Chapter 99 – Zombie Apocalypse 2 (7)

Lee Sian’s body was more interesting than expected.

It’s a little strange to say that something is fun in a human body, but I wondered if I would have felt this way if I had become a quest expert and progressed quickly.

It’s been 8 days since I woke up to the status window, and 7 days since the zombie apocalypse broke out, I can’t believe I got a clue like this.

In the case of Lee Sian, however, he experienced quite a lot of time in the meantime through Yoo Sian and other possessed bodies, so the date cannot be calculated so precisely, but his body was optimized to fuse many things.

In a world without mana, you can lay the foundation from scratch with the ability to manipulate negative mana and the ability to manipulate heat.

‘Master Yeomwang said. When I reach 8 stars, I can play around with it as I want.’

I don’t think I said it that much, but now I can handle both yin and yang.

So wouldn’t it be okay to go a little faster? It’s not about adapting the smoke technique to my taste, but creating a completely new skill.

This body, which has now begun to awaken mana, will be able to do so.

“Sian, let’s go quickly.”

After entering the mart, I was massaging Naeun’s arm and thinking about various things, when Naeun nudged me and said.

Only then did I get out of my own thoughts and look around, and I felt that other people were watching us being affectionate in broad daylight.

For me, I massaged Naeun’s injured arm in the hopes that it would heal quickly, but people who don’t know what the bandages look like under her clothes may have a hard time thinking that.

You won’t see anything more than her boyfriend massaging her arm.

“Yeah, it would be nice if you had a weapon too.”

My body isn’t normal yet, but it’s much better than nothing.

“If I get a spear, will I be able to use it well?”

Most of the weapons made in supermarkets these days are spears.

It has a long range and does not require much skill when dealing with zombies, so it is the most efficient weapon to use right now.

There is absolutely no need to use weapons like baseball bats like me.

Still, I gave you this, what should I do?

I got up with a baseball bat and an empty bag on my shoulder and went to the entrance of the supermarket on time with Naeun.

At the entrance of the mart, the men who came out first were talking to the women guarding the entrance, and when they saw me, they bowed their heads.

“Is there a patrol team of six people?”

“Yes. First, my goal is to patrol, so I don’t go out that much.”

The spearman who appeared to be the leader answered my question.

“How many zombies do you encounter in one patrol?”

“We usually meet about five to six people. It’s rare that we don’t meet at all.”

“I understand. And if you have any spare spears, can Naeun take them? We both lost our weapons in the last fight. Luckily, I got the extra spears, but Naeun is empty-handed.”

“Of course. And it would be a good idea to equip yourself with protective gear as well.”

When I came from the officetel to the supermarket, I threw away the cardboard box protector that I had originally used.

I scratched it on the asphalt floor, and it was completely tattered, so I couldn’t use it again.

The supermarket patrol team gave me soft arm and leg protectors, probably using blankets.

The best would be metal, but this doesn’t look bad either.

As Naeun and I put on protective gear and Naeun lifted to the window, the entrance to the mart opened.

“Let’s go. The leader told us to turn around quickly, so let’s go quickly.”

“Yes. I also don’t think it’s a good idea to stay outside for too long.”

The area around the supermarket was a familiar place to me.

There are many times when I went to college or the gym, stopped by the supermarket, and then came home.

And I looked around the area quite a bit while taking a walk with Naeun on a date.

“Basically, our patrol range starts from the out-of-sight areas of the supermarket.”

“I looked at the map earlier, but it’s more clear than I thought.”

“How does an average person fight and defeat an evolved zombie? It’s best to prevent it in advance.”

At the same time, there was respect in the eyes looking at me.

I didn’t win that fight overwhelmingly, so what on earth do you think?

My right arm is still sore… ?

I felt uncomfortable, so I touched the bruised part of my right arm with my left hand. Are you saying you’re all better?

‘Is it because I accepted the mana and tried to keep using it?’

The heat flows from my lower abdomen through my arms, so of course it will affect my right arm as well.

A small lump of mana can have such an effect on the body.

Now that I think about it, Naeun didn’t make any pain noises when she came into the supermarket and massaged her arms.

When I check later, I think the bruising will have reduced a lot.

While I was walking along the patrol route with that in mind, I was able to detect a presence.

“Wait a minute. I think there’s something.”

As I spoke, the patrol members adjusted their spears and looked around.

“Where is it?”

“It’s on the side of the building over there.”

Even if I say that, other people won’t notice.

