章節 30: More?
Dilan was unwilling to return to the cafeteria after receiving so many status points and enough essence to level up.
Taking a look at Oliver, Dilan saw that he still seemed to be a little bit depressed about his loss of the Reinforced Stone Dagger.
Nevertheless, he was tightly gripping the rat horn daggers.
'How about we let him go all out? There shouldn't be any more of these Bronze monsters ahead, otherwise, they would have eaten each other, I guess.'
With a faint smile on his lips, he looked at the three nurses and Sarah.
"Sarah, can you lead them back? Oliver and I will continue to clear the front corridor."
A single look at Dilan was enough to tell them that he was just too excited to go back to the cafeteria and start fighting.
It was not just him but Sarah was unwilling to return as well.
She had yet to reach Level 3, and there were monsters on the left corridor that she could kill to level up.
Her information about these monsters was not a lot, but they would provide lots of essence and status points.
That was what mattered to her for now.
Because of that, Sarah looked reluctantly at Dilan as she tried to gain some leverage.
"But can't they just kill one zombie right now, when they're already here?
In the meantime, we can hunt together as well!"
Sarah tried her best to convince Dilan and Oliver, but it was entirely useless as the youngest of the three nurses exclaimed in shock,
"K-Kill what!? Nooo…please don't let any of these grotesque monsters even near us…."
After hearing her anxious voice, Dilan's eyes flicked to the young nurse for the first time.
She was younger than expected, had a small build, short brown hair and there were tiny freckles on her cheeks.
Based on her looks, she had finished school not too long ago.
As such, he didn't really expect anything grand from her.
But even the two other nurses were shocked when Sarah suggested that they should hunt, at least, one monster.
Dilan just looked at them with a shaking head and a glint of coldness in his eyes.
Only a moment later, he sighed deeply.
"First lead them away. I believe they will understand the situation later. "
Sarah frowned deeply after listening to Dilan's voice.
But she didn't dare to counter him, and just nodded her head.
Ailee and Pierre would also return to the cafeteria upon completing their task, and Sarah had to acknowledge that she wouldn't be able to fight for long as well.
The earlier fights against the ordinary zombies had already been exhausting, both mentally and physically.
Even if she didn't like that Dilan wanted her to leave, Sarah nodded her head.
"Alright, I will take them back. If there are some spare things that you come across, please leave some for me, hehe."
Trying to hide her slight trace of frustration, Sarah tried to laugh her bad mood off, and simultaneously requested some loot from Dilan as well.
Dilan didn't bother to try searching for the hidden meaning behind her words.
The Essence crystals of Level 0 zombies were of no use for him, and he would require more than 2000, just to level up once.
And after he leveled up, the number would increase exponentially.
Meanwhile, for unleveled Survivors or Ascenders of a lower level, the Essences he didn't require could be considered quite useful.
After he believed that he had answered Sarah in a satisfactory manner he turned around.
Pierre and Ailee worked quickly on the zombie corpses while Sarah led the three nurses to the cafeteria.
Sooner or later they would understand just how much the world had changed so there was no need of forcing them to do things.
Thus Dilan was not worried and walked past Oliver, while tightly holding his Reinforced Stone Spear.
"Let's go."
Even if Oliver didn't actively express his desire to continue fighting, this was not necessary. The two were a pair now- a team of fighters and Oliver would simply tail Dilan on most occasions.
It was not surprising to see him follow Dilan as they entered the front corridor.
"I leveled up!" Pierre suddenly exclaimed with a slight trace of joy, and he gave a bright smile to Dilan, who stepped in.
Dilan was the youngest amongst the survivor, excluding the young nurse, who would join the group of survivors.
But even then, his attitude and demeanor made others believe that he was more mature and reliable than others in the current times.
Nodding at Pierre, Dilan looked ahead a moment later before his eyes gleamed.
'Maybe I was wrong? Are there more strong ones?'
He could hear a deep growling from the intersection ahead, giving him hope that he could find zombies a bit further.
Accelerating his pace, he rushed ahead, passing by the closed rooms they had yet to look through as he emerged in the T-intersection.
With a quick glance thrown towards his right and left side, Dilan assessed the situation in both directions and saw rotten flesh, intestines, and bones lying around everywhere.
This was already odd but not everything he noticed.
'The horned rats are on the left,' he quickly concluded and realized that there might truly be some shortcuts or other paths between the left and front corridor.
Meanwhile, the right side showed them a similar scene when they had first spotted the front corridor and the Gluttonous zombie. Like that corridor, even this one had no zombies.
"Is there one more of those tall zombies? Why are they suddenly starting to eat each other?"
Dilan was not sure about the answer to Oliver's question.
Thus, he shrugged his shoulders and came up with a possible explanation.
"Maybe there are similar types of zombies, or some zombies figured that devouring their own kind will benefit them as well. Essence crystals should be useful for all types of living beings."
If the zombies ate the rats, they would be able to level up quite quickly as well.
Meanwhile, a similar scenario would occur if it were to be the other way around.
That was also why Dilan got more vigilant when he found stains of blood on the left side.
There were also some on the right side, but they were relatively fewer.
"Where should we go first?" Oliver suddenly asked, while tightening his grip on the rat horn daggers in his hand.
They were certainly not sharp, let alone durable enough to pierce through the skull of a level 5 monster.
As such, he was slightly nervous about his next fight, but before he could worry further, the growls of several zombies to his right reached him.
"There is your answer."
