Pfft!

[-8139]

A single blow, eight thousand blood!

This zombie’s defense isn’t high.

"Roar!"

The deceived Zombie Dog seemed furious, its eyes glowing red, muscles bulging as it bit at Wang Tao with even greater speed than before. Realizing he couldn’t dodge, Wang Tao took the hit head-on.

[-3194]

[110000/110000 (96806/100000)]

Instantly, Wang Tao felt like he was hit by a truck. Though uninjured, he was somewhat dazed.

"Such high damage!"

Seeing the damage numbers above his head, Wang Tao was surprised.

The Zombie Dog’s bite had actually taken—oh, no, to be precise, it had bitten off 3,000 HP from the Entangling Roots!

That was 1.4% of his total HP!

If it bit him seventy or eighty times like this, wouldn’t it chew him to death?

But Wang Tao didn’t panic; he forcefully escaped from the Zombie Dog’s mouth, and upon landing, he sent a Shockwave at the Zombie Dog’s head.

[-5448]

The Shockwave, being an area attack, was difficult for the Zombie Dog to evade and easily hit. But the power of the Shockwave was much less than the high-frequency vibration, only taking off five thousand of the Zombie Dog’s blood.

Seeing Wang Tao unharmed after being bitten and still attacking it, the Zombie Dog seemed even angrier.

"Roar—"

The Zombie Dog let out a loud roar and frenziedly launched a flurry of bites at Wang Tao.

Wang Tao could only see its afterimages.

However, Wang Tao wasn’t flustered. He dodged when he could, used the Bone Knife to block when he couldn’t dodge, and if the Bone Knife couldn’t block, he would have to rely on the Entangling Roots to take the hit.

It must be said that the Zombie Dog’s attack speed was truly fast, with too high a frequency of attacks. For every slash Wang Tao delivered, he’d be bitten several times; even if the dog could only bite him once, it was scary enough.

If not for Entangling Roots, Wang Tao wasn’t sure if his body could withstand its attacks. If he were bitten just once, it would definitely hurt badly.

Moreover, while attacking Wang Tao, the Zombie Dog was also slowly advancing toward the others. The attacks from Jiang Shixue and Yang Changhong, it completely ignored, as if it had set its mind solely on Wang Tao.

But at a certain moment, it suddenly released Wang Tao and lunged toward the others!

And its target was none other than He Jijun!

He Jijun was busy with the hand crossbow dealing with other zombies. Kill or not, his archery was accurate, consistently hitting zombies in the forehead. He hadn’t expected the Zombie Dog to give up its assault on Wang Tao and attack him instead.

"This Zombie Dog is so smart!"

Wang Tao was somewhat shocked. It was his first time seeing zombies employ strategy!

He immediately used the Tendril to try to capture the Zombie Dog.

Wang Tao’s position was quite far from He Jijun, and the Iron Tree Vines couldn’t reach him.

But after the tendril wrapped around the Zombie Dog’s leg, it only managed to hold the Zombie Dog for a second before it snapped!

[-5000]

The Iron Tree Vine with ten thousand HP lost five thousand instantly!

"Old He, dodge quickly!"

Wang Tao yelled at the top of his lungs.

Though He Jijun had the abilities of an Athlete and Running, they were all Level 1, and now he was facing a Level 3 Zombie Dog with a hundred thousand HP. These Level 1 abilities were simply not enough!

Faced with the Zombie Dog’s immense figure lunging toward him at the last moment, He Jijun was unexpectedly calm.

Knowing he couldn’t outrun it, he didn’t flee, but instead suddenly pulled out a giant pancake from his Loot Pack and threw it into the distance.

Whoosh—

```

The Zombie Dog paused for a moment when it saw the big pie He Jijun had thrown, then immediately changed direction and pounced toward the pie.

"?"

Wang Tao and the others were somewhat dumbfounded, unsure of what ability this was.

The Zombie Dog was very fast and bit into the big pie that He Jijun had thrown in the blink of an eye.

Given the size of the Zombie Dog, that big pie was hardly enough to fill its gaps between teeth; it was swallowed in an instant. However, it seemed to have no intention of eating the pie, so when the pie was gulped down, it appeared to be stunned for a moment.

Then it looked at He Jijun...

"Woof!"

"..."

Everyone was baffled.

What was this situation?

"It used to be a military dog; it’s just acting on instinct."

He Jijun explained.

"Doesn’t that mean we can control it?"

Wang Tao’s eyes lit up.

If they could control a big guy like this, that would be quite thrilling!

But He Jijun shook his head with a somewhat melancholic expression.

"No, it has no intelligence. This is just its instinct."

He had lost a good companion a few months ago, unfortunately...

"Roar!"

As if to prove He Jijun’s point, the Zombie Dog, after a moment of bewilderment, had a violent glare return to its eyes.

"Attack!"

But now that He Jijun had escaped danger, Wang Tao had no more reservations. The group charged once again.

Knowing that this was some remnant instinct of the Zombie Dog, attacking it became a lot easier.

He Jijun threw out a few more big pies, two of which worked.

Wang Tao was even more extreme, throwing out three Reinforced Concrete Hammers directly. The Zombie Dog might have thought they were bones and then..."crack," it bit through the reinforced concrete! But it lost HP in the process.

Wang Tao and the others seized the opportunity, directing all their attacks at its head.

After a few moves and with Wang Tao’s last swing, the Zombie Dog’s HP bar hit zero!

[-1223]

[0/100000]

Boom—

The Zombie Dog fell to the ground with a thud.

Wang Tao expertly cracked open its head, retrieved the Crystal Core, and also picked up the Loot Pack that had burst out.

"Hm? Did its teeth fall out?"

Wang Tao noticed that four of the Zombie Dog’s teeth had names on them and immediately collected them.

[You have obtained: Sharp Dog Teeth*4]

"Woof woof woof!"

At that moment, another group of Zombie Dogs appeared, but they were all Level 2 Elites, and not as large.

Wang Tao saw a large group of zombies behind these Zombie Dogs and had no time to check the loot, immediately saying to the others:

"Since there’s no danger inside, let’s get in first!"

"Okay!"
