The Soul System in the Apocalypse-Chapter 72: Mutated Rabid Zombie

Both Adam and Henry were moving around the city, looking for specific targets they could use to level up. But still, they were not lucky enough to encounter any bronze rank apocalyptic creature.

As for Adam, even though it was true that the energy he was spending while destroying all the low level zombies that attacked them, he was still not happy about it. Additionally, he even felt that the energy recovery rate was not at the same level as the consumption.

And just as they were continuing with the search, they suddenly heard loud screams and gunfire coming from their left. At the same time, Henry also realized that ever since they had gotten to this area, they had not actually encountered a single zombie.

"Let’s get going." Henry said as the two of them immediately moved towards the direction that they were hearing the gunshots as well as the sounds of people screaming.

After surpassing several buildings, they came to an open area where they found out that there was actually a group of people that were facing a zombie. And, this zombie was extremely fast, not giving any chance to the people that were facing it a chance to react, before it killed them.

Adam saw that the zombie was actually going to bite another man, and he reacted efficiently. Since he currently knew that the territory that they were in required several people, he attacked.

The double-bladed battle axe in his hand was thrown forward. Adam had utilized all of his strength in the attack.

When the Battle axe was about to land on the zombie, it surprisingly moved, evading the attack. Even though Adam was slightly surprised, this was not the first time that he had seen an apocalyptic creature that was able to dodge his attacks.

As the two of them began approaching, the zombie looked at them. At the same time, it had already stopped making any more movements, as if it was cautious of something.

Jasmine and her group immediately used this chance to retreat. At the same time, they looked at Adam with incredulous gazes. After all, from the speed of the axe, and the ground that had already been destroyed by the battle axe, it was obvious that the strength of this person was not low.

"Thank you brothers." The captain of the group immediately thanked Adam and Henry. They knew that had it not been for the fact that these two people had come, perhaps they might have been massacred today.

Jasmine and the others also thanked Adam and Henry. But still, even though they were quite hopeful that they might be saved, they were not sure about the capabilities that Adam and Henry possessed. They were not sure if they could actually deal with the creature in front of them.

"Should we try to retreat?" The captain asked. He wasn’t willing to have other people risk their lives if there was a choice of retreating.

"Retreat? Are you kidding me? We have been moving around the city, trying to look for a zombie or a monster that is strong, but we have not been lucky to find one. And now that we have found it, you’re actually asking us to retreat? No way that is happening!" Adam retorted as he looked at the creature in front of him.

Jasmine and the survivors amongst the 20 men looked at him incredulously. After all, they had never expected that while other people were actually running away from the zombies, these two were actually looking for them.

"Adam, it is not like they already knew what we were doing. So, can you be a little gentle?" Henry slapped the back of Adam’s head, and said.

After that, he looked at the group and said, "I’ll be giving you a simple task. You can just stand on the side, and deal with any zombie or monster that approaches the battlefield. You can leave everything to us now."

The group was surprised. At the same time, both Jasmine and the captain really wanted to assist Henry and Adam, but they knew that their own capabilities could not deal any damage to the zombie. So, they could only retreat, and make sure that the battlefield was not interrupted by any zombie or monster.

As if the zombie had finished scrutinizing the two people in front of it, it immediately charged forward. Its speed was actually incredible, that it even surprised Henry. This was actually the first apocalyptic creature that he had seen that moved at such speed.

But nonetheless, he clenched his fist, and as the zombies head was approaching his neck, he punched forward.

Bam! Bang!

Henry’s fist collided with the zombies partly rotten face. And in the next moment, the zombie was blasted several meters backwards in the air. As for Henry, he maintained the punching posture, not moving even a single inch backwards.

Adam was not surprised as he was expecting something like this. After all, Henry was currently a bronze rank mutant warrior.

However, the same could not be said about Jasmine and the others. They had never expected that Henry was both strong and fast too.

Henry ignored the gazes that he was receiving from the group. Instead, he looked at Adam who was standing next to him and said, "I want you to land the final blow on this zombie."

At the same time that he stated these words, he focused on the zombie that was already crawling back to its feet.

[Mutated rabid zombie.

Power level: Level 2 Bronze rank.

Skills: speed flash (active).]

Henry’s eyes narrowed as he looked at the stats panel that had appeared in front of him. He had never expected that the zombie in front of him was actually a level two zombie.

And, what the heck was up with the name? A rabid zombie? Did that mean that this zombie was specialized inviting others?

Shaking his head, Henry focused on the zombie that was already looking at him, as if it was going to charge forward in the next moment. At the same time, he had never expected that he was actually this strong. freēnovelkiss.com

’Well, I guess this is to be expected. After all, I am not just anyone, but I possess a unique profession.’ Henry thought to himself.

Looking at the zombie that was still standing in its place, looking at him, Henry shook his head. The time that they had agreed was almost coming to an end, so, he had to hurry things up.

Pushing his left leg off the ground, Henry moved forward at an incredible speed. At the same time, he retrieved his sword from the idle space.

Since he did not want to waste much time with the zombie, he decided to go all out. As long as he beats up the zombie until it had no chance of retaliating, Adam could have a chance of killing it. He was trying to see if by killing the zombie, Adam would be able to reach the bronze rank.

When the zombie noticed that Henry was charging towards it, it roared before also moving towards Henry. And as it charged forward, it launched towards Henry’s neck.

’It seems that even though this zombie is actually mutated, it doesn’t have that much difference from the normal zombies. It still follows its instincts.’ Henry talked to himself as he slashed forward.

At the same time as he attacked, he shifted his body to the side, swiftly evading the attack of the zombie. At the same time the sword in his hand cut off one of Zombies limb.

And before even the zombie could react, Henry attacked again. This time, he aimed for the legs. And as if he was cutting vegetables, the two legs of the zombie chopped off easily.

As the zombie laid on the ground Henry went ahead and cut off the remaining limb. This way, the zombie could only lay on the ground, as it stared furiously at Henry.

Adam did not waste time as well. He had already retrieved the battle axe that he had thrown over. He came over and slashed towards the zombies head.

Puchi!

The zombie really wanted to dodge the attack as it could detect that there was danger, but there was nothing that it could do, as the battle axe landed on its head.

Even though Adam had swung the ax with his full strength, he was surprised that, the battle axe did not actually cut the head into two, but instead, it simply made a deep cut on the zombie’s forehead.

Snorting, Adam retrieved his axe once again, before aiming for the neck this time. This time, the axe was able to easily cut off the zombie’s neck.

As the black blood began leaking out of the zombie’s neck, Adam suddenly detected that changes had begun happening in his body.

At this moment, he felt that he was getting stronger, way stronger than before. And as he began getting excited, a prompt appeared in front of him.

[Congratulations on ranking up to the Bronze level in the berserker profession.]

Henry also noticed that there was a change in Adam’s aura. Even though he already guessed what had happened, he still asked, "You have already reached the Bronze rank?"

"Yes. Now, I am at the same rank as you." Adam replied happily.

Henry could only shake his head when he realized that Adam was acting like a little kid. Still, he could not blame him, considering that it was not easy for a person to rank up.

Jasmine and her group had been watching everything from the side. They have never expected that the zombie that had given them a lot of trouble and despair was actually dealt with so swiftly by the two of them.

Well, one was the person who defeated the zombie, while the other one simply went ahead and killed the helpless zombie.

Both Henry and Adam retreated. Just as Henry was about to speak, Adam beat him to it. "Do you guys want to join our territory?"
