It wasn't that they didn't believe Dong Giai, but that in their opinion, this was simply impossible. He had been beaten into such a state. How could he not be dead? If he wasn't dead, how terrifying would that be?
Sure enough.
But at this moment, the seemingly muddy flesh and blood were churning. Diep Thien calmly took aim again, condensing a god-child's shot. A god-child's shot with extremely strong destructive power sped towards that pile of mud.
Tong Dao, who hadn't moved at all, stood in front of Tu Hoan. His arm turned into a flesh shield. Upon impact, the bullet instantly exploded, forming a strong shockwave.
"Haha, you scared me to death. I thought I was going to die." Tu Hoan's teasing voice came from within the dust.
Gradually, the dust dissipated.
Tu Hoan looked at his own severely damaged clothes, showing a very helpless expression. He touched the device in front of his chest. Fortunately, it wasn't hit. He could still continue to broadcast.
He looked up at Diep Thien on the roof not far away.
"What a powerful ability. Silent and traceless, invisible and formless. Is the god so powerful with just a gun?" Tu Hoan said.
Diep Thien frowned. The situation was beyond her imagination. She had thought it would be easy to deal with the opponent, but she didn't expect that even after blowing off half his head, he was still fine. This was truly terrifying.
Tong Dao said, "Stop playing. Get serious. Since we've been exposed, there's no need to hide. Before that guy gets back, let's eliminate them."
"Alright," Tu Hoan nodded in agreement. After they finished speaking.
They saw the two of them roar, green veins appearing on their faces, their backs expanding, and their arms and thighs also expanding, tearing their tattered clothes. The bulging muscles were full of explosive power.
Their feet pressed on the ground, and the ground caved in, showing cracks. The current situation made everyone solemn.
"Be careful. These two guys are very terrifying now." Chuc Thanh's information ability allowed him to see things that ordinary people couldn't see. He could tell at a glance the changes in these two people in front of him.
As soon as he finished speaking.
Tong Dao and Tu Hoan, like two cheetahs, charged at Old Chung and Dam Thanh respectively. The explosive speed was much more terrifying than imagined.
Clang!
The two sides collided in an instant, creating a terrifying impact. The deafening roar was ear-splitting.
Diep Thien continued to fire.
But this time, the sneak attack was not successful. Tu Hoan seemed to have a keen sense and directly raised his hand, a flesh shield appearing. Even though the flesh shield was shattered, splashing blood, the other party still acted as if nothing had happened, crazily entangled with Dam Thanh.
The scene before them was being broadcast live.
The members of the organization on the other side watched the current situation with solemn expressions.
"This survivor with the gun is definitely a force-type Awakened one. His ability stage is very high, definitely at the fifth stage. And in the era of peace, he must have been a martial artist. His moves are extremely exquisite. It's not so simple for Tu Hoan to get an advantage over him."
"The strength of the Awakened ones in the Sunshine Shelter in Hoang City is much stronger than we imagined. Not only is that Lam Pham our biggest threat, but these Awakened ones are also."
As they observed and analyzed. The situation on the scene became more and more intense.
Dam Thanh and Old Chung were evenly matched with the opponent. Neither side fell into a disadvantage.
On the roof.
Lam Pham, who had received the call, had already arrived at the scene long ago. When he learned that some ill-intentioned guys had come here, he had immediately rushed over, trying to get to the shelter as soon as possible.
He knew that the shelter was guarded by a group of Awakened ones, so it should be fine. But he was also afraid that something bad might happen, and he would regret it.
Fortunately, when he arrived at the scene, things were not as bad as he had imagined.
On the contrary, Old Chung and Dam Thanh were engaged in a very fierce battle with the opponent.
He didn't show up to stop them, or to kill the opponent at will. Instead, he watched quietly.
"Not all zombies can be used to hone one's own strength. Old Chung and Dam Thanh's strength has indeed become stronger." Lam Pham also observed, acting as a spectator, watching with great interest, and occasionally making relatively pertinent comments on their battle situation.
Old Chung's progress was great. After being taught by Dam Thanh, he had really improved by leaps and bounds, far beyond imagination.
At the same time, he looked at the two guys with ill intentions.
They had the same aura as the guy he had met before.
"I didn't expect the Sunshine Shelter in Hoang City to have really become their target." He knew that this day would definitely come, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
At this time. In the classroom.
Dong Dong tilted his head, viscous liquid flowing from his mouth. He looked at the blackboard curiously. Beside him, Phi Phi would occasionally wipe the corner of Dong Dong's mouth. As the big sister, she had to take good care of this group of younger brothers and sisters.
She had a serum in her bag.
It was for emergencies. Although it was unlikely to happen, if she was accidentally caught and bitten by Dong Dong, she would have to get an injection immediately. Not only did she have to be careful, but she also had to be careful of her other little sisters.
