Today, there were far fewer zombies on the road, and those remaining weren’t idly standing around but were instead running chaotically.

Especially when the thunder sounded, they ran around like madmen.

Moreover, Wang Tao saw many Mad Demon Zombies, which were also frantically running around in the rain.

Even when vehicles passed by them, they didn’t even spare a glance.

“It seems the effect of thunder on the zombies is greater than I expected… If this is the case, perhaps we’ll arrive at the urban area sooner,”

Wang Tao was somewhat surprised.

He had originally calculated that they would reach Wuyang City urban area by evening, but looking at the situation now, they might arrive in the afternoon.

In fact, it was almost as Wang Tao had guessed.

Along the way, they hadn’t encountered any trouble, not too many Elite Zombies, nor any Zombie Lords.

Around four o’clock in the afternoon, Wang Tao saw a road sign that read there were only 3 kilometers remaining to the Wuyang City urban area. However, due to the heavy rain and some fog, Wang Tao couldn’t see the state of the urban area clearly.

“Everyone, stay alert, we’re almost there!”

Wang Tao said to the others.

“Yes!”

For the last 3 kilometers, Wang Tao was exceedingly cautious.

After a little time, Wang Tao finally saw high-rise buildings in the distance.

Wuyang City urban area… They had arrived.

Just then, a flash of lightning suddenly appeared, instantly illuminating the overcast sky, the urban area, and a huge and terrifying figure.

“Shit!”

Wang Tao cursed instinctively.

He saw next to a building more than twenty stories high in the distance, there was a huge humanoid zombie almost as tall as the building itself!

It was using its red eyes to peer closely into the exterior glass of the building, as if looking at the situation inside!

Then it thrust its hand violently into the building and rummaged around. It seemed to have grabbed something and stuffed it straight into its mouth.

“Hiss—”

“What is that thing! So terrifying!”

Yang Changhong and the others turned pale with fright when they saw it.

Even Jiang Shixue, who was always fearless, subconsciously grabbed Wang Tao’s hand, her small face utterly serious.

Boom—

The sound of thunder followed, the lightning was but a brief flicker, and the sky once again fell into darkness, with everyone losing sight of the giant zombie. ℝÁ₦ȱʙΕS

“That’s a zombie, a… Level 4, Lord Zombie!”

Wang Tao took a deep breath and said.

[HP: 300,000/300,000]

[Mana: 200,000/200,000]

[Grade: Level 4 – Lord]

[Awakening: Giant]

[Giant: Body size grows without limit, all basic attributes significantly enhanced. The larger the body, the stronger the strength.]

Although he had only seen it for a moment, he had still managed to glimpse the zombie’s stats.

300,000 HP!

200,000 mana!

But what was most important was not these numbers. What was most important was that, after his Level 3 Ascension, Wang Tao could now see awakening attributes!

The giant zombie’s awakening was [Giant], whose attribute description was very simple and didn’t reveal specific numbers, but even a fool could tell it was powerful—

Body size grows without limit!

All basic attributes significantly enhanced!

The larger the body, the stronger the strength!

“So this is the ‘Awakening’ after Level 4…”

Wang Tao murmured to himself, but now was not the time to think about Level 4. He immediately signaled the others to retreat.

“Let’s go, we can’t afford to mess with this zombie!”

Wang Tao felt that for a zombie of this size, HP alone couldn’t define its strength anymore.

He now had 110,000 HP, plus the 100,000 HP from the Entangling Roots, making it 210,000 HP in total. It seemed not far off from this zombie’s 300,000 HP, but Wang Tao didn’t feel he stood the slightest chance!

Because this was no longer an issue of HP! Not to mention other factors, the zombie’s weak spot was its head, but this zombie appeared to be fifty meters tall, and Wang Tao’s attacks couldn’t reach its head at all!

Moreover, it was clearly thick-skinned and burly; even if Wang Tao could hit its head, he probably wouldn’t be able to reduce much of its HP…

Boom~

The two vehicles slammed on the gas and immediately left the road.

Wang Tao’s goal wasn’t to enter the urban area but to find a military base. The approximate location of the military base required passing through half of the city. However, if the city was too dangerous, they definitely couldn’t go through it; instead, they would have to take a detour.

After leaving the area, Wang Tao opened the map and pointed to a location.

“Let’s head there…”

“Okay!”

The vehicles quickly left the road and started to prepare to bypass the urban area. However, the detour was longer than Wang Tao had anticipated, and many abandoned vehicles obstructed the road.

“We won’t make it before dark. Let’s find a place to rest for the night. Keep an eye out for any suitable places…” Wang Tao said to everyone.

“Okay!”

Everyone responded in unison.

“Bang——”

Suddenly, Wang Tao’s ears twitched, and he turned to Yang Changhong beside him.

“Did you hear anything?”

“Other than the rain, I don’t think there were any other sounds…”

Yang Changhong shook his head.

Wang Tao then looked at Jiang Shixue, who nodded.

“It sounded like… gunfire?”

On the wide asphalt road, there was an old, rusted abandoned sedan, inside which sat two figures.

The passenger seat was occupied by an old man in worn military attire, with binoculars hanging from his chest and a knitted hat on his head, his face covered in a white beard.

He rummaged through the glove box and pulled out a yellowed photograph, which depicted a little girl with a bright smile.

Looking at the little girl’s smile, the old man also broke into a grin.

“I have a granddaughter, as cute as the girl in this photo. She always liked to cling to me and ask for bedtime stories…”

The old man said while passing the photo to the driver for a look.

“Hehe…”

The figure in the driver’s seat suddenly lifted its head, revealing a rotten and ferocious face!

But its jaw was missing, and both arms were broken!

It struggled to move closer to the old man, but was tightly restrained by the seatbelt, unable to move.

The old man didn’t look at the ferocious zombie but continued to gaze at the photo and spoke.

“A few months ago, she asked me, ‘Grandpa, are you old?'”

“I said, ‘Yes, I’m old. And someday, you will be old like me, haha!'”

“Then she asked, ‘Grandpa, will you die?'”

“I said, ‘Of course, I will die.'”

“Finally, she asked, ‘Grandpa, will I die too?'”

“Looking at the wound on her arm, brimming with black veins, it was the first time I didn’t know how to answer her question…”

The old man lifted his head and looked at the zombie in the driver’s seat.

“Have you ever explained things to a child? I am ashamed that I didn’t get to explain before she ran away—not died, ran away.”

The old man took a police revolver from behind his waist and aimed it at the forehead of the driver’s seat zombie.

“I will find her, I promise.”

Bang!
