Chapter 1 - Chapter 1

No, this cannot be true.

Even dead Alexander couldn't believe what was happening was real. But painfully, he was dying.

The scratching on the door grew louder and louder, accompanied by wheezing sounds coming from the monsters' throats. A minute ago, this house had only the sweet voice of the one he loved. An hour ago, he and I were still watching a romantic movie together, kissing and exchanging sweet words.

Why do these things happen? Is this divine punishment?

Alexander burst into tears, his face smeared with tears, he used the hem of his shirt soaked in dark red blood to wipe away the tears. My blood - the one he pushed so hard out of this room when I fell and tried to cling to his leg. Oh, pardon me, dear Elizabeth, if this has not happened...

So can you see my smile?

Gripping the gun in his hand, he pulled the trigger.

It hurts so bad, it hurts so bad I want to die! Whoever comes to kill him, please let him die at once! Was it the same Elizabeth before, watching with her own eyes the monsters slowly gnaw at her hands, then her feet, then her heart...

Oh, dear Elizabeth, may we meet again in Heaven.

Before completely losing consciousness, he recalled that, on TV, there was a reportage in big cities, asking if everyone had ever seen zombies?

Probably a lot of people say they did, on TV, on the phone, on reports screaming at the eroded graves.

So, have you ever seen a real zombie?

At present, many people can say that this life has finally seen zombies with their own eyes.

Lilith stretched to wake up. Last night was the one-month anniversary after she finally broke up with her unanswered love, she and her friends got drunk at the biggest bar in the city. Finally, this morning when she opened her eyes, she could only see her head buzzing, her ears ringing like she was slipping into some war movie. There were bombs, there were gunshots and lots of screams for help.

Maybe the neighbor's speaker is too loud. She angrily banged on her old tattered wall. As soon as she earns enough money to live on, she will leave this ragged place and move into a real home - where people can live quietly and not be disturbed while sleeping.

It was already eleven o'clock, Lilith entered the bathroom, she couldn't be late for a week in a row. Otherwise, she will be fired again.

Spitting mouthwash in her mouth, Lilith let out a long sigh. If only she had a pretty face, she would quickly climb to the position of the wife of the president and kick these hecklers out of the company.

Today, she will wear an elegant white dress. Comes with a pearl necklace. The makeup will also be a little light so that she can continue to pretend to be the gentle, lovely little sister in the eyes of those idiots in the office. Lilith felt so proud of herself.

Straightening her hair, she walked out the door of the inn. After all, how crazy is the neighbor's house to dare to speak so loudly? Lilith angrily knocks on the door of the neighbor's room, this time she won't hold back anymore and scolds them.

After a while of knocking on the door like crazy, they finally opened the door a little, looking at her with fear in their eyes.

"Hi, I'm the neighbor in room 301, can you turn the TV on, I…"

"MONSTER!!!"

The neighbor shouted with a loud voice, the section of which was not even a drop of blood, and slammed the door. Lilith grimaced, did she have to be so ungrateful? She will report to the innkeeper later.

Lilith turned her head, another person was lying on the floor. This guy looks weird, drunk? This inn is also tolerable. She didn't even pay attention and continued walking.

Immediately after she left, the drunkard began to move...

… and rushed to cling to her.

"What the hell are you doing? Metamorphosis!!! Assist…"

Lilith panicked, reaching up to touch her neck. Did that drunk guy just bite her neck? Is this a new type of metamorphosis or what? No, why didn't he remove it? Why does he continue to gobble up? Pain, so painful...

Please save me…

Ten minutes later, her body also began to move.

"Mommy… Don't make Erica scared… Mom, wake up…"

Erica tearfully shook her mother's motionless body on the floor. Today, she came home late from school, surreptitiously entered the house, and witnessed the scene where his father stabbed his mother in the head with a knife and left it in the kitchen. Erica immediately rushed to beg her father to stop, but her father pushed her away and continued to pack.

Erica ran to hug her mother's body, calling her mother repeatedly. My father came out of the kitchen and sat down on the ground. I could see that Dad was crying too, quietly.

Dad turned on the TV, opened the news, and saw the female MC who was smiling before, now dead without closing her eyes, the surrounding only echoes the sound of swallowing.

"This Erica…"

My father spoke heavily.

"You've seen zombie movies, right? The corpses will move and hunt people."

"Know…" Erica sniffled. Baby and dad often enjoy watching zombie movies, even though mom says they're useless and have no educational meaning at all.

"What if dad said… what usually happens in movies happened? And your mother turned into a zombie…"

Dad burst into tears, clutching his mother's bloody knife hilt.

