Level up Zombie

Chapter 176 Deja Vu



"Nit… you know he can\'t survive in there, right? He would need some type of miracle to be able to." One of the members said.

"Hey, who was the one that got us this far in the first place?" Nit replied. "Dali is a strong person, I have no doubt that he will be able to get out of there. Which is why we will be waiting for him. It\'s not him that I\'m worried about, it\'s whether his little brother will make it out or not."

After slaying the two Titans, Zain soon had come across an escalator that went deeper into the ground. It wasn\'t working and there was a large staircase nearby. The weird thing though was that Zain didn\'t need his glow stick to see in this area and that was because of the zombies.

There were several zombies on the staircase as well as on the escalator, just standing there patient, as if on guard, and all of them had large orange-like boils. Zain didn\'t notice it before, but now that they were in the dark, they seemed to light up.

\'The way they are positioned here. It\'s almost like it is intentional. This reminds me of entering a dungeon, like in those games.\' Zain thought, as he pulled out both of the machetes from his back.

Heading down the regular staircase, Zain quickly went towards one, slicing its head off with a single swing. He then turned around and stabbed another through the head. Those that were on the escalator were attempting to climb over it to get to where Zain was, but he had reached them, swinging the machetes and slicing their heads off too.

As a head was sliced off, it would bounce on the floor each time and then when it reached the bottom it would start to roll. With his strength and swordsmanship, one strike was all Zain needed to deal with them all.

\'If the Spitter manages to hit me with its goo for some reason, then all the zombies in the area will be after me. So it\'s best to get rid of the ones I can with no penalty, just in case.\' Zain thought.

Due to being down in the subway and the smells being amplified by whatever dead creatures were down here, Zain was unaware of the human that had been on his trail and was currently watching everything

From around the corner of one of the hallways, Dali peeked as he heard sounds, and could witness the redhead taking out everything that came towards him. Since it was dark, it should have been easy to follow the person\'s movements.

After all, the glow stick revealed his position, but it was moving too fast and a glowing blood could be seen spilling everywhere.

\'How… How, who is this person? Is he one of the zombie hunters I\'ve heard about? But he isn\'t dressed like them and I heard that they travel in groups. Either way, I haven\'t been able to find my brother and with him clearing the way, he can help me.\'

There was a chance that his brother wasn\'t on this platform or had ventured too deep, but going any other way, there was a large risk associated with it.

Eventually, Zain had managed to clear the area as he swung his sword through the last of the boil zombies and he could see and set foot on the platform. To his left and right, there were railway tracks for the trains, but no train in sight at the platform.

What he was more concerned about was the Spitter that was directly in front of him.

"There you are!"

The Spitter\'s body lit up as it was ready to fire out a strange goo. Zain ran toward it, and as the spit left its mouth, he jumped to the side, avoiding the hit completely. Putting one of the machetes away, Zain threw two daggers that were on the side of his belt.

The Spitter lifted its arms blocking them, and when it put them down, Zain was right there in front of the Spitter. He grabbed it right from its neck, and as he squeezed tight using all his strength, it looked like it was struggling to open its mouth properly.

"You guys are easier to deal with compared to the Titans." Zain stated, as he lifted up the machete and stabbed it forward at the same time letting go of its neck. It opened its mouth wide, allowing for the machete to go through with ease, killing it on the spot.

Letting the stage two zombie go, it fell to the floor.

\'Looks like I was right, it wants me to clear this area of all the evolved zombies. For 13 of them to be in this area. It should be a nice reward and a nice boost in exp as well. I wonder if there will be a chance for me to evolve again… I look nothing like these guys.\' Zain thought.

"Look out!" A voice shouted from behind.

Turning his head, he could see a human by the staircase, but what was more frightening was that there was another Spitter with its mouth open already, having shot out its liquid.

Zain was quick to react, as he rolled on the ground and avoided the spit.

"Ahhh!" Another voice screamed, it was a little high pitched, and when Zain turned his head again. A boy, who looked to be around ten years old, was completely covered in the strange substance.

"WIZZ!" Dali shouted, as he ran up to him sliding on his knees and grabbing his brother\'s face. "We have to get this off you, we have to get it off you quickly!"

Dali was rubbing the strange slime substance off his brother and throwing it onto the floor.

"Crap… this whole subway is going to be filled!" Zain shouted.

It was worse than that though, heavy footsteps could be heard, and it felt like more Titans were coming their way. The screams of zombies from all directions were being heard.

"Stranger!" Dali shouted. "I don\'t care who you are, but take my brother, and get out of here, I\'ll use my body to stop them."

Zain looked at the two, the kid covered in the strange substance and the older brother crying non stop. The scene right now, the feelings of the brother, how helpless he felt… It reminded Zain a lot about what had happened with Skittle.

At the time, he would have done anything to help him out, but it was impossible… But was it impossible now?

Zain stood in front of the two, who were next to one of the pillars.

"Stay in front of me, and make sure nothing grabs you from the sides. Even if you gave them your body… it would only last a few seconds and your brother would die anyway."

Zain then placed his free hand on the floor.

\'Now is a good time to use one of the new skills I got. Summon!\'
