Chapter 109: 080 Bad Feeling (First Update)_2
On the other side, Fang Yuxin also had some thoughts on her mind. She remembered that the large-scale gathering of zombies usually signified the emergence of a leader, and there were only two possibilities for a Zombie Leader: either a higher-level zombie had appeared, or there was a Spiritual Zombie.
Now, it was only the third day of the apocalypse. Even if there were higher-level zombies, they would be at most Level 1 Zombies, which possessed only rudimentary intelligence, akin to wild beasts. In combat, they might resort to some tactics but were still not capable of gathering thousands of zombies into an army.
Thus, only one possibility remained.
The leader was a Spiritual Zombie!
The intelligence of a Spiritual Zombie was higher than that of regular zombies. A Level 1 Spiritual Zombie was already as cunning as a wolf. Even so, why would it surround an ordinary residential building? Was it possible that the building was not at all ordinary, or was there something in it that it wanted?
The moment she considered this possibility, Fang Yuxin could hardly sit still. Fang Yuyang, who was next to her, noticed her distress and quickly asked in a low voice, “Xinxin, what’s wrong?” Thinking of the dream Fang Yuxin had once mentioned, his expression darkened slightly, and he pressed his voice even lower, “Did you think of something?”

Fang Yuxin nodded and was about to speak when she heard Captain Zhou asking, “Captain Fang, Miss Fang, do you have any conjectures?”
Fang Yuyang instantly became vigilant and guardedly looked at Captain Zhou. Captain Zhou immediately guessed that he might have misunderstood something and walked over, explaining, “I saw both of your faces looking troubled, and you were whispering, so I guessed that maybe you knew something. That’s why I am asking.”
Fang Yuyang realized that he might have been too deliberate just now, and his face turned a shade paler with a bit of embarrassment. Fang Yuxin quickly interjected, “Please don’t take offense, Captain Zhou. My brother is just too cautious. I do have some guesses, but I’m not sure, so I wanted to discuss them with my brother first and hear his thoughts.”
Captain Zhou was not offended. In fact, he appreciated the vigilance and meticulousness of the Fang siblings. He waved his hand to indicate it was no bother and then urged, “Miss Fang, please tell, what exactly are you thinking?”
Fang Yuxin went straight to the point, “I just find it too strange that so many zombies are gathering together. So I’m guessing, might there be a leader-like existence among the zombies? We’ve already encountered a speed mutant zombie, so could there be other Mutant Zombies? Ordinary zombies lack intelligence, but Mutant Zombies know how to ambush, clearly showing some smarts. If we compare them to natural predators, like a wolf pack, then might there be a ‘Head Wolf’ among them? If there is a ‘Head Wolf’ leading, then it wouldn’t be strange for so many zombies to be gathered.”
Ever since Captain Zhou learned of the Mutant Zombies’ existence, he had had a bad premonition. However, he did not have the apocalyptic experience like Fang Yuxin and couldn’t think as deeply as she did. Now hearing her theory, he felt it was very likely true!
In such a case, it would not be strange for the youth to have mentioned hundreds of zombies coming after them.
Not only Captain Zhou heard this conversation, but many of the mercenaries and soldiers around did as well. Like Captain Zhou, they all felt an ominous weight on their hearts!
If one speed Mutant Zombie was already troublesome enough, how much more difficult would it be to survive with a Zombie Leader among them?
Seeing the grave faces around her, and some already showing signs of despair, Fang Yuxin quietly sighed to herself.
What was a Zombie Leader in the grand scheme of things? As zombies evolved, such leaders would only become more numerous! Moreover, animals and plants would mutate into more brutal, bloodthirsty, and aggressive forms. And among the animal-turned zombies, Zombie Rats and Zombie Birds were nearly invincible disasters!
Although she knew all this, she dared not speak it aloud. Otherwise, wouldn’t all the survivors become even more desperate?
After thinking it over, she said, “I think there’s no need for everyone to despair. Don’t forget, when zombies appeared, superpower users emerged as well. Isn’t this the way the world offers hope amidst despair? Since zombies can evolve, then superpower users certainly can too! As long as we find the right way, we can become stronger and stronger! Not to mention, that speed Mutant Zombie was also killed by us, wasn’t it?”
In truth, she alone had killed that Mutant Zombie. However, Fang Yuxin intentionally used “we” in her statement to inspire everyone’s fighting spirit and prevent them from falling into further despair.
Although everyone understood this point, her words still had a significant impact. The point that “superpower users can evolve” filled everyone with hope!
Yes! If zombies could evolve, so could superpower users! What was there to fear?
Captain Zhou knew very well the serious impact of low morale. Seeing everyone’s spirits lifted by Fang Yuxin’s words, he struck while the iron was hot, “Miss Fang is right! Everyone, don’t worry, we can definitely evolve! Sooner or later, we’ll eradicate all those disgusting zombies!”
Fang Yuyang added, “Correct! As long as we become stronger, we can certainly eradicate all zombies!”
Fang Yuxin didn’t know if such a day would truly come, but at that moment, her heart was also filled with hope!
Perhaps because most of the surrounding zombies had been drawn away by the Zombie Leader, they encountered only a few isolated zombies after staying there for a while and did not come across any more Zombie Groups.
Time ticked away, second by second, and half an hour after the eight speed superpower users had left, they finally reappeared in everyone’s line of sight! However, behind these eight people were now hundreds of zombies! (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for a recommendation ticket, monthly ticket.
