Chapter 133 – Queen
The point I was lacking was a total of 250 points, but luckily, exactly 250 points ended up in my hands.
Without me needing to say anything, the status window opened the store as if it had been waiting and purchased a mid-level defense skill.
This resulted in the points I had disappearing in an instant, but I became even stronger.
As expected, life was real.
“Huh… ?!”
I, who had no intention of attacking and was busy defending, started to not only defend but also attack, and the zombies looked quite embarrassed.
Zombies can no longer attack and are now in an opposing position, desperate to defend themselves.
With this momentum, I constantly swung my sword, looking for an opportunity to kill for sure.
He intentionally moved as if he was allowing an attack to distract his guard, but unlike a zombie that can’t feel pain, he was scared and ignored the loopholes he saw.
It becomes a little dangerous.
There are still two zombies I’m dealing with.
Before the fight, I could have easily won as long as I had intermediate defense skills, but the problem was that gaining points while allowing attacks was too much of an advantage.
Although he has become stronger, his body is still greatly injured.
The more you move, the more the pain increases, and the wound becomes wider than before and blood continues to flow.
If things continue like this, I feel anxious, as if I will collapse first from excessive bleeding or die suddenly.
There was nothing I could do.
I have no choice but to kill it quickly, even if it means overdoing it a bit.
I attacked indiscriminately, generously allowing attacks that could not be ignored, even if they were not fatal.
As a result, the nail zombie, whose body parts were falling off one by one, did not last long and died a meaningless death with both of his arms his cut off and his neck his his also falling off.
This left the zombie alone.
At first, he was just watching us fight leisurely, then he gritted his teeth and shouted.
“Why did you suddenly become so strong… !”
As soon as I caught a zombie without any warning, I was complaining as if I was feeling aggrieved at the sight of myself suddenly becoming stronger to an unassailable level.
I felt like I wanted to make fun of that shouting, but I didn’t have the time at all.
Even though I shed blood, I shed too much.
Before that, I needed to at least apply pressure to reduce bleeding, but that wasn’t the case either then or now, so I was losing my mind little by little.
“Aaaaah!”
Still, I guess he didn’t know my situation well, so in the end, I was struggling with the goal of giving flesh and getting bones for the last time.
Thanks to that, I was able to easily take out even the last remaining zombie.
“Ugh… !”
As the situation came to an end, the pain came belatedly.
Since I don’t have any medical knowledge, I’m not sure about the exact condition, but just looking at it, the injuries were pretty serious.
Instead of trying to stop the bleeding from a wound like this, I was moving my body forcefully and pulling out every bit of blood, so it didn’t make sense if it wasn’t serious.
I quickly took off the clothes I was wearing.
Then, a body with strong muscles was revealed.
There was also a large wound filled with blood on the side of the body.
As if it were clothes I was wearing, zombie blood and flesh were stuck here and there, but I brushed them off as much as I could and then used the inside to tie them tightly around my waist.
It was difficult to hold back a moan as it touched the wound directly.
Even if my physical abilities were ridiculously high through the status window, I couldn’t do anything about the pain.
“Haa… Haa… “
The good news is that I didn’t bleed dangerously.
I clenched my teeth and began to walk with difficulty.
A situation where you never know when the zombies will attack again.
And the queen was said to be here, and since her greatest power was to protect the queen was neutralized, she felt that this would be her last good chance to catch the queen.
Colonel Zombie said that the Queen’s abilities are at a poor level, so I think she would be able to kill her even in this state.
But she felt like she was going to die before that.
The status window looks like he’s hurriedly opening the window and looking for something like a potion in the store.
Are potions an item that can destroy balance? No matter how much she searched, she couldn’t find the existence of a potion that would miraculously heal a wound if taken when injured.
The only thing that comes out is a medicine that turns a zombified person back with 5,000 points.
I left my empty laughter behind and set off to find the queen.
I took my first step into the most promising building.
