Doomsday: I can see the health bar, kill monsters and drop treasure.

Chapter 431 Frozen Zombies
"I can't see anything, can I still go..."

Looking at the wind and snow outside the window, Qu Shilin looked worried.

"Don't worry, we can leave."

Han Rui next to her patted her shoulder.

With Wang Tao and her here, it was basically like turning on the radar, so there was no big problem.

Qu Shilin is not worried about encountering monsters and zombies. After all, she still knows how strong Wang Tao's group is. She was worried that it was a danger from nature. There was snow on the ground and she couldn't see anything. No one knew what was under the snow. If she fell into a deep pit, she might not be able to get out...

However, since she chose to follow Wang Tao out, she would already assume the risk by default, and she was mentally prepared. Moreover, they are professionals when it comes to outdoor adventures. She has no experience in this area, so she just chooses to believe it.

"Okay, I believe you!"

Qu Shilin nodded, and then she looked at the two little minks who were playing with Lightning.

"But I hope to meet some zombies, because I am curious about what their fusion and awakening will look like!"

"Xiaohuo, from now on you will be called Xiaohuo!"

Qu Shilin asked quickly.

When Qu Shilin heard Wang Tao calling Xiao Bing, she suddenly thought of this question.

"Theoretically, this is the case, but after all, half a month has passed, and any accident is possible..."

Naturally, he was not just wandering around this time, but had already planned a route. According to the information given by the city hall, they discovered a total of five large zombie groups, all of which were slowed down by the heavy snow.

Jiji——

Mutated lifeforms are generally smarter. The IQ of these two minks is probably no worse than Lightning. It can obviously understand Qu Shilin's words.

She had killed zombies, but that was a long time ago. And the zombies it kills are different from ordinary people. Ordinary people kill zombies in the wild, but she does it for research, so she needs someone to bring the zombies to her, and she dissects them herself... Her blood volume, level , that’s how it came about.

The crystal energy car drove for two hours in the wind and snow, but Mao didn't encounter anyone.

Wang Tao felt that as long as the information was accurate, the zombies would most likely be there. After all, most zombies had very low intelligence. If they couldn't leave, they might not leave. But Wang Tao didn't say anything to death, anything could happen.

"A frozen zombie? Doesn't that mean we can kill it?"

Speaking of which, although these two little minks are both fourth-level lord mutant beasts, they are very small in size and are different from other mutant beasts Wang Tao has seen. Although Lightning looks small, this is not its true size. Its true size is much larger.

Wang Tao will check these five zombie groups in the order they are in. Will he always encounter zombies? If he walked through five zombie groups and couldn't see a single zombie, it could only be said that Wang Tao was unlucky, and there was nothing he could do about it.

The more you hope to encounter something, the less likely you are to encounter it.

Wang Tao frowned a little.

"If there are really zombies frozen in ice, can I kill a few of them?"

"That's not the case. The route we are going forward is provided by the city hall, which is the place where a large number of zombies were frozen. Even if there are no zombies on the road, there should be zombies in that place..."

The girls next to him immediately glared at Wang Tao. They originally wanted to help come up with a nicer name, but Wang Tao beat him to it.

"Should we not see zombies anymore?"

Wang Tao immediately turned his face.

Qu Shilin's eyes lit up.

"I feel like Xiao Huo is more lively than Xiao Bing..."

Wang Tao touched Xiao Bing's little head lying on Lightning's head. Xiao Bing narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was enjoying it very much.

Seeing those two cute creatures, Han Rui also smiled.

Wang Tao explained.

"Are all these zombies buried in the snow?"

Xiaohuo yelled, ran to Qu Shilin's shoulder, and licked her cheek.

"Okay! Then call it Xiao Huo!"

Wang Tao estimated that the physical fitness of these two mutant beasts may be relatively average compared to other mutant beasts... It depends on their awakening. Wang Tao is still looking forward to the fusion and awakening of the two of them.

Qu Shilin laughed. In fact, she originally thought that if something could hatch from the egg, it might be used as material for her experiment. But seeing how cute the little mink was, she couldn't bear it. After all, she was doing experiments. There is indeed some risk...

