Dr. Sang’s dark black pupils gradually faded, eventually turning into pure white with a touch of pale yellow.
His somewhat vacant and numb eyes stared at the zombie king in front of him, with a cold and solemn expression tinged with annoyance.
He furrowed his brows slightly, and the surrounding pressure suddenly surged.
The proud and handsome man spoke coldly, “Kneel.”
In the next moment, the ground beneath the zombie king’s feet suddenly shattered, and his knees heavily hit the ground, kneeling amidst the broken stones in a sorry state.
The zombies embedded in the stone wall couldn’t withstand the pressure and instantly turned into a mass of blood mist, uncontrollably exploding in all directions.
The man acted swiftly and took off his white coat, draping it over the young man.
The viscous and foul-smelling blood was completely blocked by the white coat, turning it from a clean garment into a blood-soaked robe.
The surrounding pressure deformed all the nearby equipment, only the area around Bai Lixin remained unchanged.
The man carefully looked the young man up and down. Only when he saw that the bloodstains didn’t splash on his body did he retract his gaze, refocusing his eyes on the zombie king.
The zombie king knelt on the ground in a sorry state, his already terrifying face becoming even more fierce due to his ferocious expression.
Zombie king: “You are nothing more than this.”
Taking a deep breath, the zombie king turned to the zombie queen lying unconscious beside him, and opened his crimson mouth wide, fiercely biting into her.
The once intact arm was immediately torn off, blood gushing out. The flesh, still connected to tendons, bones, and blood vessels, was chewed by the zombie king and forcefully swallowed.
Bai Lixin’s pupils contracted, and he could even see the Adam’s apple rolling as the other party swallowed.
The zombie queen woke up due to the intense pain caused by the zombie king biting her. She furrowed her brows and opened her confused eyes, looking around the room before finally casting a puzzled look at Dr. Sang.
Bai Lixin’s expression suddenly changed, and he looked at the zombie queen thoughtfully.
Not bad.
From the zombie queen’s actions earlier to their conversation through the ventilation duct, he had already begun to suspect her true identity.
– Over thirty years ago.
– No longer eating humans.
– Forgetting her previous identity.
Yes, indeed. The zombie queen was once a human, and moreover, a player who participated in the early stages of the game.
And even more, her surprised gaze just now clearly indicated that she recognized this face.
Her memories probably hadn’t disappeared along with Dijia’s mosaic effect.
The only explanation was that Dijia was still active when she was trapped in this game.
So could this zombie queen be the girlfriend that Song Yuantian was looking for?
After devouring the zombie queen, the zombie king laughed madly at first, and after a mere two seconds, and the muscle tendons under his pale skin crawled and meandered strangely like snakes.
Seeing that the zombie queen had awakened, the zombie king casually threw her weak body into the pile of corpses behind it and forcefully stood up from the shattered stones.
His white hair was flying in the air as he dusted off the gravel from his body. He arrogantly gazed at Dr. Sang, his originally pale face still stained with the blood of the zombie queen.
“More than thirty years have passed, and you have long fallen from the altar of gods,” the Zombie King greedily scanned Dr. Sang, “Dear brother, why don’t you enter my stomach? Since you dislike being a zombie, it’s better to become my nourishment. This way, we brothers can be together forever. Otherwise, it would be such a waste of your splendid flesh.”
Bai Lixin observed the Zombie King and the Zombie Queen without changing his expression.
Although the Zombie Queen was weak, her vitality was still strong.
She struggled to sit up from the pile of corpses and leaned against the broken bodies.
The wound bitten by the Zombie King began to heal rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The Zombie Queen looked back and forth between the Zombie King and Dr. Sang, and her gaze finally settled on Dr. Sang with some surprise. “Zombie King, is this the brother you have been looking for?”
Although her eyes were on Dr. Sang, she addressed the Zombie King.
The Zombie King glanced at her wound and smirked. “My Queen, your healing ability is still as enviable as ever.”
“Yes, he is the brother I have been looking for.”
“By the way, since you are my queen, you should also call him ‘brother’.”
The Zombie Queen continued to scrutinize Dr. Sang, and her gaze was filled with not only scrutiny but also astonishment.
Seeing the Zombie Queen’s gaze fixed on Dr. Sang, the Zombie King became somewhat displeased.
He coldly said, “Why do you keep staring at him, bitch?”
The Zombie Queen averted her gaze with a defensive tone, “What’s wrong? Does my admiration for your good-looking brother bother you? Who doesn’t like beauty? Are you blaming me for not giving birth to your children? Take a look at yourself. If you had even one-tenth of your brother’s looks, our children would be playing with soy sauce by now.”
