I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 331 - 330: Transfer_1

Chapter 331: Chapter 330: Transfer_1

After Bai Huipeng returned triumphant, Tang Ye let Ruan Chao’en and Xu Changchi begin to reorganize these people, trying to change their mindset, keep them together with the original people.

Bai Huipeng also told Tang Ye everything he had encountered, including many details.

After hearing everything Bai Huipeng had said, Tang Ye’s brow slightly furrowed. After letting him leave, he began to ponder alone.

He found his guess was right, humans were indeed very afraid of zombies, something everyone had. Killing zombies seemed simple, but it was truly difficult.

Unless they used specific terrains or set traps in advance, killing zombies could only be done one by one. But are there so many zombies for you to kill?

Additionally, killing ordinary zombies was meaningless, and ordinary people could not defeat evolved zombies. Even if they happened to kill one, the Evolution Crystal from its brain could not be used in some survivor settlements. It could only be traded for food in some bases.

Simply put, killing zombies was a Pitfall for people, more harm than good. It was not at all worth risking one’s life for. This led to many people being unwilling to venture out for supplies. If they encountered zombies while out, they avoided them if possible, tried to retreat if not, and only chose to fight if they had no other choice.

People feared and disliked zombies, but that didn’t mean they feared their own kind! When fighting other survivors, they were all excited. They didn’t have the same mindset as when fighting zombies.

As for this, Tang Ye had mixed feelings. He was a bit satisfied but also somewhat saddened though overall, he was more satisfied. The harm zombies caused to people was great, but that didn’t really pertain to him.

To Tang Ye, zombies were a very friendly species. The current humans, to him, had no loyalty. As evidenced by Song Wuli’s experience, he was more certain that loyalty was just a chip insufficient for betrayal.

Zombies were different; they were beautiful to Tang Ye. There was no deception or strife, no concept of betrayal or not, of course, except for some zombies like him who retained human consciousness.

But this issue, Tang Ye also didn’t know if it would occur. Presumably, Xu Haishui was one, but his form of retaining memory was different from Tang Ye’s.

After bringing in the stored food from Qukai Primary School, the total food storage in the settlement was now enough for everyone here to live for half a year. There was no need to worry about food for now.

Still, thinking about the future, Tang Ye didn’t want the current situation here to remain. It had to develop, which meant an increase in the number of people. The more people, the more resources would be consumed. Tang Ye had already thought about this.

Before the Apocalypse, Tang Ye was a nobody. A usual day consisted of getting up, going to work, returning home, playing on his phone for a while, and then going to sleep. Every day was like a repeat, with no talents to speak of.

Of course, not including the great power he obtained in the Apocalypse.

If he hadn’t turned into a zombie, Tang Ye would have probably starved to death a long time ago, like the other survivors, and been dominated by the strong.

Expanding the force here faced many difficulties. Anytime Tang Ye thought about future troubles, he felt like maybe he should just let everything go and live leisurely like a simple zombie. But on second thought, he couldn’t bear to. After all, he had put his heart and effort into this place, and it was a bit of power he had in human society.

This was very contradictory. Tang Ye simply didn’t know how to choose, especially if he gave up, he didn’t know how to face Ning Yu’er’s wishes.

Xu Haishui was sitting on a small stool next to him, sticking various colors of wire onto the body of a zombie named Electric Screw. A small lightbulb not far away was intermittently lighting up and going out.

Tang Ye glanced at the weak electric arc on Electric Screw’s body, then turned to Xu Haishui and said, "Do you think, if I evolve to a higher level, I can change my appearance at will?"

Hearing Tang Ye speak, Xu Haishui paused his hand movements. His yellow hair, exposed outside his hat, stood on end, clearly electrified.

"I don’t know about that, but you can try. Just like your current state."

Hee hee~

After laughing weirdly twice, Tang Ye didn’t say anything more and just stared at the Evolution Crystal Core on the table.

At this moment, Xu Haishui, who seemed to realize he couldn’t fiddle with anything useful, stood up. He picked up a dead zombie bug from the ground and threw it into his mouth, chewed twice, then sat down on the sofa in front of Tang Ye.

"Maybe I have a solution. Although I don’t know why you’re doing this, but this way, it’s really..."

Xu Haishui paused, not finishing his sentence.

Tang Ye guessed what he was about to say, but still asked, "Really what?"

"Really hypocritical, a bit like playing the saint after being a b*tch. This action of yours has no meaning. Once these people leave, they will soon starve to death! I don’t understand."

"We’ve discussed this issue many times, just like I can’t understand why you still have emotions."

"Well... Oh, nevermind." Xu Haishui shrugged, and anytime this topic came up, the two of them would stall.

"Have you heard the story of the snake and the wolf?" Tang Ye asked.

"I’ve heard of the farmer and the snake, but snake and wolf... Sorry, I’ve never heard of it. Boss, you’re not planning to make up a story to trick me, are you?"

Tang Ye simply nodded, saying, "When the snake and wolf meet, both sides are no good, but the snake can’t beat the wolf."

Xu Haishui’s eyelid twitched, immediately understanding Tang Ye’s meaning: "Alright, both are shady characters, but your meaning, Boss, should be that we can’t think from the same perspective."

"Right, it’s like the angel and the devil. But there’s no angel between us."

"Of course."

Xu Haishui scratched his head, laughed. Could there be angels between two zombies?

One had a mass killing spree in the base, the other had slaughtered an unknown number of survivors in the hospital. When they got together, it was hard to say who was unlucky. They just wanted different things and saw things from different perspectives.

Tang Ye didn’t want to say much more, and redirected the topic back to Xu Haishui’s direct method.

"Okay, tell me your idea. I might make you my adviser."

Hearing these words, Xu Haishui cleared his mind of distracting thoughts and organized his language. He said, "Of course, Boss, you want to strengthen the power here. Many problems are simple for our identity. Weapons are naturally easy to manage, leaving the difficulties for the humans, but the main issue in the future will be food!"

"Food source is also easy to manage. We can plant, but here, the land for cultivation is too small. Even if we move the soil, it’s too petty for the many people in the future. I believe your goal, Boss, isn’t just a thousand or so people, right?"

"Hmm." Tang Ye nodded, confirming that what Xu Haishui said was correct.

"Hehe, since that’s the case, we can’t supply enough here continuously."

"You mean, we should move to another place and relocate all the people here?"

"Yes! That’s exactly what I’m saying!"
