Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 326 - 159 Granary_3

Chapter 326: Chapter 159 Granary_3

So, Wang Tao suspected that this might be a Level 2 Zombie.

If it really was a Level 2 Zombie, then even if Eldest Lu didn’t allow him to go, he would have to take a look. After all, there were many benefits to killing a Level 2 Zombie, and Wang Tao had been searching for one on his journey…

“You can rest assured about that, we’ve tested it already. This zombie is strong, but not ridiculously so. With so many of us in the camp, plus Mr. Wang, you’re definitely able to deal with it! After all, we wouldn’t joke about our own lives.”

Eldest Lu immediately assured him.

“Good, then I’m in,”

Wang Tao nodded.

Seeing Wang Tao agree, Eldest Lu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

“Haha, great! But let’s agree on the distribution of the food we’ll get afterwards! I’m thinking that we distribute it based on the contribution to killing this zombie. Those who contribute more, get more, and those who contribute less, naturally get less…”

Seeing that Wang Tao didn’t speak, Eldest Lu continued:

“Of course, quantifying contribution is quite subjective. After all, we can’t really tally up who caused how much damage… So, to prevent any disputes, I propose that as long as you participate, the minimum share of food for Mr. Wang will be no less than 5%!”

It’s hard to say exactly how much food there is in a county-level grain reserve, but it’s definitely a lot. If the food is still edible, 5% is certainly a substantial amount.

Eldest Lu was quite generous; he had decided that Wang Tao was very strong. Having such a powerful person join them would greatly increase their chances of success. Even if Wang Tao wasn’t helpful, giving 5% of the food in exchange for a good impression was a profitable deal!

Of course, he didn’t know exactly how strong Wang Tao was. If he did, he certainly wouldn’t have promised a guaranteed 5%.

Wang Tao didn’t say much either, he just nodded his head.

“Okay. Just let me know when we’re leaving. But let me be clear upfront, I will definitely check out this zombie myself. If I feel that we can’t handle it, I reserve the right to back out at any time.”

“Haha, no problem at all!”

With a smile, Eldest Lu then took out something that looked like a book from a nearby cabinet.

Wang Tao raised his eyebrows when he saw it—it was a map.

“This is a map I bought before, with plans to go on a road trip… but then the apocalypse happened. Anyway, I won’t be using it, so I’ll give it to Mr. Wang!”

Eldest Lu’s gaze held a hint of vicissitude.

His original plan was to hire a professional to manage his resort while he and his family went on a nationwide road trip. Now he had money and time.

Unfortunately, the road trip would never happen, and he was left all alone.

“Then I thank you!”

Looking at the latest edition of the map, Wang Tao’s face showed a smile.

This wasn’t just a single sheet; it was an entire book of maps, detailing each city’s situation. With this map, as long as he didn’t venture into deep forests or remote hills, he would basically never get lost again.

“Haha, it’s all about helping each other out!” Eldest Lu laughed heartily, then said, “We have plenty of rooms here. Shall I have someone prepare one for Mr. Wang? When it’s time to hunt the zombie, I’ll come get you. It will likely be within the next few days…”

Eldest Lu had originally planned to wait for clear weather before hunting the zombie, but the rain kept pouring down, and he didn’t know when it would stop. Now that Wang Tao had joined, he felt they could go hunting in the toxic rain. Given their strength, they could endure half a day in such rain. If they couldn’t deal with the zombie in half a day, that would mean the zombie was too strong, and they’d have to flee…

“Alright.”

Wang Tao nodded.

Then Eldest Lu called over a flamboyantly dressed middle-aged woman to arrange Wang Tao’s accommodation.

Xu Xiaojun, who had been silent all this time, wanted to follow Wang Tao, but was stopped by Eldest Lu.

After Wang Tao left, Eldest Lu eagerly asked Xu Xiaojun:

“Fatty, is this Wang Tao really that strong?”

“Mhm!”

Xu Xiaojun nodded.

“I knew it!”

Eldest Lu was overjoyed.

Xu Xiaojun was an honest person, never one to lie. If someone else claimed that a person was strong, it might just be a compliment. But coming from Xu Xiaojun, it was a fact! It was even possible that Xu Xiaojun had sparred with him!

Eldest Lu continued to inquire about Wang Tao.

Xu Xiaojun didn’t hold back and told him everything he knew.

Upon hearing that Wang Tao killed an Elite Zombie with just a steel rebar, Eldest Lu’s mouth dropped open.

“Could he be an Ability User with a Ranged Attack? That’s fantastic! We’re lacking a proper ranged attack, and he’ll just fill in our gap!”

And when Xu Xiaojun mentioned he gave the red crystal core to Wang Tao, Eldest Lu looked at Xu Xiaojun as if he were looking at an idiot.

He knew, strictly speaking, that the crystal core was Wang Tao’s trophy. But Xu Xiaojun had also suffered a few attacks from the Rush Zombie; didn’t he deserve some credit for his hard work? Couldn’t he have been a bit more shameless?

Moreover, since Wang Tao had given the red crystal core to his girlfriend to play with, it showed he didn’t need it!

“He doesn’t need it, but you do! Our camp does! You could’ve traded it for something else!” ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Watching Eldest Lu’s look of exasperation, Xu Xiaojun scratched his head. He actually wanted that crystal core too; he felt he could assimilate it. But he refrained. After all, it wasn’t his to take.

“Sigh, never mind. You take him later to familiarize with our camp. If we could get him to stay, that would be perfect… I need to figure out what to use to trade for that crystal core in his hands! If I had known earlier that he had a spare crystal core, I would’ve definitely asked for it! Oh, and I need to warn everyone in the camp not to mess with this ‘newbie’…”
