Shortly after the South Arican Zombie King Camutos entered the Chinese Continent, so reconnaissance posts set up by survivor forces in various old-era cities observed that the Water Guanyin zombie tide, which had been lingering in the sea, began to move.

At the first sign of anomalies, many survivor bases imdiately intensified their reconnaissance efforts. Thus, on October 14th of the thirteenth year of the apocalypse, it was confird that the Water Guanyin zombie tide was on the move. A few days later, a video about the Water Guanyin zombie tide sparked an uproar online!

Millions of Water Guanyin zombies began to co ashore, their countless massive figures seemingly draining the world of its rightful colors!

The rumbling sounded everywhere, drowning out all other sounds of the world; the terrifying scene could suffocate even across a screen!

As the vast Water Guanyin zombie tide ca ashore, the earth itself could hardly bear their weight and started to collapse. The flooding subrged so coastal cities and earthquakes occurred frequently in many places!

Besides, the Cortland Sanctuary City in the southwest detected the Abyssal Zombie King from the Flaming Sand Continent leading a horde of zombies towards the Chinese Continent. After reaching it, they made no stops and directly entered the continent. In just one day, three survivor bases fell consecutively, though two narrowly escaped destruction.

Of course, by escape, it ans that the inhabitants weren’t slaughtered by the zombie tide.

Unsurprisingly, these two survivor bases have been fenced in by zombies!

As for the survivor base that did not "escape," its natural fate was complete collapse. The only ones truly spared were the pregnant won, who were transferred to the other two fenced-in bases once the base was declared destroyed.

Notably, the information about these two fenced-in survivor bases sparked a huge commotion outside!

If they hadn’t been fenced in, perhaps the entire survivor base would have been slaughtered! This would only make people more determined to fight to the death against the zombie tide! After all, once a base falls, all that awaits people is death. With no retreat, humans beco as fierce as beasts!

For the sake of their lives, many had no choice but to take up arms and fight against the zombie tide, to seize a chance to survive!

But this containnt gave so people a ridiculous "hope"!

Being ruled by high-level zombies is survival, and being fenced in by high-level zombies is also survival! More damaging is that after those two survivor bases were fenced in, they surprisingly gained a large farming area with the help of so high-level zombies, where people could produce crops safely. This is outright soul-crushing!

For a ti, regarding the arrival of the Zombie King, so people no longer felt initial fear but instead experienced a hint of anticipation. Even within the Cloud Gorge Base, advertisents for "gender reassignnt surgery" and "handsoly rewarded childbearing" were plastered everywhere in streets and alleys during this period!

Such situations arose because reproduction is key to a race’s continuation. The high-level zombies evidently realized this. Whenever a zombie tide broke through a survivor base, if they chose not to slaughter it to imdiately satiate their hunger, within the fenced-in survivor bases, the won received priority care, and pregnant won in particular possessed a proverbial get-out-of-jail-free card!

There were even reports from one of the fenced-in survivor bases that a pregnant woman had the right to command zombies to work for her!

How could that not drive people insane?

It was due to this that advertisents like these flooded many bases and sanctuary cities, with doctors possessing such techniques earning a fortune in no ti!

Though so people looked forward to the early arrival of the Zombie King, that was not all. Many did not want to be fenced in by zombies, as accepting that ant humans truly beca no different from pigs, sheep, or cattle!

So were willing to abandon their dignity for a better life, but others didn’t want to beco re livestock to be slaughtered at will. However, compared to the forr, the latter group was divided into two parts: one part picked up weapons, preparing to fight the approaching Zombie King to the end! And the other part began devising plans to escape the Chinese Continent.

For instance, now that the Zombie King has arrived on the Chinese Continent, the lands where they belonged no longer face the threat of a Zombie King, naturally leading so to consider raiding the Zombie King’s holand. However, such actions are rather impulsive and lack rationality.

So people also set their sights on Australia. On the various continents dominated by Zombie Kings, Australia seed to lack presence, yet it was undeniable from an objective perspective that now Australia was, for many, the safest place on Earth!

There was no Zombie King there. Although the number of Level 8 zombies was also considerable, compared to the numbers on the continents, they were like a small fish next to a giant one.

According to Tang Ye, although Australia wasn’t ravaged by a Zombie King, most of it was already occupied by the "World Tree," and the people living there mainly gathered towards the southern regions. Not only did they have to constantly guard against zombie hordes, but they also had to be wary of evolutionary beasts collectively undertaking excursions.

About two years ago, a group of survivors from Australia fled to a small base in China. They said that shortly after the apocalypse began, a strange disease beca prevalent. There is no unified na for this disease yet, but locals usually call it "Iron Worm Infection," and those afflicted seem to be parasitized by so kind of zombified parasite.

The disease progresses through four stages. In the first stage, the infected show no abnormalities, appearing just like normal people.

In the second stage, the patient’s nails, teeth, hair, and other body parts successively fall off. In Australia, once such symptoms appear on a body, it’s almost certainly deed as "Iron Worm Infection."

In the third stage, the patient’s skin rapidly ulcerates over several days, accompanied by mory loss and severe disruption of bodily coordination!

The fourth stage, the final stage, ans the patient is not far from death. The only help is to throw their body into a fiery pit while they’re still conscious. If left untreated, the parasites within the patient multiply faster over ti, eventually taking over and completely controlling the patient’s body!

However, there are successful parasitism cases and unsuccessful ones. In cases of failure, the patient’s stomach bursts from inside out, and the innurable snake-like parasites crawl out from every corner of the organs!

In the final stage of failed parasitism, the patient resembles a mantis parasitized by Iron Worms jumping into water. That’s one reason why locals nad this disease "Iron Worm Infection."

The terrifying thing about this disease is that no one can prevent it, and even New Humans can get infected at a rate no lower than ordinary people!

Once contracted, it is incurable! It’s even scarier than cancer by several degrees!

No patient knows how they beca infected, and by just two years ago, seven Level 8 New Humans had died from infection in Australia alone!
