Gacha games can't save this bizarre world.

"Hey! Old George, what movie are we playing today?"

"Ha, tonight's showing is a great movie, 'Night of the Living Dead'!"

"I've never heard of this movie before."

"This is an old movie; it was first released in 68. It's a zombie movie, you know what a zombie is?"

"What corpse?"

"Zombies are the dead who come back to life and eat the living. They know no fatigue or fear, only how to eat people, and even guns are useless against them."

"Impossible!" A burly man patted his waist. "There's nothing in this world where even guns don't work!"

Old George glanced at the revolver and stopped arguing. "Okay, you're right. You can kill those undead by shooting them in the head!"

"Hahaha, I knew it! Hurry up, old George, get ready, I can't wait."

The narrator also urged, "That's right, old George, you're getting slower and slower, just like my great-grandmother who's already turned to dust!"

Everyone burst into laughter: the outdoor plaza was filled with a joyful atmosphere!

It's hard to say whether the director who made this film heard about the living dead stories that have been circulating in sub-Saharan Africa for a long time.

The movie premiered soon after. Although it was an old film from more than ten years ago, it pioneered the zombie movie genre and was still very exciting.

The audience was stunned, their attention gripped by the tense and exciting plot.

Meanwhile, the young man selling cream popcorn had mutated. His eyes turned white, his face was covered with festering wounds, and his teeth grew longer, resembling a pair of small guillotines!

At this moment, a couple who were late for their date came to the makeshift tin shack to buy something.

There was no one at the counter. After calling out a few times, they pushed open the slightly ajar warehouse door.

Immediately following a roar, a figure pounced over, knocking the girl down in an instant. It started biting her, tearing off her face skin in a few bites, and then chewing and swallowing it!

The boy panicked for a moment, grabbed a chair from beside the door, and smashed it against the figure's back, shattering the chair. But the figure didn't react at all, continuing to devour his girlfriend!

The boy cursed and picked up other odds and ends and smashed them on the figure's head. After a few hits, he finally attracted the figure's attention. The figure looked up and revealed a face covered in sores!

The zombie suddenly lunged at the boy again.

Once a zombie loses all consciousness, its body loses its subconscious protective mechanisms, and its explosive power and speed far surpass those of a normal person. The boy was tackled almost instantly, and then a gaping mouth loomed large before his eyes…

Among the people watching the movie, a few in the back row heard shouting and cursing coming from a shop not far away.

The group quickly called to their friends and ran towards the store, thinking they had been robbed.

However, when they arrived, they saw a pair of jeans legs kicking incessantly behind the counter.

The strong boy ran over quickly, then suddenly exclaimed, "Oh my God!"

When everyone came over, they discovered that one person was holding another person down and biting them, with bright red blood everywhere!

The group paused for a few seconds, and then two of them went forward to pull at the person who was biting them, but they couldn't budge it at all.

Just then, screams erupted from the crowd watching the movie not far away.

It turns out that the first infected person who bought the popcorn had already contaminated the popcorn with the virus beforehand.

At this point, the men and women who had eaten the popcorn began to react, and several of them, who had reacted most violently, had collapsed to the ground and were convulsing.

Just as someone stepped forward to check, the convulsing person suddenly sprang up, grabbed someone's neck, and bit them, causing blood to spurt out instantly...

This is truly a double success!

There were also more than a dozen people eating popcorn, and these people became the first batch of infected individuals.

By the time Zhao Hao and his companion drove close to Desiva, chaos had broken out there, and gunfire could be heard coming from all directions!

Chapter 356 The Disappearance of Desiwa

"Damn it, get out of here! Drive!" A burly man fired three shots in quick succession from his revolver, blowing the heads off three zombies that lunged at him.

He was the big Texas guy who first argued with old George, the movie projectionist.

I must say, his marksmanship is truly remarkable. He fired three shots in just over a second, headshotting the moving target at a distance of ten meters. You could call him a gun master; he's even won a prize in a shooting competition in Texas.

However, even a skilled cook can't cook without rice; a revolver only has a few bullets.

But there were already more than forty or fifty zombies attacking people on the scene, and even more people who had been bitten, collapsed and convulsed, and were about to mutate or were about to mutate!

There were over four hundred people watching the movie, and it was now in complete chaos.

Those on the periphery are better off; they still have time to run away if they can think of running away immediately instead of standing there in a daze or trying to see what kind of commotion has occurred.

But those inside were in a terrible state. People were jostling, trampling, and biting each other. It was originally a spontaneous gathering, with cars and chairs all in disarray. Now, it suddenly became chaotic, and it was almost impossible to escape.

Within about seven or eight minutes, the movie screening area outside the town had fallen silent.

Less than a hundred people escaped alive, but a few of them were bitten, scratched, or even just touched by zombies and were infected with the zombie virus.

This spiritual virus is extremely dangerous and cannot be treated with ordinary medical common sense.

Depending on each person's spirituality, it can erupt within a few seconds to several hours or even days, first destroying the mental body of ordinary people and completely annihilating them.

However, modifying the body, multiplying and dividing in large numbers within the body, could even lead to physical mutations...

Most of the zombies were no longer here; some followed their instincts to find more living beings to spread "compassion," while others rushed into the town with the fleeing living people.

Soon, gunshots rang out in the town, the sounds of doors and windows being smashed and screams echoing everywhere, and the explosions of various guns completely shattered the silence of the night.

People in America seem to be quite lax about home security; security doors are rare, and you almost never see security grilles on windows.

