Apocalypse: I Chose Apocalypse After My Sister Was Murdered - Chapter 18

Chapter 18: Taming The First Zombie

Jiang Feng walked on the streets in the dark night, looking at the moonlight and the outline of the buildings. His heart felt empty.

It was a feeling that he had not felt for a long time.

After the appearance of the zombies in Kerry City, almost no one dared to walk in the dark.

At night, it was much quieter than during the day. The slightest sound would be amplified and attract the zombies.

Even during the day, few people dared to walk in the dark streets, parking lots, or open the door of a house.

You never know where the zombies will rush out from.

Their black and yellow teeth could bite you at any moment.

Although the survivors had the antibody for the virus, it was just for the ordinary virus. The virus in zombies could have mutated.

One bite could turn one into a zombie.

Now, he was almost the same as a zombie. At least, he could blend in.

Except for those strange zombies who were territorial, the other zombies wouldn’t react to his presence.

Even…

It might be because of the higher level of pressure, but ordinary zombies would choose to avoid him when he got close.

Just like that, Jiang Feng took the long blade and walked through the horde of red-eyed zombies that were wandering under the moonlight.

It was as if he was walking on a lively food street surrounded by people enjoying the lovely night.

There were similarities and differences.

At the moment, there was only the smell of rotten meat in the air. There was no smoke or fire, no noisy crowd, only quiet zombie crowds.

Back then, he had wanted to bring his sister to the food street.

They would go to the mall to watch a movie and buy a dress.

They would go to the amusement park to ride on the Ferris wheel and the merry-go-round.

Even after Kerry City became a city of zombies, she had nothing.

Now that he thought about it, he realized how stupid he had been back then!

He really didn’t want his sister to die, even if she had to become a creature that was neither human nor zombie, like him.

The two of them could walk on the dark streets and play as they pleased.

No one would care about them. They could do whatever they wanted, unlike now, where he was alive but his sister was gone.

As he thought about it, Jiang Feng felt a burning sensation on his forehead.

It wasn’t a fever, but a seed seemed to be taking root and sprouting under the watering of anger.

Jiang Feng was not walking aimlessly on the streets.

After hearing from Lu Jinhong that he might be able to control zombies, he couldn’t wait to try.

It was only after he discovered the drone that he decided to act at night.

He had already tried to communicate with normal zombies, but it had been a long time since he last saw one. He couldn’t even communicate with them, let alone control them.

For this reason, he decided to find a stronger zombie.

As long as he could communicate with the other party, he might be able to further control it.

After his sensory had been upgraded, Jiang Feng could still sense his surroundings even if he was walking on the streets.

Unlike the zombies who had avoided him earlier, there was one zombie approaching him stealthily, as if it was going to attack.

This should be the kind of zombie that he was looking for. After a special mutation, it had intelligence and could communicate with simple brain waves.

Besides, the fact that the zombie had been quietly following him showed that there was a gap between their strength.

When he reached the corner, Jiang Feng just stood there, not moving.

After a while, the zombie finally couldn’t take it anymore and sped up.

Only then did Jiang Feng see the appearance of the zombie beside him. It was wearing red clothes and gave off the feeling that it was taking photos in the studio.

Compared to ordinary zombies, her fingers had mutated. They were slimmer and longer, twice the length of ordinary human fingers.

After Jiang Feng used the back of the long blade to block the attack, he could feel the hardness of the mutated fingers from the sound.

The moment the zombie’s movement was stopped, he threw a punch at its face.

The punch was very powerful and the long-fingered zombie was sent flying to the ground.

Before the zombie could stand up, Jiang Feng stabbed his long blade into the ground and tied it up with his fists and legs.

When it was being tied up, the long-fingered zombie was still making “gugu” sounds as it struggled. Jiang Feng had no choice but to stuff a piece of cloth into its mouth.

After everything was done, he carried the long-fingered zombie on the long blade and went back along the path he had just taken.

He didn’t expect that the first time he tied a woman up, it would be a female zombie.

Jiang Feng brought the zombie back to the underground parking lot of the City Center.

The traces of the battle during the day were still there, and the smell of rotting corpses was even stronger.

He tied the zombie to a pillar, leaned on the long blade, and stared at the zombie.

In the dark, two pairs of red eyes looked at each other.

Jiang Feng did not know how to control his brainwaves, nor did he know how to communicate.

The only beast taming method he knew of was to torture an eagle.

It was an ancient way of taming an eagle. After the hunter caught the eagle, he would light a candle and look into the eagle’s eyes.

The first step of taming the eagle would be completed when it couldn’t stand it anymore.

So, Jiang Feng also planned to use the same method to torture the long-fingered zombie.

The long-fingered zombie was tied to a pillar and was still struggling.

In front of it, Jiang Feng was motionless.

Just like that, time passed by.

He did not know how long it had been, but Jiang Feng felt something melting on his forehead. At that moment, he heard three words in his mind: “Let me go.”

Was this the language of zombies?

There were some similarities with the previous language, but there were some differences in the transmission of brainwaves.

At the very least, it was not something that could be deciphered by the current stage of cryptography. The communication of brain waves was more complicated than ordinary languages.

“Submit!”

“Or die!”

Jiang Feng looked at the long-fingered zombie and said coldly.

Speaking was just a habit of his. What he really communicated with was the electric waves emitted from his brain.

He only needed a subordinate, so if it didn’t submit, it would die.

The long-fingered zombie was already afraid. After the failed attack, she was at a loss about what had happened to her.

Now that she had received a response, she naturally nodded instinctively and chose to submit.

Jiang Feng then picked up the long blade and cut the rope tying the long-fingered zombie.

After doing all that, Jiang Feng turned around and left. The long-fingered zombie still had some confusion in her eyes as she followed him.

In the office.

After sleeping for a while, Lu Jinhong woke up after falling off her office chair.

She looked at the bright window and realized that it was already dawn.

After going through so much yesterday, she was physically and mentally exhausted. She had only just woken up after falling asleep on the chair.

After she woke up, Lu Jinhong first looked at the room.

Where was the girl on the sofa?

Lu Jinhong frowned as she noticed that the girl in the glass box had disappeared.

She didn’t think that Jiang Feng would bury the girl in the middle of the night. He had probably looked for the drop of formalin liquid because he wanted to keep her company.

So, did he leave?

Lu Jinhong even felt a little disappointed.

There were clearly so many questions that had yet to be answered, so how could he just leave her behind?

At this moment, the door opened with a creak.

Jiang Feng walked in.

“You didn’t leave?”

When Lu Jinhong saw Jiang Feng, she was pleasantly surprised.
