"Here is...." Gray touched his head a little dizzy and looked around him with doubt...
He found himself in an oddly familiar room...
Looking closely at everything around... Gray soon showed a very shooked look...
He finally recognized the room he was in... It wasn't a room in a real sense... But the damn electrical store in the damn mall he almost lost his life in before crossing to X-potatoes world!
"Dman! How did I come back! no one told me that my ability has a retuning function!" Realizing this, Gray's heard became so tense...
He spent more than a month in the X-Men world... So he really didn't expect to come back after all of this!
Thinking of all the zombies that exist in the mall he was in right now, Gray forced himself to calm down and think carefully...
Although he gained some self-protection capabilities, he still can't see himself fighting with second awakening order zombie!
'If I knew that I'll come back again, I would have copy Azazel's gene at least... even if it costs me most of my life span' Gray regretted so much in his heart at this moment...
He planned many things on his mind and even didn't copy anything till he gains immortality first and test if he could solve his C capacity problem with a longer life span...
He even located a current wolf's location, and all he needed to do was to make a plan to came in touch only!
And now...
He actually left with only one gene! WHAT A WASTE!!!!
If he copied at least Azazel's ability, he would have the ability to survive leaving this abandoned city at least!
But regret was a regret... Thought he wanted to slap himself right now... But he had to face the crises he was in right now...
So Gray absorbed the store around him looking for few pieces of iron he could use to protect himself...
After collecting what he could use he used his ability and turned two of them into sharp iron pieces, and suspended them beside him, as self-protection ready to attack whatever might appear around him.
while most of the others twisted them around his hands and legs as armor to protect himself in case a zombie got closer to him...
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*!!!
However, before Gray decides to leave the store a loud and clear sound of gunshots attracted his ears.
"Someone out there!" Hearing the gun sounds, Gray eyes brightened a lot!
Knowing that there was someone else here was a piece of great news for him, even if he couldn't join them, at least he could slip away while they attracting the zombies' attention!
And his thoughts were quite right... Just looking outside of the store, he was able to see several zombies walking in the direction of the sounds of the gunshots.
'Follow...' Gray slowly walked toward the store exit and controlled the two pieces of iron beside him, severed two zombies' heads beside the store door, then walked quietly to the direction of the gunshot sound.
Along the way, Gray kept using his ability and silently got rid of many zombies that might notice him while moving in the shadow...
And soon Gray got closer to the sound source...
The sound came from the first floor, so Gray stayed on the second floor to avoid the marching zombies.
'A small team...' Gray walked toward the end of the sound floor and looked at what was happening on the first floor...
It was a team of three people killing the zombies not far away, these three people were obviously awakeners, a muscular middle-aged man holding a machine gun, with each bullet he shot, a zombie's head will be destroyed.
And another thin man pointed his finger around and a small fireball from the tip of his fingers kept generating and shot toward the zombies!
With every fireball he unleashes, a zombie head will explode.
And lastly was a very eye-catching woman wearing a big red trench coat covering her face with the coat hat, while her long black hair could be seen from under it, holding a spear in her hands, dancing between the zombies destroying them in a very violent way!
The way they fight together..... The zombies in the entire mall might not be enough for them to kill!!!
"Amazing..." Gray stayed on the second floor, watching the three people below slaughtering the zombies with amazement on his face...
Thought Charles and the others were also amazing... But... Not as handsome as those three...
'Second-level awakeners' Gray thought on his heart...
After all, such strength won't appear in normal first-order awakeners...
*WSHH*
While thinking of the strength of these three, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of Gray!
"What!" And Gray immediately reacted and jumped backward, at the same time he used the suspended iron pieces beside him to attack the shadow.
*BOOM*
It's just, the entire guardrail on the second floor was broken with the shadow showing up and Gray couldn't balance himself and fell down from the second floor.
"Don't shoot, I'm a human!" The first thing Gray did when he fell down was to scream at the three awakeners who naturally were attracted by the noise that was made around him!
