One day passed after Cody’s arrival in the colony. He pretended to be patrolling there by going around the colony area.
The man paused upon finding the territory’s expansion. Some people are building a protective wall outside the colony, but still connected to the main wall. Furthermore, he observed a much greater number of people compared to his previous visit.“I hope this peace will last for a long time.” Shawn, who accompanied Cody, took a deep breath. “I don’t want to encounter those strange zombie attacks or people suddenly becoming zombies again. Enough is enough. I’m tired and afraid.”“Yeah, even before the zombie outbreak, we have always wanted peace. It’s actually the same as those who live during war. It’s just that this time the entire world is experiencing it.” After saying that, Cody continued his steps.They both entered an emergency hospital for the colony. Shawn guided CodyThey continued walking until they finally arrived at an outdoor volleyball court in the colony. Several of Akira’s personal guards were some distance from them, watching. This made Cody feel Akira was no longer an ordinary person. “I want you to be here for a few more days, Cody.” Akira spoke while his back was to him. “This is to ensure that woman doesn’t create new zombies. If she still does it or does more, I ask for your help.” Cody shrugged. “No problem. But I feel you brought me here to talk about more than that, right?” “Did you know that there are strange zombies that differ from usual? They once attacked us. Have they attacked you, too?” Cody knew Akira was referring to Jane’s zombies. “I know that, and I even have a cooperative relationship with them. Don’t worry, I’ve asked them not to attack you.” Cody was telling the truth. Akira turned around and raised an eyebrow. “What? What did you say?” “Trust me Akira. We can never b
Cody experienced burnout, but he needed to address this problem right away. It’s uncertain that this new zombie tree will be like Jane, which won’t kill Cody and his friends.It could be more aggressive and could cause major havoc.Cody drives his car with one of Jane’s zombies as a guide. Several other Jane’s zombies also ran behind the car.They were ready to fight.“Stop here.” The zombie gave an order.Cody stops the car, discovering a series of organic roots entangling the buildings. However, this time, he didn’t see an enormous tree like Jane’s.“They have spread much further than last we checked.” The zombie hissed.“You said you guys would die if you got too close to that part of the tree, huh?” Cody found several rotting corpses of Jane’s zombies in the root area. “That’s why Jane asked for my help?”“As usual, mother will provide ade
Valerie’s zombie moves again, and its mother raises her head. The woman laughed and the wounds on her body released the bullets lodged in her body.“You think you can beat me that easily!?” Valerie keeps laughing. “I’ve defeated other system users many times! No one has ever come close to defeating me!”Cody tried to stay calm and assess the situation. One fact remains. Valerie was still only controlling one zombie.The tentacled zombie still entangled and attacked Cody’s zombie many times. Then, Cody used his liquify skill again, making the zombie melt.“What are you doing!?” Valerie gasped, and Cody didn’t know if she meant it.He just needs to focus on getting all of this done. He controlled the zombies, which were still in liquid form in various directions to confuse the tentacled zombies.Then, as they solidify, tentacled zombies attack them. However, there were only two of them.Anot
Once he arrived at the farm, Cody found traces of the fight as burned parts of the ground. No charred zombie corpses could be found in that location, though. Maybe Helena and Gwen, or Jane’s zombies, have cleaned it up.Fortunately, their small house was still intact without the slightest damage. But that doesn’t mean Cody could just relax. He jumped from the car and rushed in.“Oh, Cody.” Gwen smiled weakly at that man. “Welcome back.”“Are you okay?” Cody asked her, looking her body up and down. “I heard from one of Jane’s zombies. You guys got attacked by zombies that can breathe fire, right?”Gwen’s smile widened, but Cody could see hints of sadness on her face.“Well, I’m fine, but I can’t say the same for my sister.” Gwen was still smiling.“Where is she?” Cody asked and Gwen led him to a room.“Hi, Champ.” Helena greeted wh
Cody looked at the pile of zombie corpses between the trees. They were Jane’s reward after Cody beat Valerie.Cody barely managed to level up two levels, and he chose two skills.[Zombie awakener Lv2: You can restore the consciousness of a zombie. Can only be done twice per day][Zombie torturer: You can inflict extreme pain on one zombie]Will just one level of torturer skill be enough? Does he need to raise it once more? Maybe Cody won’t know until rebels emerge in his community he would build.He couldn’t bear to try it on the reawakened zombies. To him, they had returned to being human.If he used it on Jane’s special zombies, Cody wasn’t sure it would be effective as an experiment. They were never ordinary people, after all.In fact, Cody is still not sure whether his decision to build a community was the right one.But that was all he could think about for now. He hasn’t found another s
Cody headed in the direction pointed by the zombie, then hid behind a tree and used binoculars to check the camp in question.He found a few tents with several zombies surrounding them to guard. Five people doing activities around the tent.“Why didn’t your mother do something about them and instead tell us?” Cody asked the special zombie who was accompanying him.“Mother wants you to assess the situation because you are the one who is closer.” The zombie explained. “Maybe you want to collaborate with them or do something else.”Maybe Jane still wants to maintain Cody’s mood in their collaboration, even though the zombie tree has much greater power.“I will talk to them.” Cody said. “But I wouldn’t do it directly. Can you inform your mother? Ask if I can possess your body? I can’t do that to my zombies. I need them.”“Are you able to possess the zombies controlled
“Can’t we just persuade them to join?” Gwen held back her tears after hearing Cody’s story about Eddy’s group.Meanwhile, Helena closed her eyes. “No comment.”“I don’t know if we can survive if they attack.” Cody’s lips trembled. “They have a lot of troops and I don’t know their strategy yet. I won’t take the chance. We must attack first, or we will die.”Even though he hates it, Cody admits that over time, he has become similar to Akira. He will do everything he can to defend his home and protect those closest to him.“I always say that your guts are always right, Cody.” A single tear fell from Gwen’s eye. “I guess I just haven’t gotten used to the killings yet.”“I know that.” A long sigh escaped Cody’s mouth. “This time I will not justify my actions any more. If you think it’s wrong, so be i
“Our mother said she agreed not to send her child here for a while.” The zombie who accompanied Cody raided Eddy’s camp explained in the morning. “She understands your mind may be exhausted.”Cody sighed. “Thanks, I appreciate it.”Helena, having just left the house, approached the zombies tied up outside the room. “So many zombies.”“There are thirty-nine in total. Some of them died because of the fighting. Their friends’ fire burned some of them, and then there are some other incidents.” Cody approached that woman.“You will return all of their consciousnesses?” Helena noticed they had no legs.“I do not know yet.”Helena narrowed her eyes at the three zombies with many legs attached. “You kept their legs alive even though they were separated from their bodies?”Cody shrugged. “Yeah, it’s ridiculous, but I think it’s the m
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
