Chapter 3522 Speeding Train



As the train left the city that had turned into hell, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but... things did not end there. Soon, Fang Zheng called Sifang Chuan Changpu over and assigned her a task.

"Eh? Statistics?"

"That's right. Give me a list of everyone's names, genders, and family relationships. Do it now."

Fang Zheng leaned back in his chair and spoke while drinking his coffee.

"This matter is originally yours. Is there any problem if you do it now?"

"Of course not."

Sifang Chuan Changpu was completely confused by Fang Zheng's request. She had no idea why he wanted to do this. Although she was the daughter of the city lord, to be honest, Sifang Chuan Changpu had never been involved in government administration, so she didn't know what to do. Now that Fang Zheng had given the order, although she was a little confused, she nodded and did it.

It turned out that Sifang Chuanchangpu's identity was quite influential among the refugees. It didn't take her too much time to count all the people, and then she respectfully handed the list to Fang Zheng.

"Yeah, very good."

Fang Zheng glanced at the list of names and nodded.

"Then prepare to rearrange their positions in a moment."

"Eh? Why…"

"Think for yourself, young lady."

Fang Zheng shook his head helplessly and closed the name list in his hand.

"You are not a child anymore, you should think about these things yourself..."

“Boom boom boom!!!”

However, before Fang Zheng could finish his words, there was a knock on the door. Fang Zheng snapped his fingers helplessly, and then Banjiu Shayue walked forward and opened the cabin door, followed by a figure rushing in.

"Lord Acorus! There is a crazy corpse on this Juncheng!!"

"Why?!"

Upon hearing the other party's report, Shifangchuan Ayame and her attendants were all shocked, and the man rushed directly to Fang Zheng and glared at him.

"Why do you want to lock up so many crazy corpses in Juncheng!"

"Um?"

Fang Zheng looked at the guy in front of him who was talking nonsense, raised his eyebrows, and found that he was the idiot technician who had spoken nonsense before.

"Don't play dumb, Wuming has already sensed it! There are a lot of crazy corpses in the rear compartment of your Juncheng, right, Wuming!"

As he spoke, the young technician turned his head and looked behind him. He saw a petite girl standing at the cabin door and nodded solemnly.

"Lord Kasugano? Is this true?"

At this moment, Sifang Chuanchangpu also came back to his senses and looked at Fang Zheng in surprise, while Fang Zheng nodded.

"Yeah, of course I didn't just turn them off casually, they are quite useful."

"it works?"

After hearing Fang Zheng's answer, everyone was confused. What use was there for something as scary as a crazy corpse?

Looking at the puzzled looks of the crowd, Fang Zheng just chuckled and stood up.

"If you want to see it, I'll take you there."

Soon, under the leadership of Fang Zheng, the group arrived at the carriage at the end, then Fang Zheng opened the door and led everyone in. When they saw the scene inside, everyone was stunned.

“Boom boom boom…!!!”

Amid the deafening mechanical sounds and the illumination of the lights, everyone could see that the carriage in front of them had turned into a huge iron cage. On one side of the iron cage was a basin of blood, and on the other side were hundreds of crazy corpses. They were divided into rows by iron bars, running madly towards the blood behind the cage, but everyone seemed to be marking time. Looking closely, it was discovered that these crazy corpses were locked in huge iron wheels, and as they ran, these round iron wheels were also spinning rapidly...

"Uh... Kasugano-sama? What are you doing?"

Before entering here, everyone made many associations, such as the crazy corpses here were put in an experiment, or they were locked up for research... No one expected that these crazy corpses would be put in iron wheels and run in circles...

"This is the power source of this armored train. How about it? Isn't it interesting?"

"Wait? Are you saying that this Juncheng is moved by these crazy corpses? This... How is this possible?"

Looking at the crazy zombies running desperately in front of him, the young technician was confused.