Phi Phi, sitting on the side, was thinking about what kind of food her mother would make for her in the afternoon.
When she went out in the morning, she had told her mother that she wanted to have fish soup for lunch.
Her mother should have kept it in mind. Just as she was thinking about these things. Dong Dong, with his tilted head, suddenly stood up. "Argh argh."
Dong Dong let out a low roar, climbed onto the table, and in the sight of many of his brothers and sisters, he hurriedly ran towards the outside of the classroom.
"Dong Dong..." Phi Phi hurriedly followed.
Khau Bang was also a little anxious and wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Van Van.
"Teacher, you have a baby in your belly. I'll just go and have a look."
Ever since Van Van awakened her psionic ability, her thinking had become more and more mature. Seeing Dong Dong suddenly become like this, she knew that something must have happened.
Otherwise, Dong Dong would definitely not have such a reaction. Outside.
"Dong Dong, don't run! Wait..." Phi Phi chased after him from behind, shouting. Van Van's psionic power took off. When she reached behind Phi Phi, she used her psionic power to envelop Phi Phi. "Sister Phi Phi, let's follow behind and see what Dong Dong wants to do."
The surrounding survivors looked on in confusion, not knowing what was happening. Why did a few good children suddenly run out of the classroom?
Dinh Dinh shouted, "Sister Phi Phi, little sister Van Van, wait for me! I run so slowly!"
"Sister Dinh Dinh, you wait for us to come back in the classroom," Van Van said. "No, I want to be with you."
Van Van had no choice but to envelop Sister Dinh Dinh with her psionic power as well.
During this time, Van Van's psionic power had improved a lot. When she had nothing to do, she would eat crystals. From her initial resistance and difficulty swallowing, to her current habit, it all showed that Van Van's ability had definitely improved unimaginably.
"What are these kids doing?" Captain Loi was very puzzled.
Ha Khanh saw Dong Dong running in front. "Did something happen? Dong Dong is a zombie. His senses should be very strong."
Captain Loi looked at Ha Khanh. "Go, hurry and call some people to go with them and see what happened."
"Strange, my Brother Lam, why hasn't he come yet?"
Chuc Thanh was very puzzled. According to his thinking, Brother Lam would definitely be back very quickly. He would never give these two guys a chance to be arrogant. But until now, he still hadn't come back. This had to be said, it was really strange.
Could it be that Brother Lam got lost?
Don't be ridiculous. How could such an unreliable thing happen to my Brother Lam?
He looked around and really saw Brother Lam with his arms crossed on the roof of a building. Just as he was about to shout, he instantly covered his mouth and didn't make a single sound.
In his perception, Lam Pham had already appeared. Why didn't he make a move to deal with these two guys?
There must be a purpose. Thinking of this...
Chuc Thanh nodded in understanding, pretending not to know, and just watched quietly, waiting for Brother Lam to take the initiative to show himself.
Lam Pham saw Chuc Thanh seeing him and smiled and nodded in greeting. Then he continued to watch.
The battle on the scene was within his expectations.
Old Chung and Dam Thanh were facing these two guys. At first, they could be said to be evenly matched, but gradually, he found that except for Dam Thanh, Old Chung was at a disadvantage. And this was even with Diep Thien occasionally providing sneak attacks.
However, this situation did not affect the overall situation.
It was not something that could be ended in a short period of time.
"Ah..."
But at this moment, he saw Dong Dong actually running towards them, with Van Van, Phi Phi, and Dinh Dinh following behind.
These three little girls were flying in the sky.
Thinking of how Van Van couldn't float perfectly at the beginning, he didn't expect that in such a short period of time, Van Van could not only float perfectly on her own, but could also carry two people.
This showed that Van Van's improvement was great. "Argh argh..."
Dong Dong let out a low roar.
Old Chung and Tong Dao clashed and separated, landing on the ground. He saw Dong Dong, who wanted to charge at the other party, with his peripheral vision. With quick eyes and hands, he stopped Dong Dong. "Dong Dong, what are you doing? Don't go forward."
Dong Dong, who was stopped, continued to roar at the two of them. Tong Dao saw Dong Dong, and his expression changed slightly.
"A zombie that can live in peace with humans..." Tong Dao had read the Zombie Illustrated Handbook and knew about Officer Hoang's matter. A zombie that didn't want to gnaw on human flesh and blood, but instead lived in peace with humans, was really a bit unexpected.
"Tu Hoan, look at this child," he reminded Tu Hoan, who was in battle.
Tu Hoan pushed Dam Thanh away. The camera in front of his chest aimed at Dong Dong, and the image was immediately transmitted back.
"A child zombie. This is a zombie with reason. It's really amazing." Tu Hoan did not put Dong Dong in his eyes, just carefully observing him as if he were a magical item.
