Level up Zombie - Chapter 306: A Interrupter
The large-scale battle was raging on but the Dark Zombies were careful about a number of things. For one, they wouldn’t push too far or deep into the enemy territory. Instead they stayed huddled up in formations where they could protect each other.
There were far too many Zombie Hunters in a small place for them all to be effective in the first place. Which was part of another reason why they didn’t push. Killing the Zombie Hunters would put them in a more difficult position.
While already injured they would suffer from a new wave of powers, and at the same time, the goal was to hold their position while losing as little as possible.
One of the zombies had a unique trait, where he could stretch out his arms. The muscle fibers would break down, allowing him to grab onto his opponent from far away, or with a swing he could elongate his arm and hit several people.
Swinging his arm he had done just that. It extended out and the flesh between his joints, the muscle fibers were on view. As it was about to crash into the group of Zombie Hunters, one stood forward with a hand by their side stopping it in its tracks.
“He stopped my attack, I guess he’s some type of strength power.”
It was a relatively common superhuman ability, but the power also ranged widely between users, so the zombie had nothing to fear, that was until he could feel a pinch of pressure in the side of his arm.
As a zombie, one didn’t feel pain, but they could still feel the pressure of things. It was similar to when one would go to the dentist. The anaesthetic they would use would numb the pain but the feeling of the dentist yanking on your tooth was still felt.
This was why the zombie knew something was up.
‘The energy from my body, why am I feeling so… weak.’
The zombie tried to pull its arm away, but the hands of the hunter held on tight, and with his strength getting weaker the chances of him escaping were lessening. Before he knew it, his body was shrivelling up, the body mass was disappearing on the spot and he was turning into something that looked like a dry raisin.
“Holy crap, good job Diego!”
“What power is that, I’ve never seen anything like that.” Another hunter commented.
“Yeah, I thought Diego had some strange clicking power, I don’t remember him having anything like that.”
The hunters didn’t have much time to think about what was going on around them, because all of them were fighting for their lives. What they didn’t notice was that the strange absorption of the zombies was occurring in more areas than one.
The Chained Zombie and Buke were evenly matched as they continued to attack each other. Buke had even suffered a couple of direct blows, and he had even overpowered the Chained Zombie, lifting it by its chains and slamming it into the ground.
Its body was relatively mushy compared to regular zombies though, making it a lot harder to kill even with direct hits. If a bullet were to hit its head, it would even be able to allow it to pass through without going through its brain. It was that flexible.
Meanwhile, Humfree with his keen eye of observation was noticing the dried up bodies on the battlefield.
‘It’s them… they’ve arrived.’
“At the back, more are coming in from behind!” one of the Dark Zombies shouted.
With a glance behind, they looked at the situation, and could see that a group of those dressed in the Zombie Hunter uniform were coming toward them. They weren’t large in number, maybe around an extra thirty or so.
“Oh… that’s surprising to see, it looks like fate is on our side, and someone wants us to win.” Buke smiled.
The reason for him smiling was because of the members he could see. They were Zombie Hunters who had been sent out a while ago, and had yet to return. He hadn’t seen them and naturally presumed that they were dead.
Inside the large white mansion, at the top floor where Buke had jumped off the balcony. Sarah was able to witness just over the edge everything that was happening, she could see Reborn zombies going to war with the Zombie Hunters.
‘Is it Humfree, did he come for me, or just come to stop what could happen.’ Sarah thought, biting onto her bottom lip.
She was going through all the decisions and mistakes she had made, wondering if she did something different, maybe the outcome would have changed, but it resulted into this.
‘I guess I really was an idiot, thinking that we could solve this issue with no fighting. It wasn’t as if I didn’t believe in any conflict at all, just that I thought there was a better way.’
There were around four people in the room, looking over Sarah. The man with the hair covering his eyes, who could read minds was one of them, stood up standing by the bathroom door.
“Ah man!” One of the hunters said. “All this tension of this fight going on, it makes me need to piss.”
The man started to walk into the toilet, and shortly after one of the other hunters went to follow him in.
“Wait, Jer is in there?” The hunter said.
But the man ignored him as he followed him into the bathroom. The hunter just shrugged his shoulders, it wasn’t his problem to deal with. After a few moments, the second hunter that went in, a man with a white stripe in his har had come out, even though he had gone in after the other., n0.0
He then placed both of his hands on the mind reader’s shoulders.
“You are a big problem that needs getting rid off.”
The man started to shrivel up on the spot, his muscles shrinking until he eventually fell onto the ground.
“What the f*ck, did you just kill him!” the hunter said.
“And you’re the last one.” Out from the striped hair hunter, a tentacle sprouted out from his back and went right through the man’s chest, killing him on the spot.
All the hunters in the room were dead, apart from one, although hunter wasn’t the right word to use for them.
“We had a deal Sarah, but now it looks like that deal will have to be called off.”
