Level up Zombie

Chapter 284 Your Place Here

?

On the top floor of the manor, there was a balcony that looked out onto the fields. Standing there with his two chained zombies by his side was Humfree. He had his hands behind his back, and he was watching everything that was going on.

The smirk on his face was wide and so high, almost touching his eyes.

"I knew he was impressive when I saw him at that place, but I never expected him to be this good. I can feel it, he might be the one that will help create a big change in this world. With him, there is a good chance that we can progress forward."

Not only did Zain receive the Diamond reward for defeating the stage 4 zombie. There were also the normal rewards that had come with it. This allowed him to level up a total of three times.

[Level 35]

With three level ups, there were three stat points, and this time, to go hand in hand with his strength, he increased his agility.

Agility: 16 >>> 19

Both of the stats went hand in hand with each other. Even if he had great strength, it didn't mean he could deliver a forceful punch like that of Carl. It only meant that he could lift things or push things harder than others.

However, for power, there needed to be speed on top of that punch to deliver a large blow. Honestly, he would have liked to increase his intelligence to enable him to control a larger number of zombies in his horde, but after seeing Carl, there was a competitive nature inside Zain.

'Let's go ahead and see what this reward is.' Zain thought.

[Diamond reward has been used]

[You may now receive your reward]

[15 Stat points have been given]

[Note: these stat points can only be used on one stat and cannot be distributed between different stats]

The reward was a huge boost to his personal strength. With most of his stats, apart from intelligence, hovering around the 20 mark, a 15 stat boost would almost double one of his stats. It was almost as good as the max stat reward at this rate.

What the real struggle now was, which stat it would be best to use it on.

"Man, no matter what they do, it looks like they can't find the crystal." Another zombie said who was relatively close to them.

They had dissected the whole stage 4, thinking that maybe it wasn't in the usual place. A crystal that strong would boost their strength multiple times. One person had given up looking though, and that seemed to be Carl, who was making his way back to the manor.

"Well, I guess that crisis is over, right?" Dart said. "So we should probably go back to what we were doing."

Dart headed back into the manor along with the others. He showed them where they could get food if they were hungry. There were no rules on rationing food out or anything like that, and that went for zombies and humans.

He then also showed them where they could relax and where they could practice fighting. Although he stated that most of the fighting was to be done outdoors as they didn't want to ruin the building they had.

Although most of the place seemed to be relaxed, there were some rules they needed to know about. Humfree would come to them if he needed them. If they wished to talk to him, then they were to ask a female zombie named Claire who would often roam around on the second floor, below where Humfree himself would stay.

Claire was somewhat the boss that ran the place when Humfree didn't, it seemed. If there were issues or problems they wanted to discuss, even ideas about what they would like to do, they would have to go to Claire.

According to Dart, she would actually say yes to most things. If a group wished to go out and hunt, then that was fine with them. There was no tracking, making sure they came back. The only time they would say no is if there was a lack of people at the base.

It seemed this freedom, this style of working, was what everyone liked about the group. They seemed to be more loyal. When Zain thought about it, where did the zombies have to go? Sticking together was the safer option.

Finally, Dart explained things like the sound of alarms that would go off if they were under attack or if there was a big meeting to take place. The examples he gave here were the plan where Dart and the other Dark Zombies were to be captured on purpose, and of course, the rescue attempt and annihilation of one of the Zombie Hunter groups.

"Alright, and here we have your sleeping area!" Dart smiled. "There are a lot of empty halls in this place. Apparently, they were used for wedding parties and ceremonies, so we have mattresses and beds and stuff, but it's more just for people to relax."

"Erghhh!" Anna raised her hand. She had a question to ask as she looked into the room, which had around 20 to 30 members already inside.

"Yes?"

"Is there a place for humans, or are we expected to sleep side by side with the zombies?" She asked.

"Do you really think you have a choice? Does it look like we usually take humans in?" Dart asked.

"If you're that worried, then you're just going to have to keep watch over each other during the night." Dart explained. "Anyway, it's best you guys get some rest and then get ready. There is an assessment that everyone needs to do here, so we can tell how useful you are and what your strengths are."

"Assessment?" Wendy asked.

"Yeah, Humfree wants you humans to take part as well. You remember Carl, that seriously strong zombie? Well, each one of you will have to go up against him. So get some rest, so you don't die."