"Hahaha, I also find it interesting. I was just playing around at first, but I didn't expect it to be so useful. Through these motors, the zombies can convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, and then use the stored electrical energy to drive the train... To be honest, I never thought it would actually work. These zombies really don't get tired... Anyway, since they can run, we shouldn't waste their energy."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng carefully looked at the zombies inside - well, they have been running for several days, but they don't seem to be tired at all. Could it be that these zombies are really indestructible perpetual motion machines? Logically speaking, even if the power of these zombies is really endless, their bodies can't support such a long period of intense exercise. At least they should be worn out, but these zombies don't seem to have this problem at all.

What a mystery...

Forget it. After all, zombies are not scientific. Basically, even if zombies take over the whole world, they should be completely wiped out in one or two years. Even if the zombies are strong enough to knock down elephants with their bare hands, they can't deal with viruses and bacteria. The wounds will rot and deteriorate, and they will definitely be corroded and turned into bones.

Of course, if one can still move after turning into skeletons, then that is the scope of the necromancer.

So think carefully, the fact that zombies in many zombie movies are still alive and kicking after occupying the world for decades and can run 100 meters in 9.8 seconds is unscientific. It would be fine if you said that zombies have strong self-healing ability, but most of the zombies are covered with wounds and torn to pieces, and in this case, they don't have maggots or rot... It's really strange.

In this situation, let alone decades, I'm afraid that in a few years the body will turn into a pile of bones.

However, the zombies in this world seem to have appeared due to some kind of magical effect, so it is not surprising.

After showing everyone around, the others were silent. If Fang Zheng had done some bloody research, they would have had something to say, but they didn't expect that the other party would actually lock up the crazy corpse and make it run to generate electricity. This operation completely frustrates everyone, and they can only leave helplessly...

However, shortly after everyone left, they were blocked by a group of elderly people.

"Lord Ayame!"

Seeing everyone appear, a servant also ran over hurriedly.

"They asked us to stop Juncheng, but they refused to listen..."

"Why?"

Hearing the servant's words, Sifang Chuanchangpu was stunned for a moment, while Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows. The old men just sat in front of Sifang Chuanchangpu and spoke.

"Please stop the car! We want to have a funeral!"

“Yes, we want to pray for our family!”

"If we get any further away, our prayers won't reach them!! Do you want our grandson to become a wandering ghost?!"

"this……"

Faced with everyone's pleas, Sifangchuan Acorus looked bewildered. She subconsciously looked at Fang Zheng, but the latter just shrugged his shoulders.

"Sure, no problem."

"Hey? Is this really possible? Lord Kasugano?"

"It's human nature to pay tribute to one's family, and... this is just right."

"???"

Although he didn't know what Fang was talking about, it wasn't a bad thing since the other party agreed. So he passed the Sichuan calamus to the old people, and the latter turned around and left happily.

Soon, the armored train stopped near an open space. After making sure that there were no zombies nearby, people got off the train and began to prepare for the funeral and ceremony.

The ceremony was simple. A bonfire was placed in the center of the open space, and then things like talismans were placed around it. Some people were responsible for chanting spells to appease the dead souls, while others knelt on the ground and prayed outside.

At this moment, Fang Zheng walked up to Sifang Chuan Changpu and handed him a name list.

"Let them get on the bus in the order listed above later."

"Why?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Sifang Chuan Changpu hurriedly took the name list and looked through it, then her expression changed slightly.

"Do you want to redistribute everyone?"

"That's right. Single women, children without parents, and the elderly live in the front carriages, families live in the middle carriages, and single men live in the back carriages. It just so happens that we've already done the survey, so we can just divide it up according to that."

"Lord Kasugano, is this why you asked me to investigate?"

"nonsense."

Looking at Sifangchuan Acorus, Fang Zheng rolled his eyes.

"If it wasn't for this, why would I waste all this time? And let them scream here? Anyway, I'm leaving it to you. Is that ok?"

