2024-04-22 10:05:32The sky was still bright with the thunderbolts criss-crossing crazily with no end in sight. A brother was carrying his wounded sister of 16 and brought her to the hospital, hoping someone would be there to help her.
But what awaited him were zombies that jumped onto them and devoured them alive. Soon, the siblings soon turned into zombies as well. And they roamed the neighborhood with half-eaten bodies. Both of them still had energy stone pendants hanging around their necks.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, they ran toward the source, and what awaited them was Gary.
With his fists, he destroyed their heads. The brother and sister were killed with one punch as their levels were weak, whereas the higher leveled zombies required multiple punches.
One of the other zombies managed to bite on Gary’s fist, but having already absorbed the energy of zombies, he had developed the resistance to the parasitic virus flowing through zombie’s saliva as well as their sweat and their very breath.
He did not waste a second and actively destroyed all the zombies as they were spreading disease just by existing.
[Congratulations! You’ve defeated 100 zombies and earned the title Zombie Killer. Ordinary zombies now feel fear when they see you. They will no longer come to you but will run when they see you. But the stronger zombies will see you as a threat and try to destroy you! So, beware!]
[You’ve leveled up!]
“You reached level 18!]
“Damn, I have to chase the low-level zombies now?” Gary didn’t know if this was a good thing or not. “Anyway, the stronger ones might come at me on their own, so I should be able to level up by dealing with the stronger ones.”
[If you kill 1000 zombies, you’ll earn the Zombie Hunter title.] Ai told him.
“What’s the use of having that title?” Gary couldn’t help but ask.
[You will gain ‘purity’ to your fists, which means your punches can have the same effect as that of the magical attacks of priests.]
“Oh, but I can’t be wasting my time on low-level scrubs,” Gary rushed forth and reached the hospital. “You sure there’s a strong monster here in this building?”
[Yeah, and that’s what has started creating the zombies in this neighborhood. It should be around level 25.]
“T-Twenty five?” Gary’s heart skipped a beat. “That’s like seven levels higher than me. There’s no way I can beat that.”
[Fight all the lower-level zombies in the hospital and gain more resistance. Then, it will give you an advantage against that beast.]
Ai’s words somehow convinced Gary. He entered the hospital. At first, there was nobody in sight, but when he entered one of the rooms, dozens of them swarmed onto him, and he couldn’t have asked for more. He utterly destroyed them left and right despite getting wounded. After a nasty struggle, he emerged victorious.
“You said they’ll run away, but they clearly didn’t,” Gary complained.
[They are not ordinary zombies, that’s why. They are upgraded ones and have some intelligence. That’s why they are not afraid of you and waited for you to enter this room.]
Gary’s heart skipped a beat. “This means that one who created them must also be strong and intelligent. I have to be careful, or I’ll become food.”
He explored one floor after another and killed more than 200 zombies before reaching the top floor, where it was eerily silent.
“I can feel it,” Gary said as he walked along the corridor carefully. “It’s in that last room.”
After reaching closer, he steeled his heart and kicked the door open and was almost petrified to see a humanoid tiger zombie eating from a dead person’s brain using a spoon.
The tiger zombie glanced at him and wasn’t surprised at all but instead smiled, sending shivers down his spine. In fear, Gary bolted from there.
The tiger zombie immediately chased him.
Gary put all the available 200 stat points into his speed, which suddenly boosted his speed. Just as the tiger zombie caught up, he was able to reach the end of the corridor and break his way through the glass wall from the seventh floor.
He crashed on top of an ambulance and rolled down to the ground. He suffered bruises but he didn’t break any bones.
He looked up toward the seventh floor, and the tiger zombie was staring down at him as if looking down on someone inferior. Gary felt a chill run up his spine as he saw nothing but cruelty and madness in the gaze of that bloody-lipped tiger zombie which stood eight-foot-tall.
[If you want to be a hero who can save the world, you have to face monsters like this one.] Ai’s voice rang in his mind. [If you back away now, you’ll definitely fail to reach level 100 within 24 hours.]
Ai’s words made Gary grind his teeth.
[If it makes you feel any better, then I’ve gotta tell you that the tiger zombie was formed because some other zombie bit on that tiger.] Ai told him. [So, the zombie that made this humanoid tiger was probably even stronger than this tiger. So, if you can’t defeat this little tiger zombie, then you sure as heaven won’t be able to defeat the one that created this fellow.]
Gary clenched his fists and raised his middle finger up toward the zombie tiger.
Angered, the tiger zombie squatted down and leaped forth from the seventh floor with a mighty scream that sent a shiver down Gary’s spine.
Shoving his fear into the depths of his heart, Gary howled at the top of his lungs and kicked up at the tiger zombie. “Die!”

