I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 808 - 805: The Premise of Not Betraying

Chapter 808: Chapter 805: The Premise of Not Betraying

Although she said that, Su Sigui didn’t seem like the type of person who casually gave out nicknames. Rather, it seemed as though she knew what her counterpart would be called in the future.

"How did you know?" Hatred asked, puzzled.

"It doesn’t matter how I know. What I want to know now is, what will you do next?"

Hatred was silent for a moment and then said, "If I say I will always be loyal to you, would you believe me?"

Tang Ye smiled, sat down on a soft chair, and shook his head at him.

"I don’t believe it."

"Whether the chairman believes it or not, I will do so."

"Oh? And why is that?"

"The reborn me lives for a purpose, to kill those enemies. But after my revenge, I realized the road ahead was long, very long. During that time, I saw many things."

"And what did you see?"

"Dirty human nature."

"Dirty... human nature? What do you mean by dirty?"

"Selfish, hypocritical, brutal."

Tang Ye nodded. He didn’t fully agree with Hatred’s view. Human nature is shaped under certain social systems and historical conditions and one must recognize its ugliness, but that does not mean all human nature is bad.

It seemed Chen Chaoyang had been through many unbearable hardships and realities that made him start to despise human nature. Unlike Tang Ye, who, after becoming a zombie, could clearly feel the importance of human nature because it could bring him ideals and prevent him from becoming merely a bloodthirsty zombie.

However, Tang Ye didn’t contradict him, just nodded. Hatred’s strength right now was undeniably strong; he could be useful, and Tang Ye wouldn’t be so righteous that he would dismiss him just because of a few words.

"And then?"

"Compared to these things, I actually find zombies more adorable. They don’t deceive, lack hypocritical appearances, and don’t betray. Their exterior is just like their heart. Just like your goal, chairman, although this shouldn’t be what you must do, you will persist, and your goal is also what I wish to achieve. I want to make zombies a rightful creature in this world, not humans alone!"

Tang Ye frowned slightly; something about Hatred’s words felt awkward, as if something was off, but it seemed that his ultimate goal was indeed this.

"So it is this."

"Of course, like the zombies, I will help you achieve your goal, which is also my goal. If anyone dares to stand in our way, I can help you exterminate them all!"

"You saying this makes me feel much relieved." Tang Ye’s eyes flickered, thinking of something unknown when suddenly, he raised his hand, emitting an aura unintentionally or perhaps intentionally. Hatred’s face slightly changed.

"It seems, Chairman, you have become stronger."

"Yes, but let’s speak seriously. I don’t know if you’re aware, although the Peace Party is flourishing, and on the surface, the United District seems completely under the Peace Party’s control, the former forces of the Six Commissioners have splintered into forty-seven underground forces resisting the Peace Party. Dealing with some of these resistance forces is also a very troublesome matter. Now, tell me, how should we act to minimize trouble?"

After hearing this, Hatred thought for a moment, his eyes filled with intense killing intent: "Actually, we don’t need to think too much. As you said, the current Peace Party is the greatest force in the United District, holding the absolute initiative, meaning no single force can confront us alone. Moreover, Chairman, what you probably want is for those resistance forces to voluntarily submit, right?"

Tang Ye nodded noncommittally, but he didn’t expect Hatred to laugh and shake his head in a strange tone: "Chairman, that could be very dangerous. Zombies are not human; they can’t show loyalty like zombies. Humans are fickle. These commissioners’ subordinates who didn’t submit to us immediately show that they are ambitious, very ambitious. Even if they submit now, later, if the Peace Party shows signs of weakness, or if someone among them surpasses your strength, they will still betray. We can overlook their current resistance, but a broken cup, even repaired, still has cracks!"

"This world is not the pre-apocalyptic world, which you often say. This is an era dominated by our own strength; the strength of our punch determines how much we can possess."

"In my opinion, we should not spare any of the leaders of the resistance forces, they should all be executed to prevent future trouble!"

After Hatred finished speaking, Tang Ye burst into loud, ironic laughter.

"Hahaha! Haha! Well said! But since those people will betray me once they grow stronger in the future, what about you? Do you dare guarantee that you won’t betray me after your power surpasses mine? Or even, eradicate me completely?"

Tang Ye stood up from his chair and approached Hatred, his words sharp and piercing.

But Hatred’s expression remained unchanged, he calmly declared: "Impossible, I guarantee it! No matter how strong I become later, I will not betray you, Chairman, because our goals are the same, our interests too."

"That’s what you said." Tang Ye still stared intently at Hatred.

"But that does not mean I will never betray you."

Hatred’s next sentence made Tang Ye’s eyes narrow, and a blade made of flesh and blood appeared in his hand as a killing intent emanated from him.

"What do you mean?"

"I won’t betray you, but there is a condition."

"What condition?"

"That is, if one day, Chairman, you change your initial goal or prevent me from accomplishing my goal, or cease to persist, I will personally slaughter you!"

At that moment, Hatred’s tone also became cold, his gaze towards Tang Ye utterly fearless.

However, his words did not anger Tang Ye. Instead, because of what he said, the intense killing aura around Tang Ye suddenly dissipated.

If earlier Hatred had unconditionally declared his absolute loyalty to Tang Ye, it would have only made Tang Ye deeply wary of him because he knew that in this world, there’s no such thing as unexplained loyalty. However, Hatred’s conditional loyalty could be more trustworthy.

Tang Ye had never thought of giving up, and maybe, for now, he could only pursue this path. As for whether he might change his mind later, Tang Ye himself didn’t know, but for now, he would not change, at least not until he met her.

Because everything he did was to fulfill that person’s wish.

"This won’t happen. If what you say is true, then it’s good. At least someone can check me if my initial intentions change."
