Chapter 142: Chapter 99 Archer Zombie_3

Wang Tao hung the firefighter axe at his waist and held a compound bow, while Han Rui wielded a compound crossbow. Both were eager to try out their new weapons.

As they approached the entrance, still dozens of meters away, Han Rui raised her crossbow.

Whoosh—

A crossbow arrow flew out, piercing directly into the eye socket of a zombie at the door.

[-1000]

[o/iooo]

It was an instant kill, and apart from the sound of the zombie hitting the ground, there were no other sounds; the surrounding zombies did not even notice Wang Tao and Han Rui.

Wang Tao glanced at Han Rui, somewhat surprised. The power of the crossbow arrow was higher than he had anticipated, capable of one-shotting an Ordinary Zombie!

If Han Rui had used a spear to attack a zombie, she would normally deal about two hundred HP worth of damage. Previously, it took two or three stabs to kill a zombie. As zombies gained more HP, it could take four or five stabs to do the job.

But now, using the sniper crossbow, she could easily kill them instantly.

However, on second thought, it made sense. After all, the power of a crossbow cannot be underestimated, especially a modern compound crossbow like this, which could be more powerful than some guns. Except for its slower firing rate, it could be considered a divine artifact in this apocalyptic world.

Han Rui was thrilled; she finally had the ability to kill Ordinary Zombies in one shot!

Although it was with the help of a powerful tool, the kills were indeed made by her own hands, and she could even feel a slight warmth in her body… that was the sensation of growing stronger!

However, the crossbow’s firing rate was slow, and it was a large sniper crossbow which she had to cock with her foot. It somewhat affected her performance.

After seeing Han Rui’s success, Wang Tao did not hurry to take action. Since his Arrow Technique was very average, he was unlikely to hit if the zombies were not at close range.

“It’s up to you,”

Wang Tao said to Han Rui.

“Yes!”

Han Rui nodded a little excitedly.

This modern compound crossbow had a very long shooting range, said to reach four or five hundred meters.

Of course, hitting a target at that distance would depend on luck, since the crossbow arrows were heavy, flew slow, and had a significant drop in trajectory, making them more susceptible to environmental factors.

Let alone a crossbow, even using a gun, hitting a target two hundred meters away could earn someone the title of sniper. Normally, snipers like Han Rui from the police force would have an accuracy of about one hundred meters.

So for Han Rui, as long as she could ensure effective hits within a thirty to fifty meters range, she would be more than satisfied.

Currently, they were only about twenty to thirty meters away from the zombies at the gate. Han Rui calmed her mind and could almost achieve a hundred percent accuracy.

Soon, all seven zombies at the gate were taken out by Han Rui’s sniping, without attracting any attention from other zombies.

Han Rui’s HP also broke three hundred, reaching [330/330].

“Awesome!”

Han Rui silently cheered inside her heart.

Every time her HP increased by a hundred, there was a minor but noticeable enhancement to her physical attributes. Han Rui had only experienced this twice before, and both times under dangerous circumstances without time to savor the sensation. Now it was utterly different, dispatching zombies with such ease!

Han Rui looked at Wang Tao with eyes full of gratitude.

Without Wang Tao, she would never have had this opportunity. He had given up his own chance for improvement to her!

“Thank you!”

Han Rui expressed her gratitude sincerely.

“Don’t mention it, let’s go.”

Wang Tao watched Han Rui snipe at a distance, feeling a bit envious. But at this range, he simply couldn’t hit the mark.

He had tried firing two arrows: one hit a pillar and the other hit a zombie’s leg…

The two reached the gate and collected all the arrows stuck in the zombies, as they could be reused.

Hehe…

Upon arrival, they discovered a security guard zombie in the guardhouse.

Wang Tao quickly drew his bow and arrow, took aim, and released.

Whoosh—

[-1000]

[0/1000]

Finally killing a zombie with a bow and arrow, Wang Tao felt quite pleased. Though it was only at a distance of three meters, he might’ve killed it faster with his axe…

The two entered the housing complex through the main gate and could see about thirty zombies around the airdrop in the square. It was an airdrop with a parachute. They stopped about twenty meters from the zombies and then each picked targets to shoot.

A few minutes later, all thirty-plus zombies lay on the ground.

Han Rui accounted for twenty-seven of them, while Wang Tao only six. It wasn’t that Wang Tao’s aim was off, but he purposely gave Han Rui the opportunity since killing these Ordinary Zombies didn’t increase his HP limit anymore.

The two walked over, and after Han Rui collected her crossbow arrows, she helped Wang Tao collect his arrows as well. She looked at the bundle of arrows sticking out from the zombies’ chests, thighs, and even buttocks, pretending not to notice anything.

Wang Tao opened the airdrop box, which contained what he had expected – Inhibitors. There were five boxes in total, each one with twenty tubes.

After securing all the Inhibitors, they were about to leave. Suddenly, Wang Tao felt a light shining on his feet. He looked up to see a man in the 12th-floor window of building number 1 waving a mirror at him.

“There are survivors!”

Han Rui’s gaze sharpened.

But looking at the man’s position, she shook her head. She didn’t have the capability, and while Wang Tao might, there was no need for him to take the risk.

“Our mission today is to discover airdrops. We’ll report the survivors’ presence to the base, and let them come up with a plan.”

Wang Tao shook his head; he still had a few more airdrops to collect. Frankly, rescuing these survivors was not as valuable as collecting airdrops.

At that moment, the man upstairs became frantic, waving the mirror wildly, thinking Wang Tao had not seen him.

But neither Wang Tao nor Han Rui were moved and were about to leave. Just then, a sharp female cry came from upstairs.

“Hey! Don’t go, save us!”

The voice pierced the sky.

“…Stupid!”

Wang Tao cursed under his breath.

“Run!”

Before the pair could leave the complex, they saw a large swarm of Mad Demon Zombies drawn by the noise.

Observing the horde crowned with 2000 HP Mad Demons, Wang Tao decisively pulled Han Rui to run back.

“To the villa district!
