As they continued their journey the next day, Cody found Jeff unable to calm down. Jeff repeatedly adjusted his sitting position, and turning his head in various directions many times. The further they traveled, the worse Jeff’s condition became.

“I-I’m sorry, Cody.” Jeff’s breathing was getting heavier. “Maybe my mind couldn’t calm down because Paul’s house too traumatized me. And we getting closer to that place, I… I… Once again, I’m sorry.”

“It’s okay.” Cody answered with a smile, trying to make Jeff as comfortable as possible.

It makes sense, Jeff said that. However, Cody’s guts say something was wrong with this man.

Despite Jeff’s non-threatening behavior, Cody felt the need to be more watchful of his traveling companion.

Their journey continued, and when evening finally arrived, Jeff pointed to a large house in a luxurious residential area.

Cody stopped his car, and also Big Joe was behind them. He observed the house from a distance and found noth

    Cody woke up in the morning after sleeping for a while, but couldn’t find Jeff.“Jeff, where are you?” Cody rushed out of the house with the zombies.Before long, he heard a zombie growled from the house nearby. Cody moves there and finds Jeff doing something.“Don’t worry, you will be exquisite.” Jeff was cutting a zombie into pieces, and a very wide, creepy smile appeared on his face.“Jeff, are you crazy?” Cody’s question made Jeff wince. “Well, you are crazy, but…. Damn, I’m lost for words.”Jeff sighed. “That’s why you have to kill me. Have you found the right way?”Instead of answering, Cody shot Jeff in the head with a gun. Jeff tumbled with a hole in his head and wide eyes.Cody watched him for a few minutes. The bullet in Jeff’s head expelled itself, and the wound closed. He then got up.“Why do you do that?” Jeff sighed

    “That’s…. I don’t know how to respond to that,” Randy spoke with his mouth full of spaghetti.Cody just talked about Jeff from start to finish. All of them who were eating dinner at the dining table could only remain silent listening to Cody’s story, occasionally gasping when they heard something that made little sense.Helena grimaced. “Seems like you have no other choice, huh?”“Yeah, like it or not, I have to do that or Jeff could do something crazy again.” Cody continued to eat his food.Meanwhile, Gwen just remained silent and chewed slowly.“You’re brilliant, Cody.” Randy grimaced. His plate was empty. “You deserve to be my rival. How about tomorrow we fight….”“No.” Cody put the rest of his food in his mouth. “Why would I fight you without a logical goal? You are not threatening me, my friends, or this place.”Randy snort

    Cody and the others were in front of the small house. After listening to Randy’s explanation about the zombies, Cody rubbed his face with trembling hands.“Are their faces scarier than ordinary zombies?” Cody asked, his expression darkened. “I mean,... There are a lot of features on their faces that... Ah, I’m having a hard time explaining it.”“Yeah, something like that.” Randy frowned. “Do you know anything, Cody?”Cody looked at the three people one by one, then took a deep breath. “Actually…”He explained about the zombie tree, which produces lots of undead in its parts. He also explained how massive that thing was and how dangerous it would be if the zombies in that thing came off.“How many zombies are there?” Helena swallowed hard.Cody shrugged. “Maybe we will never know. “Maybe this tree has deep roots that reach the bottom of the earth.&rdquo

    The three special zombies spread out and ran in zigzags, making it even more difficult for Cody to shoot them. Then, a surprising event occurred. The leader zombie jumped high, and his body shot through the air like a rocket. It hit Big Joe hard, forcing him to fall with a loud rumble.Meanwhile, two other special zombies can attack Cody’s zombies fast. Their movements lacked the organization of true martial arts. Instead, they move like wild animals with punches and kicks.However, that doesn’t mean their movements aren’t precise and deadly.Big Joe had not yet fully stood up when the zombie leader tackled his leg hard, forcing him to fall again.“Sh*t!” All of it overwhelmed Cody. He couldn’t concentrate on just one zombie. It made him feel like he would lose, eventually.If only he could focus on just the leader zombie or those two special zombies, Cody was sure he would have a chance.“Randy!!! Can you hear

