Chapter 397: Chapter 183: Synthesizing Abilities Again_2
Aside from the person focusing on driving, everyone else was watching to see what Wang Tao would do.
Then they saw the sunroof of Wang Tao’s car open, and his sister Jiang Shixue suddenly exposed her upper body.
“Could she also be a formidable Ability User?”
Everyone felt a bit incredulous.
However, Jiang Shixue didn’t make many movements but suddenly took out a flashlight and shone it at the Night Demon on top of car number 4.
Swoosh—
A thick purple light appeared, enveloping the Night Demon’s entire body.
“Roar—”
The skin of the Night Demon was instantly burned, and it instinctively covered its face with its arms. The moment its arms left the car, it fell straight down.
Bang!
The Night Demon tumbled a few times on the ground and disappeared from view.
Jiang Shixue, still holding the ultraviolet flashlight, shone it at the other following Night Demons.
The bodies of these Night Demons emitted sizzling and crackling burning noises. Although they didn’t lose much HP, their steps were halted. As the convoy was moving at full speed, after a moment, the Night Demons were no longer seen.
“All right, we’ve shaken them off.”
Wang Tao’s voice came through the walkie-talkie.
“Phew—”
Yang Changhong and others all sighed with relief.
It was their first encounter with Night Demons, and although they hadn’t engaged directly, the oppressive feeling just now was the most powerful they had seen among zombies!
At the time, they all thought the people in car number 4 were doomed, but thankfully, Wang Tao took action!
They had seen the news about Night Demon Zombies in the guidebook and knew that they feared sunlight. But they didn’t expect the ultraviolet flashlight to have such a great effect, completely holding back the Night Demon Zombies!
“Thank you, Brother Wang! Thank you, Brother Wang!”
The people in car number 4 were still a bit unsettled as they kept expressing their thanks.
“Everyone, pay attention. If more Night Demon Zombies come, don’t panic, wait for me.”
“Okay!”
With Wang Tao present, everyone felt a full sense of security.
Yang Changhong also thanked Wang Tao separately and inquired about where he got the ultraviolet light, which was so effective against the Night Demons.
Wang Tao had obtained it from killing a Night Demon Zombie, but of course, he didn’t tell the truth; instead, he said it was from a supply drop.
This left Yang Changhong somewhat helpless, feeling unlucky for not encountering such a supply drop.
There was no immediate danger nearby, but the convoy didn’t stop.
After all, no one knew if the zombie horde would come from behind; it was safer to move further away.
From night until dawn, driving until the sky turned pale with the first light of morning, the various noises of the night slowly ceased. People finally relaxed.
After being on edge all night, everyone felt a bit weary. Yang Changhong suggested:
“Wang Tao, let’s take a break, shall we? Their mental state isn’t very good.”
Knowing Wang Tao’s strength, Yang Changhong would seek Wang Tao’s opinion before doing anything.
“Sure,”
Wang Tao nodded. The three of them didn’t really care, especially for him and Jiang Shixue, this level of chase was nothing at all.
But it definitely wasn’t the same for others; driving while fatigued was unwise.
They all surveyed the surroundings; this was a county town, and their location was on the outer ring.
The group entered the county town and found an abandoned old residential area.
The community wasn’t large, much like the Happy Community Wang Tao used to live in, with only a few buildings. Several buildings were sealed off, which might have zombies inside, but they couldn’t get out.
Yang Changhong had people scout it out to ensure there was no immediate danger, and then they started to set up camp in the courtyard of the community.
Their belongings were not complicated; they cared only for sufficiency. Of course, defense facilities were the exception, as they could not be neglected.
Noticing a small supermarket nearby, Wang Tao took Jiang Shixue and Xu Xiaojun to have a look inside. Although the supermarket had been looted once, some items were left behind.
Wang Tao brought these items back, which amounted to providing a supplemented meal.
“We really owe you this time; otherwise, who knows how many of us could have made it here…”
Yang Changhong said to Wang Tao with a grateful face.
To tell the truth, this was her first major crisis without losing anyone… Her previous team actually had many people, but they dwindled during successive crises, leaving only these dozen or so.
If it weren’t for Wang Tao, this time they would have lost at least two or three people at the least, and at most… they might all have been unable to escape!
After all, there were over a dozen Level 3 Night Demons in the zombie horde.
“No need to be polite,” Wang Tao shook his head, then asked, “Have you synthetized the Spittle Nail Crystal Core?”
“I have.”
Yang Changhong voluntarily demonstrated for Wang Tao.
She could store a portion of whatever food she ate inside her body. She wasn’t clear about where exactly it was stored, but it was within her. Moreover, she could control which foods to store and which not to.
However, the hardness of these foods affected the power of the projectiles she spat out.
For instance, if she ate something like bread, the projectiles she spat out had fairly low power.
Therefore, she came up with a method—she directly swallowed a nail!
As it turned out… it worked!
Wang Tao watched Yang Changhong spit out a nail, directly nailing it into the wall; he was somewhat astonished. This Yang Changhong was really fierce!
Daring to eat nails, if something went wrong, it would be troublesome… but now, it was a “true·Spittle Nail.” A nail with every spit!
“Fierce!”
