6 The Grind
MC POV :
After killing the zombie, i turned to look for any other zombie available. I could see a group of 4 zombies a few metres away. Aiming towards them i shot another fireball. My aim was a little of so the explosion only hit three of them. As they all started walking towards me, i prepared to use my sword since one is still unharmed. 3 died midway while the forth kept walking towards me. Seeing that he was alone now, i rushed towards it slashed it's chest.
It did 50 damage. It was not that good. I then aimed my sword and pierced it's head.
[Ding! Critical Hit! Zombie killed! 50 Exp earned]
[Level up]
So attacking the head is critical damage. I thought so. It was easy to kill. These zombies are soo slow, a perfect starter enemy. Anyway seeing the level up i remembered i haven't used my points yet.
"Hey Ava, can i gain stats by doing exercises or studying?"
[You can gain stats by doing exercises or studying but it will take months for a single point. It is not recommended.]
"Yeah, that's way too long. It's totally not efficient. So put all my points into Int. I am gonna be a battle mage."
[Yes Vik]
It should be 28 in total now which means 280 mp. I can use 14 fireballs. I can gather a large group of zombies and use Fireball then. It's the most efficient way.
"Anyway Ava, is there any food available in the shop? I need food and water to survive right?"
[Yes, the shop has all kinds of food and drinks available for very cheap. You can survive and stay healthy without eating or drinking thanks to Gamer's body. But you will still feel hunger and thirst. You can ignore them but you may get distracted due to those feelings during a crucial time. So i would recommend eating and drinking daily. You can just eat tasty but extremely unhealthy food now without worry since they won't effect your heath.]
"Wow, now that's the best effect Gamer's body has. Most tasty food are unhealthy. Now i am gonna eat tasty food everyday. Now there are no worries of getting fat or falling ill now. Hey Ava, is there any food pack available in the shop?"
[Yes Vik, there's a All You Can Eat Food Pack. It gives a plate with which you can get any kind of food ever made. You can get an unlimited amout of food for 1 month. It's 1 shop coins.]
"Buy it" There's no need to think. It's a must buy item. Now i can eat Chips and drink cola while watching zombies burn. It's good be a fun time.
[Vik, the food pack is in your inventory]
"Thanks Ava. I am gonna enjoy my time grinding exp." I said as i pulled out the plate. It looked like an ordinary white plate.
"So how do i use it?" I asked Ava.
[You can press a button that's under the plate. It will open a menu with all available food names. It also has a search bar. Or you can just say the name of the food you want and it will make it available. But be a little specific or it might just give you pineapple pizza when you request pizza.]
"Ok. Lets see what it has available." Saying that i pressed the button and a menu popped up a little above the plate. Seeing food names starting with A I started to scroll down to see what available. But even after I scrolled down for a minute, food with names starting with A wasn't even ending. That's a lot of food.
Giving up scrolling I just thought of simple cheese pizza and it magically appeared on the plate. I ate a slice and it was perfect. It was the tastiest cheese pizza I had ever eaten. I really am gonna enjoy my life.
After enjoying the pizza I went out to gather zombies. It took a while but I gathered around 98 zombies in a big empty space. After gathering them i started firing Fireballs as I watched those zombies burn while enjoying some Lay's chips.
I tried a lot of different flavours but I still liked Cream and onion the most. It was just too good. And now I can eat all I want.
After a while all the zombies died. When suddenly a message from the system popped up.
[Ding! 100 Zombies slayed. Zombie Slayer title achieved.]
[Level up]
[Level up]
[Level up]
[Level up]
I received my first title and also leveled up 4 times. Life is going good.
Anyway i wanted to see if it had any effect or it was just for show. I open the menu and title to see what it did
Title :
Zombie Slayer(Beginner) : 200% Damage against zombies.
"Extra damage against Zombies." It was what i had expected. But what's that beginner written besides the title.
[That's the title level. Some titles have different levels. The next level of this title is "Zombie Slayer (Veteran)". You get that for slaying 1000 zombies. It gives 500% damage against zombies.]
That's cool. But not that useful. Zombies are useless anyway. What am i gonna do with so much extra damage against them. In a few days i could probably wipe them out very quickly. But i guess the title will make my grind easier.
"Ava, put all new points 15 points into Int and 5 into Strength." Since i will run out of Mana quickly i can just continue killing them with my sword.
[Done Vik]
"Thanks Ava." Now i should have 47 points in int and 22 strength. After 5 more shots of Fireballs I will have no mana left. But i could continue killing zombies with my sword. With all those points and the title buff it will be one hit kill.
So i continued my Exp grinding.
