Advent of the Divine Mechanic

Zombies? kill!

The next moment the entire mall descended into pure chaos as people tried to run far away from the zombies.

By now even more zombies had exited the gateways and were already on their hunting spree.

“Idiots!”

Seeing the crowd was pushing each other Dante couldn't help but let out a curse involintarily.

With the way they were behaving more people would die instead of escaping!

At this moment they were more like mindless animals running without direction rather than intelligent humans.

“I also can't stand here like this.”

Muttering to himself, Dante searched around for a suitable weapon which quickly turned out to be a mopping stick some cleaner had dropped earlier.

Twisting the head off he swung it around a bit to gain a measure of the improvised weapons limits before deciding that this was balanced enough for him to use. It wasn't perfect but at least it was better than not having a weapon on him.

At exactly the same moment a zombie arrived at his floor of the mall and their eyes met.

“It's show time!”

While everyone was trying their best to escape from the horrors behind them Dante was the only one who was actively running towards it causing the people to look at him with a “he's gone mad look" Dante however didn't mind.

In fact he didn't even see it!

" If I remember correctly this should be a rankless zombie, no? Shouldn't be difficult to take out.”

During the apocalypse in his past life there had been rankings for the levels of both zombies and mutated beasts.

The first tier was actually a rankless zombie and they were the type that usually came out of the gateways first.

Mindless beasts driven by pure instincts, they were actually easy to eliminate since they were only slightly stronger than your average human.

As long as you had some common sense they were pretty easy to kill.

After that came the ranked zombies going from the F tier straight up to the A tier. There were rumours of an higher rank above the A tier but he had never seen it before. But just the F rank was enough to use him to wipe the floor.

Heck he got done in by a measly D rank zombie king in his last life!

Shaking these thoughts off his mind he raised the stick horizontally across his chest to ward off the zombies claws at the same time he gave it a quick sweep with his leg causing it to stagger.

Before the zombie could regain it's footing the mopping stick was already smashing into its face, a mini gale forming behind it as the poor stick bent to breaking point!

CRUNCH

With a sickening crunch the zombie's entire head exploded into pieces!

The force behind the strike was so strong that the stick actually ended up breaking into two!

“Damn it I broke the stick!. “

Without even bothering to look at the dead zombie Dante rushed towards the stairs.

Although it was relatively easy to kill the zombie, that was because it was alone, if it was a horde then even he would be helpless.

Furthermore he was still an ordinary, baseline human with no weapon at that.

Along the way he changed the remaining half of the stick with a fire axe he had found. The axe had a long handle and although the blade was a bit smaller it would suffice for now or at least till the system finished it's stupid update.

With a new weapon in hand it was like Dante had become a slaughter god as he cut down the zombies like he was cutting wheat and whenever he encountered a horde he promptly took the opposite direction.

With this strategy and how effective he was at clearing the zombies it didn't take him long to arrive at the ground floor.

By now the white marble tiling had turned a deep crimson while numerous zombies could still be seen chasing after some people.

Making sure not to attract the attention of any of the zombies, Dante quickly left the mall appearing outside.

The outside of the mall was even more chaotic as there were more zombies outside along with strange monsters that were prowling the campus grounds. The whole scene looked like a purgatory!

Running towards a small ice cream shop he hid behind the counter to catch his breath.

Currently Dante's reason for even appearing on the campus in the first place had to do with something that happened in his pastlife precisely it had originated on this campus. It was so valuable back then that the military had even sent a special force inside the city back then!

If he hadn't awakened the Black gear system then this wouldn't have mattered at all and his plans would have changed but he had awakened it and he just had to get it now as it was just too valuable for him as a mechanic.

Right now his destination was the school's research laboratory which coincidentally he had worked there before.

Now that he thought about it he couldn't help but wonder if the system had predicted that this would happen hence the mission with professor Germaine.

“Growll roarr.”

He was still in thought when a zombie suddenly popped up above the counter in front of him baring it's bloody maw at him. He could see the signs of what seemed to be strips of human flesh hanging from it's teeth.

It was so disgusting that any normal person would have fainted from the putrid stench and terrifying visuals.

But was Dante normal?

Swish!

With a quick fling of his wrist the axe whistled in the air. Before the zombie could even take another step it's head was already flying in the air.

“A simple zombie like you dares to ambush me? Do you know who this daddy is? I am the great…oh shit!”

Stomping on the zombie head that was rolling towards him he was feeling smug of himself when he suddenly saw a small horde of zombies enter the small ice cream shop.

Turns out the first zombie wasn't alone!

Without hesitation Dante rushed out of the window.

He might be rash at times but he wasn't stupid this was time to run!
