God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse-Chapter 39 Perhaps... I Should Have Been More Careful?

By the time I felt refreshed, I stood up and found the guys were killing the Zombies faster than before. Perhaps because the number of Zombies decreased, it was easier for them to kill those Zombies.

There were no living zombies on the 35th floor where I was standing. Stretching a little, I began walking down to the next floor. As I moved, I kept an eye on the doors on this floor.

Behind each of these doors, there were people cowardly hiding themselves and I could only sigh at them… Well, human beings tend to protect themselves in times of danger rather than help another person out.

'Just what was I expecting from them, anyway?' I thought before moving down to the 34th floor, where I saw Caroline taking a proper nap and Alex barely holding against the Zombies.

My eyes turn wide open at the grim situation that developed on this floor…

White was pulling George away from the Zombies behind whom… Adam and Blake… they were nowhere to be seen… did they… ?

Not wasting time, I ran towards them as I shouted,"why did you guys not run back to the 35th floor where I was?!!!!" 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢

Clearly, they could have stepped back and regrouped rather than letting themselves be overtaken… then why? As I was halfway reaching them…

-BOOM!!!!

I saw a zombie dashing towards Caroline at a rapid speed, from the apartment door right in front of which she was sleeping. Alex focused on that Zombie with a concentrated gaze, but before that Zombie could touch anyone of them,

[Temporal Deceleration!]

I maxed out my Temporal Deceleration and ran as fast as I could, reach the Zombie faster than it could reach Caroline and Alex.

And once I reached that Zombie

-BOOOM!!!!

I punched that zombie towards that horde as hard as I could.

The zombie was pushed at the incoming horde and pushed the other Zombies behind as well. However, since there was no notification that he was killed, I assumed that he was still alive.

[Health Points: 4320/4500]

I saw my hand bleeding and my health decreasing by 180 points against my own attack.

Undoing my temporal declaration, I activated [Active Time Regeneration!] along with [Eyes of the Time Keeper]

While my Time Points regenerated, I kept looking at the timer in front of me that told me when I would be attacked by that Zombie again.

[7 seconds]

[5 seconds]

[3 seconds]

I then used the second ability of [Eyes of the Time Keeper] to check 3 seconds into the future and saw the Zombie attacking me from the left, rather than my front.

The first thing I did was put 3 Stat points of the 5 extra points I currently had saved into Strength, putting it up to 15, the current max my body can handle.

Then, at the last second,

[Temporal Declaration!]

At the exact moment I activated my ability, I saw that Zombie. I turned around and, once again, rather than using any weapon…

-BOOOM!!!!

I punched that zombie's head into the ground with all the strength I could muster.

[D-Grade Zombie Jumper Killed!]

[+250 Exp!]

I turned to see George and White still struggling against the Zombies and, with anger in my eyes, I moved forward. However, before I took another step forward, a small hand stopped me.

It was Alex. He looked at me with a scared look as he spoke,"brother… you look scary right now."

I looked at his scared face for a few moments before I calmed myself down a little, and then spoke,"sorry… I guess I let the anger get to my head. Alex, can you do me a favour?"

Alex gulped before nodding as his eyes got concentrated as he asked,"yes brother. Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"Use your power to push the Zombies away back to the 33rd floor. I want to take a break. Can you do that much for me, right now?" I spoke with a tired expression as I looked at my health points. f𝑟𝑒ewe𝚋𝚗૦𝐯e𝘭.c𝗼𝓂

[Health: 3640/4500]

Because my strength was more than my body could handle, I ended up hurting myself when I used too much of my power at once. Guess, I should balance my stats or else my own power will kill me…

My hand was more or less shattered at this point, but before the pain could hit me…

'Put 2 more points in the Constitution,' I thought as I added more points in my health and good enough, my health began healing slowly as well before it reached back to normal.

This made me wonder how the system exactly works? Increasing the constitution by 1 increases my maximum health by 250 points, also healing an extra 450 points and when I added another point to it, max points increased by 250 again, adding 475 points to it.

[Health: 5000/5000]

I turned around only to find Alex moving forward and punching a zombie with all his strength, pushing all the Zombies to begin, also breaking the wall at the edge, showing the clear blue sky beyond the wall.

Then Alex turned with a bright smile on his face as he spoke,"brother, is this fine enough?" before his eyes rolled over and he lost consciousness.

Before his body can hit the ground

[Temporal Deceleration!]

I ran towards him and caught him before he could fall on the ground and looked at him,"you did excellent." As I deactivated my ability,

As he fell asleep, I slowly put him to the ground and ran towards the door before I closed the door, stopping the Zombies from entering.

Finally, when I saw that it would take about 12 hours for the Zombies to break this door, I breathed in relief before I looked at the quest with a really exhausted expression.

[Side Quest: Save the survivor on 34th and 35th Floor

Total number of Survivors remaining: 52

Reward: +4 Stats]

The number of survivors decreased from 54 to 52. The reward decreased from +5 to +4…

'So… they really died, huh? Blake and Adam… 'I turned to look at George looking at me with eyes filled with tears of blood as he looked at me as if he was about to break.

White was there standing beside him trying to help him up from his emotional state and I pulled myself up again as I took Alex in my arms and moved towards Caroline.
