Chapter 115 Zombie Empress (46)

(Lirean Province- Capitol City)

(Outer Region- Valentina's National Mall)

"What? No… that doesn't make any sense…" Eve whispered in shock as she stared at Qin Wei with an expression of disbelief on her face.

The handsome young teenage boy looked exactly the same as she remembered. He had short hair and a lean physique that was slightly on the skinny side.

He wore a simple army uniform, but the most shocking part about his appearance was the fact that he seemed to be completely fine and healthy.

Eve knew that Qin Wei's corpse had been taken back by Subject 001, but she didn't know how he had been brought back to life.

Qin Wei's eyes were just like a normal human's and there was no trace of darkness. Eve opened her mouth to speak but the words refused to come out.

The young boy on the other side of the portal grinned sadistically and then snapped his fingers casually.

The portal instantly collapsed without a trace and once again Eve was left alone in the abandoned mall surrounded by the voices of the monsters slowly rolling towards her.

What the hell?!

Grr…grrr… grrr…

Loud whines and yelps could be heard coming from the mouths of the dogs that were attached to the abominations.

These creatures were massive piles of biomass that were connected to each other via thick chunky pieces of flesh.

Inside the threads one could see thick veins that pulsated and wriggled creepily. Eve growled darkly and prepared to attack the nearest one when she heard a loud voice.

"Look another survivor is over here!" a girl called out.

Fuck!

Not those humans…

Eve quickly took in a deep breath and her pitch-black eyes returned to a normal human-like appearance.

Her claws shrank back to regular sized fingernails, and she clenched her fists tightly.

She heard the sounds of running footsteps and soon the team of survivors arrived while panting slightly.

There were seven of them in total. Five men ranging from the ages of twenty to forty and they all wore messy clothes.

The two females of the group were much better dressed than the men, but Eve could see scars, bruises and wounds on their exposed skin.

"What the hell are those?" the man in front of the group hoarsely spoke as he stared at the moving piles of flesh.

Eve really didn't want to deal with these annoying humans right now, but her mind was still a mess after seeing Qin Wei.

"They… are… mutated… animals" Eve finally spoke out a warning with her voice barely above the volume of a whisper.

Some of the men stared at her and their expressions immediately changed.

Eve's human disguise was incredibly beautiful, and she would put even a professional model to shame with her perfectly crafted facial features.

Despite the chunks of flesh and the fallen debris that stained her clothes, Eve's loveliness shone through all the dirt and filth.

Eve's appearance resembled that of a goddess who descended to the mortal realm.

She could feel the burning gazes on her body, but Eve did not even bother to spare a cursory glance at the men looking at her.

This was not the first time that she had encountered something like this over the last few weeks and it would probably not be the last.

As for the men or women who decided to act on their impulses… well… let's just say that their corpses had long gone cold…

Surprisingly the leader looked at her directly in the eyes and maintained eye contact without gazing at the rest of her body.

He cleared his throat before snapping his fingers. Shards of metal slowly rose up from the floor and surrounded his body in a metallic storm of destruction.

Grr… grr…grrr…

The leader of the group rushed forward towards the nearest monstrosity and held out his palm in the direction of the creature.

The shards of metal flew towards the creature's body and entered its pinkish-red fleshy exterior.

He was soon joined by the rest of the survivors who unleashed their own abilities.

One of the girls screamed and her voice created a shockwave which blew some of the monsters against the nearest wall.

Two of the men who had been staring lustfully at Eve nodded at each other before rushing over and punching the abominations using only their fists.

Enhanced strength…

Eve watched curiously as the men struggled the lift up the massive piles of biomass and shook her head in disappointment.

They were weak…

The zombie empress let out a heavy sigh and then walked forward and easily tore apart the nearest abomination using her hands.

Eve could feel her power violently surge inside her body, but she fought down the addicting feeling that was tempting her to lose control.

Not this time… not this time…

The zombie empress growled and tore apart the monsters like a savage beast unchained from the depths of hell.

Her ferocity startled the group of survivors who slowly backed away from the madwoman who was the strongest ability user that they had ever seen.

The men who had been staring at her before immediately put away their dark thoughts as they watched Eve use her fingers to rip open one of the dogs' jaws and pull out its teeth.

The battle only lasted for ten minutes before the last monster slumped to the ground motionless without a trace of breath left in tis body.

"Thanks for the help…" Eve politely spoke as she walked away without looking at the group.

"Wait! Do you want to join us?" the leader suddenly asked.

Eve slowly turned around and her gaze lingered on the two girls in the group.

She looked at the bruises on their bodies and a cold expression flashed across her face.

"We are the strongest team in Tianjin base… have you heard about Tianjin base? It is run by an ex-police officer who has a terrifying ability… he…" the leader continued to speak.

Eve's face was completely expressionless as the man continued to drone on and on about the benefits of joining his group.

The entire time she saw how the girls would slightly tremble as the other men in the group walked near them.

Eve did not know why she was feeling soft-hearted since she usually could not care less about humans but maybe it was because Qin Lan was on her mind.

Those girls… their faces were interchangeable with the frightened teens in the supermarket where she had met Qin Lan's brother and his classmates for the first time.

Eve waited until the leader had finished giving his speech before picking up a small rock that was near her foot.

There was a tense moment of silence as the survivors could not understand why she had done such a strange action.

"Hey…" Eve spoke quietly and looked directly at the two women.

"Are you willing?"

Her words lingered in the air and that simple question caused the facial expressions on the two women's faces to change.

It was an unremarkable question and yet its meaning was understood by the two women and some of the men who saw through Eve's hidden meaning.

"No…no…" one of the women stammered fearfully as her body tensed up.

The leader opened his mouth to rebuke her statement, but his words would never leave his throat.

Eve threw the rock with so much force that it slammed into the leader's forehead and instantly killed him.

The other men had barely any time to react as Eve's figure blurred and then vanished from the spot.

Eve reappeared behind them, and her hands shot forward to penetrate the chests of the two ability users.

She ripped out their still beating hearts and tossed them aside with callous indifference. It was as though she was murdering ants rather than living breathing humans.

Eve's eyes shifted to a pitch- black colour and the heavy aura of death surrounded the remaining men.

The zombie empress could feel the power coursing through her body…

It was time to kill.
