Chapter 114: Firmly Exposed!

At last, what happened was what the male lead and Tyler feared the most. The zombie queen quickly controlled Tyler. And the moment the latter was under her control, his eyes went red as veins popped on his forehead. His moments instantly became stiff.

The only good thing was that no one could see his original zombie body; otherwise, they would have found out the truth.

But right now, Neil couldn't focus on any of those thoughts. His mind buzzed with the desire to save his baby, but when he was about to crush Hope under his feet, he remembered what Tyler said the last time and could only grit his teeth.

Tyler clearly didn't want him to do anything to the female lead for now. And if he didn't do anything, Hope would drag his baby away instantly. Then what would she do to him? Would she force him to do all her dirty work?

Neil didn't know what else he could do. So he laughed bitterly. "You want to take him away, fine. But remember, someday, you will be crushed until not even your soul could be saved!"

But the female lead didn't think of it as a threat. She wanted everyone to know the truth about Tyler and power up by taking away the human cores. So now that she had achieved her purpose, she mentally recalled all her servant zombies and said, "I'll be going for now, but I'll return for sure."

Neil sneered but refused to look at her. His only focus was on Tyler, whose eyes were still red as if they would burst out any minute. At this moment, the male lead could only force himself to calm down and think of his baby's real body outside the transmigration system.

If he took another wrong turn in this world, seeing how critical Tyler's condition had become, he wasn't sure if his baby would be able to survive longer. So he could see Hope forcing Tyler to come with her.

At last, Hope was the last one to walk away after all the zombies left the second base, and after her, Tyler's body stiffly walked behind her. That person clearly didn't want to go, but since his body was being controlled, he didn't have another choice.

His heart felt like it was being pierced by thousands of arrows with every step he took. He was also trying to get control of his body back, but he was clearly unable to do so. And the mental exhaustion only increased to the point of fainting.

How good would it have been if he still was a little cat? Tyler didn't want to be a zombie king at all!

On the other side, Neil's eyes stuck on Tyler's receding until he could no longer see the guy. And only then his eyes wandered around the place to see what the rest of the people were doing.

The entire second base was covered with blood. Half of the humans were dead, while some were severely injured. After this, Neil closed his eyes to control his turbulent emotions, and when he opened them, no one could see what this person was thinking. His entire aura had changed into something fiercer as if he wasn't the one with water power but fire.

Some people were glancing at him with a trace of sympathy in their eyes, while others seemed on guard against him.

This kind of expression clearly made him realize that they had found out about Tyler's identity. It didn't matter anyway. What he needed to do was become stronger than even the female lead and take his baby back! From what he still remembered, this world's last arc was still approaching. So he just needed to pass through the last few months before he could finally kill Hope!

Before this, none of the characters from the world infuriated him so much. And now that the female lead had successfully grabbed his attention, he intended to make her suffer the worst torture of the universe!

After a little while, they realized that many weak and stronger people died, including Clay, the leader of the destroyed second zone. So the rest of the people could helplessly turn to Neil, who was the second most powerful person after their leader.

Among those people, who used to be against the male lead, included Gavin's group. They had clearly forgotten earlier that Neil was way stronger than them, and now, even after facing Hope, he couldn't kill her directly. So they could only helplessly grit their teeth and come under Neil's protection for the time being.

When they would become powerful, they all thought of walking away and starting their own safe zone.

So, for now, the atmosphere in the zone wasn't as bad as Neil had expected. But he knew that once things would stabilize, they would indeed talk about his baby.

And sure enough, after two more days passed, Gavin's group started making trouble.

"That Tyler was really a snake. Leader, how come you didn't realize this before?"

"Hah, I assume that leader Neil himself knew about Tyler's identity. But the fact that a powerful zombie-like him could stay hidden among us is scary!" Gavin said. His voice was filled with disdain.

"Ah...isn't that why wherever Tyler went with us, we failed to find any zombies? Now I realize why that was happening!" Someone else commented.

"Wait, why isn't anyone talking about how we all faced a zombie tide in the previous safe zone? Tyler was clearly powerful. But now only he didn't control the zombies, but he also allowed them to fight with us!"

A few survivors realized this as well and discussed this with the survivors of the second safe zone.

At this time, Neil, who was just passing by the corridor, finally heard the murmurs of the people talking while cleaning the area. His footsteps paused, and a cold aura surrounded him.

Suddenly, the people who were cleaning suddenly felt the temperature around them dropping bit by bit, and they couldn't help, but exchange looks. That's when they heard an icy voice.

"If you have that much time to chatter, you can just get out of the base."

Everyone quieted down except Gavin. He already hated how the male lead had behaved every time there was an important thing being discussed in the meeting. So now, when the male lead had made such a mistake as to flirt with Tyler, who was a zombie king hiding his true identity, in front of everyone, Gavin clearly wouldn't let this person go away so quickly!
