Chapter 15: Zombie Dog

Chapter 15: Zombie Dog

Elijah focused intently on the zombie dog in front of him, slowly closing the previously opened anti-theft door.

No one understood these things better than him; in his past life, he had controlled two of them.

Regular human zombies, if not in large numbers, weren't very threatening.

Many people were just too frightened to effectively deal with them.

Overcoming fear and possessing skilled techniques made dealing with human zombies a breeze.

But animal zombies were different! Especially the most common zombie dogs in the city, each one was extremely tricky, following animal hunting instincts!

As the door was about to close, the zombie dog exerted all its strength, its reddened muscles bulging as it lunged towards him.

Elijah firmly held the door handle, not fully closing it, leaving only a fist-sized gap.

It could be quite difficult to deal with a zombie dog in a confined space, but now there was a door!

Elijah wasn't afraid of it!

"Bam!"

The zombie dog crashed into the door, but it didn't budge. Alll latest novels at novelhall.com

Soon, a fierce mouth full of sharp teeth protruded through the gap in the door.

Because the gap was too small, the zombie dog's mouth, covered in reddish muscles and black twisted tendons, could only open slightly, attempting to bite Elijah.

With one hand controlling the door, Elijah flicked a drop of blood into the zombie dog's mouth.

With the ability activated, the zombie dog quickly stopped its actions and became calm.

"What's going on?" Daisy, who had heard the commotion, walked over.

"I've tamed a little thing!" Elijah slightly opened the door, letting the zombie dog out, which startled Daisy.

"So ugly!"

...

"So you just find it ugly, and you're not scared?" Elijah was somewhat immune to her straightforward nerves but still found it unbelievable.

"Ugly is scary enough! I've never been able to stand the sight of hairless animals like this..."

After getting over her initial discomfort, Daisy squatted down to observe it.

"Even animals can turn into zombies... Did it eat people?"

A girl who looked sweet and lovely, cute and adorable, squatting beside a terrifying zombie dog with reddish muscles, black tendons, and not a single hair on its body, saying it ate people. No matter how you looked at it, it was bizarre.

He then gathered usable supplies from the house into the hallway before locking the door again.

There was no need to linger in such a terrifying and oppressive room!

"There's so much stuff, enough to last me a long time!"

Daisy also brought the supplies from the ground floor grandma's house into the hallway, stacking them up.

"But there's still too little water!" Elijah sighed; neither household had much bottled water or beverages, only buckets of water.

"Let's leave these things here for now and continue searching other units. Which one do you think might still have people?"

"The second floor should be empty. 201 just moved out to take care of their grandson, and 202 is a family of three. Their child is in high school and doesn't come home, and both parents should be at work!" Daisy counted on her fingers.

"301's door was open, and I saw that everything inside had been taken, probably by you, Elijah!"

"302 is rented out to a couple, but they're probably not at home. However, they have a dog..."

Soon, Daisy introduced every unit in the building.

Except for one vacant unit on the sixth floor, all others were occupied, although most were likely empty.

Elijah thought carefully, most people would have left for work or school during the peak hours of the zombie outbreak.

Elijah explored the entire building, just as Daisy had said.

Besides finding a nearly starved little dog in 302, they encountered no one else or any more zombies.

Daisy followed along, busy collecting all the supplies into the hallway.

They had collected a considerable amount of food and water.

There was no need to worry about it for the time being!

Standing in the hallway on the sixth floor, Elijah breathed a sigh of relief but then felt a little anxious.

The last corpse core hadn't been found yet.

"Do we have to go out and look for zombies?"

Looking at the time, it was already past one o'clock.

They had been too hungry at 11 o'clock and had eaten some pastries.

Now, their stomachs were growling again. With their current state, they needed to eat and then organize the supplies downstairs.

Elijah's gaze shifted to the zombie dog.

"This dog has eaten two corpses. Could it possibly have a corpse core?"
