Chapter 227 Learning The Truth (Part 2)

Sarah's words were the confirmation that he needed. The pieces of what was happening to him, and everything else, were slowly coming together. Now that he had found the person that he was looking for, he could ask all the questions he wanted, especially about the system that just popped up stating he had completed a quest.

[Find 2/2 of the people that started the Zombie Apocalypse]

[Quest reward: 4 Silver cards.]

'Well, I wasn't expecting something like the diamond reward since there was no quest difficulty set with this, but 4 silver cards could also be good. It might just be a bunch of experience or stat points but everything is helpful in the end.'

After looking at the pendant intently, Sarah pushed it back toward Zain, and let out a big sigh.

"You must have a lot of questions." Sarah said. "There is a lot to explain to you, things that might confuse the others, so I think it's best if we walk around for a bit. I'll show you around the place." Sarah stated.

It was the first time that she had decided to show around a new Reborn, since their numbers had grown large in size, and she was willingly accepting him before asking him a number of questions.

To Sid and X, this scene felt oddly weird, but judging from the conversation they had overheard so far, it seemed like the two possibly knew each other.

Standing up from her seat, she made sure to inform the two as well as the others not to follow them again, and Zain quickly followed Sarah. He wasn't worried, he could smell that she was still a human.

Walking down the corridors, they were heading away from where the rest of the Reborn were, and instead they were heading to the second floor where her current lab was.

"First off, I want to say that I'm glad you are alive, and secondly, I'm sorry for getting you mixed up in all of this mess." These words were said just before Sarah pushed the door open to her lab, and inside there were a number of machines as well as different things wrapped up in containers and being monitored.

"I'm not the only one that works here, a few of the other Reborn also work and help out with the research,  but they don't enter unless I'm here as well."

There were a number of different things that had caught Zain's eye immediately.

There were crystals around the place, all at different stages, and he could even see a stage three crystal being analysed.

At the same time, there was what looked like a piece of active meteorite, and then there were a few more shocking things. One was the tentacle of a demon, swirling about in a tube.

Eventually, in the room there was a resting table where the workers would have a coffee away from all the equipment.  Sarah sat down and waited for Zain to join her.

"Alright… So where should I begin?" Sarah said as she placed her finger on her chin. There was just so much to talk about.

"Why don't we first talk about the zombies, the thing that started this whole thing." Zain said, and he wanted to add one more bit of information that he knew. "And the fact that you, and that man, were the one that started this whole thing."

It was clear that the news had shocked her, the person in front of her, out of his own curiosity had done some digging, or at least that's what she thought had happened.

"I was told about the fact that you met that man. I assume he has told you a few things?" Sarah asked.

Zain didn't want to say anything, otherwise he feared that the other might withhold information.

"The man that you met back then, the one in question, was a researcher like me who was part of the Reborn group, and to be more accurate, he was my husband." Sarah explained. "However, when you talk about us creating this zombie outbreak, that's not true at all, we were simply the ones that discovered it first.

"As part of the Reborn research group we were looking into ways of stopping what has happened from happening. We were also trying to find a cure, to turn those that had been turned back.

"We had done well to keep it all contained and our research was going well, all until the meteor strike had happened. There is a reason why when the meteorite strike appeared, that the zombie outbreak had occurred as well.

"One of the meteorites hit the facility, and those demons appeared. It caused an outbreak to occur, one that we couldn't, and the military couldn't, handle.  At least not at the same time as these demons appearing, which is why the area, a little further than this town that we are in, has been completely cordoned and sealed off by the military."

It was hard for Zain to confirm if what Sarah was saying was the truth or not, but he did know a few things. Although many thought the zombie virus had started when the meteorites struck, that in itself was false.

Sarah confirmed this as well, then there was the fact that she and the man that he had met before had worked together. Once again, she had confirmed that with her explanation as well.

"Then what about the Reborn group now, why the Reborn zombies, why the evolution of zombies, and what of the demons' goal, or your own goal in creating this place?" Zain asked.

"I can answer all of those questions for you." Sarah replied. "But don't you want to know about yourself first, and why you became a Reborn, a Reborn with a system?"
