The red-eyed zombie climbed the stairs slowly. Xu Ningyu continued his mindless assault on the door.
I watched the red-eyed zombie stop behind him, tilting its head as it observed Xu Ningyu.
Then, it hissed at him.
Xu Ningyu paused for a split second, then resumed banging.
I thought I must be going mad. Did I just see a look of confusion on a zombie’s face?
The red-eyed zombie hissed twice more. Xu Ningyu remained unresponsive.
Tian Tian whispered, "Jiajia, he’s not listening to the red-eyed one. Do you think that zombie’s getting mad?"
I shook my head. Humans turned into zombies lost their ability to think.
However special the red-eyed one seemed, it couldn't have evolved that level of intelligence so quickly.
But the next second, the two zombies were locked in combat.
It genuinely looked like the red-eyed zombie was punishing Xu Ningyu for disobedience.
It was the first time I’d witnessed zombies fighting each other.
