Apocalypse: King of Zombies

Chapter 457: Top secret

“Let’s go. We’ll head back to our territory in the city first,” Ethan said.

After all, that was still his turf—he couldn’t just abandon it.

The moment Fear and the others heard this, they lit up with excitement.

The days of running… were finally over.

They were going back to their lair.

Without wasting time, Ethan led the Overlord Squad, along with Fear and the rest of his underlings, back into the city.

Before the apocalypse, this place had been known as San Antonio—a pretty sizable city.

Now, though, it was a crumbling wasteland. Buildings had collapsed and were covered in moss. The streets were littered with bones and rotting corpses, half-buried in the rubble.

Ethan also noticed signs of recent human activity—footprints, empty instant noodle wrappers, the plastic skins from hot dogs.

“Humans have been here?” he asked.

“Yeah, yeah,” Fear nodded quickly. “After Genesis Biotech drove us out, the place turned into a ghost town. A lot of humans started coming here to scavenge for supplies.”

“Most of the big supermarkets and storage facilities have already been picked clean, but people still find stuff in old homes—canned food that’s still good for another couple years, and other useful things. Some folks even treat it like a game, exploring for fun.”

“Huh. That does sound kinda fun,” Ethan said, nodding. The idea of wandering through an empty city, going house to house, did have a certain treasure-hunt vibe to it.
