Chapter 98 - 98 Negotiating With Zombies

98 Negotiating With Zombies

“Argh! It’s you guys!

“Damn it, this guy actually trapped me in the refrigerator last time!

“I’m so angry!”

Tang Tang stomped her feet and clutched the axe.

If Wang Ran hadn’t come to save her last time, she might have been eaten by the zombies!

There were still so many games that she hadn’t cleared, and she didn’t want to die.

“Calm down. Don’t keep thinking about killing.”

Wang Ran rubbed Tang Tang’s head.

Wang Ran was very interested in this zombie.

He had a feeling that this zombie was different from the others.

“Human, why are you so ruthless…”

The hooded zombie looked at Wang Ran and asked in a hoarse voice.

“Ruthless?

“There are so many zombies. You guys won’t go extinct anytime soon!

“But since some of them do get in my way, I still have to deal with them.

“I live in this city, after all. I don’t want any zombies to affect my life,”

Wang Ran replied.

If someone asked him to be a saint and clear the city up?

Not if you paid me.

However, if something close by was rapidly gaining strength, Wang Ran still had to come out and take a look.

A single spark could start a Prairie Fire, and he would be at ease if he extinguished the sparks.

“Human, I don’t want to be your enemy…” he said.

“Moreover, we have never taken the initiative to attack human bases.

“Other than the people in Computer city’s basement, we have not eaten any other humans.

“Ever since we retreated to this place, we have been feeding on low-level zombies.

“We just want to survive.

“Do you understand?”

The hooded zombie said earnestly.

Wang Ran was stunned.

To be honest, this was the first time he had such a deep conversation with a zombie that was not of his own.

Before his transmigration, Wang Ran was a coward. He rarely came into contact with Awakened Ones, let alone Mutated Zombies.

He didn’t know much about things at this level.

Only now that he was stronger, he had the chance to talk to Mutated Zombies face to face like this.

It turned out that zombies also recluses of their own…

They were acting rather similarly to his past self.

“To tell you the truth, I’m a selfish person…

“I only believe in myself.

“You guys are growing too fast, so you’re a threat to me.

“I will not allow any threat to exist in my city.”

Wang Ran answered.

“Roar…”

The Mutated Zombies in the dark let out extremely dissatisfied roars.

The hooded zombie held a hand up to stop them.

“I’m Chen Zeyang. How should I address you?”

The hooded zombie continued to express its friendliness.

“Pfft… cough cough cough…”

“Chen Zeyang?”

Wang Ran’s body trembled.

Before he transmigrated, everyone practically knew this name…

If Wu Jianguo was the most powerful man in City N, then Chen Zeyang was the most powerful man in China!

Even Wang Ran, who had remained hiding for a year, had heard of his deeds.

It was said that he had destroyed many Mutant Zombie nests. No zombie could survive wherever he went.

Also, he even had female zombies of his own.

If this was in a novel, he would be the main character!

‘Why did he turn into a zombie so early this time…’

How tragic …

Of course, it was possible that they had the same name. However, there were not that many coincidences in the world…

“What, you know me?”

The hooded zombie was stunned.

He was just an ordinary shut-in when he was alive, so how could anyone possibly know him?

“Um… Your name just sounds like someone I’m familiar with.

“By the way, my name is Wang Ran.”

Wang Ran replied.

Since this zombie could be the famous Chen Zeyang…

He could perhaps listen.

“To be honest, I’ve watched a lot of zombie movies and played a lot of zombie games before I died.

“I’m very clear about my current state.

“It’s indeed difficult to make humans trust us and live in peace with us.

“I’ve already heard about the destruction of the Bloodfang Camp.

“It was your doing…

“I believe that you’re definitely powerful enough to destroy our small base.

“But…

“I still hope that we can have a chat.”

Zombie Chen Zeyang suggested.

“Then tell me, what do you want to talk about?”

Wang Ran asked with a smile.

“If you’re worried that we’ll be a threat to you here….

“We can move someplace else tomorrow, even another country.

“We only hope that we have a chance to survive…

“Who knows if there will be vaccines or something like that in the future to let us return to normal.”

The zombie Chen Zeyang said sincerely.

Wang Ran thought about it and felt that what he said made sense.

If zombies regained their consciousness, they could actually control their own behavior.

If they could really do as he said and not eat humans…

Indeed, it would not pose too much of a threat to mankind.

There could be good and bad people in any group.

If he thought about it this way…

He could give them the benefit of the doubt.

If they obediently left his city, Wang Ran would have a new understanding of zombies.

If they were just stalling for time…

If Wang Ran wanted to kill them, it would only take him a few more days.

“Fine. If you leave before dawn tomorrow, I’ll let you go.”

Wang Ran spread his hands.

“Thank you, human, Wang Ran.”

Zombie Chen Zeyang nodded slightly.

He was smart and did not want to have a conflict with an expert like Wang Ran.

“As a reward…

“I can tell you a secret we discovered by accident.”

Zombie Chen Zeyang waved his hand, and a zombie immediately ran to turn on the light.

Rows of fluorescent tubes were lit up one after another.

Wang Ran saw that many zombies were tied to the electric circuit.

Electric currents seemed to be flowing through their bodies.

“We found this after we came here.”

Electricity greatly stimulates the cells in our body.

“It levels us up.

“Of course, the probability of failure is very high. Once you fail…”

Before Chen Zeyang could finish, a “crack” came from one of the zombies.

Then, a burning smell wafted into the air.

The Zombie’s head drooped down. It did not look good.

Wang Ran understood.

Using the energy of science to force energy into a vessel.

Madman had done the same.

However, humans had more water in their bodies than zombies, so it was highly dangerous.

Those who were not Awakened could not do this.

It was a good way for zombies to improve their strength.

Chen Zeyang was quite sincere to tell him about this discovery.
