Chapter 181 A Trap

The creature before the biker gang had made them see their life flash before their eyes. Even if they managed to survive the encounter, they imagined that they would have nightmares about this very moment for years.

After all, they had just seen it kill humans and zombies alike without any effort at all, and they were sure they were next on that list, that was until they saw a man come out of the air and hit the creature with such strength that it crashed into a car causing a large dent.

"The strange mister is helping us again," Wiz said, pointing.

The others couldn't quite believe it. They thought what Dali had told them was all a lie, it had to be a lie, but now seeing that a person was able to do something superhuman, they were more inclined to believe it, and not to mention, he was now their only hope of getting out of here alive.

"I think someone has an apology to make after this," Nit said with a glance towards one of the members behind them.

"You guys, make sure no zombies get involved. There is going to be quite a bit of noise." Zain shouted as he put his machetes away and pulled out both of his handguns. Before the level three zombie could even charge forward, Zain started to fire bullets at it.

Using its long sharp hands, it was blocking where the bullets would hit.

'This is a level 3 zombie. It reminds me of that other level 2 that I met in the secret weapon room. It must be an evolution of that type.'

Zain continued to fire bullets, hitting different parts of the body, and in the end, it looked like the level 3 zombie lost its patience as it charged forward, swinging its arm toward Zain.

He rolled on the ground and the arm of the zombie sliced through a car. When it's back was turned, Zain fired a few more bullets towards its back. They had hit the target. Most of them were deflected and fell to the ground, but a few bullets had hit a certain area on its back, and Zain noticed the blood coming out of the wounds.

'A zombie type that focuses on speed, they all have a high level of endurance, and no doubt a level 3 would have a high level of endurance as well, but since it's not the type to focus on endurance, there has to be a part that can be hit.'

Zain was searching for a weak point in the zombie. Earlier, when he swung his machetes, he noticed they had chipped from the initial attack, which showed how strong the strange elongated bone parts of the zombie were, which was why he was shooting it with his guns, to find a weak point quicker.

Now, switching his weapons again, Zain was ready to go in.

'It's weak point is its lower back, but it's not going to make it easy, and let me just attack it.'

Zain went for a stab, but his sword was deflected. He leaned back as the zombie made a large cut across his chest, cutting through the stab-proof vest he had. The zombie quickly swung its other sharp limb, lifting Zain. He managed to block it, but his grip was weakened, and the machete had gone flying out of his hand down the street.

The other gang members were paying attention to what was happening while also doing as Zain had requested. They were fighting off the zombies that were coming towards them due to the gunshot noise, but there weren't many in the area, perhaps due to the level 3 zombie in the first place.

With only one machete in Zain's hand, he was now going on the defensive as he carefully avoided each swing, following it as closely as possible.

'The creature… it's just as fast as me…no, it's probably faster than me. But thanks to my sword mastery, I can see which direction he is going to strike before it does it itself, allowing me to react quicker.'

Zain could tell this was a dangerous task. One swing from that and even his endurance wouldn't be able to help him survive an attack. That was, in the end, the reason why it was a platinum-level quest.

After the vast improvement that Zain had made last time, he couldn't give this chance up. With one machete in his hand, all he could do was dodge. Zain did so carefully, moving back until he could feel his foot touch the weapon.

A swing from the right side and Zain ducked, picking it up from the ground, and now the zombie had swung both of its arms in an x-shape. Zain lifted his own weapon in an x to block the hit but was sent flying into the car, crashing with a loud bang.

As the evolved zombie charged towards him, he quickly jumped up onto the roof of the car and leapt back, making the zombie crash into the car and slice a part of it.

'This Zombie, although it's at level 3, it still isn't too bright, is it? Maybe there is something I can use.' Zain thought.

Due to the danger of the creature, if Zain was unable to kill it, then he was thinking about giving up on the quest if he couldn't find a way, but the answer soon came to him. Putting one of the machetes away, he pulled out a gun and started to fire towards the creature.

It went on a ramp on the car, cutting it to bits as they flew out everywhere. Then Zain stood there, continuing to fire. Just as he expected, the creature continued to charge at him when Zain suddenly jumped, not forwards but backwards, and the creature didn't stop and jumped after him.

The two of them suddenly started to fall down, along with Zain.

"Welcome to my territory." He smiled.