Dong Dong, who was stopped by Old Chung, had green veins appearing on his face. He roared fiercely, and an invisible force poured out. The ground in front of him cracked inch by inch. The invisible force, like a great mountain, slammed towards the two of them.
Tong Dao and Tu Hoan, in the moment they felt this force, their faces suddenly changed greatly. But it was too late. The unstoppable force directly sent the two of them flying, slamming into a wall. The wall instantly cracked like a spider's web, densely packed.
This was enough to prove how powerful this force was.
Old Chung and the others had their mouths agape, looking at Dong Dong in great shock. They didn't expect Dong Dong to be so powerful.
The two terrifying guys who were in a stalemate with them. Were just sent flying by Dong Dong like that.
"Psionic power. Dong Dong has absorbed psionic power and has actually developed to this state." Lam Pham was also very shocked. He was very happy with Dong Dong's performance.
Tong Dao and Tu Hoan were not injured at all. They were still very normal.
"This is the power of psionic power," Tong Dao said.
"Yes, it's the power of psionic power. It seems we wanted to kill them with human bodies, but it's impossible. If we fused with this little zombie's genes, do you think we would have such powerful strength?"
"Hahaha... maybe we would." In an instant.
Tong Dao and Tu Hoan roared, their whole bodies starting to expand. Bang, bang, bang. Flesh and blood exploded.
Extreme gene mutation, began to undergo uncontrollable changes.
Lam Pham knew that this situation was extremely terrifying. It was just like the guy he had encountered. When he turned into this state, his strength would be enhanced to the extreme.
The flesh and blood of the two of them were fusing, their bodies were constantly growing. In a flash, the original two people had disappeared, and what was left was an indescribable mass of flesh and blood.
And the device surrounded by the flesh and blood could still clearly see the surrounding situation.
The people in the organization shook their heads.
"A failed product. When faced with external pressure, they can't help but want to let their genes mutate, turning into a monster that can't return to its original form."
Diep Thien fired, and the god-child's shot did have destructive power on the mass of flesh and blood. But for such a huge mass of flesh and blood, this little bit of damage was nothing.
"Die, die, die!"
The fusion monster waved countless flesh and blood tentacles, crashing down on the humans in front of it.
Old Chung and Dam Thanh waved their weapons, constantly cutting these tentacles.
And Dong Dong constantly dodged, not letting a single tentacle touch him.
Chuc Thanh looked at Brother Lam's position and really wanted to ask, at a time like this, was it time to make a move? But Brother Lam was still standing there without moving, without any reaction.
He thought... could it be that he wanted them to solve it themselves? But.
When danger comes, one often cannot rely on others. To be safe, one must rely on oneself. Brother Lam had let their strength improve. Perhaps it was to let them rely on their own efforts.
"Ah... so scary." Dinh Dinh trembled in fear.
Phi Phi hugged Dinh Dinh. "Don't be afraid. Sister Phi Phi is here. No matter what demons or ghosts, you don't have to be afraid."
Although she said that, Phi Phi's slender little legs were still trembling. They might not be afraid of zombies anymore.
But the thing in front of them was extremely ugly. It was very normal for a child to be scared when they saw it.
But their weakness seemed to have been sensed by the fused flesh and blood monster. In an instant, a large number of tentacles, like pythons, whipped towards Phi Phi and the others.
"Be careful..." Old Chung shouted, wanting to charge towards Phi Phi and the others, but was entangled by more tentacles.
Lam Pham, standing on the roof, slightly raised the tip of his toes. His hand was already on Frostmourne behind his back. He was waiting, waiting for Van Van to give him a surprise.
Van Van, can you appropriately show me some of your abilities...
He thought to himself.
Just as the tentacles were about to wrap around them. Van Van's eyes gradually became sharp. A ripple spread out.
The tentacles that were whipping over at high speed, as if they had hit a barrier, were stopped in mid-air.
Van Van's psionic power erupted.
This shelter is really not serious.
At this moment, Van Van made no move.
She stood in front of Dinh Dinh and Phi Phi. The space in front of her was filled with a strong ripple of power. The flesh and blood tentacles that were coming through the air were imprisoned in mid-air, unable to move a muscle.
Old Chung and the others knew about Van Van's situation.
A psionic Awakened one, a very rare ability. She had never used it before, but with Lam Pham's special care, she had been eating crystals from time to time.
Her ability had definitely been improving by leaps and bounds.
"Wow, little sister Van Van is so amazing," Dinh Dinh exclaimed in praise.
Phi Phi shouted, "Little sister Van Van, beat this monster!"
Children's perception of danger was relatively one-sided. Seeing that Van Van could hold the opponent down, their courage shot up like a rocket.
If you're not afraid, just do it.