He already felt the gun was pointed at him...
"Human?" The middle-aged man heard Gray's words and stopped his actions...
*UGHAAA*
At the same time, a sharp roar sounded from the second floor on top of Gray!
The sound was so sharp... as if the steel needle was scratching on the iron, sharp and harsh.
Gray looked up and saw a thin figure creeping on the second floor like a beast, opening his mouth, mouth full of teeth, and a long bone tail behind his butt.
"Second-order zombie" Looking at the thin shadow on the second floor, Gray's heart tightened...
When he entered this place with the team in the so-called mission before, it was this zombie that wiped out everyone...
Zombies have no fear, they only follow their instincts.
*UGHA!* With its bloody eyes... The zombie stared at Gray under him and rushed toward him...
The zombie was extremely fast for the current Gray to react...
However, before Gray could really react, the woman in the big red trench coat was faster than the zombie and appeared in front of Gray holding her spear as if she was a warrior!
"HM" The woman didn't say anything and lifted her spear directly piercing the second-order Zombie's chest!
And before the zombie could do anything she twisted her body up and threw the zombie to the side, and jumped behind it caring her spear that made a long bloodline with its movement directly penetrating the zombie's head...
"Awesome!" The second-order zombies, which was simply a nightmare for Gray... Was killed by two attacks only...
Holding the spear in her hand, the woman slashed her spreads two times removing the sticky part of the Zombies' brain, and looked at Gray behind her...
Seeing Gray's amazing look, she raised her head and looked at the two pieces of iron that were floating next to Gray calmly...
Then raised her wrist and pointed a device similar to watch at Gray...
With her action, the device shot a beam of light toward Gray scanning his body.
After doing this she looked down at the device on her wrist...
"Hmmmm....5 crystal point?? with only this little strength and dare to enter this city?" These were her first words to Gray...
"Hahaha, is that the legendary 5 combat-power scum?" As her words fell, the man with a machine gun who also came to her side couldn't help but laugh.
"Oy!... my squad was killed by this zombie some time ago, and I was trapped here for a couple of days... So...." Gray was a little embarrassed about this fact... in fact... He was really weak compared with the woman in front of him, so he answered while looking at the watch on the woman's wrist.
He knows what this watch was...
Crystal detector, a device made by an unknown awakener two years ago could measure the energy contained in the awakeners, zombies, and evolutionary beasts.
A very precious device...
The strength of all evolved beings either it was a zombie or a human or a beast were judged by the number of crystal points.
1-9 first-order.
10-99 second-order.
100-999 third-order.
1000-9999 fourth-order, and so on.
When Gray's father was around, he reached more than 300 crystal points, third-level awakeners.
And was also the reason why he managed to survive as nothing all this time...
"Well, since we meet, we can't leave you here... you will follow us for now, if you breakthrough and became a second-order awakener, I'll give you a chance to join my squad... if not, then we will part after reaching the next base..." the woman thought for a while and said...
"Okay, please take care of me in the future." Gray did not hesitate and nodded directly.
Actually, he was quite surprised by what she said... After all, it wasn't normal for anyone to trust the others after they met in this corrupted world... For her to let him stay around was already great Marcy!
For Gray, these people were quite strong, following them he will be able to leave this city safely!
"Well... It's decided! I'm Mary... Your captain from now one!" Mary took the coat cap showing her real face...
Long black hair, fair skin, pair of deep dark eyes... She was a very beautiful woman!
"I'm Gray...." Gray stared at Mary's deep eyes and also said his name...
After Gray joined, the group continued to move around the city.
On the way, everyone also introduced themselves.
Mary, the captain of the team a second-order awakener with 75 crystal points.
The thin man who was constantly releasing fireballs' name was Allen...also a second-order awakened with 52 crystal points.
As for the man who was carrying the machine gun, he's called Ogi, a second-level awakening with 38 crystal points.
And finally in this team, Gray appeared... A 5 crystal points potato, who carried everyone's extra bags...
