Chapter 635: Chapter 634: Encounter with a level 4 zombie 4

Luciel could only shrug as he also doesn’t know the answer to Nathan’s question, and he also wanted to know the answer to that question.

If zombies are already dead, then why are they even getting stronger both in body and ability?

And then the zombies even started getting better as they started being able to control others.

Even though it’s still based on instinct to eat them, they started being able to plan to be able to eat them more efficiently.

That’s why he doesn’t really fully believe that it’s a virus; unfortunately, the reason behind such issues wasn’t answered even at the end of the novel that he had read before, and only ended with Treyton defeating the strongest zombies and establishing the strongest base.

Camille also sighed and said, "Yeah. Then we need to train more, and now we need to continue training so that we don’t have too much opening when dealing with zombies.

Fighting them had been easier even though their bodies had evolved and become tougher, and even though they suddenly had abilities—at least they were very predictable before, so it’s still easier to kill them, but now it would no longer be the case."

"And there’s a lot of zombies, so we have to keep attacking with all of them in mind, so it would even be harder," Nate said.

"Then, aside from dealing with zombies, there are also mutant animals that are also getting stronger. Then, we’ll also be dealing with even stronger zombie mutant animals when they become infected. And there are even conscious plants that are also hostile to humans," Jacob said.

"Come on, don’t think too much; just take one step at a time. Thinking too much would just make you guys even more pessimistic.

If you guys have time to think of such things, then better spend it on training and stop frightening the kids," Luciel said, and then pointed at the younger kids who had been listening to what they were saying.

The older kids were okay, because they certainly had already realized the effects of such zombies appearing and what might happen to them, which was why some of them immediately paled after listening that the zombie he had dealt with was controlling other zombies.

However, most of the younger kids probably only have some ideas about it but hadn’t fully understood, but because of their conversation, the younger kids had more understanding of it already.

The younger kids were listening intently to what they were saying, and all of them were silent and just listening to all of it.

What they were saying was indeed the case, as everything around them would just keep getting stronger. However, those younger kids had already realized that their environment is very dangerous, which is why even Sophie, the youngest and most playful of them, would still keep training once their training time comes, even though she always wanted to change what she wanted from time to time.

They’re already training very hard, and sometimes knowing more would just add more pressure to them. Even if no one would say anything to them, their subconscious would still note the danger, and they’ll likely push themselves too hard.

For kids, training is indeed good as they could have more potential, but if they’re pushed too hard, then even if they had talent, it would just break and put limits on them if they used too much when they couldn’t actually bear it anymore.

In the world that they were in, a lot of young children had more potential than most adults, as they were already involved in such a bad environment since young, so since they could still offer a bit more protection while they’re still alive, it’s better to let them have a better environment for growth.

Of course, if they’re not in a good environment, Luciel wouldn’t say anything, as the first thing they’d have to worry about is their survival.

He’s still a bit fond of the kids on the team, so he still wanted them to grow even stronger in the future without putting a limit to their potential very early.

Nathan and the others were really sighing too much; even if he knew the reason, it’s still a bit irritating.

The world that they were in wouldn’t change even with their worries written on their faces, so it’s better to cast aside such worries as soon as possible, as it would just hinder them.

They still have to keep traveling south with just them; if they couldn’t fight properly because of being too worried about such things, then his work would probably increase, which certainly isn’t good for him.

So he even added, "If you guys have such free time, why don’t you guys act as my sparring partners for a bit until we reach the south base?

You guys certainly won’t have time to have such worries, and it would even improve your evading skills. Hmm, I think that would really be good.

You guys are worried about your training, right? I’m even willing to have you guys as my sparring partners while doing my exercise quota for the day. What do you guys say?"

He’d always allocate 30 minutes or 1 hour if he wasn’t in the mood to do anything else for his exercise after his strength training before, even though that 30 minutes and 1 hour wouldn’t really have any effects anymore. He’s just doing it so that his body won’t regress.

"No need to say it nicely; we’ll certainly only be your punching bags," Nathan said.

"True, but at least even as my punching bags, you guys would still be able to improve faster. I’m not sure if your fighting abilities would get stronger, but your evading skills would certainly be better. Of course, you guys just have to suffer more beatings from me than from your regular training," Luciel said with a chuckle.

The others also knew that it’s indeed true, so they all agreed immediately.
