The Zombie Empress Builds Infrastructure in the Apocalypse

After Fan Xin was forced to self-destruct, she was reborn back to before the apocalypse descended. Unexpectedly, even after rebirth, she was still a zombie. Unwilling to repeat her previous life...

Chapter 50

Kong Hongxi's vision was blurred. She seemed to have lost all her strength and could not move. Her breathing was extremely weak. She was carried from the western suburbs to the square in the city center.

She struggled to open her eyes, but her vision became increasingly blurred, until she was plunged into complete darkness.

When she woke up, there were many corpses around her, and several of them were pressing on her, making it difficult for her to breathe.

She reached out to push the body away and tried to get up, but she heard the hum of a car.

Kong Hongxi immediately lay back down, letting the corpse fall on top of her.

She couldn't see the faces of those people, but she could hear their voices, which were the same as the voices of the people who had carried her and thrown her here.

"Tsk, what a hassle, we have to transport them here."

"It's a bit troublesome now, but it will be easier later. We only have so many bombs, and if we don't gather them together, they won't be enough."

"Hurry up, there's not much time left."

Kong Hongxi vaguely saw them taking the bodies off the car and throwing them onto the square. There were dozens of them. She even saw Song Lian's capable men among them.

What on earth do these people want to do?

Kong Hongxi held her breath, her chest aching. She stared intently at the gaps between the corpses, but could not see the people outside clearly.

After they drove away, Kong Hongxi struggled to crawl out from the pile of corpses.

She stood staggering in the square, and all she saw were corpses, with blood oozing from the corpses and flowing on the ground in the square.

Kong Hongxi suddenly opened her eyes and gasped for breath, her chest heaving violently.

In front of her was the roof of the RV. The surroundings were extremely quiet. Kong Hongxi blinked slowly, almost feeling that everything before was just a dream.

Suddenly, she turned her head and met Zhang Huai's eyes.

"You..." Kong Hongxi looked at the pair of gloomy and dark eyes. Just as she opened her mouth, Zhang Huai, with an expressionless face, slashed his hand at her neck.

Kong Hongxi, who had just woken up, blinked and fainted again.

Zhang Huai supported her limp body and pushed her back onto the chair. He withdrew his hand and continued to lean back in the chair with his eyes closed.

Bai Wenrou silently withdrew her gaze, tapped her chest with her fingers, and observed a few seconds of silence for the unknown lady.

On top of the tower.

The third brother suddenly looked towards the square. He stood up suddenly and narrowed his eyes: "Xiao Ba! Come here quickly, those people are getting ready to leave!"

Xiao Ba yawned while sitting on the ground. When he heard the third brother calling him, he jumped up and ran to the side of the tower to look over. "Third brother, what should we do now?"

"Their tires burst." The boss sat aside and said lazily.

The third brother's face was gloomy: "No, those zombies have no intention of attacking the car at all. They even moved aside to make way for them!"

The boss was also stunned when he heard this. He stood up and walked over, picked up the telescope and looked towards the square.

The square was swarming with zombies, so densely packed that it was impossible to move around.

The RV backed out of the cake shop, and the dense zombies retreated to both sides, revealing a path for the RV to pass through.

"Ah, interesting! I wonder what kind of supernatural power this is that can actually make zombies give way?" The boss touched his chin and said, "If only this person could join us, we would save so much effort."

Xiao Ba touched the back of his neck: "Is the tire still flat?"

The third brother shouted angrily, "Explode! Why not explode? I don't believe those zombies are really vegetarians. When they get out of the car, how can these zombies not eat them?"

Xiao Ba looked at the boss.

The boss waved his hand: "Explode."

He glanced at his watch. "Well, there are still ten minutes left. Even if the tire doesn't burst, we have to find a way to delay them. In ten minutes, even if the zombies don't eat them, they will die anyway."

Xiao Ba nodded, raised his sniper rifle, and locked onto the RV's tires.

"Ah--" Xiao Ba threw away the gun and fell to the ground, holding his head and wailing in pain.