    Cody opens his system, intending to ‘restore’ this zombie’s consciousness. He didn’t know whether this being had a human mind, but he had never seen this zombie speak.However, he discovered he couldn’t use his awakener skill.“So, can you talk like us?” Cody asked.The zombie growled, then spoke in a tone like someone who had just learned to talk. “Yeah, I can talk.”“So, you came from that zombie tree, right?”“That’s right, I came from there. It was our mother who sent us in different directions.”Cody frowned, guessing that the ‘mother’ this zombie meant was Jane Harrison, someone who had the zombie tree role.“What did she send you guys for?” Helena also asked.The zombie growled again. “Our mother felt that the only thing that could free her was to defeat Zeno. However, she doesn’t know her fighting capa

    “Say it, Cody.” The liquified zombie had wrapped Randy’s body. “Are the experience points you get from that special zombie more than usual?”Cody didn’t answer.“It seems my guess was correct. The special tags mean something.” Randy chuckled while his battle gear was hardened. “Then, I will become strong faster!”Randy dashed forward and attacked Cody’s zombies. The sounds of their weapons clashing echoed. Every time one of Cody’s zombies falls because of Randy’s sword swing, Cody makes his other zombies attack.This made the stream of attacks on Randy never stop.“You really great at fighting, Cody!” Randy laughed. “I already knew it! You may not have powers like me, but you can make the best use of what you….”Randy didn’t have time to finish his words because a slap from Big Joe sent him flying. However, Randy can use his wings to maneuv

    Cody, now wearing the appearance of an old man with white hair, sat in his yard. Next to him was a little girl.“Why did you have to move, Mr. Wolfe?” The little girl pouted. She wouldn’t look at Cody.Cody chuckled. “I just wanted a change of scenery, Sasha. I’ve lived here for years. Maybe it’s time for me to go back to exploring the world.”“But I enjoy talking to you. Your stories are always interesting, even though sometimes I’m not sure if they’re true or not. You might make them up.”Cody laughed and stroked the little girl’s brown hair. “We can always video call each other.”“My mom said that face-to-face conversations are always better…” Sasha found her mother waving at her from the house next door.“I think it’s time for you to go home, Sasha.”Sasha got off the chair and held out her pinky finger to Cody. “But you promised to call me, right?”Cody intertwined his finger with the little girl’s and smiled again. “I promise.” After that, Sasha ran to her house while her mother

    After exchanging information about various types of diseases with his data about the special zombies, Cody went to work. He built a structure of microorganisms that could damage any type of body. He didn’t understand the body structure of beings in other dimensions, so he was on guard.But in the end, he couldn’t make something as small as bacteria. So, he preferred to make various organisms the size of dust that could release toxins from within themselves.The toxins were what would make those another dimension beings sick. Even so, Cody made sure they didn’t die. He felt he had to hold his moral high. He wasn’t certain that those beings really wanted to invade the earth. Who knows, they just wanted to do research or diplomacy.If the microorganisms multiplied and became deadly, they could wipe out the entire planet. Cody didn’t aspire to commit mass murders.But Cody and the government agreed that waiting for them to come wasn’t worth it. If it turned out that they wanted to destroy

    After that moment, whoever was in the other dimension did nothing to the spy device Cody had sent. He could only assume they didn’t know how to approach that thing yet.This was a time Cody couldn’t miss. He had to do something while that thing was still there. Because that was the only thing that allowed him to connect to the other world.If he was late, they would perform surgery or something, making the spy device unusable. He had sent some more of that thing, but he wasn’t sure if they would still keep it. They could kill them right away.Now, he was in a government room with the president, Tia and Luna as representatives of Zeno’s town, Jane from intelligence, Kevin who represented the navy, Helena from the senate, and various other government departments.They were having a secret meeting.“So, after hearing your explanation, I have come to one conclusion, Mr. Wolfe.” The president, a man with graying and thinning hair, spoke. “You are asking for more of our resources to build y

    Helena closed her eyes and took a deep breath. “Yes, I remember someone, but I forgot her name and who she is. She means a lot to me, but not in a romantic way. She’s….”“Your little sister.” Cody cut Helena off.Helena’s chin dropped. “But I’m an only child.”“I won’t explain it too long,” Cody continued. “But I will slowly restore your memory of five years ago, when all that happened.”The senator was about to say something, but he gulped and answered instead. “Okay. Just do it.”Cody made a special zombie in his house approach Helena, but without her knowing. However, Cody also made sure that individual did not get too close to the senator. The most important thing was that Cody made the special zombie signal Helena’s brain little by little.“Hey.” Helena frowned. “Why aren’t you doing anything…”Before she finished speaking, she gasped. Her eyes widened.“Do you remember that memory?” Cody asked.“We used to be friends?” Helena asked back. “And I used to be your right-hand woman….

