Level up Zombie

It was an interesting tale, one that was almost impossible to believe. But then again, if they hadn\'t experienced the current situation and gone through the things each one of them had, none of them would have imagined the current world the way it was.

"Why zombies though?" Wendy spoke up for the first time. "At the same time, when the demons appeared, people started to gain powers. We have the superhumans. So why did you attack the Zombie Hunters when we could help you?"

Being a Zombie Hunter herself, she felt the need to somewhat defend her cause, but she was careful with her words not to offend. Thankfully, Humfree just laughed off the comment.

"The answer is simpler than you think. In the first place, you were the ones that chose the zombies as your enemy by your name, rather than accepting the situation. When the demons are our real enemy.

"But regardless of that, the answer is simple," Humfree explained. "It\'s because the zombies are superior, and I\'m not just talking about the conscious ones like we have here or at the Reborn group.

"Think about it for a moment. Zombies are creatures that naturally unlock more strength within humans. They feel no pain, and they can be injured almost anywhere on their body other than the head without problems.

"This makes them practically fighting machines, but that\'s not even the best part. The virus inside them condenses the cells into the shape of a crystal. When one zombie dies, another is able to consume it, and in turn, they continue to grow stronger.

"A large army that even in death can pass on their strength to another."

Zain understood what Humfree was talking about. He grew stronger from the crystals, and testing it out on the others showed that they could as well. As for the growth he mentioned, there were Stage 3, 4, and possibly 5 zombies. He couldn\'t imagine the demons having an easy time taking them down.

"All of the superhumans you\'re talking about are byproducts. The virus is somewhat airborne. The cells have already entered your body but mutated you in a different way. You guys, the superhumans as you call it, are just a simple byproduct.

"You might have powers, but that\'s it. The powers don\'t grow. You aren\'t strong enough to defeat the demons. However, you can still help by at least using a part of your body in death."

Wendy wanted to argue back. The way he was talking, it was as if he didn\'t value life at all. He just wanted to accomplish his goal, using the creation he made.

"Why are some conscious and some unconscious?" the soldier asked.

"That is a good question, one for which we haven\'t found the answer. When creating this virus, we went through many phases of experimentation. We found that some had consciousness while others didn\'t.

"It wasn\'t part of the solution itself but seemed to change on an individual basis, almost like a different mutation, similar to that of the superhumans. We ran multiple tests trying to fix it or create a type of vaccine that would allow everyone who came into contact with the virus to be conscious.

"Yet, time was running out. In a desperate attempt, we had to start running real-life trial tests. The military made us a private branch called the Reborn group, and if we were ever to be discovered, the government could distance themselves from us that way."

The real-life trials were the cases that must have happened before the meteor strike. Zain could only imagine. He remembered being told by Skittle and seeing the videos on the dark web.I think you should take a look at

\'A lot of people believe that the meteor strike and the zombie outbreak happened at the same time, so they had to be related, but the cases before on the Dark Web prove it otherwise. This explains it,\' Zain thought.

"There was one breakthrough. Using the crystals and cells from inside those that were already zombies, we could create a new crystal. If a person were to come into contact with the crystal, part of the virus would already be inside them," Humfree continued.

Now Zain was putting it all together—the crystal that Sarah had, the one he had found, which contained the system she implemented.

"Although that wasn\'t a solution for all. Many zombies had to be created in the first place to create just one crystal. In the end, we ran out of time before discovering a solution.

"The meteor strike occurred and several of our facilities were hit, releasing those we had in captivity, thus spreading the zombie virus."

Zain finally got the answer he was looking for. His involvement in all of this mess was simply an accident. He played no big part in all of this; he was just a string being pulled along in this world.

"You said you and Sarah worked together, but you split both ways. Why? What is the difference between your goals and hers?" Zain asked.

Humfree paused for a second before answering.

"The goal of the Dark Zombies has remained true from the beginning. We are a group of zombies that will take out the demons attacking us. We know that there will be sacrifices, but we will use everything we have to get rid of them.

"As for Sarah, she regrets what she has done. She regrets creating the zombie virus, even though it\'s our only chance against them. She is attempting to strike a deal with the demons and create a cure to turn everyone back into a human.

"If she succeeds, then we won\'t have a fighting chance. The virus in the superhumans will disappear as well, and we will be defenceless against the threat."
