Apocalypse Meltdown

Chapter 279: Ready to Fight

Chu Han had long seen through Zhu Mingzhi, a 15-year-old child, lies. To the current him, a seemingly 20-year-old college student, but with the accumulated knowledge of two lifetimes, it was like a child's play to understand Zhu Mingzhi's ploy, but he was in an urgent need to know if his parents were alive or dead and where to find them. 

He looked at the supermarket again and then pulled the tri-edge bayonet. "You've completed your mission, congratulations!" Chu Han said and struck at Zhu Mingzhi's neck with the bayonet.

Blood gushed out of Zhu Mingzhi's body, and his body slammed on the ground, convulsing violently. Chu Han had destroyed his throat, and he could say nothing. Fear and confusion appeared on Zhu Mingzhi's face while he was bleeding as he could not understand why Chu Han had attacked him so suddenly. What gave him away? His taunting behavior? Impossible! His leader had assured him that Chu Han would not kill other for such trifling matters.

Unfortunately, Zhu Mingzhi stayed ignorant of his cause of death until the very bitter end. Right before he died on his own pool of blood, his expression was that of unwillingness and despair.

Li Yi and Wei An, who was standing behind, were astonished. They didn't know why Chu Han had killed the boy, but they were quite scared. They did not know what was wrong with Zhu Mingzhi but Chu Han's determination had truly shocked them.

Wei An's body trembled slightly and clenched her clothes as hints of doubt flooded her mind. Li Yi grabbed Wei An's hand, which astonished her greatly. When she looked at Li Yi's arm, she noticed a faint scar on it, and her body trembled even more and she felt guilty for doubting Chu Han.

When everyone had thought that a zombie had scarred Li Yi before boarding the boat, Chu Han had been the only one who believed that Li Yi had not been infected. Everyone had been thinking otherwise, but in the end, everything was as Chu Han had said.

Looking at the scar, Wei An remembered Old doctor they met on the boat.Wang Shixiong's words, "Seeing is not believing, but believing in Chu Han is right." Wei An felt relieved, and she nodded at Li Yi fiercely.

Li Yi loosened his grip on Wei An's hand. He had almost suspected Chu Han's motives, but his determination to follow Chu Han would not be shaken, especially after looking at his scar.

Chu Han's way of telling them who was friend or foe proven by facts and actions, so all they needed to do was to follow his lead. They should not second doubt him!

Chu Hanjolted his hand and the blood on the bayonet fell to the ground before he put it back in its sheath. At the same time, a giant axe appeared in his hand, but he didn't explain about the dimensional space's existence. Li Yi and Wei An's loyalty had already reached 90%, so he was not afraid that they would betray him. Although he did not know why their loyalty had increased to such an extent, it was still a piece of good news. 

The moment Chu Han killed Zhu Mingzhi, many zombies dashed out of the supermarket, but they refrained from attacking him. They didn't even roar and just surrounded them within a certain range. Meanwhile, they had ugly grins on their faces while disgusting black saliva fell off their mouths. They were hungry and wanted to devour them as fast as possible, but they didn't take action. It was as if the phase-1 zombies were waiting to receive an order.

Li Yi and Wei An noticed the situation's peculiarity, and they were dumbfounded. They had yet to forget the phase-3 zombie that was dressed like a human the previous night, so how could they not be astonished when such a group of zombies was behaving like humans?

They also noticed that the zombies were hungry and eager to devour them, but they tried hard to suppress their urges. They seemed to be under someone's control, waiting for the signal to attack.

Li Yi and Wei An were scared sh*tless. Who could control a group of zombies? Not only were the zombies before them phase-1 but also there were hundreds of them. Were there a species that could control zombies? What was it? A much stronger zombie or humans?

How many zombies were in the city? Thousands or millions? How could humans survive if someone were to control a vast number of zombies!?

"Brother Chu Han?" Wei An had a hard time speaking as she was scared to the point she could feel cold sweat all over her body.

Chu Han looked at the hundreds of zombie group out of the circle. His voice was calm with a hint of tyranny mixed within, "Can you get rid of these zombies?'

"Yes!"

"Of course!"

Li Yi and Wei An said at the same time without any hesitation. Chu Han was already prepared for a bloody battle. If they could not get rid of a few zombies, then they should stop following him.

"Can I leave them to you?" Leaving those words, Chu Han waved the Xiuluo axe-

'Bang!'

The axe struck at the supermarket's gate!

'Roar!'

The group of zombies started attacking, and more zombies surged into the street. Li Yi and Wei An pulled their weapons simultaneously, one held a machete and the other an axe respectively, and stayed back to back.

The moment Chu Han destroyed the supermarket's door, his speed skyrocketed. One could only see his shadow on the ground as he was raising his hand to cut in every direction unpredictably. 

Black blood surged out ceaselessly in every direction until red blood mixed in the dark river of blood too. The red blood belonged to a phase-1 evolutionary! Chu Han did not care or check who or what he killed. His only objective was to slaughter everything standing in his path with a single strike.

When he entered the deepest part of the supermarket, Chu Han's aura reached its peak. He could reach so deep relying on his phase-2 speed. If one were to look behind him, they could see a path of blood and corpses as if it had come straight from Hell.

In the deepest part of the supermarket, a black-robed man was sitting on an executive chair with a bloody heart in his hand. He sucked it dry while looking at Chu Han coldly. There were also 10 phase-2 zombies beside him and the phase-3 evolutionary he had met the previous night.

Last but not least, there was a huge cage near them with12 humans inside.
