“Let me see—this isn’t too serious?! It’s quite severe!” After briefly examining the wound, the doctor exclaimed in shock.

Wang Tao saw that not only did Wei Zhen Guo have an injury on his thigh, but he also had many other wounds on his body. His face was pale, and his HP was badly depleted, only at [132/635]. He didn’t have any mana, but he did have a hidden attribute.

[Hidden Attribute: Sacrificial Dedication]

[Sacrificial Dedication: The more people who are sacrificed, the more one’s potential is stimulated]

Wei Zhen Guo’s high HP limit of over six hundred took Wang Tao by surprise, since he himself only had just over a thousand. Moreover, his hidden attribute was quite interesting-a battle-related attribute, but it required the sacrifice of teammates…

As for the other soldiers, they all had around 300 HP, with no mana and no hidden attributes.

The doctor, following by Wei Zhen Guo’s side, spoke with some concern:

“Squad Leader Wei, we’ve run out of anesthesia, you…”

“Hey! Who needs anesthesia? Just give me a cigarette and that’s fine!”

Wei Zhen Guo said with an assertive tone.

“Alright! Who has a cigarette?”

“I don’t, do any of you have cigarettes?”

“I don’t either…”

Several soldiers shook their heads.

“Who has a cigarette? I’ll borrow two and pay you back later!”

The doctor called out to the others in the hall.

Cigarettes were a prized commodity in the base, and nobody had any to spare.

If they had them, they’d be smoked already.

“Forget it, forget it. No cigarettes, it’s fine—hiss—”

Wei Zhen Guo quickly gestured with his hand but winced as he inadvertently aggravated his wound, causing his face to turn even whiter.

just then, Wang Tao stepped forward through the crowd and pulled out a brand new, unopened pack of cigarettes from his pocket.

“I have some, want them?”

Wei Zhen Guo’s eyes lit up at the sight of the cigarettes. Then he looked at Wang Tao, and his gaze intensified.

Since the apocalypse began, it was the first time he had seen someone even more robust than himself.

Upon seeing that Wang Tao had cigarettes, the doctor quickly said:

“Yes, yes, yes! I’ll pay you back later!”

As Wang Tao was about to toss the cigarettes to him, the stretcher-bound Wei

Zhen Guo suddenly said:

“Comrade, care to have a chat?”

After a brief moment of thought, Wang Tao agreed.

“Okay.”

He followed the crowd into the medical room, while two soldiers stayed at the door to stand guard.

The medical room was large, with more than ten beds, but there wasn’t much in the way of medical equipment. It didn’t look very professional.

“Comrade, are you new here?” 𝔣𝔯𝖊𝔢𝖜𝔢𝔟𝖓𝖔𝔳𝔢𝖑.𝔠𝖔𝔪

“Yeah.”

Wang Tao tossed the cigarettes to a soldier by Wei Zhen Guo’s side. The soldier caught it and noticed that the pack was brand new and unopened-not a trace of blood, not even dust on it.

The soldier quickly tore it open, took a cigarette in his mouth, lit it, and then placed it into Wei Zhen Guo’s mouth.

“Hiss—refreshing!”

Wei Zhen Guo took a deep drag, and his pale complexion seemed to regain a bit of color.

He looked at Wang Tao, coughed, and laughed heartily.

“Cough cough, my name is Wei Zhen Guo, welcome to Suize Survivor Base!”

“Hello, I’m Wang Tao.”

Wang Tao nodded calmly and confidently.

Spurred by curiosity, Wei Zhen Guo asked.

“Comrade, where do you come from? You must not be from nearby, right?” Ever since the apocalypse began, Wei Zhen Guo had been active in this area and had seen many survivors. If he had seen someone with Wang Tao’s build before, he would certainly remember.

“Happy Community.”

Since they were about to leave Happy Community anyway, Wang Tao did not hide it.

“Happy Community is five or six kilometers from here! It must not have been easy coming all this way, right?”

In the post-apocalyptic world, even a single kilometer could be an insurmountable distance for many people. Five or six kilometers was often enough to cost them their lives several times over.

“It was indeed no easy feat, and we even encountered a special zombie…”

Wang Tao spoke as if casually bringing it up.

Hearing this, Wei Zhenguo’s eyes widened abruptly.

