The base was nearly swallowed whole, its walls crawling with zombies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They attacked with frenzied desperation, clawing and smashing as if driven by a singular, burning purpose... to erase every trace of humanity within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Ivy faltered for a brief moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This isn’t right,’ she thought grimly. In her previous life, zombies had never behaved like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were violent, yes, but never so unrestrained, so relentless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Is it because of my base?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought made her chest tighten. With so many humans gathered under her protection, food for the zombies had dwindled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Did I push them into this desperation?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She shook the thought away and raised her voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Engage them. Now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soldiers surged forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the longer they fought, the more unsettling the realization became.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The zombies were not retreating. Not even slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though they their death would near them if they didn’t\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy frowned deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her power was passively active at all times. Zombies should have avoided her instinctively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So why are they still coming?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unease crawled up her spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Have they developed resistance?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The idea made no sense. Even after ten years in her previous life, zombies had never been able to approach her unless she triggered her condition by eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’And I haven’t eaten anything,’ she realized sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the answer struck her like lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Someone is controlling them,\" Ivy said coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment those words left her lips, the expressions of the surrounding commanders changed drastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all knew what she was implying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Zombie King...\" Silas whispered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy had already warned them about the future evolution of zombies and the eventual emergence of a Zombie King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one had appeared already, then this wasn’t just bad news... it was catastrophic.

I’m returning to the base.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for a reply, she turned back. As she feared, several zombies had already begun wandering near her territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a steady breath, Ivy issued orders the moment she arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>2\"All backup units, prepare for combat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the military base, her own settlement was eerily calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, it seemed that an instinctive fear restrained the zombies from approaching too closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even under the Zombie King’s influence, most of them hesitated, circling but refusing to advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only a handful crept closer, easily dealt with by the defenders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back at the military base, Stephen, Dante, and Silas fought fiercely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With reinforcements from SiIvy Base, the zombies surrounding the military were rapidly eliminated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soldiers who had been teetering on the edge of despair felt hope surge back into their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they saw Ivy personally leading troops into battle, many nearly broke down in tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of SiIvy Base’s intervention, the evacuation was halted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Citizens were reassured, guided to safety, and gradually calmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chaos still lingered, but something else spread faster... gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment people realized that SiIvy Base had come to their aid, goodwill blossomed across the military base.\u003C\u002Fp>",1018,"2026-06-05T15:12:36.808Z",1,"novelbin.me","5a98bc4e3f526dd00cee2b1846963fcc5b567f5e675e94927e6f0b4c5f420f41","zombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-chapter-459","zombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-chapter-457",706,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-cover.jpg"]
