"And that makes the last one," Mathew commented. He then took a step back to take a better look at the whole scene.
There was something that bothered him to no end. An element of the picture that didn't fit the rest.
'I see,' Mathew thought when he stepped back far enough to grasp the whole picture at once.
The young man's face soured as his cautiousness returned to his eyes.
'There are more corpses than there were zombies in that group,' he thought, warily looking around in search of another potential source of zombies.
"Are you okay?" Nadia asked from the middle of the former battlefield when she took a break from harvesting the cores.
Mathew didn't bother to reply. He directed his eyes to the nearby houses instead, only to see a group of a few more zombies slowly breaking through all sorts of natural obstacles on their way.
"Look at the houses!" Mathew shouted.
