Jin led them to the dorms of the university. Hardik was already waiting there for jin to arrive.
A lot of bodies were lying there, some were glued to the walls, some were lying at the ground here and there.
Heavy smell of blood permeated the air. Seeing the blood on the ground, something triggered in lily and Vicky, and they jumped towards the bodies and long, gleaming fangs pierced out from their mouth and directly dug into the wounds of the ded bodies.
Rrrgh! They roared like wild monsters who had not hunted for days, and started sucking up blood from the bodies strooned across the walls.
There wounds started to heel in front of jins eyes, who was not surprised to see them behaving like this.
Let's drink a little blood while we can, or else, they will finish it all. Jin motioned to Hardik as he ducked down and face the bodies of the mutated dogs and zombies to start the action.
Blood was an essential thing for vampires, like the food for humans, a vampire needs 10-ml of blood each day, or they will slowly weaken bit by bit.
For example, if a vampire will not consume blood, he will not feel anything bad about his body, but, after 10 days, the vampire will faint after sometime, and their re-generative ability will stop re-generating their wounds.
After drinking blood from the ded bodies around him, jin felt satisfied, and removed his fangs from the body and started staring at lily and Vicky who were still drinking blood crazily.
These people are controlled by their hunger, I must stop them, or, they will turn into a hungry, bloodthirsty beast.
Hardik! Stop them! Jin ordered loudly.
Hearing the order, Hardik jumped from the place he was standing and directly lunged at lily and Vicky to stop them.
A sword aura which was weaker compared to the minor sword chi jin used to defeat the 2-meter beetle, came out from Hardik's hand and advanced towards lily and Vicky.
As the aura was about to reach them, it multiplied, and turned into two auras of smaller size than the previous one.
Hardik was shocked upon seeing what was happening to the auras, and looked at jin, hoping for an explanation from his master.
Jin didn't say anything, watching the spectacle as it goes on.
When the two auras reached lily and Vicky, the auras exploded and delt a small damage to the both of them. they then broke out of there out of controlled state, and looked at Hardik in complete shock and dismay and silence.
After some seconds, jin said "are you two alright?"
Yes, we are. Lily only managed to say this much from her mouth before both of them fainted on the spot.
Master, after some minuts in total silence, Hardik called jin for an explanation about what happened a few minuts ago.
In these few minuts, jin was examining their bodies, and when he didn't find anything wrong, he turned to Hardik and said "I know what you want to ask me, but don't worry, your questions will be answered sooner or later, have some paishence in you,.
But for now, tell me how the mutation record recognize your skill? What is the name of that skill? Jin asked Hardik.
He started reading the description out loud for jin to hear:
Minor chi aura.
Cost, 5 mana and 5 stamina.
Release a sharp aura from your hands which damages your opponents, it can multiply and can hit multiple enemies at once.
This is something different, that means this kid has potential, I must teach him everything I can be careful Hardik, your training will start now;.
Master, why are not awake yet? They should be woken up by now? Hardik asked when lily and Vicky were not coming back to their senses even half an hour passed.
"Worry not, kid, they will come back to their senses after 10-20 minuts." Jin replied.
How do you know? Hardik asked in confusion.
you know, that's all for today, lets end your questioning setion for the day. Jin replied, a little anoid from all the questions being asked.
Ok. Hardik said as he went to accompany his master to clean some zombies.
Jin didn't thought of guarding lily and Vicky while they were unconscious, because if a zombie entered accidently, his sence will tell him, and he won't be going too far also.
Jin managed to reach level 8 in that period. And Hardik who was at level 2, managed to reach level 5.
From this, jin found out that killing high level creatures means more experience to a low-level person.
O, and yes, more treasures also.
Master, I think we have cleared all the zombies from this area of the university. Hardik said huphing and panting. He was really tired.
No not yet, I can still feel the presence of one zombie, and it's very strong! We must be careful. Jin warned Hardik as they continued their way towards the powerful zombie.
Listen Hardik. Jin suddenly stopped and looked at Hardik seriously as he said what needed to be said "you are a bright student, if, if I won't return this time, then, you must establish a safe shelter for these people. You must complete what I couldn't.
Before Hardik could say anything, jin continued "here are some notes, study them, and you will become a powerful cultivator, like me! He gave Hardik a little book.
The book was something he had written while he was bored, and had nothing to do. Writing was one of the hobbies of jin. He can't stay without writing something in a few days.
Author note--- "just like me, ha-ha."
M master, why are you saying this out of a sudden? And why couldn't you return? You are too strong, who the hell in this world can defeat you? Hardik asked jin, worried for his master's safety.
Ha ha, your too naive Hardik. The truth isn't as it seems, child. Although I was very powerful in the past, but my powers had diminished over the years. I am not that much stronger now.
He continued, "and as for going their alone, so that place is too dangerous, you can't even survive one attack of that monster.
But, but master, I want to do something while you are away. Do you have anything you would like me to do? Hardik asked.
Yes Hardik. You must protect lily and Vicky at all costs. Jin was really happy to find a student who genuinely cared about him, not like those students who wanted to kill him for his cultivation.
Alright then! I will defend them at all costs, but tell me, why would you like me to protect them? Hardik asked.
From the biggening, Hardik didn't like both lily and Vicky. Specially lily, who had even dared to slap his master in front of everyone.
Jin continued his way in the university, trying to locate the monster as fast as he could manage. He was tired. He wanted to rest, but to do that, he must kill that monster, or the risk of it attacking him and Hardik will increase.
As for saving both lily and Vicky, jin only saved them for one reason, and that was potential. Jin had seen a lot of potential in Vicky and lily. If he manage to get these peoples on his side, he will be able to survive the apocalypse.
New quest received, kill the monster present in the university and stop the sponning of monsters in the university. Reward instant level-up and a chance to get a new equipment.
Hearing this message from the mutation records in his head, jin was amazed about the power the mutation record held over the creatures.
How amazing, it can even comprehend my cultivation, and can also give me pretty good rewards!
Jin had almost reached the monsters whereabouts. He glimpsed at its information through his mind.
Zara Quan, the heaven swallowing star. Level-20.
The fight will now begin which will decide the future of the entire India and its peoples.
Chapter end.
