Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: Meeting survivors (1)

An army of silver skeletons clad in eerie black mist is marching on the highway. Looking at the bright blue soul fire in their socket, any living creature will feel the pressure of death lingering in the air. Fortunately right now, only the brainless zombies are attacking this terrifying group.

The grave keeper of the abyss stayed true to their title, armed with their silver shovel couple with their brute force, zombies are bursting into pieces whenever they encounter them.

In the center of the army, two inconspicuous figure are present. One is a very handsome boy in dark robe and a giant knight wielding a broad sword.

This ordinary zombies posed no threat to the group and can't even by pass the first layer of defense. The giant knight waved his sword from time to time producing terrifying sword energy bringing massacre to this zombies.

Adam and his army is walking sideways in this hellish City B. Their step never stop and their brutal march is unimpeded. Even the variant and evolved zombies who developed a little reason stay away from this creatures of the abyss. They can smell it, the stench of death from this skeletons and the powerlessness towards the giant knight.

In this City only one variant zombie is watching this group without the usual fear from afar. On top of the highest building in the city, a male zombie with deep red pupil with a tinge of gold is watching indifferently. He knew that he may not be the match of the marching army but keeping his life is possible.

This variant zombie is a tier 4 advance zombie with the ability to manipulate metals. With it's unmatched ability and power, evolved human or zombie who dare to step inside his territory to challenge him had never succeeded. They are either dead or abolished after fighting with him. But now, a very powerful human is rampaging in his territory and he can't do anything about it. The zombie can only growl in low voice for his dissatisfaction of the situation.

After giving a final look, the zombie jumps from building to building planning to escape the city and establishing his reign in a different area.

When the zombie was gone, Arthus glance to where the variant male zombie had stood weighing whether he should pursue or not. He can feel that in this city, the male zombie posed the greatest threat to his [ lord ]. His tier 4 intermediate power can actually contend with a tier 5 due to his class and bloodline. As an abyss demon, his fighting capability exceeds his rank and can contend or even kill those who are 1 tier above him.

But after careful consideration, he gave up the idea of killing the zombie. The [ lord ] must always be guarded and Arthus' role is the shield and sword of his majesty. Being a shield, he must always stay close to his sovereign.

During this clean up operation, Adam is very happy because after advancing, their hunting time was accelerated and their gain even double if not tripled. Even though normal zombies can only give a miniscule amount of experience as he become stronger, it is better to level up from them than to confront those unknown zombies.

Host: Adam Wiles

Level: tier 3 intermediate ( tier 4 intermediate (buffed)) (5065/100000)

After checking his progress, Adam returned to killing spree but, looking and the minced meat around him, meat become off the menu for him as of the moment, not that he have any, but in case he do.

" System, how strong am I compared to other evolutionary and awakened that you had mention."

Ding!

" The host can already manage a major base with his current level. But, there are still several people more powerful than the host in this country of Bahran. As for countries outside, the host had no qualification to know as of this moment."

' hmmm--... so this country is Bahran' Adam took note of the information.

Adam's goal in marching the highway is actually to look for a mall. He haven't forgotten yet that he needs supplies to scan with [ infinite production ] and the most needed underwear that he lack. The underwear, clothes, and utensils are the leat needed by survivors in the apocalypse. He is sure that he can find a pair or two in the mall even if it was already looted.

At the roof top of a certain apartment building near a mall, a group of people is looking for a chance to leave and recruit the kid who they saw the other day who can control an army of skeletons.

Gil holding their hand drawn map is analyzing their escape route when suddenly one of the woman in their team who act as the lookout for today ran to him hurriedly.

" Captain, he's here! " said the woman to Gil.

" The kid? " Gil looked up, shocked that the person that they are supposed to look for is coming towards where they were.

He stand up and ran towards the edge of the rooftop along with the woman. In there they saw what is unbelievable in their life, an army leisurely hacking zombies left and right is on the highway. Even the variant and evolved zombie they painstakingly avoided are hacked to death becoming minced meat in the process.

" Prepare to go down to meet him. No one is allowed to say anything stupid. Teenagers are very fickle and hard headed, especially those who possess powerful abilities. " Gil said to his team who also gathered around him to see the kid in killing spree.

" If worst comes to worst, prepare to escape and bring the information to the base." Gil added.

' I only hope the kid is reasonable and not overbearing. Wait? When did he become so good-looking and different. nah! I might have seen it wrong.'

Gathering all their things, the team were ready to go. In front was the tier 1 evolver, Gil, to make a breakthrough in case of siege. Beside him are the middle aged man Jackson and 2 other men. At the back are the two woman of the team.

With Gil's signal they started to move down the rooftop of the building which they had cleared out of zombies.

They decapitate all the zombies they had met along the way as they started to sprint towards the area where Adam was. Some zombies had seen this group and began a frantic chase of the team. Thankfully, no evolved or variant zombies had chased them because all of these zombies already escape the vicinity where Adam was.
