Chapter 232 A Plan
[Chapter 231 Comments.]
[Keltic_Spirit: Yeahhhhh, you're not killing the worm before it becomes a nuisance for at least 2 chapters. Also, it's getting lonely just being me here. At least I have you.]
…
Theo looked at the worm, who seemed to be scared of him. As expected, it was smart enough to actually assess its enemies.
It was quite amazing to see a zombie, a living dead, manage to gain that much wisdom. Then again, all the beings in this world had intelligence in one way or another.
So, the fact that it could manage to reach this level of wisdom in a short period of time meant either of those two things.
"I've heard that the zombie outbreak started not long ago. After all, Maya had to kill her family with her own hands when they lived peacefully. It might prove the significant progress that the zombies, or whatever created them, made in a short period of time. If it were like the zombie ant that was controlled by a fungus, it would mean the fungus would evolve even further. But if it was a virus, it would become troublesome because it might turn into something that could bypass the vaccine.
"Either way, this worm has enough intelligence. It's something I can work with." Theo smirked while looking at the comment. "It's not that I didn't kill the worm, I simply let it live a bit longer."
Theo noticed the sudden change in the worm's movement. It turned around as though it were trying to run away from Theo.
"Nope." Theo waved his hand, forming multiple barriers and connecting them to each other on the ground, stopping the worm from returning underground.@@novelbin@@
After that, Theo gathered his space element into his fist before punching downward.
Space Expansion.
*Roar!* The worm was wailing in pain as its body was being crushed by the expansion. It suddenly lifted up its body before slamming it to the ground, creating a shock wave that neutralized the space expansion.
"Oh!" Theo knew that the space expansion couldn't be dealt with that easily by a mere shock wave. It seemed that the worm could actually manipulate the essence around it. The size wasn't the only problem that would make this zombie hard to defeat.
Then again, his original purpose in using the Space Expansion was to force the worm to move.
The moment it managed to neutralize the expansion, the worm hurriedly crawled for its life.
Theo summoned another series of barriers, blocking all three directions except for the direction toward the cannibals.
Yes, Theo actually directed this worm to the cannibals. If the worm were to run underground, it would be hiding from him and never be seen again. If it reached his students, they would be in danger and he might end up interrupting the lesson.
Hence, there was one thing to do. He had expected that the author would pull something that allowed him to use the Illusory Dream, so he was waiting for them. He was prepared to either kill the worm or actually use it.
And it seemed that for cannibals, allowing the worm to kill them was much better than dirtying his own hand.
*Roar!* The worm ran away, thinking that it should be able to outrun Theo sooner or later. The barrier looked like it was gradually shrinking in length.
Since it could sense Theo's presence getting outpaced by its speed, the worm became much more desperate than ever.
It didn't realize that Theo actually had an easy time keeping up with the pace. In fact, while chasing after this worm, Theo couldn't help but look at his students' directions, wondering if they had done well. Even though he had read the comment about them, he was still curious about their change.
After seeing the destruction or listening to the desperate roars of the zombies, his heart was at ease.
Hence, he focused back on the worm.
The cannibal group noticed the incoming Theo and the worm.
A few cannibals pointed their fingers at them, alerting the others. However, they didn't actually break off their formation even though they were panicking.
He didn't know how strong the cannibals were, but he knew that a Tier 6 zombie was close to a high rank zombie, which usually required a military operation to subjugate.
This group of cannibals shouldn't have the strength to resist them. Theo also didn't feel any dangers coming from them, so even if some of them could fight, they shouldn't possess any dangers.
Still, he maintained his vigilance, wondering what the cannibals would do upon seeing such a threat. Discover stories with My Virtual Library Empire
It seemed that even cannibals were afraid of the worm. Some of the vehicles actually turned away to escape.
Unfortunately for them, Theo sped up and formed a giant dome with his barrier, forcing them inside.
Because of it, the barrier that kept the worm from going in one direction disappeared.
*Roar!* Now that nothing stopped the worm anymore, the latter turned into a beast, ready to rampage in the area.
"Yep!" Theo smirked.
The reason why he chose to kill these cannibals was not because he pitied their targets, it was because they were actually driving toward Oliver and Haruka, so it wouldn't be wrong for him to stop them.
In addition, he could actually see two cages made of metal, imprisoning four people, three men and one woman. Two of the men had one of their limbs chopped, their blood was still flowing down the cage. The woman had all her limbs chained to the edge as though she were about to be butchered the moment someone entered the cage, which confirmed their identities as cannibals.
On the other hand, the captured people saw this commotion. The woman surprisingly remained silent as though she had accepted her fate. On the other hand, the men actually shouted at Theo, "Help!"
"Huu!"
"Ahhuu!"
The cannibals were pointing at the worm in panic. They didn't seem to realize that the man who was capable of making this worm so scared would be more terrifying than the worm.
Amidst their panic, Theo landed on the ground and pointed his palm toward them. His eyes gradually shone as he muttered, "Toon Demon's Third Authority, Illusory Dream."
