Chapter 288 The power of a zombie hunter elite
After witnessing the fight between Carl and Anna, Wendy was nervous to go up next. She had heard that this was an assessment and it was one to see how useful they were. Anna had done quite well, and Kyle had shown great determination.
For her though, how would she be able to fare, it was clear that she wouldn't be able to win, so the other thought was, if she would be good enough.
'If I don't do well, or show I can do something, will the Dark Zombies get rid of me? If that happens, I'm sure that Zain won't do anything to stand up for me.'
"You're right." Zain said, as if he could hear her thoughts. "You are on your own on this one. You have to treat it like your life is on the line. Don't hold back."
Maybe it was the words she needed to hear, because it allowed her to take a few steps forward and enter the fighting area. Thanks to Zain's advice, Wendy did end up picking up a weapon.
It was a single short sword, on top of that she had a belt of small daggers around her waist as well. For most it was a strange weapon of choice. Why not use two weapons, or a great sword if they were to fight.
If one used a short sword, then in their other hand they would tend to hold a shield at least, rather than have it open like so, but there had to be a reason.
'Let's see why you were a high ranking member of the Zombie Hunters.' Zain thought with his arms folded, and was hoping that Wendy would be able to push Carl so he could evaluate the situation a little more.
The fight had begun, and Wendy was waiting there patiently for Carl to make the first move. She wasn't going to go in first and eventually he had decided to head in. In his hands, he had no weapons, with a fresh fight it was almost like a fresh start.
However, something strange happened that next to no one expected, as soon as he ran forward before he was even within range of the sword, Wendy swung it down. Some thought that she might have been nervous or misjudged something.
But a sharp sound was sent through the air, and Carl had noticed it. Lifting his hand up, his hand started to materialise the black armour around his arm. A clang noise was made as if two swords had bashed against each other, yet there was nothing that had touched anything at all.
Wendy, at that point, wouldn't let up, as the words that Zain said to her rang through her head. She continued to swing the sword and several clashes went against Carl, hitting him all over. He had materialised the black armour on both of his hands at this point, stopping the attacks from making a major hit on him.
'If I just keep hitting like this, he's going to find a way to break through.'
While swinging her arm with one hand, she had decided to gather something in her other hand. It was faint, but almost looked like a small tornado.
Slowly, she could see that Carl was getting used to blocking all of the attacks, and was inching his way forward, then when she felt it was the right time, she thrust her other hand out.
A small vortex of wind had come out, and went right for Carl's right leg. It had hit and pushed him back through the ground, but he was fine and still standing.
'My wind powers… they weren't able to knock him down, even though I aimed for just one leg, how much strength does this person have?' Wendy thought.
Although her plan didn't work out, she continued to swing her sword through the air, trying to buy time until she could come up with another plan.
'I see, so she has some type of wind powers, and they don't seem to be weak by any means.' Humfree thought to himself. For him it was the most entertaining match so far.
Instead of going straight ahead, Carl had decided to run around the side. Reacting quickly, Wendy had pulled a dagger from the belt around her waist and threw it out. Added with her wind power she was able to give it a quick speed boost.
Yet, Carl was able to still avoid It, somehow he was able to see it. Unfortunately for the zombie standing in the crowd, he now had a small dagger in his stomach. Luckily he was a zombie so it didn't do much.
It looked like Carl was planning something and Wendy didn't like it, so with her free hand she started to use her powers on herself, raising her off the ground. While in the air, she continued to take daggers out of her belt and throw them from above, but still Carl avoided them all.
"Do you think I can't get to you up there?" Carl said, as he bent his legs, and prepared for a jump.
add my powers to the swing of my sword, increasing the speed and strength and slice him down.'
Seeing this, Wendy thought this was her chance.
'This is it, if he comes for me, he can only come in one direction. I'll add my powers to the swing of my sword, increasing the speed and strength and slice him down.'
Before there might have been other thoughts going through her head, what would happen if she did win this fight and ended up killing Carl, but the advice Zain gave made her throw away all signs of hesitation.
With her free hand, she brushed it against the sword, and then Carl blasted off from below.
"This is it!" Wendy shouted as she swung the sword down with great power, and the power of the wind helping her out.
