Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot - Chapter 562

Chapter 562: Chapter 238 Ghost Claw Zombie_2

“Wang Tao, it’s in here—I feel a very powerful presence! I have the sensation of being watched!”

Yang Changhong was waiting outside the door for Wang Tao.

The higher the level of an ability user, the more acute their senses. The powerful presence she perceived should not be mistaken.

“Let’s go inside and take a look.”

Wang Tao activated Entangling Roots, and in the blink of an eye, he had transformed into a “monster.”

Yang Changhong had seen my “transformation” before, but even now, she was still amazed.

The reason Wang Tao was so cautious was that this library had no plants at all.

This campus was full of plants, including many inside the teaching buildings, but this place was devoid of them, which was clearly strange. So it was better to be cautious.

The group followed Wang Tao inside.

The design of the library was quite good, with ample lighting. Without the obstruction of plants, one could see clearly inside even on overcast and rainy days.

The first floor was a mess, with lots of coagulated black bloodstains on the floor, but no bodies. This was normal; in areas with many zombies, bodies would not be left behind—they either mutated upon infection or were completely devoured by zombies. There was no third possibility.

They arrived at the second floor.

The second floor was much cleaner and had no zombies.

The third and fourth floors were also zombie-free. Moreover, the bookshelves and everything else were neat and orderly, with no signs of being disturbed. Probably no survivors had come here. However, many books were missing, and many shelves were empty.

The library had a total of five floors, with no basement. If the first four floors were fine, then the problem might be on the top floor.

Wang Tao proceeded to the top floor with great caution.

“Hmm?”

The situation on the fifth floor surprised Wang Tao.

It was quite empty, although there were some bookshelves, they were devoid of books.

Wang Tao and his companions continued walking further inside.

“Someone’s here!”

In the open hall before them was a chair, and on this chair sat a slender figure from behind!

Wang Tao had encountered many zombie “surprise attacks,” so he naturally didn’t think much of this figure, especially with the conspicuous red HP bar above its head.

[HP: 60000/60000]

[Mana: 60000/60000]

[Grade: Level 3 – Lord]

A White Bone Knife appeared instantly in Wang Tao’s hands.

Although he was now Level 3, even when hunting a rabbit, a lion must use all its strength!

At that moment, the zombie turned around.

“Hiss—”

Wang Tao couldn’t help but draw in a breath of cold air when he saw the face of the zombie.

For it was truly a beauty!

This was a beauty wearing a white shirt, a black pencil skirt, black silk high heels, with a figure featuring a golden ratio, a perfect face, and intelligent glasses!

“Huh?”

Yang Changhong and the others exclaimed in surprise as well.

They had all prepared themselves mentally, but who could have expected this to actually be a beauty?

The beauty was holding a book and looked at them with slightly furrowed brows, as if she were disturbed by their arrival and interrupted from her reading.

“Could it be that this isn’t a zombie?”

Nie Siyan asked in surprise.

This didn’t look like a zombie at all!

Wang Tao was also puzzled. He wasn’t questioning whether the other party was a zombie—it was obvious given the red health bar. He was wondering how this zombie managed to do this.

Was it an illusion?

But it was only a Level 3, Lord, not a Level 4. Could it create such an illusion?

Wang Tao had encountered a Black Mist Monster before that could create illusions, a Level 3, Lord, but he could easily distinguish the real from the fake.

Yet with this zombie, Wang Tao couldn’t see any flaws.

At this moment, Jiang Shixue raised her head to look at the group and then said to Wang Tao somewhat strangely:

“Brother, do you like such an ugly zombie?”

“You can see its true form?”

Wang Tao immediately asked.

Jiang Shixue did not answer right away, but instead tilted her head thoughtfully, and then her eyes emitted a burst of red light.

“Ah!”

The woman in front suddenly cried out while covering her face, as if she were in great pain.

Then, she raised her head again, revealing a rotting countenance.

At the same time, her head enlarged slightly, and her voluptuous body began to wither and decay. Especially her thin hands quickly grew sharp black nails like ghost claws.

“…”

What was going on?

Wang Tao was baffled, but now was not the time to be confused. The Ghost Claw Zombie, having its true form exposed, seemed to be enraged and immediately lunged at Jiang Shixue.

Wang Tao saw only a blur before the zombie appeared in front of Jiang Shixue, clawing wildly at her.

“Such speed!”

Wang Tao swung his knife out of instinct.

Bang!

[-2034]

[57966/60000]

The Ghost Claw Zombie was cut by the knife, losing two thousand HP.

“Such high defense!”

With Wang Tao being Level 3, his attack on a Level 3 zombie would normally cost at least five thousand HP with one strike. But this had only removed two thousand, indicating the high defense of this zombie.

The Ghost Claw Zombie was also quite strong; Wang Tao felt his hand go numb. But since it was lightweight, he managed to send it flying with a single blow. The others immediately followed up with more strikes.

[-945]

[-1043]

[-923]

[-821]

[54234/60000]

“This damage…”

If Fan Peng and the others were here, it would be questionable whether they could even break through this zombie’s defense.

However, it was fortunate that there were so many Level 3 ability users on Wang Tao’s side; they were not at a disadvantage.

After being attacked several more times, the Ghost Claw Zombie seemed even angrier and vanished from its spot in a flash.
