poisonous fog zombie, the creature dodged by tilting its head, avoiding the strike, and then it slapped him hard across the chest.
