Looking at the menu Ryan smiled. That skill book made him 2-times stronger than a normal human, he had decent stats as well. Also the Steel Body Skill made his skin tough enough to block small caliber bullets and all pre-apocalypse melee weapons save for the masterwork ones, he then put the Grade 1 Protective Vest over his combat armour and felt that he got a +1 in all stats.
''Should we go zombie hunting?'' He asked everyone, which made David and Mike freeze and reveal looks of horror.
''Why would you want to?'' replied the shaking Mike he muttered ''*sigh* is this the end of humanity?''
''Probably.'' muttered the equally afraid David.
''Uhh where's Ross?'' I asked. I swore he was here a few minutes ago...
''OVER HERE! HELP!'' I hear a shout and my head turns 30 odd degrees to look down the road seeing Ross chased by 10 zombies, Which were way slower than him and he had his gun but he still was running and he only stopped when he his behind me. What a waste of a skill book...
We all don't stand on ceremony and open fire ripping 3 them to shreds instantly, it took around 5 seconds of full on shooting to finish them all off.
''Why were you over there Ross and why didn't you shoot back?'' I almost hissed at him. Like why would't you shoot back when chased by those creepy bastards?
''I was too scared to shoot back...'' he replied cowardly and he added shaken ''I wanted to look for one zombie to kill and get something good from a box...''
I was speechless so I didn't reply and went to check the bodies for boxes. There were 7 six whites and two greens, I opened them to find 3 energy drinks that refilled stamina, Level 2 Skill Flash Steps, Level 3 Enhanced Bullet, Grade 1 Katana and a Grade 1 Combat knife from the white boxes and Level 3 Skill Air Manipulation and Agility Solidification from the green boxes.
Level 2 Skill Flash Steps: Increases Agility by 20 for 10 seconds for 5 stamina.
Level 3 Air Manipulation: Gives ability to control air, how much damage is done decided by how much stamina you use.
Level 3 Enhanced Bullet: Makes a single shot of a gun more powerful.
Agility Solidification: Gives a increase of 10 Agility permanently.
Ross got the combat knife and an energy drink, Mike got an energy drink and flash steps, David got Enhanced Bullets and an energy drink and I got Air Manipulation, Agility Solidification and the Katana.
10 Undistributed attribute points. (2 attribute points per level)
10 into stamina I thought.
Level: 6
Strength: 20
Agility: 20
Vitality: 10
Stamina: 20
Spirit: 10
Endurance: 10
A howl tears my eyes away from the screen and my head turns to see a zombie which starts stumbling down the road and snail speed so I have plenty of time to run up to it and slash at it's head with my katana, with my 2-times strength and speed the zombie is decapitated before it could retaliate. I also test my speed to see what 2-times speed really is, while running I realise that even the fastest man in the world would be slightly inferior. The average person runs somewhere near 15 miles per hour, with me running 30 miles per hour I

I opened the door getting into the humvee and waited until the rest were inside (especially mike who was the driver and had the keys) and we drove to Edmond which is north of Oklahoma City as we were in the vicinity. On the way there we saw not many zombies only about 6-8, which makes sense because why would so people be in the road? Anyway we chose Edmond mainly because it only has 90,000+ people compared to Oklahoma City's 640,000+.
If we were attacked by a huge amount of zombies even our body armour and bullets won't save us. Even If I was level 60 instead of 6 if I was attacked by that many there is no hope of retreat and even our bones would disappear under that large of a corpse tide
When we arrived on a small road of Edmond we were ambushed by a group of 5 thugs armed with machetes, the scum probably have done this many times before and maybe they were murderers before the apocalypse. When they realised their mistakes and that we were armed soldiers they tried to flee like scared children, I responded making a 10 meter long air blade which shot forward and sliced them all in two.
Holy damn that is op... maybe I have some problems... I just killed 5 people with the wind... Anyway that took 5 stamina so it is 1 stamina for a two meter long air blade. I would've killed this scum on a daily basis if it wasn't for the law previously
Murderer!!! You have killed (Many) someone(s) without remorse and have been put under the Murderer Faction. Without taking up skill slots you have learned Blood Manipulation and Blood Empowerment! Murder well! - Murder Progenitor
Level 1 Blood Manipulation: Control blood to help slaughter other living beings, this makes your blood manipulation more powerful.
Level 1 Blood Empowerment: All stats gain +1 per the level of the strongest living being you have killed in the last 24 hours.
Uhh I don't know about this murderer faction but the bonuses are amazing. Suddenly a howl so powerful that even a god couldn't rival echos in the entire city and every fibre of my soul, my hairs stand up on end so I look around frantically to see what could've made such a powerful screech.
While i'm searching Ross screams like a little girl that got her teddy bear ripped apart right in front of her. I turned around to see a zombie chase at him, I was about to cut it in two when I noticed that it was different. It had crimson, almost black, red skin and small horns with runes on it's head, nails longer than 10 cm, dreadlocks and pure red eyes, suddenly information on this Infected flooded into my brain.
Level 10 Infected D1: Spirit evolved infected that uses harmless spirit attacks to terrify prey stunning them before ripping them apart.
When I connected the dots of the howl and this zombie, anger and shame coursed through my veins like a drug. Rage suppressed the spirit attacks and I ran with my 2-times speed slashing viciously, the D1 attacked with it's claws and it's speed which was 50% faster than an average human exploded out.
Although it was slower it was aimed at my throat and I had to block it with my sword. When my sword and it's nails collided my superior strength forced it half a meter back, it seems that it only has the strength of an average person. Without giving it any ground my faster and stronger slashes injured it heavily, however as it is only a normal type 1 zombie it at this point and can not feel pain nor fear death.
Although this means the D1 have a powerful offence it means it doesn't try to defend at all so no matter how long it attacks me if it can't break my defence it will inevitably die. My danger sense went off like a nuclear explosion, I dodge to the right to see a pale blue hand with sharp nails barely miss my throat.
I look at this new opponent which seems to have speed which isn't inferior to mine. It looked fairly normal however it had blue skin and it seemed to have 2-times speed, like the rest of the zombies it doesn't have intelligence however it's eyes seemed to have recovered a tiny bit.
Level 10 Infected S1: Agility evolved infected that possesses ghastly speed.
With my dropping stamina I don't have the confidence to take on this newcomer, thinking on all my options I remember my Blood Empowerment skill and I summon up twenty 20cm long wind blades to rip apart the D1. The injured D1 was now slow enough for me who didn't know how to aim the wind blades be able to hit it.
The injured D1 was instantly torn asunder with bodily fluids and brain matter flying everywhere, imagine a sledge hammer hitting a tomato. I level up from level 6 straight to level 9, 6 attribute points into endurance. With blood empowerment all my stats go up by 10 and my speed shoots through the roof, I instantly slash at it's claws with my temporary 3-times strength against its 1-times strength.
The S1's arm was cut off with it being sent back 2 meters, if it was human it would be spitting blood. However it wasn't and it lunged again, I reacted by swinging my Katana in an overhead strike, time almost seemed to stop as I watched the now double dead corpse slowly split in two...
You heave level up to Level 11! 4 into endurance...
