I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 535 - 532

Chapter 535: 532

In the midst of the argument between the man and Old Wang, Ruan Chao’en’s speech reached its climax.

"If we want to survive in this damned post-Apocalypse, we have to make peace with everything. Only peace can bring us the life we want. We are not selfless, we are striving for the future of our own race! The number of zombies is three or four times as many as us! Their higher-level ranks dare not compete with us humans. Perhaps one day we can defeat the zombies, but, is there such a day?"

"Humans are intelligent creatures, no doubt, but don’t forget, the intelligence of zombies is also improving in the process of evolution. With this speed extrapolation, the longer they are given, the more intelligent zombies they will birth. When they develop their own civilization, what can we humans use to fight against zombies?"

"You all should guess what we are going to do, yes, our Peace Party’s goal is to establish peaceful relations with zombies!"

Shocked gasps reverberated through the room.

Once the last sentence was uttered, all the survivors suddenly became restless, their faces filled with disbelief.

"What? Make peace with zombies?"

"Bullshit!"

"Zombies won’t make peace with humans, a bunch of idiots!"

"Zombies don’t have brains, and neither do you?"

Bang!

The murmurings of the crowd were chaotic until a gunshot suppressed all the voices. The person who just said "Zombies don’t have brains, neither do you?" suddenly had a hole in his forehead, he dropped to the ground with a "plop."

"Heh heh...The Peace Party can protect your safety and can also take your lives. Don’t forget, who is protecting you now? This is the Apocalypse, there are no good people here. If I hear anyone insulting the Peace Party again, I won’t mind giving my men the order to start killing!"

Ruan Chao’en gave a mysterious smile. This is how people are, the more you treat them well, the more they take it for granted. Since he joined, or rather from the very beginning, these survivors have never seen the Peace Party kill anyone, they all think the Peace Party are all saints.

The crowd fell silent. Yes, their lives were in the hands of the Peace Party. In the apocalypse, how could those who had evolved to Level 6 be good people?

"Ahhem~" There was a pause, then Ruan Chao’en continued: "Do you think the Peace Party has gone mad? Actually not, our great Marshal, also our president, discovered some truth, all creatures in this world have their unique mercy. Look..."

Ruan Chao’en pointed to the screen behind him, the image on it changed, showing a muscular man holding a child. The man’s face was graced by a hideous scar, wearing a vest revealing his muscular body, wide cargo pants for his lower body, a bloody ax in his hand, and several corpses lying on the ground. He exuded a ruthless aura, even through the screen. It was apparent that he was a desperado!

In his other hand, he was holding a child. This action softened his ruthiness, adding a touch of tenderness.

"The man in the picture is a depraved leader of a motorcycle gang, he’s already dead. After the Apocalypse, he raped and plundered, committed every atrocity, any survivor who passed his territory was brutally killed by him. One day, our Peace Party’s army pointed its blades at him, and his power was crushed one by one. This photo was taken right before his death, before he died, he made his only request. Do you know what it is?"

"What is it?" People became interested in the story. Even though it had nothing to do with the Peace Party’s goal of establishing peace with zombies, humans are curious about massive reveals.

"He’s holding a child who has no relationship with him. Before his death, he begged us to spare her. We agreed. This is his last tenderness towards this world."

Saying this, the projection wall image switched again, this time to a picture of a man and a wild tiger standing together.

"This photo of a man and a wild beast, they..." Ruan Chao’en began to explain the photo, seemingly setting the foundation for his next point.

The image on the screen shifted from one to another, for each image he would provide explanation.

But the Peace Party soldiers standing aside maintained their upright posture and kept focused, their mood in turn affected others, who listened attentively to Ruan Chao’en’s speeches.

Finally, after explaining a picture of a cheetah taking care of a young deer, the image switched again. It was no longer about peace between humans, beasts, and prey, but instead switched to a picture of humans handling food while a swarm of zombies helping on the side.

"Is this... real?"

"Bullshit, right?"

"Still don’t believe it?" Ruan Chao’en waved the remote control and the image switched, transforming into a video.

The once ferocious zombies had turned into "wage earners", helping humans transport supplies onto the truck. The sight caused everyone to blink in disbelief.

"What the hell!" People exclaimed, their eyes widened as their jaws practically hit the floor. They appeared as though they’d just beheld a thing that didn’t belong in the world of the living.

"You guys still don’t believe it, do you?"

Ruan Chao’en gave a smirk, tilting his head towards a Peace Party soldier who quickly understood and led a few others to the large object, shrouded by a red cloth.

"Lift it!"

The troops yelled out and lifted the red cloth, revealing a group of tranquil zombies. In the instant the cloth was lifted, the zombies inside roared at the survivors but, in a strange twist, they acted as if they couldn’t see the Peace Party soldiers and only saw the survivors.

As soon as they saw the zombies, the survivors couldn’t help but retreat a few steps, undisguised terror in their eyes.

In the Apocalypse, the shadow that zombies cast onto them was profound and unforgettable. They couldn’t overcome their fear of zombies. From the moment the Apocalypse struck, the images of their loved ones dying in the jaws of zombies became an insurmountable memory in the heart of every survivor- the reason for their fear.

Once a person feels long-lasting fear towards something, they will develop a shadow in their heart regarding it. In the apocalypse, many people are like this. Only the brave dare to fight, or those who have already eliminated their shadow towards zombies.

Roar!

Thwack! Thwack! Thack

As the zombies opened their mouths, blood ripe with an evil, nauseating smell oozed from between their teeth. It is the smell of zombies!

"Open it!" Ruan Chao’en said nonchalantly. The Peace Party soldiers quickly unlocked the cage, and the zombies rushed towards the survivors like a pack of hungry wolves, skillfully evading the soldiers!

"Damn it! Run!"

"Fuck! Why let the zombies out!"

People moved back, like a tidal wave surging in the opposite direction. A roar of exclamations went off as Ruan Chao’en casually picked up a loudspeaker next to the microphone and announced, "Hey, everyone, don’t run!"
