Chapter 216 – Zombie Apocalypse 3 (1)
Day 12 of the zombie apocalypse.
Compared to other classes, the time of possession is the shortest, but it is a world filled with accidents and incidents, so each day feels long.
In that world, I am checking the status window.
【Skill: Summer Possession (S)】
【You can be possessed by a being in the lower world that meets the requirements or by a being that has been possessed.】
【To be possessed again, registration in the possession slot is required.】
【Minimum required possession period of 5 days until possession return trigger】
【Fitness requirement of 90% for new possession】
【One. Layer liberation: A possessed body with a 100% assimilation rate can cause time to pass for the class to which it belongs.】
【Possession Slot: 4】
If we look at the existing items first, the suitability requirements have been lowered and the suitability restrictions necessary for re-doing have disappeared.
And although the possession slot has been increased by one, there doesn’t seem to be room to possess anywhere else now.
The most important thing is probably the newly created item.
‘Liberation of classes? Can hierarchical time flow?’
The possessed bodies that have now achieved 100% assimilation rate are Lee Sian and Han Sian. What happens?
Since I decided to use Layer Liberation, I was able to roughly understand what the skill was.
First, the skill could not be used while possessed by another possessed body, so it could not be used right away.
And the speed at which time passes seems to be determined by the ratio of the combat power of Yusian and the possessed body.
Yu Xian’s combat power is now close to 500, but for Lee Xian and Han Xian, both exceed 1000.
According to rough calculations, if you spend 10 days as a Yu-sian, 5 days will pass in the ranks of Lee-sian and Han-sian.
In the first place, if I possess the lower world, Yu Xian’s time does not pass, so I don’t know if it is necessary for the time of other classes to pass.
I don’t know if I get stronger later or if I strengthen my summer possession and the time multiplier increases, but right now there was no reason to use it.
‘Did I expect too much?’
I thought it would change a lot when I reached S rank because it was my fundamental skill, but it didn’t change much.
I thought it might be because the difficulty level of the quest to achieve 100% assimilation rate twice was a bit easy.
“Because there are many more things to come.”
Yu Xian’s skills, self-establishment and skill link, may create synergy if these are further strengthened.
“First, I have to think about what I have to do today.”
Because you never know what will happen in this world every day.

As I was touching the white sword left behind by the being who fell from the tower, I heard Naeun’s deep voice coming from behind.
“Hmm… Is it morning?”
“Yes, it’s morning. It looks like your rhythm of life has returned?”
“You forced me to sleep♡”
Naeun crawled on all fours and attacked me.
Naeun pressed her hands against my body and rubbed her face on my shoulder.
“Are you looking at that bone knife?”
“Yes. This isn’t going away, and it’s still there.”
The King of Shadows, I heard the story, so I tried to possess Cian Raven, but in the end I couldn’t figure it out.
Could it be that I confused someone with the Yin attribute mana I used?
“Should I wash my face… I’m so sleepy…”
“Okay, put some water on your face.”
Naeun stood up with his hand on my shoulder and went into the bathroom.
I put the bone knife in its sheath and waited for Naeun to come out.
The sound of water was heard and Naeun, who felt much cleaner, sat down on the mattress again.
“Naeun, I have something to teach you.”
“Are you going to tell me something secret?”
“How to become a little stronger like me.”
Naeun’s eyes lit up at that story.
Since she was originally a sportswoman, Naeun really liked getting stronger.
*
“Sian, you did it!”
After breakfast, she stayed in her room and taught female skills to Naeun.
Since Lee Sian has a small amount of mana, there is less negative mana that can be given to Naeun, so it took a little longer.
Still, I was able to learn it in 2 hours, so isn’t that fast enough? I think I’ll have to do something for Zhuge Xian next time I see him.
‘I don’t think there’s anything I can do for you.’
Naeun placed her hand on the danjeon and closed her eyes.
Even though it is a very small amount of inner strength, there is a clear difference between what is not and what is.
“It’s kind of like a baby.”
“Phew.”
I said something strange with a relaxed face and ended up spouting it out.
Fortunately, she covered her mouth with her hand, but Naeun innocently opened one of her eyes and looked at me.
“Why?”
“You suddenly said it was a baby. I still have two contraceptives left.”
“The location is a little different, but babies start out smaller than millet, right? That’s why I said they looked like babies.”
However, unlike pregnancy, female gong only has the effect of making the person who practices it clean and healthy.
As an additional effect of internal energy, her strength will become slightly stronger, but there is no way to let her energy out.
So is she a martial artist who can become a second-class martial artist? Although she is limited by being a woman, isn’t it amazing that she can mass-produce second-class drones like this?
“Can I just keep doing this? Will I get stronger and prettier?”
“Okay, now I stretch during break time and sometimes have a fortune-telling breakfast.”
“Okay. I’ll do it every day!”
Naeun answered with a bright face and came into my arms.

After lunch, we decided to attack the department store again where we failed last time.
I grabbed my properly charged smartphone and slowly walked outside the supermarket.
“It seems like the patrol team has a hard time every time.”
Naeun said this after seeing a zombie corpse stabbed by something with a sharp head, which you can often see on the street.