Lam Pham, on the high-rise building, watched with a focused gaze and nodded with great satisfaction. Van Van's ability was progressing step by step, and each stage was perfect. It was a very normal situation for her to erupt with such power now.
Gradually, the scattered rubble on the ground seemed to be affected by some kind of ripple and actually floated up. And Van Van walked forward step by step. With each step, that invisible pressure was like a great mountain, fiercely suppressing the flesh and blood monster.
The flesh and blood tentacles were suppressed and constantly exploded.
The live broadcast device embedded in the flesh and blood recorded the scene before them.
"This is a psionic Awakened one. I didn't expect a child to have such powerful strength. The overall strength of the Sunshine Shelter in Hoang City is beyond imagination."
"The two of them are finished. It's just a pity that I couldn't see Lam Pham's strength."
At the same time, in the distance of the live broadcast image, the figure standing on the roof also attracted their attention. The image was enlarged, and it was unexpectedly Lam Pham with Frostmourne on his back, watching here.
At this time.
The flesh and blood monster still wanted to struggle, but for the flesh and blood monster, its whole body was compressed and unable to move. That force was pressing down on its body.
A faint light flickered in Van Van's eyes.
Psionic power erupted. With the flesh and blood monster as the center, a whirlwind of airflow was formed. The speed of rotation became faster and faster. With a bang, the flesh and blood monster exploded, turning into a blood mist that splattered all over the ground.
The sudden bloody scene scared Phi Phi and Dinh Dinh, who suddenly froze for a moment.
After all, such a scene was still relatively bloody.
On the contrary, Van Van was very calm, without any panicked expression. After awakening her psionic ability, her thinking had gradually matured. She knew the situation outside. With such an ability, she wanted to protect everyone, to protect her home.
Being timid was useless.
She had to make herself strong.
So after killing the flesh and blood monster, she was not afraid at all, and even a little excited. She felt that she had really done it.
"Van Van, amazing."
Dam Thanh gave Van Van a thumbs-up. He couldn't help but be amazed at the terror of this ability. It was too strong. They would have had to risk their lives to kill the flesh and blood monster, but Van Van only needed to move her mind, and she could flatten the opponent.
"Yes, it's too strong."
"This monster is very difficult for us to deal with, but in Van Van's hands, it can't last long."
Faced with everyone's praise.
Van Van was a little shy and rubbed her head.
"Van Van, amazing."
Lam Pham slowly walked over, clapping gently. He walked to Van Van's side and gently patted her head. "What are your thoughts on facing such a monster for the first time?"
Van Van raised her head and said, "I hope I can use my ability to protect everyone."
Lam Pham smiled and said, "You were just protecting everyone. You did a good job. But in the future, Van Van, it's better to focus on your studies. Just leave these things to us uncles and aunts."
"Yes," she nodded.
Co Hang walked to Lam Pham's side and said, "A mysterious force has targeted us. It's just that the information the other party has revealed is very little. There's nowhere to start."
"It's alright. Let's take it slow. These two guys are exactly the same as the guy I met a while ago. I don't know what kind of force created these terrifying guys. Their harm is higher than zombies." Lam Pham had seen his strength. Old Chung and the others had also personally experienced it. The monster created by the fusion of mutated genes was truly terrifying.
An invisible pressure fell on them.
There was an indescribable worry.
Lam Pham said, "Dong Dong suddenly ran over. Is it because he sensed their presence?"
Co Hang looked at Dong Dong, who had calmed down, and thought for a moment, "Yes, maybe so. Dong Dong has never been like this before. He must have sensed their problem."
Lam Pham smiled and said, "As expected of the child brought up by Officer Hoang. He has some of Officer Hoang's skills."
When he was cleaning up the zombies in the city outside, what he feared most was naturally that the shelter would be in danger. Although he could rush back in a very short time, in the process of returning, it was inevitable that some people would be accidentally injured or killed.
But now there was no need to worry.
Old Chung, Dam Thanh, and the others were very strong. It was enough to protect the shelter.
More importantly... Van Van and Dong Dong were also not to be underestimated.
They could be the future main force of the shelter.
. . .
In the wilderness outside, a motorcycle was speeding on the road. The surrounding scenery was very desolate. The trees and plants had withered, and the soil on the ground seemed to have been corroded by something, emitting a smoky mist.
Ngo Hao didn't dare to stop here.
After all, a strange and indescribable atmosphere permeated the place.
A long time passed.
He supported himself with one foot on the ground and looked at the situation not far away. A look of shock appeared on his face. He never thought that in such an apocalypse, a seemingly post-apocalyptic shelter would appear.
Standing on a high place, he could see the people walking in the shelter.
"No way, there are people here?"
Inconceivable.
