The high-level zombie Black Ton has a name that sounds very close to human naming habits. Just because his figure and weight are far above average, even among the living corpses, he still seems to stand out from the crowd. Their "eldest sister" saw that he had evolved to be dark and strong, so she gave him such a name.
But now most people no longer call him by this rather vivid name, but instead call him...
"Blaketon, I'm back... Yes, he is one of the people that the eldest sister asked me to bring back. I arrived a little late, and he is the only one who survived among that group of humans." Looking at The extraordinarily tall figure standing at the intersection, Bai Ye said this, and his tone seemed to be in a good mood.
Yes, most of the zombie tribe in London now directly calls him "Blackton". Because the owner seemed to find it interesting after hearing his new name, so he called him "Blackton". As a result, this name quickly became popular among the zombie clan who infinitely respected their master, and... it was easier to pronounce even when pronounced, wasn't it
It is said that Blackton himself was always proud of being renamed by his owner. Gradually, the name was completely settled.
It's a pity that Blackton has had fewer opportunities to be called by his name recently, because his master assigned him to the eastern suburbs of London and was responsible for managing and guarding this area on the easternmost side of London. Because of this Located to the east of the City of Icicles, it is completely isolated from the west side, which is still in chaos due to the rampage of many demons. It has been classified as a settlement area for low-level "weak" tribesmen from the beginning.
Yes, this place is of course very important, because this is the "cradle" of the zombie clan. It is a place where low-level zombies are intensively "raised", and potential clan members are selected and tried to evolve. To exaggerate a bit, it would not be an exaggeration to say that this is the future of the zombie clan.
But obviously, because he paid so much attention to safety, Blackton felt extremely bored every day he spent here. And more importantly, almost no one comes here.

Oh, right! The "people" mentioned here, of course, refer to the high-level evolvers among the living corpses - facing a large group of low-level tribesmen who don't even have basic intelligence, many times Blackton doesn't even have anyone to talk to. Naturally, Bored to the point of panic.
Blackton, like most of the current high-level companions, has grown up through continuous battles. Because a strong member of the clan is needed to protect this "cradle", sending him here is of course the right decision, but for Blackton, being in a daze all day is really a waste of time.
I was finally given wisdom thanks to my master, but now it seems that I have no use for it.
"Is there only one left? Well, it's a pity... But it's better to have just one than all of them dead."
Blackton, who was as tall as a black tower, hummed with his deep, hoarse and harsh voice, like metal friction. At the end, he took two steps and walked to John behind Bai Ye. He bent down and stretched out his hand as if to Pat him on the shoulder to express comfort.
This startled John, who was already stunned and secretly on guard. He subconsciously took a step back and quickly avoided Blackton's giant palm.
"oh."
Blackton was also startled when he saw this, and then slowly took back his palm. Judging from his expression, he seemed a little disappointed.
To be honest, although most of the living zombies who were originally born from human corpses have human shapes, their appearance is basically different. Facing this giant-like "monster", it was actually difficult for John to see any emotion from his extremely shocking face.
But at this moment, he also noticed something from the other party's movements.
"Uh... um... I'm sorry," John's mood was a little subtle, and he looked for a reason to explain as if he was a little guilty, "I... um, I'm a bit unfamiliar with it, you can just let me get familiar with it again."
"Ah, nothing! Mr. Human, it's nothing... I just thought that humans basically like to make friends like Mr. Weasley, Miss Lovegood, and Mr. Longbottom! Well, they all interact with us normally. Gradually I got used to talking and talking... Yes, maybe it's actually normal to be like you, sir. When I saw a human being for the 'first time', I was even more unsure than you are!"
It can be seen from these words that Blackton's level of evolution is actually very high. Of course, John, who still knew nothing about high-level zombies at this time, could not detect such details at all - he was still not sure whether the "big black man" in front of him was the information. What about the living corpses mentioned frequently in the novel!
All right! At least one thing he knew from the beginning - if there was a fight, he would definitely not be able to even leave a whole body in the opponent's hands.
"Oh, thank you... thank you for your understanding." John forced a smile. Although, being able to laugh under such circumstances, his psychological quality is considered quite good among most people.
After the two of them were just "exchanging pleasantries", Bai Ye, who was standing aside, waved gently to John again and said to the big man at the same time:
"Eldest sister has been waiting for me for a few days. I should take him to the city as soon as possible. Blackton, you can find time to chat later!"
"Oh, of course - she must have known you were back, and we can't keep her waiting any longer."
Blackton said this, and then took a step to the side, making way for Bai Ye and John to move forward. But he couldn't help but curse in his heart, where would he have the chance to chat with this human being in the future? The master assigned him such an important task, and now he can't leave even half a step.
Yes, he just complained a few words secretly in his heart. This was a task assigned by the master, and he did not dare to have any objections.
Bai Ye Ming Jian had no way of knowing the little grievances Blackton felt. Seeing that the other party had moved out of the way, she immediately raised her legs and walked forward. Probably because she just mentioned that the eldest sister was probably waiting, her pace even vaguely accelerated a bit.
Seeing the girl resume her pace, John hurriedly followed her, but when passing by Blackton, he smiled slightly and nodded politely.
Of course, the smile on his face was still forced out, but after the simple exchange just now, his tense nerves had obviously gradually relaxed, and he even had enough energy to consider the idea of becoming friendly with "people". reason.
Today's London city is definitely not a good place. He must be careful when he steps into it.