"I……"

Sifangchuan Acorus originally wanted to refuse, but when she remembered the scene where Fang Zheng coldly killed the refugees who tried to force their way onto Juncheng, she immediately swallowed the words on her lips.

"I... no problem, I'll do it!"

"Very good... huh? What's that little girl doing?"

The memorial service was over, and everyone gathered in small circles, enjoying the rare tranquility. At this moment, Fang Zheng saw a black-haired girl approaching. She kept looking around, as if she was looking for something. If Fang Zheng remembered correctly, it seemed that she was the one who sensed the swarm of crazy zombies in the carriage before?

"Ah, it's Miss Nobody!"

Seeing the girl, Sifang Chuanchangpu hurriedly introduced her to Fang Zheng.

"Although she is young, she is very skilled. The reason why we were able to reach your Jun City safely is because she eliminated the nearby crazy corpses by herself. Otherwise..."

"Oh? That's interesting."

After hearing Sifang Chuan Acorus' introduction, Fang Zheng raised the corner of his mouth slightly out of curiosity, and then walked towards the other party.

"Hey, little girl."

"Ah, big brother, hello."

Seeing Fang Zheng coming over, Wuming turned around and greeted him cheerfully.

"Hello, what are you looking for? There's no candy around here."

"Hmm? No, I sense the presence of a mad corpse..."

"Isn't it in the carriage?"

"It's not those. I always feel that it should be around here..."

As he spoke, Wuming looked around in confusion. At this moment...

"Ms. Naixin! What's wrong with you?!"

“Aaaaaaaaaah!!!”

Along with screams and cries, suddenly, there was an explosion not far away. The two turned their heads and saw a black-haired woman lying on the ground, twitching constantly. On her body, one could see the spreading iron-blue color and shining blood lines.

"Yes, it's a crazy corpse!"

"She's going to turn into a crazy corpse!!!"

Seeing this scene, the people around screamed at once, and Wuming gritted her teeth. Then she reached out and untied the blue ribbon around her neck, leaned forward and suddenly ran forward, while taking two long swords from the waists of the two warriors.

“Wait a minute, she…!!”

Seeing this, the girl next to her shouted hastily, but Wuming turned a deaf ear to her. She rushed straight to the girl and stabbed her chest with the long knife in her hand...

"I told you to wait a minute."

However, the next moment, Wuming's momentum came to an abrupt halt. Fang Zheng reached out and grabbed her collar, lifting her up like a kitten.

“You, what are you doing?”

Wuming seemed to have never expected that he could be stopped by someone. He turned his head in surprise and looked at Fang Zheng. The latter just shook his head and stared at the woman in front of him. At this moment, the bright red blood was about to spread to her neck, and the woman's eyes began to emit a faint light. It seemed that she was gradually losing the last of her humanity.

"A crazy corpse in the process of transformation? This is a good research material."

Fang Zheng muttered to himself as he stretched out his right hand. Assuming that this zombie transformation was indeed some kind of curse, then...

"Ester!"

Following Fang Zheng's call, the Demon-Slaying Holy Sword appeared in his left hand. Fang Zheng then raised the dagger, aimed at the woman in front of him, and pulled the trigger.

"Bang!!"

As the gunshots rang out, the next moment, the woman fell to the ground again. Seeing this scene, the people around her stood there, motionless. They stared at the woman lying on the ground in amazement, not knowing what to say for a moment.

But... at this moment, they suddenly discovered that the woman's body was moving again!

"Cough! Cough cough!!!"

The woman lying on the ground coughed loudly and spat out several mouthfuls of black blood. Then she opened her eyes blankly and looked around.

"I...what's wrong?"

"Why……?!"

Seeing the woman at this moment, whether it was the people around, Wuming who was held in Fang Zheng's hand, or even Sifang Chuan Changpu and others who were waiting behind, all widened their eyes in surprise - at this moment the woman's skin had returned to its original color, and even the red blood line that was supposed to spread had disappeared.

How...how did they do this?!
