Chapter 109: The Controlled Tyrant
The middle-aged man with glasses, known as Thunder King, touched the pistol at his waist and proudly said:
"Hmph! You bastards only know how to play with women. If it weren't for me letting you out and using such a great method to trick people into coming here for you to play with and eat, you would have starved to death long ago!"
Yan Gaoyang disdainfully glanced at the pistol on Thunder King's waist and, with a twitch of his mouth, grabbed Lu Yingying's hair and said, "This woman was brought here by me. I want to keep her for my amusement. Before I get tired of her, none of you are allowed to kill her!"
"As long as you and Xu Senjie can ensure a steady supply, you can play with this little woman as long as you want! I don't care about what you do!" the middle-aged man known as Thunder King retorted with disdain.
Then he said seriously:
"Now, let's not talk about these things, we have more important matters to focus on!"
The middle-aged man, known as Thunder King, pulled out a still-beating heart, squinted his eyes in admiration, and then handed it to a man in a white coat next to him, who was numbly eating meat, saying, "Go, feed this heart to our precious one! As long as our precious one evolves, you will have made a great contribution! The organization will surely reward you handsomely!"
The man in the white coat nodded, took the heart without another word, and walked out the door.
Alex continued to control the Four-Eyed Magic Crow and followed.
Soon, the man in the white coat stopped outside a hospital room.
The room's silver-white door plate bore three red characters: "Electrotherapy Room."
On the iron door of the electrotherapy room, there was a sinister red skull painted.
Through the iron bars of the hospital room window, Alex saw a man in a white coat and a bulky zombie confined inside.
The zombie had a silvery body, with its purple heart exposed outside, only wrapped in a layer of something like hardened film, beating violently.
Its left arm, with long silver claws, had been chopped off, and the soft tentacle of the right arm was nowhere to be seen.
"Tyrant!" Alex's eyes lit up. The zombie before him was a special kind that could allow zombie looters to merge and evolve – the king among B-grade zombies: the Tyrant!
However, this Tyrant looked nothing like the king of B-grade zombies.
This bulky Tyrant not only had its hands and feet rendered useless, but its entire body was also wrapped in copper wire, and even a dagger connected to an electric wire was inserted into its chest.
Seeing someone enter, the Tyrant zombie growled lowly, as if wanting to rise and approach.
At that moment, the man in the white coat who had been watching the Tyrant zombie immediately turned on the electric switch!
"Click!"
"Zzzzz~~~~~" A fierce current surged through, and the Tyrant zombie let out a wail, its body trembling continuously.
Especially, the electrified dagger in the Tyrant zombie's chest immediately stopped its violently beating heart.
After the Tyrant zombie calmed down, the white-coated man in charge of guarding turned off the electric switch.
This time, the Tyrant zombie became much more docile, whimpering softly, then looking at the man in front of it with an obedient open mouth, making a pleading sound akin to a dog.
The man with the heart, expressionless, walked up to the Tyrant zombie and skillfully threw the heart into its wide-open mouth.
The Tyrant zombie chewed the heart with relish and then raised its head, letting out a series of eerie howls around it.
Through the eyes of the Four-Eyed Magic Crow, Alex saw a wave of sound continuously spreading outward.
Around the hospital, the ordinary zombies that were somewhat eager to approach were instantly driven away by this wave of sound.
Meanwhile, a few C-grade mutant zombies in the distance, as if receiving some command, staggered around the hospital, emitting whines towards the location of the Tyrant zombie inside.
This was a response to the Tyrant zombie's howls!
Indeed, the Tyrant zombie could control other zombies through psychic waves!
With this observation, it made sense why there were no zombies around the Fourth People's Hospital.
Ordinary zombies, or those mutant zombies not strong enough, would not dare to approach this place after receiving the Tyrant zombie's warning waves.
For B-grade and below zombies, the Tyrant zombie is the king among zombies!
Its presence and psychic sound waves were enough to instill fear in ordinary zombies and bring them under the Tyrant zombie's control. exclusive-content-MvLeMpYr
Alex didn't know how these people managed to control the Tyrant zombie, and these people even discovered that feeding the Tyrant zombie hearts could control it.
Listening to what the middle-aged man known as Thunder King said, their actions seemed to be aimed at feeding the Tyrant zombie, waiting for its evolution.
The unique thought processes of psychiatric patients indeed surprised Alex.
But regardless, the actions of these psychiatric patients were very clever.
Especially Yan Gaoyang and Thunder King, Alex even felt that these two were talents.
"Great! Killing these people will not only give us a helicopter but also easily capture a Tyrant zombie!"
Alex closed the visual feed and called over Si Ruqing and the others who were patrolling, asking,
"Who among you knows how to fly a helicopter?"
Si Ruqing was slightly startled, then nodded and said, "I have flown one before… but I don't have a helicopter pilot's license…"
Si Ruqing had learned to fly helicopters during her time at the police academy. Although she wasn't very proficient, she understood the basic operations.
"That's enough," Alex nodded with satisfaction.
In such an apocalypse, being able to fly was all that mattered. Who would care about having a license?
"Get your gear ready and bring Keke with you. We're going out."
Alex had already understood the situation inside the Fourth People's Hospital.
It was a group of psychiatric patients who had taken control of the hospital, using the helicopter to lure survivors from the nearby area to the Fourth People's Hospital, then killing them for food to sustain their lives.
These people, aside from being able to deceive simpletons like Lu Yingying, were actually of no use at all.
Alex could kill all of them single-handedly.
However, the helicopter and the Tyrant zombie they controlled were very useful to Alex.
Taking Keke and Si Ruqing with him in the Strangler armored vehicle, and bringing along the Zombie Looter, Alex drove straight to the Fourth People's Hospital.
Meanwhile, inside the Fourth People's Hospital, Yan Gaoyang and several other men in white coats looked at Lu Yingying and the customer service girl lying on the bed, barely alive, and smiled wickedly, pleased with themselves.
