Chapter 1917: Chapter 1917

Ren Xingtang’s words once again sent a chill through everyone’s hearts, but before anyone could speak, Ryle took the lead and said, "Forgive me, but I don’t understand what you mean..."

"Don’t play dumb with me! Everyone!" Ren Xingtang angrily shouted at Ryle, then looked at the others with a serious expression as he pointed at Ryle and continued, "I’ll be direct, the person standing before you is not human at all! He is a high-level evolved zombie, disguised as a human sitting here among us!"

"Moreover, many of you have already been replaced by zombies. Although I’m not sure who, but..." As he spoke, Ren Xingtang rummaged through his pocket, while his right hand remained tightly gripping the Feiyun Cannon, fearing someone might suddenly snatch it away.

After a moment, he pulled out several photos from his pocket and slammed them onto the conference table.

After seeing this, a few others exchanged glances, and eventually, some gathered the courage to step forward and pick up the photos. As soon as they glanced at a few, their expressions changed abruptly!

The content of the photos mostly consisted of surveillance footage, with a small portion secretly shot. The intended message was clear, and the protagonist was none other than Ryle, detailing the entire process of how a young man named "Lou Dashan" was killed and then turned into a zombie!

The original "Lou Dashan" had long been dead; standing here was merely the zombie who took over his identity!

As more people finished looking at the photos, the atmosphere in the conference room quieted down, many people’s mental defenses were on the brink of collapse!

Indeed, Ren Xingtang exposed "Lou Dashan" as a zombie, but what could they do? "Lou Dashan" could fluently use human language to converse with them, which alone indicated that this guy was not just a Level 6 zombie, but a solid Level 8 zombie!

Faced with such an entity, their generally Level 6 or 7 abilities meant none could escape the conference room alive!

Thus, after finishing viewing, everyone remained dumbfounded, not daring to move an inch for fear their actions might provoke "Lou Dashan", this Level 8 zombie!

To everyone’s surprise, Ryle, whose identity was uncovered, did not show a trace of panic on his face. His tone was as calm and mocking as before. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⚑𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚⚑𝙣𝙚𝙩

"Hehehe haha! Hey, what do your photos prove? They only show that I’m a zombie, correct? Surely you don’t think all members of the anti-human organization are humans?"

"Ah?" Ryle’s words once again left some people dumbstruck, quickly making them realize—indeed, if there are Level 8 evolved zombies among the anti-human organization members, their ability to control the zombie tide suddenly makes more sense!

Watching people waver because of Ryle’s statement, Ren Xingtang felt a wave of frustration that they could still hope for goodwill from the anti-human organization at this point. Were they really that kind-hearted?

However, he didn’t lose his composure and continued to confront Ryle: "I do not deny there are Level 8 zombies within the anti-human organization, but to my knowledge, they have their headquarters and various bases locally, and their ability to relocate freely provides them flexibility unattainable by survivor bases, making them presumably safer than us living inside a base. I don’t believe their leader is foolish enough to forgo their advantages and become a cumbersome existence like a survivor base or Sanctuary City!"

"Moreover, to survive and fend off outsiders, it’s laughable!"

"As for your reasoning, can you truly ask yourself if you believe in it?"

"Hehehe..." Ryle chuckled and shook his head replying: "You humans are always so self-righteous, using conventional logic to calculate the thoughts of your peers..." However, his words were abruptly interrupted by Ren Xingtang: "Enough with the diversions, don’t think I don’t know what you’re trying to do!"

"And what am I trying to do?" Ryle asked curiously. Opposite him, Ren Xingtang took a deep breath and replied directly: "You want to corral Mengjiao base! That’s precisely why human lives have become more valuable; you’re taking great efforts to prevent more deaths!"

"Oh wow, what a brilliant answer." As he spoke, Ryle applauded, his smiling face confounding those around him—what exactly did he mean?

Ren Xingtang fell silent for a moment, expecting the other party to fly into a rage and attack after having his secret exposed, but this reaction left him feeling like he’d punched a pillow, utterly powerless.

That inexplicable frustration was so unpleasant, but he didn’t dwell on it for long, turning to the others and continuing: "Do you know why our intelligence department never detected the black insect zombie tide 60 kilometers away beforehand? It’s because the entire department had already been infiltrated and completely turned into zombies! Hence, the information we received is only what they wanted us to know!"

"Actually, there’s no zombie tide 60 kilometers away; it’s all just his lies! Lies fabricated merely to corral Mengjiao base!"

Throughout the conference room, besides Ren Xingtang’s voice, there was no other sound. People remained silent, seemingly unfazed but in fact many began secretly sizing up their neighbors, with some even quietly distancing themselves from the crowd.

Nothing is more terrifying than someone beside you already having turned into a zombie!

After speaking, Ren Xingtang glanced at Ryle, hoping to see his reaction, but disappointingly, Ryle’s expression was as usual. As his words fell, Ryle asked, "Some things shouldn’t be spoken carelessly, every person here is normal. Whether I have done anything, I know it very well."

"Humhum!" Ryle’s words brought Ren Xingtang a wry smile, as they truly seemed like blatant lies, spoken nonchalantly. Were all high-level zombies that could masquerade as humans this shameless?

"I think you won’t cry until you see the coffin!"

"Oh? I really am that way... But, how will you prove that someone here has already been replaced by my kind?"

The perpetually smiling Ryle made Ren Xingtang grit his teeth. Still, he forced himself to calm down, fixed his gaze on his opponent, and declared word by word: "I know you’re testing me, but you may be disappointed—I am not as deplorable as you think. Since you want proof, I’ll show you proof!"

"Little Wu!" Saying that, Ren Xingtang called over a soldier, then extended an arm, making it clear he wanted to prove the replaced identity by demonstrating the different self-healing speed between new humans and zombies!

Simultaneously showcasing his thorough understanding of Ryle and his undisclosed tactics!
