Ray ignored the system as he looked at Alex on the ground.

"Stupid goblins! He was my chance of finding more humans." Ray shouted and stood up with a heavy sigh.

'What am I going to do next,' he thought.

"I should clear this dungeon first," Ray said as he looked around and remembered beast crystal. 

"Time for evolution," Ray said as he went around the two rooms and picked the crystals of the defeated beasts from the ground.

He found 12 crystals in total, 10 from the goblins, 1 from the pocket of the human, and one last one from the goblin chief.

Standing next to the dead goblin chief, he looked up how many crystals he still needed.

His Evolution required 3 more crystals, so he swallowed 3 goblin crystals.

"What?? Why didn't you tell me before?" Ray shouted at the system, but it didn't answer.

"So now level 5 is the goal," Ray said as he stuffed the remaining crystals into his pocket. 

Ray entered the room where the goblins killed Alex and quickly exited the room through the door the goblins came from.

As he opened the door, he was surprised to see that it led him outside.

"Wait, am I done with the dungeon?" Ray asked, surprised.

It was night outside. Ray walked a little until he found a tree with ripe-looking fruits. 

"Wait, now that I think about it, I haven't eaten for almost a day," Ray muttered.

"System, why am I not hungry?" Ray asked

[Food restores health. When health is full, the user feels no need to eat] the system informed him. 

'So that is why,' even though he didn't need to, Ray still ate the fruit while resting against the tree trunk.

"I wonder if all I will do in this world is slay beasts," Ray muttered to himself.

After resting beneath the tree for some time, a sound alerted Ray, and he stood up quickly and looked around, trying to find the source, but it was night, so he couldn't see clearly.

After a while, Ray saw two creatures coming toward him. They were moving so slowly that Ray could have run away if he wanted to, but he waited to see what they were.

They got close to him then he saw that they were covered with white wraps all around their body.

"Zombies," Ray shouted as he jumped backward.

He couldn't see them clearly, so his inspect skill didn't work on them. He kept walking back slowly until he heard a sound coming from behind.

Three more zombies were coming toward him, making it a total of five zombies, Ray didn't know their level or skills, and it was nighttime, so he couldn't charge blindly and get killed.

He was now level four, so his strength and agility were increased, and he would like to test it, so Ray advanced towards the two undead in front of him.

"Graa!!" the zombies' growled as he ran towards them. He slashed their hands as they attempted to grab him and cut off their heads with his second spear.

[Experience (40/500)]

Turning around, he saw the three remaining undead slowly walking towards him a few meters away. 

Knowing how slow they were, he walked towards them, sidestepped the outstretched hands, cut off two more heads, and moved back from the last zombie.

The zombie, as slow in the head as on foot, tripped over his fallen comrades falling flat on the ground.

Looking at the pathetic creature, Ray walked up to it and stabbed it in the head.

[Experience (100/500)]

Ray heard several dings in his head as he killed the zombies.

"Wow, they were very easy," Ray thought as he looked around, wishing more would come for him to grind and increase his Exp.

The ground shook heavily. It felt like someone was approaching, and the air became heavy and cold.

Ray turned his head and saw a tall zombie, he couldn't see clearly, but it was at least 3 meters.

"What is that" Ray muttered.

Ray remembered the dungeon where he came from.

"if I ran back there, I would be safe," Ray thought.

[Quest Triggered]

[Quest: Defeat evolved undead]

[Reward: New skills (night vision)]

"Night vision. That is a very nice skill, but I wonder if I could defeat this evolved zombie." 

Ray fixed his posture and waited for the evolved zombie to come closer.

"Unlike the normal zombie, this one is fairly large, so it should be slower," Ray said uncertainly as the zombie came within in range. 

He threw his blood spear to the neck of the zombie, and before it could react, the spear pierced his neck.

"I knew it was slow," Ray said as his spear appeared back in his hand, and he rushed toward the zombie, the mutant smashed his hands on the ground to crush Ray, but he was too fast for the slow giant.

He slashed the zombie's knees, making it growl and swing its arm to swat him away. Ray jumped backward and dashed to the back of the zombie.

[Activate power punch]

Ray commanded mentally as he dropped his spear on the ground. He jumped and struck the zombie on the back before it could react and turn around, it fell with a loud thud.

The zombie growled loudly and tried to stand up, but Ray was already near its neck, plunging both spears through the neck and pulling the spears to rip its head off.

*Slash!*

The evolved zombie's head fell to the ground, and Ray breathed a sigh of relief.

[You've earned 30 Exp for defeating evolved undead]

[Quest completed]

[Reward: Night vision]

[Night vision: Allows the user to see clearly at night.]

Ray saw the system prompt, and immediately his surrounding became clearer to him. He saw a cemetery far from him.

"So that is where the zombies came from," Ray muttered. He turned and saw another cemetery on the other side.

He walked a bit forward and saw another dungeon's door and sighed heavily

"Time to level up and evolve,"
