Chereads / I Inherited A Dream System / Chapter 57 - Super Zombies

Chapter 57 - Super Zombies

 A red chain lashes out, quickly wrapping around a zombie and then launching it into the sky. Shawn Kindle continues to swing his corruption chains, using them to decimate scores of the undead.

Milady Benson: Is it just me... (Milady says as she leaps into the air, stabbing her glowing red knives into the skull of a muscular zombie, quickly bringing it down to the ground)... Or are these zombies getting bigger and stronger? (Milady continues as she pulls her knives out of the head of the zombie)

Silas Gravestone: Inspect. (Silas says as he inspects the dead zombies)

[Inspect]

[Name: Super Zombie]

[Race: Humanoid Type Nightmare Being]

[Level: Low Grade Nightmare Being]

[Skills: Undead Physiology]

[Status: Untamed]

Silas Gravestone: Not quite, Milady. These zombies are different from the ones we've been fighting. They're stronger, but still just Low Grades... I don't like this. (Silas tells them)

Seth Wild: What's not to like?! (Seth asks as he slams an axe into the chest of a large zombie, finishing it off with a strike to it's head)... I'm getting a great workout. (Seth says with a satisfied smile)

Silas Gravestone: It feels like we're being tested. The zombies are slowly getting stronger, which leads me to believe that there must be a higher power at play here. (Silas

tells them)

Susie Walters: You sound so confused, aren't you supposed to know everything about this place, isn't that why you brought us here? (Susie asks, anger in her tone of voice)

Silas Gravestone: I was told that powerful Nightmare Beings could be found here, and that was all I needed to know. (Silas tells her firmly)

Zeus Eduardo Everest: So our fearless leader doesn't know why we haven't run into any of these powerful Nightmare Beings yet, just great. Really shows your leadership skills. (Zeus says while sitting on a large mound of dead zombie corpses)

Harry: I might know what's going on. (Harry tells them, currently in his human form)

Silas Gravestone: What is it, Harry? (Silas asks him)

Harry: It's me. I believe that my mere presence here is scaring away all of the Nightmares. Which can only mean that they are not as strong as I am. (Harry explains)

Zeus Eduardo Everest: So it's your fault that we've been wasting our time here? (Zeus asks angrily)

Harry: I apologize for not realising this sooner. But before I take my leave, I must warn you all of one thing. This Nightmare Being may not be as powerful as I am, but it is very intelligent. Once I leave, prepare for a full on assault. (Harry warns them)

Silas Gravestone: Thanks for the advice, Harry. I'll call you if we need you. (Silas tells him)

Harry: Please do, Young Master. Please do. (Harry says before he vanishes into thin air)

Zeus Eduardo Everest: (Scoffs) We don't need him. There's no monster in this world that can beat a Destroyer. (Zeus says confidently)

 Suddenly the ground begins to tremble and quake, and off in the distance a massive hand bursts out of the ground, followed by the giant upper body of an enormous undead creature.

 The giant monster roars to the sky, commanding an army of super zombies to rise from their graves, all snarling at the villains.

Silas Gravestone: You guys wanted a fight right? Well here it is. Remember that you can't rely on your Nightmares in this fight, only use them if your life is on the line. (Silas tells them)

Milady Benson: You really expect us to beat that thing on our own? (Milady asks in fear, pointing at the giant zombie and it's army of super zombies)

Silas Gravestone: No, I want you all to work together as a team. Together we can win this fight. (Silas tells them)

Seth Wild: Screw that! (Seth says as red energy surrounds his body, encasing it in a suit of blood red armour)... I'm gonna kill some zombies! (Seth yells as he rushes into the fight, his red axes swinging violently to cut apart the zombies in his path)

Milady Benson: Um, I don't have any armour yet. So I'm going with the teamwork option... Be my partner, Shawn? (Milady asks him sweetly)

Shawn Kindle: It will be my pleasure. (Shawn says as he dons his red armour, ready to fight alongside Milady)

Milady Benson: Good, then let's do this! (Milady says with glee as she rushes forward, her red knives cutting off limbs as she moves quickly through the undead horde)

 The corruption chains lash out of shawn's armour, knocking away most of the zombies in the process. He intended to smash their bodies to pieces like before, but the zombies were now too strong for that to happen.

Shawn Kindle: Spikes! (Shawn yells out, making his chains instantly develop sharp spikes)... Let's try this again! (Shawn bellows as he swings his spiked chains, easily cutting apart the zombies before him)

Silas Gravestone: He's strong. They're all strong. (Silas says to himself, impressed by everyone's display of strength)... What about you two, aren't you going to fight? (Silas asks Zeus and Susie, who were doing nothing but watch the others fight)

Susie Walters: There is a time for everything, and now is not the time for me to fight. (Susie replied calmly, her glowing blue staff held firmly in her hands)

Zeus Eduardo Everest: Same here, why waste my time fighting lackeys, when I can just skip to the main boss. (Zeus says before he gets up from the mound of corpses)... Should be around time by now, right? (Zeus asks with a smile)

Susie Walters: You know me so well. (Susie says as her eyes begin to glow blue with energy)... Purification, Wave!!! (Susie yells as she raises her staff into the air, and then slams it back down on the ground)

 A powerful wave of energy washes over the landscape, making most of the zombies scream in agonizing pain, their rotten flesh literally melting off their undead bodies. Seth, Shawn and Milady are at first shocked by this, but quickly take advantage of the opportunity to attack these zombies, who could not fight back.

Zeus Eduardo Everest: I miss being able to do that. (Zeus says with a smile as crimson red energy begins to surround his body, making him grow bigger and stronger)... But nothing beats the feeling, of being a Destroyer! (Zeus bellows, his large body now encased in a hulking suit of red armour)

Next: Tested.
