Chapter 191 - Ah, shit. (1/2)

I stared at the figures closely and I can't fathom what they are doing. I could obviously tell what they were doing but... why are they doing it? They're just... eating... some of them and... themselves. A couple zombies in their vicinity are getting feasted upon and the ones that are not close to anything are eating themselves. The only time they stop eating themselves is when another comes close to them or when they hear a noise.

Most of them have their arms chewed up with bones sticking out but a few still have remnants of their knuckles still intact. One of the figures has most of the flesh from its shoulder eaten up so its arm that is connected to it is just swaying lifelessly.

”That is f.u.c.k.i.n.g disgusting.” Oscar said.

Brian raised his axe up and swung it down on the one coming towards him. Marvin on the other hand stabbed the two that are still busy eating themselves with his spear. The bodies fell to the ground and they cleared a few more like it near the entrance of the Public Market.

Several of the bloody figures are now littering the space that we're in so I told them to stop.

”Stop luring them for now. Drag a few of them on the side of the road so our space to navigate into wouldn't be hindered by them.” I said from the earpiece.

”But there's more roaming inside. Besides, I could easily walk over them, they're not that much of a hindrance.” Brian said.

”Just follow him Bri.” Ashley said.

”Just trying to say my opinion Ash.” he replied.

”Sure, don't move them.” I said.

”Wait, really?” I saw Marvin starting to move one of them.

”Yeah, I think Brian wants me to write 'Died by tripping over a dead zombie.' on his grave. Wait, we don't have graves, we just burn everyone. I'll just remember you, don't worry.” I said.

”Can't you just tell me normally and not plan my funeral every single time?” he replied.

”Well, can't you just follow my orders then?” I said.

”F.u.c.k it.” he said.

I could hear a few chuckles from the earpiece but they decided to just move the bodies first before proceeding forward. I told them to place them on the street corner first and they moved back towards the truck to drag the ones near it first.

However, from inside the Public Market, I saw something that I thought was the same as them but wasn't.

It has the same features as the ones before but the difference is that its belly is bulging like a pregnant woman. Almost all of its flesh has been torn off but its stomach was the only thing left intact. It's like a person who suffered 3rd Degree burns but its stomach miraculously stayed the same. Kaley slowly raised her gun since the people below has their backs turned towards it but it did something that made my head itch. Marvin saw Kaley raising her gun and he also looked back with his pistol drawn and saw the figure we are currently looking at.

It didn't even look at us.

It just buried its hands that looks like bony claws to the nearest body in front of it and it started to drag it inside the Public Market. It's about to enter the entrance when it went out but Kaley immediately fired a shot when she saw it.

*psshew*

It fell to the ground but a couple more appeared and started to gorge on the one that Kaley shot. They just ripped its belly apart and made a feast of all its fluid and the small clumps of flesh that is stored in its stomach. They seem to have forgotten the one body their 'comrade' was dragging around and they just happily feasted on it instead.

The group near the truck were also staring at them but what's weird is those ones with the bulging stomachs does not seem to eat or even attack each other.

”Sky, permission to shoot.” Marvin said.

The rest also asked permission which was surprising but I said, ”Wait, can you aim on the one on the left?”
