Level up Zombie

Chapter 88 Code 4



In the first place, Zain wasn\'t sure if he would ever be able to talk to this blonde woman. He was pretty sure that she perhaps wouldn\'t even remember him because their meeting was more of a short encounter, but there were two things that he could mention that might catch her attention if he were to meet her again.

Firstly, the pendant around his neck. She must have dropped it by mistake and realised later that it was missing, and the second was the System. More than anything, Zain thought, perhaps this person had the answer to his Zombie system and maybe to all of the Zombies around them today.

While Zain was musing over his thoughts, Shark dropped his shield, removed the weapons on his body to show he was no longer a threat, and kept his hands raised as Zain pointed the gun at him.

"Alright, if you really think talking to them will make any of a difference, then let\'s go," Shark replied, walking over to the stage where Kun was standing still. Following behind was Zain, as he ensured his two guards followed him.

The others didn\'t even attempt to move, although Zain no longer had his guns pointed at them. They just knew if they tried anything, it would only worsen the situation. Not to mention they weren\'t even sure if they could take on Skittle and Cobra in the first place.

"I just want to warn you," Shark said as he walked up front. "They might not even speak to you if you ask them to. There\'s no reason for them too."

"You let me worry about that. I have my ways." Zain replied.

Eventually, he told Kun to enter the room first. Then after that, Shark and Zain followed him. Finally, both Skittle and Cobra entered as well, and Zain told Kun to sit by the door.

"Kun, I want to thank you for telling me the truth, but if we\'re going to live in this world, we can\'t just follow blind orders," Zain explained. "Think, how many times would you have lost your life already if you didn\'t run into me? Unfortunately, the people on the radio don\'t care about you, and I\'m only telling you this because I like you."

Kun didn\'t reply. Mainly because he didn\'t really know what to say.

\'Zain…I know you\'re not coming from a bad place, but what you\'re doing now is a little crazy.\' Kun thought.

While pointing his gun but staying a safe distance away so Shark couldn\'t do anything, Zain nudged it at the latter, ordering him to do his thing.

The latter walked in front of the radio, moved some of the dials around, and some static noise began to pop out. Then, picking up the small radio speaker, Shark paused before he said anything.

"This is Agent 12. I have a code 4, I repeat, code 4!" Shark shouted, and immediately after that, he threw out his other hand, hitting the radio. The punch sent the radio flying across the room, and it crashed into the wall, breaking into pieces.

Immediately, Zain moved the gun down away from Shark\'s head and pointed it at his legs.

"Zain, no!" Kun shouted, charging forward, but when Cobra and Skittle had entered the room, they were set on protect mode. Skittle was the first to act, pushing Kun away. It was a powerful push that made him fall through the door since the previous scuffle had already broken it earlier.

The next second, Kun heard a loud bang. In the next moment, he saw Shark fall to the floor while clutching his knee. He wasn\'t hurt, but it had caused the latter\'s leg to have a strange reaction.

"The next one goes in your head," Zain said, with his finger on the trigger. "Why did you do that, and what is code four? And don\'t you dare try to feed any bull crap."

Zain was a bit disappointed in himself. He was a bit foolish in the situation and didn\'t think Shark would act like so. Now the only lead he had was gone like that.

"Code 4 is what they instructed us to say if circumstances put us in a situation like this one if someone took us hostage." Shark replied, "They instructed us to break the radio as well if this was to occur."

Clicking his tongue, Zain felt like this banter wouldn\'t get anywhere. Because, for one, he had no clue if Shark was telling the truth, and if he was, he didn\'t know how the other side would act.

Somehow they were able to make Shark so loyal without telling him anything.

\'Shark probably doesn\'t know where the Reborn base of operations is, and he probably may not even know what Code 4 actually means. Will a group of people come here and take out everyone here, or is it something else?\'

In the end, Zain had made up his mind. He went over to the trays and grabbed the rest of the crystals, placing them into one of his pockets.

"Follow me," Zain replied as he walked to the kitchen at a quick speed.

First, he opened up the fridge and ordered the two zombies to begin eating and unzipping the flesh, Zain then did the same and started eating to restore his energy. And then, he opened up the smaller fridge next to it. All of the brains were stored inside it.

Taking one of them, Zain began to eat that as well. His body capacity had hardly gone down, but that didn\'t matter. He was going to restore his body back to full.

"What are you trying to do?" Shark asked in an aggressive tone, his leg still bleeding from the bullet wound. "Are you trying to kill us, leaving us to die?"

The group had yet to eat the brains they had gotten because Shark had mandated them to eat them on the seventh day to get the maximum time and for them to last longer.

"I got all of these for us in the first place. You wanted me to leave so I can do what I want with them, and besides, I\'m just eating my fill." Zain replied.

Grabbing another of the brains and holding it in his hand, Zain continued to walk while telling Shark to follow him the whole time. Shark\'s legs were working, but he would need to eat food to start the healing process since the others weren\'t like Zain.

When coming out, the others saw Shark limping slightly. The loud bang had made them fear the worst, but they were relieved to see that the former was alive. Going to the weapons floor, Zain picked up his sword and also the empty backpack.

Putting the brain inside and the sword right through the bag so it would get stuck in place and come through the bottom, Zain carried them both on his back.

"You have all been living under a lie, and I don\'t know what will happen to you guys after this. In fact, I doubt that even Shark knows. If you want to follow a person blindly that doesn\'t know what he is doing, then be my guest.

"I\'m not asking any of you to follow me. I\'m not a leader in this world, I\'m a survivor, and right now, I have decided that the best chance of me surviving is leaving this place, so I want you all to think long and hard about that."

After saying those words, Zain left out from the front door without waiting for any response, and it closed behind him. The Reborn group was left speechless. Everything that had transpired was a massive shock to them all.

Eventually, Pink decided to speak.

"Kun…what should we do?" Pink asked.

Hearing this was the first time Shark had begun to self-reflect on himself as he held his head down. The whole time they had asked him for advice, they asked him what the next course of action they needed to do.

The fact that Pink had done this meant he had already lost the entire group\'s trust.

After exiting the Club, Zain wondered what to do now. He walked a bit away from the club, but it was now dark out. Although Shark had perhaps done a lot of things he wouldn\'t have, it was worth it joining the group in the end, especially for the information they had.

After running across from the club, he found a few rundown apartments around two stories tall. After a moment, Zani headed inside, thinking it would be a good place for the night.

\'I doubt they would think I would be staying across the road, but waiting here is also a good move because I can see what they are doing.\' Zain thought.

Setting up his room and laying it out in a certain way, Zain glanced at Cobra and Skittle.

\'I guess it\'s just us again on this journey…\'

When thinking about this, it did make him think about two others, Cody and Kelly.

"I wonder, how are they doing?" Zain thought as he realised his body was getting weaker and slowly starting to drift off. He shook his head for once, but it didn\'t help much.

And since zombies don\'t sleep, Zain could only imagine he was going to that place once again.
