Level up Zombie - Chapter 287: The power of blood

Both of the women were Zombie Hunters and this fact was known by a few of them and had spread to the others.

The stares from the other zombies said it all, in the first place they weren’t pleased that humans were here but the fact that they were Zombie Hunters made it that much worse.

‘Ah with the way everyone is looking at us, I seriously wonder how long we’ll survive in this place before someone comes and attacks us.’ Wendy thought. ‘Although it’s only fair. Some of the zombies we killed might have been their friends or family members… we didn’t even know there were this many zombies that are conscious.

‘Maybe, there’s not a way to completely categorise them, but if all of the zombies could live like this would that be enough?’.

While Wendy was in the middle of her thoughts, Anna decided to be the one to step forward.

“I’ll go first.” Anna said, she stood forward with weapons on her body and a spear attached to her back. She pulled it out and held it in her hands.

Rather than using her own powers, she had decided to take Zain’s advice, especially since it seemed like Carl was going easy on them.

Pulling out the spear, she pointed toward Carl.

“I want to make it clear to everyone here, I hate the Zombie Hunters as much as you guys!” Anna declared. “You guys know nothing about me, but you can ask Dart, I was their captive when they found him, so I am not on their side.”

Carl looked into the crowd once more and this time rather than taking a weapon, one of the members from the crowd had thrown At that moment, Wendy thought one thing, it was a shame that she was unable to say something similar.

Carl looked into the crowd once more and this time rather than taking a weapon, one of the members from the crowd had thrown him a spear.

Calmly he grabbed it and stood in a similar stance as Anna.

‘Is he trying to prove that he’s better than everyone with every weapon?’ Zain thought. ‘Still, I guess it is possible for me to do the same thing as well due to the system. If I had enough practice it allows me to master anything, but for a person to be capable of all of this without a system, they would have to be some kind of monster.’

There was another thought in the back of Zain’s head, the system had been given to him by chance, but what if someone like Carl had the system, what if someone like Carl was meant to have the system.

Could they have done a lot more to stop all of this?

The fight had started and similar to the last one, Anna was the first to charge in; she had done so slowly and then sped up when getting close, coming to a sudden halt as she thrust her spear forward.

Leaning to the side, Carl avoided the attack and with a single hand lifted up his own spear whacking her spear away.

Anna could feel the impact of the attack, her forearms already felt numb and it was just one.

Holding on tight though, she pulled the spear back down and spun side of his head in time.

“That was quite good… but a spear is meant to keep distance. If her body aiming to hit Carl on the side.

It was a smooth movement and the spear had successfully hit as a bang was heard, but It had hit Carl’s forearm. He had raised it to the side of his head in time.

“That was quite good… but a spear is meant to keep distance. If your opponent is stronger than you and you get close…”

With his arm he quickly grabbed the spear, and then pulled on it. Anna could feel her whole body weight fall forward and if she didn’t let go her face would be right in the mud.

Ultimately, she had no choice but to let go of the spear and now it was in the hands of Carl and she had no weapon at all.

“You see, now you have nothing?” Carl said with a smile. It was the first smile they had seen from him but it seemed like he quite enjoyed being a teacher.

With this and the last fight, he was teaching them both.

“Now try and avoid this.” Carl said, as he held the spear like a javelin and threw it over his shoulder.

It was going at a fast speed but not too fast that Anna wasn’t able to dodge, weight was put on her foot, but that’s when Carl went ahead and threw the other spear with more strength and slightly faster.

Now the two of them were moving at the same speed.

“I won’t be able to dodge in time!” She thought.

That’s when Carl noticed something on the spear he had taken from Anna, as well as on his own hand… there was blood.

Looking up, a clang was heard as the spear clashed against a dark red shield. Anna was pushed back a few steps but she had blocked the attack.

‘It was a good thing, to prepare those cuts beforehand. From the beginning of the fight I had cut my hand so I could create a weapon if I needed it in a desperate situation and it worked out.’

Anna had created a blood shield just in time to block the spear, and Carl didn’t throw the spear lightly; he was quite surprised by the strength of the shield.

‘I don’t understand what he’s doing.’ Zain thought. ‘I thought he was trying to teach her, but with the strength of that spear it would have gone right through her. There is no way he would have known about her ability.’

“That’s a strong shield.” Carl said and now with no weapons in his hand, his hand started to transform and was covered in the black casing.

Running forward he reached Anna before she could even react and threw it right into the shield. She braced herself but strangely she felt almost no impact herself.

When looking in front of her though she could see her blood shield crumbling into nothing, it was the first time one of her blood weapons had broken like that.

“It looks like my arm is a little stronger.” Carl smiled. “This match is over, bring on the next one.”

After seeing such a display of power, Wendy was nervous.
