There was only so far ahead that Zain could think as to what would happen or try to predict what would occur. He had come up with multiple solutions but the military was certainly something that was more unpredictable to him.
He had been held up in a cell in a military facility, the sounds of moans and groans could be heard from left, right, and above. When entering the place, he could see there were three floors and the cells were placed in a rectangle shape.
This allowed Zain to see the prisoners that were on the other side, and unsurprisingly some of them were zombies. It was hard to tell whether they were human originally and had been turned or were just human, but judging by the uniforms being military, he imagined it was those who had been bit going out on missions.
Sitting in the cell, Zain wasn't doing much movement and was just keeping an eye on the little bit of sunlight he got from the back of his cell. It was a small set of bars that allowed one to look outside, but not much had happened.
‘I've been in the cell for at least three days now. All they've done is come check up on me once in a while and try to hand me food.' Zain thought to himself, but he made it a point to never take the food, because it didn't do anything for him in the first place.
‘During this time my energy has lowered and my body funcinaitly is down to 77 percent. It's a good thing that my intelligence is keeping my body function from going down too fast. If something like this had happened when I first turned, things wouldn't be so pretty.'
The problem was, if the military didn't try to do something with Zain soon, then he would have to act. The longer he waited, the lower his body function would get, and it would affect his ability to fight his way out of the facility.
‘I thought something might have happened when they brought that meteorite in. Since the quest didn't complete, I might need to get closer to it. It's a higher level quest, there has to be a reason for it, and with all this fire power and the military around me, it would be safer to do it here than anywhere, maybe I can convince the general to let me see it?'
As Zain was thinking about the general, it didn't take long for the door to open. Some of the prisoners immediately stood up looking out of their cells and that included the zombies that held out their hands, trying their hardest to reach those walking past.
Zain was on the second floor, but just based on the footsteps alone, Zain could tell who it was, as the old white haired man came into view with four guards by his side.
‘The general at least seems to be cautious of me, most people would be confident just with two guards with guns, and according to them I'm completely unarmed.'
"From our research, the closer a bite is to the head, the quicker the person turns. Not only do you have a deep visible bite but it's right next to your head. By now, you should have turned into a mindless zombie, but you seem just fine."
Zain stood up and slowly approached the bars but didn't get too close as to worry the others.
"I didn't lie to you. I have already been bitten a long time ago. I think and act just like a human, the only downside is, I don't eat regular food." Zain stated as he looked at the meals that had spoiled in the cell.
Maybe in some cases there would be those that would try to act as human as possible, but Zain knew that it wouldn't get him anywhere, for the General, Zain had to prove how useful he could be.

"There is one other thing that you mentioned, and today we are here to see if you pass the test, if you do, then we can talk." Begal explained.
Zain was let out of his cell and brought down to the first floor. Between the stairs and the floors there was a special type of fencing that looked to have been electrified. They were locked and Zain was told to go to the open area on the first floor.
Soon, Begal and the other guards with him closed the door behind him, and walked up to the second floor. They then entered a control room, where there were several other soldiers that were acting as wardens and kept watch over the ones being held there.
"You said that the zombies, they recognise you as one of their own, well let's see how true that is." Begal stated through the microphone.
A buzzer sound had gone off, and several of the locked cells started to open, but not all of them, and the ones that did open, there were zombies that started to come out. When they did though, Begal was expecting them to swarm right towards Zain, but instead they went up to the wall, and tried to reach up at the humans that were above them.
The smile was quite wide on Begal's face. Meanwhile one of the other men that were in the room seemed to be doing something under the table. At the same time, in the Reborn group's office…
"Ma'am, we have been informed that the military has managed to capture one of us."