However, Ame is not a safe place. Many thieves carry things in their hands or break the glass in the door with their elbows and then reach in to open the door and enter the house.

Now, these simple doors and windows are no match for those tireless and fearful zombies that are like wolves and tigers!

In fact, after a brief period of adaptation, those zombies have begun to show certain adaptations and changes.

Some were covered in pustules, walking unsteadily and limping, but their bodies were dripping with a dark green liquid. These were all infected germs!

Any physical attack that hits them will cause them to burst, spraying a five-meter radius with zombie virus pus!

This is an evolution in infectious ability, and also an evolution in combat power.

Its skin had begun to shed, its body hair was falling out, and it looked like a slender, agile monster wearing a leather suit, easily scaling walls and breaking into houses. It could leap onto rooftops three meters high and frequently broke into houses through attic windows.

There's also a power-type zombie evolution path, with arms like two pillars and a gorilla-like physique. Their fists are the size of a pot lid, capable of smashing a door to pieces with a single punch. Any sound they make, or any overly active thoughts or intense spiritual fluctuations, will attract their attention.

Once a powerful zombie notices you, it's basically game over. Even if you hide inside a house, it'll tear it down!

There are also a small number of superpowered beings who move silently and can even stealthily move in the shadows.

There are also auxiliary zombies that can roar out ultrasonic waves to sense the location of targets. They often follow behind the strength-type zombies, acting as the jackals in a wolf-jackal collusion.

If the zombies are just incredibly strong and fast, but lack intelligence, given the amount of firearms in Desiwa Town and the level of weaponry among its residents, it's not certain that they could be completely overrun in a short time.

The problem is that these zombies can evolve, and they evolve very quickly.

In just over an hour, from the first slovenly male zombie selling popcorn to the large-scale emergence of the first wave of mutated zombies, the zombies have all been strengthened and mutated to varying degrees.

Some of these "abnormal species" have even begun a second mutation due to their inherent characteristics or by eating or infecting too many people!

A small number of second-stage mutated zombies are often comparable to superhumans of Iron 2 or 3 stars.

This is not something an ordinary person with a gun can defend against.

And there are just too many of them!

Normally, people mutate into zombies within tens of seconds to minutes after infection, but in Desiwa, several thousand people suddenly appeared in a zombie invasion, and most of them were overrun in a short period of time.

It is now conservatively estimated that there are more than two thousand zombies in the town, and this number is rising rapidly.

If no one intervenes before dawn, there will likely be very few survivors left.

At this moment, Zhao Hao and Xiluo drove back to the town.

They ran into trouble just outside town. Some clever people who had planned to escape by car had blocked the road for various reasons, and they had all turned into zombies, wandering around the crash site. There were about a dozen people and four or five cars.

It is highly likely that the person who was bitten suddenly mutated in the car.

"Damn, what kind of monster is this?" Ciro exclaimed, clearly having never seen "Night of the Living Dead".

"What should we do? Should we stop the car?" He was a little nervous; after all, he wasn't a combatant, he was just a support soldier. And a mood-maker at that!

"There's no need!" Zhao Hao released the steering wheel, reached out the window, and launched a huge flash of light into the air for illumination.

His sudden act of "giving away a piece of his own flesh" startled Xiluo.

Who knew that the steering wheel would turn around by itself and start driving?

The monster jeep drove straight into the fields beside the road, traversing the muddy terrain as if it were flat ground, even knocking down two zombies and crushing them into a pulp.

It also extended several octopus-like tentacles, grabbed and lifted up several other nearby zombies, and slammed them hard to the ground!

After all, this monster jeep is a Black Iron 5-star vehicle, so it still has some combat power.

Xiluo was startled; what on earth was sitting on his bottom?!

Looking at those terrifying octopus tentacles, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

The jeep drove recklessly, crashing into the town. However, it encountered trouble: a combination of a strength-type zombie and an agility-type zombie.

The strength-type zombie had now swelled to over three meters in size, with one exceptionally strong arm, a meter in diameter, shaped like a meat shield, which withstood the jeep's impact—it was only pushed a few meters off the road before blocking the jeep's path.

Meanwhile, another agile zombie, whose arms and legs had mutated into sharp blades, took the opportunity to jump from a nearby telephone pole onto the car roof, stomping around on it with a clattering sound.

Although the Jeep was of very high quality and was not penetrated, the paint on the roof was definitely scratched!

The jeep lashed out from both sides at the blade-legged zombie on the roof. One arm was dodged, but the other arm made the difference, sweeping the blade-legged zombie away and sending it crashing into a shop on the street.

The monster jeep gently touched the scratches on its roof with its tentacles, whimpering pitifully.

When Zhao Hao thought about what it looked like in its original form and then heard the "whimpering" sound now, he felt as if he had been struck by a mental shock.

"Alright, alright, I've avenged you. Your mission ends here, go and rest." Zhao Hao said as he put away the monster jeep.

The jeep vanished in the next instant, and he and Ciro were on the ground. He was standing, while Ciro was sitting.

Ciro: Who am I? Where am I? What happened?

Zhao Hao had been thinking for a long time, because things were getting serious!

It's no longer possible to hide your strength like before; you have to reveal some of it.

However, it is important to consider that powers like the Shadowhound Wangcai cannot be exposed, as they might be associated with the Enderman Raistlin.

His overly powerful physique must not be exposed, lest anyone suspect Kenshiro.