The third and eldest brother immediately looked around vigilantly.

White mist filled the air around them, freezing cold. The mist slowly condensed into needles as thick as hair, with the sharp tips pointing at them.

Fan Xin stepped on the stairs made of ice and walked up the iron tower step by step.

Sui Jing followed her up, looked around, and gave the three people a gentle and polite smile.

Fan Xin said calmly, "Sorry to bother you."

These three people are very young, only about twenty years old, and should still be in school before the end of the world.

When she entered Jingzhong City and saw the situation in the square, she thought of what she had heard in her previous life.

It is said that at the beginning of the apocalypse, explosions occurred in many cities. The explosions were loud and the smoke and dust billowed, and could be heard and seen from far away.

There were eight people who set off these explosions, but only one survived.

It was from the last person's mouth that everyone knew what happened behind the explosion.

These eight people are students from a university in the county next to Jingzhong City, and they are all roommates. They are all doomsday mysteries.

During the time when doomsday literature and doomsday TV movies were popular, there were rumors that the end of the world was about to come. Of course, the time came but the end of the world did not come.

However, these doomsday mystery lovers do not think that it is a rumor. They think that the doomsday has not come simply because the time has not come yet.

When they were in college, these people lived in the same dormitory. Since they were all fascinated by the doomsday, they often exchanged information about the doomsday and collected resources.

After the end of the world, they became even more fanatical.

Based on novels and TV shows, they speculated that there might be crystal cores in the zombies' brains, so at the beginning of the apocalypse, they killed a zombie, split open the zombie's head, and found the crystal core.

After several experiments, they found the correct way to use the crystal core and quickly activated their superpowers.

But their abilities were not as strong as they imagined, which made them very frustrated. Their crazy desire to become stronger made them target the crystal cores in the zombies' brains.

The zombies' crystal cores can indeed make them stronger, but the progress is not as fast as they imagined. The desire to become stronger makes them crazy, and they finally come up with the idea of ​​using humans to attract zombies.

Fan Xin looked at the three people expressionlessly. The supernatural powers around them were fluctuating greatly, which meant that they were still very weak.

Judging from the time, Alarm City should be the first place they used to attract zombies.

The eldest brother narrowed his eyes, his whole body turned into sand, and he rolled up the third brother and the eighth brother, and quickly rushed down along the iron tower.

"This ability is not bad." Sui Jing commented.

Fan Xin curled his lips and said, "That's right. I wonder what will happen if we separate his body after he turns to sand."

Sui Jing tilted his head and said with a smile: "I don't know, I'm a little curious too. How about giving it a try?"

Seeing Sui Jing's eager expression, Fan Xin lifted her foot and walked down the stairs she had just climbed. "Forget it, I don't really like blood."

Just as the eldest and his two companions were about to touch the ground, a vine suddenly rose up from all around them and rolled the third and eighth brothers out from the eldest brother's body.

The boss was shocked and didn't bother to save people. He turned around and ran away.

The ice condensed into a transparent cover, covering him tightly.

The boss hit his head on the glass cover, his body was shattered and collapsed into a pile of sand.

When Fan Xin slowly walked down, the boss had already returned to his human form. He looked unhappy and squinted his eyes at Fan Xin: "What do you want to do?"

Fan Xin tilted her head: "I should be the one asking you this."

She looked towards the square. Even standing on the ground, she could see the piles of corpses. "What are your thoughts after killing so many people?"

The boss sat in the glass case and said, "Thoughts? Isn't that what the apocalypse is all about? Survival of the fittest. They died because they couldn't adapt to this world. They deserved it."

Fan Xin stared at the eldest brother for a few seconds, then looked at the third brother who was wrapped up in the vines and hung high up: "What about you?"

The third brother stared at Fan Xin gloomily: "I advise you to let us go immediately, otherwise you will suffer the consequences."

Fan Xin looked at Xiao Ba.

Xiao Ba shrank his neck when Fan Xin looked at him. He moved, but his body was tightly wrapped in vines, making him unable to move. He lowered his head in frustration: "I just want to become stronger..."

