"Please, be safe, Lord Shane..." Mr. Wadsworth said, his voice tinged with concern and respect for Shane's leadership.
It hadn't been that long, but with Shane's lead, the estate had truly prospered, and he could tell that they were heading in the right direction. It was only a matter of time until their Springriver Manor would become a formidable fortress that could fight against any type of Zombies.
"Thank you, Mr. Wadsworth. Please take care of the estate while I'm gone. We have experts in various fields, so consult them if you need anything. As for the resources from the Survivor Stores, just rely on Lily, Elsa, and Layla... They seem to have better items being sold in their Survivor Stores.
As long as you have enough Zombie Cores, go ahead and purchase from their stores." Shane said.
The butler already knew about the concept of Survivor Stores from Foreign Survivors like him so he didn't need to explain it too much.
Then, Shane turned to Raze. Roan was nowhere to be seen, so he seemed to have returned as a Tattoo Mark on Raze's arm.
"Here is another payment." Raze said as she gave a bottle containing 10mL of Roan's Blood. Indeed, it was Dragon Blood, and Shane hadn't expected to have it.
"I'll keep this." Shane said as he accepted the battle. Although he already has an extra Dragon's Veil Elixir, pure Dragon's Blood could still be used elsewhere.
"We'll be venturing into the surrounding areas for exploration. There are intriguing dungeons that have caught our attention... However, we will still return to this place from time to time." Raze informed Shane.
"That's good. You need to level up as well." Shane replied.
"Yes... Thank you for upgrading our items, Clan Leader... We'll work hard developing this shelter." Raze said, as Shane had actually helped them obtain some Epic Tier Items. They were something that could not be purchased anywhere yet, so they knew that they had an advantage in case they met other survivors.
Finally, Shinja spoke up.
"In the coming days, I plan to assist Eldric in his mission to eradicate a den of Toxic Zombies... If you're going to Sector 3, we might actually meet each other." Shinja said.
Shane already knew that Eldric wanted to clear this den. In the first place, Eldric decided to stay in their estate to learn some poison techniques from Shinja. Now, Eldric had already learned enough to survive the Toxic Zombies and with Shinja helping him, their success rate would be higher.
Shane then looked at the map to see the Sector 3.
"Sector 3, huh... I don't think I'll pass through that area..." Shane said as he shook his head.
How could someone have surpassed his achievements and ascended to such a high level faster than him?!
In his previous regional server, he was at the highest level, and the second was only level 17. The gap was too huge!
Because of that, in the server merge, he was expecting to still be on top, but he was completely wrong!
"This is absurd... What kind of Talent does he have?" Alexander muttered.
Despite killing zombies 24/7 with his loyal pack of white wolves, summoned through his unique Talent, Pack Master, Alexander struggled to understand their huge disparity in levels.
Currently, his Spirit has reached 1,000 points thanks to various hidden rewards and potions he obtained. He even collected some mysterious crystals that enhanced his Spirit.
Thanks to that, he could summon a total of 5 White Spirit Wolves as a Pack Master.
A single White Spirit Wolf could fight 10 Jumper Zombies at the same time. They also don't get tired, and they don't turn into zombies once they are bitten. They would just disappear once they obtained too many injuries.
Soon, he found other Survivors who had Talent related to recovering his Spirit Points so he could easily hunt Zombies.
Thanks to the fast recovery, he could summon up to 8 White Spirit Wolves!
"Just who is this Shadow Strider?" Alexander muttered.

Currently, he was clad in clean leather armor adorned with intricate engravings... Although he wasn't as handsome as Shane, he certainly looked more masculine with his rugged build and tall height.
At this time, his shelter was on top of a ten-story building...
As he overlooked the abandoned city, excitement filled his eyes.
"I need to hunt more zombies. I can't relax anymore..."
