Chapter 236 – Zombie Apocalypse 3 (21)

Naeun, who entered the contaminated area, frowned slightly.

“Uh… It’s like that here. The incinerator. I think I felt this discomfort because I was close to the incinerator when the zombies were being burned. Sian, don’t you feel that way?”

“I feel it too. Didn’t you feel this way when you went near the department store?”

“Department store? I’ve never been that close to a department store, so I’m not sure. Isn’t that right? I think it was that way.”

“Now that I have internal energy, I will be able to react more sensitively.”

No matter how clear the limitations of female gong are, they still have the basics.

Naeun thinks that since his level she has risen considerably, a different perspective has opened up.

If I had known that you would learn it this well, I would have used my brain a little more and taught you good internal energy techniques.

“I guess inner strength is helpful in many ways?”

“It’s much better than nothing.”

As I walked and talked quietly with Naeun, I used my skills to find the direction we should go in this large area.

Presence detection – wave

As a ring of heat spread around me, I read countless beings in this polluted area.

First, it seems like there is no one alive.

I was able to find about three clumps of zombies acting together in a group nearby, and I was able to find scattered zombies inside the building.

He probably wasn’t directly infected by the zombies, but since this area is full of contaminated mana, he was hiding at home and became a zombie due to the influence of the contaminated mana.

Looking at this, it can be said that it has characteristics more suited to a plague than a zombie.

But isn’t the plague usually spread through contact? What. The Lord of Plague named it Plague, but it is a type of black magic.

First, I couldn’t find any special zombies, so would it be better to deal with the zombie horde first?

I thought I should first find a zombie and see how strong it is.

“Naeun, come here.”

“I understand.”

I went into a small alley rather than a wide road, and there was a zombie that I had just found through presence detection.

“Be careful and take it down.”

Naeun held the spear with both hands and slowly walked towards the zombie.

As she approached so quietly that no footsteps could be heard, the zombie suddenly turned her face.

“Ugh. What is it?”

Naeun, who has killed many zombies and broken their heads, couldn’t help but be surprised to see her zombie’s face.

She didn’t have the zombie eyeballs that should turn red at the sight of a human.

Where her eyeballs should have been been hollowed out, and there was a mark on her face that looked as if her eyes had melted and a black, sticky liquid had leaked.

“Huh, Ahhhhh !!!”

The eyeless zombie screamed very loudly.

Unlike regular zombies screaming when they see people, I thought this was just a sound to attract all the zombies around.

“It’s noisy!”

Naeun thrust her spear into the empty eye of the screaming zombie and twisted it.

Purge!

When she retrieved her spear, she collapsed like a torn apart zombie with her brain torn apart.

“Na-eun, would you like to prick her skin?”

“Skin? Ugh… It’s tough.”

Naeun stabbed her zombie’s stomach with her spear, but she wasn’t easily hurt.

Her overall durability has become stronger, but her empty eyes are the weak point of zombies, and she has even confirmed her durability, so she quickly decides to avoid her place.

“Zombies are coming. Let’s go quickly.”

“I understand.”

I ran with Naeun and got out of her alley.

Then she went to a nearby building and hid her body, but a ton of eyeless zombies were coming towards the alley where we were.

Should we say more than just the three nearby groups? In exchange for losing her eyes, her hearing seemed to have developed tremendously.

“I shouldn’t make a loud noise.”

I whispered very softly to Naeun, and the zombie that was close to us turned around and slowly approached.

Naeun poked me with her finger, but she had nothing to say.

First, I’ll have to force her to shut up.

She created a magic circle of silence and engraved it on Naeun and me.

When I opened her mouth wide, Naeun opened her eyes and looked at me, but her voice did not come out.

When she pointed to her neck and crossed her two fingers to make an X, Naeun also opened her mouth to make a sound.

Naeun looked at her again with her widened eyes, and in order to overcome the current situation, she picked up a small stone nearby and threw it hard on the floor.

Crackling.

The sound wasn’t that loud because it wasn’t big enough, but the zombies that were walking towards us and around the stone were screaming and rushing to the ground like crazy.

“Kua ah ah ah !!!”

While listening to that loud noise, I quietly went up to the top of the building.

The street seen from above was suddenly filled with eyeless zombies.

There were too many zombies, but there were too many. By the time I left the alley, I had already surpassed 100, so wouldn’t it be closer to 1,000 now?

