Chapter 838: Whiny Captains
Captain Zhang spoke clearly, every word he said not only reached the superpower users in the safety base.
But was also transmitted to all parts of the world via radio.
And each coastal safety base worldwide welcomed a powerful human superpower user and a Zombie King who was no different from a human.
Some high rank zombies that had been crazily attacking human safety bases also quieted down.
The outside world was exceptionally quiet, only the seaside was noisy.
Yunhua Safety Base.
The smile on the superpower users’ faces from Captain Zhang’s arrival froze instantly after hearing his words.
Zhang Yiming, Zombie Emperor.
Everyone knew Zhang Yiming’s name, it was spread from Fire Phoenix Safety Base.
One of the first zombies discovered by humans that was exactly like a human, Zhang Yiming and Fan Tangtang.
It was once a nightmare that dominated humans.
The last straw that crushed humans’ wish for the apocalypse to end quickly, it also made humans aware that some zombies possessed intelligence similar to humans.
Zombies have always been hideous, mercilessly devouring human flesh.
Most people never considered joining forces with zombies, not even to resist the enemy sea creatures.
Afraid that before killing the enemy sea creatures, humans would be eaten by zombies first.
“I will lead the zombie horde to fight alongside you all, whether you believe it or not, we… will be your reinforcements and the spearhead unit charging ahead.”
Zhang Yiming said the word “we” with a hint of bitterness at the corner of his mouth.
No matter how unwilling to accept, it was indeed the truth.
He, like those hideous zombies, was the same kind, when saying ‘we,’ it was indeed so.
“Captain Zhang, are we really going to join forces with zombies?”
“What if the zombies go crazy?”
“Zombies devour humans without leaving bones, how could they be reinforcements!”
“This might be a trick, they just want to devour flesh, how could they fight alongside us against sea monsters!”
“Can they be trusted?”
“They are monsters!”
“Indeed, what those people said last time was true. People inside the base are really colluding with zombies, joining forces with them!”
…
Captain Zhang and Base Commander were present, and here inside the safety base, there were many superpower users while Zhang Yiming was alone.
Their courage grew significantly, some even had intense superpower fluctuations, ready to act at any time.
Their gazes at Zhang Yiming were filled with fear and loathing.
Unconcealed.
Zhang Yiming’s cold gaze swept over those faces, a trace of fury flashed in his eyes, but he suppressed it well.
Tiny and selfish ants.
Memories flashed in his mind, things done by the future Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming, and also by his future self.
Safety bases turned into ruins under his command.
Those ants looked at him only with wails and pleas, never daring to be so presumptuous.
Waves of violent impulses ravaged his mind, constantly reminding him of what he should do at this moment.
Kill them all, their flesh is the most delicious food of time.
But――
Zhang Yiming’s gaze finally fell on the Bai Family members.
The Bai Family was not in the crowd; they stood in a corner, listening to the negative voices from superpower users, looking somewhat anxious.
Bai Yifan’s face was red with urgency, and he was still debating with the superpower user closest to him.
“We can’t beat the sea monsters; with a powerful Zombie King, our chances of winning increase!”
“Captain Zhang believes it’s feasible, so why should we oppose it!”
Bai Yifan argued with the superpower user, seemingly having the debating skills of the elderly in a village.
Zhang Yiming’s gloom instantly dissipated, a faint smile remained on his face as he slightly nodded towards the direction of the Bai Family.
He didn’t speak.
He was only here to notify everyone, not to make them accept.
Whether anyone opposed or not, it wouldn’t change the plan he and Captain Zhang decided on.
Moreover…
Zhang Yiming glanced at Captain Zhang with an indecipherable look.
That guy was not one to suffer losses.
He had an extreme method to ensure the zombies wouldn’t turn against them or suddenly attack superpower users during collaboration.
Captain Zhang calmly watched the agitated superpower users, letting them vent.
Captain Zhang, Zhang Yiming, and Base Commander, these three individuals with incredibly strong superpower fluctuations, stood quietly, their eyes indifferent as they looked at the stage below.
Five minutes passed, ten minutes passed.
An hour later, the stage below finally quieted down.
“I understand everyone’s concerns, but the decision has been discussed and made by safety base leaders worldwide.”
“Not just our Huaxia safety bases, but safety bases worldwide have coordinated with their captains and me, all agreeing that collaboration with zombies is feasible.”
“Ordinary zombies lack self-awareness, indeed dangerous, and couldn’t collaborate, but high rank zombies can perfectly control the zombie horde via brainwaves, ensuring they follow the leader’s command without errors.”
Captain Zhang said with a smile.
Those captains were really lacking; they cried during discussions, annoying to no end.
But who lets Captain Zhang care for the world like this!
Even though those unskilled captains fond of crying annoyed him, he patiently “taught” them how to lead everyone in resisting the creatures from the sea.
Thinking of this, Captain Zhang was moved to tears by himself.
“But just days ago, zombie hordes were attacking numerous safety bases, trying to expand their numbers during times when people hadn’t taken medicine pills!”
Someone raised a question.
“Yeah! Yeah! Aren’t those zombies attacking various safety bases commanded by high rank zombies? Who could assure they won’t turn against us during the battle?”
“There’s not only one high rank zombie; there are more than one Zombie Kings resembling humans, even if a few Zombie Kings are friendly towards humans, how can it be guaranteed that all zombies will heed their command?”
“Zombies can’t possibly overcome their instinct to devour flesh, it’s impossible!”
The buzzing sound below resumed, filled with voices of dissent.
“Has anyone noticed? Even though zombies attacked bases, the assaults were weak, some bases weren’t even breached before the zombies retreated.”
Captain Zhang spoke again.
“Due to the negotiations a few days ago, zombie hordes have quieted down now, not only our region but the entire Earth.”
“And this is all due to his doing, his brainwaves can control all zombies, making them unconditionally follow his command.”
Captain Zhang pointed outside the safety base, continuing,
“Does everyone remember when a safety base under zombie siege suddenly turned on themselves, allowing everyone to collect crystal cores? If not for the high rank zombie’s command, how could there be this advantageous situation?”
Captain Zhang’s words reminded everyone of past events, the fear of being surrounded by zombies and the excitement of picking up crystal cores after surviving.
Maybe these really had connections with Zhang Yiming.
But trusting a Zombie Emperor from their core was still somewhat outrageous.
Zombies are zombies; how can they be worthy of trust!
