เด็กในความลับ

A hundred years ago, the zombie virus broke out, and the end of the world began.

70% of the human population turned into zombies, and the human race neared its extinction.

As the apocalypse approached, humans also began awakening their genes.

The humans and zombies fought, but there were too many zombies. All humans could do was build base cities to protect humans.

…

“There won’t be any zombies in this hospital, right?”

Lucas York gulped. It had been ten days since he had traveled to this parallel universe.

In the past ten days, he had been sneaking around stealthily, and he had not been eaten by a zombie yet.

In these ten days, Lucas had found out more about the kind of world he had traveled to.

The end of the world!

He had only seen this in novels and movies.

When he first crossed over, he heard about the base city of Annan.

Now that he was not far from Annan Base City, he was trying to find a safe place to stay there. Otherwise, he would end up dead if he spent too much time outdoors.

It was apparent that the city that Lucas was currently in had been taken over by zombies.

He ducked into a hospital, hoping that there would be no zombies inside. Otherwise, it would be the end for him.

If there were merely one or two zombies, he’d still be able to take care of them on his own. However, if there were too many zombies, he would have no idea what would happen.

After all, he was not even an Awakened One.

After a human’s gene was awakened, it could be classified into five grades of genes, which from the lowest to highest were grades D, C, B, A, S.

The higher their gene level, the greater their future achievements.

The Awakened Ones were classified into 10 levels, with Level 10 Awakened Ones being evolutionary beings.

Lucas was careful with every step he took, terrified of being eaten by zombies. Even if he was lucky enough to not get eaten, one bite from a zombie would turn him into one.

He did not even dare to breathe too hard. As a traveler, he sure was having a hard time.

Other travelers possessed god-defying luck and would exist as protagonists in the future. However, he had ended up in an apocalyptic world. Moreover, he still had to be constantly cautious attracting the attention of zombies.

Lucas ducked into a hospital room. Looking around the filthy room, he let out a long sigh. This was more than he could ask for at a time like this.

Even though it had only been ten days since he had traveled to this world, no one knew what he had been through.

“Guru!”

At that moment, his stomach started grumbling.

He was parched and hungry, but he did not dare to venture outside. There was no telling how many zombies were out there.

“Awoo, awoo!”

Lucas heard a horrifying howl.

He jumped. In the past ten days, he had heard way too many types of sounds.

But this was not any other sound, it was the call of a zombie!

“Bang bang bang!”

Then, a loud banging sounded.

If a zombie were to break in, Lucas knew that there would be nowhere to retreat to in this small room. He would either die or become a zombie.

“What should I do?!”

Lucas’ expression turned pale. Was he destined to die?

Ding…

“The Super Fusion system is binding…

“10%...30%...60%...100%...

“Super Fusion System binding complete.”

Lucas was taken aback by the voice that suddenly sounded in his mind. He knew that this was a system.

As a traveler, he knew what a system was.

But before he had time to think about it any further, four male zombies had already broken into the room.

The moment these four zombies laid their eyes on Lucas, it was like were hungry ghosts that had been starving for ten days, and they charged wildly towards him.

“As long as the host subdues these four zombies, they can be fused.”

The system’s voice said once again in Lucas’ mind.
