Chapter 216 Hesitation

Should I turn back to my tribe? Or should I keep going? If I go back, the tribe might already be occupied. If I keep going, it's too dangerous ahead, and I don't have any superpowers or anything! This is a tough situation!

After hesitating for a while, Xu Que decided to stop hesitating and lie down to rest before making a decision.

Perhaps it's because the current apocalypse is too normal, or at least it has been relatively normal for quite some time now!

In many green areas, one can vaguely see people using farm tools to cultivate and dig in the wasteland.

Xu Que turned to look at Ha Gang and Ping Yao again: "I'm in a really bad mood right now, so irritable! My head feels like it's going to explode! So when I see people farming, I just want to retire! I feel so tired! Sometimes I feel like I'm not really alone anymore! I can't be as carefree as I used to be, doing whatever I wanted!"

When Ha Gang and Ping Yao heard Xu Que's sentimental words, they first gave a very virtuous "giggle," then shook their heads, feigning helplessness: "I never expected you would still think of me! I'm truly flattered! I never thought that you, a former thug with connections to organized crime, would one day become so sentimental!"

"Hey! Everyone understands eventually! It's just that some people understand early and some people understand late!" Xu Que said, patting his head a few times.

"Sigh, I was influenced by my family when I was young, so I'm particularly interested in money! I feel like I can do whatever I want as long as I have money! Maybe it's because I was spoiled by my parents since I was a child, so I've done a lot of bad things! Now that I've ended up like this, I guess it's God's punishment for me!" Xu Que seemed to be repenting.

Seeing this, Ha Gang and Ping Yao patted Xu Que on the shoulder, encouraging and urging him, "You can think that way, but you can't give up on your dreams! Look, although the apocalypse is over, the world is still quite chaotic! This is not conducive to the spread and development of civilization. Didn't we agree to rule the earth together? Are you getting discouraged now?"

After hearing what Ha Gang and Ping Yao said, Xu Que appeared visibly depressed and lost, as if he had lost all his former passion and looked listless. It was clear that Xu Que was troubled by an indescribable sense of frustration.

He felt that after using the methods that Ha Gang and Ping Yao had taught him to exercise his body and mind, which could be well integrated with Ha Gang and Ping Yao's methods, he felt that while there was some effect, it wasn't very obvious. It was like having a chronic disease that couldn't be easily cured but was deadly and very torturous.

Hagang and Pingyao have changed a lot. The Zerg have been transforming in both mindset and physiology towards humans, and even towards women. This is a very obvious effect and a great improvement.

In Ha Gang and Ping Yao's view, the methods they had found in their last search that involved training themselves and Xu Que's body and mind to better integrate were very effective and helpful for their union. Becoming strong was very meaningful, so they felt that Xu Que shouldn't be so negative.

At this moment, Xu Que seemed to be struggling. He lay on the grass and began to paddle wildly with his limbs, sometimes swimming like a frog and sometimes paddling like a dog.

However, he never lay flat, fearing that if he did, he might crush Ha Gang and Ping Yao to death.

Ha Gang and Ping Yao felt that they should cheer Xu Que on more at this time.

“Look! What is that person planting not far ahead? Why don’t we go over and take a look? Look at all these little groves around here. If you really like this place, we can cut down trees, build houses, and settle down. We can also grow vegetables and raise small animals or something…” Ha Gang and Ping Yao said to Xu Que.

After hearing what Ha Gang and Ping Yao said, Xu Que thought it was a good idea, and it was also what he wanted to do most at the moment.

"Hmm! I'm starting to feel like you can read my mind. How do you know what I'm thinking so easily! It seems I have to thank those scientific and systematic training methods that help our bodies and minds integrate better!" Xu Que said, then stood up and stopped lying on the ground, his eyes becoming bright and alert.

"Okay! Let's go take a look! Let's see what they're planting!" Xu Que said as he walked towards the busy farmer who was turning over the soil and sowing seeds.

Xu Que approached with anticipation and asked politely, "Fellow villager! What are you planting?" After speaking, Xu Que bent down with a friendly and reassuring expression and picked up what looked like seeds that the farmer had scattered.

He held several of these things, which looked like corn seeds and wheat grains, in his hand and examined them carefully.

I wondered to myself, "Is this farmer so unhappy that I grabbed the seeds that people had scattered? He's been turning his back to me the whole time, not looking at me or saying a word!"

When Xu Que thought of this, he reacted like a girl who had caught a cockroach or a caterpillar. He was startled and then reflexively threw it away.

These mysterious seeds that Xu Que threw on the ground seemed to be possessed; they suddenly grew legs and started running.

The other seeds scattered by the man who looked like a farmer all began to scatter across the ground, spurred on by the running seeds thrown down by Xu Que, like ants moving house before a rainstorm.

Seeing that the seeds had strangely sprouted legs and were running around frantically as if searching for something, the farmer, draped in a mysterious black cloak, hissed softly like a zombie, turned his head and glanced at Xu Que, Ha Gang, and Ping Yao, who, like crazed monkeys, crawled on all fours and ran quickly and frantically into the forest.

"What is this? Why does its back look so human? What kind of higher-dimensional creature is this? Its cry sounds a bit like a zombie! Could this be another generation of zombies? It's unbelievable!" Xu Que asked Ha Gang and Ping Yao with great confusion.

Ha Gang and Pingyao didn't actually know what it was.

"Could it be that some people have turned into zombies again? A new type of zombie?" Xu Que was completely confused and continued to ask Ha Gang and Ping Yao.

Looking at Ha Gang and Ping Yao, they seem to know everything. Even if there are things they don't know, they can quickly find out or understand them through their super brains.

Ha Gang and Ping Yao were completely bewildered by the species that had just fled into the forest, unable to find anything no matter how they searched.

Xu Que could understand that this thing might be a new species, but what puzzled him was: why do they walk upright and work like humans?

Is it out of curiosity that they deliberately imitate humans? Or is there some unspeakable secret behind this?
