Chapter 29 Danger Lurks (2)
Kain's eyes looked intently at the Zombie, one hand holding a dagger, the other hand quietly launching [Thunder Bullet].
A ball of lightning condensed in front of his palm, then shot towards the Zombie at extremely fast speed. It's just that this Zombie is really not ordinary at all, I just saw this thing tilt its head slightly, its entire skinny body moved to the side, just in time for the ball of lightning to pass by.
At the same time, the Zombie's vision was also locked on Kain, his location was revealed.
"Is this thing that sensitive?"
Kain was a little surprised, and the monster attacked. Not only does this Zombie possess superhuman reaction power, even the movement speed of this Zombie is extremely outstanding, so much so that Kain feels like he has met that Reaper wielding a scythe again.
With a sound like metal colliding, Kain was pushed back. He frowned tightly, not only the speed, but also the skin that seemed to be glued to the Zombie's bones was unusual.
The thing's skin was very tough and hard, and when Kain used the dagger to cut into its flesh, it was like he was trying to use a dull knife to cut off the cow's tendons.
"In that case..."
Kain pulled out a second dagger.
[Enhancement Body], [Enhancement Tool].
This time, Kain was the one to rush forward. Thanks to the protective cloak made from Reaper's skin, he can ignore some of Zombie's unimportant attacks to focus on confronting this thing. Kain constantly tries to attack dangerous locations such as temples, throats or eye sockets. However, this Zombie also has very impressive defensive instincts, absolutely not allowing Kain to attack those places.
The Zombie's attacks became more and more ferocious, and Kain was pushed further and further back. Even though he had the support of [Enhancement Body], Kain's physical constitution was still no match for the monster.
A little sweat ran down his forehead, Kain began to feel tired, his arm holding the knife began to feel numb. But Kain's eyes were still extremely calm, without the slightest wavering.
Just like that, Kain was pushed back and hit a tree trunk. Seeing that its prey was cornered, the Zombie jumped up and pounced on Kain. That thing actually didn't know, it was all part of his plan.
This Zombie is very sharp, that is indisputable. Therefore, Kain did not intend to use magic skills to attack this thing directly. Which will take advantage of Zombie's hunting habits.
When the Zombie pounced on Kain who was close to the tree trunk, he suddenly jumped aside, at the same time, the prepared [Thunder Summon] descended on the tree trunk at the exact moment the Zombie rushed into the tree trunk.
The monster was hit, its entire body moved slowly because it was paralyzed. Taking that opportunity, Kain launched a [Thunder Bullet] towards the Zombie, completely immobilizing the monster. [Thunder Bullet level Max] was not something this Zombie could fight against. .
Kain approached, two daggers immediately pierced the Zombie's eye sockets, killing it quickly.

Having dealt with this monster, Kain quickly left. He couldn't help but worry about his two teammates. If those two faced a monster like this, could they win?
Kain's worries are actually happening somewhere else.
The two sisters Myra and Mera are running for their lives, because behind them is being chased by a Zombie.
"Myra! This is not in the notes!"
"I do not know!"
It seems that the final notes are not omnipotent but there are still omissions. Dungeon explorers who are even a little weak are afraid they will die at the hands of this Zombie.
With low-class magic skills belonging to [Earth Magic], [Earth Wall]. Mera is able to temporarily hold the monster back, but this doesn't last too long.
The physical strength of the two sisters is limited, but the Zombie seems to be tireless.
Right in the moment of danger, Myra with her keen senses recognized a symbol marked on the tree.
The two of them met again quite early, and at the same time, the two of them had never been to this area. This means that the symbol on this tree was left by Kain.
"Mera, this way!"
She quickly led her sister in the direction the symbol left. Seeing that, Mera could only continue to use [Earth Wall] to make the Zombie slow down again.
After running for a while, Myra saw the second symbol, which made her feel even more hopeful that Kain was nearby.
However, Mera who was behind suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange. Before she could react, a cloud of Slime suddenly collapsed from the top of her head, engulfing Mera in the sticky liquid.
"Mera!"
Myra was horrified and hurried back to pull Mera out of the Slime group, but the Slime group was like glue, Myra couldn't pull it out.
Once slime catches its prey, it will suck out the air to kill the prey, then slowly use liquid to digest the prey.
This means that Mera only has a few minutes left to live, and one minute before losing oxygen and falling into a deep coma.
She tried to activate magic, but her concentration was affected, causing the magic skill to fail.
Myra raised her hand towards the Slimes, intending to destroy the Slimes to save her sister. However, it is very difficult to kill the Slimes while not injuring Mera.
"You try to endure a little!"
Myra took a deep breath, then sparks began to appear around her.
[Fire Wave].
A wave of hot fire spread out, covering the entire Slime crowd, even the surrounding trees could not escape the fate of being burned by the fire.
The Slime quickly melted away, allowing Myra to pull Mera out of there. Mera coughed loudly, her mouth and throat were filled with slime liquid.
Before both sisters could rejoice in surviving the accident, the screaming sound of the Zombie approached. Mera is temporarily losing her fighting power, forcing Myra to only carry her sister and run away.
