Level up Zombie

While playing with the new skill he had just received, Zain decided that he would assign all of the regular zombies he had in his possession or part of his horde to the subway station. It wasn't enough to increase the limit to its maximum capacity, but he could always find more regular zombies to turn.

Since he had received the skill to turn regular zombies and not just humans, it was always easy for him to just get more if need be. With the summon skill, Zain had been using them a lot more to distract the enemy if there was more than one stage 2 enemy zombie.

'The question is what to do next?' Zain thought. 'I'm still not at the level where I could defeat those Chained Zombies if I were to come across them as well. Although, I believe if I brought them to my territory like this, there could be a chance.

'I guess the best course of action, for now, is to gain more territories and gain larger amounts of exp to level up. First, I will max out the number of Zombies that can be assigned to protect this place.'

After looking around the place, Zain found out there wasn't a single regular zombie that looked to be alive, which meant he would need to venture outside.

When walking up the stairs to exit the subway, Zain could sense two things. One was the smell that was coming from the top, it was humans and the other was the noise that they were making.

"I can't believe you made it out there, man. Is there nothing that our Dali can't do?!"

"Hey, maybe they were just rumours about the subway. It probably isn't as bad as we thought?"

"Guys, I keep telling you that wasn't it. The subway stations are full of zombies. Trust me, it is a place that no one should go if they want to live." Dali explained, "I survived all because of the guy that went in before me."

"You mean the guy that's standing right behind you?" Nit said, pointing at someone behind him.

Turning around, Dali almost jumped as he saw the red-haired student while also letting out a little yeep, but quickly he bowed his head down and forced his brother to do so with a hand on top of his head.

"Again, thank you for saving mine and my brother's life…thank you so much," he tried to show his gratitude.

From the way Dali was acting, it seemed his words were true. He had told the others that this man was someone powerful who struck down all of the zombies below with no fear. It sounded barbaric. Of course, Dali had left out the craziest thing he had seen, and that was the control the red-haired young man had over the zombies.

The last thing that Dali wanted to do was make an enemy out of his saviour. These types of people would usually want to keep such things a secret, and blabbing his mouth was an easy way for him to get killed.

However, when the others saw who had come out, they found it hard to believe. This was a student that was perhaps a couple of years older than them. How could one person take on so many zombies?

While the others were giving unsure looks, Nit was looking at the blood on his clothes and those on the machetes that were on his back. Whether or not he was the one that cleared the subway, he was certainly killing something down there.

"Hey, stranger, my friend and I that you saved over there run this group. We have survived quite a while due to our fighting skills, and it seems that you are quite skilful yourself, so why don't you join us?" Nit proposed an invitation.

The other members were shocked by this.

"Hey Nit, you can't just go inviting strangers. We're a fighting gang who look out for each other. We cover each other's backs. The only thing this guy is going to do is slow us down!" The one arguing back was named Bob. He had quite the large afro-top hair on his head, and when he disagreed with something, it would shake quite widely like It was doing so now.

"You guys might be the leader of the gang, but if it involves our lives, then we have a choice as well."

While the others were arguing amongst themselves, Zain turned around and went to walk in the other direction. He was going to head into a couple of apartments to turn a few zombies.

"Wait!" Dali shouted out. "Please ignore what my friends said. They're just being cautious and careful. I…also would like it if you could join us. "

Zain waved his hand off without even turning around.

"Trust me. You don't want to be around me. I'm not good to be around unless you all want to end up dead, and besides. I'm not a good person anyway."

Zain continued to walk and was ready to head into one of the apartments when he heard the little voice instead.

"You are a good person, mister!" Wiz shouted. "Because you saved me…a bad person wouldn't have saved me.

Walking into the apartment, Zain still didn't look back, but for some reason, out of all the words, these were the ones that made him happiest as a smile broke through on his face.

"Bob!" Dali said, clenching his fist. "I wasn't lying, that person was strong, and there is a good chance that with him, our lives could have changed. I know you mean well but next time, think of the glass being half full."

Bob stayed quiet as he knew he was getting told off by their dear leader. However, the other members, apart from Nit, agreed with him as well and were just thankful it would be them again.

"So where should we head, boss? Should we continue following the arrows of those paintings?" Nit asked.

"The ones that said, Reborn group?" Dali replied.

Just as Zain had reached the second floor of the stairs, his system had pinged him.
