Chapter 19: Mutation Testing (2)
[Subject: J#117’s Evolution potential increased to 93%]
"Grr..."
Right on time.
Blaze wiped his mouth clean as numerous zombies growled outside. They were hungry, like he had been moments ago.
Only after eating the crawler’s brain, did Blaze realize something. The undead didn’t care about the food source. An elite zombie didn’t taste as good as a human, but it didn’t matter before hunger.
If one is dying of hunger, they won’t care if they eat at a Michelin restaurant or a street-side one.
For them, humans were Michelin-level food and other zombies were street food. Unfortunately, most humans didn’t venture out at night, leaving the undead to feed on one another.
Their hunger was the primary reason for their sudden evolution.
Now Blaze was hungry, too. Hungry to evolve. Though it remained a mystery where what he ate disappeared to. It wasn’t his stomach, because he didn’t have any. Perhaps it was directly getting converted into energy or whatever the undead ran on.
I’ll think about it later.
Blaze rushed outside, jumping over the walkers. He, too, was a walker, but his stats didn’t reflect his class.
