"If that’s the case, you’re really successful, at least I didn’t realize your existence until after I had eliminated all the zombies," said Lin Fan.
Lin Fan was talking to a zombie.
He knew that the other might not understand him, but there was also the possibility that it could. Maybe the zombie hadn’t expected that all the zombies it summoned would be hunted down by him.
Looking at the piles of shredded zombie corpses everywhere, honestly, he didn’t find the hunting tiring at all. In fact, he was even a bit excited. The other side had really done him a favor by gathering all the zombies together for him to slowly chop up. If he were to hunt so many zombies by himself, it would really take some time.
The Corpse King Wang Fei was watching Lin Fan all along.
Without any movement.
Its quietness was terrifying, and it was the only zombie Lin Fan had seen so far that was this tranquil.
Even the rational Officer Huang would occasionally ’heh heh’ at him, expressing his affection.
Having all the summoned zombies hunted down by himself, anyone else would have roared a couple of times.
Lin Fan asked a very simple question, one even a three-year-old child should know.
"Is your IQ that low? Being able to summon zombies, you must be a high-level one, but unexpectedly you can’t even answer such a simple question," continued Lin Fan, talking to himself. Perhaps the zombie hadn’t anticipated encountering such a human.
The beautiful morning was spoiled by the arrival of the horde, a situation that certainly delighted Lin Fan. However, for the survivors living in Sunshine Shelter, it was a scare.
He didn’t like his joy to be built on the fright of others.
He stretched out his hand.
He had thought there would be resistance, but he didn’t expect to grab the zombie’s neck so easily and simply.
The viscous liquid made Lin Fan feel sick.
He carried the zombie to Zhu Cheng.
"Can you see what type of zombie he is?" asked Lin Fan.
Zhu Cheng shook his head, staring straight at the Corpse King Wang Fei, his eyes revealing shock, "Lin, its situation seems to be wrong, I can only see a bit of information, a puppet?"
"A puppet?" Lin Fan was surprised.
"Yes, a puppet. My ability has been enhanced, I can see the data of zombie evolution, the direction of evolution, but there’s nothing on this zombie, just puppet information," replied Zhu Cheng, who had never seen such a zombie before. Even ordinary zombies had more information than this one.
"I understand now," Lin Fan said as if he had figured out the situation. The true manipulating zombie had not yet appeared, sending a puppet zombie instead. He didn’t have too many thoughts about it.
He jumped down from the rooftop with the zombie, landing on the ground.
"You go back and tell your boss, I want to meet it. No other intention, just want to have a chat," Lin Fan said with a smile on his face, speaking very gently to it.
Such an attitude, such an expression, anyone who saw it would think he was a friendly person, probably not a bad one.
If this zombie believed Lin Fan’s words and turned to leave, he would secretly follow behind, all the way to its den.
A zombie capable of triggering such a horde was truly dangerous. Its existence in this world was a disaster for all living survivors. He was willing to go against his own beliefs to eliminate it for the sake of other survivors.
As he finished speaking.
He noticed that the zombie was still staring at him dumbfounded.
Still without movement.
Thinking about it really made him feel helpless.
Since such a strategy was useless, he had to think of something else. In an instant, an idea flashed through his mind.
"I give you another chance. The number of zombies you summoned is not many. Continue to summon zombies. I’ll wait here for you to come over," Lin Fan said clearly, willing to give the other party another opportunity.
He really hoped that the other party would summon all the zombies from Huang City. Maybe it would be a daunting prospect, but he was truly ready to accept all the zombies from Huang City swarming towards him, so he could clean them all up in a very short time.
Completely fulfilling his first wish.
To have Huang City free of zombies, taking the first step towards rebuilding its prosperity.
The previously motionless zombie finally moved.
But its behavior was a bit special. The zombie slowly raised its hands and plunged them violently into its own neck, making a ’thwack’ sound as it twisted its head off.
"This..." Lin Fan sighed.
Perfectly healthy and it just killed itself.
Looking into the distance.
This scene showed that the manipulative zombie behind the scenes was much shrewder than he had thought. He hoped that apart from special cases like Officer Huang, other zombies wouldn’t have intelligence and reasoning. Otherwise, it was truly too terrifying for the living survivors.
But hope was always just hope.
Reality was what he needed to face.
He cut open the zombie’s head to see what kind of crystal could create such a zombie.
Shaking his head in disappointment, it was all sticky mush.
"Quite a peculiar zombie, huh? A puppet controlled by another zombie, then where is the real body of this zombie?" Lin Fan wondered.
He wanted to know where this mastermind zombie really was.
Whether it was in Huang City.