A few minutes later.Sesi returned with a honeycomb that was bigger than her. It was only a part of the honeycomb she had ripped from the full honeycomb.But the smell of the honey was so thick it made Gary and Leah give it a taste before Sesi offered them.However, they didn’t taste it directly.Leah first put her honey-coated finger in Gary’s hand. He told her it was good and then put his honey-coated finger in her mouth. She nodded in agreement, and her countenance also greatly brightened.“This is really sweet,” Leah’s voice also became more lively, which surprised Sesi all the more. She didn’t think Leah had such a positive side to her as she mostly looked serious so far.It was as if Leah had become a teenager after tasting the honey and temporarily forgot all her burdens.The way Gary and Leah interacted also changed. The mood has lightened very much.Sesi was beginning to see what could have made these two fall in love with each other. As she was also starting to feel a bit je
CHAPTER 146
Gary and his team were going down the lonely path which was covered with thick leaves that were up to their ankle height.Some of these leaves were big enough for multiple humans to sleep upon.The road itself was wide as a river.Everything was big, and Goya was feeling a bit dizzy from the scale as it was quite awesome and fearsome at the same time.Wendevorr sniffed the air. “I smell something sweet.”“The hunter bees live in the east,” Liu said. “They live in groups, so I don't think we should bother them.”“If there are bees, then we can find honey, right?” Sesi snickered, bumping her fists together, releasing flames through her hair. “It’s going to be easy to chase them away with my ability.”“Let’s go and lick some fresh honey then,” Liu suddenly changed his attitude as he had longed to taste the Hunter’s Honey but couldn’t do so because the hunter bees were quite dangerous.“All of us aren’t needed,” Gary said. “Liu and Sesi. Both of you will take care of it. We’ll keep walkin
CHAPTER 145
“I asked for grape juice!” Sesi barked. “But what the hell is this?”“It is grape juice,” the innkeeper looked offended. “It’s fresh. If you drink it, you’ll know.”“You want me to DRINK THIS?” Sesi’s eyes turned red. Rowan grabbed her hand because he felt like she might slap the innkeeper out of anger. “Can a human even drink this? No, even monkeys won’t go near this shit!”Sesi’s words offended not just the innkeeper but also the other customers who loved the grape juice. After all, those grapes were harvested from the grape trees growing in the same village, the Newmere village. So, their pride was hurt when Sesi mocked the grape juice.“Sesi,” Leah intervened. “There’s no need to cause a scene if you didn’t like the drink.”“Leah, just look at this!” she pointed at the mug. “The grape skin and seeds are floating in the drink! How am I supposed to drink it? Uwwgh, I feel like vomiting just thinking about it!”“Maybe, they don’t add grapeskin and seeds in the drink, but we leave the
CHAPTER 144
The adult customers were in awe and disbelief, whereas the children were giggling and smirking from seeing Prince Liu personally serving drinks to a foreign group of four.From Liu, they came to know that the trees in the village weren’t giant a few decades back, but ever since cultivators began to bury the bodies of some beasts around the village, the trees absorbed the nutrients and grew in size and produced food all year, which improved the livelihood of the villagers very much.“You’re only twenty two years old?” Rowan’s eyes bulged in shock. “What the heck, man? You look like you’re forty years old!”Liu angrily smiled. “Yeah, some people say that to me, but all the girls in this village would die to marry me. It’s just that I haven’t found the right woman for me yet.” His eyes fell on Sesi.“Don’t even think about it,” Sesi retorted coldly. “You’re not at all my type. Too macho for me to even feel anything.”Liu then looked at Leah, but she was just fully immersed in talking wit
CHAPTER 143
If reality blended seamlessly with dreams, then it would look like what Gary and everyone else was staring at right now.The towering mountains and crystalline rivers aside, there were young children riding on big foxes and were plucking fruits off the trees. There were beautiful young ladies riding butterflies that flitted from flower to flower and helped the ladies collect honey in leather sacs.The small village that Gary and his friends had first been to was full of giant trees and animals, but the humans were of normal size.The village guards escorted them to the inn and said, “Don’t cause any trouble, or you’ll regret it.”Goya found their words offensive. “Should I just beat him up and show him his place?”“Don’t cause unnecessary trouble,” Wendevorr told her. “Did you already forget what Lord Gary told us? We’re not supposed to fight anyone unless it gets life-threatening.”Goya seemed disappointed. “But that’s boring.”After killing so many monsters, Goya was still in the sl
CHAPTER 142
By the time Gary and his team left the woods, having absorbed the crystal cores and boosting their stats and abilities, they felt more confident than ever.Goya was sitting cross-legged on top of Wendevorr’s head. She was at level 698, and he was at level 699.Rowan increased by ten levels and reached 612.Sesi increased to level 630.Leah went from level 700 to 703.Gary’s level was exactly 800 after defeating the mighty wolf Wynn. He felt much stronger than your average level 800 being would, but he still felt like his current strength was nowhere near enough to deal with all the seven keys, much less their boss, the Immortal King.Leah and Sesi were discussing a lot ever since Leah regained her memories. Sesi wanted to know their love story, so Leah kept telling her everything. Some of the details were a bit too embarrassing, so Gary kept his distance from the ladies.Rowan was leading the group in the front. “I’m still the lowest-leveled in the group, dammit. I know I should be ha
