I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 1472 - 1467: The Surging Tide of Corpses

Chapter 1472: Chapter 1467: The Surging Tide of Corpses

"I can understand a bit, but isn’t it that if something happens to you here, the you outside will change accordingly? Like if you get injured, the you outside will also get injured."

"You can say that, but it doesn’t manifest in the way you just described."

"What is it like then?" Tang Ye continued to ask, but Lu Xiaojie seemed no longer in the mood to answer further, saying impatiently, "Stop asking, just hurry up outside."

Tang Ye just furrowed his brow, but he saw no need to press Lu Xiaojie further on this matter, his curiosity mostly lying in the physical sensations she could feel currently, though he supposed he might experience something similar?

Lu Xiaojie climbed onto Tang Ye’s back and pointed ahead, saying, "Let’s move forward."

Tang Ye nodded and also removed the turban wrapped around his head, running towards the direction Lu Xiaojie had pointed. As the dim light of the candles moved farther from them, darkness gradually enveloped both of their figures. Tang Ye was surprised to find that his night vision abilities were not functioning.

In the darkness, he was unable to see the objects ahead clearly; only the stubborn light from the candle in Lu Xiaojie’s hand continued to pierce the surrounding darkness, preventing them from losing their way.

"Turn left!"

"What?"

Not long after they continued forward, Lu Xiaojie suddenly spoke up from his back.

"Turn left?"

Tang Ye focused and noticed a cross corridor in the darkness ahead. He quickened his pace and turned left into the corridor as the woman had instructed.

"Next, turn left again!" Lu Xiaojie spoke up once more.

The next second, Tang Ye saw several branching paths appear in the corridor ahead. This was not just any building’s corridor but rather a complex network of passages beneath an ancient castle!

He again followed Lu Xiaojie’s directions, twisting into another corridor that just appeared.

"Forward, and I’ll tell you when to turn again."

"Alright then."

Tang Ye couldn’t help but lament internally, feeling like he was walking in a labyrinth; he might already be unable to find the original staircase they entered from, but Lu Xiaojie remembers it so clearly, indicating how long she must have pondered over this place.

"Are you sure the bodies would be placed in these locations?"

"Don’t look at everything here from your own perspective. Those bodies might be very important to Dairya."

"Very important, huh?" Tang Ye repeated in his mind, but the next moment, Lu Xiaojie’s cautionary voice suddenly rang out!

"Be careful!"

"Hmm?"

Tang Ye was initially stunned, then felt a force on his ankle. However, this force was far too slight for him; he barely even felt it.

As he looked down, Tang Ye saw a withered, rotting hand gripping his foot! Looking up the arm, it appeared that the hand extended out from the ground, and the floor was densely covered with human-shaped graffiti, turning the whole corridor’s ground white, with only few blank spaces outlining human shapes.

Just as Lu Xiaojie’s voice fell, the withered hand holding Tang Ye’s ankle elongated, with more parts of its body extending out of a human-shaped graffiti, indeed gripping Tang Ye, but the strength it possessed was far from enough to restrain him!

Err... huh huh roar!

A roar was heard, and the owner of the withered hand was pulled out from the human graffiti, dragged by Tang Ye’s force, like a common man hung on a train, their body colliding left and right against the corridor walls, making "bang bang bang" noises!

They hadn’t gone far when the zombie’s body was shattered into pieces, leaving only a small segment of a severed hand hanging on Tang Ye’s foot.

Turning his head back, Tang Ye snorted coldly, and Lu Xiaojie immediately said, "Stop dallying, let’s move faster, there will be more coming soon!"

Without further delay, Tang Ye pressed on forward, and shortly, just as Lu Xiaojie had said, more zombies crawled out from the densely packed human-shaped graffiti on the ground, displaying a true madness that surpassed the external zombies; they seemed unaware that Tang Ye was several levels above them, and upon seeing him approach, they roared furiously and lunged at him with bared teeth and claws!

But their bodies were too fragile, they couldn’t even reach Tang Ye and were torn apart by the gusts he stirred!

"Slow down a bit, it’s too fast, I can’t see clearly!"

Lu Xiaojie, positioned on Tang Ye’s back, also felt her face hurt from the gust, to the point where she couldn’t even open her eyes, and she struggled to breathe, eventually having no choice but to speak out.

Tang Ye slowed down a bit, turning to look behind where zombies, one after another, crawled out from the human-shaped graffiti; contrary to what he thought, each human-shaped graffiti didn’t just hold one zombie, but several or even countless!

Indeed, the areas he and Lu Xiaojie passed were already crammed with these mad zombies, roaring and charging fearlessly towards Tang Ye!

At the same time, a large number of zombies were emerging from the human-shaped graffiti ahead, as if the ground was continuously spewing zombies, giving Tang Ye a surreal feeling as if he was an ordinary man facing a zombie tide.

"After two more room doors, let’s go in there."

Lu Xiaojie pointed to the front while smashing the head of a freshly crawled-out zombie from the graffiti with a shovel, and Tang Ye followed her guidance, dashed past two room doors, burst through one, and shut the door.

"I’ll get down." After setting Lu Xiaojie down from his back, Tang Ye surveyed the surroundings; it was a very spacious room with nothing inside, only noting some exquisite wall decorations.

"What’s in the other rooms?" Tang Ye asked as the zombies’ roars outside continuously bombarded their ears.

"The same as here, nothing, follow me."

Xiaojie raised her hand and waved at Tang Ye, then walked towards the other side of the room.

Tang Ye glanced at the ground, which was just like the outside, densely covered with human-shaped graffiti. After they entered, the zombies hiding in the human-shaped graffiti sensed live humans coming in, and rotten corpse claws extended from the graffiti. However, Lu Xiaojie did not show any panic typical of a normal person, casually shoveling a zombie’s head as she walked.

"You need collaborators to come in here, right?" Tang Ye doubted a normal person could get through this sea of zombies without dying hundreds of times.

"Much needed, if there’s a collaborator like you, it would really save a lot of time and be more relaxing."

"Of course, a collaborator like you isn’t available every day."