Then he looked around. Although there were surrounding walls protecting it, if it was targeted by zombies, even with surrounding walls, it would be of no use. He couldn't figure it out.
But he still wanted to go and have a look.
Ngo Hao rode his motorcycle towards the shelter.
He came to the entrance.
A closed metal gate blocked the way. The patrolling survivors saw Ngo Hao, who had ridden his motorcycle here. The metal gate slowly opened, and two survivors walked out.
"Hello, welcome to the apocalypse relief station. Please undergo an inspection. No weapons are allowed to be brought in."
Faced with such a request, Ngo Hao could understand.
When entering a strange place, it was a must to undergo an inspection. He held out his arms and waited for the other party's inspection.
"Don't worry, I don't have any weapons on me."
After the two survivors checked, they indeed didn't find any weapons on Ngo Hao. They also found a satellite phone, which made the two survivors a little confused. Damn it, it's the apocalypse, and he doesn't carry a weapon, but carries a phone. They didn't know what this guy was thinking.
Just as Ngo Hao was about to have some conversation with the other party, the two directly pulled his motorcycle away, and even took the satellite phone, leaving him standing there in a daze.
"Hey, excuse me, what should I do? Where are you taking my motorcycle?"
"And my phone..."
He asked, but the two didn't pay any attention to Ngo Hao at all.
"Holy shit, what on earth is going on?"
Ngo Hao looked at the pedestrians around him with bewilderment.
"Hello." "Hello."
This group of pedestrians greeted him with a smile, looking very friendly. It was just that when he wanted to say something to them, this group of people walked very hurriedly, as if they had something to do and needed to handle it urgently.
But at this moment.
A woman walked up to Ngo Hao.
"You're a new survivor, right?"
This was a young woman, probably in her twenties, wearing a camouflage combat suit. Even in the apocalypse, this woman in front of him still had elegant makeup on her face.
Ngo Hao said, "Hello, my name is Ngo Hao. I came to see if there was a shelter here. I didn't plan to stay here. They took my motorcycle. Can they return it to me so I can leave this place?"
The woman said, "Sorry, this is not within my jurisdiction. If you want your motorcycle back, you have to find the person in charge of this matter. I'm here just to let you know the rules of this place and what you need to do. If you want to survive, you have to rely on your own efforts."
"Then who do I look for?" Ngo Hao felt that this shelter was a bit strange. He couldn't say exactly what was strange about it, but it was just very strange.
"You'll know soon. This book has the rules of this place. You'll know after you read it." The woman handed Ngo Hao a palm-sized book.
Then she turned and left.
Ngo Hao, holding the book, had his mouth agape, wanting to say something, but the woman had already walked into the distance. Countless words could only be choked back in his heart, turning into two words.
"Holy shit..."
Ngo Hao looked at the surrounding wooden huts, falling into a deep bewilderment. Finally, he went to a corner, squatted there, and flipped through the book, wanting to see what was recorded inside.
A while later.
After reading the book, Ngo Hao's heart could not calm down for a long time.
The management of this shelter was very strict. The shelter would not provide any food for free to the survivors who came here. It could only guarantee their personal safety. If they wanted food, they had to find a job in the shelter and prove their own value.
"I want to leave this place. I'm here to find my mother," Ngo Hao said to himself.
Suddenly. Creak!
The door of a room opened.
Ngo Hao looked up and met the eyes of a girl with a crutch. As if feeling that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Ngo Hao smiled politely.
The girl with the crutch nodded. Seeing that Ngo Hao was very unfamiliar, "Are you new?"
"Yes, new. I don't know the situation here. Can you tell me about it?" Ngo Hao felt that to know more thoroughly, it was best to have someone from here tell him.
The woman looked around, lowered her head and thought for a moment, and finally nodded. "Come in with me."
"Thank you." Ngo Hao was overjoyed. He had finally met someone who looked relatively normal.
He entered the room.
Ngo Hao sized up the environment in the room. It was very simple, with no decorations. But to have a place to stay in the apocalypse was already very good. There was no need to pursue those messy things.
"Thank you. My name is Ngo Hao." Ngo Hao introduced himself.
The woman said, "You can call me Little Hue."
Ngo Hao said, "Little Hue, can you tell me the situation here? Why do I feel that the people here are a little strange?"
Little Hue said, "I've been here for about a month. At first, I was like you. But I got used to it later. The people living here all need to work. Only by working can you eat. If you don't work, you'll starve to death, and no one will care."
"I can understand that." Ngo Hao nodded. He could understand the situation of working to eat. After all, it was the apocalypse now. No one would be willing to support idle personnel.
Little Hue continued, "The founder of this shelter is named Truong So Thuy. The survivors who come here all work for him. As long as you work honestly, you can be guaranteed."
Ngo Hao had never heard of the name, but from this, he knew that this shelter should be under his dictatorship.
