What is a monster?
Are they zombies with ugly exteriors but warm hearts, or humans with beautiful appearances but monstrous inner lives?
After the female zombie went inside, the others stood at the doorway, looking at the pitch-black interior of the penetration ring, hesitant about whether to go in or not.
Mu Wenxi leaned against the door and said, "Let's wait a while."
A moment later, the female zombie emerged carrying a man. The tall man was curled up in her arms, his short hair obscuring part of his face. His skin appeared normal, unlike that of a zombie. He was fast asleep with his eyes closed.
The female zombie looked down at the man, her expression revealing something that others couldn't quite decipher. Mu Wenxi, however, could sense the love in her eyes, and she figured he was probably her lover.
It's really strange that this woman, after becoming a zombie, not only didn't lose her humanity, but even retained her original memories and didn't forget her lover.
Her lover was imprisoned in a cruel and disgusting place, like a prison, but she found humans who were her adversaries to help her rescue him.
Mu Wenxi was very curious: would her lover accept her half, who had become a zombie, after waking up?
The female zombie made a series of "ah" sounds at Qin Lun, and Qin Lun conveyed her meaning to Mu Wenxi, which was exactly as Mu Wenxi had predicted.
Mu Wenxi turned to the other two and explained, "She said the man in her arms is her lover."
Yuan Jin: "What? It's her lover!"
Even the usually composed Yu Chaoyang showed a surprised expression: "That's unbelievable."
Mu Wenxi checked the time and suggested, "Let's leave here first and make plans after we return to the base camp."
The group nodded and followed the female zombie out. They had thought she would part ways with them, but to their surprise, she continued to follow them.
She showed no reaction to the zombies that the people on the road casually killed.
Back at the base camp, the female zombie looked at the group and suddenly handed the man she was holding to Mu Wenxi.
Qin Lun immediately roared at her, and the female zombie responded.
Mu Wenxi: "What is she trying to do?"
Yu Chaoyang: "What's wrong? Doesn't she want to leave?"
The group quickly came up with an answer.
Mu Wenxi: "She asked us to take in her lover."
Yuan Jin: "I thought she would bring it herself."
The female zombie looked somewhat reluctant.
Mu Wenxi looked at Yu Chaoyang: "You make the decision."
Yu Chaoyang pondered for a moment: "Since he is human, he is our compatriot. We can't just ignore him. Let him stay in our base camp for now."
Yu Chaoyang and Yuan Jin carried the unconscious man into the house.
Mu Wenxi felt a pang of pity for the female zombie: "I don't know how much of your human memory you still retain, but you haven't harmed us along the way. If you need anything, come find us. We will take care of your lover until he wakes up, but we may leave here soon to seek revenge."
The female zombie suddenly let out a shrill scream at Mu Wenxi.
Qin Lun: "She said thank you."
The female zombie took one last look at their house before running away.
Mu Wenxi picked up Qin Lun from the ground and returned to the hall, where Yu Chaoyang and Yuan Jin were sitting on the sofa waiting for them.
The other brothers looked somewhat solemn, as if they already knew the truth.
Mu Wenxi: "How was that person?"
Yu Chaoyang: "He must have been injected with a large amount of sleeping pills and is still unconscious."
The atmosphere was somewhat silent; they seemed to have learned a shocking secret and were unsure how to react.
Mu Wenxi broke the silence first: "The greatest danger in this city has been resolved, and we have also learned part of the truth. I wonder what your plans are after this?"
Yu Chaoyang thought for a moment and then asked, "What are your plans?"
Mu Wenxi: "Now we know who our enemy is, and we will go after him in the end. Before that, we still have some grudges to settle, and we are not strong enough. Xiaoxing's parents are also missing."
Yu Chaoyang nodded: "I understand. We will also leave here, but we don't know where we will go yet. Anyway, we will not stay in this city anymore."
Yuan Jin: "I'm fine with anything, as long as I'm with the captain."
"Me too, we'll go wherever the captain goes."
Mu Wenxi: "It's okay if you separate after you've thought it through. If you're destined to meet again, you will. Besides, we won't be leaving anytime soon. We might have a few more days to clear out some more zombies in this city."
Yu Chaoyang: "By the way, what should we do with that man? We just fed him some food, and he's still unconscious."
Mu Wenxi: "Let's wait until he wakes up. It's his business what decision he makes then."
Back in the room, Mu Wenxi called Xiaoxing and her grandmother over and briefly told them what had happened that day.
"We'll go kill some more zombies later to see if we can level up. When the time is right, we'll leave here."
Xiao Xing was eager to fight zombies and couldn't wait to get started, but Mu Wenxi finally managed to coax him to sleep.
Before going to sleep, Mu Wenxi thought about the female zombie and her lover, and suddenly remembered Qin Lun's parents, asking, "Do you still remember your parents?"
Qin Lun stiffened: "I remember, they were still in B City before I died, I don't know where they are now."
Mu Wenxi: "Do you want to see them?"
Qin Lun: "I do want to, but I can't. I can't let them know that their son has become like this. I'd rather they think I'm dead."
Mu Wenxi: "If you can get better, will you go see them?"
Qin Lun: "Yes."
Mu Wenxi: "It will be alright, believe me."
Qin Lun: "Hmm."
He responded, but he didn't think he could ever become human again; he was already good enough as things were.
After sleeping for a few hours, Mu Wenxi took his grandmother and Xiaoxing to prepare to clear out the zombies. Yu Chaoyang and his brothers split into two groups: one group went out to improve their superpowers, and the other group stayed at the base camp to keep watch and do logistics.
For several days in a row, everyone had good results. It seemed that after learning that the female zombie was no longer their enemy, everyone felt a great weight lifted off their shoulders and were relieved.
Because killing fourth-tier zombies is more than enough for them.
Xiao Xing's superpowers are becoming more and more agile, and he can always escape danger at the last minute, showing a bit of manly spirit at such a young age.
Grandma also practiced her knife skills; despite being in her fifties, she was very agile.
Xiao Xing, carrying a bag of crystal cores, said, "Today's harvest was really good."
Grandma wiped the blood off his face, and Xiaoxing smiled.
Back at base camp, the group found the atmosphere inside the house rather quiet.
Mu Wenxi spotted the man sitting in the corner at a glance.
