Chapter 641: Chapter 641: Pretending to Be Calm
One move, done.
The zombie in a suit raised his crooked eyebrows, clapped his hands, and looked very pleased with himself.
The Emperor’s command, completed!
When the flesh and blood were devoured clean, the zombie group quieted down.
All the zombies stood still in place, reverting to their previous dazed look.
The zombie in a suit reached out and touched his distinctly styled hair, then walked towards the dirt wall.
Along with the Yao family father and son, a bronze sword had fallen, but the zombies paid no attention to the sword lying on the ground.
With decaying fingers, the bronze sword was picked up from the ground. After just a glance, the zombie in a suit no longer bothered with it, but didn’t throw it back on the ground.
He held the bronze sword and slowly left the Ming City Safety Base.
He did not command the zombies inside the safety base, nor did he have any intention of taking them away.
The Emperor would not keep so many subordinates; the Emperor could command as many as he wanted, whenever he wished.
They wandered aimlessly inside the safety base, only flesh and blood could catch their attention.
It is estimated that in the foreseeable future, no survivors will set foot inside the Ming City Safety Base.
The zombie in a suit exited the safety base and walked directly in a direction, where not far away, a bus painted in a color similar to that of the Bai Family was parked.
The bus door was open, and he walked straight onto it.
"Uncle, did you complete the task Brother Zhang assigned to you?"
Fan Tangtang’s childish voice came from the seat, with big eyes staring at the zombie in a suit that had just come up, blinking.
The zombie in a suit glanced fearfully at Fan Tangtang and slowly nodded his head.
"Good that it’s completed! Otherwise, Brother Zhang would be angry!"
Fan Tangtang was happy to see the response from the zombie in a suit and smiled brightly.
Before Brother Zhang was killed by Brother Xiao Fan’s elder sister, Brother Zhang was the most terrifying presence. Failing to complete a task would have been disastrous.
The bus door closed, and Fan Liping started the bus, driving in the direction of the Yunhua Safety Base.
He didn’t ask what task Zhang Yiming had given them, nor was he curious.
He had already stood on the opposite side of humans, and asking too many questions could easily trap him in a vicious cycle.
He understood clearly that his son was a zombie, a creature that needed to consume humans. Since he stood by his son’s side, he could never be a good person in this lifetime.
Zhang Yiming appeared gentle and quiet, yet he was a Zombie Emperor, capable of commanding almost every zombie visible to the naked eye.
He was just more lenient towards certain people, but inherently, he still possessed the cold-blooded nature of a zombie.
Since they had decided to stay within this circle, there was no need to ask too many questions!
Not only did Fan Liping think this way, but even Hu Meiling did. Their only wish was to be with their son.
Their son devoured humans, and they spent every day with zombies, caring not for human lives. They even watched many humans die at the hands of zombies without ever intervening.
The family of three were not good people.
And that’s fine too.
If there really was a Hell, the family of three would be together in it too.
The bus soon left the vicinity of the Ming City Safety Base, preparing to head to the Yunhua Safety Base to pick up Zhang Yiming.
In fact, the bus had initially followed Zhang Yiming to near the courtyard where the three butchers were.
They encountered the Bai Family, but the bus did not only have the Fan Family, there were also the zombie in a suit, Xiao Song Zombie, and other zombies.
The floor inside the entire bus was covered with black blood, which even with frequent cleaning, still exuded a decaying odor.
Thus, Zhang Yiming did not inform the Bai Family that the bus was nearby, he chose to travel with them instead.
And ran into a bunch of people looking for trouble.
The Zombie Emperor’s rage, corpses floating over a thousand miles.
Meanwhile.
After walking a distance, Bai Xiqin and the others finally saw an abandoned car whose door was still open.
Inside was black blood, which had not yet coagulated.
The car owner clearly encountered misfortune recently.
Bai Xiqin glanced at it, finding there was still gasoline in the car, enough for them to return to the safety base together.
Bai Xiqin rummaged in her pocket, actually pulling out a handkerchief from her space.
These days, few would use a handkerchief to wipe sweat anymore, and she felt pulling out a towel from her pocket would be too absurd, so she casually took out a handkerchief.
The handkerchief was something casually stocked up while collecting resources, with a cheaply machine-embroidered lotus flower, its stitches appearing neither tidy nor dense.
It was sufficient for wiping black blood.
Bai Xiqin casually wiped the black blood on the seat, and the white handkerchief was instantly dyed black.
Black was so penetrating.
After casually tossing the blackened handkerchief aside, Bai Xiqin sat in the driver’s seat of the car.
Not having driven in a long time, Bai Xiqin wanted to experience what it felt like to be a female driver.
Leng Yebai naturally sat in the passenger seat, leaving Bai Anhai and Zhang Yiming to sit in the back.
Once seated, Bai Xiqin slammed the accelerator straight to the floor.
The car jerked violently; the massive inertia pinned everyone in the car firmly to their seats.
The scenery outside the car windows quickly blurred past.
The trees almost became mere shadows.
"Xiao Ming, I heard on the radio from a Zombie King that a Zombie Alliance has been established?"
Bai Anhai glanced out the window, swallowed some saliva, his fingers gripping the seat below him, feigning calmness while intentionally making conversation with Zhang Yiming to divert his attention.
He, after all, was the man who had been hit and sent flying by his unfilial son Bai Yifan. The facts proved that even after a car accident, you wouldn’t necessarily die.
At most, it just hurt a bit.
Externally stoic like an old dog, internally a panicked mess.
"Yes, but it’s just an inexperienced Zombie King, no need to worry."
Zhang Yiming chuckled lightly, showing no particular reaction to Bai Anhai’s words.
It’s not that he’s afraid of a Zombie King, just that he’s somewhat fearful of becoming the first Zombie King to die in a car accident.
That would be incredibly embarrassing.
"Is there really a zombie joining that alliance?"
Bai Anhai expressed some curiosity.
After all, the Zombie Alliance seemed to be quite detrimental to humans, and sooner or later humans would confront the Zombie Alliance.
This could potentially impact humanity’s future, something Bai Anhai was pretty keen on knowing.
Lacking the knowledge that the future of humans and zombies didn’t revolve around the so-called Zombie Alliance.
The future lied with the gentle and sunny-looking Zombie Emperor before him.
"There are, but none are strong enough to pose any serious threat." Zhang Yiming said.
Zhang Yiming felt that no zombie posed much of a threat, every zombie he ever encountered had brainwaves so weak that he could easily command them.
Except for his future self, he’d never encountered a zombie that he couldn’t command.
Therefore, to him, no matter how many zombies the so-called Zombie Alliance Gathers, it wouldn’t matter. He could effortlessly dismantle them with a single thought.
"That’s good then!"
Bai Anhai felt a bit relieved hearing Zhang Yiming’s words.
It seemed humanity could still hold on for a few more springs, summers, falls, and winters.
"Do you think the Zombie Alliance is bad?"
Zhang Yiming glanced at the handkerchief stained with black blood discarded by Bai Xiqin, his eyes flickering slightly.
If humans and zombies could coexist peacefully, he thought, founding a Zombie Alliance wouldn’t be a bad thing.
But...
"If another Zombie King were the captain of that alliance, surely it wouldn’t be good. If it were Xiao Ming, it would seem okay." Bai Anhai said earnestly.
"Why?"
Zhang Yiming asked in return.
"Because you’re the most approachable Zombie King we’ve ever met." Bai Anhai said.
Hearing Bai Anhai’s words, Zhang Yiming smiled without saying a word.
