As for clothes and such, Gao Hua naturally changed into a new set, managing to look both dirty and disheveled. Otherwise, his clean appearance wouldn’t match the look of a refugee.

After Gao Hua had finished preparing, Wang Tao called him out alone.

“Big brother, do you have any instructions for me?”

In front of others, Gao Hua would call Wang Tao Commissioner Wang like everyone else, but in private, he would call him big brother. This not only brought them closer but also prevented any resentment.

No matter who was older, Gao Hua recognized Wang Tao as his big brother!

When Gao Hua saw Wang Tao calling him over alone, he thought Wang Tao had a special mission for him. Being a loyal subordinate, helping his big brother was naturally no problem.

But to his surprise, Wang Tao pulled out several items and handed them over to him.

“This is a Stealth Potion… this is a Slime Grenade… this is a Weakness Potion… this is a Running Potion…”

Wang Tao gave Gao Hua several items in one go, also explaining how to use them.

“This mission is very risky, these items might save your life, use them as you see fit. Remember, self-preservation comes first.”

Since Gao Hua had always considered himself Wang Tao’s little brother, Wang Tao certainly had to look out for him. People clung to his coattails seeking protection, didn’t they?

These items might be expensive to others, but to Wang Tao, they were not particularly valuable, since he could continue to loot them from zombies. So, enhancing Gao Hua’s ability to protect himself was acceptable. If he really could rescue the hostages, even if all these items got used up, it would still be worth it.

As for the origins of these items, there was no need for explanation; they were clearly high-tech products of the modern era, easily attributed to apocalyptic technology. After all, with the emergence of Ability Users in this apocalyptic world, the appearance of some black tech was entirely reasonable.

Just as Wang Tao had expected, upon receiving these items, Gao Hua didn’t inquire about them, nor did he even consider asking. After all, the base had Inhibitors, so having some other technological products was quite reasonable too.

“Thank you, big brother!”

Gao Hua was somewhat moved.

He had thought Wang Tao was assigning him a mission, but didn’t expect that Wang Tao was actually concerned about his safety!

If before coming to the base, he followed Wang Tao because of Wang Tao’s formidable strength, and after arriving at the base, he was impressed by Wang Tao’s status, now he truly felt that Wang Tao’s character was also worth following!

After all, these items clearly seemed very precious, and Wang Tao had just given them to him…

Gao Hua was touched, but he didn’t say much.

Real men didn’t make empty talk; they proved themselves through actions!

“Give it your all, and if you manage to rescue those people, I’ll promote you, making you a department head. Of course, just do your best, don’t force it if it’s not possible…”

Whether successful or not, a showdown between Shuize Base and Shao Yong’s Base was inevitable. One mountain couldn’t contain two tigers, especially since the other side had now provoked Shuize Base.

Gao Hua was a smart man, and it would be a great pity if he just died like that.

“I understand!”

Gao Hua nodded firmly and then followed the Hunter Team away from the base.

After he left, Wang Tao drove back home.

“Sister-in-law, get in the car.”

Ding Yuqin had already prepared in advance, changing into clothes with some degree of protection. However, lacking physical strength, she naturally couldn’t wear the same heavy armor as Wang Tao.

Seeing that Ding Yuqin was all right, Wang Tao prepared to leave the base with her in the car. But suddenly, at the gate, he saw Chen Zhuang.

During Wang Tao’s last collection of medical supplies, he had to shoot Chen Zhuang’s fiancee, who had turned into a zombie. Chen Zhuang had been smiling ever since, insisting that it was fine and claiming he never truly loved his fiancee—appearing very nonchalant.

But Wang Tao knew it was a forced smile, and afterwards, he hadn’t seen Chen Zhuang very much.

Wang Tao learned from others that Chen Zhuang had been staying inside his home, not venturing out, though he himself seemed all right.

Wang Tao guessed that Chen Zhuang probably just needed some time alone and didn’t press the matter.

After all, Chen Zhuang was one of the few doctors at the base, and he had certain privileges. Even if he wasn’t working, the base would still provide for him, so Wang Tao didn’t pay too much attention afterwards.

Unexpectedly, he saw him today and from his appearance, Chen Zhuang looked like he was about to leave. Could it be that he was planning to do something foolish?

Chen Zhuang was not in his white coat today, dressed similarly to an average survivor, and was holding a sharpened steel pipe.

Wang Tao pulled up beside Chen Zhuang and rolled down the window.

Hearing the sound, Chen Zhuang turned around reflexively.

“Wang Tao?”

There was no look of utter despair on Chen Zhuang’s face, but sometimes those who seek death don’t reveal it with their expressions.

So Wang Tao asked directly,

“Where are you off to?”

“I… want to go kill zombies!”

Chen Zhuang said a bit sheepishly, scratching his head.

“A doctor like you, killing zombies?”

Wang Tao was somewhat speechless.

Chen Zhuang shook his head with a wry smile,

“I’ve been thinking a lot these past few days. I feel like being a doctor won’t save the world, but power definitely can. So, I’ve decided to strengthen myself!”

II II

That was a reasonable thought; strength was indeed the foundation of everything. Unless one’s medical skills were unmatched, and one feared no threats, entirely indispensable to others… otherwise, even doctors had to serve the powerful.

“I’m also going to kill zombies, want to come with me?”

Wang Tao invited him.

If Chen Zhuang refused, it was highly likely that he indeed had some problems..
