Crafter put 10 cores and a ring next to it, and used the skill by touching the ring. Obviously, the skill itself knew what to do, the crafter just activated it. As a result, the ring gradually swallowed the cores and in a minute everything was ready.
Since Sam did not feel any negative emotions from them, he could even go to the market and see what is on sale, but nevertheless he decided not to take risks, he had almost no cores left and he had nothing else to trade.
He left through the central gate, after all, only those who went inside were checked. Sam went to the place where he hid his backpack and activated the ring by hiding it inside, he was also able to stuff a sword and a pistol there.
He practiced and after a while learned how to summon a sword in his hand. The ring had no bindings, so anyone could use it.
Sam was now fully prepared for the last part of the plan. We need to get a parachute and an airplane, in the worst case, the helicopter will do as well. But he did not hope for a helicopter, they were probably already dismantled by the government and others, but it is impossible to put the plane in the camp.
Zombies, too, would hardly begin to devour airplanes, so in theory they should be available at the Airport. Of course, Sam had no idea how to fly the plane, so the pilot will also have to look, well, or information on how to fly the plane.
Of course, Sam would not have hoped that by reading the brochure he would become a passable pilot, so he dropped that option.
The airport was quite far away, but Sam got there the next morning. There were indeed planes at the Airport, although it was controlled by the military. There were few of them, perhaps about two dozen, and of course they were armed.
Given the crowds of zombies, and the fact that there are Z1s that can collect zombies and attack the camps, Sam did not think that the military would be sprayed on all strategic objects. Apparently they didn't want the survivors to steal or damage what was left.
Sam decided to start by trying to communicate with them directly. He went to the main entrance to the Airport.
- Hi guys, can I find out who is in charge here, I wanted to talk.
- Speak.
- I'm ready to pay, I wanted to get to the Amazon, about 3-3.5 thousand kilometres from here, I won't have to land anywhere, I will jump from a parachute. May I ask for the price? I can pay with cores.
The officer did not immediately refuse, returned to the others and they began to discuss the issue. Sam doubted that many of these guys were at least level 5.
Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel.
The cores were now extremely valuable and in demand by the government. And in order to get at least one core, these guys will most likely have to lose several lives, well, or expensive ammunition.
Sam was once again glad that he had such a convenient skill, otherwise, even with high parameters, given Sam's cowardice, he would not dare to approach people with weapons that way.
- We can help, but you will have to pay 15 cores in advance, this is on condition that you are alone, since parachutes are not lying on the road either. You cannot take any weapons on board.
Sam didn't have much of a choice, dealing with so many people with weapons would be too dangerous. He tried to bargain, but the officer remained adamant.
Sam said that he needed at least a day to collect the required amount, so he hoped that by tomorrow they would be ready. Yesterday, on the way to the Airport, he found three cores, for a total of four, one went to the sword. He will have to try to collect everything by tomorrow.
But the city was big and Sam was fast enough, if you ignore all but the type 1 zombies, it should work out.
Sam wasted no time starting to run around the city. At night, he found where to spend the night and was going to continue the next morning.
In the morning he again got ready to hunt, but at that moment when Sam left the apartment and went down the stairs, the skill worked. It was impossible to react in time for his body tho, he was hit with two daggers in the head.
Although Sam's body did not have time to react, the armor was activated instinctively, all the same, he trained for this for a long time.
The armor stopped the daggers, and Sam realized that the enemy had completely merged with the environment, and in this case, with the wall by the stairs. It was almost impossible to notice her, at least Sam did not notice her at all.
The killer was a woman, and as soon as she realized that the attack had failed, she immediately fled. She seemed to have assumed in advance that the attack might fail.
Sam was frankly frightened and froze for a moment, he did not expect this. Realizing what had happened, he became angry. And he even began to run in pursuit, but still fear overcame his anger and he stopped.
Who knows what traps might await him if he tries to chase an experienced assassin? Sam was well aware that he was not the only one so smart, walking around killing people. Sam did not mind killing weaklings, but he did not want to fight with someone as strong as himself.
Honor? Bravery? Glory? Pride? Those things were just bullshit for idiots. Survival is what really matters.
Sam calmed down and began to carefully leave the scene in a roundabout way. There were no more problems, this assassin was clearly not targeting Sam, she was just as psychopathic as he was, cutting everyone out for the sake of experience.
This bitch must have tracked Sam and was waiting patiently at the exit, setting up an ambush. He took note of this dangerous ability.
He run away to another part of the city to keep his core hunting.
Passing along another street, Sam met two S1s at once, they pounced on him at the same time, one directly, the other jumped off the wall. Sam immediately moved towards the one that jumped from the wall and with an experienced movement cut off his paw, while he managed to jump away from the second.
However, the presentiment of danger worked and Sam again had to move away, a fireball flew past.
He again rushed to S1 and thanks to the injury of the latter, Sam decapitated the creature. Of course he got hit by the second S1, but that beast lost his head in return.
Even a monkey, having killed so many people, monsters and animals, would become experienced in this matter. Sam could have deal with them without exchanging blows, but it was faster because the S1s are really dodgy.
Sam managed to collect what he needed before evening and returned to the Airport.
