All Chapters of Reborn With Zombie Control Chips : Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

As soon as I reached Legion Tech, I went straight to the research division. I took the elevator to the restricted research floor and used my access card at the security door. After entering the code, the steel cabinet opened and revealed several sealed containers. My fingers trembled slightly as I picked up the first container. “Got you.”Although my other colleagues were out of state, I knew they could return anytime. If I took everything with me, they might notice and immediately start searching for them.So, I emptied 1000 chips into my backpack. I’d come for the rest later if I was able to. “Where are you off to?” Jenny, another intern asked as I rushed out of the building.Back in my apartment, I divided the tiny chips into groups of 100. Leaving 200 in my apartment, I planted the rest in different places I had access to. One of them being the bunker in my grandfather’s old and abandoned warehouse.I wasn’t foolish enough to keep everything in one place. If someone discovered o

After they left, I went to have breakfast while monitoring the situation outside. I wanted to step out but needed to do it when the infected were scarce in the neighborhood.From what I remembered in my previous life, they wouldn’t stay in one place for long. The larger groups were already moving toward the city center, following the noise created by panicking survivors, emergency vehicles, and the endless stream of people trying to escape.That left my area unusually quiet, creating the perfect opportunity to test the chips.I stood inside my garage with one of the tiny neural-control chip between my fingers. It was so tiny that anyone who saw it would probably wonder why I was treating it like it was worth more than gold.In the apocalypse it was better than gold. If they worked, I could even create a zombie army to protect me and also I could send them to collect supplies and attack my enemies.After checking my weapon, I put several chips into the small pouch attached to my belt a

Standing in front of the security monitor, I stared at Victor and the people standing behind him. A red notification appeared in the corner of my eye.[WARNING: SYSTEM STABILITY 18%.][SYSTEM SHUTDOWN IMMINENT.]I put my head in my hands, feeling scared. “How do I stop this?”[100 SURVIVAL POINTS REQUIRED TO RESTORE BASIC SYSTEM STABILITY.]I stared at the number and shook my head. One hundred survival points were a lot. But if I didn't get them, I knew most system functions would shut down and that would put me in danger. The base defenses would weaken of even fail.Shit. If I didn’t get more points, even the zombie-control interface would pause or fail. No. I wasn’t losing that, not after finally proving that the chips worked. The chips alone wouldn’t be that helpful to me.Through the security monitor, I turned to victor and pressed the intercom. “What do you want?”Victor stepped closer to the gate and raised his hand. “Open this gate.”“Not gonna happen.”“We need supplies,” he

All was quiet in the next two days. Jolie and her grandmother were always together. Whenever I felt like having some company, I would join them.Eventually, I told Tom everything about the zombie chips. I was afraid that the company might be able to track them somehow. If they did, I wanted him to know what might happen. After I told him everything, Tom didn’t become as frightened as I was. He told me everything would be okay.It was at that point that I began to appreciate having a strong man around. If I had given this information to Jolie, I was pretty sure she would have hyperventilated and said things that would scare me even more. Tom made me feel somehow safe, as safe as one could feel in the apocalypse. Sleeping was slightly hard because I kept wondering if life would be easier without the chips. Maybe I could take them back of keep all of them out of the home.The people who made those chips could make better technology that could destroy my home. Just thinking about the sur
