Chapter 304 A Raid!
The Zombie Hunter's base was unique compared to all the other bases, and this was because they didn't reside in a single building, and instead had made their base within a gated community area.
A housing area that was located away from the centre of the city. It was on a road where there was a large black gate that one would have to go through and then beyond that there were a number of large houses.
In this housing community, there were roughly thirty or so houses that each had ten bedrooms along with multiple shower facilities and more. The houses themselves could accommodate a lot more people than that, that was just how many rooms a single house had.
There was plenty of open space and a lot of distance between the houses as well, and in between them there were now a number of tents set up, sleeping bags on the floor along with other things.
It almost looked like they had turned the housing area into a small little village. There was even trade going on within the community of Zombie Hunters. Trading baked goods, trading equipment, and so on.
Then there was the largest house in the community, it was a mansion that spread out wide and looked to be a floor larger than anywhere else. It was white in colour with hints of brown wood decor on the outside.
The main feature was the large balcony that was placed on the top floor. It was the reason why Buke had claimed this place for himself, as he was able to stand outside and overlook everything that was going on.
"A functioning society." Buke said with a smile. "One that works because people aren't afraid of getting infected and losing their minds."
"We had a functioning society as well before you killed them all!" A voice shouted out from behind.
Turning around, Buke walked back into the master bedroom of the house. There were around ten people inside, almost all of them members of the Zombie Hunters. Some were sitting on chairs off to the side, relaxing on the sofa, or just lying on the bed.
In the room as well though, was Sarah, tied up with her hands behind her back, sitting on a wooden chair.
"Killed them?" Buke replied. "I think you're very wrong about that. How can we kill something that is already dead, and do you know what we found when we raided your facility?
"Human flesh hoarded and stored in containers, along with our brains. Do you really think people can willingly live side by side with something they know requires them to be eaten to survive."
It was the natural fear, she understood why they were scared, why anyone would be scared.
"Anyway, you see there is a reason why we kept you alive, you see, we looked in the brains of a few of the colleagues you had close to you." Buke said, pushing the side of his head with his index finger. "And it turns out, you this entire time had a cure… a cure to turn the zombies back."
Sarah gritted her teeth when she heard this.
"It's not what you think it is…" Sarah said.
"Oh, don't worry." Buke clicked his fingers, signalling one of the other hunters to come forward. One of the men with long black hair covering his eyes and reaching the top of his nose, walked forward. He then placed both of his hands around the side of her head.
"I'm somewhat counting on it not being what it sounds like, whether it kills all the zombies rather than cures them, well, that's not really my problem, is it?" Buke said.
The man placed both hands on the side of Sarah's head and started to focus. Memories were shifting inside his mind, multiple types of information were being gathered. The man's head was twitching and sweat was running down the side of his head. He then could feel something else, dripping from his nose and landing on top of Sarah's head.
"Ah!" the man let go, wiping his nose only to realise he had a nosebleed. "There's too much information. I'm getting all sorts of things, and I can't actually find out about the cure. It will take some time for me to search through everything."
"Well, continue at it." Buke said. "Get some rest and we'll keep searching until we find out our answer."
"You don't realise what you are doing." Sarah said. "You ruined everything! I was talking to the demons, that's who we need to worry about. We can't get rid of the zombies until we learn to strike a deal with the demons.
"If you get rid of the zombies now, with no deal having been struck, then it will be the end for us all!" Sarah was pleading, her voice was cracking as it sounded like she was almost at the point of tears.
Truthfully things had already been ruined. With all of the Reborn zombies gone now, what could she do? What bargaining tool did she even have against the demons, apart from the cure, but they needed something more than just the demon's words.
Still, the cure was her last trump card, and these fools were just going to hasten the whole world's demise.
Loud banging from outside, beyond the balcony, could be heard. Several people started to hit pots and pans together. Quickly rushing outside, he could see there was a commotion going on.
"Alert, alert, we're being attacked by zombies!" The men were shouting from below.
"Zombies, coming to attack us… can the guards not deal with a simple matter?" Buke thought.
That was until he saw an object flying in the air, it was black and small but getting larger by the second.
It then crashed right into the middle of the grounds, hitting several of the Zombie Hunters as it slid across the floor. Looking at the object, it was the front gate.
