Dark Civilization - Chapter5

Eyes can't kill people, so Ye Chen directly ignored it. His expression was cold as he walked in front of the girl. After confirming that she was dead, he squatted down and used a knife to cut open her chest.

The girl's skin was slightly green. After being cut open, the blood from her chest flowed down like running water. It was as black as ink and emitted a fishy smell. If it was a normal person, under the resentful gaze of the dead, they definitely wouldn't have the guts to touch the corpse. But Ye Chen had seen this kind of situation many times, so he was already used to it.

"Huh?"

Ye Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, "Genetic meat!"

He saw that in the girl's chest, beside the black heart, there was a piece of fresh white meat. It was the size of a finger, like sheep fat, without a trace of blood.

Ye Chen's hand was covered with a plastic bag. He carefully took out the white meat and sniffed it. The meat didn't have the slightest smell of blood. Instead, there was a burst of fragrance.

"I didn't expect that after killing two adult zombies, I couldn't find any genetic meat. But I actually found it on this little zombie."

Ye Chen shook his head and smiled. He walked to the toilet in the room and washed the white meat. Then he threw it into his mouth and chewed.

Genetic meat!

It has a magical effect. After eating it, it can strengthen the body. It can be obtained from normal zombies.

The reason why humans become zombies is because they are infected by the virus. The body's flesh can't withstand the rapid transformation of the virus, causing the genetic chain to collapse and the skin to fester. This is the same logic as letting a bicycle exceed the speed of a car. The bicycle itself is not strong enough, so it will only disintegrate.

What is the strongest thing about humans?

Intelligence!

Without intelligence, technology, and weapons, humans are weak in front of nature's beasts. They don't have the bravery of a lion, the speed of a leopard, the flying ability of an eagle, and the tenacious vitality of a cockroach ….

The goal of the scientists who developed the virus was to stimulate the cells of the human body through the virus, causing the cells to undergo metamorphosis and gain strength comparable to wild beasts. Unfortunately, the virus was still in the experimental stage when it exploded, leading to a series of disasters...

Most people couldn't withstand the virus infection and turned into zombies. Among these zombies, there was a portion of zombies that developed the "Geno Meat" that the group of scientists wanted!

According to the scientists' thoughts, if the virus was successfully developed, the human body's flesh and blood would evolve into a genetic form. That way, the vitality of the human body would be greatly increased, and their physical strength would also be astonishing. They would become a "new human"!

But now …

To Ye Chen, the base meat was something that could increase his strength!

After the tender white meat was chewed in his mouth, a faint fragrance filled the air. Ye Chen sat on the ground and rested for a moment. The meat in his stomach seemed to be gradually digested and integrated into his body.

Ye Chen clenched his fists. He could vaguely feel that his strength had increased by a quarter. This piece of meat was really too small. If it was the size of a fist, then his strength would have increased by a hundred jin.

Ye Chen walked around the room, and didn't see any more zombies. Instead, he found three boxes of canned vegetables in the fridge. In addition, the frozen fish in the fridge had already rotted under the virus infection. The surface of the fish was crawling with maggots. These maggots had been baptized by the virus and would quickly mutate.

Ye Chen opened a box of canned vegetables. The vegetables weren't infected by the virus and were still intact. Ye Chen put the three boxes of canned vegetables on the side of the cabinet. He would bring them back when he came back from hunting zombies.

Holding the watermelon knife, Ye Chen took a deep breath. Soon after, he opened the door and walked out.

In the dark corridor, there was still no one. It was so quiet that it was shocking.

Ye Chen slowly walked to a room on the side. This room's door was locked. Ye Chen didn't open it. If there were zombies trapped inside, then that would be the best. Because zombies don't know how to open the door, they would only slowly starve to death.

Ye Chen went to a few rooms. The doors were all locked. This wasn't strange. After all, the apocalypse happened at 7 o 'clock in the evening. At that time, people were all in their rooms. No one stayed in the hotel and the doors were open.

The hotel had a total of eighteen floors. The floor that Ye Chen lived on was the top floor. Because every room was extremely spacious, there were only six or seven rooms on this floor. Two of these rooms were rented by Ye Chen, and the zombie inside the other one had already been killed. The remaining four rooms were all locked.

After Ye Chen confirmed that there were no zombies moving around on this floor, he turned around and walked to the elevator. He was ready to go to the next floor.

"Thirteenth floor!"

Seeing the number displayed on the elevator, Ye Chen pressed the down button. The elevator suddenly moved and went up.

Ye Chen stood in front of the elevator and quietly waited. Looking at the jumping number, he didn't know why, but he suddenly felt a trace of fear.

“14!”

“15!”

As the elevator went up, Ye Chen's heart felt more and more uneasy. His face couldn't help but slightly change. He didn't wait for the elevator. Instead, he ran to the corridor next to the elevator and hid by the fire cabinet. After a moment, the elevator slowly opened. In the quiet corridor, it was a bit strange.

