Hugo scoffed. He tilted his head to the side as he threw the piece of wood in his hands toward the people who were chasing after him. He looked around and saw that it was possible to jump over the tree if he will just do it at the right time.

He shrugged his shoulders and looked back. Since there was still distance between him and the remaining 6 people who were running after him, he closed his eyes and teleported right on top of the tree's branch.

"Damn, so why was I fighting all along if I could do this?" he asked himself. His forehead creased. He sat comfortably on the tree's branch and leaned against the body of the tree.

It was funny for him to see that the zombie-like creatures became confused about how he can suddenly disappear. They stopped running after him and looked around.

"Are they blind?"

He curiously wondered. He noticed that even after they repeatedly looked around for a couple of minutes, they still haven't got any idea where he was.

An idea crossed his mind. He teleported right to the back of the comfort room silently. He took out a stone and held onto it tightly before he teleported to another tree, different from where he was earlier.

"Does that mean they're only sensitive to the smell of blood? Or are they sensitive to sound too?"

Trusting his assumptions, Hugo tried to cut the tip of his fingers using the end of the stone. He felt a pang of pain in his fingers as blood dripped down from them.

"Let's see."

He slowly went down the tree, being careful to not make any sound.

He held onto his breath as he put a force on his wounded finger. When a drop of his blood reached the ground, the zombie-like people focused their attention in his direction.

He immediately teleported right into another tree. He placed his wounded hand on his mouth, sucking the blood dry.

'So, they are really our sensitive to the smell of blood."

He uttered when he saw how the people came rushing to the tree earlier even if he wasn't there already. Confirming one of his assumptions, he stared at the stone that was left in his hands.

"Now, for my second assumption…"

Hugo took a deep sigh. He threw the stone with full force in a different direction, and just what he expected, the zombie-like people, rushed towards where the sound came from.

They were rushing here as if that was the only thing their mind could comprehend was the sound.

When he saw what was happening, he didn't know how to react. "Is this what will happen to the people that I saw inside that room in the hospital?"

He curiously asked himself. He was now hesitant if whether he should save those people or not.

'Will they act the same way if I saved them? Or are they still human?'

That was the question running into his mind.

He sat on the tree for too long that he forgot that Abigail was supposed to come and save him. Well, it's not like he needed some saving anyway, since he could just teleport right back into his house.

However, it would be a problem if Abigail will come back and he wasn't here.

'I guess, I'll just watch things here.' He looked around.

Now that he remembered it, there must be someone behind all of this. He was sure that Julius wouldn't harm him in any way, right at this moment, since he was still needed.

"So who should be the culprit?" His forehead turned a straight line as he thought of it. Standing up, he jumped over to one of the tree's higher branches.

He moved his body closer to its main body, hugging them tightly so he wouldn't fall.

At the place, he could see the overall view of the park. He carefully surveyed the area, his eyes not leaving any details.

"What is that?" He breathed out when he saw a man wearing full black clothes from afar. In his hands was a telescope, and it seems like he was trying to look at what was currently happening in the park in a distance.

When he saw that the man's telescope was turning in his direction, he immediately jumped down the tree. It created a loud sound, catching the zombie-like people's attention.

However, he couldn't care less.

He picked up a fallen branch on the ground and teleported right towards the man's place. He knew for sure that he didn't expect it all, knowing that his full attention was on the telescope.

"Who are you?"

His voice became deeper as he placed the pointed tip of the branch towards the man's neck. The man froze in the spot. The telescope in his hands fell down to the ground. But he quickly covered.

He hit Hugo using his shoulder, causing his hold to loosen. The man was able to get away and the first thing that he thought of was to run away.

When Hugo saw it, he immediately chased after him. Now he was the one running to catch someone.

'Being chased at was better than chasing someone.'

He tilted his head to the side. He increased his speed until he was able to overtake the man by pushing him down to the ground.

When the man has no choice, he took the gun out of his pocket. "Raised your hands if you still want to live!"

"Don't you know how I hate guns?" He scoffed. He didn't mind the man's gun pointing at his direction.

*Bang *Bang

Two gunshots echoed in the whole park. The bullet quickly went in the direction of Hugo's body, but he just easily dodged them all off.

"I was already hit by that gun two times." Hugo chuckled as he went closer to him fearlessly. He holds onto his collar, raising him up in from the ground. "And I won't hit by that for the third time."

He stared at him murderously. He gripped the wood that was in his left hand tightly. It was as if he was possessed by something that he didn't even think twice but to pierce that wood right into the man's heart.

The man coughed up blood. He wasn't able to say nor create any sound. His body got heavy as he fell to the ground when Hugo removed his hand from his collar.

He looked at the man's lifeless body without any remorse. He knelt on the ground, trying to find where his phone was.

When he saw it, he grinned when he saw that there was no password in protecting it.

He opened his camera and took a pic of the man's lifeless body. He was covered in blood, and his eyes were still wide awake, not having the time to react to what Hugo did.

In there, he was able to see Julius's contact number.

His grin became wider as he sent the pic to him.

When he was done, he turned off the phone and looked at it. He knew that he can't just leave this alone here since it already contains his fingerprint.

So the only thing that he could do now broke the phone into his pieces using his strength. He was able to crash it into pieces, not even recognizable from its original shape.

Hearing the loud sound of a siren, Hugo looked back to the main park. When he saw that there were countless cars driving around them, he immediately teleported back right into the tree where he was staying at.

When he was back, his eyes widened when he saw that the people who were chasing after him earlier were now lying on the ground. They do not have any wounds and their bodies weren't bleeding.

They were just lying there as if the one controlling them has died already.

"Don't tell me…" He immediately looked back to see where he left the man that he killed earlier.

He walked closer to one of the unconscious bodies of them and searched their heads. In there, he was able to find a silver circle on the corner of their head.

"They're being controlled by that man from earlier. That means they are different from those who were locked up in the hospital."

When he stood up, the sound of the sirens stopped as well.

Abigail who asked for help from the authorities came back with tears pooling in her eyes. "Hugo!" She loudly shouted when she saw his body in the middle.

She gasped when she saw that there were a lot of unconscious bodies on the ground.

Hugo who saw her reaction shook his head.

"I do not know what happened, but they aren't dead." He informed her.

"Then what happened to them?" Abigail was still in a state of shock. She was surprised that she was wary of her surroundings in case she ever step on any parts of their bodies.

"It seems like they are getting controlled."
