Chapter 70: 071 Zombie Levels (Asking for subscriptions! Votes for the month! Bookmark requests!)
In the village, news of zombies in the area had already spread far and wide.
When the police arrived at the village and announced the need to evacuate the crowd, it further confirmed the existence of zombies.
One villager asked, “Officer, are there really zombies inside that air-raid shelter?”
Wang Zichong, the team leader, was completely dumbfounded.
Damn!
How did these villagers find out?
...
The news spread faster than they could arrive!
Who leaked the information?
Although it was true, in order not to cause a panic,
the police said, “Ma’am, you’re overthinking it. What age are we living in? How could there possibly be zombies? Where did you hear such rumors? It’s just a regular drill.”
This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.
“What kind of drill? If there were a drill, we’d have known about it beforehand. How could you suddenly ask us to leave? Moreover, several nearby villages have been evacuated. I’ve heard people were bitten by zombies and taken to the hospital. Stop hiding it from us!”
“No way, I just passed by there not long ago. If there really were zombies, wouldn’t that scare people to death?”
A villager was terrified, as they had just passed by the air-raid shelter a few days ago, and had even sat down nearby to rest for a while.
If there really were zombies in there, does that mean they were nearly face-to-face with a zombie?
The police, faced with these eager villagers, were at a loss for words.
“Everyone, we cannot disclose too much about this matter. Of course, as police officers, we would not put you at risk. Please cooperate with us. Don’t make it difficult for us and also consider your own safety.
Now let’s hurry home, pack up, and get ready to move. Okay? We have several other villages to cover. Hurry, as it will be bad once it gets dark!”
These police officers couldn’t say much about the supernatural occurrence.
But it was clear the villagers had received some information and knew something.
Since that was the case, the officers decided to subtly hint to them to pack up and leave quickly.
Hearing what the police said,
every villager had a serious look on their face.
It seemed the matter was indeed true.
Suddenly, many villagers panicked,
hurriedly returned home to pack, preparing to evacuate.
The same scene was happening in other villages.
Villages near the air-raid shelter were busy evacuating.
Meanwhile, at the police station,
an emergency meeting was underway.
All the higher-ups were discussing the zombie incident in the air-raid shelter.
On the large screen in the police meeting room, footage from the body cameras worn by the officers who had entered the air-raid shelter was being shown.
In the footage, you could see zombies suddenly attacking the officers,
and their terrifying appearance.
Some of the leaders sitting in the police station couldn’t help but gasp.
Was that thing in the legend, a zombie?
Some of them had seen zombie movies, but this was their first encounter with real zombies.
Completely different from what’s shown in the movies.
Real zombies have much stronger attack and defense powers than depicted in films.
This zombie seemed impervious to weapons.
Pistol fire was useless.
After watching all the footage, the chief said, “Regarding this matter, what does everyone think? Any ideas? Let’s hear them.”
The first to speak was the captain of the team that had entered the air-raid shelter.
He started, “Chief, regarding this matter, one of our team members is from Hunan, near Xiangxi. As we know, Xiangxi is famous for its corpse handling in folklore.
Our colleague has also come into contact with knowledge about Corpse Handling. He knows more about zombies than we do. Xiao Ma, why don’t you share your knowledge of zombies with the leaders?”
The captain continued.
Then Xiao Ma stood up.
Xiao Ma said, “Leaders, my name is Ma Zhiyuan, and I’m from a small town in Hunan, close to Xiangxi. I have some understanding of zombie knowledge, but not much.
Based on my knowledge, zombies’ strength varies with their level of zombification. They’re divided into different levels.
Those are Walking Corpse, Jumping Zombie, Green Zombie, Fur Zombie, Flying Zombie, Ba, and Undying Bone!
Among them, the Walking Corpse is the weakest, which is a body that has recently died. Xiangxi’s Corpse Handlers usually use secret techniques to control corpses for simple movements to transport them!
Next comes the Jumping Zombie, slightly stronger than a Walking Corpse; having been dead for a longer time, acquiring some aggressiveness, but overall, their strength is average.
Green Zombies are different; they are normally corpses that have been dead for a hundred years, nourished by Yin Energy, turning green all over, and waking up on their own with only thoughts of bloodsucking and cannibalism. The case of drained blood from cattle and sheep in the nearby villages some time ago was probably the work of a Green Zombie!
But the strength of this level of Green Zombie is far from as powerful as the one we saw in the video. What we encountered in the air-raid shelter has a high probability of being a Green Zombie on the verge of evolving into a Fur Zombie!
At this level, they can be called Fur Zombie! According to legend, a Fur Zombie is one whose body has grown hair, known for having copper skin and iron bones. The more advanced they are, the tougher the body becomes.
Agile in movement, they can jump on rooftops and trees, leaping like flying, beginning to fear neither Mortal Fire nor the sun, hardly taking damage from them.
Fortunately, that Green Zombie probably hasn’t fully evolved; otherwise, it would have chosen not only to stop at the entrance of the air-raid shelter but would have chased us out directly.”
Listening to Officer Xiao Ma’s words.
The chief pondered and asked, “I heard among those who entered the air-raid shelter, someone was bitten by a zombie? Will someone bitten by a zombie turn into one?”
Xiao Ma responded, “Theoretically, being bitten by a Walking Corpse or Jumping Zombie is not poisonous. But that was a Half-fur Zombie, I am not sure, but it’s likely that they would turn.”
Xiao Ma had only a basic understanding of zombie knowledge; he was not very clear about the specifics.
The chief nodded and continued, “Then in your opinion, how should we deal with the air-raid shelter situation?”
Xiao Ma said, “Fur Zombies are impervious to knives and guns. Ordinary firearms are of little use against them. My suggestion is to deploy armed police and suppress them directly.”
Although Fur Zombies were formidable, it was, after all, the age of technology.
Pistol bullets might not kill Fur Zombies, but that does not mean other weapons won’t work.
No matter how tough the Fur Zombie is, it can’t withstand the focused fire from an automatic rifle in the hands of every armed police officer.
In such a case, deploying armed police was the best option.
The chief agreed as he also intended this.
Just then, there was a knock on the meeting room door.
The chief said, “Come in!”
After that, a police officer hurried in and said, “Chief, it’s bad! Both Xiao Wang and that worker’s conditions have worsened! The hospital has no solution at all!”
Upon hearing this, everyone in the meeting room stood up.
How could this be?
Modern medicine was unable to treat this?
The reporting officer added, “Chief, the video call has been connected to the large screen. Take a look.”
Subsequently, those in the meeting room saw that the screen connected to the hospital.
On screen, Police Officer Xiao Wang, who had been bitten by a zombie, now had half his body turned purple.
He was showing the same symptoms as the earlier bitten worker, with half of his body stiffening.
The doctor said, “We’ve administered the antidote injection, but it has had no effect.”
As for the other, the worker who was bitten before the police officer, was already starting to mutate.
He had lost consciousness and was tied to the bed, but it didn’t stop him from growing sharp teeth and a desire to bite.
The wound on the worker’s shoulder was also starting to rot.
The hospital was equally helpless.
Suddenly, everyone in the meeting room was silent.
The chief didn’t know what to do.
Only Xiao Ma said, “Chief, I suddenly remembered someone. I will contact a Corpse Handler back in my hometown. He has a lot of experience and deals with corpses every day. Maybe he has a solution!”
The chief was stunned.
What?
Corpse Handler?
Damn!
There are still such professions these days!