"No dad… no…"

"Erica, listen well. From now on, our lives are no longer the same. We have to rely on each other to survive, I will protect you, but you need to understand…"

No, Dad must be joking. How can such absurd things happen?

"Erica! Please listen to me!"

No… It was all just a dream. Probably because Erica watched too many horror movies to dream of things like this. Gotta wake up soon, wake up with mom and dad...

Erica blankly opened her eyes, in front of her eyes was the sturdy back of her father. But Dad didn't move anymore. Standing in front of him was a corpse that gave off the rotting smell of a corpse gnawing at his skull. Dad saved Erica.

Within minutes, Erica was already an orphan.

Erica cried loudly, hugging her father's body tightly. In her heart, pain and anger are rising like volcanoes erupting.

Why is this happening to the baby's family? Why mom and dad? Why protect Erica?!

- ARE NOT!!!

Erica shouted in indignation, then immediately fainted. The baby didn't notice that the zombie was leaving behind his father's body and slowly approached the place where the baby's skull was broken by the scream! Even the bodies of my parents disappeared, leaving only blood and broken flesh.

What will be waiting for the baby tomorrow?

"Class… class rep!!! Zo… zombie!!! There are zombies!!!"

Mike rushed in from outside, he looked like he had just been chased by a ghost, his legs were stretched up to his neck, and he couldn't even speak.

"Mike, grow up, we're about to graduate from junior high, it's not like kids who believe your bullshit."

The vice-classroom classmate spoke up. Normally she doesn't talk much, but rumors like this can interfere with her studies. Furthermore, what high school would take her seriously if she knew she was from a school where the students still believed in zombies?

"No!!! Please believe me!!! Oh…"

Mike didn't waste any more time staying, quickly ran inside the room, grabbed the long ruler, and hurried away.

As soon as his shadow disappeared in the crowd, the opposite direction also started to get louder. There were screams, cries, and footsteps running around like wild animals.

"Zombies!!!"

"There are zombies!!! Run away!!!"

"Save… save me with…"

The vice-study class frowned, is there any rehearsal today that you don't know about? She angrily walked out of the classroom, intending to teach these people a class.

But the first scene the vice-president saw when going out, was the scene of a blue-white-faced classmate, with only half a skull left, biting another classmate's neck. All she could think of was the grotesque disgusting scene that often appeared in horror movies that stupid boys watched. Ironically, the scene is so real, that the girl is not watching the movie!

The classmates all turned into monsters!

The classmates are chewing each other!

The school became more and more chaotic, the vice-study class fell to the ground.

Zombie classmates saw her, and immediately rushed over, she could only put out her hand to support, screaming the last bit with the hope of scaring those monsters.

A few seconds had passed, and the vice-president still hadn't felt the zombie's claws stab him. The girl slowly opened her eyes, the zombie in front of her had turned into a stone statue. Around her, a solid stone fence was erected, protecting her from the demonic claws of those zombies.

Aha! Unbelievable! Vice-class student is a powerful person!!!

As long as she survives, she will turn into a hero to save the world, end the zombie epidemic and make her parents proud!

She took advantage when the zombies dispersed, using all her strength to run, although until now, she still did not know where to run.

She had to go home, to her father, to her mother. Must save them, only then will she be recognized, will become their good daughter.

Diego Angelo is not afraid of the apocalypse.

He is very rich, and not only has the number one luxury car in the world, he even owns a private jet. Enough to get his whole family to somewhere safe to take refuge.

Moreover, his position in the State is very high, and after reaching the capital, he will be assigned a place. And just like that, his family would grow and survive.

"Hurry, get on the plane."

He lifted his five-year-old son onto the plane and checked his belongings again. Because the number of seats was not enough, he decided to leave his elderly parents behind. But, Diego knew well enough that his old grandparents wouldn't be abandoned so easily. So he prepared in advance, mixing sleeping pills into their food.

This is an isolated area, if they know how to make use of the reserves, they will at least live comfortably until they die of old age or die from being eaten by a monster.

His role as a son ends here.

He climbed into the plane and started the engine.

"Dad, where are we going? Where are your grandparents?"

The 3-year-old daughter rubbed her lovely eyes and asked dreamily.

"We'll go far, far away..."

And Diego started the engine and took off.

The plane began to climb, but as soon as about 1000m above the ground, the plane stopped working.

"Damned! What the hell is happening here? Damn it!!!"

The giant, beautiful garden of Angelo's paradise emitted a terrible explosion, awakening the deep sleep of the Angelo grandparents.