If I were here, would it be the first time a being called God has granted my earnest wish to find it all at once?
“Kyaaaaah!”
A strange-looking monster found me and was shouting in warning.
“Are you the queen… ?”
A thing that looks like a large ant. No, the bitch screamed and took the bug that had just emerged from the egg to the zombie locked in a cage right next to it.
Then the bug went straight into the zombie’s mouth and changed the zombie’s appearance.
“You’re making me a parasite like this… ?”
It was refreshing to think that all the questions about how I made the zombies my own were finally answered.
But that’s just it.
“Okay, that’s enough.”
There seems to be no need to know more than this.
I raised my sword.
The Queen urgently let out her screams and shouted at the zombies she had just made into her own minions.
Those zombies can never stop me, and since they are in a cage in the first place, they can’t rush to me to save the queen.
So, without any hindrance, I swung my sword towards the queen’s neck.
Suddenly!
The queen’s cleanly cut head.
The queen’s head rolled around on the floor.
A pair of antennae on its forehead she was moving slowly, as if it did not die immediately after its head she was cut off, but other than that, there was nothing else.
After a while, the queen’s antennae fell limp and she died completely.
Likewise, when her queen died, the zombie that had just become her queen let out a scream, perhaps due to some unknown reason, and then her body fell to the floor.
A clear and cheerful alarm sound that is heard as soon as the queen is killed.
[Congratulations! You killed the queen! +10]
She smiled as she sat in front of her with only 10 points for capturing her queen.
Well, since the Queen’s subordinates were strong, I gave them a huge amount of points, so there was nothing to regret.
Right now I just want to go home right away.
I left the building, trying to ignore the throbbing pain in my back.
Then, the queen’s screams right before she died seemed not to push me away, but to attract her own subordinates to her, and there were a lot of zombie corpses right in front of her building.
I think I ran as fast as I could to protect her queen, but I felt like I was one step too late, maybe even more.
Thinking that all of this was the point, I felt a sense of regret later on, and then shook my head and quickened my steps due to the pain I felt in my back.
Step by step… Step by step…
I head home with steps that are not normal at all.
I feel like I’ve realized once again that the human body is really weak.
Even though my physical condition was like this, the distance to home was very long.
Furthermore, there is no better prey to hunt than me, who has become weaker.
It wasn’t like I didn’t know this, and zombies were rushing from all over to eat me.
Even though I was wounded, I was not weak enough to be attacked by zombies everywhere.
The problem is that even with those zombies, you have no choice but to move to kill them, and the more you do that, the more severe the wound becomes.
I quickly applied pressure with my clothes, but my clothes were already stained red.
It seemed like something wasn’t stopping the bleeding at all.
I started losing more blood than before and even lost consciousness.
I hadn’t walked very far, but I felt like I would collapse right away if I made a mistake, so I wanted to rest.
However, the worst thing was that the moment I laid down to rest here, I would faint and not be able to wake up for a long time.
Then, they will allow a vain attack on regular zombies, not mutant zombies, and they will turn into the same zombies and walk around drawing pictures.
Because of this, it seemed like my only option was to somehow stay calm and go home.
One step. Another step. This is the first time the distance from home feels this long.
I’m so dazed that I can’t even think anymore.
In a way, he just kept walking like a zombie and endlessly swinging his sword at the zombies that were running at him.
Honestly, what am I doing right now? I am having doubts about whether the direction I am going in is the right path.
Slowly, I felt the presence of people from afar.
Even though it was supposed to be a dark night, the lights were dimly visible.
“It’s a zombie again… ?”
Continuing speech.
A voice full of annoyance was heard, as if it mistook me for a zombie.
“You do it.”
“Ugh. Annoying. “
I guess I was able to catch enough of one animal and one of them was calmly approaching me.
Then, just before he grabbed the knife and struck it down to kill him.
“Huh… ?”
He found me, and only then did I come to my senses and collapse.
