Doomsday: I can see the health bar, kill monsters and drop treasure.

Chapter 615 Hidden Zombie Lord
After clearing out the zombies in the research institute, Wang Tao and his team began to look for research materials.

Not to mention the data on the Progenitor virus, even other data is extremely scarce. There are not many paper materials left, and all the computers are scrapped... Through a suicide note, Wang Tao roughly understood the situation here.

When the apocalypse broke out, the people in this institute were unlucky. Someone inside was infected, and the entire institute was almost wiped out. Although a few survivors survived, they did not survive for more than three days and eventually died. This suicide note was left by one of the survivors... So they had no time to study the zombie virus.

"Ugh……"

Wang Tao sighed.

I feel sorry for these researchers, but I am also disappointed that I couldn't find the data I needed.

But it's not a big problem. Even if he didn't find the data of the Protoss virus, he gained a lot along the way, so it was not a wasted trip.

"Let's go to the next place before it gets dark."

"it is good!"

Everyone rode on the golden eagle and headed to the next location again.

Qu Shilin had given Wang Tao a map before, which marked the specific locations of some well-known domestic laboratories, research institutes, large hospitals and other scientific research institutions, and also thoughtfully planned the route. Wang Tao just had to search from near to far.

With so many places, there must be some data on the Progenitor virus, right? After all, they found it in the first laboratory they went to, plus the one they got at Shuize County Hospital at the beginning, there are already two copies. This shows that someone must have studied the Progenitor virus, and it depends on whether the data can be preserved.

……

"There are more and more zombies..."

Above the sky, Han Rui frowned as she looked at the group of corpses below.

They also took this road when they came, but there weren't so many zombies before. In less than half a day, a swarm of thousands of zombies appeared.

"Damn it! Where did all these zombies hide before? When it was snowing, zombies were almost invisible. They were as rare as protected animals. It took a lot of effort to hunt zombies... But now that the ice and snow have melted and the weather has warmed up, these zombies are like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, everywhere..."

Xiang Hongbin's words were immediately echoed by everyone.

"Yeah! It feels like there are more zombies now than before the heavy snow..."

"This reminds me of the time when the apocalypse came...but the strength of these zombies now is much more terrifying than the zombies at the beginning of the apocalypse!"

"Maybe zombies have other ways to increase their numbers besides biting people? Like giving birth to babies?"

"It shouldn't be possible...right?"

"...It's hard to say. We have seen all kinds of strange things in the apocalypse. Maybe zombies can really give birth to children... Didn't Wang Tao say before that those giant zombies and night demon zombies would produce offspring through other ordinary zombies... Then it doesn't seem strange that zombies can give birth to children..."

Wang Tao did not participate in the discussion. He looked at the group of zombies carefully and after confirming that there were no zombies above the sixth-order lord level, he did not let the golden eagle stay.

Only zombies above level six lords are worth his effort, otherwise it would be a waste of time. He still has to look for data on the Progenitor Virus.

By the time Wang Tao and his team arrived at the third target location, it was already night. It was not because Wang Tao and his team were slow, but because they encountered two zombie groups on the way, each of which contained a sixth-level lord zombie. In order to deal with them, they wasted some time.

“Hiss—so many zombies!”

The third location is a hospital. This hospital is very famous in the country and Wang Tao had often seen it in the news before.

At this time, the hospital had become a zombie den. From a distance, one could see a large number of level 5 and 6 zombies outside the hospital, in the yard, and on the rooftops. Moreover, these zombies were basically elite zombies, with very few ordinary zombies!
This reminded Wang Tao of the situation in the hospital in Shuize County when he was there before. The zombies in places like hospitals are generally stronger than those in other places...

The zombies in front of us are not in a disorderly and chaotic state. It is obvious that they are moving according to certain rules.

"There is at least a sixth-level lord here, so there must be no disaster-level zombies..."

Wang Tao actually didn’t like the large number of zombies at the mission site. He himself wasn’t afraid, but he was afraid that the survivors here would die early and leave no useful information...

But now that we are here, we still have to search this hospital carefully.

