I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 300 - 299: Taming_1

Chapter 300: Chapter 299: Taming_1

Upon hearing these words, Tang Ye’s eyes narrowed slightly, his mind pondering before a moment of realization crossed his face, easing his expression.

"Ha ha ha, excellent, it seems we’ve indeed succeeded," Tang Ye evilly chuckled.

Tang Ye put down Xu Haishui, glancing at the lower half of his body, his smile brightening even more.

"You’ve obtained an incredible ability."

Previously, Xu Haishui, who was smashed from the fifth floor to the ground by Tang Ye and whose lower half had been reduced to pulp, was now restored to his original state, clearly having gained the zombie girl Mi’er’s abilities.

Xu Haishui’s face turned extremely sour. He was beginning to regret this deal, only now realizing the true nature of the relationship between Ah Fu and Tang Ye.

It was a one-way relationship that could not be changed. It wasn’t quite as bad as a puppet-master relationship, but it was close.

Xu Haishui’s fluctuating emotions matched those of Ah Fu. Any slight change would be detected by Tang Ye, indicating what? That any sort of betrayal on his part would instantly be detected by Tang Ye!

Furthermore, Xu Haishui was unable to sense Tang Ye’s feelings. It could be said that Ah Fu and him were mere servants before their master, Tang Ye, and it was natural for the master to kill his servant if need be.

Various emotions crossed Xu Haishui’s face, followed by deep resentment. But he couldn’t do anything about it, and that was the precise reason why Tang Ye hadn’t killed him yet.

Though Xu Haishui’s loyalty wasn’t as obsessive as Ah Fu’s, it was very close.

Understanding this, Xu Haishui had no choice but to submit, humbling himself before Tang Ye, "Our deal was successful. From now on, I will be as loyal as Ah Fu is."

Xu Haishui’s face was devoid of any expression, his eyes as dead as ever. Tang Ye wasn’t sure what he was thinking but didn’t press further. He only said, "Good, as long as you understand your place. Unless, of course, you’re not afraid of death... heh heh."

Tang Ye let out a menacing chuckle, leaving his sentence unfinished. But his meaning was clear.

The current Xu Haishui had miscalculated his final move, thinking the outcome would be simpler, and now he was paying the price.

Frankly speaking, unless he actively sought death, his life was not his to control, it wasn’t his anymore!

Tang Ye glanced at Xu Haishui’s appearance and frowned. He then said, "In your current state, it seems you can’t be of much help to me. You might as well move into the villa with Ah Fu. Without my permission, you are not allowed to leave, except for Ah Fu, of course."

Xu Haishui’s expression shifted, the horrifying zombie growing more terrifying. He hurriedly said to Tang Ye, "No, no, no ..."

Before he could finish speaking, Tang Ye shot him a sharp glance. Xu Haishui abruptly cut himself off and said, "Heh heh, I think I can call you Boss. As for the title you’re suggesting, perhaps a female zombie would be more suitable. Heh heh."

When Tang Ye heard this, he found it acceptable. He was already accustomed to being called Boss. The title Master was just a momentary whim, but when a man referred to him in such a way, it sent shivers down Tang Ye’s spine, despite being a zombie himself.

"Alright, but only if..." Before Tang Ye could finish, Xu Haishui quickly interrupted him.

"Boss, I know what you’re going to say. I don’t want to stay with that blockhead."

Xu Haishui knew perfectly well that if he was locked in that villa by Tang Ye, he would end up like his previous subordinates. After Tang Ye evolved to Level 6, he would still be stuck at Level 4. He wasn’t stupid.

The only way to succeed was to stay by Tang Ye’s side. A few days ago, Tang Ye had stepped out for a bit. Although he didn’t know where Tang Ye had gone, when he returned, he had evolved to Level 5.

Afterward, he took Ah Fu out and returned at Level 4. Because of these circumstances, Xu Haishui would do anything to avoid being stuck in the middle of nowhere at Level 4.

As he spoke, Xu Haishui’s scales receded completely. The stone-like skin on his body slowly reverted to flesh. In a short while, a young man in his early twenties was standing before Tang Ye.

Xu Haishui’s current appearance did resemble a human somewhat, except for his skin, which was clearly not human. Despite Xu Haishui attempting to mimic a human appearance, the sickly pallor of his skin gave him an unsettling appearance. His skin was too pale and lacked any visible red veins. It was unyieldingly white.

It was as if his skin was covered with a white paper sheet, hence the term "pale-faced." Like a ghost in a movie or a paper effigy, his appearance sent chills down one’s spine.

Any apocalyptic survivor who wasn’t blind knew that he was definitely a zombie!

However, Tang Ye knew this was Xu Haishui’s best effort, so he didn’t make it difficult for him. Instead, he mentioned his own doubts.

"How did you find out..."

Tang Ye pointed at Ah Fu, making his question clear.

Xu Haishui’s mouth split into a grin, revealing his blood-stained steel teeth. He said, "That’s a long story. I have a video I obtained from Maogang Village on the outskirts of the city. I killed several people there, and one of them claimed they were from Dragon Group."

"Dragon Group?" Tang Ye was taken aback on hearing this.

This thing really exists? Could those fools be so engrossed in reading novels? Even though this crossed his mind, Tang Ye didn’t say it out loud.

Some things may seem non-existent, but they were definitely real, and no one could prove otherwise.

In a post-apocalyptic world, Tang Ye felt that any development was plausible.

"Yes, the Dragon Group, but they were too weak, heh heh."

Talking about the Dragon Group, a strange smile crossed Xu Haishui’s face, which made one wonder what he did back then.

He led Tang Ye to the top floor of the first building, they entered a room where he placed a dusty box in front of Tang Ye.

"This is it. I found the answers to your questions here."

As Xu Haishui spoke, he tried to open the box. However, no matter how he manipulated it, the box didn’t react.

"Looks like it’s out of power. I’m sorry to disappoint you," Xu Haishui replied with an eerie expression.

"Then let’s not watch it here. Go back to my place where there is power."

"Alright."

The third day, by Zhiyang Lake.

Tang Ye stood on a large rock, watching the vast lake waiting for something to appear. After a while, two figures appeared on the surface of the lake, one big and one small - Ah Fu and Xu Haishui.

As soon as the two zombies reached the shore, Tang Ye immediately asked Xu Haishui, "Did you find it?"

Xu Haishui’s expression was peculiar, he replied, "Boss, are you sure there’s a dragon in there?"

Tang Ye simply nodded, not uttering a word. Though he and Xu Haishui could communicate telepathically, both found it a bit abnormal and so they chose to speak directly.

"Even if there were a dragon, there was absolutely nothing in there."
