🏃‍♂️Where in Hell-A is Jamal?

Once you’ve moved to the Halperin hotel’s zombie-free zone, you’ll head to your destination and move on to the next level.

🔍Sniff out clues to Jamal whereabout at the security guard huts

If you go to the front of the security guard hut, there are 2 bursters on the left, as shown in the screenshot below. If you defeat the Buster first, a red circled alarm will sound on the right side and a large number of zombies will come rushing at you, so it is recommended to destroy the alarm first before defeating the Bursters.

If you defeat the Busters even if the alarm doesn’t go off, the gas cylinder in front of hut will explode and the zombies will come rushing in.

At the beginning of the game’s release, zombies didn’t come out unless the alarm sounded, but this has changed now, so the developers can change it in any way they want.

🔓How to open Maglock Doors

The lock in the security guard hut has an alarm as shown in the left screenshot below, and opens when you destroy the two panels connected to the green and blue wires. Follow the green line to find a panel behind the hut, and the blue wire leads to the inside of the hut, which you can destroy by throwing melee weapons from the window or shooting it with a ranged weapon.

Once inside, you’ll find the 2nd clue, “Employee Vehicle Register”.

If you go to “2️⃣Security guard hut”, there is a walker knocking on the door. If you kill them one by one, you’ll get two walkers, then a runner, then a shambler, then an Inferno crasher, then a screamer, and if an alarm goes off, the zombies below you will come out all at once, there are more.

As you get closer to the boss fight in this quest, there are zombies that resist, such as screamers.

⚔️Take down the zomebies around Jamal’s truck

If you go to your destination, where the road has collapsed, there will be an explosion and a Putrefied Slobber “Sunbather”.

Putrefied Slobber is immune to Puncturator. You can lure him to a place where electricity is connected to the nearby running water, or you can kill him as you like~

🎯Jamal (Riot Gear Walker)

Riot Gear Walker is recommended to be defeated with brass knuckles. Hitting him more than three times will speed up your hitting, and if you focus on his legs, after a while his armor will be destroyed and he will quickly fall down, making it easier to defeat and has good impact.

Rare brass knuckles, You need to match level.
