Although Nate has no idea of this, Dike has gone through his second zombie evolution and ever since that happened, a lot of changes have occurred to the little boy.
The little boy has broken quite a record that no one can imagine. Being the first zombie to ever recover from a headshot, if not the only one.
Zombies having the ability to heal or even regrow limbs was natural to see but one recovering from critical head damage have never been heard of, not even in a fictional world.
After his evolution, the little boy who thought that he will be a forever young boy surprisingly aged a bit after the evolution. Not only that, he is now a zombie in the horde building class but a different one from Nate.
But honestly, the little boy never expected to receive a new mission. After the fight with the zombie hunters, although Dike has evolved and the others know about this, they have been excluding the latter from fights.
Even if he happens to come along, the others will try as much as possible to end the fight quicker than ever that's why Dike was surprised when Bull gave him this mission.
Not just did he assign this mission to him, but he did it without sending an assist which was what Dike so much wanted so he can freely test his newfound power.
"What are you guys waiting for? Kill that thing...!" the woman leading the soldiers commanded.
Her world seems to have snapped the soldiers out of their daze as they started firing at Dike.
Dike seeing this just sent his tentacles out. After the revolution, the number of tentacles he now has was about were now eight. The perfect amount of tentacles an octopus has.
The first tentacle sweeps off the soldiers approaching him. The soldiers were sent flying in all directions while two more tentacles went and wrapped around the tanker while squeezing tight on its body.
It was apparently impossible that the tentacles can crush the armoured tanker by doing that. Although he is strong, his strength hasn't reached a level he could do that, however, it surely has reached a level where he could lift such tun of weight with his tentacles.
A few more wrapped around the tanker and it was picked up. While the tanker was up, Dike used this opportunity to rush forward to some of the dead bodies laying on the ground.
'The system has only explained to me what my power is, but I have never used it, perhaps I can use this opportunity to test it out,' Dike thought.
He picked up one of the bodies and shoved it into his mouth. In one gulp, the body was digested but there was no increase in Dike height or size. That wasn't the case.
Opening his mouth again, Dike produced a bubble, however, this bubble was not transparent like the others he used to make.
It was a green colour bubble which Dike popped that instant.
On popping the bubble, the same body he swallowed fall out. It had no cloth on it like before. The man fall to the ground but after a few seconds, his body twitched a little before the man stood up and was looking now facing Dike.
[A undead clone has been created]
With the message from the system, Dike was assured that his power actually worked.
'Now, your first command is to knock out all of those people,' Dike commanded and his new horde rushed out to carry out the command.
As the undead clone went out to carry out his commands, Dike was busy picking up more dead bodies while using them to create more clones to assist in the fight.
Meanwhile, Kim, Pine, Rake and Chuck couldn't believe their eyes.
"Who is that boy...?" Rake couldn't help but be shocked.
The tide of the fight has just changed. The soldiers were now being pushed back to retreat slowly.
Eventually, Dike have come to the four sides and noticed them. "You guys...you must know Nate right or are you one of them...?" Dike asked bringing the tanker above them.
Kim was puzzled about what to say. He does not know whether the person before him was with the military, or with Nate. But on looking at what was happening, he know that that was not the case.
"Yes...I know Nate, he's a talking zombie right...?" just to assure this person that he knows Nate, Kim has to expose the secret he knows about Nate.
"Better for you...and you don't really need to mention that he's a zombie, " Dike replied.
He later chunked the tanker into the sea for the time being. "Anyways... If you know that he is a zombie and is still alive, that means you are in a good team with him which also means I have to protect you guys," Dike said as he started to lead the others to safety.
Meanwhile, Kim was left wondering and thinking about what Nate told him.
'Is this strong kid from his base, is there a chance that they can take over this base,' Kim thought secretly.
Regardless of what the case might be, since Dike saved them, they prefer following him then leaving the base right away.

Meanwhile, the others have been having it easy on them. Bull and Sin were able to prevent Nate's undead horde from killing all the soldiers. Dike finished his tasks quite easily.
However, Lyon wasn't having the same quick ending luck on his side.
Pursuing a jet fighter wasn't an easy task. Fighting jets were the fastest plans human kinds have ever built and among that, they still have a variety of them. They are high grades and low grades. jets but from the looks of things, the jet Lyon was currently pursuing wasn't something that could be considered a low grade.
It was even a miracle that Lyon can still see the back of such a jet but for him to keep this up, it was taking a lot of his energy.
"Ahhhhh....!!! Can't you just stay at a place!!!" Lyon shouted.
He has long been noticed by the pilots and they have been running around the entire country with him.
Pick a large spike he has created, lyon throws it out at the jet like a spear but once again, it missed.
"Fuck...you guys...!!!" Lyon caused.
Meanwhile, inside the plan were two pilots.
"Don't you think we should stop this already, I know it's fun toying with him but we still have a task to carry and I don't think this jet has infinite fuel," the second pilot advised the first pilot who was mainly the one piloting the jet.
"What do you think, he following us, not like he will just leave us," the first pilot replied still enjoying how he was swiftly dodging all Lyons spikes.
"Then let's get rid of him already, not like the others will go out to carry out the task," the second pilot argued.
"Fine...you better finish him off real quick," The first pilot said before positioning the jet in a way that it was now facing Lyon.
"Finally...you guys decide to fight like the man you are," Lyon smiled.
