N-A-A Chapter 46 Where is your corpse?
Chapter 46 Where is your corpse?
As soon as Wang Xiao finished speaking, the mutated zombie that looked like a gecko suddenly leaped high into the air and pounced straight at Wang Xiao with its mouth wide open and dripping with slime.
Sensing the other person's anger and hearing their foul breath, out of kindness, to prevent them from damaging the wall behind them or harming public facilities by hitting them with excessive force.
Instead of retreating, Wang Xiao took a step forward and, just as the gecko zombie was about to touch him, he swung his right leg out with all his might.
Wang Xiao's original intention was to prevent the other party from damaging public property, but he only realized that he had used a little too much force after kicking out.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the gecko zombie, which was still in a forward-leaning posture, was sent flying backward and crashed into the iron railing behind it.
Seeing that the iron railings were deformed by the other party's massive body, Wang Xiao said with a slight apology:
"Sorry, I haven't used my full strength in a long time, and I lost control. You know, I just didn't want you to hurt your head. Please forgive me. How about we do it again?"
Despite Wang Xiao's "good intentions," the gecko zombies clearly did not appreciate them.
After being kicked away by Wang Xiao, the gecko zombie struggled to its feet. This time, it looked at Wang Xiao with wary eyes and no longer rushed forward as rashly as before.
Seeing this, Wang Xiao narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Tsk tsk, it seems that not only has it retained its reaction to danger, but also a part of its intelligence. It even knows how to be afraid."
Judging from your reaction, you're not still thinking of running away, are you?
Zombies can run away? That's really quite strange.
"If I had let you escape today, and allowed you to continue evolving so smoothly, you might actually have had a chance to become a new kind of human."
After discovering that the mutated zombie still retained some intelligence, Wang Xiao gradually dropped his sly smile, his eyes filled only with pure brutality and murderous intent.
If it were just a simple mutated zombie, Wang Xiao wouldn't be so serious.
After all, without intelligence, no matter how strong it is, it is just a slightly more troublesome wild beast. Although it will be more troublesome to deal with, as long as you are patient and grasp its weaknesses, it is not difficult to solve.
But if the other party is not only a mutated zombie, but also retains some intelligence, then the outcome will be different.
If this guy continues to evolve like this, he might actually see zombies driving tanks one day.
Realizing the potential danger this guy posed, Wang Xiao made up his mind to keep him here forever.
After sensing the dangerous aura emanating from the human before it, the gecko zombie realized that this human was not the prey it had previously been able to toy with at will.
The dangerous aura emanating from this human even surpassed its own, causing it to almost instinctively want to run away.
However, its bloodlust and evolutionary instincts also made it crave Wang Xiao's body.
A voice kept telling it that if it ate this human, it could advance further.
In the end, greed triumphed over fear.
Its thirst for flesh and blood made it ignore the danger.
The gecko zombie's limbs were pressed tightly to the ground, and it kept making low gurgling sounds in its throat. At this moment, its three-meter-long tongue, covered with barbs, slowly extended out.
Watching the long tongue flailing in the air, Wang Xiao locked his gaze on it, slowly raised the fire axe in his hand, and chuckled, "Want to eat my mom? Come on, let's see if your tongue is faster, or this thing in my hand is faster."
"roar!"
With a roar, the gecko zombie sprang up from the ground, its long tongue shooting straight at Wang Xiao's face.
A ruthless glint flashed in Wang Xiao's eyes: "You're courting death."
Wang Xiao easily dodged the barbed tongue with a sidestep and, seizing the moment the tongue retracted, slammed down the fire axe in his hand.
"puff."
With Wang Xiao's terrifying strength amplified, how could mere flesh and blood possibly withstand the sharp axe blade?
As a section of its scarlet tongue was severed, the gecko zombie let out a painful howl.
It staggered backward, clutching its severed tongue with both hands, as large amounts of disgusting mucus oozed from the broken end.
At this moment, it learned two emotions.
A thing called fear.
Another kind is called regret.
Meanwhile, the battle on the other side was also coming to an end.
Holding a long knife, Yue Man displayed exceptional agility amidst the attacks of both clawed and knife-wielding zombies.
The two-clawed zombie swung its claws at Yue Man repeatedly, but Yue Man not only easily deflected the attack, but also seized the opportunity to flick the zombie's thick arm with his blade, leaving a deep, bone-revealing wound.
As the long blade slashed through the air, black blood gushed out instantly, and the clawed zombie let out an angry roar.
Meanwhile, the mutated zombie wielding the bone-chopping knife seized the opportunity to slash down from the side, its momentum carrying the force of splitting Yue Man in two, determined to take Yue Man's life with a single blow.
Facing the impending cleaver, Yue Man remained calm. He lightly touched the ground with his toes and slid back half a step. The cleaver, covered in bits of flesh, grazed his clothes and slammed heavily onto the ground, sending shards of stone flying everywhere.
Yue Man shook his head and said, "If I say you're no good, then you're no good."
Immediately afterward, Yue Man swayed and took the initiative to close in on the enemy while holding a long sword.
With Yue Man's swing, the longsword, enhanced by his abilities, forced the two mutated zombies to launch futile and furious counterattacks.
After taking in all of this out of the corner of his eye, Wang Xiao once again sighed with envy at Yue Man's talent: "Sigh, it really is pure stats and talent, without a single drop of sweat..."
After confirming that Yue Man didn't need his help, Wang Xiao, carrying an axe, walked towards the gecko zombie in front of him, which was still covering its tongue and making low growls, and asked, "Old Yue, are you alright? I'm about to finish this up, do you want me to help you?"
"You should worry about yourself first."
Yue Man casually responded, and once again slashed at the two mutated zombies with his long sword.
Well, I tried to help out of kindness, but this guy doesn't even appreciate it.
Heart hurts.
Since it hurts, there's no other way but to find a place to vent.
Wang Xiao curled his lip, refocusing his attention on the gecko zombie, and said with a grin, "You can't be all you're capable of, can you? Yue Man gave you a very high evaluation!"
Just when Wang Xiao thought that this gecko zombie would retaliate angrily like the two mutated zombies, a bizarre scene unfolded.
This guy actually got down on all fours and started backing away.
"Huh? Why are you retreating? You're a zombie! You can react to humans in many ways, but why would you retreat?"
That's unreasonable, absolutely unreasonable.
Wang Xiao, carrying a fire axe, walked step by step toward the gecko zombie, expressing extreme dissatisfaction with the gecko zombie's retreat.
"Come on, let's continue what we were doing. You still have half a tongue, right? Don't give up yet. Maybe you'll succeed on the next try?"
Despite Wang Xiao's encouragement to the zombie, the gecko zombie retreated faster and faster, eventually turning tail and running away.
This sudden turn of events completely stunned Wang Xiao.
"Holy crap, you actually ran away! Where's your corpse?"
Wang Xiao glanced at Yue Man, who was equally shocked, and then at the gecko zombie that ran away without looking back. After a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth, picked up his axe, and chased after it.
Seeing that Wang Xiao was actually chasing after a mutated zombie that even he found troublesome, Yue Man felt that this world was still too crazy.
To confirm that he wasn't mistaken, Yue Man looked at the two mutated zombies in front of him, who were still fighting desperately despite being covered in wounds, and fell into deep thought.
You're all mutated zombies, are you really the same species?
"Hmm, something feels off..."
Although he didn't quite understand, Yue Man seized the opportunity to sever the head of the two-clawed zombie with a single stroke. After flicking the blood off the blade, he calmly looked at another mutated zombie that was lunging at him.
