Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me-Chapter 93: Strange Zombies

"Let's be careful!" Elijah cautioned. "Mm-hmm," Daisy nodded earnestly.

They continued to climb upwards.

By the time they reached the eighth floor, the scene became even more gruesome.

The walls were splattered with blood, the tiles on the floor stained a dark red, forming a thick layer of dried marks.

Limbs and arms were haphazardly strewn about, with not a single intact body in sight.

Even with Elijah's experience and Daisy's sturdy nerves, the sight resembled hell, causing their faces to pale.

Moreover, the grim scene wasn't something that had formed overnight.

Elijah noticed that some of the bloodstains hadn't completely dried, indicating that the mutated zombie had been lurking nearby, hunting down other zombies for food.

Braving the thick layer of bloodstains, the two pressed on, searching for the office Fiona had mentioned. Soon, they halted in front of a door with a sign reading "Chairman's Office."

"This is it!" Elijah observed cautiously, scanning the surroundings. He then gently pushed the door open.

Inside was a very spacious office, with a large desk and bookshelves filled with books. However, the office was empty at the moment.

The two entered, immediately closing the door behind them.

Elijah surveyed the room, confirming that there were neither people nor zombies present, before approaching the desk.

Apart from the computer, office supplies, and a few ornaments, there was also a photo frame displaying Fiona's smiling face.

"This is the place, but Fiona's father isn't here. There are no traces of blood or signs of struggle either..." Elijah remarked.

"Elijah, look!" Daisy pointed to a suit jacket hanging on a coat rack in the corner of the room. "This isn't good..."

If Fiona's father was here during the outbreak and wasn't in the office, it could be dangerous.

"Let's take it and check the conference room!" Elijah suggested.

He placed the suit jacket in his backpack, and they left the room, heading back the way they came.

They had seen the conference room when they arrived, so they headed straight there.

The door was wide open, and inside, chairs were overturned, bloodstains everywhere, and even two highly decomposed bodies.

They seemed to have been bitten to death during the outbreak, too mutilated to become zombies.

Elijah examined them carefully, but none were Fiona's father. While their appearance made it hard to tell, Fiona had shown him a photo of her father wearing a luxurious watch.

"Oh! Elijah, isn't this the watch?" Daisy exclaimed suddenly.

Elijah hurried over and found a severed arm on the floor, the watch on it soaked in blood. He compared it to the photo Fiona had sent.

Though covered in bloodstains, it was indeed the same watch.

"It seems like this is it," Elijah sighed. The mutated zombie had torn its victims apart, leaving no other parts to be found. It wouldn't be appropriate to bring back just this severed arm.

"Let's use this watch instead," Elijah decided, removing the watch from the discarded arm. He wiped it with a tissue to remove excess blood, then placed it in the bag along with the suit.

"Let's go," he said. As they retraced their steps, Elijah breathed a sigh of relief.

It was good they hadn't encountered the mutated zombie; dealing with an unknown ability like that would have been troublesome.

However, his optimism lasted only a few seconds. Just as they descended to the sixth floor, they came face to face with a bizarre zombie floating in the air.

Elijah grabbed Daisy, and they both froze in place, not daring to move recklessly.

The zombie in front of them was exceedingly strange.

Its body was extremely short, resembling that of a four or five-year-old child, yet its face was distinctly adult, with a disproportionately large head, making it look like a watermelon placed on a stick.

It was awkward to look at, to say the least.

What's more, its entire body hovered about 10 centimeters above the ground, drifting into the corridor from the office area on the sixth floor just as Elijah and Daisy were descending.

"What kind of strange zombie is this? Strange ability?"

Elijah, who had seen a lot in his past life, hadn't encountered anything like this before.

He didn't dare to act rashly, silently observing.

The bizarre zombie didn't notice Elijah and Daisy.

It floated to the middle of the corridor, changed direction, and drifted downstairs.

Elijah and Daisy breathed a sigh of relief.

However, they failed to notice a blood-red, glass-like spherical object, similar to an eyeball, protruding from the corner of the door frame where the bizarre zombie had just floated out.

Behind this sphere was a thin thread supporting it in mid-air.

As soon as it appeared, it aimed directly at Elijah and Daisy's direction.

Soon, another one emerged, then two, three... In total, five bizarre spherical objects floated out along the door frame, all turning towards Elijah, staring at them intently.

A chill ran through Elijah's heart; this was a dangerous omen.

He cautiously surveyed his surroundings and spotted the five bizarre spherical objects on the sixth-floor door frame, causing goosebumps to form all over his body.

"Damn!" he couldn't help but curse aloud. It was incredibly frightening.

The five floating bizarre eyeballs were, in fact, just that—eyeballs!

And the thin threads behind them were black-red blood vessels.

Anyone being stared at by these five strange eyeballs would feel their scalp tingle.

Elijah realized that he and Daisy had been exposed.

These eyeballs obviously had a perception ability similar to that of the mutated female zombie.

"There's another mutated zombie here!" Elijah reminded Daisy.

Daisy was initially puzzled by Elijah's sudden shout, which startled her.

But when she saw the five floating eyeballs, she immediately felt nauseous and covered in goosebumps.

She couldn't stand such densely packed things.

"This is too disgusting!" Daisy drew her knife, ready to strike at the eyeballs.

"Be careful!" Elijah didn't stop her because he saw the floating zombie they encountered downstairs had drifted back up. They had to act quickly.

He swiftly switched to Lily's ability. His muscles trembled, and his bones creaked. Gripping the spear tightly, he leaped into the air from a higher vantage point.

With the spear aimed at the floating zombie's head, he thrust it forward with all his might.

"Die!"

The spear pierced through the zombie's head, barely encountering any resistance. The resistance was minuscule compared to Elijah's strength, almost negligible.

It was like popping a bubble with a spear.

However, even this slight resistance bought the zombie some time. Its body floated slightly upward, dodging the most lethal part of the attack.

The spear passed through its mouth, carrying the zombie's body with its immense inertia.

With a loud "bang," it crashed into the wall, the spear deeply embedded in the wall. The zombie's mouth was also torn open by the spear, leaving a huge gash.
