Melody's sudden change was still questionable—was it genuine growth, or just clever self-preservation? Maybe she was simply biding her time, trying to grow stronger before starting her schemes all over again.
But Kisha didn't care.
She averted her gaze from Melody, who was now actively helping Ethan. Earlier, she had felt Melody's fearful eyes on her, and when she turned to look, she saw the girl staring at her—flustered and afraid.
Kisha scoffed. So now Melody finally realized the truth—that she'd been nothing more than an ant trying to challenge an elephant. It was laughable. And now that she had witnessed Kisha's real power, she was probably starting to reflect on all those foolish provocations in the past.
As Kisha turned her attention back to the battlefield, she took a moment to assess their progress. Glancing around, she realized they had already covered a significant distance from their starting point—nearly a quarter of the way to their destination. But what truly caught her eye was the data flashing beside her screen:
[Zombies Eliminated]
[Normal Zombies: 100 / 1,570
Normal Evolved Zombies: 595 / 876
Evolved Zombies: 123 / 356
High-Level Evolved Zombies: 16 / 189
Potential Zombie King: 0 / 1]
Seeing the updated kill count, Kisha glanced up at the towering iron doors ahead and let out a low chuckle.
Perhaps the potential Zombie King thought it was being clever—hiding its strongest pawns inside the building, ready to trap them in a coordinated ambush. It probably believed surrounding itself with a horde would guarantee victory.