    It turned out that even after quite a long time, Cody had received no news from the spy he sent to the portal. He still saw endless darkness.But that was bliss for him. He had created a system so that his special zombies would work automatically and cooperate with the government, the sea kingdom, or those from Zeno’s town. The special zombies would only provide updates via telepathy. That way, he could often be with Freya, while also looking for a way to free Nigel.And that went on for almost three months. Fall would soon be over, but everything was still the same.Cody wondered how long this peace would last.“If only my position was higher, I would protect you more than this, Cody.” Akira, who was now a major, sighed in his office chair. “Unfortunately, I can only make you invisible in this city. I can’t guarantee that in other cities.”Cody smiled. “That’s okay. I really appreciate it. Freya is also not someone who wants to always go on trips.”Akira was silent for a moment. “Hav

    Cody supervised Luna’s body reconstruction through a transparent wall connected to the operating room. They used various mechanical hands to build that woman’s body from the smallest parts.“What do you think, Cody?” Tia came and stood beside that man.“This is the most perfect way to build a body from scratch. I can indeed form a new body, but it still doesn’t fit Luna and her friends.” Cody commented. “They have fundamental differences compared to my special zombie.”“Well, but this method is so slow, while we are still pressed for time. There are still many former commander-in-chief candidates whose bodies we have to rebuild. We are still looking for a solution for that.” Tia sighed. “By the way, isn’t it time you dropped the special zombies’ call? They aren’t the living dead like the ones you met in that apocalypse world, right?”“I don’t know what to call them.” After saying that, Cody left the room to meet Randy, who was sitting outside.The former officer who was sitting on a w

    Like the previous battle, Cody prepared his troops on the beach after he provoked the giant dragon. But this time he put the sea king between them, in a fairly high place.At first Cody didn’t know if the remnant would come with the second provocation. However, after a few days, he witnessed that the thing was moving towards the surface of the earth with a greater number of troops.Cody felt he could handle them with troops that were also increased in number and a new strategy. Even so, he still asked the government military to stay ready to fight.As a result, the soldiers were on standby with their weapons. From various rifles, tanks, to fighter planes on warships, kilometers away from them.“Honestly, Cody.” The king took a deep breath on a cliff by the sea. “This might be the moment that makes me the most nervous in my entire life?”Cody guessed. “Because this is your first war on the surface of the earth?”“Well, that too.” The king rubbed his face. “But more than that, I’m fight

    Cody used a vehicle with an organic engine that had a higher speed than he modified his body to swim. Together with several troops, he explored deep waters, passing through caves and distant areas. Even to reach the promised place, he and his troops needed two days.Cody raised his eyebrows as he got out of his submarine. He met a muscular man escorted by several mermaids.“Hey, how are you, hero?” The man smiled at Cody.He didn’t have a beard for five years, and his face looked younger. However, from his facial features, Cody was sure that it was the king of the sea kingdom.“You look fresher, your majesty.” Cody shook his hand. He was still trying to confirm that the person in front of him was the king.“Just so you know. After the incident five years ago, for no apparent reason, my strength increased many times over. It also affected my appearance.” The king continued.“So, do you still remember the incident five years ago?” When Cody asked, the king’s aides exchanged glances in c

    The military base received some of the remnant’s body parts, and Cody used his special zombies to do the research.“So, you’re saying that what you’re going to do is just a temporary solution to fix Luna and the others’ condition?” Randy asked Cody using a video call.Cody nodded while holding his phone, looking at Randy’s face from the screen. “But don’t worry. I can replicate Zeno’s cells from these samples, so we won’t lose the serum to maintain their condition. Unfortunately, like I said earlier, it won’t be permanent. They’ll probably have to use the serum every certain period and the results won’t be optimal. But I’m sure they’ll still survive.”“Well, at least Luna and the others won’t die and suffer like this,” Randy sighed. “So, how are you? Have you met Freya yet?”Cody shrugged. “I’m still busy with this. But I always try to contact Freya when I have time.”“I hope you can come home to her from time to time.” Randy said. “It’s not just for her, but I’m more thinking about y