"Don't guess randomly. It's not as scary as you think. The survivors living here are all very happy, and Truong So is also very caring towards us." Little Hue saw Ngo Hao frowning, thinking he was overthinking things, and said anxiously.
Ngo Hao said, "Then I want to leave this place. How do I get my things back from them?"
Little Hue said differently, "It's so dangerous outside. Why do you want to go out? Isn't it good to stay here?"
Ngo Hao shook his head and said, "I came out to find my relatives."
As for Ngo Hao's words about finding his relatives, Little Hue didn't say anything more. It was just that she felt it was very difficult to find his relatives. Or rather, from the moment the apocalypse broke out, his relatives might have already become food for the zombies.
"I'm not very clear about this. Because the survivors who come here are all willing to stay here and don't want to go outside," Little Hue said.
However, at this moment.
A knock on the door was heard. "Is anyone home?"
"Yes, come in," Little Hue replied.
Creak.
A man in a camouflage uniform walked in, holding a plate. Seeing Ngo Hao appear, he smiled and nodded, then placed the plate in his hand in front of Little Hue.
"You didn't take your food at the canteen. I know you sprained your ankle, so I brought you your food."
"Thank you."
"Alright. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."
The man in the camouflage uniform turned and left.
Ngo Hao looked at the food on the plate. There was something similar to sausages, two of them in total, and a few pieces of green vegetables.
"Is this meat?"
Little Hue said, "Yes, it's sausage. The food here is very good. There's always meat to eat. You haven't eaten either, right? This one is for you."
"No need. You eat. I found some food elsewhere when I came," Ngo Hao said.
"Alright then."
Little Hue took a bite of the sausage. It was delicious. She showed a very satisfied expression. As she was eating, she looked down and took out a short black hair from the sausage.
"Auntie is really unhygienic. Sigh, forget it. It's the apocalypse. Who cares about these things?"
Ngo Hao, on the side, watched Little Hue eating with a greasy mouth. His impression of this shelter had changed a little. Maybe it wasn't as bad as he had thought.
Not long after, after finishing her meal, Little Hue drank a cup of water and showed a happy expression.
"I'm full. That was great."
"Yes, being able to eat your fill in the apocalypse is indeed a very difficult thing."
"I actually advise you not to leave in a hurry. You can stay here for a while first. There are many survivors here. Maybe your relatives are here."
Ngo Hao thought for a moment and felt that what Little Hue said was very reasonable.
It seemed really not bad.
"Alright then. I'll stay here for a while first."
Little Hue said, "I'll take you to find a house. If you're lucky, you might find a vacant house."
"Are there vacant houses here?" Ngo Hao asked doubtfully.
"There should be."
"Then where did the people who lived there before go?"
Little Hue thought for a moment and said, "Maybe they left the shelter, or maybe they got sick. In this era of the apocalypse where it's very difficult to find medicine, even a minor illness can be fatal."
Ngo Hao heard this, nodded, and didn't say anything more.
Yes, it was true.
Even a minor illness could often be fatal.
Originally, Little Hue wanted to help him find a house, but he refused. With a sprained ankle, she should rest well. After reading the book, he knew that to find a vacant house, he had to find the person specifically responsible for this.
Since he had decided to stay here for a while.
He temporarily didn't think about getting his motorcycle and satellite phone back.
After a while of being busy.
Ngo Hao was assigned a room, a dozen wooden rooms away from Little Hue's. It wasn't too far. He entered the house. There was a bed, a table, and nothing else.
There was already a mattress on the bed, but it looked relatively old. He picked it up and sniffed it.
A man's familiar smell.
The person who lived here before should be a man. As for where this person went, he might have died of illness, or left the shelter.
He just went to sleep. He had been outside all this time and hadn't had a good sleep.
He fell onto the bed and looked at the ceiling.
"Mom, where on earth are you..."
Ngo Hao thought of his mother, and a suspicion arose in his heart. But he didn't want to believe this suspicion. He always held the belief that his mother was alive and continued to search for her in the apocalypse.
Gradually, perhaps he was really a little tired. He closed his eyes and entered a sweet dream. All the necessary things were forgotten by him. Whatever happened, he would talk about it after he woke up.
Early morning.
Ngo Hao opened his eyes. His mental state was very good. He got dressed and got out of bed. Since he was preparing to stay here for a short period of time, it was better to find a job, at least to ensure his food and drink.
He pushed the door open. There were very few people walking. They might all be busy with their own things.
He walked towards Little Hue's residence. When he met people, he would smile and greet them, and the other party would also smile in return.
He came to Little Hue's residence.
"Little Hue, where are you?" Ngo Hao stood outside the door and shouted.
There was no answer from the room.
