Chapter 324 From then on, there was no more arrogance from the king.
After Han Shuo silently retreated from his spot, Wang Bahu, with red eyes and burning with rage, was about to rush towards the zombie king.
"Die! Die! Die..."
He screamed wildly as he raised his large machete and slashed at the zombie king.
The zombie king's gaze shifted from Wang Zhen's corpse to Wang Bahu.
He frowned, clearly looking somewhat impatient.
Now, his temperament is completely different from before.
He didn't actually experience much emotional fluctuation after killing his old friend with his own hands.
However, when he saw that some reptiles, unaware of their own mortality, dared to rush towards him, he became somewhat angry.
Although he knew from Wang Zhen's dying words that this person was Wang Zhen's most beloved younger brother.
But what does this have to do with him?
From the day he became the king of all infected creatures, he did not allow any insignificant person to offend him.
In his eyes, Wang Bahu, though seemingly stronger, was no different from an ordinary ant.
How could he tolerate such behavior from such ants?
And there it was!
"snort!"
The zombie king snorted angrily, then raised his right foot and kicked forward without any mercy.
Wang Bahu only saw a flash before his eyes, and before his large cleaver could fall, he was struck by a tremendous force.
"Clang!"
The sound of bones breaking rang out.
The next second, he felt a sharp pain in his body, as if his insides were churning, and he involuntarily let out a scream.
"ah--!"
Wang Bahu, who had been kicked away, continued to cough up blood in mid-air.
The gap between the two sides was simply too great. As a genetically evolved human at level 5, he couldn't even withstand a kick from the zombie king.
...
After kicking the ant, the Zombie King didn't even glance at it. He tugged at the chain with his right hand, dragging his huge scythe straight into the underground research institute.
He's wasted too much time here...
However, he stopped again after taking only a few steps, because out of the corner of his eye, he saw the ant tremblingly get up from the spot again.
"Go, go die, go die..."
Despite being severely injured, Wang Bahu still clung to his unwavering belief, muttering those two words incoherently.
"Huh? He's not dead?"
The Zombie King let out a soft "hmm," somewhat surprised.
It should be noted that he did not hold back in this kick; with his terrifying strength, more than 99% of humans would be instantly killed by him.
Even among the many genetically modified humans, very few could withstand his kick.
...
"This ant is more formidable than I imagined."
The Zombie King muttered to himself.
As he watched Wang Bahu stagger and try to charge forward again, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
"Hmm... he's not bad at all."
He muttered to himself, first handing the chain in his right hand to the crooked brother behind him, then a slight smile appeared on his lips.
The next second, the zombie king disappeared from his spot. This time, he took the initiative and rushed in front of Wang Bahu in the blink of an eye.
"Thump!"
He grabbed Wang Bahu's face with his right hand and forced him to the ground.
Then, he stretched out a finger and quickly poked Wang Bahu's body.
"Ah—! Ah—! Ah…"
The recurring pains throughout his body caused Wang Bahu to scream in agony once again.
At this point, he was completely powerless to resist.
His consciousness gradually faded, his body became a bloody mess, and his screams grew fainter and fainter...
A few seconds later, all he could do was groan softly.
At this moment, Wang Bahu's image was extremely pitiful.
Who would have thought that the dying man before us was actually Wang Bahu, who was once arrogant and domineering in the underground research institute?
...
The zombie king clearly held back, not killing the ants beneath him directly.
He looked at Wang Bahu, who was completely unable to move at the moment, and finally stopped.
He placed one foot on its chest, looking down at the ant beneath his feet with a superior posture.
Then, he pulled a bottle containing a cloudy liquid from his pocket...
The next moment, without the slightest hesitation, the Zombie King bent down and pried open Wang Bahu's mouth, then poured some of the turbid liquid from the bottle into him.
Then, he withdrew his gaze, turned around, took the iron chain from Wai Di's hand, and continued walking forward, pulling the sickle.
"My dog, I'm very satisfied with what you did this time."
"Consider this half-corpse man my first gift to you..."
As soon as the voice fell, all the zombie creatures present began to move again.
They continued to follow the zombie king deeper into the underground research institute.
As if receiving some kind of command, they instinctively avoided Wang Zhen's unyielding corpse.
This was the final act of dignity the Zombie King left for his old friend.
...
After the zombie king gradually disappeared into the distance, Wai-di, who was still standing there, finally realized what had happened.
He was instantly overjoyed, and with a fanatical expression on his face, he knelt down on the ground.
He kept worshipping in the direction the zombie king had left, shouting loudly.
"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master..."
The next second, he quickly got up from the ground and ran straight towards Wang Bahu.
He first turned his head to look at the spot where his arm had been severed, and then when he turned his gaze to Wang Bahu at his feet, he revealed an extremely maniacal smile and laughed wildly.
"Hahahaha! Hahahaha..."
...
As he laughed maniacally, Wang Bahu, who was lying on the ground, began to convulse violently.
As the turbid fluid that had entered his abdomen slowly seeped into his blood vessels, his blood gradually changed color...
The turbid liquid that the zombie king forced down his throat was unpurified and contained the toxins of the Ice Crystal Virus.
Although he had previously received an inhibitor developed by Yue Zongyang, the inhibitor was no longer effective in combating the toxin.
Because the ice crystal virus in the turbid liquid is not quite the same as the ice crystal virus in the zombies.
There are class differences between the two.
Although they are the same virus, they have different ways of contact.
Simply put, it's the difference between the first contact and subsequent contacts.
When the ice crystal virus first enters the human body, it is at the point when the toxin is at its most potent.
After it turns humans into zombies, the toxins remaining in their bodies will be reduced.
During this period, if a survivor is infected by a zombie again, the toxins that invade will be much weaker. In this case, it is equivalent to the survivor having a second contact with the Ice Crystal Virus.
The inhibitor developed by Yue Zongyang can provide immunity to the weakened toxins of the Ice Crystal Virus, but it cannot provide immunity to the toxins of the Ice Crystal Virus in its initial, most virulent stage...
That is why Wang Bahu, as the first person to come into contact with the Ice Crystal Virus, is experiencing gradual changes in his body...
...
A few minutes later, Wang Bahu's body suddenly stopped convulsing, and his eyes became blank.
The next second, he dazedly got up from the ground and slowly opened his mouth.
A weak voice came from his mouth.
"Blood, flesh, I want it, I want it..."
At this moment, although his head was like a human's, his body had completely transformed into the appearance of a zombie.
At this moment, although he had the face of a domineering king, he was no longer the domineering king he once was...
He had become a half-corpse!
