Chapter 902 - Showing Hand in Danger
Chapter 902: Showing Hand in Danger (Part One)
“We have to think of a way! If this continues, we are all going to die!” A burly, middle-aged man shouted as he swung a double-handed sword. He was wearing leather armor and looked like a mercenary, and some vague warrior energy could be seen on him; he was close to becoming a One-Star Warrior.
As the sword danced in his hands, two zombies that were about to climb up the hill were chopped into pieces.
“We need to break open a path and get out as soon as we can. Otherwise, more and more monsters will surround this place in a few minutes. By then, we will all die!” a woman shouted; she had a very sexy figure.
This woman was wearing tight-fitting clothes and held two sharp daggers in her hands. The daggers moved around swiftly, and it was clear that she was going with the agile and nimble combat style.
Every time she moved, one of her daggers would penetrate the head of a zombie.
Although she wasn’t as explosive and robust as that man who was using the double-handed sword, she had immense combat experience, and she killed more zombies at an even faster speed.
At this moment, two young men had been injured, and they were moved to the center of the stone hill. They looked desperate since they weren’t far from death.
One of them shouted at their peers and asked them to kill him right now. No one wanted to become a monster and get their souls controlled by the evil energy, unable to rest in peace after death.
The other person was shaking in fear with his head lowered, and no one knew what he was thinking about.
“Damn it! This is all because of these two damn little girls! Anna, I already told you that we shouldn’t take these two kids with us! They are only burdens! Now, we are getting dragged down. If these two kids listened to us and didn’t cry and yell that they want to find their damn big brother, the herds of zombies in the area wouldn’t be triggered.” During the battle, a young man complained while standing behind others with a poorly-made magic wand in his hand. After a long while, he barely shot out a wind blade.
“It is already this urgent; why are you still complaining?” the muscular man who was swinging his sword scolded the mage.
In fact, this white-faced mage was the burden amongst the team. In the beginning, this team of survivors thought that with this mage joining them, he would bring them more safety. However, the truth was completely the opposite. This mage wasn’t that good at magic spells, and he was not so virtuous as well. When the team was battling monsters, he never used his full strength. However, when it was the turn to divide food, he always took more. In addition, he was mean and liked to point out others’ shortcomings, and he felt superior as a mage even though his combat strength wasn’t even higher than a stronger ordinary young man.
“Ok, Mono, if you think they are burdens, you can leave on your own.” The sexy woman named Anna was the temporary leader of this team, and it was clear that she wasn’t happy with this mage named Mono who always saved his strength. As she pierced the head of a zombie with one of her daggers, she looked back and shouted coldly while her brown ponytail swung in the air, “I already said that I would save every survivor I see; they have the Alanian Bloodline in them. These two little girls are no different.”
“You make it sound easy, but how can I leave now?”
Young Mage Mono was a little afraid of Anna. Rather than refuting, he quietly murmured to himself.
He wasn’t going to use all his strength and exhaust himself. Instead, he went back to casting magic spells casually and saved his energy. When no one paid attention to him, he opened the only magic item on him, a [Float Spell Scroll]. Streaks of green flames appeared around the scroll, and they soon engulfed this young man. This man’s feet already left the ground as he floated into the air.

“Quick and shot wind blades… Huh? Mono, what the f*ck are you doing?” That muscular mercenary who was fending off the zombies didn’t get any help from wind blades for a while, so he turned around and saw this scene. After a quick pause, he started cussing, “You are going to escape now? Coward! You also took away our food…”
After this cowardice mage used his magic scroll, he secretly grabbed all the food and clean water of the team.
In just a few seconds, Mono was already more than ten meters above the ground.
“Hahaha, you poor bugs won’t live on anymore. It is better to leave them all to me.” The young mage’s expression looked wicked, and he already decided to break off from the team. Therefore, he shouted back at that mercenary loudly.
“Coward!”
“B*stard!”
“Weak b*tch!”
This scene made everyone in the team shout in anger. The betrayal of their peer and being surrounded by many monsters made the feeling of desperation spread in people’s minds.
For a moment, they made a series of mistakes and coordinated poorly. As a result, two more people were injured by zombies. Even the sexy Captain Anna was injured; a zombie left a long scratch on her thigh.
With this opening, the herd of zombies swarmed up and rushed onto the hill.
A bit further away, a few mutated demon beasts dashed through the large herd of zombies; unwilling to wait any longer, they struck like lightning bolts.
Compared to mindless zombies, these mutated demon beasts had low-level intelligence, and they kept their animal instinct. They knew that if they didn’t make a move right now, the ‘meat’ in front of them was going to be divided by the zombies.
“Done! We are done!” that muscular, middle-aged mercenary cried in desperation. With the team’s current combat force, this situation was done.
In the center of the team, the two blonde little girls were terrified, and they cried and shouted, “Brother Leo!”
In the sky, Mage Mono already floated more than 20 meters off the ground, and he was absolutely safe and no longer afraid of the zombies and mutated demon beast.
Seeing the struggling people on the ground, he got a little excited and sensed an unnamed pleasure.
Suddenly, the zombies in the back of the herd reacted to something, and it was strange and unexpected.
Mage Mono looked up, and his expression froze.
Since he was more than 20 meters in the air, he had a better view of the area.
About 1,000 meters away, a dashing and ethereal white figure appeared, and he moved forward in the herd of zombies casually as if he were walking in a park. A pentagram-shaped light flashed below this figure in a seemingly slow yet fast rhythm.
Every time that light flashed, a large group of zombies and mutated demon beasts fell to the ground like the crops under the sickles of farmers.
This white figure seemed to be moving forward slowly, but he covered more than 500 meters in a few blinks of the eye. The sea-like zombies and mutated demon beasts couldn’t stop him one bit; he looked like a god who was walking in the mortal world.
Mage Mono was shocked, and his lips felt dry.
This was the first time that he saw someone walking in a big herd of undead creatures this easily.
“Could it be that this mysterious young man in white reached the legendary Moon-Class?”
When this man got closer, Mono saw that behind this dashing white figure, there was a boy who was about 14 to 15 years old.
This boy’s clothes were ragged, and he was wearing a pair of deerskin leather boots that was too large for him, making him look a little ridiculous.
The pentagram-shaped light that was flashing under the feet of the man in white didn’t injure this boy, and this boy was brought along by a powerful force and moved at the same speed as the man in white.
In a flash, this strange pair already got to the foot of the stone hill.
Now, the team of Alanian survivors who felt desperate on the top of the hill also realized what was going on, and they gaped as they looked at this white-robed, god-like figure.
This young man in white was about 20 years old, and he looked handsome and gentle.
Even though he had the majestic presence of a top-level decision maker, his faint smile made him look friendly.
The two opposing temperaments perfectly merged on this young man.
