Chapter 235 The Invincible Young Hero and the Survivor Squad

Upon seeing the newcomer's appearance, the invincible young hero was immediately startled and uttered a curse:

"A generous gift of crab!"

Joey glanced at the startled young hero and kindly offered a reminder:

"Just in case you don't know, you are the 'Invincible Young Hero'."

These zombies are essentially just living bodies, with physical functions even inferior to those of healthy humans, posing no threat whatsoever to a Voidman or a Kryptonian.

"This world really terrifies me."

Mark removed his hood, revealing his East Asian face, and carefully wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, avoiding the wound.

He is indeed the "Invincible Young Hero," but he is also just a high school student who has recently graduated:

"I've only ever seen these unscientific things on TV and in comics before!"

Joey chuckled at the mention of "unscientific," especially since this conversation took place between a Kryptonian and a Voidian.

"Come on, compared to an alien with superhuman strength, a body of steel, and the ability to fly, the existence of these zombies is much more scientific."

The idea that dead bodies can turn into zombies and move around and bite living people may sound like science fiction, but it's not impossible for it to happen in a scientifically minded world.

Who knows, one day some rabies virus strain might mutate and develop such efficacy.

After using his super vision to scan the bodies of the people present, Joey, who already had a general idea of ​​what was going on, still needed to do a final confirmation.

Take good care of yourself.

After instructing Mark to stay put, Joey slowly rose into the sky, crossing the North American continent and the Atlantic Ocean, flying eastward towards Western Europe.

"I need to go and solve some of the world's problems."

The Kryptonians' supersensory abilities are not a blessing, but a curse.

Joey thought the only reason someone like Clark Kent hadn't gone mad, besides having a passionate heart, was probably because, like himself, he wouldn't keep that ability active all the time.

There were far too many screams and cries for help coming from all directions.

With his thermal vision activated, Joey precisely targeted and eliminated zombies that were about to cause harm or had already caused harm across the entire atmosphere high in the sky, while gradually drifting towards Western Europe.

He naturally didn't know where the zombie virus sweeping the world came from or where it started, but the zombie virus was, after all, an infectious disease, and its spread and mutation naturally had to follow the laws of pathology.

The closer to the source of the virus's initial spread, the more complex the virus's transmission and mutation process should become.

Following this line of thought, Joey spent a long time calculating the propagation trajectory and then decided, "Forget it."

It turns out that as long as the processor runs fast enough, you don't need to optimize the algorithm at all.

In the end, Joey chose to simply and directly use his super vision to travel through all the locations in the world.

Greenland in this world has already fallen, so the situation does indeed look grim.

Some places with no shortage of steel have already started unrestricted full-armor combat tournaments in the country, which means they have long discovered one of the core weaknesses of these zombie hordes—their flesh and blood bodies.

In Africa, everything remains the same. For the locals, the zombie virus is not as deadly as scarring or other rampant deadly germs.

The French hot gaze once again descended from the sky, and Joey swept away all the zombies from Brittany to Switzerland.

This land is home to mutated zombies that are far more dangerous than those in other regions. Unlike ordinary zombies, which are weaker than ordinary humans, these zombies are stronger and smarter. Given time, they may be able to truly threaten all of humanity on this planet.

With his steel body, Joey made no mistake about the reinforced concrete structures and easily entered a biological research facility.

After shutting off his sense of smell, examining the blood and rotting debris scattered throughout the research center, and quickly skimming through the blood-stained documents, Joey simply sighed.

This must be the source of the zombie virus outbreak.

Humans are indeed a magical race with an amazing capacity for courting death.

The original origin of the virus is unknown, but the result was that some people in this place who had no fear of science recklessly played with Pandora's box in the laboratory, which ultimately led to this global tragedy.

After repeatedly comparing the experimental data and making careful observations himself, Joey had gained a sufficient understanding of the mechanism of this virus.

Firstly, this virus is highly contagious, with significant infectivity through air, water, and contact, which is one of the reasons why the virus ultimately leaked from the laboratory.

The zombie virus then spread exponentially throughout the world.

Even from the very first second Joey and Mark arrived in this world, the virus permeating the atmosphere tried to infect them.

However, the immune systems of these two alien beings were so powerful that the virus was immediately devoured as soon as it entered their bodies.

Secondly, this virus is an extremely cunning virus. While it is highly contagious, it does not cause any symptoms after infecting a host.

Unlike the general biological definition of "virus", this type of virus does not require a living host to replicate, and its symptoms only begin to appear after the host dies.

With everyone in the world currently infected, anyone whose brain tissue remains intact after death will become a walking corpse craving human flesh and blood, bringing more deaths.

Thirdly, these people who turned into zombies were indeed truly dead, but under the influence of the virus in their cerebellum, they manipulated their remaining physical bodies to attack the living.

This third point is particularly important and will save Joey a lot of trouble.

In summary, this virus is so perfect that it seems like it could not possibly exist in reality.

Let alone the limited scientific research capabilities of humanity on Earth, even Joey in his past life couldn't have created such a perfect virus strain when playing a virtual game that featured viruses.

There must be some deep conspiracy and secret behind this.

For humanity, surviving this zombie crisis and rebuilding civilization is probably not their ultimate challenge.

But for Joey, it all came down to a thunderous roar as the Kryptonians soared into the sky.

Standing outside the atmosphere, receiving sunlight, Joey began to target each and every individual lost household around the world.

What he's about to do is something that every superman could easily do but never dares to do.

It is also one of the reasons why people like Lex Luthor and Bruce Wayne in the ordinary universe naturally fear and doubt Superman.

With a single glance or a single thought, Superman can sentence any individual in the world to death at will and without restraint.

Even all individuals.

After watching Joey leave, Mark quickly calmed down after his initial nausea and discomfort.

He was a seasoned and invincible young hero who had seen the world; the wounds on the zombies present were probably not as severe as any of his injuries over the past month.

That's what he said, but Mark still felt his heart tremble when he saw all the zombies in the area surrounding him.

He knew that these zombies were indeed no threat to him, just as Joey had said, but humans have an innate aversion and fear towards the corpses of their own kind, let alone a large number of moving corpses.

Mark floated higher and higher in the air, drifting further and further away from the horde of rotting zombies, all the while loudly encouraging himself:

"Calm down, calm down, I am—"

"Shh! Glenn? Is that you? Keep your voice down!"

A man's whispered shout came from below the buildings.

Unbeknownst to him, Mark had already drifted away from his original spot and was now hovering in front of a building window. His mutterings attracted the attention of a survivor hiding on the floor.

Rick Grimes, dressed as a sheriff, raised the brim of his hat and looked toward the direction from which the sound came.

They ventured from the city's outskirts into the hordes of corpses-infested Atlanta in search of lost weapons and supplies, but an unexpected incident occurred.

A gang hiding in the city ambushed them, and after the conflict, Glenn Lee, the pizza deliveryman who had saved their life, was kidnapped.

Hearing a familiar voice outside the window, Rick thought Glenn had returned.

But when he peered out, what he saw left him completely bewildered:

Am I hallucinating?

Rick couldn't help but ask himself—as a dutiful and upright sheriff, he didn't have a drug habit.

Could it be that this apocalyptic catastrophe, which has only just begun, has finally driven him insane?

Why did he see a fictional comic book character flying in the sky?

Why did he see one?
