RE:BORN Zombie

Victor wasting joking around or trying to see their cards. He needed to be out of the dungeon before the humans sent people to observe the dungeon, and the last thing he needed at the moment were two lizards wasting his time. On the contrary, he might have actually struck gold, as instead of the elite lizard men, he had found something that was potentially higher, which were the two old lizards. When he checked their level earlier, he confirmed that adding them to his legion was possible, as they were both level 85.

[Lizard Man Oracle Level 85]

[Lizard Man Oracle Level 85]

If he was right, then these oracles would be shamans, and that was something that would be welcomed in his team, seeing as he had mostly physical oriented monsters and only two that relied more on skill.

Victor didn’t waste much time with them in the end, as he had the perfect counter for enemies that could teleport around far distances. He wasn’t sure of the range of this skill, but all he needed to do was get close enough, and he achieved that using his teleportation.

Victor wasn’t sure if the lizard man oracles had used a spell on their self to make it possible for them to follow his movements, as they countered his earlier attack quite easily, or maybe it was an automatic defence system, so he went with the safest option. With his throwing strength, he picked up an sword and threw it as hard as he could towards the lizard men, but for some reason, they didn’t even think of dodging it despite the time they had to react. Perhaps, they were just that confident in their defence and knew it wouldn’t do anything, but that didn’t matter.

As the sword flew passed bodies of lizard men and destroyed ground, and passing through thick smoke caused by earlier explosions, Victor seemingly appeared out of thin air more than half way through, while the sword kept going, ‘this is good enough distance.’ He said in his mind as his body skated across the air.

With his mind, he activated his skill Death Curse, and he could immediately feel the mana leave his. Seeing that Victor was approaching them, the oracles used a magic that controlled the earth before Victor to grow into long and sturdy spikes just along his path, and then they vanished again, reappearing in another corner of the football field sized place.

Of course, Victor simply teleported again to the sword’s position, and easily avoided the trap, while the oracles in turn were not doing any better themselves. It was possible that they might have had an idea of what kind of curse was placed on them, seeing as they were something of shamans themselves, if not similar, Victor noticed them doing some weird motions with their hands, but it didn’t seem like it was working, as after four or six seconds, the first one fell, then the second followed.

Seeing the oracles fall, the remaining lizard men that had been watching from the side were plunged into fear, and that only worked in Victor’s favour, as they began dying one after the other. The result of this was a chain effect where the death of one would make another afraid, if they weren’t already, and that lizard man would also died, in turn instigating another. After all was done, Victor settled down on the corpse and began munching, but not before raising one of the lizard man oracles. _.

The first question he asked was whether both oracles were needed for their power to work, and the answer was no.

“That’s good and convenient. Now, your name will be Shanok. I could give you something better, but I just feel this one suits you better.” Victor said, as he ordered Shanok to gather him all the corpses. To his surprise, Shanok proved to be more useful than he thought. All Shanok needed to do was use his magic to do the gathering. Within a minute, he had piled up all the corpses near Victor, and Victor put him back inside as he had no use at the moment.

For whatever reason, the lizard men found it mandatory to loot their human enemies whenever they killed them, so Victor also acquired quite the amount of wealth from looting them in the end, bringing his total coins to 3,040 coins.

Victor didn’t take evolution material from all the corpses, as he didn’t think he would need that many. Once the evolution materials reached 500,000, he stopped and burned the remaining corpses with his fire breath before leaving the place.

While Victor was leaving, he picked up a small piece of rock and threw it towards the hole he came from, and as it got close he teleported to its position. The throw wasn’t perfect, so he was a bit off after teleporting, which meant he needed to act fast if not he would just fall back down. Luckily, he was close to the walls, so he brought out a sword from his inventory and stabbed it into the wall, then after manoeuvring his body to stand on the sword momentarily, he jumped towards the hole and managed to fix his hands into the bottom part of the hole before climbing into it.

Because he had to be focused in the fight, he wasn’t paying attention to the notifications and messages his system was popping out, so he made a note to check everything while he left. The first things that showed up were a bunch of notifications telling him that he had killed a lizard man and the amount of exp he received, and after going through at least a hundred of these messages, he found something that caught his eyes..

[You have levelled up]

These days levelling up wasn’t felt as much as before as his stats were already high. If he wanted to feel something, he would have to dump a bunch of stat points into one stat before he would feel the same rush of energy that he felt before when even a single point was added.

Also, maybe it was because he didn’t have a class, he enjoyed no special benefit from levelling up. Maybe it was because of how this world worked, as there were no classes or jobs, or any of that game stuff. People just possessed abilities, and depending on what the ability can do, they would know how to advance themselves. This wasn’t something Dustin was worried about though, as it didn’t affect him in the least. On the contrary, he didn’t dislike this no-class style at all. With no class, he had the leeway to advance himself anyhow he wanted. Being able to use a sword and possess skills that have nothing concerning warriors was a big plus in the end, so it all panned out well.

With these, Victor had benefitted from the lizard men in more ways than one, and he was satisfied with the results. He hadn’t wasted his time there for nothing. Since these were dungeon monsters, Victor was sure they would respawn, but when they did, who was going to explain the cause of so much destruction and scorched lizard man skeletons? He wondered. Not like it was important, it just gave the mind fruit to munch on.

‘Talking of fruits of the mind, why is my name still the same as before? It still reads Zombie#2314, like some code name.’ Victor thought to himself, while rubbing his smooth chin.

“Isn’t there a way to change it? Not that it bothers me since I’m the only one who can see this, but still, it would be nice to see my actual name instead of this.”

Just then, the system responded with an answer, an answer that would put a smile on Victor’s face if he was still a being with emotions.

[It is possible to update your name since you are no longer bound by the dungeon]

[Will you like to assign a new name now?]

“Yes.”

[Assign new name_ _ _]

“Victor.”

[Confirmed, name has been assigned]