Qu Shilin is similar to Wang Tao. She doesn't care much about names, as long as they are easy to remember.

"Mine is called Xiao Bing, and yours is called Xiao Huo. I think this name is pretty good."

Qu Shilin looked at Wang Tao with bright eyes.

"Oh, by the way, I haven't given it a name yet!"

"Oh, it's so itchy~"

"Haha, me too! But this is the end of the world, so it's not surprising if anything outrageous happens."

"I hope there will be some zombies..."

"I'm looking forward to it too! But having said that, it felt weird when these two minks hatched from the eggs... I thought they were birds or insects or something like that!"

Qu Shilin was rather ticklish, so she subconsciously used her hands to touch Xiao Huo, but Xiao Huo was very flexible and ran from Qu Shilin's head to her shoulders, and continued to lick her.

Wang Tao believes that names are easy to remember, not easy to hear. Xiaobing and Xiaohuo are so easy to remember!

Wang Tao pretended not to see it, and Qu Shilin on the other side shouted.

So strictly speaking, she has never seriously killed zombies in the wild.

"Of course that's no problem. There are so many zombies that we can't kill them all."

Wang Tao smiled and nodded.

The first frozen zombie group is the closest to the base among the five, but this closest is relative to the other four zombie groups, and it is actually very far away. Especially in this blizzard weather, even with Wang Tao and Han Rui around, the car did not dare to go too fast, so they walked from morning to afternoon, and finally arrived near the zombie group.

"We're finally here. It's right in front. Let's go take a look."

Wang Tao said hello, and everyone immediately cheered up, and the car slowly moved towards the target.

But soon, Han Rui frowned.

"No...I don't feel zombies..."

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately became alert.

You are not afraid of seeing a large number of zombies, but you are afraid that there will be no zombies - because this means that these zombies have left and may be hiding somewhere. The unknown is the scariest thing!

Everyone looked at Wang Tao subconsciously.

"Go forward a little further, Xiaorui, look carefully. Don't miss any place."

Wang Tao frowned.

In fact, theoretically speaking, Wang Tao's plant affinity ability has the longest detection distance, followed by his ability to sense abilities, and finally his mental detection.

But unfortunately it was winter now, most of the plants were dead, and there was snow on the ground, so there was no chance for him to take advantage of it, so he had to rely on Han Rui.

"Ok!"

Han Rui nodded.

The car continued to move forward, and until Wang Tao stopped the car, Han Rui still didn't see any life except them.

So far, Wang Tao has never seen anyone who can escape the detection of sensory abilities. Since Han Rui didn't see anything, it means that there may be no zombies here.

However, for the sake of safety, Wang Tao said to everyone:
"You guys wait in the car, I'll go over and take a look first..."

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. If these zombies evolve the ability to block sensory abilities, it will be very dangerous for them to rush in.

"I'll come with you! I'm not afraid of the cold!"

Xiang Hongbin said immediately.

"it is good."

Wang Tao nodded, and then called Jiang Shixue and Lightning. At this time, both Xiaobing and Xiaohuo shouted at Wang Tao.

"Huh? Do you want to go too? Okay, let's go together."

So Wang Tao, three people and three beasts got out of the car.

"Hiss—it's a bit cold!"

Wang Tao shivered as soon as he got out of the car.

Only then did he realize that he seemed to be the only one who felt the cold...

Jiang Shixue has a special constitution. Her body temperature is much lower than that of normal people, and she is not afraid of the cold at all. Xiang Hongbin won't go into details. Most of his body is a mechanical structure, and he is neither afraid of cold nor heat. Lightning and the two minks were not afraid of the cold, and they all had fun in the snow. Only Wang Tao felt the cold.

Wang Tao looked at the information watch, which showed that it was more than 30 degrees below zero.

"Damn, what a bunch of perverts!"

Wang Tao complained, and then used his mental detection force with all his strength, leading everyone to touch the target.

"There are no zombies..." "I didn't see any..."

"Wang-"

"Jiji——"

"..."

"and many more!"

Wang Tao suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped everyone in their tracks.

"I saw zombies! But..."

Wang Tao had a look of shock on his face.

"what happened?"