“A special zombie? What kind of special zombie?”

The few soldiers immediately turned their gaze to Wang Tao, and even the doctor treating Wei Zhenguo unconsciously looked up at Wang Tao.

Wang Tao instantly understood. It seemed that these people had likely encountered special zombies, and perhaps even seen a Zombie Core.

“It was a misshapen one, an Attacker that could rush…

Wang Tao described the appearance of the Attacker simply.

As a result, the soldiers exchanged glances, looking at each other in dismay.

Wei Zhenguo’s face immediately showed anger.

“I was sent flying by a zombie like that one, maybe it was even the same one we came across!”

Wang Tao was somewhat surprised, yet it seemed to make sense to him. The Attacker he encountered had numerous bullet wounds, which could have been inflicted by Wei Zhenguo and his team.

“That thing was really tough…”

Wei Zhenguo sighed and then recounted what had happened to them earlier.

Wei Zhenguo and his team set out yesterday morning to scavenge for supplies, proceeding with extreme caution and without encountering any danger. But during a supermarket raid, they suddenly ran into that Attacker. If they had been prepared in advance, they weren’t afraid of an Attacker, because after all, how could a zombie be stronger than a bullet?

However, the Attacker burst through a wall, charging in from the adjoining room.

Wei Zhenguo was unlucky and got hit head-on by the Attacker, being knocked away.

Direct frontal assaults from the Attacker, something even Wang Tao with his HP wouldn’t dare to withstand, let alone Wei Zhenguo who had even less HP than him.

If it weren’t for Wei Zhenguo having killed many zombies, substantially enhancing his physical abilities, plus the Attacker having shattered a wall, diminishing its charging force… If it had been someone else, they’d likely have met their demise.

Although Wei Zhenguo withstood the charge, the space was too confined; he got cornered by the zombies, and the other soldiers dared not fire indiscriminately. He got hammered by the zombies a few times, losing half his life in an instant…

At the crucial moment, Wei Zhenguo, enduring the pain, drew his pistol at his waist and hit the Attacker’s head.

The Attacker subconsciously used its thick arm to block the bullets, releasing its grip on him.

Wei Zhenguo seized the opportunity to hide to the side, and then the soldiers began to unleash a barrage of fire.

The Attacker, possessing some wisdom or perhaps retaining human instincts, chose to flee in the face of such firepower.

The soldiers couldn’t see the HP bar; they didn’t know how much HP the Attacker had left. And with Wei Zhenguo lying on the side, they gave up the chase, hurriedly carrying Wei Zhenguo, preparing to evacuate, especially with such loud gunshots!

Who would have thought that outside, a group of zombies capable of running and climbing walls suddenly appeared!

The threat posed by these zombies, which they named “mad demons,” was even greater than the Attacker. The Attacker was just one, which could be „ eliminated with concentrated fire. But there were too many “mad demons,” and with ordinary zombies closing in, they dared not engage. They had to retreat quickly.

The way back was blocked by zombies, and they didn’t dare lead so many zombies to the base, so they ran to a small, previously built backup camp to hide for a night.

However, the zombies outside didn’t really disperse, and it wasn’t until this afternoon that they finally found a chance to leave…

“Ah, what a pity. It would have been great to kill that Attacker-the name for that type of zombie. There are some good things inside a zombie!”

Wei Zhenguo smacked his lips, his face full of regret.

“What good things?”

Wang Tao asked knowingly.

Wei Zhenguo glanced at Wang Tao, took a deep breath of his cigarette, and then said:

“Zombie Cores, these special zombies carry a Zombie Core inside! If a human consumes this thing, they gain an Ability and become an Ability User!”

“An Ability User?” “That’s right! The very kind of Ability User you’re thinking of!

Wei Zhenguo affirmed immediately, as if knowing what Wang Tao was thinking.

“DO we have any Ability Users at our base? What’s the treatment for Ability Users?”

Wang Tao asked curiously.

“We currently don’t have any Ability Users at our base, but I’ve seen one! As for the treatment…”

Wei Zhenguo paused for a moment, then said earnestly.

“If someone becomes an Ability User, they can be directly promoted to become the eighth member of the committee-that’s something the seven of us on the committee discussed!”

Wang Tao was taken aback and then decisively said.

“I am an Ability User..”