“Yeah, it’s really fortunate that there haven’t been any casualties in the patrol team yet.”
The Park siblings, Park Jae-young and Park Eun-seo, whom I picked up last time. Although the older brother, Park Jae-young, is young, he went on several patrols and came back unscathed.
Because I have a spear, protective equipment, and experience that are more durable than a kitchen knife attached to a pole.
I don’t know where the zombies might be accumulating again, but for now, the supermarket was safe.
“What did Hyo-rim’s person say last time? You said there were a lot of bad things piled up in the department store, right?”
“Yes, it’s not at the level of the evolved zombies we faced last time, but it’s probably stronger overall than regular zombies.”
“Can I do it? That lady… Doesn’t look that strong.”
Naeun said, his cheeks turning slightly red.
The name of Naegong Simbeop is a bit embarrassing to say to outsiders.
And it was cute to think what would happen with the Neigong mind technique I learned this morning.
“What are you going to do now that you’ve just entered the profession? I’ll do everything, so stay by my side.”
“I don’t like that.”
Naeun pouted his lips.
Naeun’s presence, knowingly or unknowingly, was quite significant as she could receive the savior’s effect that helped her when fighting strong enemies just by being by her side.
“You don’t like princess Naeun?”
“Princesses these days are enterprising. They don’t just want help. If you’re a queen, I’ll think about it.”
Naeun, who was ranked among the people who were good at handling windows at the supermarket, was not the type of woman to receive help for a long time.
The equipment we have now is a smartphone, a gym bag, some emergency food, two supermarket silver spears, and a sheathed bone sword.
Try not to use bone swords as much as possible and make ends meet with two spears. If you don’t have anyone else, you can use Shadow Craft.
Naeun, who saw me throwing a shadow lance to deal with someone who fell from the tower, clearly knew that I could use special powers.
‘If Choi Seong-tae has mana, all you have to do is carve a healing magic circle on her face…’
It was disappointing that Choi Seong-tae, another person who knew that fact, had no mana.
The people at the mart seemed a little afraid of me spending a lot of time with Seongtae Choi in the customer support department, so it was a bit difficult for me to stay there for long.
In that tense state, I passed the gym that had no results the other day and arrived near the department store.
Since this place is not included in the supermarket patrol’s patrol route, there were quite a few zombies.
I caught a few with the people at Hyorim High School last time, but how many are there inside the department store?
“Sian, are you okay?”
“Yes. As long as you don’t get bitten, I will definitely save you.”
I lightly kissed Naeun’s forehead and lightly held the silver spear.
“Let’s go. To get supplies.”
“Okay. I’m going to pick up supplies like usual.”
Naeun also held her silver spear tightly with both hands and prepared to deal with the zombies.
“Krrrr’
“Big huge!”
I felt a bit of longing while listening to the sound of zombies for the first time in quite a while.
My whole body was exhausted just from hitting that one thing.
There are two zombies running, so Naeun and I can catch them one by one.
At that time, the sound of a car was heard from afar.
“What?”
Bang bang! Bang bang!
It didn’t stop there and even honked loudly.
The zombies, whose eyes turned red when they saw us, also turned their heads to the greater auditory stimulation.
Zombies started pouring out of the department store entrance, and Naeun and I looked at each other and nodded.
You must escape to a nearby building with a narrow entrance.
I could tell that much just by looking at his eyes, so I activated my presence detection and ran to a nearby building.
I went up to the second floor and looked out through the window.
“Sian, what is that car?”
“I don’t know. First, I don’t think I’m in my right mind.”
Buwaaaaang!
Pow! Pow! Poop!
I must have stepped on the accelerator hard, and a car covered in metal ran at high speed, hitting the zombies at the entrance of the department store.
The zombies that were not hit touched the car while waving their hands and started running after it.
With the car moving away, the zombies that came down from the department store began to spread out onto the streets.
Even if the department store becomes something similar to a dungeon, I don’t think you’re bound to it?
We held our breath in a building on the side of the road and watched as many zombies spread.
“I think I made a good decision not to go into the department store. It’s a lifesaver.”
“That might be true. There are more zombies than I thought.”
I think it would be okay if we fought step by step, but it’s easy to be surrounded in a situation where everyone is gathered like that.
I don’t know if I can at least use an area attack, but it was difficult to do anything because almost all of my mana disappears with just a single Shadow Lance shot.
“Is the 3rd department store also failing to supply?”
I don’t know if I could bring more people, but I knew that two people couldn’t do it.
At that time, the sound of the car was heard loudly again.
Buaaaaang!!!
Pow! Pow! Poop!
The car from earlier seemed to have spun around once and started running, fighting off the zombies.
Perhaps because there were more zombies in front of the department store than expected, I couldn’t go through in a straight line and took a curve in the other direction.
“You’re heading in the direction of the supermarket?”
“Sian, shouldn’t we get out of here quickly?”
The zombies that came out of the department store started following the cars and taking over the streets, so as Naeun said, we couldn’t just watch from above.
This is why people don’t use cars even though they are plentiful. Why are they suddenly so crazy?
I have to escape from here first.
