Chapter 007: Evolution

The zombie's ten fingers, sharp as blades, reached out towards Zero. He had no choice but to raise the automatic rifle in his hands to block the demon's claws. Both sides began the most primal struggle. Zero could only feel the two slender arms of his opponent, yet they possessed the strength of a tyrannosaurus. He had exerted all his strength, but the automatic rifle was gradually being pushed down towards him by the other party.

Would the team that encountered the same task six months ago still remain quietly in the city's school upon learning that the living corpses had once been visited by humans for the sake of medicine? Or have they already moved to the hospital, waiting for the next moment of human visitation?

Her gaze fell upon the revolver in Zero's hand, then quickly turned to glance at the sheriff's corpse ahead, before she slowly stood up and moved away from Zero's body

With both hands released, the still twitching body and head of the male corpse were casually thrown to the ground by Mary

A pale leg, covered in dark blue and dark red mottles, swept across the spot where Ling had just been. Judging by the force of the wind it generated, this kick must have weighed several hundred pounds. If it were to hit, Ling would be in considerable pain

With a clang, the medicine cabinet crashed to the ground, sparking a few tiny flames, yet Ling remained unscathed. However, just as he came to a halt, a strong wind bore down upon him. Ling's vision blurred, and the weight of his body suddenly increased, as the living corpse of the beautiful woman settled onto him.

The machine gun in hand was raised, and regardless of how beautiful the opponent had been in life, they were now merely a mutated corpse. Zero would not show any pity; the recent struggle with the two had already caused the gun's body to dent and deform. If he were to fire now, it was more likely that the machine gun would explode into two pieces. Shattered fragments and shell casings would embed themselves in Zero's body, taking away his life.

Undoubtedly, she is a stunningly attractive woman. However, when this beauty's eyes emit a captivating red glow, her skin exposed to the air displays patches of dark blue and deep red, and she holds aloft a deformed medicine cabinet, no man with a sound mind could possibly find her appealing

This series of muscle movements is carried out beyond the awareness of Zero, who is currently oblivious to the unusual sensations in his body. Zero's attention is captivated by the graceful form before him

However, Zuo Ge never mentioned that a zombie could retain memories from its living days, so how should the current situation be explained... Unless...

Zero did not turn around, but instead rolled directly towards the sheriff's body. After rolling twice in succession, he quickly adjusted his posture and faced the door.

She reached out and grabbed the limping man's corpse, pulling it over. Mary opened her mouth and bit into his neck. From the perspective of zero, one could see the corpse's body convulsing continuously, with a small jet of blood spraying out from the side of Mary's head

The male corpse struggled to rise, and Mary bent down and leaped high, landing heavily on the male corpse.

An inexplicable scene surprised Zero; he suddenly noticed that the chest of the living corpse bore a name tag, on which the name "Mary" was written

The male corpse looked at Mary with fear, yet seemed unwilling, repeatedly growling in the direction of zero.

This scene is so familiar, the only difference being that the character pinned beneath Mary has transformed from zero to this male corpse. Pressing down on the male corpse, Mary’s claws, sharp as knives, continuously pierced into the corpse and forcefully tore apart its body. As chunks of flesh, internal organs, and broken bones were relentlessly extracted and discarded by Mary, the movements of the male corpse gradually ceased. Yet Mary did not stop; she nearly excavated everything from within the corpse, her entire being drenched in dark red blood, resembling a demon rising from hell.

Yet Mary did not stop; she nearly excavated everything from within the corpse, her entire being drenched in dark red blood, resembling a demon rising from hell.

This is the conclusion he just reached, and it has been confirmed through the encounter and subsequent tearing apart of the three living corpses that just occurred.

She let out an incomprehensible shriek and hurled the cabinet towards Zero. Just moments ago, Zero had been struck by the cabinet, leaving half of her body numb, yet she remained calm and quickly rolled to the side

Standing at over 180 cm tall, cascading gray-silver hair flows like a waterfall, and a delicate face resembles that of a model on the runway. Sensual lips are slightly parted, revealing a slender, pointed pink tongue that gently licks the lips. She is dressed in a white nurse's uniform, with the collar partially open, allowing a pair of full, rounded breasts to push the collar high.

Language, communication, class... all of this indicates that the living dead have quietly evolved in another direction. The various phenomena that Zero just witnessed are evidently a prototype of a certain social form. He does not know whether the living dead, who have already formed their own unique society, can still simply be referred to as monsters.

Compared to this terrifying scene, the possibility of zero has been profoundly shocking as it has already been confirmed

It no longer mattered to hide one's tracks; from the moment they entered the hospital, the battle between humans and the living dead had quietly begun. Unfortunately, apart from Zero, the others were unaware of this!

