"General Shen!"
"Boss!"
On the first floor of Huaxing Building, when Shen Bingqian and Chu Nan came down one after another, the employees who were having breakfast all stood up to greet them.
"Don't call me General Shen anymore!"
"From now on, call me Lady Chu!"
Chu Nan put his arms around Shen Bingqian's shoulder and corrected everyone with a serious tone.
"Lady Chu?"
At first, the thirty or so employees were confused, but then they suddenly realized.
Last night, the two of them stayed overnight together, so Shen Bingqian must already belong to Chu Nan!
"Hello, sister-in-law!"
The employees were tactful and immediately changed their way of addressing her.
Shen Bingqian just gave them an annoyed look but didn't object, showing that she accepted the new title.
"Furthermore, from today onwards, all of you will go out and collect supplies!"
"This is mainly to train your combat abilities!"
"The living conditions will become more difficult in the future, and it will be hard for you to survive if you don't have enough self-defense abilities!"
Chu Nan assigned them tasks before leaving Huaxing Building.
The streets were empty. The mindless wandering zombies seemed to have disappeared overnight, as if they had evaporated from the world.
Anyone who didn't know would think that the zombies had been cleared away.
Chu Nan, who had experienced the end of the world, knew that the zombies had suddenly disappeared from the streets because higher-level zombies had appeared!
These higher-level zombies not only had territorial awareness but also gained intelligence!
They gathered all the zombies in their territories and ambushed them in places where humans were likely to appear.
That's why the zombies that used to roam the streets suddenly disappeared overnight!
In the previous life, less than two months after the apocalypse, the first Zombie King-level zombie was born in Pujiang.
At that time, many humans had already awakened their abilities!
In the mountains, the strength of mutated beasts became more and more terrifying!
As they continued to evolve, some even gained intelligence!
Some could even transform into human form and have intelligence that was not inferior to humans!
Thinking of the Zombie King from the previous life, Chu Nan decided to go somewhere.
If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.
It was the Haoda Plaza where Walmart was located!
In the previous life, the first Zombie King was born there!
Now that he had awakened the ancient bloodline, which had the power to suppress zombies, why not recruit a few Zombie Kings as his subordinates!
Also, last time, he only cleared out the supermarket and warehouse in Walmart. He hadn't touched the luxury brand stores on the upper floors.
He wasn't interested in those so-called luxury goods; he was only interested in the clothes on the upper floors!
Before the apocalypse, he had stocked up on a lot of food, but not many clothes!
"Vroom…"
He stepped on the gas and headed straight to Haoda Plaza.
After about ten minutes, the armored vehicle stopped at the entrance of Haoda Plaza.
Chu Nan got out of the car, and to be safe, he released three combat robots.
However, the square was empty, not a single zombie in sight.
Even the zombie corpses that were piled up on the square a few days ago were nowhere to be found!
In the previous life, Haoda Plaza later became the Haoda Base, and the leader was a man with a pockmarked face.
And that Zombie King was born nearby!
A few days ago, he dealt with the group of fugitives who had escaped from prison, and Haoda Plaza became a no man's land.
But to find that Zombie King, it could only depend on luck.
"Go upstairs!"
After scanning the surroundings, Chu Nan saw that there were no zombies, not even ordinary zombies.
Therefore, he decided to loot the clothes on the upper floors first.
He led the three robots straight to the fifth floor!
To his surprise, there were no zombies on the upper floors either, and the looting went surprisingly smoothly.
In less than half an hour, he had cleared out all the clothing stores on the upper floors.
Just as he was about to leave with a full load and try his luck elsewhere, something happened at the entrance of the building that stunned him…
Suddenly, a large group of zombies appeared out of nowhere at the entrance.
It seemed like they were specifically targeting him and blocked him at the door.
"So there is a Zombie King nearby!"
Seeing the zombies outside, Chu Nan was startled at first, but soon he became happy.
There were no zombies outside just a moment ago, but in the past half hour, so many zombies suddenly appeared.
Obviously, someone was manipulating the zombie group behind the scenes!
More precisely, higher-level zombies were controlling these groups of zombies!
If nothing unexpected happened, the first Zombie King from the previous life must be nearby.
"Force our way out!"
Chu Nan gave the order to the three robots walking in front of him.
With the awakening of the ancient bloodline, he had the ability to suppress zombies, so he had no fear.
"Click, click…"
Upon receiving the command, the three robots continued to move forward.
At the same time, Chu Nan released his aura, intending to suppress the zombies outside with his bloodline power.
"Crash!"
As if sensing the immense aura emanating from him, the zombies outside were frightened and hurriedly retreated, making way for a path.
Within ten steps, not a single zombie dared to approach!
"Could it be that the bloodline is slowly awakening?"
Looking at the distance, Chu Nan suddenly thought of a possibility!
His awakening of the ancient bloodline might be slowly strengthening.
Yesterday, the zombies didn't dare to approach within five steps, but today it had increased to ten steps!
This meant that today's bloodline power was twice as strong as yesterday's!
In other words, his ancient bloodline inside his body was either slowly awakening or slowly growing stronger!
No wonder there were no abnormal signs after he ate the blood-red fruit the other day!
It turns out that it was slowly awakening!
According to reason, such a powerful ability should have caused heavenly and earthly anomalies, but nothing happened.
Instead, there were thunderstorms and lightning flickering in other places outside the city, indicating that many people had awakened powerful abilities!
"Come here!"
Chu Nan took out a piece of fresh meat from the storage space and beckoned to a tall zombie.
In the previous life, he only knew that the Zombie Biao had recruited two Zombie Kings as his subordinates, but he had never heard of the specific methods.
After awakening the ancient bloodline in this life, he could only explore it himself.
Therefore, he took out a piece of beef intending to test the reaction of these zombies.
"Tap, tap…"
The tall zombie was first stunned for a moment, then cautiously walked over.
It moved slowly, with fear in its eyes.
But when it stopped one meter away from Chu Nan, it knelt down with a "thump", lowered its head, and held its hands above its head as if waiting for a blessing!
Seeing this ancient receiving blessing ceremony, Chu Nan was slightly surprised, then placed the piece of meat in the zombie's hands.
