Chapter 560: Chapter 237 Duzhu High School_3
Seeing Wang Tao agree, Fan Peng’s face lit up with joy.
The others were all curious; they wanted to see just how strong these suspected Level 3 ability users really were!
Fan Peng himself drove the car, leading several vehicles away from Duzhu Town Base.
The place he mentioned was in the center of the town, where there was a senior high school. The zombies were inside the high school.
There were virtually no young faces in Duzhu Town except for the high school.
According to Fan Peng, the high school had a closed management system, making it very difficult to leave. When the zombie virus outbreak occurred, classes were in session… so it was quickly overrun.
Afterwards, no survivors dared to enter, and the zombies inside did not come out.
Fan Peng planned to cultivate more ability users for the base, so he set his sights on the zombies in the high school.
He had thought that, with his Level 2 Ability strength, he should be able to lure some zombies out for others to kill. But once he climbed in, he discovered there was an incredibly terrifying zombie inside!
Since he hadn’t seen the materials provided by the military before, he didn’t know what type of zombie this was. Now, after going through Wang Tao’s information, he realized this was probably a Zombie Lord!
Knowing the characteristics of the Zombie Lord, Fan Peng no longer dared to go there alone. If it were only one zombie, he could probably still run away, but if that zombie had a bunch of underlings, then he would be in trouble!
That’s why he asked everyone for help, especially since Wang Tao and his group were Level 3 ability users. With them there, it was definitely going to be a lot safer.
The convoy braved the heavy rain and arrived at the entrance of the high school.
Abandoned vehicles filled the entrance, blocking the road completely, forcing everyone to get out and walk.
Fan Peng distributed to each person one of the heavy umbrellas made by their base. These umbrellas could partially shield against the corrosive acid rain. Although they too would be corroded, the umbrellas were so thick that they could last two to three hours without a problem.
As soon as Wang Tao and his group got out of the car, they immediately drew everyone’s attention.
It couldn’t be helped, aside from Wang Tao, who was holding an umbrella, standing together with Jiang Shixue. Nie Siyan, Xu Xiaojun, and Yang Changhong were all dressed in armor, looking striking and projecting a sense of security.
Especially Xu Xiaojun, who not only wore a set of black armor but also had a shield on his back and a Giant Axe in his hand, exuding an aura of lethal intensity!
As for the Mechanical Exoskeleton on Xu Xiaojun’s body, Wang Tao didn’t let him use it this time. The corrosive acid rain was falling right now, and it would be too much of a loss if it got corroded, because Wang Tao couldn’t repair that gadget…
Looking at the abandoned vehicles at the school gate, Fan Peng sighed and said:
“These were driven by parents who hadn’t been infected, coming to pick up their children when the zombie virus broke out. But by that time, basically everyone in the school had been infected, so…”
At that time, he was also one of the parents who had come to pick up their children.
“So you mean to say that the school has never been opened up to now, the zombies inside have never come out, and you haven’t really gone in?”
Wang Tao asked.
“Yes.”
Upon receiving Fan Peng’s affirmative reply, Wang Tao became immediately interested.
“Let’s go, let’s go in and take a look!”
The school, like other buildings, was also covered with thick green vegetation. It was as if a school had been built in a primitive forest.
Wang Tao used his Plant Affinity Ability to sense, feeling there were many zombies inside, and they were not weak. But he didn’t feel the presence of the Zombie Lord yet, given the school’s large size.
“There are quite a few zombies inside and many of them are Level 2 Zombies. Do you all want to go in with me?”
Wang Tao said to the others.
“There are a lot of Level 2 Zombies?”
The people exclaimed.
They were at most Level 2 themselves, and unlike Wang Tao and his group, they didn’t have the ability to kill above their level. If they encountered a large number of Level 2 Zombies, they would be done for.
However, with a Level 3 ability user present… It’d be a pity not to seize this opportunity!
“I’ll go with Mr. Wang!”
Fan Peng was the first to declare.
Unlike others, who were outsiders and could leave at any moment,
Fan Peng was the leader of Duzhu Town Base, which they couldn’t just pack up and move.
If those Level 2 Zombies broke out of the school gates, it might be his base that would be out of luck.
He hoped that Level 2 Zombies would appear, so that he could hunt them for their Crystal Cores. But he didn’t want too many of them to appear. After all, his base was weak and comprised mostly of middle-aged and elderly people with poor fighting capabilities.
He needed to assess the strength of these Level 2 Zombies. If he could kill one more, it would lessen the risk to his base and at the same time, he would gain some Crystal Cores.
Moreover, he clearly felt that Wang Tao was only interested in that suspected Level 3 Lord zombie. He couldn’t expect Wang Tao to help kill these zombies, so he had to try to do it himself as much as possible.
Seeing Fan Peng step forward, the others hesitated for a moment, and eventually all decided to go in together.
With a Level 3 ability user backing them up, it was a rare opportunity. If they didn’t seize it, they would surely regret it later!
“Great.”
Wang Tao was quite satisfied. He definitely couldn’t kill all these zombies, and he didn’t feel like doing so. Letting these people kill the zombies would resolve the danger in Duzhu Town and allow them to benefit as well. It was a win-win situation.
Then Wang Tao said to Xu Xiaojun:
“You go and open up the main gate. We’ll enter from the front entrance.”
The main gate and the surrounding walls of Duzhu High School had been heightened, reportedly because many boarding students used to climb over the walls to go to Internet cafes at night. Not even the night-duty teachers catching them or the installation of surveillance cameras could stop them. So the school simply decided to raise the walls and gate of the school grounds, preventing the students from climbing out. But since then, students secretly referred to the school as Duzhu Prison because the high walls and gates looked too much like a prison…
“Okay!”
With an agreement, Xu Xiaojun promptly moved to the gate. Then, swinging the Giant Axe, to the astonishment of onlookers, he hacked open the iron gate in just a few blows.
