Chapter 21: Level 3.

'What the—I'm so powerful now? It's unbelievable...'

Seeing how she has just effortlessly knocked down a level 2 zombie just like a piece of trash, Ning was so stunned that her plump little body trembled uncontrollably.

'Kukuku-muahahaha! Yes!'

At this moment, Ning's pride was boosted through the roof while her expression was hard to describe.

Indulged with her newfound strength, Ning retreated, keeping a distance between her and the zombie, and barked arrogantly. Not afraid of drawing attention to herself.

Total narcissism!

"Woof! Woof! Woof!" (Tremble before my paws, you lowly mongrels!)

After swiftly evading a zombie's violent attack, Ning immediately released a skill.

'Die for me—Fireball!'

And just like before, the explosion blasted another zombie's head off in black smoke.

<Ding!>

<You have killed a Level 2 Zombie!>

<You have gained 2 experiences!>

<A (F) rank Mana Crystal has been dropped.>

...

Shortly, amid her battle, Eggie's voice sounded as several notifications appeared.

<Ding Dong!>

<Due to a specific repetitive action, a skill was created.>

<This is an additional function of the system which I forgot to tell you, so don't ask any questions. ;) >

<You have learned the passive skill Evasion!>

...

[Skill: Evasion] (Passive) (lvl 1) (F)

Description: permanently increase the user's movement speed by 2% and +1 to Agility.

'Nani?? I could learn a skill just like this? Does that mean I could also learn other skills? What the hell! Does that mean I wasted 3 of my precious System Points?'

'A guide! I need a fully detailed guide right now!~'

Ning was surprised by Eggie's new notifications.

However, now is not the time to get sidetracked. The zombies continued with their offense as she dodged and counterattacked with multiple scorching fireballs. The hoarse growling sounds kept lingering in the background and the far distance.

It seemed that Ning's loud noises had drawn many zombies toward her direction.

With the additional points in Magic, the fireballs seemed much bigger and destructive than before.

Fortunately, with 20 MP, Ning could use Fireball ten times continuously; hence the situation was manageable as she never physically confronted with the zombies.

'Well, you hit some and missed some. It's perfectly normal.'

Ning thought, seeing a few of her attacks missed. Yet, she wasn't too worried. If she were out of mana, she would snack on the few Mana Crystals lying on the ground.

After eating two Fireballs to the head, another zombie fell to the ground. This one seemed to be tougher.

<You have killed a Level 3 Zombie!>

<You have gained 5 experiences!>

<A (F) rank Mana Crystal has been dropped.>

<(F) rank Warrior's Old Boots has been dropped!>

...

<Ding!>

<You have consumed an F grade, Mana Crystal,>

<You have recovered 10 Mana, and every ten seconds, you will regain 1 Mana for the next one minute.>

...

After killing a total of seven zombies, five level 2 and two level 3 zombies, Ning's experience bar is fully filled before a golden light flashes on her body. The spectacular pleasant feeling once again enveloped her little body.

'Tsk! Is this what it feels like to get high?'

<Ding!>

<You have level up!>

Thrilled, Ning proceeds to spend the additional attribute points without any hesitation. She couldn't think of any good reason to save them for later.

And just like before, she put 2 points into Magic and 1 for Intelligent. She could kill even more higher-level zombies with more firepower, and her leveling speed would also improve.

'This is like killing ten birds with one stone. Haha.'
