Rat in the gutter

Since the day before yesterday, after bidding farewell to the women on the island, Elijah continued westward alone with Abigail and a group of zombies, relying on their invisibility abilities.

During their journey, they encountered numerous dangers, such as massive hordes of zombies exceeding tens of thousands, which they deliberately avoided.

They also faced mutated zombies unafraid of the group of second-tier zombies around Elijah, but these attackers were dispatched by Elijah and their corpse cores harvested.

This afternoon, Elijah suddenly sensed that the consciousness link to a zombie under his control had vanished.

As he and Abigail investigated, they discovered that the zombie had been silently eliminated, with even its corpse core gone.

This was a first for Elijah! To have a second-tier zombie killed right under his nose raised immediate concern.
