Chapter 28: You And Lynn Attacked A Human Base
[When you and Lynn left your base, you used your mind control superpower to control some zombies to guard your base or at least act as your CCTV cameras. After all, your mind control superpower has developed the ability to share the vision of your controlled puppets.]
[You and Lynn went to the nearest human settlement. Since it was already 8 months since the start of the apocalypse, it was unlikely to find any food from convenience stores and malls since they were already emptied by the survivors.]
[So, you and Lynn had decided to raid the nearest human base. Not only could you obtain food from there, but you can also obtain food for Lynn. After all, human awakeners at A-rank were present in human bases and their flesh could nourish Lynn and satiate her hunger.]
[You and Lynn arrived at the nearest human base. When you and Lynn arrived, the humans who guarded the walls seemed to recognize your and Lynn's identities. You know that it was likely the military spreading the notoriety of you and Lynn.]
["Lynn, you have reached S-rank so it's time for you to test your power." You gave Lynn the chance to show off her power as you stood by the side, waiting for her to demonstrate her power.]
[Just for assurance, you had secretly released your mental perception and Lynn had noticed but not the weak humans in the base. You didn't plan to intervene unless Lynn got bored or was injured.]
["Okay, Alister." Lynn nodded at you and mobilized the viral energy in her body, causing the surrounding air to tremble!]
[Clenching her fist, Lynn channeled her viral energy and concentrated it on her right fist. Of course, the humans in the base already detected the turbulent viral energy in Lynn's body and they knew that they were no match for Lynn!]
[Even so, they weren't idiots who would wait for Lynn to finish her move. Even if they knew that they couldn't defeat Lynn, they still gritted their teeth and the strongest human awakener in the human base had already stepped out to attack Lynn!]
[The strongest human awakener in the human base was a teenager whose appearance looked familiar to you. But when you notice that arcs of lightning were released in that guy's body, you remember that he was none other than the human awakener with lightning superpower in dormitory 172!]
[You remembered that he was that hateful guy who had killed you in the first simulation when you had become a zombie. Although you know that it was self-defense for him to kill you at that time, you didn't care anyway since you are stronger than him so you are the right while he is the wrong.]
[You didn't hold any hatred for him so you decided not to intervene in the battle. You know that Lynn could easily defeat him since as an S-rank human awakener, you know the gap between A-rank and S-rank.]
[But you noticed that the lightning human awakener created several lightning spears and bombarded it towards Lynn who was still preparing her strongest move. Although you know that Lynn could withstand those attacks since her body's defense was S-rank and those lightning spears were only at A-rank Late Stage, you didn't want to see any attacks sullying Lynn's body.]
[With your thought alone, before the lightning spears could reach a meter near Lynn's location, all of those lightning spears collapsed into countless particles and dissipated into the air. Much to the surprise of the onlookers as well as the lightning human awakener, they couldn't even detect your mental power and could only assume that the lightning spears were nullified.]
[You know that they had assumed that you had the power to nullify supernatural powers but you didn't care about their thoughts. After all, the living doesn't need to care about a bunch of dead men.]
[Not to mention, your control over your mental power has already reached the cellular level so you can use it to deconstruct the viral energy within the attacks of human awakeners.]
[You had already discovered that even the elemental attacks of human awakeners or evolved zombies weren't purely made out of elements but also viral energy. As long as the viral energy within those elements was eliminated, most of the elements would dissipate while the remnants were greatly reduced in power.]
[It has only been ten seconds since Lynn had channeled her viral energy into her fist and you noticed that she was ready to release it! It seems that those human awakeners also notice the danger of Lynn's accumulated power and they start to flee in all directions.]
[But before those human awakeners could successfully flee, they were trapped inside your mental barrier. No matter how they tried, they could never destroy your mental barrier and leave their base. You find it ironic that the base that they used to protect themselves from the evolved zombies had become their prison.]
[You didn't find any joy in killing sentient lives, but you also didn't find it repulsive. Anyways, it's like killing a bunch of animals and livestock. If they die, they die.]
[While you witnessed the despair etched on their faces, you gazed at Lynn dumbfoundingly and asked, "Lynn, aren't you going overboard? You don't have to use your strongest move to wipe out a bunch of dregs."]
