Even though he only has a level six certificate.
They also have a good chance of winning against other captains of the same rank.
But in order to get the guild leader to think more highly of me, why not just upgrade to level seven? Everyone else is level six... while I am level seven, wouldn't that prove how awesome I am even more?
After thinking for a moment.
Huang Zhong scanned the area and issued the order: "Everyone, enter the sixteenth floor and kill the zombies as quickly as possible... Don't let any supplies go to waste. I need you to take over this building within half an hour!"
"Yes, Captain Huang."
The other four battalion commanders had no objections.
Each of them led their own squads of a hundred men and began killing zombies floor by floor up the stairs. Although there were a total of ten thousand zombies in the building, there were not many zombies on each floor. With the assistance of the level six squad leaders, the efficiency was very fast.
They also found a lot of supplies along the way.
However, there were fewer food items, such as oden, which had long since gone bad and become moldy. But some of the food from grocery stores had a longer shelf life, so we still collected a small portion.
For example, cured pork, sausage, and salt, sugar, and honey.
There are also some sealed dried corns that have been treated to prevent moisture. Although the corn is dry, it can be stored for several years or even ten years, and it is perfect to eat as a staple food.
Then there are some canned goods.
Some have a shelf life of two, three, five, or six years.
There are also some foods nearing their expiration date, but that doesn't mean they're inedible. Some foods, even if they've just passed their expiration date, won't cause stomach upset if stored properly, let alone in the apocalypse... It's good enough to have something to eat.
Why are you being so particular? Take them all with you.
A little while later...
They looted all twenty floors, leaving only six floors.
There are an average of over three hundred zombies on each floor, so there are probably less than two thousand zombies in total. According to intelligence gathered by our Shadow Legion comrades, there are no Burning Lamp Zombies in this building, so there is no need to worry about being besieged.
When they stepped onto the twenty-first floor.
A strange thing happened: the more than 300 zombies inside seemed to be completely unaware of them, standing motionless in place.
Ahui and Muye were very surprised.
Why don't these zombies attack on their own?
Huang Zhong frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "My sense of smell has failed? Something's not right. This place seems a bit eerie... I'll investigate by myself. The other four captains, be on guard and stay at the entrance of the passage without making any rash moves."
"Once I issue the order to retreat, you must retreat!"
At this time...
Makino suddenly offered his suggestion: "Captain, let me assist you, so we can look out for each other."
"……good."
Huang Zhong agreed.
Makino is, after all, a veteran level six player.
They are not at the same level as those four ordinary level-six captains, so they won't be a hindrance if anything happens.
The two of them weaved through the horde of zombies...
The zombie stood there blankly, motionless.
Black drool dripped from his mouth and onto the floor.
Beep beep! Beep beep!
It made the whole floor feel very eerie.
After passing through the entire twenty-first floor, both of them were unharmed.
Huang Zhong was very puzzled: "What's wrong with these zombies? We walked right past them and they didn't move an inch? Mu Ye... what do you think is wrong?"
Makino said in a low voice, "Based on my personal experience, these zombies may have been affected by some external factors. The zombies are motionless... Perhaps it's related to their mental state, maybe they have some kind of mental problem?"
"Or perhaps it was influenced by the spirit of other zombies? It's a pity I know nothing about this. If Commander Xiahou were here, I would suggest reporting it to Commander-in-Chief Fang and Branch Chairman Wu."
Huang Zhong shook his head: "No... I think we should continue to test the waters."
How to test the waters?
"I want to kill a zombie and see what the reaction will be?"
"Isn't that a bit inappropriate? What if something unexpected happens?"
Huang Zhong said confidently, "What are you afraid of? Have you forgotten that the Shadow Legion has already scouted this place? They said there isn't a single level seven zombie... Since there aren't any level seven zombies, what do we have to be afraid of? Not to mention we still have five hundred elites..."
"You used to be a deputy commander, don't you want to make a great contribution? These zombies must have some unusual secrets. Once we make a small gain, won't we have a chance to get back to our original position?"
"..."
These words were spoken.
Makino, unusually eager, didn't hesitate any longer: "Alright! Let's test it out first, kill a zombie and see... If there's still no reaction, we'll continue our discussion."
"Okay, then I'll kill him."
Huang Zhong randomly selected the one that was closest to him.
This was a very ordinary level four Iron Hand zombie. He pulled out the boning knife from his waist and casually slashed at it.
Click!
Iron Hand's head fell off.
The body fell to the ground with a thud.
The zombies remained unmoved, as if someone had pressed the pause button.
Huang Zhong raised an eyebrow: "No reaction? Try killing another one?"
Makino suggested, "Perhaps we're killing the wrong number? How about we kill two? You take one, I'll take one, and we'll both choose the same type of zombie... How about this Iron-Headed Zombie? What do you think?"
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
The two found the Iron-Headed Zombie.
With a swift stroke, the two iron-headed men were instantly killed.
Just when they thought...
There will still be no response.
Suddenly, the whites of the eyes of the more than three hundred zombies in front of them turned blood red, and their dull pupils began to move.
"Roar!"
"Roar! Roar! Roar! Eat humans!"
The zombies roared.
They pounced on Mu Ye and Huang Zhong.
Huang Zhong was not surprised but delighted: "Haha! Finally, you've started moving. I want to see... what's so strange about you zombies? All members at the entrance, attack and kill the zombies, leave no one alive!"
"Yes, Captain!!"
The members began to fight bravely against the enemy.
The heads of the zombies were chopped off, either burned to death by fireballs or blown apart by water arrows.
But their fighting power...
It was more than twice as strong as before.
Makino said in a low voice, "Something's wrong. Why have these zombies gotten stronger? Berserk mode? But wait, it's not nighttime... What's going on?"
"Don't worry, it's just over three hundred zombies, we'll kill them all!"
Huang Zhong was not intimidated at all.
After all, there are far more of them than the number of zombies on this floor.
But……
Exit of the passageway.
Suddenly, Ahui's anxious voice came through: "Captain, Big Brother, something bad has happened! The zombies on the 22nd floor have come down too... no, all two thousand zombies on the entire floor have been alerted, and the passageway is about to be blocked."
"If we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave!"
