Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: Becoming Stronger and The trace of Survivors

Ding!

" Congratulation host for reaching level 3. Reward +10 in all attributes, 1 token and 3 unknown fragment (5/100).

progress: Level 3 (300/3000) "

After deciding to experiment the fighting ability of the skeletons, Adam ordered his summon upon finding an area with fewer number of zombies numbering up to 47 to directly confront the zombie mobs.

In the confrontation, the skeletons were able to eliminate the zombies only then to be besieged of other group of zombies who were attracted by the fight.

10 skeleton warriors can probably contend against 100 zombies but once the space were overwhelmed by their number, the skeletons have limited space for action. Therefore after the area was flooded by numerous zombies, ten skeleton were abolished as their bones were scattered around then dissipating into black smokes indicating that their purpose was done.

This is how Adam know that even though zombies won't take the initiative to attack the skeletons, once they started to attack, zombie will instinctively try to eliminate them.

The visual effect of having a sea of zombies completely terrified poor Adam. ' Never provoke zombie gangs again.... never!'

After this fight Adam chose to run for his life and find an empty area to summon ten skeleton warriors again, undo his phantom state, summon the skeletons and use [ phantom traveller ] again. ' smooth transition if I may add.'

In the following hours, Adam only hunted fewer mobs who pose no threat to the skeletons and continue to upgrade leisurely.

' I must quickly find a mall to look for clothes.' , Adam said towards himself glancing at his dirty and tattered clothes owned by the injured version of Adam before transmigration.

Ding!

" Congratulation for reaching level 4....

Congratulation for reaching level 5.....

.."

After a few hours of hunting zombies Adam had leveled up continuously. As of now, the number of skeleton warriors had increased to 30 skeletons which is more than enough to hunt a hundred zombie. As for his strength, it is already at 100.0, 20 times the base strength of human. A skeleton is already reaching 20.0, 4 times the base attributes of human. But the sad thing is that as he level up, the zombie hunted only gives smaller amount of experience. Currently, a zombie can only now give 30 experience points and leveling up becomes harder.

As night approaches, Adam found a building with fewer zombies and quickly dispose of them. He needs a safe area to undo his phantom state and enter [ Garden of the King ].

" Well, this should be safe enough." , Adam said as he look at his magnificent work. A perfectly sealed room with piles of furniture right at the door of the room.

He needs to be cautious. He had not forgotten the warning of the system about evolved human and zombies which may prove to threaten his life.

After making sure that everything is alright, Adam then undo his phantom state and enter [ Garden of the King ].

...

...

In a building several several distance from Adam, a group of people are gathered watching a certain zombie with sharp claws with a deep red eyes full of killing intent. The zombie is a primary stage zombie who had little intellect. It is a speed type primary zombie known for it's powerful hunting capabilities, called as Hunter by the survivors.

The zombie looks like a dried up corpse, looks fragile but a very terrifying vibe is being released. This is the aura produced by a predator, blood thirsty and savage.

Currently, the hunter is eating a middle aged woman who had failed to escape the claws of the zombie.

The woman is part of the group of people who had escaped and lock their selves in an apartment. Unfortunately as these team of survivor plan to settle for the night, a hunter is lurking around the corner and lunges at them resulting to the death of the woman.

Among these survivor, a man, probably 25 or 26 years old is leading the 5 remaining member of his team. Among these people, he is the only evolutionary. Unfortunately, he is only a simple human evolutionary possessing 5 times the base strength of humans. He is not like those powerful evolutionary who awakened a certain ' legacy ' making them more powerful, controlling elements, sword and such.

Those awakened evolutionary are very powerful, enough for them to establish bases on their own.

The man and his team belong to such bases. Their base is known as Pandora, a base created by a powerful awakened evolutionary who inherited the legacy of the 'Flame Magician Orthos'. During the start of the apocalypse, their leader were able to gather people with his flame burning everything on it's wake.

'Legacy' can be achieved by those who are destined or if you belong to certain special family who suddenly awakened the power inherited on their blood.

" Gil, is the hunter outside have no plan to leave this area?", a middle age man asked the younger leader.

" The hunter haven't finished its meal yet. We had already escape it's range and are safe at the moment. We only need the opportunity to leave this place.", Gil replied.

The middle aged man breath a sigh of relief. Currently, the middle age man looks very buff with his bulging muscles armed with a machete that is still dripping with blood from killing zombies. The team is consist of 4 men and 2 women on their early twenties. They are tasked to locate the mall in B city and see if supplies can still be obtained.

" We'll rest here for the night. Let's have shift in looking out and will leave tomorrow as soon as possible when the hunter is gone." Gil said.

In this team, Gil is the only one who can contend with a hunter. If replaced with the rest of the team, they will only serve as tougher food for the hunter. Even the buff middle age man can't contend with a hunter.

" Gil, someone had entered building 2 streets from here." , said one of the women who saw Adam escorted by the skeletons who is looking for a safe place to enter his space.

Gil immediately saw Adam and is very shocked seeing the young man who is surrounded by the skeleton warriors.

The skeleton warriors looks very imposing with their shear number of 30. One thing only comes into Gil's mind. ' An awakened! this young man is an awakened evolutionary.'

Awakened evolutionary varies in their special abilities. Seeing Adam surrounded by skeletons is completely normal for him.

'But, what is a young awakened doing here alone?'

Gil only saw Adam entered the building then later saw zombies being thrown out of the window or door by the skeletons. Judging from the zombies' state, the skeleton had probably disposed of them.
