That’s it?

Killed in three hits?

Truth be told, Wang Tao was also somewhat surprised.

With the enhancement of his own strength, increasing experience, and the amplification of his weapons… It wasn’t that the enemy was too weak, but that his side was too strong!

There was no time to check the spoils; he quickly surveyed his surroundings, but he didn’t spot any other zombies.

“Where’s the other one?”

Wang Tao frowned slightly; he was sure he had heard there were two zombies in this room before!

Zombies don’t usually attack each other, at least Wang Tao hadn’t seen it happen so far.

So, unless that zombie jumped out the window, it had to be still in the house!

Wang Tao didn’t rush to search; though he had seemingly wielded his hammer effortlessly three times, each strike had been with full power, draining some of his energy. Since there was no immediate danger, he could catch his breath for a moment.

A few seconds later, Wang Tao cautiously made his way to the bathroom.

This house had the same layout as Wang Tao’s own, with two bedrooms, a living room, and one bathroom. The doors to both bedrooms were open, but the bathroom door was closed.

Wang Tao felt there might be something in the bathroom.

He tiptoed to the door and then kicked it open abruptly.

Bang!

“Huh? Nothing?”

Seeing the bathroom empty, Wang Tao was taken aback.

After confirming there was nothing in the bathroom, Wang Tao then checked the kitchen, which also turned out to be empty.

Could it be in one of those bedrooms?

Wang Tao glanced at the doorways of both bedrooms, but there were no zombies in sight.

“How strange…”

He took another look at the doors and windows, which were all tightly closed, not looking like anything had gone out. There were no bloodstains or signs of struggle in the room…

“Could I have misheard earlier?”

Wang Tao started to doubt himself, but quickly discarded the thought. He was someone who trusted his own senses; two zombies meant two zombies, and he most likely hadn’t misheard!

“Let’s see where you’re hiding…”

Wang Tao took a deep breath and then moved on to the second bedroom.

The second bedroom, apart from a bed, had only a simple cloth wardrobe. The zipper of the wardrobe was open, obviously it couldn’t hide a zombie.

He then grabbed his weapon tightly and peered under the bed.

Nothing was there either.

After confirming that the second bedroom was clear, Wang Tao entered the master bedroom, which was also devoid of any zombie beneath the bed.

Then Wang Tao stood up and turned his attention to the wardrobe in the master bedroom.

The master bedroom was much larger than the second and had a row of built-in wardrobes against the wall, with a total of more than a dozen doors.

The only place in the entire house he hadn’t yet searched was this large wardrobe; unless the zombie had truly opened the window and jumped out, closing the window behind it, or it had been chopped up and washed down the drain, or it had been eaten by another zombie… Otherwise, Wang Tao figured it was very likely in these wardrobes.

“But still, these wardrobes aren’t big; there are partitions in the middle. Would a zombie really run inside and even close the door behind it? That intelligent?”

Wang Tao was puzzled. His right hand gripped the weapon tightly while his left hand casually opened the first wardrobe door.

“Roar—”

“Fuck!”

The moment Wang Tao opened the first wardrobe door, a small-framed zombie, curled up inside the wardrobe, suddenly lunged out.

Wang Tao was startled. He swung his hammer instinctively but missed.

He was knocked down onto the floor by the zombie’s force, his weapon flying from his grasp.

[-5]

[130/135]

The zombie pinned Wang Tao’s limbs down, rendering him immobile in the shape of a cross on the bed. Then it opened its mouth wide, emitting a stench of decay, and its saliva-dripping teeth moved towards Wang Tao’s neck.

“Get off!”

On the verge of an intimate encounter with the female zombie, Wang Tao’s forehead veins bulged, his biceps swelled rapidly, and with all his might holding back the zombie’s force, he swung his right fist fiercely.

“`

“Your breath stinks!”

Bang!

His punch landed viciously on the zombie’s face, snapping its head to the side.

[-23 HP]

[467/500 HP]

The zombie seemed stunned by the blow, and its grip restraining Wang Tao weakened significantly.

Wang Tao seized the moment to raise his right foot and press it against the zombie’s chest, then pushed with both arms and legs, flinging it towards the doorway.

Bang!

The zombie was smashed against the doorframe by Wang Tao.

[-4 HP]

[463/500 HP]

The strike didn’t do much damage to the zombie, but it allowed Wang Tao to finally break free from its grasp.

Without even bothering to pick up his weapons, Wang Tao stepped over to the doorway, then coiled tension into his right leg and delivered a forceful kick to the zombie, which was still down on the ground and hadn’t gotten up.

Bang—

The kick sent the zombie skimming across the floor, flying from the room into the living room, shattering two wooden dining chairs in the process.

Wang Tao followed up on his victory, leaping into the air near the zombie, his hair nearly grazing the ceiling before he came crashing down harshly on top of the zombie.

Crack!

His climbing boots landed on the zombie’s knees, a crisp sound of bone snapping filling the air.

The zombie’s knees were completely crushed!

The zombie that was attempting to rise fell to the ground once more.

[-86 HP]

[377/500 HP]

Wang Tao had intended to stomp its head, but he wasn’t sure if he could crush the zombie’s skull; if it was too hard and caused him to fall, that would be troublesome.

So, Wang Tao changed his mind at the last moment, targeting its legs instead.

As it turned out, this was effective. The zombie’s HP bar shrank by a noticeable amount!

And that wasn’t even the most important part; it appeared the zombie couldn’t get up anymore!

They have no sense of pain; a broken arm or leg would be a fatal injury for a normal person, but for a zombie, it’s not lethal.

But Wang Tao wasn’t counting on it to kill the zombie; he was just hoping the broken legs would hinder its mobility! And it looked like it was indeed effective!

Perhaps the zombie still retained some human instincts, like bipedal walking, so when its kneecaps were shattered, it couldn’t stand up at all!

This outcome excited Wang Tao because it meant that, in the future, targeting the limbs could be a viable method for killing zombies.

After all, a zombie’s limbs aren’t as tough as its head, and while their necks are a weak spot, it’s not easy to hit for most people.

So, if survivors were smart, they could potentially chop off the legs to restrict the movements of a zombie and then finish it off completely!

While his mind was racing with thoughts, Wang Tao’s actions didn’t stop.

With the zombie down and unable to rise, it was essentially a live target. Wang Tao showed no mercy, stomping down hard and deforming its arms.

[-34 HP]

[-32 HP]

[311/500 HP]

Looking at the zombie with all its limbs broken, yet still baring its teeth at him, a cruel smile appeared on Wang Tao’s face masked behind the visor.

He had been quite frightened just moments before.

This grudge, he had to avenge!

Moreover, he wanted to take this rare opportunity to test his damage ability.

“Roar—”

This female zombie seemed to sense its impending fate and let out an angry roar.

Wang Tao clenched his fists and then said fiercely,

“Keep screaming, even if you scream your throat raw, it’s no use!”
