Chapter 135: Tyrant (1)
"I'll have to quickly leave this place and look for Feng. How did I end up here anyway?" Satella was searching around for her own belongings and searched for an exit. Perhaps because she never encountered such a situation before, she failed to notice something lurking in the shadows.
Even more surprising is that Satella failed to notice that there's no wound on her body after falling down from the cliff at least 500 meters tall. All there was is some sticky substance on her that was dried and flaky when she moves around.
But she eventually grabbed her gears and left the place through a door that wasn't blocked. Throughout what she was doing, the shadow never takes a step further to harm her but instead staying cautious until she left.
Coming out of the room, Satella was bathed with the afternoon sunlight. The first thing she noticed was the broken Luna Device on her wrist. It seems that the equipment failed to persist through the ordeal and ended up like this.
Not having the Luna Device assistance means Satella would have to pay attention to each step she made and each shot she fired. Even a hint of carelessness would result in her getting attacked and swarmed by the zombies in a flash.
The Centurion Rifle that could easily attract more zombies to her was placed behind her shoulder as Satella chose to move forward with the Phalanx in her hand.
She carefully moves forward and searches for the road leading downstairs. If there's a choice, Satella chooses to not engage with the zombie as the slightest sound or vibration would result in her getting swarmed by the zombies immediately.
…
Meanwhile, it was an entirely different situation at Zhang Qin Feng's side.
He was creating commotion wherever he goes. Because Satella was moving covertly without significant movement, Stein's sonar failed to detect her from this distance. They're actually just separated by a building.
But perhaps because the building was used to be a recreation and office block previously, it was built a little too seriously. The walls were thicker, which weakens the effectiveness of Stein's sensor.
[Fifty meters! Turn to your three o'clock direction!]
Stein continued to assist Zhang Qin Feng in his search for Satella. But the result was not that positive as he has thought. Even with Stein's support, his reckless action gathered more zombies to his vicinity. The longer it goes, the worst it becomes.
The number of zombies around his has increased to twice the number than before. It won't take too long before the word "overwhelmed" came to Zhang Qin Feng.
But right now, it was impossible to stop Zhang Qin Feng from going around and search for Satella. Out of the six Centurion Rifles in his Dimensional Inventory, he already dropped three of them because the weapon got overheated from constant firing.
[Sorry… It seems that the signal was not Satella either. This survivor died recently as well]
The system apologized as it was a fruitless effort again.
'Continue! Search for possible landing point Satella could have been. We won't leave without her today!' Zhang Qin Feng said. As his attention was taken away to reply Stein, a zombie managed to come close to him and tries to bite Zhang Qin Feng.
"Get!"
"The!"
"Hell!"
"Off!"
"Me!!!"
Zhang Qin Feng used the stock of his Centurion Rifle to smack the zombie's head before it successfully gets a clean bite on Zhang Qin Feng. Frustrated and angry, Zhang Qin Feng clenched his teeth together as he used the stock of his rifle to smash the zombie's head.
[User, please control your emotion]
Stein quickly responded. But it seems the response was not getting into Zhang Qin Feng's head as he started to fire his gun recklessly.
[User!]
This time, the call was louder. It wakes Zhang Qin Feng up from his trance.
'Hoo…' Zhang Qin Feng took a few deep breaths using the breathing technique to calm his mind again. He immediately felt some soreness around his shoulder and neck from losing his temper earlier.
'Stein, apply one Instant Recovery Spray on my body…' Zhang Qin Feng instructed. This decision was a must if he wanted to keep searching for Satella's whereabout.
Else, it would be a competition between his body and Satella. Either he burnt out first, or she was found first.
[Recovery Spray applied. Please stay idle for two minutes to allow the medicine to take effect]
[115 seconds…]
[95 seconds…]
[55 seconds…]
[23 seconds…]
[Alert. Eleven zombies are approaching the User's location. Get ready for sprinting once the countdown ended.]
[5 seconds…]
[Now, User]
Stein's warning came just a hint before the zombie tackled Zhang Qin Feng. Making sure that the zombie wouldn't get its opportunity to follow him closely, Zhang Qin Feng tossed a few Shockwave buttons along his path.
*BAM! BAM! BAM!*
The shockwave threw the zombies left and right. Some even smashed onto the broken vehicles on the side from the impact. But this was also Zhang Qin Feng's greatest mistake so far on this battlefield.
*Beep! Beep! Beep!*
A vehicle's alarm seems to be still working. The noise it created ended up gathering the attention of the zombies nearby. In a split moment, the number of zombies detected around Zhang Qin Feng tripled.
Furthermore, it was gloomier when Zhang Qin Feng noticed that a broken vehicle was thrown on top of the roof. This was the opening theme of a boss-monster arrival.
[User! Escape when you still could! A Tyrant is spotted in the vicinity! The system repeat! A Tyrant is spotted in the vici…]
"ROAR!!!" the roaring of the Tyrant deafens Zhang Qin Feng's ear as it spotted its target's whereabouts.
"Fu*k…" Zhang Qin Feng cursed as he exchanges a glance with the famed Tyrant, known as the boss of the zombies.
[User, please move]
Stein continues to stress the importance of Zhang Qin Feng leaving this place right now.
'Move… Do you think I'm capable of escaping a monster 1.5 meters taller than me in a sprint?' Zhang Qin Feng chuckled. Even he doesn't believe that he can sprint faster than the Tyrant.
"Is the serum ready?" he asked.
