Level up Zombie - Chapter 180: Level 3

Chapter 180: Level 3

After checking that they had everything they needed with them, including their weapons and supplies, Dali and his group were ready to move out. As for where they were heading, well, they had two options in their minds.

“Have you decided yet?” Nit asked as they continued to walk down the road where the subway station was located. They could head straight on or to the left or right of the city. There was a reason why Nit was asking the crucial question now of all times.

Because their two choices were in opposite directions.

“I’ve heard that there is a base in the west, and I am sure you know about it as well. The problem is if we go there, I’m pretty sure we will be asked to play a big part in their operation, or we might not be let in at all.” Dali replied.

“But it can’t be worse than roaming around like we have been doing. The situation is getting more dangerous. We were lucky to get you and your brother back.” Nit replied.

When they finally reached the crossing, where there were several zebra crossings on the road, they stopped. That was when Dali looked toward the east.

“The message we found said to head to the east of the city if we were a part of the Reborn group. But what does that even mean? I can’t even imagine what would happen if we were to head there.” Dali said his thoughts aloud.

As he and the group looked to the right, waiting for a decision to be made, they suddenly heard a scream coming from in front of them. People were running as fast as they could, huffing and panting, full of torn clothing down the street.

They looked similar to the desperate ones that had attacked them before, and that was why the others raised their weapons, ready to fight again. But with a closer look on their faces, they appeared to be running for their lives instead.

Their eyes were enlarged, and some didn’t have shoes on, but none of it slowed them down.

“What are they running from?” Nit wondered.

Behind them, a few zombies could be seen, but there were only the odd one or two. It certainly wasn’t enough for the humans to be panicking so much, especially since there were around five of them, more than the zombies.

Looking at the group running, at the very back, one of the Zombies had been stabbed right through its chest. A large pointed object was bending upwards out of its body and soon was thrown to the ground.

Hovering over it, looking down, was a strange skinny creature. It didn’t quite look like a zombie, not the Spitter or the Titans. It was around 8 feet tall and was mostly bone, yet it had several strange spikes sticking out from its body that looked more like human bones.

All of them were pointed and covered in blood as well. As for its face, it was non-existent, all that could be seen were small teeth that looked to be overlapping each other in some way and sticking out of the mouth. With its face, it dug into the zombie and started to consume it bit by bit.

“What the F*ck is that? I’ve never seen anything like it before!” Bob shouted.

Turning around and running would be the best thing to do in a situation like this, and they thought about it for a second until the creature had lifted up its head, and ran on its legs towards the next person, which was a human closest.

Swinging its sharp curve shaped arm that looked like the end of a scythe, it ripped the person’s head off in one swing. Instead of using its mouth to consume it as it had done for the zombie, it continued moving to the next, leaping up in the air, and landing right on top of another person.

All of their bones had been crushed, and then extending from its stomach was one of the pointed bones extended out from its body stabbing the man right through the head, killing him in an instant.

Running again after killing its next victim, it went to the next thing closest which was another Zombie and it was a repeat of the last time, after the Zombie was killed, it began to consume it right there and then on the spot.

“That thing…why is it only eating the Zombies?” Nit asked.

“I don’t think that matters right now, everyone, get ready, protect yourselves at all costs. That thing is killing whatever it reaches first, huddle up!” Dali ordered.

All of them gathered, with their backs facing each other. From what Dali could see, it was impossible to outrun the creature because it was far faster than anything they had faced.

After it dealt with the Zombie, it was going for the rest one by one. Then it lifted its head toward their direction. Even though it had no eyes, the creature was looking dead right at them.

“Bob, will you stop shaking! My back is touching yours and I can feel it. I’m going to drop my weapon!” Nit shouted.

“You really think we can kill that f*ck? We are dead, so dead!” Bob was on the verge of crying.

pan,da-n0v el The creature started to run towards them like it did the others, and now not only was Bob shaking, they all were. The moments in their lives, the happiest times they had were flashing through their head at that moment.</o>

Some even felt a warm substance down their legs. When the creature got close enough it leapt up with its two hands ready to slice right through their bodies.

Just then, the red haired student, with two machetes was seen in the air, came between them and the creature and swung the machetes down, slashing at the two arms of the creature. It was a powerful attack with a lot of weight behind it that caused its arms to swing down and hit the floor.

Then with the machete in his hand, Zain swung it again, hitting the side of its body, causing the large thing to go swinging to the side and crash right into a car.

“Give me my platinum reward,” Zain said, turning his head to the creature, who soon got out and bared its fangs toward him.