Before Ye Chen had time to relax, from the elevator, slowly walked out a few swaying figures.

Ye Chen's eyelids twitched. He quickly held his breath. His heart almost stopped. It was so quiet that he didn't make a sound. He saw that the swaying figures were three men and one woman. They were wearing casual clothes. Most likely, they came here for vacation. But when they entered the elevator, the end of the world happened. They were infected by the virus and became zombies.

The female zombie was wearing a white T-shirt with a cute bear pattern on it. But this shirt was stained with a lot of blood. Probably the people in the elevator who were not infected by the virus were dismembered by these people.

Her hair was messy. Her fingernails were deep and long. Her skin didn't fester. But her eyes turned light green. And the originally delicate cheeks became very ferocious. Two fangs protruded out. There were dried blood stains on the side of her mouth.

As for the other three men, their situation was similar. After they came out of the elevator, they circled around outside, sniffing everywhere. It seemed that they smelled fresh and delicious blood.

Ye Chen's heart was a little nervous. Fortunately, he ran away from the elevator in time. Otherwise, when the elevator opened and these zombies rushed out, he would definitely die.

Zombies' noses were very sensitive. Even if they jumped into the water, they could still smell the blood. Ye Chen didn't continue to hide here. He would be found sooner or later. He suppressed his breath and carefully stepped back. He tried not to make a sound.

Fortunately, Ye Chen usually wore sneakers. If he wore sneakers, there would be a sound when he walked. But sneakers, it was fine as long as he was careful.

One step, one step.

Every step was as long as a few centuries. Ye Chen walked more than ten steps before he retreated to the corner of the stairs. At this time, at the stairs, a young zombie followed the smell of blood. He immediately saw Ye Chen on the stairs. His eyes glowed with bloodthirst. Greedy eyes. He roared and rushed toward Ye Chen.

The young zombie's roar alerted the other three zombies, and they all followed him. When they saw Ye Chen, their eyes lit up, and they rushed over with ferocious faces.

Ye Chen's heart cursed. But he didn't run to the next floor. Because that would attract more zombies. In the end, he would only be exhausted and dismembered. He held the watermelon knife in his hand. His palms were full of cold sweat. But he didn't panic. In the few seconds when the zombie rushed over, he looked around and immediately remembered the surrounding environment.

"Roar!"

The first one rushed down the stairs. Because it was rushing downstairs, it was even more powerful due to inertia. It raised its two claws and tried to grab Ye Chen's shoulders, trying to hold his body in place and bite his throat.

Ye Chen wouldn't let it succeed. His body flashed and moved to the left. At the same time, he kicked the zombie's waist.

He didn't kick from the front. Instead, he kicked from the side.

Otherwise, with this zombie's strength and inertia, it would definitely be able to send him flying.

But when he kicked the side of the zombie's waist, because its lower body was unstable, it immediately fell to the side. Because it was the stairs, it lost its footing and immediately rolled down.

Ye Chen didn't relax. Because the other three zombies also rushed over. In such a short time, he didn't have time to take out a gasoline bottle and ignite it. His body suddenly squatted down. His leg swept out and tripped the leading male zombie's foot.

Because it was running down the stairs, this zombie didn't use much strength. It was tripped and fell. It rolled down the stairs and followed in the footsteps of the previous zombie. And the two zombies behind it, because of the sudden obstruction, they lost their center of gravity and fell down.

At the critical moment, Ye Chen got up and moved to the side. When the female zombie fell down, he suddenly raised his knee and pushed it against her abdomen. The watermelon knife in his hand chopped down and chopped at the back of her neck. This chop used all of his strength. Only a "Ka" sound was heard. This female zombie's neck was cut in half. Only a bit of skin at the throat was left connected to the head. The appearance was extremely frightening.

Ye Chen didn't pay attention to her anymore. Seeing the two zombies that fell down the stairs were about to rush up, he quickly ran upstairs. While running, he opened his trouser pocket and took out a gasoline bottle. At the same time, he took out a match. With an extremely terrifying speed, he quickly opened the matchbox, took out the match, and ignited it!

All of this was so fast that it made people dizzy. If it was an ordinary person, seeing two zombies rushing up from below, I'm afraid that his hands would tremble. How could he be so agile?

"It's over …."

Ye Chen stood at the top of the stairs and ignited the big match. He indifferently looked at the two zombies rushing up and the zombie behind the female zombie. He opened the gasoline bottle in his hand and threw it at the two zombies. The gasoline spilled out of the bottle like tap water. At the same time, Ye Chen's finger gently flicked. The burning match drew a beautiful arc in the air and fell on the gasoline spilled out of the gasoline bottle.

Bang!!

A violent explosion sounded in the corridor. Flames shot everywhere. The screams of the two zombies were covered by the sound of the explosion. After the flames disappeared, there were only two charred zombies left on the stairs. The zombie that got up from the female zombie was also shaken by the force of the explosion and fell to the ground, twitching all over.
