20 Unknown Zombie?!
As darkness blanketed the land, Shane sensed the impending danger lurking in his territory.
"Cold!" he muttered, shivering as he raced towards his shelter.
Unfortunately, his Tier 2 Survivor Gear offered little defense against the biting cold brought on by the relentless rain.
His gears have burn and acid resistance but not cold resistance at all!
This sudden downpour escalated the already cold conditions of his area.
Just as he approached his shelter, a pair of glowing eyes near the Manor grabbed his attention.
'What?!'
As he continued moving forward, his A.I. Assistant finally detected the ominous presence.
[ 1 unknown zombie has been detected. ]
As expected, it wasn't one of the three zombies he was familiar with!
With this message from the A.I., Shane already identified the creature as the notorious Spitter Zombie!
Slowly closing in on the zombie, he observed its corpulent form with a bulging stomach, round face, and layers of fat around its neck.
Without a doubt, the fat zombie had also taken notice of Shane. Then, the fat zombie opened its mouth as if to take some air with his mouth…
However, Shane realized that it was preparing to unleash its toxic attack.
"Not good," Shane murmured, swiftly evading the impending danger by dashing to his side.
Pssstt~
With a sickening sound, the zombie spat a noxious green liquid, striking Shane's left thigh despite his attempts to dodge.
Fortunately, his Survivor pants boasted +15% Acid Resistance, mitigating the impact of the corrosive assault.
His pants were still damaged, but it didn't pass through his gear, making him uninjured from that attack.
Luckily, the Spitter Zombie couldn't just spit its acid endlessly… It would have a few seconds of delay before attacking again.
As he looked at the zombie again, he realized that it was just about to send another acid spit!
Shane quickly moved as he couldn't just allow himself to become an easy target.
Luckily, the 'casting time' of the Spitter Zombie was slow and Shane could pretty much predict the direction of the acid spit!
Psst~
Psst~
Psst~
To Shane's surprise, the Spitter Zombie made some sort of split shot, shooting three acid spits in three directions!
'You can do that?!' Shane didn't expect such a move, but he was able to back off thanks to his agility points.
Furthermore, he also realized that fighting in close combat against this zombie would be impossible in his current state.
'Well, you're so fat… You'll make a good practice target…' Shane thought as he swiftly pulled out his revolver while circling the Spitter Zombie.
Because it was too heavy, it obviously couldn't move quickly and could only turn its head!
Bang!
Shane fired his first round, narrowly missing his target as the bullet only grazed the Spitter Zombie's shoulder.
Undeterred by the missed shot, Shane moved forward and closed the distance, determined to improve his aim for the next shot.
However, he realized that this zombie could turn its neck 360 degrees!
Psst~
Another acid spit was thrown in his direction! Furthermore, the spit this time was a scattered one!
It covered a wider range than the previous shots!
Thankfully, Shane was alert during all this time and only had his jacket and pants hit by a few drops of acid…
'He's open!' Shane thought as he realized that the Spitter Zombie overexerted itself from that scattered acid shot!
Shane got closer and fired his gun!
Bang!
This second shot hit the Spitter Zombie's stomach, but it only stepped back as it absorbed the impact with its layered fat. It wasn't enough!
With this in mind, Shane used his revolver's item effect!
His third shot hit the Spitter Zombie again and this time, the bullet exploded and created a fire, burning the Spitter Zombie!
Shane felt that the fire was not enough, so he immediately moved closer.
As soon as he was only a few steps away, He didn't waste any time and fired his fourth shot, aiming for the Spitter Zombie's head.
He hoped to end the fight quickly and save his other bullets for an emergency.
Bang!
The fifth shot, which was also imbued with burn effect, hit the Spitter Zombie's eye, causing it to scream in pain and rage.
'What? You're not dying?!' Shane was shocked… Instead of dropping to the ground lifelessly, it became even livelier and started waving its hand and crying loudly!
Shane then saw the acid dripping from its mouth and knew it was preparing for a final attack.
As he expected, the Spitter Zombie spat a large blob of acid at Shane, hoping to take him down with it.
Shane dodged to the side, but the acid splashed on his jacket, melting it and burning his arm!
"Aaahh!"
Shane felt the pain, but he didn't stop moving away from the Spitter Zombie.
Luckily, the jacket took most of the acid's corrosion, and only his skin was burnt.
Shane then glanced at the Spitter Zombie and saw its massive body swelling up again.
'Not again?!' Shane thought as he quickly ran away.
The Spitter Zombie was expanding dangerously and he could easily guess what was about to happen!
He quickly took cover in the Manor and barely made it inside when he heard a loud blast of gore and guts.
Boom!
[ You have eliminated a Spitter Zombie. ]
Shane felt a wave of relief and satisfaction as he saw the message on his screen.
He had finally killed the Spitter Zombie!
But then, a realization occurred to him…
'Wait… If it blew up like that, what can I loot from it?'
