Chapter 190 Titan Vs Titan

[Melee Weapons Horde Challenge has begun]

Since it was night time for the others,and trusting that they wouldn't burst into his room especially since it was locked, Zain thought it was the perfect opportunity. Although it was unlikely that anything would happen, the Wild Bones were in some ways protecting his body if anything crazy did occur.

For all Zain knew, during these 'Episodes' he would have his body completely inactive; he was as good as dead until he would wake up.

[Please make your way to the assigned area]

When opening his eyes, Zain was surrounded by the strange walls once again. They were familiar to him so he knew it was the inside of the cave, but there was a big difference compared to last time.

For one, he was an adult this time, rather than in the body of a child.

'With this, I should be able to get through more waves compared to before… and if I want to make the most out of this experience then I need to get through as many waves as I can.'

While walking down the cave, Zain was thinking about the rewards, they had changed with each wave, getting better as they went on, but he doubted that every single time he passed a certain number of waves he would get a return key to this place.

On his second go, Zain thought it was unlikely for him to complete the challenge, which was why he had to keep doing well until he at least got another chance at the return key. It was why he had decided to wait so long to use it in the first place.

Checking out the system, Zain's stats this time were the same as they were in the outside world, so he practically could use his full strength, but his skills weren't present, neither were the items on his body.

He was unable to summon the zombies to help now and he didn't have any of his weapons on him. Eventually he came out from the tunnel structure he was in and now was in the large open space of the cave, where there were several tunnels all leading from the one room.

Rushing over, he quickly went to the table that was full of weapons, and he saw that there was a new addition on the table, and picked it up immediately.

'This is… the Titan machete that I created… it's in here.'

Not only was there that weapon but there were two of them as well. Picking them both up, before he realised it the system had displayed a message once again.

[Your weapons have been selected]

[Wave 1 will begin in 10 seconds]

The waves were the same as they were last time with the first one being a single mutated zombie. As it rushed toward him, Zain swung the sword through the air a few times before it had even hit the zombie.

The weapon was light, and sturdy… It was perfect and as it got within range, from the top down Zain swung it again, slicing right through the zombie's body, splitting it in half.

[A bronze card has been awarded]

'Oh, so the reward changed this time? Is it because the system began rewarding me in cards that it wants to do the same this time? Well for now, I'll just keep the low tier cards. If I was to guess, a return key would at least be a gold tier card.'

The good news was the waves were just like before, with the second wave being a total of five mutated zombies and the third wave being a total of ten. Two more bronze cards were rewarded.

Even without the Titan weapons with Zain's current body taking the assessment this time, he felt like he would have been able to still complete this task, and he would just have to wait for the next set of waves to come.

In the fourth round, a Spitter had been sent out, and this was the first real test for the new Titan weapons. Running from his spot as soon as he heard the Spitter coming out from the tunnel, he swung the weapon, before it could even get its spit ready.

The weapon touched the harder outer casing of the Spitter, and there was a slight resistance, but it was almost nothing as the hand was chopped off, and with another swing with the other sword in his hand, its head rolled onto the ground.

Slicing through the zombies, it felt like he was just swinging his sword through the air, whereas cutting through the Spitter's body was like that of butter.

[A Bronze card has been rewarded]

'A Bronze card, even for an Evolved zombie, I guess I'm at that stage now then, huh?' Zain thought as he waited for the next opponent.

There was a chance that the waves would change slightly compared to last time, as all of the stage 2 zombies should be at the same level just difficult for different people to deal with, and that's when he could hear the heavy footsteps coming one after the other.

It was the sound of the Titan coming through the tunnel walls.

[Wave 5 will now begin]

'Now this is where the real test begins, the Titan sword against the Titan itself.'

Once again, Zain rushed forward towards the tunnel where the Titan was coming out from, he leapt up in the air and held both of the machetes behind his back. The Titan seeing this, seemed to lift both of its large hands with the black armour, as an attempt to block this.

Swinging overhead, Zain slammed both of the weapons into the arms, he used his full strength, not holding back, because if there was one thing the description said about these weapons, it was the fact that they were unbreakable.

A few seconds later, and the black armour on the Titan could be seen cracking.

'I guess the same can't be said for your armour!'

Zain thought, as he fell to the ground and saw the black armour falling to the ground, this was a huge improvement and it made him wonder what the other weapons could do as well.

[Wave 5 has been cleared]

[Wave 6 will now begin]

This was it, the wave at which Zain failed at last time, but he knew that today, he wasn't going to fail here, just what wave would he be able to get to?