I thought it made no sense that when one zombie screamed, so many zombies would come in droves.

Naeun also shook his head after seeing so many zombies that he had no motivation.

‘Can I defeat all those zombies?’

In some ways, this is like the outskirts of a polluted area.

But if they come together like this, wouldn’t the center be empty?

Just when I thought it would be a good idea to go around the outskirts and lure zombies like this, I heard a high-pitched voice from somewhere.

“Ahhhhh.”

It wasn’t the voice I heard in my head, but it sounded like it was speaking right next to me.

Could it be that it is delivered to the entire contaminated area through contaminated mana?

However, when they heard that voice, the zombies that had flocked like crazy began to slowly return to their places.

The guy who makes this voice is the ruler of this area.

And without a doubt, it’s the second evolution zombie.

After confirming that all the surrounding zombies had disappeared, I broke the magic circle of silence that had been placed on me and Naeun.

“Naeun.”

“Ah. Yes. A voice comes out.”

When I spoke very quietly, Naeun spoke in a quieter voice.

“It seems really dangerous here.”

“Yes…”

Naeun said in a downcast voice.

“So, you must always stick by my side.”

“Huh? I thought you were going to tell me to go back.”

“I need you.”

“Yes, I understand.”

EX of survival rules because I have become strong enough. 1 I think I have enough power to defeat the 2nd evolution zombies even without the savior effect, but I thought I needed to prepare just in case.

Even if the second evolved zombies were defeated, it seemed unlikely that the contaminated area would be immediately purified.

So what if you have to fight against the crowds of zombies, and you run out of strength, and you can’t use the wheel? At that time, you have to endure with your mental strength.

Savior is the most suitable skill for that, but Naeun, whom I must protect, must be by my side.

‘It is a skill activated to bring Na-eun to a dangerous place and protect her from danger.’

Thinking that the activation conditions were strange, I slowly went down with Naeun.

To take advantage of the fact that zombies have bad eyesight and are extremely sensitive to sound, you’ll have to carry something around and throw something.

‘It reminds me of the beepyak I used to attract zombies at the supermarket.’

Wouldn’t there be an uproar if I threw that one here? First, I moved slowly while picking up objects that could make noise.

The zombies that returned to the place where I first used the presence detection-wave were standing blankly.

We walked slowly, making no sound as much as possible, but we were so sensitive to sound that when we passed nearby, a zombie turned its head and looked straight at us with empty eyes.

Naeun took out a rock from her gym bag and threw it at a window a little further away.

Clink!

“Ahhhhh!!!”

As soon as the sound of the window breaking was heard, an eyeless zombie started screaming and running towards the window.

We moved in the opposite direction of the attack.

When I heard the zombies screaming again and saw the hordes of zombies that had gathered in an instant, I had the desire to set them on fire.

I have Naeun next to me right now who will accept me no matter what I do, so should I give it a try?

I used Shadow Craft to grab a spear made of shadows and prepare myself for a javelin.

What I need this time is not penetration.

Sets fire over a wide area.

Flame field. Flame wheel.

A ring of spreading flame appeared, and I threw the spear through the ring.

Hwaaaaa!

When the window filled with heat hit the ground, the heat spread out like a wave spreading out.

The zombie in the center caught fire, and the sound of burning flesh began to smell.

The sound of zombies burning meant more zombies began to gather.

‘If we continue like this, won’t we be able to get a complete blow?’

As I was thinking about that and waiting for the zombie to burn to death, I heard a high-pitched sound again.

“Ahh… Ah.”

The zombies began to widen their distance, perhaps because the order was different from the order that had sent them back to their original places.

How do you figure out what’s going on? The harvest wasn’t that big, but I used up quite a bit of mana.

“Aaaaah…”

At the sound of the voice being heard again, the zombies began to spread further.

Presence detection – wave

I used presence detection-waves to check the surroundings, and the zombies began to move as if they were going to completely take over not only the zombies in front of me but also the contaminated area.

Thinking that the quantity war did not suit me, I moved my gaze in the direction of the zombies that were different from the regular zombies caught at the edge of the presence detection.

‘I found it, but how do I get there?’

Should I move up the building while stepping on the wave wheel?

If you move that close, wouldn’t the zombie making noises gather more zombies around it?

I calculated various situations in my head, but came to one conclusion.

Let’s assassinate the 2nd evolution zombies and organize the rest.
