Free Web NovelChapter 126: To Another Place
To speed up their assault on the 3rd floor, Theodore went there first to look for the zombies with powers. But, if the others only went up to the 3rd floor after Theodore killed the zombies with powers, then it wouldn’t make them any faster.
So, as soon as Theodore went to the 3rd floor, the group led by Cassian immediately followed to the 3rd floor. That way, they could also kill the zombies immediately while Theodore was looking for zombies with powers.
"Don’t spread out too much. We still don’t know how many zombies have powers on this floor," Cassian shouted to make sure everyone in his group heard his voice.
"Take it easy. We’ll maintain this formation."
"Those at the back, don’t get too far behind."
The people at the back of the formation nodded their heads and quickened their pace so as not to get too far away from the leading group.
The few people at the back were Chelsea, Roxanne, Geoffrey, and Neville, their source of information. The three had to protect Neville as usual; fortunately, they were used to this task.
"I don’t see brother Theodore. Didn’t he go too far?" Neville frowned when he heard Theodore’s footsteps in the distance.
"Is he that far away from us?" The curious Geoffrey asked Neville, who was seriously touching his ear.
"Yes. It seems like half the zombie population on this floor is chasing him," Neville explained with a horrified look on his face,
"I don’t know why I feel like those zombies have been targeting Theodore all this time," Roxanne said while recalling when Theodore was there with them at the back of the group.
"If you think about it, that’s the case. But, don’t worry, he’s used to dangerous battles like that," replied Chelsea, who had been listening to their conversation.
Like Theodore’s earlier information, the 3rd floor didn’t have too many zombies. Again, half of these few zombies were chasing Theodore, so there were only a few zombies the group led by Cassian was fighting.
Only a few times did Roxanne and company have to kill zombies that got close to them. Even though there were only a few zombies, they still had to kill them all to loot the items on this floor.
Meanwhile, Theodore found about six zombies with powers in the zombie horde that was chasing him. Theodore didn’t expect so many zombies with powers on the floor. freēwēbnovel.com
If you include the zombies he killed that time, seven zombies with powers are on this 3rd floor. And, of course, Theodore was getting more crystals at the moment; there were already 17 mana crystals on him.
"Should I try using one crystal to check its effect on me," Theodore muttered after successfully killing the powerful zombie he found.
He decided to ask the system about it to ensure that it was safe for Theodore to try using the mana crystal.
"System, is it okay for me to use this crystal?" Theodore hesitantly asked this to his system.
[The system could not confirm that there would be no side effects on the host after using the crystal]
Theodore immediately undid his intention to use the crystal, especially now that their group’s situation could have been quieter, and he needed to speed up the action so that they could leave this building tomorrow.
So Theodore decided to delay using the mana crystal. What worried Theodore was that there was a system inside him, and he didn’t know how the mana crystal would react inside his body.
"I better not use it right now. There will be a good time to use it." Theodore put the mana crystal back into his sacred dimension.
Since Theodore no longer finds the existence of zombies with power, he returns to where Cassian’s group was while bringing a horde of zombies behind him.
Neville, calmly in the back row, suddenly tensed up when he heard the sound of many footsteps heading towards them.
"Everyone, get ready! Brother Theodore is heading towards us with many zombies." Neville began to give the information his ears were hearing.
Neville didn’t know why Theodore returned to them with so many zombies. Nevilrried that Theodore was in such a difficult situation that he had to ask them for help.
"Is Brother Theodore having trouble, huh? I didn’t expect him to bring so many zombies with him," Neville said with worry clearly visible on his face.
"There’s no way Theodore is having that kind of trouble," Chelsea said, waving her hand to reject Neville’s thoughts.
"Is that so?" Neville glanced at Chelsea and saw the seriousness on her face.
"Take it easy. We have to prepare for the coming wave of zombies," Roxanne said soothingly to Neville, who seemed very anxious.
And sure enough, not long after that, Theodore was seen running from the dark hallway on the 3rd floor with a horde of zombies chasing him behind. The group, led by Cassian, who was ready, immediately helped Theodore hold back the zombies.
Theodore also joined the group’s formation so they could quickly adapt to the group and start killing the remaining zombies. Fortunately, Cassian and the others had already cared for the zombies left behind.
So now they only need to kill the zombies that Theodore brought from his place. With the help of their group members, they could quickly kill all the remaining zombies.
The 3rd floor included tools and household appliances. These items were much needed at the moment, so they immediately spread out to collect the items.
Their base was in dire need of items like these; even Cassian said they should bring many tools and household items like these. Not to mention, Theodore also heard that the base needed solar panels.
Theodore already knew that many people would need solar panels; after all, electricity was a handy resource in a world that had been destroyed like this.
Fortunately, Theodore bought many solar panels, and even now, his house can still use electricity thanks to the panels he installed before the zombie outbreak occurred.
This time, after Geoffrey learns Theodore’s secret, he does not dare to invite him to go around looking for goods with him. Geoffrey preferred to take Roxanne around, but he didn’t need to know what items they needed.
"Sis, what do we need here?" Geoffrey was confused by the items and didn’t know what they were for.
"I think we need tools in case something breaks in the house. We also need some curtains and other things," Roxanne explained while thinking.
Theodore, who had nothing to do, immediately interrupted Roxanne and Geoffrey’s intimacy.
"Why didn’t you guys invite me?" Theodore said while embracing them both from behind.
Geoffrey looked surprised when he heard Theodore’s voice from behind his back.
