Novel Bin Chapter 17 Lose One's Sanity
Sally was stunned as she watched the sword suddenly appear in David\'s hand. Just a moment ago, she saw that David had nothing in his hand. In an instant, David seemed to perform a magic trick and pulled out a black long sword from somewhere. Meanwhile, the employee who had been twitching on the ground had now managed to get up, with obvious signs of zombification on his face. Seeing the low-level zombie in front of him, David felt a familiar sensation returning. He had dealt with zombies every day in his previous life during the apocalypse, and he had grown accustomed to not seeing zombies for a while.
After summoning the alloy sword, David then summoned his armor. Just like countless times before, he took out the armor from his storage space and neatly put it on. Sally was already baffled by the appearance of the sword in David\'s hand, and now he suddenly had a complete set of black armor on him, tightly wrapped. Sally was filled with shock in her eyes. She had thought David was just an ordinary office worker, but now she couldn\'t understand the man in front of her at all. With the armor in place, David approached the zombie, which was just a low-level one.
At this stage, zombies were the weakest. They moved relatively slowly, had no intelligence, and relied solely on instinctive behavior like wild animals. With the protection of the armor, even if David stood still and let them bite, they wouldn\'t be able to break through his defenses. The current zombies had not yet evolved sharp teeth and fangs. The only noteworthy aspect about them was their strength, which far surpassed that of ordinary humans. Perhaps due to the release of bodily restrictions by the virus parasitizing their brains, these zombies often exhibited strength several times greater than their former selves.
"Roar!" The zombie in front of David let out a low roar and charged towards him. David raised his sword and performed a swift slash. The alloy sword, a product of the system, had a sharp blade that effortlessly sliced through the zombie\'s neck. The zombie\'s head fell to the ground, and its body collapsed. Destroying the central nervous system was the only way to kill a zombie, and a headshot was the most effective method.
However, human skulls are relatively hard, and there is a risk of weapons getting stuck, so decapitation is also a good choice as it quickly renders the zombie incapacitated. Nevertheless, a decapitated zombie can still bite for about a minute. Just make sure not to get bitten by the severed head. After killing the zombie, David continued forward with the sword in hand. He was currently in the fresh produce area of the supermarket, deep inside. The chaos that occurred at the supermarket entrance had attracted most of the people there, so there weren\'t many zombies where he was. After taking a few steps, David noticed that Sally was still standing there, dazed.
He furrowed his brow. "What are you doing? Hurry up and follow me." Sally snapped out of her trance and nodded as if awakening from a dream. "Oh, right." Just a moment ago, David effortlessly killed a zombie with his swift sword strike. Although it seemed effortless, his movements were incredibly fast, far beyond what an ordinary person could achieve. Sally couldn\'t even clearly see his actions.
Sally quickly realized that David was incredibly powerful, and following him closely might be her only chance of survival. A man was crouched on the ground with a woman who was convulsing violently, her arm covered in blood from a recent zombie bite. The man, covered in bloodstains, frantically pulled out his phone, seemingly attempting to make a call.
Suddenly, the woman sat up abruptly and lunged at the man beside her. The man screamed in terror, dropping his phone to the ground. As the woman was about to bite his neck, the man used his arm to shield himself. She bit down on his arm, tearing off a large piece of flesh.
"Ah!" The man let out a cry of pain. "What\'s wrong with you, honey? It\'s me!" The man couldn\'t understand why his wife, whom he had been with day and night, had suddenly turned into this horrifying creature. After swallowing the flesh in her mouth, the woman opened her mouth again, ready to bite the man. At that moment, a flash of a blade passed between the woman\'s neck.
A moment later, a smooth and clean cut appeared on the woman\'s neck, blood gushing out. Her head fell into the man\'s arms. "Ah, you... you killed my wife..." The man looked at David with bloodshot eyes. David looked at him as if he were an idiot. "Can\'t you see that she turned into a zombie?" The man gritted his teeth, filled with hatred.
"She... she was just sick. Why did you kill her? Why..." "Give me back my wife!" The man, who had lost his wife, lost his sanity for a moment and charged at David. But in David\'s eyes, the man\'s movements seemed slow-motion.
He raised his alloy warblade and swung it, effortlessly cutting the man in half. After dealing with the man in front of him, David expressionlessly waved his blade, flinging off the bloodstains.
"David..." Sally\'s face turned pale, her voice trembling like a mosquito. Her legs and hands were trembling slightly. While Sally could understand David killing zombies, he had just killed a living person. Although Sally knew that the man had been bitten and would eventually turn into a zombie, as someone living in a society governed by the rule of law, she found it difficult to accept the act of killing. Moreover, David\'s indifferent expression frightened her. Killing seemed insignificant to him. Sally, after all, was an ordinary woman living in peacetime, never having witnessed such a scene. In this moment, the oppressive feeling brought upon her by this killing-machine-like man was not much less than that of the zombies.
"What is it?" David glanced at Sally indifferently.
In that instant when Sally was about to speak up, David had already made up his mind. If she had any objections, he would not hesitate to leave her behind. Sally swallowed her saliva, her eyes slightly reddened, and her whole body trembled like a sieve, clearly displaying her immense fear.
However, it was unclear how much of her fear was from the zombies . Sally lowered her head, too afraid to look into David\'s eyes, and shook her head slightly. "It\'s nothing."
David smiled, relieved that she was a clever woman, saving him the trouble. He didn\'t say anything and continued walking towards the entrance of the supermarket.