"Everyone get ready! These zombies are handed over to you. You attack first. I'll wait for the lord zombie to come out."

"it is good!"

The golden eagle flew directly to the hospital gate, dropped Ding Yuqin and her group off, and then flew into the sky with only Wang Tao.

"Roar--"

The appearance of the golden eagle instantly attracted the attention of a large number of zombies. Even though the golden eagle had already flown into the sky, the zombies still roared and rushed towards the gate.

Although the golden eagle left, it left behind a lot of delicious food. The zombies could clearly feel that they would evolve after eating these delicious foods! So they naturally would not let it go, and rushed towards Ding Yuqin and others like a cat smelling fish.

Seeing the horde of zombies rushing towards them, no one was afraid.

Lin Meng added a blessing status to everyone. Everyone gripped their weapons tightly and rushed towards the group of zombies.

The battle begins instantly!
Countless broken limbs flew out, and a large number of zombies died at the first sight. However, the zombies did not know what fear was, and they still continued to pounce on the crowd like moths to a flame.

Of course, zombies are not moths, and Ding Yuqin and the others are not fire. Facing thousands of zombies, if they are not careful, they will fall. So they are all very serious and alert to avoid accidents.

After Wang Tao made sure that everyone was fine, he stopped paying attention and stared inside the hospital, looking for the sixth-level lord zombie.

"Where is it? Let me look for it... Oh? You couldn't hold your temper and came out on your own?"

Wang Tao originally thought that this zombie would be the old Yinbi type, but he didn't expect that the other party was not hiding too deep. He walked out of a building directly and walked towards Ding Yuqin and others.

This zombie is over 1.7 meters tall, wearing a muddy white coat, and walking crookedly. It looks no different from an ordinary zombie. But its strength is completely incomparable to that of an ordinary zombie.

[Health Volume: 1000000/1000000]

[Blue amount: 1000000/1000000]

[Level: Level 6·Lord]

[Awakening: Stealth Assault]

[Status: Hidden]

[Hidden attack: When not in combat, the player will be in a hidden state (hidden: hiding one's own aura, making it difficult for other creatures to detect it). In the hidden state, the player's attack and defense power will be greatly improved.]

"Hmm?" After seeing the zombie's movements and attributes, Wang Tao was speechless. He had just said that this zombie should not be a shady type, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face so soon - whether it was its ordinary appearance or its awakened ability to [Hidden Attack], it showed that it was the first shady type he had ever seen - a hidden zombie!
Fortunately, Wang Tao could see the attributes directly and saw her at a glance.

Otherwise, it is estimated that it can walk in front of Ding Yuqin and others. If Ding Yuqin and others fail to react, they will most likely be successfully attacked by this lord zombie, causing huge losses!
After all, the awakening introduction of [Stealth Attack] said that in the stealth state, the attack power and defense power will be greatly improved. This is the first time that Wang Tao has seen the word "greatly" in the awakening introduction, which means that this improvement is extraordinary!
However, since it has been discovered by Wang Tao, Wang Tao naturally cannot let it do as it wishes.

sizzle-

Two red high-temperature rays instantly emitted from Wang Tao's eyes and hit the hidden zombie instantly.

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【…】

Wang Tao was a little nervous when he saw the damage number popping up above the head of the hidden zombie.

Isn't this damage too low?

Even when Wang Tao was dealing with a sixth-order giant zombie with strong defense, he didn't inflict more than 500 damage!

Is this the effect of "greatly increased defense"? That's pretty cool!

While Wang Tao was exclaiming, the hidden zombie seemed a little confused. It didn't understand why it was attacked when there were so many zombies around it... It didn't think it had been discovered and thought it was just a low-probability event, so it didn't take any action, but continued to stagger towards Ding Yuqin.

However, its hidden state had disappeared, and the aura of the sixth-level lord was revealed unscrupulously, which instantly aroused the vigilance of Ding Yuqin and others.

"A sixth-level lord zombie has appeared!"

Everyone looked at the group of zombies vigilantly, trying to find out where this sixth-level lord zombie had gone.

