After the zombie-filled house incident, Cody had trouble sleeping. He stepped outside the apartment for fresh air, despite the low visibility because of lack of light..
“Can’t sleep, Cody?” Gwen approached that man.Cody glanced at the blonde-haired woman. “You, too?”“Yeah, I’ve been like this for a few days since joining this place.” Gwen shrugged. “How about you? Is it because tomorrow you fight that giant zombie?”Cody sighed and massaged his forehead. “Yeah, maybe that’s one reason, but there’s another…. Sorry, but I can’t tell you.”“It’s okay.” Gwen smiled.Cody then looked at that woman again. “I don’t think I can continue to stay in this place. After defeating the twins, I’ll leave Gwen. Maybe I’ll go back to Norris Farm and stay there.”At least for a while. He still intends to become strong in oCody rolled out of the way and Ezra’s body hit the ground hard.“You have killed Eden! Die!” Ezra had only half gotten up and Cody hit him on the head.Brawl erupted. Their body movements destroyed the surrounding buildings.Cody knows. He couldn’t do this for long. Maybe their stamina was equal, but Ezra was more experienced using that giant body. Cody couldn’t afford to lose any more time.So, Cody tried to hit several parts of Ezra’s body, and he noticed Ezra was too protective in the chest area.Most likely, the real Ezra’s body is there. Cody held Ezra’s body back. Then he controlled one zombie to jump from his giant body.Yes, Cody’s actual goal is not to defeat Ezra’s giant body, but to open this opening.One of Cody’s zombies penetrates the chest of Ezra’s giant body with a chainsaw. It turns out that there are cavities in the giant’s body. Despite this, Cody must
Cody could only see pitch black. He tried to speak. “Is that you, Zeno?”“Yeah.” Zeno giggled, but like before, that being was invisible. “Are you okay…. Well, that’s a stupid question. It’s clear you’re not okay.”Despite the dream-like feeling, anger surged within Cody. “What do you want for me?”“I just want to visit my potential opponent.” Zeno continued. “Your performance was amazing. The twins are strong candidates to fight me. But you defeated them, even though you were barely past level 10!”“I don’t need your praise.” Cody snorted. “You said you didn’t choose your opponent’s candidate carelessly? Why did you choose cruel people like them?”Zeno laughed. “You ask something like that!? It’s clear that I chose candidates based on their cruelty! Do you feel you are not cruel?”“That&rsquo
Cody asked Shawn to bring him a chicken. Shawn agrees, and Cody makes one of his zombies bite the animal.Now, he possesses the chicken and comes to the house where Gwen was being held. Cody found two large men standing guard there.Igor, a rebel who Akira killed, used to be their former boss. This makes things so much easier for Cody. This makes things so much easier for Cody.They did this because they were afraid of getting the same fate as Igor. They might still hold resentment towards Akira.Not that Cody thought they deserved to die. It’s just that, chances are, they would do the same thing as Igor.Cody made the possessed chicken walk slowly towards them, who were sitting between the small tables and playing chess. They looked bored and sleepy.When Cody got close to them, he pecked one of them on the leg, making him flinch and scream. “What’s this!?”In a sudden move, Cody pecked the man and fled. They didn’t r
They took their own supplies from the house where they were hiding before joining Akira’s community. After that, they took another path which differed from before because of the many ruins from buildings blocking the road.Some ruins were too high for the giant zombie to remove. It was formed from three tall buildings stacked together.“I’m still thinking about Shawn and Emily,” Gwen muttered as she got the chance to drive the next day. “Hope they’re okay.”“Yeah, they’re good people,” Cody sighed. “Shawn even gave us crop seeds, even though doing so was dangerous.”Gwen smiled at the young man. “That’s because he appreciates what you do.”The car battery is dead, so the zombies must push it. Only three zombies did it, including Helena, because Cody had to control the giant zombie.Cody finds it difficult doing it for a long time. He still struggled with such an en
“Jane Harrison?” Cody called her.He was wearing a zombie body, but he still felt uncomfortable.“Ye…. Yeah, it’s me…” The woman looked like she was crying.Cody continued. “What exactly is this? What is….”“Please, let me go! I can not take it anymore! This is too painful! I don’t want to be a so-called system user!” Jane cried. “I knew nothing and suddenly these roots grew out of my body!”Cody felt Jane wasn’t pretending. She really looked miserable.“Has Zeno contacted you yet?” Cody asked.Jane’s tears flowed more and more. “Yes, he said my job was to give birth to zombie children who other system users might use.” Her voice sounded like a growl of pain. “Please, I can explain everything to you when you let me go. Please, hurry. I can not stand it anymore.”This is a big dilemma for Cody. Despite her
Their journey continues. The next day, they passed a big road with abandoned cars. Occasionally, they encountered some zombies.“Well, at least I’m happy that Emily met her father.” Cody, who was driving the vehicle, muttered.Gwen just remained silent while looking down. Cody had been trying to talk to her, but she didn’t respond. Even if she responded, her answer was short.Cody sighed. “Please, tell me what’s wrong…. Oh…”He found a giant billboard in front of a stadium. It shows Gwen singing with backup dancers. Furthermore, the billboard featured the event’s title, “Promise Tour,” and the date.Passing that road made her sad, as it meant passing the stadium. That event never happened.Gwen couldn’t take it anymore. She sobbed. Cody waited for her to calm down before asking. “Do you actually still want to sing?”“It seems so.” Gwen put on a b
After several more days of travel, they finally arrived at Norris Farm. However, before Cody had driven his car far into that place, he stopped.“What’s wrong, Cody?” Gwen gulped, seeing the change in Cody’s facial expression, which became more serious.Cody discovered that his system scan was taking too long. “Please, wait, Gwen.”After waiting, his system menu displayed 128 zombies. Due to the ranch’s uneven terrain, he couldn’t spot the moving corpses yet.“Let’s move away first.” Cody turned the car around. “There are a lot of zombies over there. I’ll go check them out.”Gwen gasped. “Is this the same as back then? When we were at that house or with the zombies surrounding the hotel, Mark was staying in?”“Or maybe a system-user controls them,” Cody shrugged. “We don’t know.”After they were some distance f
Cody then beats John, and Gwen gets in his way.“Enough, Cody! Enough!” The blonde woman held Cody’s hand. “He’s just scared!”John’s face had a few bruises, but he was still babbling. “See? You are evil. You beat innocent people.”Despite his annoyance, Cody chose not to continue beating that man. He controlled one of his zombies to approach John.John tried to crawl away, but the zombie grabbed his body and brought its mouth closer to his neck.“Shut up or I’ll make him bite your neck! You don’t want to become a zombie, do you!?” Seeing John finally quiet as he closed his eyes in tears, Cody sighed and continued. “Please, listen to me first.”John stared at Cody and Gwen with a look full of disgust.“Listen. We can share this place. I will not reduce your resources. In fact, we will increase them. We have supplies of food and crop seeds.” The you