Fan Xin smiled: "Just want to become stronger? So, you can do anything to become stronger?"

Xiao Ba's expression froze, and he stammered twice, unable to speak.

"Let's go." Fan Xin took the lead and walked in front. The vines tactfully rolled up the glass cover and followed behind Fan Xin.

Sui Jing clicked his tongue. He just couldn't stand the vine at all. He felt that the vine was as annoying as its owner.

The vines trembled.

The eldest brother looked in the direction and said in a fearful voice: "Where are you taking us?"

The third brother's eyes widened: "No, we can't go there. There's a bomb over there. It's going to explode soon. If we go over there, we'll all die!"

Fan Xin turned a deaf ear to their shouts and continued to lead them towards the square.

In the square, corpses piled up like mountains, but the densely packed zombies seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, not a single one was left.

The third brother looked at the empty square in surprise. He had seen many zombies gathered here before, but now there was not a single one left.

"How is that possible?" The boss widened his eyes.

Xiao Ba opened his mouth and asked, "Where have all the zombies gone?"

The vines wrapped around them, forcing them to kneel on the ground. The third and eighth brothers knelt at the edge of the square, their heads pressed hard against the ground by the vines.

Fan Xin walked up to them and squatted down: "There are five more people, where are they?"

The third brother's eyes were burning with rage. He wanted to raise his head but couldn't. The vine was extremely strong. Every time he moved slightly, its strength increased a little, as if it wanted to press his head to sleep.

Seeing that they didn't answer, Fan Xin stopped talking and waved his hand. The vines quickly penetrated the ice cover, encircled the boss's body, and forced him to kneel on the ground.

The boss immediately repeated his old trick, trying to turn his body into sand and escape through the hole created by the vines.

Before he could react, his head buzzed as if it had been hit hard by something. His eyes became dull and two streams of bright red blood flowed from under his nose.

Fan Xin took out a blood collection needle and handed it to Sui Jing: "Draw it."

Sui Jing reached out and took the blood collection needle, smiling brightly: "As you wish."

He walked over to the people kneeling at the edge of the square and drew blood from them one by one. After drawing 1000ml from each person, he stepped back.

Ice mist swirled around the three people, and the ice climbed up their bodies little by little, freezing them and keeping them in a kneeling position of repentance.

Fan Xin looked up at the gloomy sky. It was getting dark. "Let's go."

There are no living people in Jingzhong City, and she doesn’t know where the remaining five people are. She can only wait and see if she can meet them in the future.

After all, she didn't know which cities had exploded in her previous life.

Outside the woods outside the alarm city.

A white RV was parked at the edge of the woods.

Tang Su was sitting in the driver's seat. Zombies kept passing by the car. They returned to where they came from. They were well-behaved and quiet, without making any sound.

Kong Hongxi woke up from her coma for the fifth time. Seeing Zhang Huai's face, she reached out and grabbed his chopped knife and shouted angrily, "Can you please stop? You're almost cutting my neck off!"

Zhang Huai said expressionlessly, "It's not broken."

Kong Hongxi's beautiful eyes glared, and she gnashed her teeth in anger: "Did I raid your house or dig up your ancestral grave? Is it necessary for you to treat me like this?"

Zhang Huai raised his other hand and struck her neck.

Kong Hongxi: "..."

Before she fainted, she widened her eyes and uttered the last word: "Fuck!"

Tang Ruan, who came down from the second floor, glanced at them, turned around and sat back in his seat.

Tang Rui followed her timidly, her eyes red, tightly grasping the corner of Tang Ruan's clothes, her lips tightly pursed.

Baoer had been secretly watching Zhang Huai and the others. Now she shrank into Bai Wenrou's arms and touched her neck: "Sister, that brother is so fierce."

Bai Wenrou nodded secretly: "Yeah."

Not only was he fierce, but he was also scary. She didn't even dare to meet Zhang Huai's gaze. She felt that this man was even more terrifying than Sui Jing.
