Chapter 179: Chapter 111 Please do me a favor_3

At night, when he returned to Li Qiuyu’s villa, Wang Tao discovered two Elite Zombies surrounding the villa, they were Screamers and Stubborn!
Seeing the Stubborn, Wang Tao’s eyes lit up.
He had only encountered a Stubborn once, and it felt like they were quite rare.
This Screamer only had 1000 HP, its health was consistently low. However, to be safe, Wang Tao did not make a move himself but let Han Rui take it down with long-distance sniping.
Whoosh—
An arrow shot out.
The Screamer was instantly killed.
Wang Tao asked Han Rui to retrieve the Screamer’s Zombie Core while he charged directly at the Stubborn.
The Stubborn were surely one of the least threatening zombies, with weak attack power and slow attack speed. Anyone capable of breaking its defense could grind it to death, of course, assuming no other zombies were around.
Around this particular Stubborn, there was a group of Ordinary Zombies. Without dealing with these Ordinary Zombies first, the Stubborn could not be taken down.
After running over, Wang Tao directly chopped at one of the Ordinary Zombies with his axe.
Squish!
[-1000]
[-1000]

A group of Ordinary Zombies was simultaneously killed by the Shockwave.
Without even looking, Wang Tao immediately charged at the Stubborn.
Bang!

[3000/3000]
With one strike of the axe, the Stubborn only lost a little over forty HP.
“…Progress!”
Wang Tao could only comfort himself like this.
After all, the last time he attacked a Stubborn, one strike of the axe resulted in only around twenty HP loss. Now, it was over forty, the damage had doubled—that was quite a significant improvement!
With no other zombies to interfere, Wang Tao could unleash his full strength.
After a frenzied bout of chopping,
the Stubborn was finally taken down with a headshot by Wang Tao.

While prying out the Zombie Core, Wang Tao also collected the spoils of war.
[Obtained: Stubborn chest armor Blueprint xi]
[Obtained: Defense potion X2]
Surprised by the loot, Wang Tao had not expected another Stubborn chest armor to drop. He already had one, so maybe he could give it to Han Rui. After all, she was always hunting zombies outside, and it was quite dangerous. After storing the loot, Wang Tao then looked at the Crystal Core dropped by the
Stubborn.
[Level 1 Crystal Core ? Toughness]
[Quality: Excellent (80°/o)]
[Purity: 50% (Side effects: darkening of the skin, body stiffening)]
This was a Red crystal core, and Wang Tao happened to have a White Rank copper skin and iron bones.
He could now synthesize an Orange Epic copper skin and iron bones!
Wang Tao was a bit excited. He had merged the shockwave crystal core several times already, but Toughness and Precision Shooting had only been merged once; this was finally another opportunity to merge.
After collecting the items, Wang Tao and Han Rui made another round around the villa to make sure there were no other zombies, then they returned to the villa.
Li Qiuyu had been watching from the balcony and hurriedly opened the door when she saw them coming.
“Thank you both!”
By clearing the zombies around, Wang Tao was also helping her out.
“No need to thank us. We’ll be troubling you for the next few days.”
Han Rui said with a smile.
“Of course, no problem.”
First nodding, Li Qiuyu then glanced at Wang Tao and looked somewhat hesitant to speak.
“What’s up?”
Wang Tao asked, a bit curious.
“Ahem, seeing how powerful you guys are… I’d like to ask you a favor…”
The scene of Wang Tao killing a swath of zombies with a single axe strike was still vivid in her mind. She always knew Ability Users were formidable, but this was the first time she felt their might so directly.
So she wanted to ask Wang Tao for a favor.
“What favor?”
Although the person asking was a beauty, Wang Tao was not about to agree carelessly. He disliked making promises lightly, because he took promises very seriously.
Li Qiuyu’s face showed a touch of sorrow.
“I don’t know how long I can hold out, I…”
Saying this, Li Qiuyu took off the necklace hanging from her neck and handed it to Wang Tao.
It was a very delicate heart-shaped necklace.
“This was given to me by my daughter, Little Xue, on my birthday… I’d like to ask you, if you get the chance to see my daughter, please give her this necklace and tell her I love her a lot…”
Although Li Qiuyu had been steadfast in waiting for her daughter at home, she also understood the dangers of the apocalypse and was not clear on how much longer she could hold out.
Moreover, she felt that even if her daughter was still alive, it would be improbable for her to see her for one last time…
“Okay. If she’s still alive, and I happen to encounter her…” Wang Tao took the necklace which still retained a bit of warmth.
He felt that the chances of Li Qiuyu’s daughter still being alive were very slim. After all, the daughter was in the mountains, which might be even more dangerous than the cities… But Wang Tao didn’t say much, as this was Li Qiuyu’s pillar for survival; it wasn’t for him to crush her spirits.
“I really can’t thank you enough!”
Li Qiuyu seemed immensely grateful as soon as Wang Tao agreed.
“You’re being too polite.”
After all, it wasn’t like Wang Tao had to actively search for her daughter; such a simple task was no problem for him.
“Oh, my daughter’s name is Jiang Shixue, and here is her picture…”
It seemed something occurred to Li Qiuyu, and she quickly fetched a photo from her room.
The photo showed a youthful and lively beautiful girl in a JK uniform, with a slight resemblance to Li Qiuyu.
“Alright.”
After resting one more night at Li Qiuyu’s house, the next morning, Wang Tao continued to go out hunting zombies.
That day, while Wang Tao was hunting zombies outside, he suddenly received a message from the base.
“Commissioner Wang! Commissioner Wei is looking for you, please return to the base as soon as you receive this message!
“Hmm? Okay!”
There was a message from the base!
Wang Tao immediately drove his vehicle towards the base..