Ngo Hao was very puzzled. He didn't think much about it and pushed the door open, finding the room empty, without even a shadow of a ghost.
"Where did she go?"
He thought, would Little Hue go to work? But thinking about it, it was also impossible. With Little Hue's injured foot, she should be resting at home. How could she be working?
But at this moment, the survivor next door to Little Hue pushed the door open, holding a sausage in his hand, enjoying his meal.
"Hello, excuse me, have you seen the person who lives here?" Ngo Hao asked.
The other party smiled and said, "Sorry, I haven't been paying attention."
"Alright then."
Ngo Hao temporarily gave up on the idea of finding a job, thinking of finding out where Little Hue went in the shelter first.
. . .
Phong Dai City.
The zombies in this city had long been crazily swept clean by a certain human.
Hue Minh Street.
This street used to be very prosperous, with all kinds of delicacies. But with the outbreak of the apocalypse, let alone this street, the entire city had exploded in an instant.
Lam Pham walked out of a small supermarket, holding a bottle of mineral water. He raised his head and gulped it down.
The surroundings were littered with the bloody corpses of zombies that had been cut in half.
"Argh argh."
At the corner ahead, a zombie slowly swayed over. The corpses of its compatriots in front of it did not scare it. Its pale eyes stared at Lam Pham, who was drinking water.
In the zombie's mind, this was delicious flesh and blood.
And it had seen it alone. What a happy thing this was.
"Argh argh."
This zombie roared ferociously, taking cheerful steps, and charged at Lam Pham like a mad dog.
Lam Pham casually raised Frostmourne. The moment the zombie got close, he cut off its head with a single slash, then stepped aside, letting the still-inertial zombie rush past him.
After finishing the water, he screwed the cap back on, found a trash can, and threw the mineral water bottle in. Even though it was the apocalypse now, he couldn't just litter.
He walked forward.
"I wonder if there are any other survivors. This city has such a large population. There should be a few."
Lam Pham muttered to himself, hoping to see some survivors, waving a flag or releasing smoke on the roof of a building, asking for help.
But the possibility was probably very slim.
If there was a Creator in this city, with his intelligence, he would also know that there were humans surviving here.
Suddenly.
Whoosh!
Lam Pham sensed a movement behind him and turned his head, but besides the zombie corpses on the ground, there was nothing.
"What the hell was that?"
Lam Pham was very calm.
He shook his head.
He continued to walk forward. If there really was something appearing and disappearing like a ghost, they would eventually meet. The city was now full of zombies. It was a very normal thing for all kinds of strange zombies to appear.
"That feeling just now, it should be a very fast zombie. Have I seen it before?"
He was a little puzzled about this.
A speed-type zombie couldn't do this kind of thing.
It should be impossible for a new type of zombie he had never seen before. After hunting so many zombies, the species were all there. It was very unlikely that there would be a new type.
Whoosh!
There was movement behind him again.
If any ordinary person encountered this situation, they would definitely be scared out of their wits. After all, a city in the apocalypse was often the most terrifying.
"Sigh."
Lam Pham stopped, sighed, and said to the unknown thing behind him.
"If you want to come out, just appear in front of me openly. Don't be so sneaky, running back and forth. You can scare others, but it's absolutely impossible to scare me."
"My courage is very great. I'm not that easily scared."
He was very sincere with the other party.
The other party's behavior was like a child playing hide-and-seek, without a single bit of fun.
After saying these words, Lam Pham prepared to turn around and continue walking. As for whether the other party wanted to come out or not, that was his business.
And in the moment he turned around.
Swish!
A figure appeared on the originally smooth road ahead.
"Hmm... is this a Creator?"
Lam Pham had never seen this type of zombie before. Its legs were long and slender, with bulging muscles. Its hands were flesh scythes, looking extremely sharp.
"Are you a Creator?" Lam Pham asked.
He raised his camera, wanting to take a picture of the other's appearance.
The Creators he encountered were all different.
But their strength was very strong. They were already at the top of the zombie hierarchy, with relatively high intelligence and could communicate normally.
But this time, his question did not get any response. Just as he was thinking of taking a picture of the other party, the zombie in front of him moved in an instant. The speed was very fast, making it a little hard to imagine.
But in Lam Pham's eyes, the other's speed was very slow, like a snail moving.
After this zombie appeared in front of Lam Pham, it waved its flesh scythes and fiercely chopped at Lam Pham's neck.
Faced with the sudden situation, Lam Pham was expressionless and unmoved. He just raised a finger and blocked the other's sharp flesh scythes.
"You're really not friendly," Lam Pham was very helpless. "Can you please not move? Let me take some nice pictures of you first. My photography skills are very good. I can perfectly capture you."
The unknown zombie let out a low roar and waved its other arm. With its extremely fast speed, the sound of the air being torn could be heard.
