Into the Zombie World

"Hahaha, that… that\'s too funny." The man replied doing his best to force out a not so fake laugh. 

He could only do so, afraid that Nile might kill him instantly if he didn\'t laugh. 

Nile shrugged his shoulder seeing the man laugh. In truth, the ground below the man really isn\'t that wet, just a little.

He took a glance at the System Map again and noticed that the six approaching humans are getting closer. They have sped up a bit. 

He planned on interrogating the man before him but it looks like he could only postpone it. 

He jumps off Maximo\'s back and patted its belly. He then went towards Croco and sat beside him. 

It\'s Maximo\'s turn to fight as Croco was resting. And besides, he could feel its eagerness to fight, or rather to show off. 

He didn\'t find it a problem as it could also help Maximo digest the foods he ate earlier. It could help him evolve faster. 

Maximo was fully ready, he stood on all fours as his nose oozed imaginary smokes. His front right hood was scratching the ground, ready to charge.

His remaining eye glared fiercely ahead of him. It was the area where his master said the opponents would come. 

"Do your best, Max. I will also give you a jumbo lollipop regardless of the outcome." Nile said, cheering the excited carabao. 

The six approaching humans were weaker than the one Croco had faced, he knew it based on the size of their respective dots. He knew that Maximo could deal with them just fine. 

After around a minute, the group finally arrived while panting heavily. 

Seeing the lifeless body around, they instantly raised their respective weapon in caution. 

They heard the commotion earlier, hence they decided to check. They thought that the other group had already faced an animal. They were afraid to be left behind in case the others won\'t leave them with animal meats to eat. 

However, they didn\'t expect that the situation was opposite to what they have inferred.

An enraged carabao was waiting for them, the lifeless body of their companions littered the surroundings like garbage scattered around after a feast. 

They nervously looked behind the carabao and they saw a person with a mask besides a mutated crocodile. The crocodile was licking its side belly like a cat while a stick was stuck on its mouth.

The man\'s eyes stared at them like a predator. 

Not far away from the man with a mask, they could also see another person with beggar clothes. Seeing that, they instantly show a hint of surprise. 

It was one of them. That outfit was familiar to them, he was the only one who decided to dirty his clothes before they set out earlier. 

Seeing him kneeling on the ground like it was his mother, they nervously gulp a mouthful of saliva. One of them even choked because of the action.

Clang!

A person suddenly throws his customized dagger to the ground. He then went on his knees and raised two of his hands up in the air in surrender. "I surrender! Please don\'t kill me!"

Seeing the dead bodies around, he already guessed that something was wrong. And seeing the kneeling companion, he instantly knew what was happening. He didn\'t waste any time as he decided to surrender immediately.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

Seeing the example, the remaining five also dropped their weapons to the ground doing exactly what the first man did. They are not dumb, they knew that the situation was very creepy and unfavorable to them.

They have seen humans getting bitten to death by the zombies, humans getting killed by other humans. 

But this was the first time they saw such a brutal scene. 

Heads were separated from the neck while arms and legs were scattered around them. 

Seeing something like that, who would not chicken? 

And besides, those bodies came from their companions who were stronger than them. If that kind of peoples were chopped mercilessly, how much more if it was them. 

The best move would be to surrender. They don\'t know if the man would spare them, but at least, they still have a chance to live.

Seeing them surrender unceremoniously, Nile was taken aback. 

\'Attack them after they closed in five meters from you!\' 

That was his latest command to Maximo. It was the optimal distance where Maximo could sprint and arrived instantly. He thought that such a move would at least take one of the opponent\'s life.

Maximo was even bewildered than his master was. 

What is happening, I thought I\'m gonna fight them? Why are they kneeling like idiots there? I\'m very confused right now.

He looks back at Nile asking for his guidance. 

Seeing that, Nile shrugged his shoulder helplessly.

He didn\'t think that they would surrender immediately. It was not part of his plan.

\'Aren\'t they the reinforcement? Why did they surrender instantly? Well, they are quite weak for reinforcement, does that mean they aren\'t?\' Nile said internally.

He thought that they would at least rage upon seeing the lifeless bodies. 

\'That\'s what usually happens right?\' 

However, recalling their expressions earlier, it was apparent that they were in the same group. 

\'Then? Why aren\'t you mad?\'

\'Come on! Get mad and insult us so that we could have a reason to kill you!\' Nile\'s outside appearance was calm, but his inner feelings were already screaming wildly. 

He was in a dilemma. It was apparent that the new group was also part of the previous one he killed, but the new group was still innocent, they still haven\'t insulted, threatened, or said something. 

They surrendered instantly as soon as they arrived. 

He glanced at Maximo who was also staring at him, waiting for the order to kill. 

The group was at least 10 meters away from Maximo, the order was to fight them only after 5 meters. 

"Wait a minute and keep an eye on them." Nile finally said. 

He turned his head and glanced at the kneeling man beside him. 

The newly arrived group\'s life would depend on what this man will say. 

He decided to question him in front of them.