Xiang Hongbin's eyes glowed blue and he instantly entered a fighting state.

"The zombies... have evolved! They're just behind the small slope on the left front! But there aren't many of them, so let's rush over!"

Wang Tao waved his hand, and the three men and three beasts immediately lowered their steps and touched them cautiously. After climbing over the slope, they finally saw the zombies Wang Tao mentioned.

"This is……"

There were several stiff figures under the slope. Unlike ordinary zombies, the skin of these zombies was pale white with a hint of blue. They were covered in frost, as if they had just come out of the freezer, but their movements didn't seem to be affected much...

[Health Volume: 200000/200000]

[Blue amount: 100000/100000]

[Level: Level 4·Elite]

There are six zombies in total, with exactly the same attributes, and they are all fourth-level elites. But their blood volume is a bit too much. There are actually 200,000, which is more blood volume than some fourth-level lords. This is the elite zombie with the most health volume that Wang Tao has ever seen.

However, the blood volume is not the point. The point is that they have a status——

[Freezing Halo: The movement speed is reduced, the ice attribute defense is increased, and the attack is added with ice attribute. Enemies within a radius of five meters will be slowed down and their ice attribute defense will be reduced]

Seeing this state, Wang Tao called him a good guy.

What the hell is this a negative state?
This is obviously a powerful ability. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is awakened, right?
Wang Tao has seen many states, such as poisoning, curses, bleeding, burning, acid rain, etc., but these states basically only affect himself and have nothing to do with others.

But this "frozen aura" is different. It is a state that can affect both yourself and others!
Although this state will slow you down, compared with the following "increased ice attribute defense, attack with ice attribute, enemy is slowed down, ice attribute defense reduced", this slowdown is not worth mentioning at all. After all, enemies will also be slowed down within the range of this freezing halo. If they all slow down, doesn’t that mean they don’t slow down at all?

Moreover, the range of its halo is a circle with a radius of five meters. This range is not small, nearly eighty square meters!

It would be okay if you encounter such zombies from a distance, but if you are unexpectedly surrounded by these zombies and are suddenly slowed down, you may not be able to run!
This is the evolution of zombies!

"There's something wrong with these zombies..."

Wang Tao briefly told Jiang Shixue and others about the situation of the frozen halo, and both of them were very surprised when they heard it.

"Then it looks like this kind of zombie is an elite, but its strength is much stronger than ordinary elites, and it's not even much weaker than a lord, right?"

Xiang Hongbin looked at Wang Tao.

"If there is only one elite zombie like this, its strength will definitely not be as good as that of the lords of the same level, but as long as there are more than three, it's hard to say..."

Wang Tao looked serious.

While he was talking, he observed carefully and could see that when these frozen zombies walked around, white frost would slowly condense under their feet. The range of this hoarfrost is exactly five meters in radius, which should be the range of their frozen halo.

So when these zombies stand apart, the range of their freezing halo is equivalent to becoming larger. If someone is slowed down within the range of the freezing halo, it will probably be difficult to leave.

As for the specific amount of deceleration... their status does not provide detailed data, and if not, there is only one possibility - this deceleration fluctuates greatly and is not fixed.

So it should be that people with strong strength are slowed down less, and people with weak strength are slowed down more...

Wang Tao carefully observed the surroundings again, and after confirming that there were no other zombies for the time being, he said to the two people and three beasts:
"Let's give it a try first to see what strength these zombies have!"

No matter how much you analyze, it's better to fight them first. After fighting them, you will know what their strength is.

"it is good!"

Several people responded and then walked out directly.

"Ho ho..."

As soon as they came out, these six frozen zombies spotted them instantly, and then these zombies moved towards a few people with stiff steps.

However, although their bodies were stiff, their speed did not seem to be slow, and they quickly arrived in front of a few people.

When Bai Shuang appeared at Wang Tao's feet, he suddenly felt a lot colder. This must be because his ice attribute defense was reduced.

Then Wang Tao saw Bai Shuang crawling up his body from his shoes. He moved and felt that his feet seemed a little heavier.

"It doesn't have a big impact on me!"

Wang Tao felt that he had been slowed down by about 10%. This effect was still there. After all, he was fast, so 10% was a lot.

