Level up Zombie

Chapter 254 No Escape

?

The screaming from Jade was deafening, she couldn't even feel any pain in her hands, but as she looked down and the blood continued to drip… the sound just continued to come out from her mouth.

That was until Skittle decided to act. Seeing how Zain had already joined the fight, he was sure that all of the Zombie Hunters would decide to act out now. At the same time, after cutting the hands off from Jade, Zain was already running past her going to the others.

"You need to shut up for a bit!' Skittle shouted, lifting Jade by the back of her shirt into the air and slamming her into the ground. It was a heavy hit that made her cough and immediately Skittle placed his hand over her mouth, keeping it shut.

He needed to make sure she was unable to use her fire powers, and he had good grip strength anyway.

'I can't lie, I enjoyed that a bit. Anyway this should take her out of the fight. Someone like her wouldn't try and bite me.' Skittle thought.

There was a risk of one turning when taking in the other's blood, superhumans like the Zombie Hunters were more resilient to turning but it didn't mean it was impossible.

Terry was dead, and Jade was out of the fight, but the Zombie Hunters gathered around. If it was just one person surely they could focus their attacks toward them. At least that's what Cleve thought.

Almost immediately, running from the back, three more had joined the fight. Pink, Kun and Kelly. Not only that but they were unmatched in strength and skill, as they kicked, punched, and knocked out or broke a few of the bones of the Zombie Hunters. Before Cleve could even do anything, he had been kicked, his leg broken on the spot and hit on the face as he went tumbling to the ground.

He looked around him and none of the Zombie Hunters were left standing.

'What is going on here, are they all superhuman, or are they all zombies? How can so many zombies that can speak and do things like these have gathered in one place?' Cleve thought.

"What do you want to do?" Pink asked, looking at those she had just beaten up on the ground. "We kept them alive in case you wanted to turn them. They could make pretty good Zombies."

"No." Skittle said. "Once they find out about what happened, they could send more of them to the area. They might even launch a full scale attack. The best thing to do is keep them and take them back to the school with us. Then we have some bargaining power. Besides, we could use them to find out just how strong the Zombie Hunters have become."

What Skittle said made a lot of sense, and the group were happy to have someone like him on the team. It helped them think ahead a bit. Although Zain was good at making decisions for the present, sometimes he was lacking when it came to thinking about the future.

'A school… if they're going to keep the rest alive, then this is my chance to get out of here.' Cleve looked at the others, he wanted to say sorry to them. Sorry that he wasn't a better leader.

At the first sign of trouble they should have gotten out of there and now he felt responsible for having put them in the current situation, but this was the only way to secure their survival.

With a snap of his fingers, Cleve's body completely disappeared from the area. He was gone.

Seeing this, Zain stomped his foot on the ground.

"Damn it, I should have known that there could be more than one of them with that power." Zain said to himself. "It would have been better to just get rid of them all."

Skittle felt partly guilty because it was his decision, and now the enemy would know about them. Who knew how they would react once they learned of this information.

"I guess we should go ahead with Skittle's plan, and keep them as hostages." Kelly said.

Zain then walked up to Jade, and placed his sword right above her chest where her heart was.

"No, kill the ones whose powers we don't know about. It would be a risk to bring them back. They could break out or take out any of us when we know nothing about them." Zain ordered.

Zain gestured for Skittle to remove his hand from Jade's mouth.

"Wait what are you doing?" Jade asked. "You said you would keep us hostage right, and you already know my power."

"We already have plenty to choose from." Zain said. "And anyone but you deserves to live in this world."

From the looks of it, Jade was building something up in her mouth, ready to spit out flames, before she could Zain had pushed down on the sword, stabbing right through her heart with a speck of blood landing on his face.

——

With his powers, Cleve had teleported back to the base of the Zombie Hunters, he was on the ground and could barely move due to his broken legs. Immediately other hunters noticed him.

"Hey, get someone with some healing powers to help!" One of them shouted.

"Cleve what happened to you, how did you end up like this… where are the others?"

The hunters were a bit worried, it had been a while since a group had come back like this. Usually, if they were in a tough situation they could just escape before things got bad, and Cleve's team was quite strong as well.

"Get the boss." Cleve said. "He needs to know, he needs to know about these Zombies."
