Chapter 43 Solo Hunting!
[3 seconds]
[2 seconds]
[1 second]
[Return!]
-Boom!!!
I vanished from my original place back to where I was previously hit and turned around to see the ground slightly cracked where I was before.
There still wasn't anything visible in front of me, but I kept using the [Eyes of the Time Keeper] to check the time.
[8 seconds]
First things first, I switched the title...
[Title switched from: Zombie Destroyer to Health Freak]
[Health Freak: Your health regenerates at the rate of 10 HP points per sec when it falls below 40%]
I needed my health back up and then the pain was really messing up my senses right now.
[7 seconds]
[230/620 TP]
I still had enough time to break out of the situation… but the question was how exactly…
[6 seconds]
Something that will surely save me from this situation.
[5 seconds]
I then closed my eyes as I took a deep breath and relaxed myself a little.
[4 seconds]
I was bleeding heavily, but the healing effect was kind of soothing as well..
[3 seconds]
[Eyes of the Time Keeper!]
[Temporal Deceleration!]
I saw three seconds into the future and saw the attack coming from the front again. He was hitting my face directly this time…
And judging by the distance he traveled in the last 5 seconds… he was almost near me.
[Time Storage!]
I took out the shotgun I got from the top floor and aimed directly in front of me at my head level.
[2 seconds]
-Shot!!!
As soon as I did that, I saw blood pouring out of that invisible thing in front of me. Though now that his blood was flowing over his own body, he was more or less visible now.
-Shot!!
I shot again, pushing him back as it fell on his back and moving forward immediately, I stepped up on him before pointing the shotgun at his head and…
-Shot!!!
[D- Grade Zombie (Chameleon) Killed!!]
[+250 Exp received!]
As soon as I killed him I sat on the ground before placing myself against the wall.
'This is surely going to attract the zombies from below,' I sighed as I saw my health going up slowly 10 points a second.
For the next 5 minutes, I kept resting as I saw my health filling up to 2000 before stopping there.
[Title change: Health Freak -> Zombie Destroyer]
'Well… this was really unexpected,' I thought as I sighed in slight distress before taking out the first aid kit that Caroline put in my bag a long time ago.
Maybe having the system got to my head. I thought I was never going to be hurt, but… I guess you can never be too careful.
I applied the medication over my wounds before looking at my Health Points. They were slowly healing back by a point or two every 10 seconds.
I proceeded to take out the zombie core of that D-Grade zombie from his head. It was slightly larger than those from Lesser D-Grade ones.
"Well, at least it's better than nothing," I muttered before standing up and then… continued moving down.
I don't think things would change in going up… I will be only putting others in danger that even I can't escape properly.
I then slowly moved down the floor as I saw a couple of zombies coming towards me…
"Well… let's resume the party then," I chuckled a little before…
-Boom!
I pinned one against the wall and then absorbed its energy
[+3 Cronas]
The other was approaching me and I grabbed him by his neck before absorbing him, too.
[+5 Cronas]
Surprisingly, I could only absorb them from the neck and above and not anything below it.
Absorbing both of them, I moved downward floor by floor l, however, this time had my eyes on the timer on when I would be hit.
Floor 9 had 12 zombies.
Floor 8 had 45 zombies.
Floor 7 had 47 zombies.
Floor 6 to 3 had a total of 212 zombies.
After killing the zombies upto the 3rd floor, I took a break as I looked at the door in front of me.
While I had killed so many zombies, I ended up coming across 16 D-Grade zombies. However, despite their physical aspects being rather strong, there wasn't much more to them.
I mean, it was hard to kill them and I almost had to risk my life every time I fought with them, but it wasn't as bad as when it was that invisible zombie.
Though I was wondering how I should deal with the lower 2 floors.
[Floor 2: 107 Zombies Remaining
Floor 1: 141 Zombies Remaining]
I sighed as I checked my status once again…

My eyes looked at the darkness that almost took over the light as the night was arriving. So, rather than continuing, I closed the door on the 3rd floor before moving back up. I made sure to put a couple of pieces of heavy furniture, along with the bodies of the dead zombies, in front of the door.
I checked the time it would take the zombies to break the door
[3 Days: 12 hours: 2 minutes: 34 seconds]
Turning around, I slowly moved up as I looked at that skill,
[Skill Fusion]
[Would you like to fuse the skills [Active Time Generation] and [Passive Time Regeneration]?]
[Success Chances: 95%]
[Cost: 2000 Cronas]
I then pressed the 'Yes' button visible on the system screen.
[Proceeding to fuse two skills]
[Fusion will take 30 minutes to succeed]
[Time remaining for the skills to fuse: 29 minutes: 59 seconds]
The timer began the count down and meanwhile; I decided to slowly walk up the floors. As I walked up, I looked at the zombie bodies lying around me. Then my mind went to the comparison between a Lesser D-Grade and a D-Grade zombies… the disparity was large.
It was like a bicycle had been suddenly upgraded to a bike. It was kind of scary to think about what the next grade of zombie would be like…
As I was thinking and walking up the floors slowly and slowly. Time passed before I knew it as I reached floor 32nd and…
[Skill fusion succeeded!]
[You may choose one of the two skills:
1. Time Flow
2. Meditation]
