"Ding! The host is devouring the flesh and blood of a first-order mutant beast, +10 evolution points..."
...
"Ding! The host has completed the weekly task, 'Recovering Dignity: Slaying a first-order mutant beast!'"
"Rewards are being distributed... Random selection in progress..."
"Reward locked: The host's body agility has been moderately enhanced!"
"New weekly tasks will be issued tomorrow. Please check in on time, host!"
"Ding! The host's evolution value has reached 300/300, meeting the advancement condition..."
"The host is starting the advancement..."
"The host has completed the advancement!"
"Current level: Fourth-order ordinary zombie!"
"The host's strength has doubled, speed slightly increased, vision and hearing have slightly enhanced, and body agility has been strengthened..."
Shaun heard a series of electronic sounds in his mind, leaving him stunned.
He never expected that killing a mutant beast would bring so many rewards.
A mysterious power surged through him, making him feel truly stronger, especially his body agility. The advancement and rewards from the weekly task made him feel like his joints had come to life.
Clap!
He raised his right hand and snapped his fingers!
In his mind, his advancement value had already reached 50/400.
Killing one mutant beast brought him 200 advancement points, equivalent to infecting twenty humans. No wonder zombies instinctively attacked mutant beasts.
But why didn't he feel the same excitement as when infecting humans?
"Ding! Due to the host's weakness, to prevent foolish behaviors like seeking death, the instinct of the zombie virus has been suppressed!"
The system even had an explanation, making it quite user-friendly. But what did they mean by seeking death?!
Shaun tied a bow with the pink curtain on his neck, instantly feeling much more exquisite.
A Demon King should look like a Demon King!
He chased away the female zombie and dragged the big white dog's body into the depths of the supermarket, fearing that it would frighten the survivors.
This time, he had tasted the sweetness thoroughly. Unexpectedly, he completed the weekly task at a critical moment.
"Lucky ones, come! Submit to me!"
Shaun roared at the supermarket entrance, then turned around and gracefully returned to the shadow of the supermarket with a flick of his pink cloak, starting the next round of waiting.
The day passed quickly, and no survivors came. It seemed that only a few lucky and strong humans were left.
When Shaun looked at the clock on the supermarket wall, it was already noon.
"Ding! A new round of weekly tasks has been released. Please check, host!"
"Weekly task, Divine Descent: Acquire a divine talent."
"Task brief: The arrival of the apocalypse has dyed the future of humanity with a bloody hue, but all things contain a glimmer of hope! Seven days after the apocalypse, the sky began to drop countless colorful radiance. Anyone who obtains a radiance will receive a random divine talent. This is humanity's turning point! However, zombies also have the opportunity to acquire it!"
"Difficulty: Two stars!"
"Task time: Within seven days!"
"Reward: The talent you obtain will directly upgrade by one tier!"
Shaun didn't expect such a change to occur seven days later, with humans also experiencing a turning point.
It seemed that he needed to speed up his evolution to become a true Zombie BOSS and have a foothold in this chaotic world.
Roar! Just then, the outside began to echo with the continuous roars of zombies, as if the sound had enveloped the entire city, bringing deeper despair.
All the zombies were howling, and Shaun slowly walked to the supermarket entrance, wanting to see what was happening.
"Am I the odd one out if I don't howl too?" Watching the zombies outside howling to the sky, he also joined in with his own howls.
But then something happened that shocked him!
The eternal blood sun in the sky suddenly emitted a strong light, shining on every zombie's body.
The zombies seemed to be absorbing the red light. This phenomenon lasted for ten minutes before the red light from the blood sun dissipated.
Shaun also received the red light, but he didn't seem to notice any difference. As usual, he wondered why these zombies were making so much noise.
"They are brainless creatures indeed!" Shaun felt a sense of superiority, but then another shocking thing happened.
After the zombies stopped howling, their bodies seemed to become more agile, much like himself when he had just advanced to the second stage.
Have all the zombies evolved?!
The blood sun actually had the power to advance not just one zombie but billions of zombies on the planet!
But why didn't he feel anything?!
"System, system!"
"Ding! As the blood sun provides energy for the system, it has been absorbed!"
"You're quite honest!" Shaun's lips curled. He didn't expect the system to be so straightforward and just admit it. No wonder he didn't feel anything. But with the system, his evolution speed was much faster than that of ordinary zombies.
Outside, all the zombies were at the second stage, while he was already at the fourth stage!
Shaun shuddered suddenly!
The countless zombie howls also alarmed the survivors in the high-rise buildings. Everyone was trembling in despair.
Some people looked out of the window and found that the zombies had become stronger. Some even burst into tears. The pressure of the apocalypse was enough to drive many people insane.
Shaun returned to the supermarket and prepared to wait for the last twelve hours, then chase after the talents when the sky had the colorful radiance.
This time, the weekly task was not about challenging mutant beasts, so it was not too dangerous for him!
For humans outside, they couldn't move a step, but for him, he was truly unimpeded!
Time slowly passed and reached six o'clock in the morning. After the zombies' evolution last night, it seemed that no survivors dared to come out.
But in the last two hours, some cautious individuals finally arrived at the supermarket.
There were two young men and a woman. They cautiously made their way here without encountering any other zombies along the way.
One of the men looked exhausted, but at this moment, he was excited and exclaimed, "I skillfully avoided all the zombies through my careful calculations and analysis! Trust me, it's true!"
The other two didn't pay any attention to him and saw the scattered food in the supermarket. Their eyes almost glowed with the hunger of wolves.
Tearing open a bag of chips, they started wolfing it down and frantically packed food into their backpacks.
Only after the apocalypse did they truly understand the value of food.
The man outside also began to pack food, while the woman went directly into the depths of the supermarket to do the same.
Shaun watched the approaching humans, feeling a surge of excitement. Even his cells seemed to be trembling, and this feeling was stronger than ever before.
The advancement of the zombie virus had changed him thoroughly.
The lighting here was dim, and the red light from the blood sun was difficult to shine in. The woman was still madly collecting food, paying no attention to her surroundings.
The food had made her lose her sanity!