The Zombie King, instead of being angry, burst into laughter. “What’s the problem? After I eat my brother, his face will be mine. Since you like his face so much, I’ll give it to you.”
The Zombie Queen was taken aback, and she nervously glanced at Dr. Sang and Bai Lixin, her mouth opening to say something, but she was abruptly interrupted by a cold voice from the opposite side.
“Then try it.”
Suddenly, a gigantic eye appeared, suspended above them.
Crimson blood vessels covered the white eyeball, which stared fixedly at the Zombie King, like a predator at the top of the food chain observing its prey.
The Zombie Queen merely glanced at the eye above and was instantly overwhelmed by a terrifying feeling akin to falling into an abyss.
Despite not sweating, the fear after the fright caused every pore to open, leaving her shivering in fear.
She was filled with astonishment and quickly lowered her head to alleviate the fear.
But even with her head lowered, the fear lingered, unable to dissipate, like maggots clinging to bones, like shadows following one’s form.
The eye targeted the Zombie King, but even beyond its line of sight, she felt like kneeling down and worshiping it.
Terrifying.
In the Zombie Queen’s mind, there was only this word.
The Zombie King, who had been arrogant before, trembled as he stared at the eyeball above, unable to control his body’s trembling.
His teeth chattered from clenching so tightly, and the veins on his pale face trembled as he did so.
Should he try?
If he tried, he would die.
The pale face of the Zombie King turned even paler. At this moment, it seemed that as long as the eye commanded “suicide,” the Zombie King would immediately end his own life.
Just as the Zombie King was about to collapse to the ground, the surroundings suddenly shook violently.
In the next second, Bai Lixin felt that the Ark had started to move.
The pupil of the eyeball on the ceiling contracted, and it blinked slowly.
At the same time, the Zombie King quickly broke free and lifted the Zombie Queen behind him. He looked at Dr. Sang with vigilance and fear, saying, “My only purpose today was to take away my Queen.”
“I don’t want to fight you here. We’ll settle this later.”
Sounds of chaotic footsteps approached from above. The Zombie King blinked cunningly and smirked, “Good brother, you claim to be just an ordinary being here. But now, you better think carefully about how to explain all of this.”
“Hahaha.”
Just as the Zombie King was about to leave with the Zombie Queen, Bai Lixin shouted in the direction of the Zombie Queen, “Do you know Song Yuantian?”
The Zombie Queen had already walked far away, but she turned back with a furrowed brow and replied without hesitation, “I don’t know.”
As the Zombie King and Zombie Queen disappeared into the forcibly opened underground passage, the distant footsteps grew closer and more chaotic. In an instant, Dr. Adolf arrived with a group of powerful ability users.
Seeing the Zombie Queen’s disappearance, Dr. Adolf immediately fell to his knees, his face pale and frantic.
“Search,” Dr. Adolf struggled to maintain his composure, “quickly find this special zombie. She is a treasure. She couldn’t have gone far in less than an hour. We must find her. We absolutely cannot let her leave.”
The surrounding ability users followed the command swiftly, efficiently dispatching the mutated zombies that used to be researchers and searching the laboratory.
In no time, an ability user came before Dr. Adolf and said, “Dr. Adolf, we found traces of liquid in the front laboratory. Based on our observations, she should have been taken away by other zombies.”
“That zombie’s power is terrifying,” the ability user glanced around and pointed at the blood mist created by Dr. Sang. “If that is the work of that zombie, Dr. Adolf, we are no match for it. We are mere ants in a battle against him.”
Dr. Adolf sat on the ground dejectedly, his back hunched, as if he had aged ten years in an instant.
The ability user asked, “But it’s strange. With the abilities of that zombie, if it wanted to, it could have massacred everyone on the Ark. But it only took away this special zombie.”
“The zombie frenzy outside is also receding. Could it be that this zombie tide was just a diversion? Their true purpose was to take away this special zombie?”
“Do you know anything, Dr. Adolf? What makes this zombie so special?”
Dr. Adolf sighed, “I know. Because this zombie is the Zombie Queen, the love of the Zombie King.”
“I had been carefully concealing the presence of the Zombie Queen all this time, but she was eventually found by the Zombie King. The zombies swarmed out to reclaim their Queen.”
The expressions of all the ability users present changed drastically. The leader of the ability users asked urgently, “So, the cause of everything in this laboratory was the Zombie King? The Zombie King appeared on the Ark just now?!”
A sense of deathly fear instantly enveloped all the ability users.
The Zombie King, the god-like existence of all zombies on Blue Star! They were no match for it at all!