The door to the pharmacy suddenly swung open, and two male zombies staggered in. They seemed drawn by the commotion inside the pharmacy, but upon seeing Mary, they hesitated and took a step back. The two zombies appeared to be in their thirties, both possessing strong physiques, and were dressed in security uniforms. One of them was limping, walking unsteadily. The other had a portion of its skull caved in, with its right eyeball nearly popping out of its socket, rolling around and fixating on Zero.

The room was very quiet, with no gunshots ringing out. Zero wished he could slap himself; in his haste, he forgot that the handgun was not loaded.

Zero has conceived a shocking possibility

The other male corpse seemed to be provoked by the frenzied scene before him, and he shouted as he lunged at Mary. This male corpse had considerable strength, crashing into Mary and pushing her against the cabinet beside Zero. However, Zero watched as Mary suddenly grabbed the male corpse by the waist with both hands and lifted him with force. She treated him as if he were weightless, violently slamming the male corpse onto the ground, into the cabinet, and finally throwing him against the wall

Mary, with blood all over her mouth, released the male corpse. She inserted her fingers into the neck of the corpse and violently pulled them apart. The sound of flesh tearing echoed as Zero watched Mary brutally rip open the neck of the male corpse and forcefully pull his head off.

Two living corpses emitted hissing sounds from their throats. Mary, who had been squatting beside the sheriff, suddenly stood up, making varying lengths of cries towards them and waving her arms in a gesture of driving them away

Mary opened her mouth, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth, and let out an angry shout at them, suddenly lunging forward

After killing the male corpse, Mary remained seated on top of it, unwilling to get up. She lowered her head, moving her hands, continuously feeding herself with the contents of the corpse. The entire room was filled with the sound of her chewing, sending chills down one's spine.

The length of the nurse's uniform reaches just above the knee, around 10 cm, thus revealing a pair of long, beautiful legs that are enough to attract the attention of any male creature

The eyelids twitched slightly, and the pharmacy had turned into a scene of carnage. Dark red blood pooled together, the ground was littered with flesh and shattered bones, as well as rotting entrails and intestines. The level of disgust was enough to make even seasoned soldiers vomit on the spot, and Zero also felt a wave of discomfort in his stomach, yet he ultimately did not expel the contents of his stomach.

Moreover, and more importantly, based on the behavior of Mary and the male corpse, these monsters have begun to possess intelligence. Therefore, does the sense of crisis that Zero experiences upon entering the basement indicate that the intelligent undead are setting a trap, waiting for Zoge and the others to deliver themselves right to their doorstep

At the moment of nearing the ground, the muscles on Zero's back make subtle adjustments. They first stretch to the maximum extent, maintaining the flexibility of the muscles. In the brief instant of contact with the ground, the muscles gently rebound, causing Zero's body to slightly bounce upward by about 1 centimeter, while dissipating nearly 60% of the force, thus serving to absorb shock

Before he could clearly see the assailant's appearance, a shadow swept over. Zero raised his machine gun to his chest, serving as a makeshift buffer. The shadow struck Zero, and the immense force sent him flying, causing him to crash into three or four medicine cabinets before finally hitting the ground

The golden right eye suddenly contracted, and an unknown force erupted, causing Zero to sweep his machine gun horizontally, deflecting the undead's hands. However, the living and *illustrated* corpse still sat on him, pressing down even more onto Zero to stabilize its own body. Zero could already feel that he was almost about to penetrate the cold triangular area of the other. Unfortunately, he did not have necrophilia; such close contact only made him feel disgusted.

This coincides with the inscription on the revolver. Although Zero cannot believe it, judging by the situation of this living corpse squatting next to the sheriff's body and examining it closely, it seems that she is indeed the sheriff's lover

Mary had previously shown that she still remembered Sheriff Smith's actions, which had led Zero to suspect that the zombies possessed memory. Subsequently, when the male corpse intruded, their shouting was evidently a form of communication and dialogue. The varying lengths of the syllables clearly constituted the language of the zombies, while the fear exhibited by the male corpses towards Mary indicated that a hierarchy had begun to form among the zombies.

Zero approached the sheriff, removed the last remaining ammunition from him, and silently loaded ten bullets into the cylinder of the revolver.

No matter how alluring a corpse may be, even if it could move, it would not evoke normal physiological desires in a person

In a decisive moment, Zero released the automatic rifle and quickly drew the M500 revolver he had obtained from the sheriff. Zero aimed at the living corpse and pulled the trigger

The zombie opened its mouth and emitted a foul stench, discarding the automatic rifle, and was about to replicate the same method to destroy the revolver in Zero's hand. However, just as it grasped the cold barrel of the gun, for some unknown reason, the zombie's movements came to a halt

Evolution

Ling was momentarily taken aback; at this moment of distraction, the undead approached with both hands. She seized Ling's machine gun and, with extraordinary strength, forcibly bent the barrel. As a result, even if Ling's machine gun remained intact, it would no longer be able to fire a single bullet.
