Chapter 704: Chapter 285: Chainsaw Zombies_3
And now, had he just blocked six attacks from the Chainsaw Zombie? Six hits had cost him 30 Durability points, that is, 5 Durability points per hit!
Wang Tao retracted what he had just said; he should not have underestimated the Chainsaw Zombie—that thing was too fierce! This was a Level 4 Shield with +100 defensive power!
“Little Xue, the attack power of this Chainsaw Zombie is too high, don’t go over there at any cost.”
Wang Tao reminded Jiang Shixue, who was not far away, once again.
Jiang Shixue nodded. She was well aware of her own limits, knowing that she was no match for the Chainsaw Zombie, so she wouldn’t rashly rush over; helping Wang Tao to clear the ordinary zombies around was enough.
The Chainsaw Zombie, spinning like a top gone wild, would shred anything it touched—including buildings and other zombies!
For a moment, it seemed as though the Chainsaw Zombie had even started a small tornado!
However, when the Chainsaw Zombie was spinning, its speed was not fast, at least not as fast as before, and Wang Tao could easily dodge its attacks.
But watching the path the Chainsaw Zombie was taking, Wang Tao internally voiced his concern.
Whether intentional or not, it was heading straight for the base!
Though the high walls of the base looked sturdy, thinking of the Chainsaw Zombie’s Awakening description “Cutting: Attacks come with a Cutting Attribute,” and recalling the 30 Durability lost from his own Level 4 Shield, Wang Tao felt that the high walls might not hold it off!
If it couldn’t be held off and the high wall was breached with a large cut… it had to be stopped!
Wang Tao originally planned to wait until it stopped spinning to make his move. After all, the Chainsaw Zombie wasn’t as fast while spinning, and it couldn’t hit him.
But plans seldom match changes. Better safe than sorry— if it really did break through the high wall, there would be no repairing it.
Wang Tao hurled a Shockwave at the Chainsaw Zombie and fired an Air Bullet.
Wang Tao had wanted to save an Awakening, but facing the Chainsaw Zombie’s Spinning Top State, his Ranged Attacks were ineffective. Melee attacks were a bit risky, so for safety, he had to go all out!
Flames blazed up around Wang Tao.
In a flash of light, Wang Tao stood in front of the Chainsaw Zombie.
He lifted his Flame Long Sword high with both hands and struck the still spinning Chainsaw Zombie.
Although the strike caused no damage, the Chainsaw Zombie was sent flying, and its Spinning Top State was broken by Wang Tao!
The Chainsaw Zombie smashed through several houses!
Wang Tao shimmered and followed into the building. The dust in the air did not affect his Perception.
He located the Chainsaw Zombie. Seizing the moment before it could get up, he struck it with another blow.
His sword hit solidly on the Chainsaw Zombie’s head, and with the Bleeding and Burn Damage, it nearly caused thirty thousand damage in one hit!
The Chainsaw Zombie, now ablaze, let out an angry roar and then turned tail and fled, with an incredible speed!
Zombies above the level of a Lord have some rudimentary intelligence, at least they know when to run if they’re outmatched.
But with Wang Tao having awakened his power, naturally he wouldn’t let it get away.
Wang Tao directly threw his Flame Long Sword in his hand.
The Flame Long Sword struck right into the Chainsaw Zombie’s head!
The HP bar of the Chainsaw Zombie dropped to zero!
If it hadn’t run away, Wang Tao might still have had to put in some effort to kill it. After all, the chainsaw it wielded was quite peculiar and could block Wang Tao’s attacks.
But it fled and even showed its back to Wang Tao. That was simply begging for death.
When using Starfire Prairie, it consumes 10 points of Awakening Energy per second, but it starts at 100 points of energy, meaning Wang Tao had to use it for at least ten seconds.
The speed at which he just killed the Chainsaw Zombie was very fast, and there were still three seconds left before the ten seconds were up.
Wang Tao didn’t start collecting the spoils immediately; instead, he rushed into the horde of zombies and released shockwaves like crazy.
The area beneath the high wall instantly turned into a sea of fire!
Countless zombies were shattered and burnt to death.
By the time the flames on Wang Tao died down, there were no zombies left standing around him.
“Pretty exhilarating…”
Awakening abilities are captivating.
But they consume too much energy, and Wang Tao didn’t dare use it recklessly. It could only be a trump card.
Wang Tao walked out of the sea of fire and approached the Chainsaw Zombie.
The chainsaw from the Chainsaw Zombie was named, which made Wang Tao grin as he picked up all the dropped loot and then returned to the top of the high wall with Jiang Shixue.
Seeing Wang Tao climb up using the Iron Tree Vines, Lan Yulian, Ding Yuqin, Wei Zhenguo, and the others came to Wang Tao’s side, visibly shocked.
“Was that flame just now your Awakening?”
“That’s too powerful! We haven’t killed as many zombies as you did, and you even killed a Level 4 Zombie Lord!”
Everyone was full of admiration.
Wang Tao had told them about the need for Awakening to ascend to Level 4, and that his Awakening involved fire. But aside from the few who had previously joined him to hunt Four-level Zombies, the others had never seen what Wang Tao’s Awakening looked like. After all, Awakening Energy is precious and can’t be wasted recklessly.
Now having seen with their own eyes how Wang Tao descended like a fire god and burned all the zombies beneath this wall to ashes, the scene was breathtakingly badass!
Wang Tao said with a smile:
“You guys will be able to awaken too sooner or later, and you could even be stronger than me.”
The others shook their heads.
They weren’t even pondering an Awakening more powerful than Wang Tao’s; they would be willing to take even a lousy Awakening, as long as they could ascend to Level 4…
After the death of this Chainsaw Zombie, the zombies’ attacks instantly became disorganized.
The pressure everyone felt greatly decreased.
Wang Tao didn’t leave the high wall, just in case other Four-level Zombies appeared, and he took the opportunity to check the spoils of battle.
