5 Chapter 5

12th January 2020

Finally, the time I get to work and my work, I meant hunting zombies. Seriously, zombie hunting is now like a full-time job to me. I kill zombies and I get paid. My today's work was to clear the 2 buildings in my block and hunt down 77 zombies with a knife to fulfill a quest and earn a good reward.

Yesterday, I took the day off enjoyed my time watching movies, playing games, and using the wi-fi till it lasted, a day I spend doing nothing useful.

Now it was time to hunt. I went to the lobby and used the back door to leave since the back door leading to an alley it would be easy to leave without the zombies noticing me and I made sure I locked the door while leaving.

After killing 20 zombies and after yesterday's experiment with my skills.

My knives weren't in good condition the blade had rolls and chips, if I use it any further the blade might break. I checked the durability of my knives both of my F-ranked knives were in critical condition of 2/10 and 3/10.

I stored them away and opened the gamer store. I tried buying an E-ranked knife but I couldn't purchase it. I need to be at least level 20 and ranked E to buy E-ranked items and weapons. So of course I bought the knives that were available for me.

A kukri an arterial weapon perfect for slicing through flesh but sucks at stabbing and a bowie knife a hunting tool and known to be a survival knife not as good as kukri when it comes to slicing but very good in stabbing, both cost me 300 g points but they were worth it. I also purchase around 10 kunai throwing knives for around 500 g points, they would be best for range.

I tried to enter from the back door but the door was locked. So, I had to climb the wall and break through the nearest window.

" That would have made some noise".

Of course, I used my senses and located every zombie in the building and there were lots of them around 52. I pulled out my throwing knife in one hand and a kukri in the other. I encountered two on the way, I used the iron strike skill and easily slashed their heads off.

"Nice, this is legit", I moved on I encountered 3 on the way. I quickly threw 3 of my throwing knives at them, aiming at their heads. With these methods, I managed to take out every last undead in the building. I managed to earn at least 8000 g points from killing 50 zombies and 1000 g points from clearing the building.

My level rose up to lvl.8 and I got 3 skill points with this I can unlock 3 new skills. While going through this experience I noticed that after using the iron strike skill about 10 times, I can't use it again for a while for at least 2 hours. Meaning my skill has to recharge for 2 hours after using it 10 times. which was quite a bummer because I was having fun using this skill. I managed to clear this building in 3 hours and 3 hours of continuous movements and stress was enough for me for the day. I barricaded the doors entrances and exits. And went to an apartment to sleep.

13th January 2020

I woke up at 12:32 am, I was asleep for at least 4 hours.

I pulled out some instant cook noodles and some chips. I was only eating this junk because I was in a hurry to get out and complete my objective.

It was night, I knew it would be dangerous but it would be even more fun. I had my supper and looked into the Gamer shop, I wanted to buy new knives the state of both my kukri and bowie knives were in a terrible state after their thorough use.

So I bought 2 new knives the dirk knife, a sailor's fighting knife used by navies around the world, Russia most notably very good for stabbing but not so good at slashing, and a Reaper karambit a deadly southeast curved knife very good in slashing but not so good in stabbing.

I went out, the power to the city was not out so the street lights were on. It made things easy while moving to the next building. The entrance to the building was destroyed anyone could get in. I used the furniture stored in the inventory to block the entrance.

Then used my senses to locate the zombies inside the building and there were 26 of them but one felt different. I need to be cautious if I encounter that one zombie cause I think that one's gonna be different and might be more dangerous. By using my usual method I managed to kill 25 zombies and complete the quest. I earned my reward of 100,000 g points which is around $100,000, my XP points made me level up from 8 to 10 which made me earn 2 skill points and a new knife.

Which looked amazing, a Japanese tanto knife with a black colored blade that looked legit and very sharp, and the hilt was made up of metal. I picked it up and gave a few slashes in the air, it felt heavy but very strong. I looked at the stats the attack level was at 23 and durability 21. The stats were double compared to my other knives. So I can say this is a great knife.

I moved up to encounter the final zombie in the building. I found it in a room devouring a corpse, I slowly opened the door to take a look at it. This zombie didn't have any clothes, not only that it didn't have any skin and, the worse and disgusting thing about it was that it wasn't eating a human corpse it was eating a zombie.

Yes, a zombie eating a zombie, I took a step back. It heard me, it stood up and looked back at me. It had a human face, the pupil of its eyes was red and its teeth looked pointy and sharp. Claws were coming out of its fingers. I was looking at the most terrifying thing I have ever seen in my life, it was a completely terrifying monster. I got terrified and quickly closed the door and started to run away.