I walked to the building first, holding the baseball bat tightly with both hands.

It feels like it’s been a really long time since I held a baseball bat like this.

A zombie seemed to have noticed me slowly approaching and came running out from inside the building with its arms raised high.

“Crrrr!”

When I first became possessed by Isian, I had no real combat experience at all, so he was a zombie that helped me gain good experience.

Whoa, whoa!

That zombie’s head was instantly blown off by my baseball bat, which I swung with all my might.

Even if you only use the recovered physical strength without using mana, you can achieve this level of power.

He lightly swung the baseball bat to shake off the blood, then turned around and said.

“I feel like there’s nothing more, so let’s keep going.”

“Ah… Yes. But how did you know? It looks like it was completely inside the building.”

“I could see very little. I was lucky.”

I can’t say that I used the presence detection skill, so I’ll have to reduce the range a little or pretend not to know until I find the traces properly.

“But were you really that strong? You killed me with one blow.”

“Is it because I worked out hard with Na-eun?”

“No, I usually can’t do that much.”

I tried to secretly ignore it because of exercise, but Naeun denied that part.

Because the guy who worked out with me knows that you have to hit him three or four times to kill a zombie.

Once we passed, we continued patrolling.

There were no zombies visible on the main street, and a few more could be found in narrow alleys.

“Yay!”

Puuk

Naeun aimed the spear at the zombie’s head to practice, and the sharp blade of the spear stuck in the zombie’s head.

However, when the zombie was struggling and waved her hand, Naeun slightly moved her buttocks behind her as if she was surprised.

“You have to twist it after stabbing it to completely stop the zombie. Stabbing it with a sharp spear didn’t stop it right away.”

“Ah. Yes.”

Naeun looked a little tired at the patrol leader’s words and spun her spear in her hand.

There was a crackling sound of the head grinding and the zombie fell limp.

“Whew. Spear isn’t that easy either.”

After removing her spear from the zombie’s head, Naeun returned to the search team.

“Still, it’s easy to handle. And it’s the safest weapon for ordinary people.”

Then he looked at me, and of course I prefer safe weapons.

While catching a few more zombies, I took a long walk around her mart and returned to the mart entrance.

The leader kept counting the number of zombies using his smartphone, and at first glance, it seemed like he had killed 8.

“This is how the patrol ends. Even if we go a little faster than usual, it will still take 30 minutes.”

“If you relax, you will suffer. Thank you for your hard work.”

The patrol member who finished the patrol looked a little tired.

I walked around the supermarket at a fast pace that was enough to tire me out, and since I didn’t know when or where zombies would come out, I patrolled with concentration, so I was probably more tired than tired.

The entrance to the mart opened, and we returned inside the mart.

The patrol leader went straight to the customer support office first, and we returned our protective gear and equipment and returned to the supermarket.

“It’s better than I thought?”

Naeun spoke to me first.

“Yes. As long as no other variables arise, we won’t see any evolution zombies around here. Moreover, since there seem to be a lot of empty houses, I think we can make life at the supermarket a little more comfortable. That seems a bit clever.”

Everyone had blankets and blankets, but there was no bed.

When Naeun’s arm is fully healed, I feel like doing some dirty things, but isn’t that the case in a place like a supermarket?

Because I have no intention of showing Naeun’s pleasure-filled appearance to others.

I sat down again and thought a little more deeply about how to use mana while massaging Naeun’s right arm.

‘Whether it is heat energy or negative attribute mana, mana is used when using it as a skill.’

Ultimately, what is needed when activating a skill to demonstrate power that transcends humans is mana.

Flame Magic is ultimately a skill that colors mana and is used to quickly collect mana of that color.

Shadow Mastery is also a skill that uses the mana in the body to interfere with the shadow and give it physical power.

In the end, since it is the same mana, it can be used by changing any attribute.

‘As Yu Xian, was your understanding of the Yeonyeom Divine Technique a little lacking?’

I confirmed that it could be linked with Shadow Craft and re-possessed Isian. If I perfectly mastered the Yeomyeom Magic, I would be able to progress more quickly.

However, I have not mastered the Yanyeonshengong perfectly.

Combining two imperfect technologies and settling them into an unfinished body is not something that can be done easily.

And then a quest appeared.

『Quest』

〈 Organize your enlightenment and create skills. 〉

-Upon completion: [Skill]?

This is not Lee Sian’s quest, but Yoo Sian’s quest.

After all, if you come to this class, growth is strangely fast?