Because this hidden zombie was of average size and unremarkable appearance, and there were a large number of zombies blocking it, even though it revealed the aura of a sixth-level lord, no one could find it for a while.

Lan Yulian acted decisively, spread a pair of bee wings behind her and flew into the air.

The sixth-level lord zombie is not scary. What is scary is the sixth-level lord zombie hiding in the dark, so she has to find this zombie!
Just as Lan Yulian flew into the air and had already moved her sights to the hidden zombie, just when she was about to see it, the breath of the sixth-level lord zombie disappeared again in an instant! Lan Yulian's sight passed by, and she didn't realize that the target she was looking for was right under her nose.

"what?"

Wang Tao, who had been observing the hidden zombies, was suddenly surprised.

He originally thought that this hidden zombie would no longer be able to launch a sneak attack after its identity was exposed by him, but he did not expect that it could enter the hidden state again in a short period of time!
It's worthy of being called awakening! Although the concealment potion in his hand also has a concealment effect, it has many limitations... There is still no comparison between potions and awakening.

"It's there."

Wang Tao immediately reminded Lan Yulian, and at the same time, two red high-temperature rays fell on the body of the hidden zombie.

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【…】

After entering the hidden state, the defense of this hidden zombie was greatly improved again, and Wang Tao's [Scorching Eyes] still failed to cause any damage. However, he successfully marked this zombie, allowing Lan Yulian to see it at a glance.

“So gloomy!”

Lan Yulian was shocked.

Unexpectedly, this zombie was not far away from them, and looked so ordinary. If Wang Tao hadn't reminded them, they might have been ambushed! They were only at level 5, and if they were ambushed by a level 6 lord zombie, they would be dead!

"Leave this to me."

Wang Tao asked the golden eagle to continue observing from the sky. There were too many zombies here, and there might be other lord zombies, so they could not let their guard down.

He spread his wings, exuding his sixth-level aura, and flew quickly towards the hidden zombies with a machete in hand.

Looking at Wang Tao flying towards him, the hidden zombie realized that he was really exposed.

Roar!
It roared, raised its sharp claws, and grabbed Wang Tao who was flying towards it.

clang!
The sword and claws made contact, making a metallic collision sound. Although it was not seriously injured, it took Wang Tao's sword and was chopped away and fell into the zombie group, smashing several elite zombies directly.

Before it could get up, Wang Tao appeared in front of it and slashed its head with a knife.

boom!
【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

[Curse: Slow down]

Wang Tao's blow directly dealt more than 10 damage to the hidden zombie. Lan Yulian had just taken the opportunity to give Wang Tao a healing, which made Wang Tao's attack carry the "biochemical virus" effect, and it also deducted % of the target's current health. So in total, Wang Tao's blow dealt more than damage to the hidden zombie!

The defense of this hidden zombie is much lower than Wang Tao imagined, but that's normal. The hidden zombies he encountered before were not as good as other zombies in terms of physical fitness. The hidden zombie is stronger in sneak attacks, but if it is discovered in advance and cannot launch a sneak attack, then it will basically be half useless.

This lord-level hidden zombie is probably about the same, and its physical fitness is probably average among the sixth-level lords. Although its hiding ability is much stronger than that of ordinary hidden zombies, and it has a lot of additional attack and defense power, as long as it is kept in combat, it is just an ordinary sixth-level lord and poses no threat to Wang Tao.

The hidden zombie was a little dazed by Wang Tao's knife. Wang Tao took advantage of its illness and wanted to kill it, so flames instantly ignited on his body and he fought it with the strongest attitude.

Just a few seconds later, the head of this sixth-order lord-level hidden zombie was chopped off by Wang Tao.

"Chirp—"

At this moment, the golden eagle suddenly cried out, indicating that other sixth-level lord zombies had appeared.

Wang Tao quickly collected his spoils and flew up into the sky again. Then he saw five zombies coming out of the hospital building at once, all of them were level six lords!
This made Wang Tao frown. Was there some unknown change in the hospital that caused a large number of lord zombies? Or was there a higher level of zombies?
