Chapter 565 Is the Corpse Master a Wrong Brother?
"A new evil force? It can control not only ordinary zombies, but also half-zombies..."
"However, judging from the situation on the ground, it seems that the other party is unable to control the alien species and the zombified beasts."
Han Shuo thought long and hard, but couldn't come up with a good result.
He temporarily put aside his distracting thoughts and gave an order.
"Let's continue searching and check if there are any survivors!"
"good!"
As soon as the voice fell, the five people each chose a location and began to search carefully, room by room.
...
This exploration took a bit longer than expected.
It took them nearly an hour to finally survey the entire stadium.
The good news is that among the many corpses, they did not find the bodies of Qingyu, Lunen, Lao Wu, Zheng Deliang, Dr. Lin, Yu Qing, and other people they were relatively familiar with.
This made Han Shuo and the others breathe a sigh of relief.
This means that although the stadium was breached by an unknown force, most people were eventually able to evacuate successfully.
The bad news was that they found no survivors in any of the rooms.
Furthermore, a huge number of ordinary survivors died...
...
Sigh~
The fat man next to him sighed, spread his hands, and said.
"What should we do next? We have absolutely no clues."
Han Shuo and the others looked at the mess around them and remained silent for a long time.
But Xiao Zhao was still not giving up, because he found many soldiers' corpses among them.
Han Shuo and the others might not recognize these soldiers, but he did. He knew all the guards from the underground research institute, and the dead were his old comrades-in-arms...
...
Han Shuo turned to look at Xiao Zhao, who was still trying to find clues, but did not disturb him.
He knew that Xiao Zhao was very sad and needed to vent and adjust his emotions slowly.
He sat with the fat man and the others on the open ground of the basketball court, touching a deflated basketball in front of him, feeling a mix of emotions.
"Sigh~ Fifth Brother, everyone... Brother Yao Nan is still alive! You would be so happy if you knew this news."
"Live on, no matter what happens, I hope you will always try your best to live on, and the day we meet again will eventually come."
...
Time passed slowly, and Han Shuo glanced at his watch; it was already around two o'clock in the afternoon.
Before they knew it, they had been in the stadium for two hours.
He got up, dusted himself off, and prepared to call everyone to leave.
They can't afford to waste any more time, or they won't be able to reach the Silver Hair's base today.
...
Just then, Xiao Zhao suddenly ran in from outside the door with a look of surprise.
He was holding the corpse of a cloaked man in his hand, and he shouted loudly.
"Everyone, come quick! I've found a new clue!"
"Huh? He actually found it?"
Han Shuo and the other three immediately perked up and rushed over.
Xiao Zhao threw the corpse on the ground, pointed at the pale face of the person covered in the corpse, and said.
"Look, it has a purplish-blue mark on its face."
As soon as he finished speaking, the four of them quickly looked in the direction he was pointing.
Sure enough, there was a peculiar scar on the face of this corpse-wearing man.
The fat man squatted down and carefully examined it, then called out in confusion.
"Huh? That's strange. These look like whip marks, marks from being whipped! They seem to be old wounds, from some time ago."
"Yes, besides this corpse, I also found some dead half-corpses with similar whip marks on their faces." Xiao Zhao nodded in response.
"That's insane! A half-corpse can't feel pain in its body. Who is it that doesn't let the dead go and even whips them..."
The fat man's last word caught in his throat, and his eyes widened suddenly.
Not only him, but also the others, besides the blond man who was full of doubt, also remembered something they were about to forget when they discovered the whip mark.
...
Han Shuo remembered that shortly after he met Leader Lunn, a group of refugees arrived at the stadium.
At the time, one of the men said that they were camped in a small camp in the wild when they were suddenly attacked by a horde of zombies.
The person in charge of controlling the zombie horde was holding a whip!
"Whip, whip!"
Han Shuo slapped his forehead and quickly recalled that the person with the whip, according to the man's description, looked like a little boy.
At first, he instinctively thought this person was Wai Di!
But when the man added that the little boy wasn't missing an arm, Han Shuo unconsciously abandoned his guess.
However, they had just returned from the old man's place not long ago, and through their recent interactions, Han Shuo gained a better understanding of this nanotechnology.
He knew that this technology was incredibly complex, capable not only of controlling the actions of ordinary zombies but also of doing many things he never expected.
For example, nanorobots could replace Cheng Shenghong's skin with the appearance of a mecha. In that case, regenerating a prosthetic arm wouldn't seem to be a particularly difficult task!
...
"Whip, boy, nanotechnology, half-corpse!"
The moment these four words appeared in Han Shuo's mind at the same time, the fog of confusion before his eyes was instantly blown away.
His expression turned serious, and he shouted quickly.
"Wai Di! It must have been that ungrateful little bastard Wai Di who did it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Fatty and Xiao Zhao also showed expressions of indignation.
They also followed the clues and connected it to Wai-di.
Only someone with a twisted mind like Wai Di would use a whip to lash a half-corpse who feels no pain.
...
Yes, when they first encountered the half-corpse people at the pharmaceutical processing plant, they knew that the half-corpse people still retained a trace of human instincts.
In this situation, as a lackey of the Zombie King, Wai Di is the only half-zombie being that he can control among the many zombified creatures.
No wonder, no wonder the silver-haired man didn't find Wai-di when he used a drone to investigate the zombie king's situation not long ago.
It turns out that he had been dispatched by the Zombie King long ago, leading an army of half-zombies that swept through the land!
Wai Di has been in this country for a while now, but the two sides just haven't met yet...
...
As for why there were so many ordinary zombie hordes around him, it's easy to figure out.
There are quite a few zombie-wearing people left in this country. With Wai-di controlling part of the zombie king's death forces, he should be able to easily capture a few new subordinates.
He can control half-corpse people, while the corpse-wearing people can control ordinary corpse groups. The combination of the two will surely make them even more powerful!
His long-lost left arm was probably a prosthetic arm remanufactured using the nanotechnology of the Corpse-Wearing Man.
When all the intelligence and clues were put together, Han Shuo and the others finally figured it out.
Only this hypothesis is the most plausible and can best explain why so many half-corpses have appeared here.
...
The crowd was shocked. The fat man stared wide-eyed at the whip mark on the face of the half-corpse at his feet and muttered something under his breath.
"Heh, so that perverted corpse handler wasn't the old man's subordinate after all. He was actually that ungrateful little bastard, Wai Di!"
...
