The memories replayed in Mu Qiu's brain like a film...
In those moments, Mu Qiu felt dizzy, his brain on the verge of bursting!
When he finished processing the memories, fine cold sweat had already appeared on Mu Qiu's forehead. He clearly saw that the blood-red figure in the memory was his own face!
And this world was no longer the real world he lived in. The zombie virus had broken out here two years ago. Cities were overrun by a massive zombie army. Countless people were displaced, their families torn apart.
And the "self" in the memory was not spared. What surprised him was that he had turned into a mutant zombie!
Evolved a powerful ability—devouring!
His flame ability was obtained after devouring the unicorn monster in his memory! And he became stronger step by step while devouring, eventually becoming the zombie emperor in this city!
He realized that the zombie he had just devoured was also a mutant zombie, and the ability it evolved was ice!
"Did I travel to a parallel world, or..."
Mu Qiu's face turned horrified, his brow furrowed.
Another guess that Mu Qiu didn't dare voice was that the past ten years in real life were all a dream! The real him had turned into a zombie that devoured human flesh and blood two years ago!
But he couldn't dwell on it. He remembered that he had been captured by the neighboring survivor base two months ago! He had suffered inhuman abuse and research during those two months!
However, he relied on his strong self-healing ability to break free from the restraints three days ago, and fled back to his territory after causing chaos in the base. He regained consciousness after fainting during his escape!
Soldiers were still chasing him!
"No matter what, I'm in a very dangerous situation now!"
Mu Qiu forced himself to calm down.
Gusts of cold wind whistled, and Mu Qiu, whose body had evolved into a zombie king, felt a chill.
Without time to sort out the clues, and ignoring the shriveled corpse beside him, Mu Qiu hurriedly changed into the bloodstained clothes.
With a thought, a ball of fire appeared in his palm, and the tattered clothes and the shriveled corpse were burned to ashes!
Just as he stood up staggeringly, he heard footsteps behind him. Mu Qiu smiled bitterly but didn't run.
If the probability of a capable person appearing among humans was one in a thousand, then the probability of a mutant zombie among zombies was one in ten thousand!
Unlike mutant zombies with mutations in their bodies, true mutant zombies had all kinds of abilities, each weird and powerful, making them hard to defend against!
Already trapped in a heavy siege, escape was impossible in his current state.
The meticulous Mu Qiu immediately made a decision—to blend into human society!
A zombie trying to blend into the human world!
This decision sounded horrifying, but even though Mu Qiu had received all the memories and combat experience of the "Zombie King," it didn't mean he could accept becoming a zombie that ate human flesh and blood.
Subconsciously, he still hoped to stay in human society.
He swore he wasn't thinking about sneaking into humans to survive because he was afraid of death!
But could he really get away with it?
Ka.
"Who is it?"
Hearing the voice behind him, Mu Qiu subconsciously raised his hands, turned around, and faced the soldiers, looking surprised and panicked.
"Puff!"
A girl's pleasant laughter came from the front of the soldiers. Mu Qiu looked closely and saw a pretty girl in blue in the crowd. Unlike the other soldiers, this girl didn't wear the special forces combat uniform and didn't seem to have any protective gear. Several others in the team were dressed similarly.
This girl must be a capable person!
Mu Qiu thought.
As the name suggested, ability users were humans who had undergone mutations and evolution after being infected with the virus. They were now the fighters at the forefront of humanity!
"Uncle is so funny!" The girl smiled at the leader, covering her mouth. Indeed, Mu Qiu, now in the mummy's clothes, had bloodstained white clothes, and his handsome face was covered with dirt and blood. His panicked expression and raised hands made him look extremely embarrassed and weird.
The awkward situation was broken by the girl's words. The leading captain looked at the blue-clothed girl helplessly and said, "You girl..."
Family members knew their own affairs. This girl had been eccentric since she was a child. Now that the end of the world had come, this child had awakened her superpowers and no one could control her.
"Just... Just now a red monster passed by here and burned a zombie... to ashes!"
Mu Qiu said tremblingly, but his eyes kept staring at the blue-light guns in the soldiers' hands.
In his memory, these guns were improved versions, with great lethality to zombies.
To deal with me, even these weapons were brought out?
He understood many things instantly, his body trembling, and then layers of frost appeared on the ground!
"...my home is nearby. I went out to look for food because I was too hungry. I didn't do anything..."
Seeing the layers of frost condensing on the ground, the girl in blue exclaimed,
"This kind of ability, could it be that this is a rare elemental ability user!"
"What? There can be people with abilities in dangerous areas like the Red Zone? Or are they elemental ones?"
"This is a real treasure!"
Everyone looked at each other, talking, and looked at Mu Qiu with surprise. The captain didn't say anything but looked at the alley, then raised his communicator. "Report the S-class heretic—Lord Fire Demon. We have fled to Area A3... In addition, we found a survivor in an alley, suspected to have elemental powers..."
A cold female voice came from the communicator: "Take the survivors back to the base and order Group C in Area A3 to prepare to meet the enemy. The other teams will continue to hunt and gather for an ambush to capture the target at any time!"
The captain waved his hand and said to the girl in blue, "Ling'er, take the survivors back to the base for an awakening test. The people in Group A will follow me and continue the search!"
"Yes!"
"Ah? Why do you need me to do this kind of thing again?"
Hearing the girl's complaint, it was obvious this wasn't the first time she had picked up a survivor. Mu Qiu blinked her "innocent" eyes and said nothing.
Watching the team leave, only Mu Qiu and the girl in blue were left in the small alley. The girl in blue reached out her hand, smiled, and said, "Introduce yourself, I am Wei Ling'er, a member of the Yuhai Base Special Forces..."
Mu Qiu hesitated, then held the blood-stained hand and said, trying to sound nervous, "Mu Qiu, my name is Mu Qiu..."
"Mu Qiu, right? I'll take you back to the base now. We're on the edge of the Red Zone and shouldn't encounter powerful monsters. Don't worry, I can punch those ordinary zombies in the Green Zone one by one!" After saying that, the girl raised her arms. Her slender white arms seemed to have no strength at all...
The sun gradually dropped below the horizon, and the shadows of the two people in the dusk were stretched long.
