I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 1478 - 1473: What Exactly is Being Hidden?

Chapter 1478: Chapter 1473: What Exactly is Being Hidden?

"The weakest spot? Like a recycling station?"

"Possibly, you don’t understand Dairya. Of course, while I do understand her, it’s not very deep. I only know some of the experiences she has been through, but I don’t have the time to tell you the story now, and you don’t have the time either. Anyway, what I know relates to her abilities about falsehood, illusions, and forcing people to dream, among other things."

"So she’s called the Nightmare Zombie King outside."

"Ah? That’s quite fitting. Dairya has a hobby, which is making her victims experience some of her past when she kills them."

"Have you experienced it?" Tang Ye asked.

"Only partially, but from what I know, places like churches, toilets, and schools have some of her bad experiences, with school leaving the biggest psychological scar. Even becoming a zombie didn’t make her forget it."

"School bullying huh..."

Tang Ye recalled the last clause of the regulatory statutes, which is the most important one no matter where, probably related to school bullying.

But how significant a psychological scar did school bullying leave on Dairya to cause her to remember it even after becoming a zombie? And the only way people here dealt with school bullying was by killing the bully, with those who didn’t manage to do so ending up dead.

Of course, death being the only outcome, because even if some people get their hands on a crow by some means, they end up dead, thinking they’re still alive, and it’s not easy for an ordinary person to get a crow either.

"If each changing scenario has these relevant facilities, then the regulatory statutes might come into play..." Lu Xiaojie shook her head, a brief glimpse of confusion flashed across her eyes, a look Tang Ye was very familiar with, as he often had similar feelings of forgetting something.

"Ah, it’s really annoying, anyway, that’s all I can say. It’s too complicated to explain why. Now only the church and the recycling station are left. As for clues, in such places, the more dangerous the place is, the more likely there is a way out, so the school was my first target to explore, besides the church and the recycling station, basically, all have my footprints."

"You..." Tang Ye’s eyes flickered, and he noticed a very suspicious detail, then said: "Since that’s the case, with the scenes changing, how can you be sure that the places you determined before won’t be altered due to the changes in the scene?"

Lu Xiaojie opened her mouth, her face becoming a bit troubled: "Well... those shadow graffiti you saw... are actually places where I have lied down..."

"I see..." Tang Ye gave Lu Xiaojie a knowing look, remembering what she had said during the woodcar ride: "Look ahead! Pay attention, I’ve never had an accident here..." Surprisingly, this statement was proven wrong so quickly. When she said those words, the ground was full of shadow graffiti. But it makes sense, after all, an ordinary person, in such a dangerous corridor, surrounded by darkness that even a Level 9 zombie like Tang Ye could not see through, wanting to enter that "morgue" with limited candlelight without any errors was very strange.

The first time visiting, even a Level 6 being would be in a panic.

But Tang Ye noticed something else from Lu Xiaojie’s words, implying that whenever someone died somewhere, a shadow graffiti of the body’s position would appear, and these shadow graffiti could give rise to zombies?

"Let’s go, I’ll take you to the church, and if we’re lucky, we might find a way out tonight."

Lu Xiaojie checked the time and then set off toward the southwest of Xi River city.

Tang Ye followed behind, asking a few questions from time to time.

"What if I slash those shadow paintings with a knife? Could I accidentally hit one of my kind?"

"Yes, but the prerequisite is that your unfortunate kind and we are on the same layer. I’m not talking about dimensions, but the same layer of the world."

"So are these zombies real or fake?"

"I’m sorry, I can’t answer that," she said. "But I can tell you, if an ordinary person is captured and injured, they won’t get infected. Whether your kind is real or fake, you’ll have to define that yourself."

"Won’t get infected..." These zombies, with their anti-life substance unable to zombify normal living beings, further prove that everything here is fake. Tang Ye was more curious about what he looked like outside now, although the outside Lu Xiaojie could already give an answer, but whether Lu Xiaojie is a twin entity, and whether the outside Lu Xiaojie is the same as this one here is hard to say.

Glancing at Lu Xiaojie’s retreating figure, Tang Ye suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu, but couldn’t pinpoint its origin.

"What exactly are you hiding?"

Despite the many flaws in her words, he just couldn’t remember what exactly was wrong. Moreover, when they came out of the recycling station, he didn’t follow up on a question he had asked, and why had he just given up?

The relationship between Dairya and Lu Xiaojie definitely wasn’t so simple. How could someone take such risks for a mere zombie’s request, especially an ordinary person?

And her purpose was merely to help Dairya find release. What was Lu Xiaojie after? Was it to save the world?

Could it be because she was a transmigrator like Su Sigui, knowing that Dairya would become the dread-inspiring Nightmare Zombie King in the future?

Sorry, that’s far-fetched!

"Alright, we’re here."

Soon, Lu Xiaojie stopped, looked around, and said.

"This is it?"

"Yes."

Tang Ye surveyed the surroundings. The burial site was behind a small hill, with hardly any vegetation around, just bare yellow earth. However, perhaps due to the moon overhead, the environment here seemed a bit brighter than other parts of Xi River city.

"Let’s get started!"

Lu Xiaojie shouted at Tang Ye, then took out a shovel she carried and plunged it into the ground, scooping up a large amount of yellow soil.

"Do I need to help?"

"No need, I’ll handle it quickly."

"Then why did you call me?"

"Uh... just a habit."

Lu Xiaojie chuckled and continued her actions, her movements both skilled and efficient. In no time, a large pit appeared before Tang Ye.

"Throw them in."

"All of them? Just like that?"

"Just throw them all in, no need to be too fussy, given our situation, where are we going to get coffins to fill it up?"
