“Huff—”

After finishing the second piece of paper, Wang Tao let out a sigh.

Although he knew the situation outside couldn’t be good, the confirmation still left him sowhat disappointed.

There was one last piece of paper in the envelope.

It provided instructions on how to contact their base using radio, the specific location of their base, and a blueprint.

This blueprint was not a map, but a zombie blueprint. It contained information about all the varieties of zombies encountered so far!

Compared to the ans of communication, Wang Tao was more interested in the zombie blueprint.

After all, he was too far away from the military base to contact them, even if he knew how. But the information on the zombies in the blueprint would definitely be of great help to Wang Tao.

There were more than twenty types of zombies detailed on the blueprint, among which Wang Tao saw a few familiar ones.

The stealthy zombie he had encountered before was called “The Taciturn.”

The Taciturn would silently hide in dark places or disguise themselves as human corpses. They made no sound and their perception was weak. They would only discover their prey when it ca close and then suddenly launch a deadly attack.

The fighting capabilities of this type of zombie were actually similar to that of ordinary zombies, but because of their ambush tactics, many people were killed by The Taciturn. Inside houses, they were a very dangerous type of zombie…

The child zombie that Wang Tao had seen, capable of short sprints, was officially called “Sprinters.”

They moved faster than ordinary zombies and had higher attack power. When prey was within a close distance, they would activate their sprinting ability. A single Sprinter was not much of a threat, but if a Sprinter mixed in with other zombies and launched a surprise attack, then survivors would be in great danger…

There was also the Screaming zombie Wang Tao had encountered and run over with his car, which was called “Screars.”

They were weaker than ordinary zombies, much weaker. An adult male with normal physical strength could easily take one on using a lee weapon.

But these zombies were highly sensitive to noise, and before they spotted a human, they would prepare and, once ready, emit an ear-piercing scream that could attract nearby, especially special, zombies.

If you killed a Screar before it could scream, there was no problem. But if you let a Screar get its scream out, the best option was to run! Otherwise, being surrounded by the horde ant only death…

As for the Big Hamr Zombie Wang Tao had encountered today, there was also a description, but not much.

Big Hamr Zombies were called “Terrorizers” and appeared a few days after the apocalypse began, at a ti when everyone was looking out for themselves, and no one would proactively hunt them.

Terrorizers were slow but could use weapons, with high attack power and defensive power. Their attacks also ca with shockwaves that science couldn’t explain… As for the characteristic of being sensitive to light, it wasn’t ntioned. It seems that no one had discovered that…

Wang Tao hadn’t encountered so of the other zombie types yet, but he committed the information of these zombies to mory, certain that it would be useful in the future.

The material also ntioned that most zombies were afraid of fire. If one wanted to establish a Survivor Base, fire was an indispensable elent.

At the end of the material, the Zombie Core was also ntioned.

It said that only strong zombies carried this Zombie Core thing, but its exact use was currently unknown because several volunteers who had tried to experint with it all suffered failure and substantial side effects.

They speculated that the Crystal Core, once consud, would likely enhance human physical capabilities, but with significant side effects. If anyone wanted to use it, they had to be psychologically prepared. They didn’t recomnd its use in principle…

After Wang Tao had read through all three pieces of paper, he carefully put them away and stored them in the box where the weapons were kept.

As for the guns, after thinking it over, he decided to take out one and load it with to bullets.

While guns might not be needed, it was best to prepare in advance, just in case they proved crucial at a critical mont.

Then, Wang Tao packed up the airdrop, as all of it needed to be taken back. It was a pity that these items couldn’t be put into the Space Backpack; that would have made things much easier.

By this ti, the sun was already setting.

The sunset was beautiful, but Wang Tao was in no mood to appreciate it.

He prepared for himself a simple dinner that was filling, and while he was halfway through eating, his gaze suddenly sharpened.

Because he saw that a group of people had erged in the distance!

There were six of them in total, four n and two won, all covered in gri and carrying large and small packs. They were brandishing so homade weapons, and was that a police officer among them?

“There are actually survivors coming out…”

Wang Tao felt sowhat surprised.

It wasn’t strange to find other survivors, the world was so large, there were certainly people who had lived through the catastrophe. But for survivors to co out at this ti… did they think they had nine lives?

It was about to get dark! Even he didn’t dare to venture out at night…

However, Wang Tao quickly realized that he might have misunderstood.

These survivors hadn’t erged in the evening, but had been out since before and had walked until dusk.

Because they were hiding in a corner, pointing at the water plant and discussing it, it seed they wanted to co over to seek shelter but were sowhat afraid to do so.

Wang Tao had no intention of going out to greet them. Having dealt with all sorts of people throughout his life, he was well aware of the potential malice in human hearts. Especially now, with his abundance of supplies and being wounded, he had to be even more cautious.

Though the small building where Wang Tao was staying was at a distance from the entrance, there was little to no obstruction in between, allowing him to observe the outside clearly.

The group of survivors cautiously entered the water plant, and upon finding the gate unlocked, they all beca excited. But a young man with dyed yellow hair got a scare when he noticed the zombie that Wang Tao had killed with a hamr in the security booth, and he ran back into the crowd in a panic.

“There’s a zombie!”

“Don’t panic, we outnumber it. One zombie won’t be able to overpower us!”

A woman dressed in black police uniform drew her service pistol, aid it at the security booth, and called out in a low voice.

When the policewoman spoke, the others seed to find their pillar of strength and instantly tightened their grip on their makeshift weapons like kitchen knives, steel pipes, and table legs, encircling the security booth in a fan formation.

The policewoman was about to suggest she should check it out when a skinny young man next to her suddenly spoke:

“Wife, why don’t you take a look?”

“…Hmm.”

The policewoman opened her mouth but then said nothing.

She put away her pistol and then carefully took out her baton from her waist and approached the security booth cautiously.

The others followed her, weapons in hand.

The policewoman arrived at the security booth and took a careful look inside at the zombie. Seeing the bloody hole in its head, she instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Don’t worry, everyone! The zombie inside is dead!”

Upon hearing that the zombie was dead, the crowd dared to exhale loudly.

The policewoman’s husband was still not entirely at ease. He went for another look, and seeing that the zombie was indeed dead, he straightened his back.

“However, how this zombie died, based on the wound, it looks like it hasn’t been dead for long…”

The policewoman furrowed her brow, looking towards the water plant. Could there be soone inside…?

Inside the small building.

Wang Tao, after watching the situation with the group of survivors outside, imdiately relaxed.

“So, they’re just a bunch of rookies….”
