A Filthy Rich Hamster in the Apocalypse

C74

Nie Xiao asked Xiao WuYi as he carried him while walking. The zombies surrounding them weren’t his opponent at all, and they were easily destroyed by him.

Faced with Nie Xiao’s question, Xiao WuYi slightly creased his small brows, thought about it for a moment and raised his head. “Daddy, the biggest difference is probably Brother Bai Mei’s alive, and the other zombies don’t have any life!!!”

Judging from Bai Mei’s external appearance and his ability to control low-level zombies, there was no doubt that he was a zombie king. But according to Xiao WuYi’s comparison just now, it can be seen that although Bai Mei was a zombie, he was fundamentally different from ordinary zombies.

Apart from his strength and clear-headedness, there was, in fact, a faint breath of life hidden in Bai Mei’s body, and it was merely buried by the dense breath of decay and death, which made it seem not so eye-catching.

Xiao WuYi carefully recalled and told him how he had felt when being in contact with Bai Mei, “Daddy, didn’t you find that Brother Bai Mei didn’t have any rancid smell? Although his restorative medicine lost its effectiveness, which made him change back to the distinctive appearance of zombies and made his skin become pale, fragile with decay, there was no unpleasant smell on his body!!! When he wears Sislow’s black robe to cover up those obvious features, you won’t find too many abnormalities at a glance. Otherwise, the smell alone would’ve caused suspicion when we returned to the base!”

Having it explained this way, Nie Xiao couldn’t help but also think of Bai Mei’s difference. He had to admit that among the many zombies, Bai Mei really stood out and was beautiful. Although he could be identified as a zombie at a glance, except for his pale ice-cold skin, long fangs, and blue-black nails… and other obvious zombie features, there were indeed no traces of ugliness or rancid smell.

Sometimes he was more biased towards the beautiful vampires in the movies than the zombies. However, Nie Xiao and the others had always thought that he was a zombie king with unique characteristics.

While Nie Xiao was thinking, Xiao WuYi continued to speak while touching his chin, “Not only does Brother Bai Mei look good and not smell bad, but Baby also won’t be uncomfortable like earlier when being near him! Even though there’s still a lot of death aura in him, Baby can feel the touch of vitality hidden in a deeper place. Although this vitality is covered up and is very weak and small, it’s still a huge gap from those ordinary zombies just now!”

“That’s why Baby said from the beginning that Brother Bai Mei’s alive!!! Baby’s power of vitality should also work on Brother Bai Mei, but it wouldn’t when used on these ordinary zombies that are completely dead.”

Xiao WuYi hugged Nie Xiao’s neck. Looking at the ugly zombies that were wandering and scattered around the roadside, with organs falling out and without any self-consciousness, he exclaimed, “They’re really very different!”

Nie Xiao completely believed what Xiao WuYi had said. His own cub had no reason to lie about this matter, and he had absolute proficiency when appraising a creature’s breath.

But what was going on with the vitality that existed in Bai Mei’s body? Could this vitality be the root cause of Bai Mei becoming the zombie king? The reason behind the differences in appearance and smell between him and ordinary zombies?

Why was it Bai Mei alone who was sober, why did he possess self-consciousness, and what was the relationship between this and that wisp of vitality?

Nie Xiao suddenly knitted his brows and fell into contemplation.

Xiao WuYi saw Nie Xiao’s tightly furrowed brows. He couldn’t help but stretch out his little finger to rub the gully between his eyebrows, forcing it to smoothen. He asked worriedly, “Daddy, what are you thinking about again?”
