"Hey, you admit you have intelligence. It really is terrifying. I suspected you had intelligence before. You made the Weeper attract me to the plaza, then summoned a huge zombie tide to attack me. You must have wanted to kill me there, right? From this, I also feel you are different from other zombies."
Lam Pham stated the original situation.
As for what the mysterious zombie's "meow meow" really meant, it actually wasn't important.
The meaning he conveyed was that he acknowledged it. As for whether it was true or not, who knew? It was as if making the mysterious zombie speak out to say his words were all false.
"Alright, show me what skills you have. I want to make a deeper record of you."
"Alright, please begin your performance."
Lam Pham looked on with anticipation.
The mysterious zombie continued to growl lowly, its ferocious face already somewhat contorted. The viscous liquid flowing from its mouth truly seemed to understand Lam Pham's words.
The mysterious zombie instantly rushed towards Lam Pham.
A very simple movement, without any fancy abilities.
Lam Pham dodged.
He frowned slightly.
Clearly, he was disappointed by the mysterious zombie's explosive power.
"If this is all the ability you have, then it's truly disappointing."
Lam Pham evaluated the mysterious zombie's abilities. Regardless of speed or strength, if it wasn't much better, it was really inferior to a hybrid zombie.
At least humans encountering a hybrid zombie would truly feel despair.
Give it a chance, continue to observe.
As Lam Pham dodged, the mysterious zombie didn't even touch him.
This really angered the mysterious zombie. The skin on the upper body of the mysterious zombie, like shattered glass, continuously showed cracks. Each piece of cracked flesh was stained with viscous liquid.
On the edge of each piece of cracked flesh, there was a circle of tiny, sharp, dark teeth.
Lam Pham watched very intently, eagerly picking up his camera and taking a barrage of shots at the mysterious zombie.
"Gradually taking on a new form in anger. This is the only zombie with this kind of ability encountered since the outbreak of the apocalypse."
At this moment, Lam Pham was like a photography enthusiast, taking a flurry of shots of his favorite zombie.
If any ordinary person saw this scene.
They would definitely be scared and run for their lives.
This kind of scene was the most terrifying. And when the zombie was transforming, in this kind of desolate place, running away was the best choice. If one decisively jumped into the river, perhaps there really could be a glimmer of hope.
However, it was often truly regrettable.
Many people would be scared stiff on the spot. Apart from fear, their legs would feel as if they weren't their own, not moving at all. What was even stranger was... often, after the new form appeared, it was as if a body-fixing spell had been lifted, and they would know to run.
But what good would running do at that time?
Everything was already over.
While Lam Pham was letting his thoughts wander, the mysterious zombie's new form appeared. Its head and upper body were like blooming petals, splitting into many segments.
On both sides, there were single eyes, suddenly rolling, as if searching for prey.
When it confirmed the prey was right in front of it.
Many tentacles covered with barbs appeared, viciously coiling towards Lam Pham.
Lam Pham casually dodged, waiting for the other party to give him more surprises.
"Is this all?"
During the dodging process, he then took another picture of the current scene.
Although the other party only had these, for any ordinary person, once this thing appeared in front of them, they would face an unimaginable impact.
A moment later.
Lam Pham, who still wanted to see what skills the mysterious zombie had, could already confirm that the other party's abilities were just these.
He drew Frostmourne from his back.
Sword light flashed.
Pfft!
The waving tentacles were severed, and a gash appeared on its body. Its upper body, very smooth, separated from its lower body.
(Killed Brain-Eater's Offspring ---- Splitter)
[Points +60]
"That's not right. How can it only be sixty points? This guy could command fusion-type zombies. Those are zombies with colorful crystals."
The points for a fusion-type zombie were seventy.
This thing only had sixty, and its crystal was brown, yet it could command fusion-type zombies.
This situation was very inappropriate.
But this designation reminded him of an important fellow, the ordinary zombie he encountered in Huong Son city that could talk. But it wasn't that it could talk on its own.
Rather, it was controlled by a zombie called a "Brain-Eater."
Brain-Eater's offspring... Don't tell me this zombie can also give birth to other zombies. If it's really like this, then it would be too...
...terrifying.
This, according to Lam Pham.
Was not a good situation.
His expression was extremely solemn, worried about the future. As more and more bizarre and peculiar zombies appeared, with his current abilities, could he really contend with them?
Searching for the crystal in the zombie's corpse, the other party's head had also split open. The crystal would be there. He continued to stir.
