How to Farm Purified Water

How to Farm Purified Water

"You cheating bastards!"

"Bitch!"

"I fucking..."

The moment Wu Fei saw the video, his mouth turned into a Gatling gun.

If words could kill, then even without the apocalypse, Wu Fei would have mowed down the entire world in those few short minutes.

"Do you know why she wanted to kill you? Because you saw proof that they murdered someone—though you didn't actually see anything, they thought you did."

With the collapse of order in the apocalypse, harming others for personal gain was bound to happen sooner or later. Wang Tao had been prepared for it.

As for why the two of them were afraid of their murders being exposed, it was obviously because of Han Rui, the policewoman.

Han Rui was clearly a woman with a strong sense of justice. If she found out they had killed their teammates, things would become troublesome.

Ou Yingying was especially afraid. After all, she and Han Rui were complete strangers... She couldn't be sure whether Han Rui would kill her.

So, to avoid trouble, she had even killed Wu Fei outright.

It had to be said that this woman was decisive.

Setting aside her character, that ruthlessness alone would probably let her survive a long time in an apocalyptic environment like this.

"No wonder that bitch kept secretly looking at Sun Wei Guang when we met Han Rui and her husband earlier..."

Wu Fei painfully clutched his hair.

He had thought Ou Yingying had merely wanted to look at a handsome guy a few more times, just like how he wanted to look at Officer Han Rui a few more times. He had only been appreciating her beauty and hadn't had any improper thoughts, since she was married.

But who would have thought Ou Yingying had been after him all along! And he had even fallen out with Sun Wei Guang because of her before... Turns out he was the fucking clown! "As for why they wanted to kill that college student, Li Cheng... I'd guess it was because Li Cheng kept fawning over Officer Han Rui on the road and made Sun Wei Guang resent him. Then Sun Wei Guang wanted someone to lure away the zombies, so he chose him..."

After figuring everything out, tangible fury seemed to blaze from Wu Fei's one eye.

"That cheating pair—I'll make sure they die horribly!"

"Enough. Who knows whether they'll die, but if you keep getting this worked up, you might die first."

Wang Tao pointed at the wounds on Wu Fei's body, which had begun bleeding from his agitation.

"..."

Wang Tao checked his watch again.

"What do you want to ask? You have ten minutes."

"You, that thing—"

Wu Fei pointed at the empty inhibitor vial on the ground.

"This was developed by the authorities after gathering a large number of experts..."

Wang Tao briefly explained the inhibitor.

"Then how can I get inhibitors?"

Wu Fei hadn't forgotten that Wang Tao had told him he might need inhibitors in the future.

"For now, all I know is that there are inhibitors in airdrops, so pay close attention to them."

"Airdrops!"

Wu Fei's eyes lit up. He had obviously seen the plane's airdrop earlier.

"Then, big brother, are you at the Survivor Base? Can you take me there? I'll repay you!"

Wu Fei looked at Wang Tao eagerly.

Wang Tao shook his head.

"I'm not at the Survivor Base. I'm at my own home."

Wu Fei's face immediately filled with disappointment when he heard that.

Since Wang Tao was at his own home, he obviously wouldn't bring along an outsider like him.

"I think you're capable of reaching the Survivor Base on your own."

Wang Tao looked at Wu Fei's wounds as he spoke.

Wang Tao didn't know whether it was a side effect of the inhibitor or an aftereffect of Wu Fei nearly becoming infected and mutating, but Wu Fei's body seemed much stiffer. He gave off the feeling that he could turn into a zombie at any moment... Yet his physique seemed stronger as well.

Wang Tao guessed that once Wu Fei recovered, even with 20 less Health Bar, he should still be stronger than an ordinary person.

As long as he could fight a zombie one-on-one and stayed cautious on the road, he would have a certain chance of making it to the Survivor Base. After all, it wasn't that far away. Besides, killing zombies could increase his maximum Health Bar. The more he killed, the stronger he would become...

Wang Tao left Wu Fei the Medical Kit he had used, along with some food, then got into the vehicle under Wu Fei's watchful gaze.

"...This big brother actually drove out here?!"

Wu Fei was dumbfounded.

Daring to drive through an apocalyptic city—now that was a real badass!

He suddenly regretted not shamelessly begging to follow this big brother... He didn't even know this man's name or what he looked like...

Wang Tao drove the pickup to the main gate, where four zombies were waiting.

Since he had saved Wu Fei's life, he might as well see it through and deal with these four zombies too.

Within a few minutes, all the zombies died beneath his Claw Hammer.

Obtained: Purified Water (Small) ×4

Wang Tao discovered that zombies killed inside the Water Plant seemed to always drop Purified Water! If he ran short on water in the future, could he come to the Water Plant to stock up?

As he pondered this, Wang Tao locked the Water Plant's main gate again.

Wu Fei was basically safe inside the Water Plant now.

Boom—

The pickup's engine gave a low rumble as it left the Water Plant.

From the small building, Wu Fei watched the departing vehicle and murmured, "Big brother, if fate allows it, we'll meet again. If I'm still alive, I, Wu Fei, will definitely repay you!"

Inside the pickup, after driving beyond the Water Plant's grounds, Wang Tao immediately injected the Stealth Potion (Medium) into his arm.

That familiar feeling returned.

His body grew colder and colder, his breathing slower and slower, and his limbs heavier and heavier.

"Whew... This feels awful!"

Injecting the Stealth Potion itself wasn't particularly painful. What felt bad was the loss of strength—after using the potion, his power would decrease somewhat.

Even though the decrease wasn't great, it still made Wang Tao uncomfortable since he had grown used to having strength. In the apocalypse, no strength meant no sense of security.

Once the Stealth Potion took effect, Wang Tao drove slower and slower. Some nearby zombies noticed the vehicle, but they didn't go berserk. They merely approached slowly with curiosity. Before they could reach it, the pickup had already driven away...

This time, Wang Tao didn't take the Outer Ring Road. There was a monster with ten thousand Health Bar in the woods beside that road, and he didn't dare use it.

The Stealth Potion lasted for an hour. Even if he drove slowly, he could still make it home.

But before returning, Wang Tao had one more thing to do: get some gasoline.

When he passed a small parking lot and saw those intact vehicles, Wang Tao had an idea.

There were no zombies here, so it was the perfect place to siphon some gas.

He had taken three fuel cans from the small restaurant before. Only two of them contained fuel, and the remaining empty can could be used for gasoline.

Also, while he had been outside these past few days, he had drunk one container of Purified Water (Small). That empty container could be used for gasoline too.

He got out with his tools. After spending some time on it, Wang Tao filled both the twenty-liter fuel can and the five-liter water container with gasoline.

"Haha, now I can make Molotov Cocktails! I'm suddenly looking forward to running into another Hammer Zombie..."

Happiness District.

"Knock, knock, knock—bitch, hurry up and open the door!"

Listening to the pounding outside the bedroom, Ding Yuqin, pale and haggard, hugged her knees and curled up in the corner of the room, her eyes filled with despair.

"Wang Tao, you really abandoned me... Where are you... I hate you... Sob..."
