Chapter 25 Level 8
Chapter 25 Level 8
[Skill Fusion(Special)(Level: Max)]
[Allows the user to combine two skills into one at the cost of Cronas and Zombie Cores. Note that the fusion depends upon the compatibility between two types of Skills.
Can be used only once every 24 hours]
I saw that skill and it confused me even more. What were Cronas? I tried thinking of what they could be, but honestly, nothing came to my mind before I put it at the back of my mind and then wondered about the other parts of the skill.
'So if I get these Cronas and Zombie Cores, I can fuse two compatible skills? Hmmm… that sounds nice unless I get a skill that is worse than both of them… well, let's see it when I find the Cronas,' I thought before looking around to see if there was anyone around.
I searched most of the rooms and as I reached the last room… There was a boy, unconscious, holding his baby sister in his hands tightly.
"That kid is going to turn into a zombie. A zombie managed to scratch him when we were escaping to the top," I heard an aged voice coming from the other corner of the room.
I turned towards it and found an old man who looked like he was in his 60s, sitting there trying to solve a rubix cube. He didn't seem bothered by anything at all… which was peculiar, given there was a dying child there and I was with a gun standing in front of him.
"So, are you going to kill him after he turns into a zombie or before it?" that aged man asks and I turn to look at that kid for a few moments before

'How long before he turns into a zombie?'

'How long before he can adapt to the zombie genes?'

My eyes open up wide a little before I close them and touch his head and increase the time of his zombification.
[Basic Time Manipulation]
[18 hours 45 minutes]
'Well… let's try something else too, shall we?' I thought before turning to Caroline and speaking,"Can you try to pass your energy inside his body? Do it a bit slowly and start with a minute amount at a time."
Caroline nods at me and tries to pass her energy on to that kid slowly. Luckily, she succeeds in one attempt and soon I saw that kid's constitution and other stats rising back to normal.
'How long before he can adapt to the zombie genes if he has the Cessation Energy?'
[4 Days 3 Hours 2 Minutes]
It was still not enough, and I closed my eyes before thinking a little before turning to that old man and saying," do you have anything like a grenade or something?"
That old man looked at me, baffled, before speaking,"what are you crazy or something? Who carries a grenade with them?"
"Ah! I guess people don't," I thought before asking again,"do you have anything that will blast off if thrown down?"
That old man narrowed his eyes at me before pondering a little and speaking,"the emergency generator has some fuel in it, and if thrown at a high speed, it can create a blast. However, that is going to take a lot of energy and time… just what are you planning?"
I nodded at him before turning to Caroline and speaking,"don't stop pushing your energy into his body," and then I pulled him up over my shoulders along with his baby sister and then turned to that old man,"can you guide me towards that generator?"
Not questioning my actions, he took me towards the generator and I nodded at him before looking around, only to find cans filled with gasoline in them.
Emptying all the gasoline over the generator, I took the whole thing near the edge of the terrace. I looked down to see a horde of zombies standing there, though they looked more like crawling ants and were barely visible.
Soon…
I threw the generator down, making the old man and Caroline look at me with a confused look and just after a few moments
[Ding!]

I saw so many messages flooding after the blast occurred and I nodded at it before looking at the required Exp to upgrade to the next level
[Level 7: (9555/10000)]
'Hmmm… I need a bit more,' I thought before looking at that man and asking,"is there anyone else present on this terrace?"
He shook his head before sadly smiling and speaking,"they were killed by zombies… and monsters."
I sighed before nodding at him and speaking,"let's get down as fast as we can or else we won't be able to save this kid."
I spoke before beginning to walk down immediately. That man looked like he had a lot of questions, but he kept it in and simply followed us. While Caroline and I were holding the boy, I gave the young baby girl to that old man.
She was still healthy and pretty much alive, so I was glad I made it in time.
From that point, I started hurriedly hunting the zombies on the lower floors as much as I could. However, sadly, I got only a few of them. As for throwing objects, I did that too as well… much faster than before.
After another 2 hours of hurried struggle, I finally cleared the 60th Floor and…
