Chapter 163: Unique Circumstances (1/2)

As he imagined many things, he noticed that Maximo had already finished his almond nuts with nothing but specks of dust left on the ground.

He was confused by how fast the carabao had eaten the almond nuts.

That latest portion was equivalent or even more than the last one, how did he finish it with only half the time expended?

What he was more confused about is that Maximo still hasn't triggered his evolution.

'Is this carabao a scam?' He couldn't help but think about it.

Not only it didn't evolve after eating all the almond nuts he had given, but it was also even staring at him like it hasn't been fed for a week.

'Fuck!' He gritted his teeth and took a bunch of almond nuts inside his Storage Space.

'That will be enough for your evolution right?' He thought hesitatingly.

He went quite a 'length' just to fetch those almond nuts after all. The batch he stored inside the Storage Space should be able to last more than three meals. However, Maximo almost already consumed half of them.

'You better evolve after that. You don't expect me to become a farmer and collect your foods all day long right?' Nile thought ridiculously.

He went towards a corner and prayed for the various Gods, small or huge, little or big.

'Please let there be an evolution this time!' He silently muttered while closing his eyes.

After muttering for almost a few minutes, the longest he has prayed so far, he finally stood up and went towards the eating Maximo.

Maximo alertly looked at his master and hid the almond nuts under his belly.

However, a moment later, he heaves a sigh of relief as his master only patted his head before going out of the room. He felt satisfied with the pat and continued to eat the almond nuts happily after his master went past him and went outside the building.

…

Meanwhile, Burnok was still observing his surroundings ever since earlier.

Beads of sweat started to form on his forehead as he recalled the consequences of going out alone at night.

The reason for his nervous and alert self was not the Beheader that he was searching for.

Instead, it was the hybrids.

However, a moment later, he heaves a sigh of relief before touching the orange piece of clothing that was wrapped on his neck.

He recalled that it's alright for him to go out alone during the night with his unique circumstances.

Aside from being infested with zombies, the town was also littered with flesh-eating lunatics that also came from the different villages under the town of Daan.

During the day, one would only need to worry about zombies.

It was also only during the day that humans could hunt for zombies and do various things.

However, when night time comes, they better return to their respective bases situated outside the town.

Because at night, it was the hybrid's turn to hunt both humans and zombies.

If a lost human was found along the street inside the town, one could only pray for the human to last two hours.

That is why survivors needed to join the two factions from the east and west of the town. You don't join for the honor but for a place to stay in during the night.
