I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 451 - 448: Revealing the Identity of the Zombie King_1

Chapter 451: Chapter 448: Revealing the Identity of the Zombie King_1

Tang Ye’s right hand, once full and rosy, instantly transformed into a strong, ashen grey, zombie hand with muscular swellings. Its five diamond-shaped, keratinous fingers emanated an astonishing chill!

"What are you trying to do? Your hand... wait, your aura! Are you...?"

Her gaze traveled from his hand to his face. She watched as Tang Ye’s originally glossy black hair gradually turned white and then grew longer, draping over his shoulders. His charming, youthful human face morphed into a horrifying face of a zombie steeped in bizarre severity!

Li Henian’s body began to grow taller, and a thick black fog radiated from around him. His blackened eyes dilated until all the white was obscured, turning blood-red!

The black fog rolled crazily. Within a short span of time, the Li Henian in front of her had transformed into a terrifying figure from the video!

"Zombie King!"

With a scream, Liang Hanyang felt the zombie within her going berserk, wanting to come out but not daring to, curling up like a mouse faced with a cat!

A look of perpetual horror was etched on Liang Hanyang’s face. She had never imagined that she would run into exactly what she feared the most upon arriving at Lin City. She had feared encountering the Zombie King, capable of using magic. Yet fate had played such a cruel joke that she did run into him!

And this was a Zombie King who could disguise himself as a human. She suspected even machines would fail to detect his presence!

An intelligent zombie!

She didn’t even know what to think anymore. The fact that he could disguise himself as a human and even become the leader of a survivor’s base could only describe him as an intelligent zombie!

Humans’ worst fear was coming true. It didn’t matter how powerful the zombies became, humans wouldn’t mind, because zombies are thought of as a group of brainless life forms, lacking subjective consciousness. No matter how individual zombies may be strong and powerful, they are like whales in the sea to humans: with advancing technology, humans would one day triumph over them and regain their position at the top of Earth’s life pyramid!

However, the emergence of an intelligent zombie among them changes everything. If an intelligent zombie exists, humans will go the extra lengths to destroy it at all costs!

The birth of intelligent zombies represents the possibility that, in the future, they will have their civilization just like humans. When that time arrives, humans being dethroned will be inevitable!

There wouldn’t be any hope left!

Since the moment Tang Ye resumed his true form, Liang Hanyang’s fear of him shifted from an individual fear to a collective fear of all humankind!

"Yes, I am the Zombie King!"

"Why would you..."

"Enough, no more nonsense!" After transforming back into a zombie, Tang Ye’s human voice became a zombie’s hoarse, unpleasant tone, giving Liang Hanyang a shiver down her spine.

It was unbearable to hear!

His voice was like an old, groove-filled grindstone rubbing against another, hissing, making it feel as though her soul was about to explode!

"What are you trying to do?"

"Nothing major. I only need your absolute loyalty. If I’m guessing right, there’s a zombie in your body, isn’t it? Heh heh, it’s not a lowly zombie, and moreover... it’s afraid of me? How interesting."

Chortling weirdly, Tang Ye lifted his hand and black fog-enshrouded, flesh-like threads drilled out from the palm of his hand, transforming into a flesh ball covered in filaments. Liang Hanyang retched several times at the sight of the dripping slime. It was too disgusting!

Initially, upon seeing Li Henian, she thought he looked decent. But now, transformed into a Zombie, why was he doing such disgusting things?

"I’ve fallen out of love. No more love for him."

She had a bad premonition in her heart. Sure enough, in the next moment, Tang Ye spoke out the words that almost caused her to collapse.

"Swallow it."

Volitionally scratching his head, Tang Ye understood why the young girl was resisting. But he had no choice, the flesh and blood from his body always had traces of the anti-life substance, which all zombies had. He asked himself, did humans ever regard a clean zombie?

Compared to other zombies, Tang Ye found himself clean enough...

"If you don’t want to eat it, there’s another way. But you will have to undress..."

Before he finished his sentence, Liang Hanyang hastily stripped off half of her dress, turning her back towards him.

"If there’s anything you want to do, do it yourself," she said in a despondent tone. Tang Ye caught a hint of a sob in her voice, he scratched his head again, feeling guilty about what he was making this young girl go through.

In fact, Liang Hanyang knew she couldn’t escape what was coming. Rather than resisting, she would rather let Tang Ye get it over with.

Tang Ye didn’t waste any more words. He gently pressed a finger onto her bare back, creating a centimeter-long wound. He then stuffed the meatball into the wound, considering the matter resolved.

"It’s done." After speaking, Tang Ye turned his back to her, allowing Liang Hanyang to put her clothes back on.

After she had finished dressing, he turned around to face her and said: "This thing is now in your body, parasitizing on the zombie. If one day you betray me, the zombie will explode instantly! You and it are symbiotic; if it dies, you should know well what happens."

Liang Hanyang had no violent reactions. Instead, she stay silent and asked, "Do you think the ’I’ you see now is really me?"

"Huh?" Tang Ye froze, unsure of what she meant. But once he understood her meaning, he couldn’t help but chuckle.

"Could it be that you are the zombie?"

Liang Hanyang stayed silent, yet Tang Ye knew he had hit the nail on the head. Firstly, a Level 5 New Human, despite its enhanced intelligence, lacked experience due to its age compared to an average adult. The enhanced intelligence of a Level 5 New Human improves their learning speed at best.

Secondly, her attachment to Chen Chaoyang was suspicious. Even Yan Jie, the first person to have met her, had no idea of her true motives.

"It’s not a problem, I will tame the other ’you’ once it awakens," he said.

"You..."

Liang Hanyang was furious and desired to tear Tang Ye to shreds. But she didn’t exactly know how much more powerful he was than her. Attacking him would be seeking her own destruction; thus she refrained from acting rashly.

Transforming back to his human form, Tang Ye walked out the door with a smile. As he stepped out, he saw many eyes converging upon him, whispering amongst themselves. Their expressions were as if Tang Ye owed them something if he didn’t do anything to Liang Hanyang.

"What are you looking at? Stop staring!"

The sight infuriated him. He roared, forcing the surrounding people to disperse. Liang Hanyang, who walked out after him, glanced at him and distanced herself from him with a flushed face...

In the afternoon, Tang Ye, Ah Fu, and Chen Yanli set off with more than ten members of the Shiwuguan Base in a large pickup truck heading for the Qinshan Base.

Upon sighting the western gate of the Qinshan Base, Tang Ye’s group encountered countless newly deceased bodies. The deadly wounds suggested that they had fallen victim to compatriots or other individuals.

The faces of Tang Ye and his companions remained unchanged. On the other hand, the two New Humans and eight regular humans that had followed them furrowed their brows. The chaos at the Qinshan Base seemed to be worse than they had imagined. What was ludicrous was that they had excitedly barged in, believing that life within the survivor’s base would return to the pre-apocalypse normality where food and work would all be organized by the nation.

However, the emergence of New Humans broke the chains of such societal expectations.
