“Go, stage the show that we have prepared,” Liu Zhinan said to Lai Chengkang, who was standing behind him .
Lai Chengkang was a Deputy Chief; average-looking, about thirty years old; not tall, but not short either . He was the kind of man who could become perfectly invisible in a crowd of people .
“Yes, sir!” He nodded with composure and replied . After that, he quickly turned and left .
Soon, the others saw him show up on the fence wall around the square with two people . One man by his side reached out his hands toward the barbed wires . Following his move, the wires started extending, soon sealing the entrance and capping the whole area .
Just like that, the wires were turned into a giant iron cage .
The two-hundred zombies were locked up in the cage, yet they didn’t care . They were all focusing on that man who was hanging in the air .
The fence wall around the square was only five or six-meters tall at first . But all of a sudden, it grew to about twenty meters tall, instantly darkening the light in the square .
At that point, the door at on the bottom of the wall from where the human bait was brought was opened again . A group of people carried in two zombies, which were entirely tied up .
Those two zombies lay there quietly with their eyes closed .
Soon, those soldiers in exposure suits came back into the square and put the two zombies each on one side of the square, then injected something into their bodies .
“Eh? What are they doing? They are not the show that you mentioned, are they?” Gao Haoyun from Heilong Base looked at the square with curiosity .
“Ah, they are both at level-three . As we all know, intelligent zombies are all territorial . So, when a zombie’s territory is invaded by a same-level zombie, or when two same-leveled zombies are in the same place, they will certainly start a fight until one of them has won . So now, the first show we have prepared for you is zombie fight,” Liu Zhinan smilingly introduced the show to the others .
“Ah, I see… It’s interesting!” Lu Zhuofeng’s interest was aroused .
“The first show? Are there more shows after that?” Wu Chengyue smiled while looking down at the square without changing his expression .
“Sure! There is, of course, more than one show . Otherwise, you won’t be having enough run . Am I right?” Liu Zhinan nodded and responded .
After injecting something into the two zombies’ bodies, the group of soldiers quickly evacuated from the square .
In about twenty seconds, the two zombies which were lying motionlessly on the ground opened their eyes simultaneously . Their eyes were purely dark, with no pupils to be seen .
Five years ago, those eyes could scare people to death . But at present, no one would be frightened by those eyes anymore .
They had all gotten familiar with it .
The two zombies blinked, and then had their eyes glowed . Next, they both realized that they were tied up, and instantly started struggling . At the same time, they fixed their eyes on each other .
Puff! Puff! The ropes on them weren’t strong enough, so they soon freed themselves .
“Roar!”
“Roar!”
The two level-three zombies immediately charged at each other .
“They are both at the verge of level-four . So, if one of them eats the other, it would be able to upgrade . Therefore, in order to break into a new level, they will both try their best to kill each other,” said Liu Zhinan, still with a smile .
The two level-three zombies’ presence and the violent vibe of attacking that radiated from them instantly threw the ordinary zombies in the cage into silence . The two darted up to each other, ignoring the surrounding things . They could see nothing but the same-level opponent in their eyes .
They would be able to break into a higher level if they dug out another level-three zombie’s nucleus and ate it .
They were both as level-three . In both terms of strength and speed, they had gone far beyond ordinary human beings . While launching attacks, they liked to move on all fours and have their eyes fixed right on their opponents .
They each had a mark on their necks: one red and the other blue .
“Do you wanna bet which one will win? I bet on the red one,” Hu Zhiyong said smilingly .
“Eh? Can we do that? Good! Let’s me see… The blue one looks good! I bet on the blue one with a level-five zombie nucleus! Haha!” Lu Zhuofeng threw a zombie nucleus on the table and laughed .
“I bet on the red one!”
“Blue!”
“Blue!”
The others got excited as well . As people had made a bet, they all stared at the two zombies with great interests .
Only Lan Lu and Wu Chengyue were looking down at the square absent-mindedly . One of them was wearing a smile, and one was expressionless . No one could tell what they were thinking .
Lin Qiao was standing on the fence wall, looking down . She glanced at the people in the building and saw them put zombie nuclei on tables . Then, she read Lai Chengkang’s mind and learned what those people had been doing at the moment .
‘A show?’
A beam of light flashed across Lin Qiao’s eyes as she curved her lips in a smile . She had decided to liven things up for those people .
Having decided that, she leaped off the fence wall . The antidote had spread long ago, and she was watching since the beginning . She felt nothing from the antidote which was burned by fire . Clearly, it couldn’t affect her at all .
She climbed onto the iron cage, then swiftly flashed to the two level-three zombies . At that point, the two were fighting intensely . But in the next moment, the two zombies suddenly froze .
“Eh? What’s wrong?” Seeing that, people who had been watching the fight happily were all confused .
“Eh?”
“Why did they suddenly stop?”
Soon, the violent vibes from the two zombies faded . They just quietly stood in the square, looking at each other .
That was right . They stopped fighting and just stood there, looking at each other without making any move .
“Eh? What’s going on? It’s not a part of the show that you arranged, is it?” Bao Chengzhi, a leader of Mongols Base, couldn’t help but turn to the Huaxia Base people .
“No! We didn’t arrange that! How did that happen?” Liu Zhinan was deeply confused as well . He turned and looked at Hu Zhiyong and Si Kongchen .
The two were also looking at him with confusion .
“Why did they stop fighting? They’re not going to shake hands and make up, are they?” said Lu Zhuofeng .
In a few seconds, the others all turned to him with a weird look . That was because once he finished talking, the two level-three zombies each reached out a hand and shook with each other .
“Damn! I… I was joking!” Lu Zhuofeng was stunned .
