Chapter 1809: Chapter 1802: My Zombie King Friend
When he reached the third floor and passed by the room with the number "308," Ryle suddenly stopped in his tracks. He tilted his head to glance at it, then turned back to look at the henchman leading the way ahead, asking, "Is this my friend’s room?"
Upon hearing this, the henchman’s body trembled slightly, then he turned around fearfully and bowed, replying, "Yes... yes."
"So where’s my room?"
"It’s right at 309!"
"Next door, huh..." Ryle glanced at the door number "308" again, his face inexplicably showing a cold smile. He gently tapped the shoulder of the woman on the right, and this action caused the two women’s faces to lose all color!
Intuition told them that what was about to happen would definitely not be optimistic, and they had no ability to resist; they could only follow this young man, forced to face their unknown fate.
Ryle led the two women into a luxuriously decorated suite, and after a chaotic commotion, the door to room 308 suddenly opened. The two women who had previously been with Chen Chaoyang now limped out!
That’s right, they were escaping, not simply leaving.
After crossing the golden corridor, one of the women finally couldn’t help but lean against the wall and collapse.
"Are you okay?" The other woman saw that she wasn’t doing well and asked with concern.
"Maybe can’t walk for two days..."
"That guest was so fierce!"
"Exactly! Doing such things while wearing a mask, how ugly must they be."
"Enough, enough, that guest was gentle enough. If we had run into someone like Commander Fan, we’d probably be dead now!"
"Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go."
"..."
Shortly after the two women left, Chen Chaoyang came out, dressed. He first looked in the direction where the women had departed with an inscrutable expression.
After a while, he walked to the door of room 309, calmed his mind, and actually leaned against the door to eavesdrop, but nothing exciting came from inside. Instead, a phone was playing music from a short video.
Feeling puzzled, he finally touched the door’s sensor lock, forced it with strength, and opened the door.
Once the door was opened, a strong smell of blood immediately hit him. Looking down, the floor was covered in blood, with shredded pieces of flesh scattered everywhere!
Perhaps he had predicted such an occurrence; he didn’t feel surprised and naturally stepped inside. Soon, he saw an enormous circular bed that could easily fit two Ah Fu.
However, the scene was quite discordant; the walls around were nearly dyed red with blood, and numerous flesh chunks piled up in the corners. The bed was covered with various shapes of shredded meat! The intense smell of blood was overwhelming! And there was Ryle, lying naked amidst the flesh, looking at his phone. When he noticed Chen Chaoyang’s arrival, he didn’t even lift his head, saying, "Buddy, are you done?"
"Did you kill them?"
"Oh no! I didn’t kill them. Didn’t you say the bigger, the better? But I overestimated humans, so I made them explode! Hahaha!"
Ryle boasted to Chen Chaoyang, his smile growing gentler and more refined, but the words were increasingly cruel and bloody! Chen Chaoyang could already picture the scene.
"You’re truly a psycho."
"Psycho? Do you mean including acts of murder, dismembering, skinning? Oh, I don’t think so. You’ve always been human, even if you don’t admit it, but the fact is, it’s professional! That’s why you find what I did to be psycho. If you were a zombie, you’d discover such gruesome scenes happening in our group all the time! To put it simply, you only feel it’s psycho when you see your kind experiencing bloody events. If it happens to zombies, you wouldn’t feel this way, right?"
Chen Chaoyang slowly clenched his fist; he felt very uncomfortable with the other’s words. The unstoppable images in his mind made him loathe his identity as a human, but he had to admit that the other was right; he didn’t want to admit it, but it couldn’t change reality, and the scene before him indeed made him uncomfortable!
It’s not that his psychological resilience is weak or unable to accept these bloody scenes, but rather these images reminded him of some unpleasant past.
He quickly let it go; he wouldn’t forget that this guy wasn’t a human!
It was a Zombie King!
How could you expect a Zombie King to have any compassion?
With his clenched fist slowly loosening, Chen Chaoyang turned around and, in a plain tone, said, "I won’t disturb you. Rest well." With that, he stepped away, but Ryle called out to him.
"Wait a moment; I saw something interesting."
"What is it?"
"That white-haired guy won."
"And?"
"Aren’t you surprised?"
"Not surprised." Chen Chaoyang shook his head. Before the Zombie King Battle broke out in E Province, there were all kinds of rumors flying around. He had known about such things for a long time. As for win or lose, he truly didn’t care. When two tigers fight, one must die; no matter how unexpected the process, the final outcome is only the same two.
"Oh my, I think you don’t really understand how terrifying the Nightmare Zombie King is?"
"So what? Did it win?"
"Well, maybe I shouldn’t have said that before, but you really need to hear me explain it."
"What are you trying to say, have you been in contact with the Nightmare Zombie King?"
"Of course, but not much. It’s a child who loves making friends."
"Making friends?"
"You seem quite interested? Want to befriend it?"
"Aren’t I friends with a Zombie King?"
"Oh my, I’m really glad you see me as a friend, but as a friend, I must remind you that you wouldn’t want to be friends with it."
"Can you get to the point?"
"Alright... To be friends with it, you need to go through its test. Its first step is to open up and let you into its world, and I’m not speaking figuratively; it’s literally letting you into its world!"
"I find it hard to understand what kind of method that is because it’s the only hypnotist among us, uh... as you humans describe the three major evolutionary paths of zombies, it’s in the mental aspect. I probably haven’t gotten to the point yet?"
"Hurry up; I want to sleep."
"Don’t rush, my friend. Let’s just say, it will force you to play a game, but this game has no end. Maybe it does, but players must explore themselves! I am sure it’s an unbeatable game, yet I have no idea how that white-haired guy managed to get out, completely unharmed..."
"So how did you get out?"
"I haven’t played the game."
"Hmm?"
"I lost a powerful follower during that period. I wanted to see other places, but this world is too big for me to have many brief glances at other similarly strong beings. But these were known to me, whereas the ocean couldn’t be seen or touched. To gain simple knowledge, I sent my follower as my stand-in, and upon entering Lan Ou, I fell into its trap."
"At first, I found it fun, but later I realized I got trapped myself... Actually, it wasn’t a horror game. There were lots of people in it, and their reactions were wonderfully similar to yours."
"Possibly, it realized its game couldn’t scare people, so it made the game much scarier."
"So you got scared?"
