Ch.16 Apple of Vitality
[Mortal-Rank Skill Book (Lvl 1) – Small Fireball][Description: Releases a small fireball to attack enemies. A basic offensive spell commonly practiced by mage-class professions. Before upgrading to Level 2, it can only be used once every 3 days.][Sell Value: 100 System Coins]Raiden studied the book, turning it over in his hands. The skill was fire-based, which didn't suit his combat style. He relied on close-quarters swordsmanship, not magic."This skill is not suited for me," Raiden muttered.Mira and Kade approached, curiosity on their faces."What is that?" Kade asked.Raiden raised the skill book. "It's a Level 1 Mortal-Rank Skill Book. Small Fireball. Which one of you wants it?"Mira looked at the book, then shook her head. "Let Kade have it. I don't need it. I'm better with the sword."Kade's eyes widened. "Are you sure? This seems valuable.""Take it," Raiden said, holding it out. "You'll make better use of it than me."Kade accepted the book carefully, like it might explode
Ch.15 Dormitory District
Thirty minutes later, they reached the edge of the dormitory district.The girls' dormitory was a large, four-story building made of red brick. Normally it housed over three hundred students.Now, the windows were dark. The front entrance stood open with the doors hanging off their hinges.Blood smeared the walls near the entrance.But what caught their attention was the pathway leading to the building.Bodies were everywhere. Headless zombie corpses littered the ground, their dark blood pooling on the concrete. At least twenty of them, maybe more."These look like fresh kills," Kade observed, studying the corpses. "They were taken down recently. Probably within the last five hours."Raiden knelt beside one of the corpses. It had clean cuts that were professionally done all over its body. "Whoever did this is quite strong and knew what they were doing.""Could be other survivors," Mira said. "Or maybe—"A low groan cut her off.Rough sounds of movement came in from the distance. Zombi
Ch.14 The Chase
The moment they stepped outside the training complex, the full extent of the devastation hit them.The campus looked like a war zone from the movies.Buildings that had stood proud yesterday were now crumbling ruins. Smoke rose from at least a dozen fires scattered across the grounds. The beautiful flower gardens were trampled and destroyed. Bodies lay everywhere — some torn apart, others still twitching as they slowly turned.The air smelled like death. Burnt flesh, rotting meat, and chemicals.Raiden tightened his grip on the Silvermoon Sword. "Stay close and move quietly. We should avoid fights unless we have no choice."Mira and Kade nodded. They'd instinctively taken him as the leader of their group.They moved along the eastern pathway, using buildings and landscaping as cover. The girls' dormitory was roughly two kilometers away, and that was normally a fifteen-minute walk. Today, it would take much longer.Every shadow could hide a zombie and every corner was a potential ambus
Ch.13 Mira's Request
By the time Kade finished explaining the basics of handling the weapons, everyone who wanted a gun was given one. A single magazine clip for each of them.Handguns were distributed first since they were easier to carry and use. Those who preferred melee weapons kept their swords and axes but took a handgun as backup.Bulletproof vests were also given to anyone who wanted one. The night vision goggles were divided among the group leaders.Raiden strapped a vest over his uniform and holstered a Glock and three magazine clips at his hip. The Silvermoon Sword remained his primary weapon, but having a gun made him feel marginally safer.The sun had fully set by the time they finished arming themselves. Darkness pressed against the windows, broken only by distant fires burning across the campus."We should rest," Mira said. "Everyone's exhausted. We've been running on adrenaline for hours."Raiden nodded. She was right. They needed sleep. Tomorrow would bring new challenges."Find rooms on
Ch.12 Hot Weapons
When the group reached the landing, Raiden immediately spotted the problem.The armory door stood at the end of the hall. It was a thick reinforced steel with a digital keypad lock mounted on the side. This was not a simple wooden door that they could kick in. It was serious security."Of course it's locked," Kade muttered. "Nothing can be easy."Raiden approached the door and examined it closely. The steel was at least three inches thick, designed to withstand both physical force and basic magic attacks. The keypad blinked with a steady red light."Any chance someone knows the code?" Raiden asked, glancing back at the survivors.They all shook their heads. No one knew what the passcode was."We could try to guess it," Jace offered, scratching his head."Four-digit code means ten thousand possible combinations," Mira said flatly. "We don't have that kind of time."Raiden ran his hand along the door's edge, feeling the heat-resistant coating. "I think we can burn through it."Mira step
Ch.11 Grinding
The others slowly got to their feet, exhaustion written on every face. Some of the survivors looked like they could barely walk, but they managed.Raiden turned to Mira and Kade. "We need to clear this building floor by floor and check every room. There might be survivors hiding inside, and there's definitely going to be more zombies."Mira nodded. "Makes sense. This place was packed with students and staff when everything went down. Not everyone made it outside.""And some who didn't make it... most likely turned," Kade added grimly.Jace adjusted his glasses nervously. "So we're going zombie hunting in a building that could have them around every corner. Great. Just great."Raiden looked at his friend and pulled him aside, away from the others. He kept his voice low."Jace, listen. I know this is terrifying. Trust me, I'm scared too." He paused, making sure Jace was listening. "But we need to use this opportunity."Jace blinked. "Opportunity? What are you talking about?""To level u
