Chapter 9 — The Male Lead Is a Bit Sick (9)

And now, following the second-level zombies, higher cla.s.sed zombies had begun to emerge . These zombies not only had nimble movements but also possessed evolved brains with human thinking; they were cunning and difficult to deal with .

Huo Junhan was obviously different from the other zombies . For example, he did not show any signs of rot on his body . His food, though, was the same as his kind . Shen Mubai did not know how much inner force he had in his body, but she was sure that Huo Junhan was evolving at an alarming rate . And, unlike when they first met, Huo Junhan seemed to start having human emotions . Before, he was like a beast that followed its own desires, heartless and ruthless . Now, Huo Junhan had obviously changed . He knew how to make himself evolve faster . Those ice blue eyes, that had resembled a machine, began to change a little .

Just as Shen Mubai was starting to feel bored, the system sounded in her head .

“Host, fluctuations from an energy stone have been detected one kilometer away from here . ”

It happened to be when Huo Junhan went out, and, disregarding the possibility of them accidentally meeting, he shouldn’t be back for a while . Shen Mubai quickly sat up . “System, how many zombies are there outside?”

The system replied, “Currently, only a few zombies are wandering around . ”

The site where Shen Mubai was located was concealed, and due to Huo Junhan’s presence, there usually weren’t any zombies that would dare approach the place . Therefore, within a few hundred meters of the place, it was a zombie-free zone .

Moreover, she had an incomparable existence like the system . Shen Mubai followed the clear path given by the system all the way to the provided destination .

The system could only detect the approximate position of the energy stone’s power fluctuations, so it couldn’t give a specific location . Like a thief, Shen Mubai looked for the energy stone while guarding against nearby zombies that were likely to wander over at any time .

Finally, Shen Mubai found the energy stone on the body of a zombie .

It was a small and jade colored, tied around the zombie’s neck with a red string . It had been very difficult to notice because of the blood stains .

Shen Mubai first put her hands together in a serious way, “As the saying goes, life not only brings death but big fortune . ”

System: “…”

The red string was knotted very securely, so Shen Mubai had to untie it . She spent a lot of effort and finally freed it from the neck of the zombie . Just as she let out a sigh of relief, her wrist was suddenly caught by the zombie beneath her .

As Shen Mubai looked at the flesh and blood oozing from the zombie, his mouth and eyes opened .

At the same time, the system sounded in her mind, “Host, another zombie is approaching from ten meters away . ”

The zombie underneath Shen Mubai was lying in a ditch, its leg broken and a gaping hole in its body . It could only hold onto Shen Mubai’s wrist and slowly sit up .

Shen Mubai’s survival instincts kicked in as she used her other hand to grab onto something nearby to try and face the zombies, but it did not help much . The face that was hollow and b.l.o.o.d.y became even more terrifying .
