Chapter 505: Chapter 219 Killing the Blue-skinned Night Demon_2
“Night Demons! Brother Wang, are you going to make a move?”
Nie Siyan was somewhat excited upon spotting a few Night Demons ahead.
Before Wang Tao had arrived, she had encountered a Night Demon once and had almost been killed. She certainly remembered the grudge!
Wang Tao took a look; there were about three Night Demons nearby, but there were more than a dozen further away.
“Forget it, let’s go around. After we finish the important business, we can talk about it.”
Night Demons are social creatures; if they couldn’t be killed swiftly, it would definitely attract a large number of Night Demons. Regardless of whether the group could handle it, it would surely delay the main task. There was no need to complicate things unnecessarily. If they really wanted to kill Night Demons, they could discuss it after completing their business.
However, speaking of Night Demons, Wang Tao suddenly remembered something.
“Night Demon’s Nests are known for their good loot, capable of dropping Exraction Crystal Cores. Now that it’s night and there are many Night Demons outside, I wonder if there are any left inside the nest?”
Wang Tao planned to observe carefully; if he really could discover a Night Demon’s Nest, he might consider checking it out…
After spending some time, the group arrived near the diving hall. Then Wang Tao led a few people to the rooftop he had stayed on during the day. From here, they could get a good view of the diving hall.
“Eh? The number of zombies around the diving hall seems to have decreased a bit?”

Lan Yulian said with some uncertainty.
With only the faint glimmer of stars that night, it was hard to see clearly from a distance, but she felt like there were fewer zombies.
“Indeed, there are less!”
Wang Tao nodded.
He had observed the number of zombies here during the day, and now it was clear that there were significantly fewer.
After observing for a while longer, Wang Tao identified the problem.
“I think I understand now. Zombies are more active at night and may wander around the area; they don’t necessarily stay here all the time. During the day, however, they are attracted by the living humans inside the diving hall and gather around it again…”
“Does that mean, if they make a break for it during the night, they might be able to get out?”
Nie Siyan asked, somewhat curious.
Wang Tao shook his head.
“Not exactly. Although some zombies surrounding the diving hall have decreased, it doesn’t mean those zombies are dead. If those inside tried to break out now, it would definitely cause a commotion and attract those zombies back. Moreover, there are so many Night Demons at night… Without external help, it would still be very difficult for them to escape danger.”
Hearing Wang Tao’s words, everyone fell into a brief silence. After all, no matter how you put it, those inside were human survivors. If they all died, it would be a tremendous loss for Zijing City.
“Later, I will try to draw away some of the zombies on the north side, and then it’s your time to shine.”
Wang Tao said, looking at Nie Siyan.
“Okay!”
Nie Siyan was a bit nervous and excited.
She had learned a Jump Ability that allowed her to jump very high, especially now that it had reached Level 3, enabling her to leap between buildings!
Her task was to jump into the diving hall, display the aura of a Level 3 ability user to deter rash actions, and finally, to convey that they would find a way to rescue them. Of course, she was also to take the “funds” from the hands of General and his men.
As for General telling Lan Yulian to go back to Zijin Base for reinforcements, Wang Tao had vetoed it.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to save them, but the reinforcements he had were fully armed soldiers. If they fought, it would cause a huge commotion. The sports center was teeming with zombies right then, and there might even be a Fourth-order Mother Zombie. If all were alarmed… not only would those trapped not survive, but neither would the reinforcements.
After waiting on the rooftop for a while, Wang Tao felt that the timing was about right and said to Nie Siyan:
“I’ll go north to create a distraction. When you see a portion of the zombies moving away, that’s your cue to go. As for the others, be ready for combat in case of emergencies.”
“Yes!”
Everyone nodded.
After Wang Tao descended the building, he ran straight toward the north.
The noise he planned to make still relied on Self-Destruct Bombs.
But there were too many zombies around, so Wang Tao had to run further away. He couldn’t handle being surrounded.
As for whether it was possible to lure away all the zombies around the diving hall… Wang Tao didn’t think it was likely, as many were attracted by the scent of humans and wouldn’t be easily diverted.
Wang Tao ran for over ten minutes, dodging and weaving. Without others slowing him down, he quickly left the area of the sports center.
This was a small park with few zombies and was relatively quiet.
“This place is good!”
Using his Plant Affinity Perception, Wang Tao checked to make sure there were no issues, then took out several Self-Destruct Bombs.
Thump, thump—
The heart-shaped Self-Destruct Bombs started to pulsate rhythmically as soon as he took them out.
Wang Tao carefully positioned the bombs, then hurriedly ran out of the park and onto the rooftop of a four-story building.
He took out the Bone Hand Crossbow and shot an arrow at one of the Self-Destruct Bombs he had left at the entrance of the park, then fled without looking back.
Whoosh—
Boom!
The Self-Destruct Bomb exploded instantly upon being hit.
That explosion triggered a chain reaction with the other bombs.
Boom—Boom—
All of the bombs exploded, and the ground seemed to shake.
After the explosion, various roars were heard as the surrounding zombies were all attracted!
By then, Wang Tao had already made his escape.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
But as he was hurrying back, his eyes suddenly lit up. He saw three Night Demons running out of a building, one of which was a Blue-skinned Night Demon.