Finally, he found it at the waist.
It was indeed a brown crystal.
And finding the crystal at the waist made Lam Pham even more worried. After all, the "Zombie Illustrated Guide" recorded that zombie crystals were all in the head. To kill a zombie, one had to cut off its head or pierce its head to destroy the crystal.
But now this type of zombie had appeared, clearly a special species had emerged.
Returning to the engineers' side, he took them back.
After sending them back, Lam Pham went to Duong Vinh's place.
Upon meeting.
Duong Vinh saw Lam Pham arrive, as if understanding the situation.
"Don't try to persuade me. I'm doing very well here now. Hoang City is so big. Compared to the entire Hoang City, the area of the Sunshine Shelter is still too small. I'll stay here. If I encounter survivors, I can still let them escape here and eventually let them go to your side."
Duong Vinh repeated what he had said before, his gaze towards the distance filled with a kind of radiance of striving to gather survivors.
Lam Pham: "Duong Vinh, the zombies in Hoang City have been cleaned up by me. Even if you walk swaggeringly on the streets, you won't encounter any zombies..."
He stared foolishly at Lam Pham, blinked, his whole body exuding a "You're not kidding me, are you?" vibe.
Lam Pham said: "It's really been hard on you all this time, but now it's unnecessary. Hoang City is safe. In the future, we can walk safely in Hoang City."
Duong Vinh: ...?
"I know you're too surprised to speak right now. Yes, even I didn't expect it to be so fast. Perhaps it's all because I held a breath in my heart, always thinking of the former Hoang City, so under unremitting efforts, I persisted in cleaning, and the effect finally became obvious."
Duong Vinh: ...?
Lam Pham patted Duong Vinh's shoulder, looking at him expectantly, "Come back to the Sunshine Shelter with me. That place needs you. Let's work together to rebuild our homes. I believe that as long as we work hard and have faith, then all of this will be realized."
Duong Vinh, who was staring blankly at Lam Pham, finally reacted.
"Really none?"
"Yes, really none. Even if there are, they won't exist for long. Someone has already gone out to patrol, and we have also set up the signal. Phones can make calls and group chat."
Lam Pham nodded very firmly. He knew that Duong Vinh's mood at this moment was definitely excited to the extreme.
He understood what kind of mood was hidden beneath Duong Vinh's calm expression at this moment.
Needed to calm down a bit.
Not in a hurry at all.
"I..."
Duong Vinh felt very happy staying here. One person full, the whole family not worried. Before, he had to take care of so many survivors, thinking not only about supplies every day, but also what to do if zombies rushed over.
He was worried sick, and the mental pressure was immense.
Since Lam Pham came and took those survivors away, he occupied such a large house by himself. That feeling was really comfortable. He slept very soundly every day.
Such a life, even in peacetime, was not available.
After all, at that time, he had to go to work every day, leaving early and returning late, earning a few thousand yuan, without even a single day off.
It simply wasn't a life a human could live.
Lam Pham smiled and said: "Your younger sister Duong Duong has been waiting for you to go over. You've all paid enough. It's time to enjoy a stable life. Pack up a bit, let's go."
"Alright... Alright then," Duong Vinh didn't refuse and obediently went to pack his things.
Nightfall.
Lam Pham looked at his mobile phone. There were many group messages. He read all the messages once. Apart from work reports in the group messages, there was also some chatting.
Management group.
Chuc Thanh: "Are there still zombies in Hoang City? I stared with both eyes everywhere, but resolutely didn't see even a ghost of a shadow. Brother Lam cleaned it too thoroughly. Apart from broken corpses and minced meat everywhere, there's nothing else."
Old Chung: "Can't be careless. Hoang City is very big. It's best if there are no zombies, but just in case, we have to continue tomorrow. This concerns everyone's safety. Our responsibility is very heavy; there can't be any mistakes."
Don't look at Old Chung as simple and honest, but when it comes to important matters, he is really careful and meticulous, absolutely will not slack off. Often, many things happen because of slacking off.
Chuc Thanh: "Yes, guarantee to be serious (serious)."
Chu Duong: "Our situation today is also the same. There are loudspeakers on the car playing everywhere, but there's no movement at all."
Dam Thanh: "Far from the Sunshine Shelter, entering the city center, no zombies are seen. The entire city is as quiet as a ghost town, making people feel uncomfortable just looking at it."
