Chapter 99: Fish That Slipped Through the Net?
There were actually fish that had slipped through the net? The bombardment just now had a range comparable to that of a bomber—far beyond what a bomber could achieve—and its destructive
power was immense. Every shell had an effective
attack range of over a hundred meters. Within a fifty-meter radius, there were almost no intact corpses left, and even within a hundred meters, the damage was enough to be fatal. Yet there were actually
still some that had survived?
While I was momentarily stunned, the voice behind me came again. Although it still sounded stiff, it was obvious
that this voice was somewhat different from
the other walking corpses.
I slapped both hands against the ground and launched myself into the air, turning at the same time and landing on the slanted wall. My knees bent slightly, and I prepared
myself to meet the battle at any moment. However,
the walking corpse opposite me did not attack right away. Instead, it stood only five meters away and looked at me calmly.
"Hello..."
You... hello?
This walking corpse was actually greeting me?
How was that possible?
No... It wasn't the walking corpse greeting me. It was that blue gel-like substance inside its brain.
Could they actually think?
"What exactly are you?"
I frowned as I looked at the walking corpse before me. It was no different from the others, and its body was the same color as a normal person's,
but it was obvious that its face carried
a grayish-black hue.
It was very polite. Faced with my question, it avoided answering. Its voice was extremely calm, without much fluctuation.
"You aren't human... so why did you attack us?"
Oh? What was this supposed to mean?
"Why do you think I'm not human?"
