A Rational Zombie

Chapter 92

But where is the garrison? The prey speaking on the other end of the box, its acting like all the other prey already know. It doesnt include any directions. Garrison is the only hint. It must be the name of a place. To get to a place that only prey know of, the simplest way is to follow prey. But even that itself is difficult. Following prey without alerting them, Id have to go by myself. Itll be dangerous. I wont do it. If all the prey are gathering at the garrison, I need all the others I can rally. If theres hundreds of prey, I need thousands of others. I dont know if its possible to find that many.

Will there be hundreds of prey? Im not sure. Finding the garrison, scouting the preys numbers, I have to do that first before blindly rushing in. Even if there are hundreds of prey, I dont necessarily need thousands of others if I use my intelligence. Didnt three prey cripple over seventy others while I was taking this building? Using trees and a hill, they barely exerted any strength. Why cant I copy them, produce the same results? Im just as smart, maybe smarter, than more prey. At first, I was lacking in experience, not intelligence. But Im experienced now. Even if I fail in attacking the garrison, I can take the motorcycle to flee.

It comes back to the original problem. Where is the garrison? I already have an idea. But I cant be sure. The motorcycles came from one direction, the left of the road. They went somewhere, did some things. Then, they wanted to go back to the left. If theres any prey that can turn others back into prey, wouldnt they be part of the group of prey that had motorcycles? If I travel in the direction that the motorcycles came from, keep my vision on the sky for smoke, wont I find the garrison? If not the garrison, Id find a camp of prey. Once I find the camp, if I injure the prey, have the others bite them but keep them alive, theyll have to leave, search for the cure that prevents them from turning into others. Once they do, Ill follow them. Its simple.

Theres a chance the prey at the garrison hasnt contacted them. But I think they have. The preys been repeating the same message, the voice coming from the box at set intervals. If the prey was only trying to talk to the people here, it wouldve stopped after realizing there was no response. Like the prey talking through the smaller boxes I had. Once they realized the prey I ate wasnt going to respond, they stopped talking. If Im not wrong, the prey at the garrison is trying to spread the word, talking to every prey with a box. If I am wrong, it doesnt matter. Following the road the motorcycles took will lead me to food. Either way, I know my next destination.

My injury healed. The meat is done smoking. Theres no reason left to stay. Ive already done some experiments on the motorcycle too. I was right, destroying the wheels is the best way to stop one. Luckily, the wheel isnt solid, filled with air. One arrow is enough to create a hole. Knives work too. But if Im close enough to stab the wheel with a knife, the motorcycle will run me over. Hitting it with an arrow while it moves is impossible too. Thats why, the simplest answer is the metal points. They have four points, arranged in a way that if dropped, one point is always sticking up. If the motorcycle runs over them, holes will appear in the wheels, breaking them.

Hopefully, I wont have to deal with motorcycles. Theyre too troublesome, having only one weakness. If I find some without prey controlling them, Ill stab their wheels, destroy them before prey can use them. Leading the others outside wasnt a problem. All I had to do was give them the box. Once they found out it couldnt be eaten, they stopped moving. Bringing the box with me may be troublesome. If I put it in a blanket, let the others carry it, if the preys voice comes through, the others will get distracted. But what if more useful information comes out of the box? If I dont bring it, I might miss out. Then, Ill carry it personally. I want the others to follow me anyway. Instead of banging my metal stick against my spear, the preys voice should work just as well.

Itll be troublesome to carry so much. Im carrying a bag at my waist filled with arrows. My knives are inside too. Theres a bag on my back filled with meat. Between my back and the bag, Im holding my weapons. Theres a metal stick, a spear, a bow. I usually carry my bow in my hands. But I have to push the motorcycle. I need both hands to be free. Others cant push the motorcycle for me. And if I control it instead, Ill use up gas. Gas is precious, not meant to be used for normal travel. I can only save the motorcycle for escaping.

But what if instead of pushing, I have the others pull? If I tie the motorcycle to the others, theyll drag it along as they walk. Its heavy. Itll slow them down. But if I tie it to multiple others, if they walk in unison, itll be easy to bring along. The bags that they carried, I can put on the motorcycle. That way, if I have to escape, Ill have the stuff they were bringing too. And without the key, prey cant drive my motorcycle away. The others dragging the motorcycle will be slowed down, unable to defend themselves or help attack prey. But that doesnt matter. The ones Ill be using are already missing arms or parts of their mouths. They cant kill prey in the first place. Its decided then.
