Chapter 534: The Magical Use of Corpse Puppetry

Moreover, this mutated zombie is particularly sensitive to light and sound.

Therefore, at night, except for a few large bases, some small survivor bases did not dare to turn on generators even if they had them, for fear of attracting these things.

At the beginning, when this mutated night demon appeared, many humans were not aware of its characteristics. When the night demon attacked the survivor base, the two sides fought a fierce battle, and many humans and night demons died.

But the problem is that the more you fight the night demons, the more they appear, but this is not the case with humans. If it were before the end of the world, humans would have a stable environment and sufficient supply of materials, and the population would naturally grow explosively.

But after the end of the world, there are dangers everywhere. A large number of people died and were converted into zombies. Over the years, the area that humans can control has gradually shrunk, making life more and more difficult for humans.

Therefore, when humans gradually figured out the habits of these night demons, they naturally chose to lie down, because as long as you don't turn on the lights, hide in the building and don't make any noise, you can naturally avoid the harassment of the night demons.

Of course, every time the night demon attacks, there are always some people who go out fearlessly and then become food in the night demon's mouth.

However, as time went by, there were fewer and fewer such people. After all, those who were brave and fearless of death either became strong and went to larger bases, or died.

Only newcomers like Qiao Gang, Qin Chong and the other two would stand outside the house so carefree after dark.

"Are you hiding from those things?"

"Shh, brother, keep your voice down, it will really attract those monsters here."

Qiao Gang didn't take the man's advice to heart at all, and his voice remained unchanged, which made the man's face turn pale.

"Don't worry, they won't come over. Even if they do, I can help you deal with them." Qiao Gang said, looking out the window.

As he spoke, Qiao Gang glanced at Li Da again. Li Da seemed to know what he meant and nodded slightly.

"How dare you?"

The kind-hearted man thought that the three people he rescued might be crazy, but after waiting for a long time, nothing happened, and a strange look appeared on his face.

Why didn’t these night demons come over?

He looked at the sky outside suspiciously and confirmed that it was indeed those night demons. One night not long ago, a family had attracted them because of a trivial matter.

The next day, when everyone went to check, all that was left in the house were body parts scattered all over the floor!

In the deep night sky, those night demons were dancing in the air, sometimes left, sometimes right. Occasionally a few of them flew to the ground and then flew into the sky again. Everyone who saw them couldn't help but hold their breath, fearing that they would suddenly fly towards them.

The man didn't know that Li Da's superpower was the corpse puppet technique. This superpower naturally had a suppressive effect on zombies. As long as Li Da was there, it couldn't be said to be absolutely safe, but most zombies would subconsciously stay away.

It was for this reason that Qiao Gang was so sure that this place was safe.

But the man didn't know all this. He tensed his body, fearing that any danger would come. But tonight was different. Three guests came, and his kindness was actually rewarded.

Compared to his fear, Qiao Gang and the other two seemed quite relaxed. Although the night demons flying in the air looked scary, none of them approached the low house.

The "ga ga ga" screams continued. The night demons flying in the air all sensed Li Da's suppression of their bloodlines, while none of the survivors below could hear the fear in their screams. They were afraid of something.

However, it was unwilling to give up its prey, so it kept circling in the air.

……

After a long while, the man seemed to realize that it was just as Qiao Gang said. The night demons did not retreat just because of the loud noise. He couldn't help but ask, "Why?"

"There's no reason. They just won't come over. You can rest assured. But, don't go out."

Qiao Gang's voice remained the same, without any sign of restraint, but just as he said, there was really no sign of any of the night demons outside flying over. The man was surprised, but did not say much.

Something was a little unusual today. Looking at Qiao Gang's tall and strong figure and Li Da's stunning appearance, the man knew that these three people were not simple.

Perhaps, those night demons were also because of these three people, but he also believed that it was because of the good sound insulation of the house.

He didn't know much about this kind of thing, but he had never spoken loudly at night while here, and he didn't know if the night demons flying in the air outside could hear him.

But if the sound insulation is good, then why can he hear the sharp screams of those night demons?

It's impossible that sound travels in one direction, right?

In the past, if the survivors had talked too loudly, they would definitely have been heard by the night demons flying in the sky, and then they would have become their food!

"I don't have any food here, so you guys stay here for a while. After tonight, we can find a place to stay."

The man said this in a sullen tone, with an awkward smile on his face. His sunken cheeks looked even uglier in the eyes of the three people.

He really didn't have any food to entertain the guests. He didn't have the conditions to do so. Besides, he had been hungry for several days. The reason he let the three people in was that for some reason, he made such a decision in a daze.

Perhaps, he didn't want these three new fools to die here on the first day.

It is undeniable that even though it has been three years since the end of the world, this man's heart has not been completely swallowed by the darkness of the end of the world.

Seeing that the three people were unmoved by his words, Qiao Gang stared outside as if in a daze, while Qin Zhong and Li Da each lowered their heads, as if thinking about something, as if they didn't hear what he said.

Seeing this scene, the man stood up awkwardly, supported himself with a cane, limped to the cabinet next to him, took out a piece of metal material from it, sat back in the chair and started tinkering with it.

At this moment, Qin Zhong discovered that the man's legs were not the same length. His left foot was normal, but his right foot was missing. To be precise, the sole of his foot was missing, and the right foot without the sole was clearly visible.

There are fresh traces of fading scars on the empty ankles. It must have become like this after the end of the world.

Watching the man dismantling the metal in his hands, Qin Zhong had no idea what he was doing. Anyway, he didn't understand. It happened that he was bored at night, so Qin Zhong started chatting with the man out of curiosity.

"Brother, what's wrong with your foot?" Qin Zhong's voice rang out. The man was suddenly startled when he heard it, and he looked at Qin Zhong and smiled kindly.

A trace of memory flashed across the man's face, and within that memory was a trace of pain. Under Qin Zhong's gaze, he began to speak.

"My foot... was cut off by my wife."

"Oh, your wife?" Qin Zhong's face showed a strange expression. He thought to himself, "So violent? Could it be because of an affair?"

Although he thought so, Qin Zhong did not show any expression on his face. He just listened quietly to the man telling how his foot became like this.
