Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 1056 - 423: Worsening Poisoning

Wang Tao discussed his idea with Jiang Shixue, who thought it was feasible. According to what Zhu Fen had told them before, although she did not know the identity of that Bishop, the Bishop also did not know her identity!

Their encounter with the Bishop had been extremely cautious; they had not even spoken to each other, the other party didn’t even know whether he was male or female!

Normally, a Bishop, being of higher rank than a Master Sido, should be aware of the Master Sido’s identity, but Zhu Fen was different—she was inside the base, while the Bishop was outside, unable to exert any influence over her. She might be someone who could mix it up with the committee members, so she was very careful in this regard.

Therefore, Wang Tao could certainly make contact with the Dusk Church using Zhu Fen’s identity.

But that would be a matter for later; Zhu Fen had said that they had agreed to meet again after the snow and ice had melted. Judging from the current situation, waiting for the snow and ice to melt would take at least a month, wouldn’t it? So there was no rush for the time being...

However, Zhu Fen left behind many things. Wang Tao was not interested in her properties, but he was interested in things related to the Dusk Church; he could go collect them over the next couple of days...

As Wang Tao pondered this, he returned to the building they had been in before.

But after climbing the stairs, Wang Tao frowned.

When he had left, Qiu Rong and Xia Zhen had been tied up with ropes. Now, however, the ropes from Qiu Rong and Xia Zhen were gone, and they lay sprawled on the ground, their pupils dilated, with vacant, silly smiles on their faces.

Next to them lay a middle-aged woman, who was also sillily grinning.

"..."

Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue exchanged glances, and he said with some uncertainty,

"Did this lady wake up? And then she untied them, and they took the medicine?"

"It seems so," Jiang Shixue nodded.

Wang Tao was somewhat speechless.

He had not expected someone to wake up early after taking the medicine and then untie the ropes. This Holy medicine was highly addictive; their first reaction after being freed would definitely be to consume the Holy medicine...

But if they drank it, they drank it; one more sip wouldn’t kill them. It was just that getting off it again would waste some more time... Luckily, they hadn’t run outside; otherwise, in this snowy weather, they might have frozen to death if they were unlucky.

"Wake up!"

Wang Tao slapped Qiu Rong’s face. Qiu Rong only knew to smile silly at Wang Tao, even when Wang Tao deliberately pinched the flesh on her waist, she had no reaction, and Xia Zhen was the same... They were clearly immersed in their own worlds.

Wang Tao shook his head, guessing that they wouldn’t wake up for quite some time.

"Brother, what should we do with these people?" Jiang Shixue asked as she looked at the people sprawled all over the place.

Although Jiang Hui had said he would drive over to pick up Wang Tao, Wang Tao didn’t think it appropriate to let Jiang Hui take all these people away.

He had checked; many of these people were family members of some officials within the base. Revealing their identities might cause considerable turmoil for the base...

Although the turmoil didn’t have much effect on Wang Tao, it wasn’t that these people were beyond help. As long as they persevered, they could still get rid of their addiction. If their situation led to a large number of personnel being suspended, it might be the Ordinary citizens who would suffer, especially since many areas were still in the midst of a snow disaster...

"Jiang Hui probably won’t arrive anytime soon, and considering that the lady had already woken up, the others will probably wake up soon too. Let them go home by themselves when they wake up."

Since they were able to get here, they could naturally find their way back.

"Okay." Jiang Shixue nodded.

So the two waited a while longer, and, sure enough, just as Wang Tao had guessed, people gradually began to wake up.

Wang Tao told them directly that the Master Sido, Deacon, and their group had all been captured, and he had saved them, urging them to quickly go home now.

They were somewhat bewildered by this news. In their perspective, they had only drunk a bowl of Holy medicine, and right after they finished drinking it, the Master Sido and Deacon were gone?

Although they were somewhat skeptical, there was indeed no one on the scene, and the Holy medicine had all been claimed by Wang Tao... This led them to reluctantly accept the reality.

"Then, can we still purchase the Holy medicine?" someone boldly asked.

Wang Tao showed some aura of an Awakener to make these people comply, as many of them were Ordinary people who were clearly a bit scared of him.

"No, you all need to go back now. Otherwise, when the police come, you won’t be able to leave even if you want to," Wang Tao said indifferently.

After hearing this, the crowd dared not dally, and they quickly got up.

At this moment, another person asked,

"Then may I ask who you are..."

Wang Tao was still wearing a mask at the time, so they did not know who he was. Wang Tao thought for a moment, then directly said,

"...I am the New Chaplain."

Since he planned to impersonate Zhu Fen, he might as well start now.

Hearing that Wang Tao was the New Chaplain, the crowd suddenly became excited again.

They did not care who the Master Sido was or who the Deacon was; they only cared about whether they would be able to continue drinking Holy medicine in the future.

Since there was a New Chaplain, they would certainly be able to keep drinking Holy medicine in the future!

So these people promptly paid their respects to Wang Tao and then, without wasting any words, left downstairs. They didn’t want the police to discover their true identities.

Watching these people leave one after another, Wang Tao’s face was expressionless.

He had no intention of continuing to supply them with Holy medicine, but he could help them get off their addiction. He had to ensure they would do so, otherwise, it would affect the stability of the base.
