I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 1109 - 1106: Reluctant Roar

Chapter 1109: Chapter 1106: Reluctant Roar

"Boss!" Ah Fu cried out upon seeing Tang Ye emerge.

Tang Ye looked around to ensure there was no one else, relaxed, nodded at Ah Fu, and then walked over to Xu Haishui. He squatted down to examine the strange patterns on Xu’s body.

"He should have recovered by now, but I don’t know why he fainted."

Speaking, Tang Ye placed his hand on Xu Haishui’s forehead and exerted force. The anti-life matter of the Silver Armor within Xu was activated. Xu Haishui’s body began to change toward normal human skin color, but the blood-red patterns from absorbing the mutant did not fade.

As the skin regained normal human appearance gradually lost its luster, the patterns remained vividly clear, signaling something wrong with him at first glance.

The patterns on the body were not critical; Xu Haishui merely needed to wrap himself tightly in clothes like before, so no one would be curious about his physical state.

After all, a grown man was relatively safe in a post-apocalyptic world.

The main issue was the patterns on Xu Haishui’s face, which looked like primitives from ancient times with peculiar tribal paint.

However, unlike ancient tribal face paint, the patterns on Xu Haishui’s face were indented into the skin with well-organized muscle fibers clearly visible—an unmistakable sign of non-human existence.

Initially, Xu Haishui’s transformation went smoothly. But a moment later, no matter how Tang Ye tried, Xu Haishui could not regain a completely normal human appearance. His skin had only faded slightly, and bizarre organs similar to fish fins were exposed on his back as the muscles retracted.

Seeing this, Tang Ye frowned. Xu Haishui’s change was significantly different from before; he could no longer perfectly disguise himself as a human.

"Boss, this..." Ah Fu scratched his head. He could tell what had happened to Xu Haishui, but if Xu remained this way, it meant he could never appear before people again!

"Boss, what should we do?" Ah Fu asked again.

However, Tang Ye shook his head nonchalantly, apparently unconcerned. He looked at Ah Fu and smiled, "Ah Fu, I know what you’re worried about, but this is an apocalypse; anything can happen here, and this might be for the better."

A gleam passed through Tang Ye’s eyes. In the apocalypse, some people evolved into new, strange-looking humans and were still considered normal.

Additionally, those who looked bizarre often had greater strength than those who looked regular.

And Xu Haishui could fabricate a lie, claiming he encountered those mutants, survived a transformation, and people might become more accepting of such "monsters" over time.

"Ah Fu, notify the nearest search team. Send them our location and tell them to come quickly."

"Yes." Ah Fu hesitated initially, thinking that his boss had come up with some plan, and within the Peace Party, he never had to consider such issues, focusing solely on asserting dominance through force.

...

Bang! Bang~ Boom!

Over in Longyang City, on a street long abandoned and untrodden, a hand burst through the cement road surface. Then, a second hand broke through, grabbed the edges of the cracked pavement, and heaved the underground body up.

Crack, crack—a few sounds later, the owner of these hands had crawled out of the ground, leaving a pit behind.

It was Lin Jie!

He had just climbed out, teetering unsteadily. His chest, where his shirt was already soaked in blood, alongside his face and any visible skin bore freshly formed scabs. His abdomen had suffered severe injuries, pierced by some weapon. It was clear by looking at the wound that his heart had been damaged—unless, like some rare individuals, his heart was on the right side, he was undoubtedly facing death.

But the world lacks such miracles, sadly. Like most people, his heart was on the left.

And as it appeared, his heart was damaged, far worse than Lin Jie had anticipated. When Tang Ye had struck him, the force used was intense, not merely piercing but shattering his heart into several pieces.

However, with the formidable vitality of a Level 7 New Human, he had survived for a couple more hours. But ultimately, he couldn’t live; despite escaping from under the ground, nothing could stop the life force bleeding out from his body.

"No!"

The freshly emerged Lin Jie roared at the sky, his shout laden with immense reluctance rather than the madness of bygone days.

This roar wasn’t about his reluctance to leave life; he believed there were still too many unpunished people in this world!

With those people alive, he absolutely couldn’t die!

Moreover, there remained a pain in his heart that had not been unleashed.

How could he die with such regret?

With that roar, a red vein crept across Lin Jie’s eyes, slowly spreading towards the whites of his eyes as time ticked by.

Gradually, Lin Jie felt several insane ideas emerging in his mind! At once, these thoughts excited him into a pathological exhilaration, causing him to burst into deranged laughter. After all, he hadn’t eaten humans before, right?

Why not give it a try?

Wouldn’t cannibalism be cruel, bloody?

No! Of course not!

Because, on the internet, people called him a devil. A devil is still a human, isn’t it?

"Hehehe~" Lin Jie stood next to the pit he had crawled out from, his body suddenly bending and twitching. His disheveled hair covered his face, but his grinning mouth was faintly visible.

His mouth was wide open, emitting a weird and deep laughter—like the wailing of souls in hell, chilling to the bone.

And in his eyes, the red veins intensified, gradually overtaking his pupils.

This notion was bizarre; Lin Jie had never considered it before, even if he battled with Tang Ye by biting, it was only because Lin Jie thought that such a level of combat required some madness, using any part of his body as a weapon.