Dr. Adolf took a deep breath and stood up with the support of those around him. “Don’t chase after them. Let them go. Although we don’t know why they spared us, we should be thankful that we’re still alive.”
The ability users exchanged glances, and the leader pointed at the corpses, asking, “What should we do with these bodies?”
Dr. Adolf’s expression gradually transitioned from fear to calm, and finally turned numb. “Same old method, clean up and dispose of them in the chaotic mass grave.”
“Fortunately, the Ark is currently moving, and these bodies will serve as excellent fuel.”
“I’ll check the data database for any damage. Please make sure this place is thoroughly cleaned, and do not let anyone discover its existence.”
The leader of the ability users replied, “Don’t worry, Dr. Adolf. We know what to do.”
Bai Lixin silently observed the scene below through a gap. Dr. Adolf struggled to leave with the help of those around him, and the remaining ability users began handling the corpses.
They worked skillfully, as if it wasn’t their first time doing this kind of cleanup.
Through the conversation among them, Bai Lixin finally unraveled the previous mystery.
He had wondered why the Ark didn’t dispose of the bodies. It turned out that the bodies were piled up there to become the fuel that propelled the Ark forward.
“It seems like this lab coat doesn’t belong here.” Just as Bai Lixin and Dr. Sang were preparing to leave, they exchanged a glance in the darkness and saw surprise in each other’s eyes.
The lab coat, could it be…
They both lowered their heads and indeed saw the blood-stained lab coat held by one of the ability users, who was asking about it.
The leader approached cautiously and observed, “Dr. Adolf’s work uniform has a red sun symbol on the inside. This one doesn’t.”
“Could it be that someone else has been here?”
“Immediately send a team to investigate all the research labs tonight! Check who has been behaving suspiciously! You ten, go now! Go to each lab and investigate!”
The ten ability users received the order and departed in a determined manner.
Dr. Sang tugged at Bai Lixin’s arm, and under Dr. Sang’s gesture, they silently and swiftly left.
Bai Lixin didn’t ask further questions and followed closely behind Dr. Sang until they arrived at the entrance of the hole where the Zombie King had left.
Dr. Sang waved at Bai Lixin and led him inside.
The hole was not crudely opened but had a narrow passage.
Surrounding them were tightly arranged metal pipes, and Dr. Sang quickly led Bai Lixin into one of the passages.
“The Ark is made of meteorite metal, and its sturdy metal shell can resist almost all zombie attacks. When it’s stationary, the Ark’s outer shell is its strongest shield. However, during the Ark’s activation, the bottom opens up to allow airflow to form a passage.”
“The Zombie King entered the Ark and left from this location with the Zombie Queen.”
Bai Lixin suddenly had a moment of enlightenment, “No wonder the Zombie King unleashed a zombie frenzy. It was not merely to create a diversion but also to set the Ark in motion.”
He paused briefly, tugged at Dr. Sang’s sleeve, and pointed to his own head, inquiring, “It seems the Zombie King was monitoring me before. Could you please check if it is still present?”
Upon hearing this, Dr. Sang smiled and curved his finger, lightly flicking Bai Lixin’s forehead, causing a black thread to emerge from it.
With his slender fingers, Dr. Sang gently lifted the black thread and exerted a slight force. With a soft “snap,” the thread snapped in the middle, splitting into two and dissolving into fine particles in the air.
Dr. Sang remarked, “It was my negligence. After all these years, I never expected his power to be this formidable, deceiving even my own eyes.”
Bai Lixin followed closely behind Dr. Sang as they moved swiftly through the narrow passages of the Ark. “What was the Zombie King like before?”
Dr. Sang replied, “According to your human expression, one could say he was an invincible weakling.”
“I am not very familiar with his history. Although I am his older brother, I woke up in the glacier much later. After spending some time there, I grew bored and decided to leave.”
“Later on, he found me in the ruined city, claiming that he had been searching for me for a long time and even returned to the glacier but couldn’t find me.”
“At that time, he tried to persuade me to join him, to cooperate and accomplish the global zombification, becoming the ruler of the world.”
“However, I found such matters uninteresting and declined his offer.”
“He was unwilling to accept my refusal and launched an attack against me. He probably didn’t anticipate that my power far surpassed his, so he had no choice but to leave in disappointment.”
Dr. Sang’s dark black pupils gradually faded, eventually turning into pure white with a touch of pale yellow.
His somewhat vacant and numb eyes stared at the zombie king in front of him, with a cold and solemn expression tinged with annoyance.
He furrowed his brows slightly, and the surrounding pressure suddenly surged.
The proud and handsome man spoke coldly, “Kneel.”
