I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 1457 - 1452: No Absolute Control?

Chapter 1457: Chapter 1452: No Absolute Control?

Under Tang Ye’s control, he found the saved surveillance footage, located the date from yesterday, and then located the surveillance footage belonging to the second floor. Soon, the surveillance screen appeared on the computer screen. With every click of the mouse, the time in the surveillance footage started to rewind.

The time rewound continuously from 7:58 am back to 12:00 am, at which point Tang Ye stopped rewinding and started to watch at ten times speed.

The time on the screen jumped crazily like a stopwatch. The corridor shown in the footage was shades of gray and white, but Room 203 was clearly visible. Occasionally, there were glitches on the screen, causing Tang Ye to pause now and then to take a better look at something.

After about ten or more minutes, Tang Ye, sitting in the chair, furrowed his brows in disappointment. From midnight to six o’clock, nothing unusual appeared in the surveillance footage, not even his own figure. He was certain he had visited this man yesterday, but he was not on the footage.

A flash of insight crossed his mind, but it quickly faded away. Tang Ye knew that damn feeling of forgetfulness was coming again, but he was helpless.

"No, wait, if I was sleeping yesterday, why do I have this memory... Nope, that’s not right. Should be if what I experienced was real, then why isn’t it there?... That’s not right either... Just now, I thought I had... This is so annoying!... It seems that the Nightmare Zombie King doesn’t have absolute control over this world, does it?"

For some reason, Tang Ye came to this mysterious conclusion and then confirmed it without hesitation!

Once he had confirmed it, it seemed like some restrictions on his thought process were lifted, and he immediately figured out the reason. If everything was created by the Nightmare Zombie King, then in this world, it should have absolute ability to reshape reality, just like someone in a lucid dream who can have anything they want, capable of anything!

He recalled waking up suddenly in the hotel room from the zoo, and that the time before that was no later than 3 am, and even more. From 3 am to past 7 am, a time span of a little over three hours, he was unaware and didn’t feel anything external. During this time, the creator of this world had all the time to deal with him, but he did not?

What could be the reason? Tang Ye didn’t think the Nightmare Zombie King was soft-hearted towards him; otherwise, it wouldn’t have brought him here. From the people in this world, Tang Ye could glean some information that supported the conclusion he had made, of course, not ruling out that this world was completely controlled by it. Then, everyone was essentially it, and it could have whatever it wanted done. But if that were the case, then what was with the sporadic feelings of forgetfulness?

He watched as the view at the end of the corridor monitored by the camera slowly brightened with sunlight streaming in, showing the time at 6:26 am. At that moment, a person wearing black clothes passed by outside, it was a police officer who had come to investigate and gather evidence at the hotel.

As they passed by the nearby window, cursing under their breath and saying something indistinctly, Tang Ye turned to look outside and saw one of the three policemen on the phone.

"Why are there so many violating the regulations?"

"This fucking day, three dead! Isn’t it chaotic enough?"

"Another violation of the regulations led to death?"

"Yeah, at the Martyrs’ Cemetery. A male and a female, the female seventeen years old, from T Province, living in Zhong City, the male eighteen, also a sophomore in high school, also from T Province, Zhong City."

"Alright, enough, stop fucking yelling, one just died in the hotel, and now you’re bringing more, how many times this month already?"

"I don’t care, I’ll bring people over later, let’s clear out everyone lingering inside first, this is so annoying!"

One policeman shouted angrily into the phone, then led the other two towards the parking lot entrance.

And inside, Tang Ye immediately reacted upon hearing their conversation!

"Damn!"

He only realized what he was thinking just now at the scene; the man in the hotel’s second-floor room was in trouble. What about that couple at the Martyrs’ Cemetery?

Cursing inwardly, Tang Ye dashed out of the room, leaping towards the direction of the Martyrs’ Cemetery. It was seven or eight kilometers away from the Xiangyi Hotel, a distance that meant little to Tang Ye. Soon, Tang Ye’s figure appeared at the entrance of the Martyrs’ Cemetery. The spot where Lu Xin and his girlfriend slept last night was now surrounded by many people, all pointing and discussing something.

Sniffing the air, Tang Ye caught the familiar scent of blood, causing his brow to furrow.

"Move back, everyone move back, stop looking!"

A robust male voice suddenly rang out among the crowd; a shush followed from the people, but they eventually made way. As the crowd dispersed, Tang Ye saw two bodies covered with white cloths at the center of the attention, the ground around them splattered with blood and even some flesh bits. Some of the men in black overcoats he had seen at the hotel were also there, carefully collecting these bits of flesh and placing them on top of the two covered bodies.

The white cloth covering the bodies barely showed its original color; most of it was stained red with blood. Just seeing this scene made one feel that this was even more gruesome than the man’s death at the hotel!

"They died so young, barely twenty years old. What a pity."

"That’s why you shouldn’t violate the standard regulations."

"Get to the side! Why block the way? What’s there to see? You’ll be next! Really!"

Among the crowd, some voiced their sympathy, while a few men in black overcoats were frankly scolding the onlookers!

However, no one in the crowd got angry; under the drive of the men in black overcoats, everyone obediently moved away without saying a word. As opposed to some in the crowd who started to look pale and nauseous, those dressed in black overcoats, seemingly professionals in handling corpses, were composed. They skillfully gathered the scattered flesh, sorting and placing pieces accordingly onto different bodies.

Tang Ye, bypassing the crowd, approached the two bodies and asked others with a puzzled look, "Hey, what happened to these two?"

"They died, died for violating standard regulations."

"You guys were spending the night here last night, right?"

"Yep."

"Did you see how they died?"

"Who saw anything? If you violate the regulations, you typically die that night. Even if you wake up and sense something, who would dare to open their eyes and look?"

The person questioned by Tang Ye took a look at him and then turned his head back to continue watching the men in black overcoats handle the bodies. This sight, though rare, struck a mix of fear and curiosity among the people.

PS: Going back to my hometown tomorrow, most of the day will probably be spent on the road since I’m driving, and won’t have time to write. Taking a day off, please excuse me (I know I take leave a lot, deal with a lot of crap.)