Such an unfriendly zombie made Lam Pham very helpless.
He held Frostmourne. With a splat, with an even faster speed, he cut off the zombie's two arms. Under the other's somewhat different situation, he raised his camera.
Click!
Click!
He pressed the shutter, permanently capturing the zombie in front of him.
The only imperfection was that the zombie in the photo was not in its complete form. He then aimed the lens at the two scythe arms that had been thrown on the ground.
When the photos were developed, he could just piece them together.
Then he looked up at the zombie.
"You can't regenerate severed limbs?" Lam Pham was very surprised, feeling it was a bit hard to believe. At least among the Creators he had encountered, not a single one couldn't regenerate severed limbs.
"Argh argh..."
The zombie with its two arms cut off roared angrily, as if venting its anger.
But after the situation just now, the zombie clearly knew how terrifying the human in front of it was. Without a second thought, it turned and ran. With a whoosh, it vanished before Lam Pham's eyes.
"So fast. Did it put all its abilities into speed?"
Lam Pham muttered to himself, then smiled and followed at high speed, constantly appearing on the high-rise buildings, his gaze fixed on the fleeing zombie.
The zombie with its two arms cut off was constantly weaving through the corpses, and finally ran into a building.
And this scene was all seen by Lam Pham, who had followed.
"So it's hiding in here?"
Lam Pham leaped down and landed. The surrounding zombies, seeing the suddenly appearing flesh and blood, all became very crazed.
He waved Frostmourne, and sword lights flashed. The charging zombies were instantly cut in half.
Then he walked into the building.
The surrounding environment was very dark, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood.
Zombies were hiding in the darkness. As Lam Pham appeared, they instantly became restless.
"Argh argh" "Argh argh"
A large number of zombies charged at Lam Pham, some jumping down from the upper floors, their ferocious and terrifying appearance like demons.
"So impulsive."
He swung his sword. As the sword lights flashed in the darkness, the charging zombies were instantly killed. Viscous blood flowed all over the ground.
Until the very end.
He saw the special zombie with its two arms broken. Perhaps seeing the human who had just cut off its two arms appear in front of it, this special zombie seemed very shocked.
"Your ability is very weak. Besides being a little faster, it seems you have no other abilities. I feel you might not be a Creator. Or is it that you're on the path of evolution, just not yet evolved to that state?" Lam Pham said.
The special zombie roared lowly and charged crazily at Lam Pham. The speed was very fast. If it were Old Chung and the others facing this zombie, they might not be able to react.
"Argh argh."
"I understand. It seems it's just as I thought."
Looking at the charging special zombie.
Splat!
The sword light flashed for an instant, and the other's head was flung high into the air, spinning.
[Killed a Swift One]
[Points +70]
"This number of points is still a long way from a Creator. To evolve to that level is not a simple matter."
Lam Pham walked up to the head and cut it open.
He took out the crystal inside.
This zombie had a multicolored crystal. This kind of crystal was not so easy to obtain. At least for Awakened ones, it was very difficult to obtain this kind of colored crystal.
"Let's continue clearing. The zombies in this city should be roughly cleaned up."
The work of clearing zombies was relatively dull and uninteresting.
Lam Pham always maintained a relaxed mood. The main method was that when he saw a zombie, he would mumble and communicate with the other party. He would say his piece. As for whether the zombie could understand, that was not something he needed to consider.
. . .
Night.
Ngo Hao came to Little Hue's residence.
"Is anyone here?"
Still no one answered.
This situation made him very puzzled. Not finding her during the day was understandable. Maybe she was somewhere, or had something to do. But now it was dark. The surrounding rooms were all faintly lit, but Little Hue's room was pitch black.
"Where on earth did she go?"
Since coming to this shelter, the only person he had interacted with was Little Hue.
However, at this moment, a patrol team passed by and saw Ngo Hao standing in front of the door.
"What are you doing?"
Ngo Hao said, "I just got here. I want to know where the person who lives here went. Her foot is injured, and she still hasn't come back. I'm worried if something happened to her."
The patrol team member said, "It's forbidden to be outside at night. Please return to your residence immediately."
"I know it's forbidden to be outside, but I just want to know where she went." Ngo Hao was a little puzzled about the rules of this place. Why was it forbidden to be outside at night? They had to stay in their rooms.
For some reason, he always felt that this kind of shelter seemed a bit unreliable.
It was as if something was being hidden.
The patrol team member, seeing that the other party still hadn't left, his tone couldn't help but become serious.
"Please return to your room now. It is forbidden to be outside at night. This is the rule of the shelter. If you violate the rule, we will arrest you."
"Go back."
The patrol team member, from beginning to end, didn't tell her where the person here went.
Ngo Hao saw that they were a little serious. He looked at the tightly shut door and left with great regret.
