Tense passing! (Seeking red tickets, seeking collection!)
After learning from Zhuang Han that humans in the city were even more terrifying than zombies, Zhou Feng not only didn't feel any tension but instead let out a slight sigh of relief. Compared to zombies, he was more accustomed to dealing with humans because no matter how cunning or powerful they were, as long as they were human, they would have weaknesses. And for Zhou Feng, who was well-versed in the art of killing and human psychology, grasping these weaknesses wasn't difficult. As long as he could grasp his enemy's weakness, even the strongest foe would become his prey.
This is the most terrifying part of his viper fangs!
However, before formally contacting the humans in the city, he still had to make some preparations. Thinking of this, Zhou Feng began to move closer to the city center. The things he needed should be available in places near the city center.
However, as Zhou Feng delved deeper, he finally understood why the brother and sister had chosen to guard the city's edge instead of entering the city center where there was more food. According to official statistics, the total population of Fangcheng Port was only around 900,000, which wasn't a lot for a city. However, the actual population of Fangcheng Port far exceeded this number. With migrant workers, undocumented residents, tourists and others added in, the actual population of Fangcheng Port had almost reached 1.5 million. And even with the most conservative estimates, at least one million civilians among these 1.5 million people were now infected with the virus and had become zombies.
In a city, one million zombies means that every step forward could lead to an encounter with a wave of hundreds or even thousands of zombies. In such a situation, not to mention Zhou Feng who had just merged with the DX-1118 virus, even a company or a battalion of soldiers would be instantly engulfed by the zombie tide.
"Hmm..."
Looking at the dense crowd of people thirty meters away, Zhou Feng took a light breath and then held his breath, slowly backing away towards the house behind him. Like the other two roads, this road was also blocked by the wandering hordes of corpses. In other words, if he wanted to head to the city center, he would either have to charge through the crowd of corpses or take a longer detour. But in this crisis-ridden city, taking a detour might not be a good choice.
"It seems like we can only go through the middle of the house..."
He inserted the Five-seveN into his waist, and with a smooth motion, drew out the handle-less flying dagger that was tucked at his waist. He then turned around and quietly entered a three-story house stained with blood. Compared to the streets filled with zombies, the environment inside the house was more complex and dangerous. However, for Zhou Feng who excelled in stealth and assassination, advancing silently within the house would be much safer than on the streets. At least he wouldn't get surrounded by zombies as long as he was careful, and a few zombies were no match for his abilities.
The house chosen by Zhou Feng is relatively old, and in the suburbs of Fangchenggang City, such old houses with a history of more than 30 or even 50 years are very common, and many are connected together. The distance between each house is at most only a small alley, and as long as you are careful, it's not difficult to pass through from one house to another.
He gently closed the door behind him and began to move forward with extremely slow steps. From the window beside the house, Zhou Feng could see a zombie wandering back and forth on the street. Fortunately, although the zombies had extremely developed hearing and smell, they had almost completely lost their visual ability. They did not discover Zhou Feng, who was only separated from them by a window, and continued to wander and howl in the streets, searching for the breath of the living.
"God loves mercenaries, hopefully there won't be any zombies here..."
Looking at the ground that was almost completely stained with blood and the half arm under the overturned dinner table, Zhou Feng lightly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, carefully stepped over the debris on the ground, and moved forward. Although zombies didn't have much in terms of vision, their sense of smell and hearing were extremely astonishing. If Zhou Feng made too much noise inside the room, he didn't think that just a few windows could block those hungry and bloodthirsty zombies.
The room was dimly lit, and Zhou Feng could only move forward slowly to ensure that he wouldn't kick any objects on the ground. However, just as he crossed the first room and opened the door to enter the second room leading to the street next door, what he saw in front of him suddenly made him slow down his pace, with a vigilant expression, gripping his weapon tightly.
This was a relatively small kitchen, with a wooden door connected to the neighboring wall along its edge. This type of house design is very common in Fangchenggang, and after the owner finishes cooking dinner, they will usually throw out the trash from the side door, and someone will come to clean it up the next day. The door was also the passage for Zhou Feng to leave the room and enter another house. However, this passage was now completely blocked by a slender and weak figure. In front of Zhou Feng, a girl wearing a white dress with bloodstains on her clothes was facing away from her, constantly whimpering and trembling, as if she had suffered extreme fright and grievance.
"What's going on?"
Looking at the little girl who was still whimpering, Zhou Feng couldn't help but furrow his brow. It was really too strange for a little girl to appear in this situation, and he didn't think that a girl who was stupid enough to sit by the door crying could survive the zombie's rampage. Thinking of this, Zhou Feng's right hand moved slightly, holding * upside down, then gently approached the little girl.
It wasn't until he got close to the girl that Zhou Feng confirmed his speculation, for he had never seen anyone whose facial muscles were almost completely gnawed away still manage to survive. At this moment, the girl with a face that was almost all visible white bone seemed to have also caught wind of a living person's scent, slowly turned her head, and let out a low whimpering sound like soft crying, before charging towards Zhou Feng.
Her trachea was completely torn, and her tongue had long since disappeared, so the original zombie's roar in her mouth became a low whimper.
As the zombie rushed towards him, Zhou Feng's right arm, holding the curved knife, lightly moved outward and directly severed the zombie's exposed spine. He then wrapped his arms around the zombie's body and slowly placed it on the ground. Only when he was certain that the zombies outside had not discovered the situation inside did Zhou Feng slightly relax, raising the tip of his knife to pierce the zombie's head, which was still biting and growling despite being separated from its body.
Pfft!
Accompanied by a faint, soft sound, the zombie's skull was directly pierced by a sharp * . Then, the entire room fell into silence again.
After killing the zombie, Zhou Feng slowly covered his right hand over the zombie's body. Then, a root of thorns-covered tentacles reappeared and entered the zombie's body, completely dissolving and absorbing it, before being transported back into Zhou Feng's body. Instantly, that indescribable pleasure filled every nerve in Zhou Feng's body, almost making him moan out loud.
This sense of satisfaction from deep within cells is really wonderful.
After devouring the zombie, Zhou Feng's power was slightly enhanced again, and he also obtained a gene fragment. Then, he gripped the curved knife in his hand tightly again, approached the door to listen for a while, before slowly opening the door and looking out.
As expected, the side door of the house opposite was less than ten meters away from this door. As long as he rushed over and opened the door, he could enter another building. Moreover, what's most fortunate is that there were no zombies in the alley between the two buildings. If everything went smoothly, he would be able to quickly cross this area and find what he was looking for.
Ah!
After confirming there were no zombies in the alley, Zhou Feng immediately opened the door and rushed out. In just one or two seconds, he crossed the alley between the two houses, then picked up * and slashed at the lock on the large door in front of him. With a light sound, the steel-made lock broke into two pieces like rotten wood under the sharp blade, and Zhou Feng immediately opened the door and rushed into the room.
But just as Zhou Feng had rushed into the room, his pupils suddenly constricted and he subconsciously tightened his grip on the weapon in his hand.
Only in the center of that room, four zombies were crouched over a corpse, constantly gnawing. Zhou Feng's sudden entry clearly interrupted these zombies' meal, and they lifted their blood-red eyes, preparing to stand up and pounce on Zhou Feng.
Fresh flesh is exactly what they yearn for.
