The Pregnant Mommy Survive on Unlimited Supplies-Chapter 282 - 281 Let him personally chop off the head of the garrison under his command?

Chapter 282: 281 Let him personally chop off the head of the garrison under his command?

Zhou Cheng, standing behind the two, was completely stunned.

He had no time to pay attention to the curious little garrison behind him, as he tore a Teleportation Ticket and vanished instantly.

He rushed forward to ask Gong Yi,

"What’s happening? What are all these?"

He said they were zombies.

Gong Yi and Hua Mi did not want to repeat themselves to Zhou Cheng.

Hua Mi frowned at the bloodstains on the ground and said to Gong Yi,

"I’ll handle the zombies. You clean up the bloodstains here."

These zombies were fresh, as could be seen from the color of their bloodstains.

The longer a zombie had survived, the thicker and darker its blood became.

Conversely, the closer the color of the blood was to that of humans, the shorter the time since they had turned into zombies.

All this was observed by Zhou Cheng, who gawked as Hua Mi, heavily pregnant, awkwardly crouched down.

Her hand pressed on a small patch of snow on the ground.

In the blink of an eye, the patch vanished.

In the raging blizzard, a 1-meter high pile of snow disappeared...

Not only that, but the snow under their feet seemed to thin out.

Next, several slow-moving men appeared in the distance, no, zombies.

They lay on the snow, limbs still in the motion of trying to crawl out.

These zombies, in the process of closing in on the living garrison, had accidentally fallen into loose, deep snow.

Without Hua Mi thinning out the layer of snow significantly, they would have continued digging, eventually burying themselves until spring, becoming another calamity.

Zhou Cheng stood frozen, then suddenly snapped to action, lifted his gun, and biubiubiu~ fired at the distant zombies.

They were zombies, not impenetrable fortresses, nor were they known for speed.

Bullets hitting their flesh didn’t cause them pain, but they didn’t die either.

Their bodies only paused momentarily before they continued crawling towards Gong Yi, Hua Mi, and Zhou Cheng.

Zhou Cheng’s mouth hung open, and even Gong Yi slightly furrowed his brow.

This was their first real encounter with zombies, and they had no experience.

Thus, Hua Mi began teaching the two garrison commanders on the spot,

"To completely disable these monsters, you need to pulverize them or blow their heads off; otherwise, it’s no use."

"Their bodies are full of toxins. Once infected, whether you turn into a zombie or a Superpower User, odds are higher you’ll become a zombie."

She briefly explained, leaving the rest for Gong Yi and Zhou Cheng to experience themselves.

After a while, Gong Yi, knitting his brows, asked Hua Mi,

"So killing them is useless? If their dead bodies are not dealt with, leaving them contaminates the environment, and anyone who comes in contact with it is in danger, right?"

Hua Mi raised an eyebrow, her expression somewhat sorrowful,

"So, it’s useless."

Why these zombies appeared, no one knew.

Man-eating "Beasts" had shown up on Xiang D Highway, and the D City supply depot was attacked.

These were completely different places, as far apart as the Heavenly Carriage and Earthly Wheel.

What did this imply? It implied zombies were springing up everywhere.

Not even finding Scorpion Man or killing these dozens of zombies would solve the problem.

It couldn’t be solved.

Zombies were destined to overrun everywhere.

Their teeth carried poison, their nails carried poison; alive, they bit and ate people, and when dead, their flesh fell to the ground.

If touched or ingested, there was a chance of infection.

If not touched, the flesh seeped into the soil, washed into rivers by rainwater, and was eaten by animals.

Animals would then turn into zombie animals.

Zombie animals ate living people, and zombie humans ate living people; any living person not entirely devoured became a new zombie...

So, what could be done?

Gong Yi’s face was stern, Zhou Cheng’s pale as he opened his mouth.

Finally, Zhou Cheng asked with difficulty,

"Then aren’t we going to be wiped out? This is the apocalypse, the apocalypse."

Hua Mi sneered,

"Hasn’t the apocalypse already arrived?"

Perhaps it started with the first earthquake, or perhaps the first time there was a scarcity of resources, or maybe, during some unknown deep night when human genes began to zombify.

The apocalypse had already descended.

"What do we do then?"

Gong Yi looked at Hua Mi and asked in a grave voice.

There had to be a way.

Just like when the earthquake came, the garrison maintained order and the subordinate units desperately dug survivors out of the rubble.

Just like when Jelly Water appeared, the garrison organized to extract it and stored it in huge condoms.

Then, in an instant as Hua Mi passed by, everything vanished.

Just like how they, the garrisons, guarded every city’s combat supply depot with their lives.

...

As long as there was a way, the garrison would be willing to sacrifice their own lives to do it.

So, was there any way to stop the spread of zombies?

To prevent the arrival of the apocalypse?

Hua Mi took a deep breath, stepped forward, and straightened Gong Yi’s collar.

In this tender gesture, her voice was cold,

"The only way is to live well, hope for heavenly luck, and wait for the resources to stabilize while trying to become a Superpower User."

"Because Superpower Users are immune to the zombie toxin."

"But after the zombies, there are still endless Mutant Monsters and Mutant Plants..."

Such a despairing topic, Hua Mi actually didn’t want to discuss it—she felt that this life, compared to her past life’s burdens,

At least the people around her lived not so sorrowfully.

But she worried that if she didn’t speak now, Gong Yi and Zhou Cheng might have expectations too high for the future and wouldn’t be able to handle the disappointment.

The light in Gong Yi’s eyes dimmed bit by bit, finally settling deep in his gaze.

He looked at Hua Mi and shook his head slightly.

It seemed he had a lot to say, but now, he didn’t know how to ask.

However, Zhou Cheng, pale-faced, squatted down and held his head,

"I always thought, just surviving the natural disasters was the end."

"I’ve always believed that..."

The next moment, he was lifted up by Gong Yi.

Gong Yi growled at him,

"Why think so much now? Go and check right now, see if the garrisons under your command are infected."

Especially those at the front-line outposts.

They were the first to encounter zombies and needed to be closely observed.

Those who were bitten, scratched, or even came into contact with zombie blood needed special attention.

Zhou Cheng looked blankly at Gong Yi,

"What, what is this? What if they are infected?"

Gong Yi pursed his lips and said nothing.

So Zhou Cheng looked to Hua Mi with a trace of hope in his eyes, wondering if there was any way to treat them early if they were infected.

Hua Mi, standing behind Gong Yi, said softly,

"Once turned, directly decapitate them."

Completely, chop off the head.

Zhou Cheng’s face turned paler, and he wrenched Gong Yi’s hand away.

Disbelievingly looking at Hua Mi and Gong Yi, he shook his head.

To personally chop off the heads of his own garrison?

He would rather decapitate himself.
