Chapter 314: Chapter 156 Best of Luck_3

Wang Tao’s vision was pitch black; even as his eyes emitted a green glow, he still couldn’t see a thing!

Not only was his sight compromised, but Wang Tao also felt difficulty breathing, his body stiffened, and even his consciousness started to blur!

“I’m dying…”

Wang Tao felt a sense of fear; he thought he was starting to see his life flash before his eyes.

Bang—

Suddenly, Wang Tao felt as if he had been fiercely kicked, a piercing pain shot through his belly. Then, his vision brightened—he had emerged from the black mist!

The black mist churned tumultuously, as if Jiang Shixue was engaged in a fierce battle with the monster within!

“Jiang Shixue…”

Wang Tao had mixed feelings, but he knew that if it weren’t for Li Qiuyu’s sake, Jiang Shixue wouldn’t have saved him.

Without any hesitation, Wang Tao immediately ran toward the west, following the river’s direction, and took a Stealth Potion on the go. After all, the zombies in the county town were all riled up, and he would definitely be surrounded if he didn’t use the Stealth Potion.

As for the direction of Wang Tao’s escape, naturally, it was the opposite of the direction Wei Zhenguo and the others had taken.

He didn’t know how long Jiang Shixue could hold off the pursuit, but he guessed it wouldn’t be long, considering the vast gap between Level 2 and Level 3. If the monster were to catch up again, Wang Tao definitely didn’t want it to chase after Wei Zhenguo and the others; that would’ve been a wasted effort.

At that moment, Wang Tao suddenly heard a buzzing noise from the sky.

“Hm?”

Wang Tao looked up. Small raindrops fell on his face, and he saw a dark shadow in the sky, causing him to freeze momentarily.

“An airdrop? Now of all times…”

Wang Tao was tempted by the contents of the airdrop, but he dared not pick it up—it was certainly a time to prioritize staying alive.

However, to Wang Tao’s surprise, the Black Mist Monster behind him seemed to be attracted by the sound of the plane and immediately chased after the aircraft’s flight path!

Wei Zhenguo and his group had run eastward while Wang Tao had headed west; the plane seemed to fly from south to north, and the Black Mist Monster gave chase in the northern direction!

Seeing this, Wang Tao first felt a surge of relief, then found himself in a dilemma.

But in the end, he gritted his teeth and ran back.

Arriving at the site where Jiang Shixue had fought with the shadow, the area was a complete mess, with no sign of Jiang Shixue or a corpse.

Had she turned into a zombie? Or was she torn to pieces by the monster, or perhaps devoured? Wang Tao didn’t know, but he once again felt a dangerous sensation—the Black Mist Monster seemed to be returning!

Not daring to delay, Wang Tao immediately continued running westward along the river.

But after only a few minutes, that faint sense of being watched returned!

“Damn it!”

Wang Tao took a fierce decision, plunging into the river!

His plan to lure the monster out was to escape through the water. After all, Jiang Shixue had mentioned previously that the monster hated water. But Wang Tao wasn’t sure if there were other monsters or zombies in the water—such a presence would spell his doom!

Right now, he had no other choice.

With a splash, Wang Tao dove into the water and completely disappeared.

About ten seconds later, a black mist emerged at the spot where Wang Tao had jumped into the river, and a pair of glowing red eyes within it stared intently at the water, seemingly enraged.

Eventually, it drifted away.

“Meow~”

…

Drip, drip, drip…

The rain fell upon the river, creating ripples upon ripples.

Gurgle, gurgle~

Suddenly, bubbles started to appear on the water’s surface, and then a burly figure burst out from the water.

“Ugh—cough, cough—huff—”

Wang Tao gazed at the gloomy sky, then looked at the shore, relieved to see no monsters. He grinned wryly and then laboriously crawled onto the bank.

He didn’t know how long he had stayed in the water, nor did he know his location; he only knew that if he didn’t come up soon, he would truly suffocate.

Wang Tao glanced at his remaining HP, which was less than a thousand. He quickly applied every usable ability and potion available.

Shortly after, lying in the muddy ground by the riverbank, Wang Tao saw his HP finally start to regenerate, and he let out a sigh of relief.

Enduring the pain, Wang Tao struggled to get up and found himself in a deserted and uninhabited village. He had no idea whether it housed any zombies.

Watching the rain grow heavier, Wang Tao knew he wouldn’t be able to travel further that day and decided to rest in the village overnight.

However, just as Wang Tao was about to check the village for dangers, a corpse floating on the river caught his eye—not a corpse, a zombie, a dying zombie!

Of course, none of that was the main point; what mattered was that it was Jiang Shixue!

[HP: 66/18000]

[Mana: 4235/16000]

[Grade: Level 2 – Lord]

[Hidden Attributes: Eyes of Contract]

Without a word, Wang Tao dived back into the river, and after nearly half an hour, he managed to drag a slender body ashore.

“Huff—”

Wang Tao had previously thought that if Jiang Shixue turned into a zombie completely, she would definitely become a very powerful one.

And sure enough! After she became a zombie, her HP and Mana both doubled, and her grade shot up straight to Lord Rank.

Of course, she was critically wounded now, and with that HP, she’d die upon contact.

Even though she was critically wounded, being a zombie, the reason Wang Tao had taken so long was because he had to restrain her.

“Heh heh…”

The zombie Jiang Shixue, now bound hand and foot by Wang Tao, glared at him with glowing red eyes, and she let out a series of growls from her throat.

Wang Tao ignored the noises and continued dragging her by the legs into the dilapidated village.