However, after Wang Tao tried it, he found that he could break free with brute force - the harder he exerted, the smaller the deceleration would be. So it’s not a big problem!
Some hoarfrost also appeared on Xiang Hongbin's body. The impact of deceleration seemed to be greater on him than on Wang Tao. He could clearly feel his steps paused. But then he saw the crystal core on his chest emit a strong light, the white frost on his body evaporated instantly, and his deceleration state disappeared.

Apparently he used brute force just like Wang Tao. It's just that Wang Tao used the power of his own body, and Xiang Hongbin used the energy of the crystal core.

As for Jiang Shixue, the frozen halo seemed to have no effect on her. The white frost was just on the top of her feet and did not go any further.

But what surprised Wang Tao the most was Lightning and the two minks.

I saw two small minks, one blue and one red, standing on the left and right of Lightning's dog. The white frost on the ground directly bypassed them!

"It's Xiaobing!"

Wang Tao felt that this was due to Xiaobing. It should be due to its high ice attribute defense. In addition, it was a fourth-level lord, which was higher than these zombies, so it was not affected by the freezing aura at all! And not only it, but also the lightning and small fires around it are not affected.

"I didn't expect Xiaobing to have such ability!"

Wang Tao immediately greeted everyone and asked everyone to gather.

Then Wang Tao discovered that when Lightning came to him with Xiaobing on his back, he was no longer affected by the deceleration, and even the sudden cold was gone. In other words... the freezing halo was completely useless to him!

Not only him, but Jiang Shixue and Xiang Hongbin who had just walked to Wang Tao were also completely unaffected by the freezing halo, but they had to be closer to Xiaobing. But this is already very powerful, completely beyond Wang Tao's expectations.

Looking at the zombies that had already walked in front of him, Wang Tao touched the heads of Xiaobing and Xiaohuo, and then said:

"There are six zombies in total, one for each of us! Come on!"

Wang Tao took the lead and rushed over. After he left Xiaobing, the frozen halo state appeared on him again, but this was not a big problem for Wang Tao. A long knife suddenly appeared in his hand, pointing at the head of the frozen zombie. Just cut it over.

boom!
【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【…】

Seeing this damage figure, Wang Tao finally felt relieved. Although this kind of frozen zombie has a lot of health, its defense is not as good as that of the lords of the same level. He cut more than 40,000 blood with one blow, and 200,000 blood was only a matter of four or five cuts.

"Ho ho..."

The frozen zombie waved its arms at Wang Tao, but its speed was obviously too much behind Wang Tao, and Wang Tao easily dodged it.

After a few moves, Wang Tao chopped its head into pieces with a knife.

After putting away the trophies, Wang Tao looked at the others. Jiang Shixue, Xiang Hongbin and Lightning were naturally fine. He mainly looked at Xiaobing and Xiaohuo.

A stream of ice-blue air came out of Xiao Bing's mouth, and it instantly enveloped a frozen zombie. Ice crystals began to appear on the zombie's body, and it was frozen in the blink of an eye, turning into a veritable "frozen zombie"!
At the same time, its blood volume also began to continue to decrease.

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【…】

Xiaobing's freezing damage is triggered every 0.5 seconds, with more than damage each time. Wang Tao feels that this damage is relatively average... but it is still very good to be able to freeze the opponent, which is equivalent to a powerful control.

Suddenly, Wang Tao felt that the temperature around him had increased. He immediately turned his head and saw a dazzling tongue of fire flying out of the small flame, like a flamethrower, instantly igniting one of the frozen zombies.

Wherever the flames passed, the hoarfrost on the ground and the surrounding cold air were evaporated, and the ignited zombie's health began to drop wildly.

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【…】

"Fuck!"

Seeing this injury, Wang Tao was a little shocked.

It caused more than 0.5 damage every 4 seconds. After only seconds, this zombie was burned into a skeleton!
What a high damage!
Could it be that fire damage restrains the freezing attribute? Do these frozen zombies have low fire defense?
Wang Tao himself can also attack with fire attributes, you will know if you try it!

He quickly looked around, but these frozen zombies were already lying on the ground...
