Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot Chapter 747 - 296 Half Step to Perfection1

Looking at the ignited village, Wang Tao felt a bit embarrassed as he touched his nose.

It was his first ti fighting with the fireball special ability, and he had failed to control his strength, setting the small village ablaze.

At that mont, Wang Tao’s walkie-talkie crackled to life.

"Sss... Wang Tao. There are flas outside; it looks like quite a few buildings have been set on fire. Did you do that?"

It was Ding Yuqin’s voice, sounding sowhat anxious.

"Ahem, a little accident, nothing serious,"

Wang Tao explained.

"Phew—that’s good; I thought you encountered so danger..."

Ding Yuqin breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Tao hadn’t shown off his newly-learned fireball ability in front of everyone; Ding Yuqin and the others thought Wang Tao was using an Awakening...

Firelight was very noticeable at night, and although zombies naturally feared fire, they were also attracted to the light.

In a short mont, the village had attracted a large horde of zombies.

Wang Tao didn’t leave; these zombies were perfect for him to practice on.

After he had killed all the zombies that were attracted here, Wang Tao had essentially mastered the fireball ability. There would be no more situations like just now—setting an abandoned village on fire just to kill a few ordinary zombies.

"Let’s go back."

As the flas were gradually extinguished by the rain, Wang Tao walked towards the location of the train with Jiang Shixue and Lightning.

Just as they were halfway there, the walkie-talkie crackled again, but this ti it was Duan Xuchang.

"Attention all units, a Night Demon has been spotted inside the train station!"

"Night Demon!"

Wang Tao’s eyes lit up, and he hurriedly ran back.

When Wang Tao returned to the vicinity of the train, all the machines that had been clearing obstacles were gone, replaced by ten powered armors, several infantry fighting vehicles, main battle tanks, and soldiers in chanical exoskeletons. Above, there were two Wu Zhi helicopters hovering.

"Where’s the Night Demon?"

Wang Tao imdiately asked.

One of the powered armors turned to face Wang Tao.

"Inside the ruins of the train station, our people killed a Night Demon. It seems like there’s a Night Demon’s Nest in there, but we’re still not clear on the precise location of the entrance; we’re searching for it."

For most people, killing a Night Demon didn’t carry many benefits. After all, Night Demons are difficult to deal with and don’t have Crystal Cores. Usually, if they encounter a Night Demon, they would flee if they could, and fight only if they absolutely must.

However, for Duan Xuchang’s military force, fleeing was obviously not an option, and they had the capability to deal with Night Demons. So, upon discovering a Night Demon, Duan Xuchang imdiately stopped the obstacle clearance operation, mobilized his force, and prepared to find and eliminate the Night Demon’s Nest!

This train station was in a rather remote location with fewer zombies around. Even if there was a Night Demon’s Nest, the number of Night Demons wouldn’t be large, so it should not be too difficult for them to clear it out. With their combat power, even a Level 4 Night Demon could be easily handled.

"Let’s go together."

Wang Tao offered.

"Okay, I’ll share the visuals with you."

Ding Yuqin and the others also ca out, with Wei Zhenguo holding a smartphone that displayed an overhead infrared thermal imaging view.

Although zombies’ bodies don’t have much temperature, any object with a temperature above absolute zero radiates infrared light. As long as there’s a temperature difference between the zombies and their environnt, the thermal imager can detect them.

Of course, the thermal imaging view isn’t like the X-ray vision you’d see in so of Wang Tao’s gas where walls and ruins wouldn’t block the view. Still, zombies weren’t likely to deliberately hide from this, so they could be found as soon as they appeared.

Wang Tao found this quite interesting and studied it carefully.

In terms of detection, this was far inferior to Wang Tao’s Perception Ability. After all, Wang Tao’s Perception Ability was equivalent to X-ray vision.

Infrared thermal imaging was a bit like Plant Affinity, easy to be limited.

But... infrared thermal imaging could see very far!

In theory, as long as the object was big enough, infrared thermal imaging could see infinitely far, like being able to see the sun, the moon, etc.

But most zombies were not large, and various other factors could interfere, so the range was definitely not that extensive.

According to Duan Xuchang, the thermal imager on the Wu Zhi helicopter could detect zombies from over ten kiloters away.

The thermal imagers within their powered armors could see up to five kiloters, and the ones carried by exoskeleton soldiers could see two to three kiloters.

In terms of distance, this was far superior to Wang Tao’s Perception and Plant Affinity!

Despite various limitations, in this situation, it was still very useful.

It didn’t take long for Wang Tao to spot a yellow figure in the visuals, with movents characteristic of a Night Demon!

"Found it! Right over there... Let’s go!"

At the sa ti, Duan Xuchang gave the coordinates.

He took 3 powered armors and 8 infantry fighting vehicles there.

The other personnel, including the tanks, stayed around the train. After all, the train was long and big, containing many survivors who needed a large military force for protection.

Whirr—

Under Duan Xuchang’s lead, blue flas shot out from the back of their four powered armors as they swiftly glided across the ground. Any obstacles they encountered were smashed apart by the large feet of the powered armors, leaving shallow grooves in the ground.

Wang Tao watched with envy; as soon as he got to Changhe Base, he was determined to find a way to get a powered armor to play with!

Probably the sound of the helicopter attracted the Night Demon; as Wang Tao ran towards the coordinates, he saw more and more Night Demons appearing on the screen.
