章節 36: Plate-Armored Zombie
Albert returns from his scouting. As soon as he returned to his group, Albert said everything he saw.
"There are seven people?" Wiley asked. "And one of them is the strong man you said that time?"
Albert nodded "Yeah. And I don't think his companions are weak either."
They were all silent and lost in their thoughts.
"You do know that we will probably face more than one BOSS, right?" Leon said. His group mates nodded.
"There might have been two BOSS created since there were two groups in this area."
They pondered on what Leon had said. Then Rosie said what was on her mind.
"That may be true. But, we have no clear way of knowing for sure."
They know that this apocalypse is run by 'something' that is very powerful. For whatever reason, they don't know.
Whatever consideration 'they' put into making future developments was far beyond their expectations.
"How about we wait until they fight the BOSS? Once the BOSS looks weak, we can kill it," Wiley said.
They all stare at him. Wiley's face which did look like a cunning person now became clear.
"Doesn't that mean... we're going to take advantage of their predicament?" Lola said in a doubtful tone. Her facial expression looks uncomfortable.
"What are you saying, Lola?" Wiley looked at Lola. "We would indeed take advantage of their predicament. That's how we live in this messed-up world."
Lola wanted to say something. But then she had another thought.
What Wiley said had some truth to it. Was she willing to maintain the old way of life in a world that was already like this? That seems impossible.
"I agree," Rosie said. "If they are as strong as Albert says they are, then they should be able to take care of those two BOSSes."
"I agree too," Leon said.
"Sure," Albert said. "I almost suggested that too before Wiley said so."
Wiley grinned. "I'm glad no one wants to act like a hero in this group."
After they reached the agreement, they waited in a hidden place.
Albert was once again in the role of the man who carried out the furthest reconnaissance.
On Clyde's group side, they were still checking the place to confirm the threat they would face.
"I haven't seen the BOSS yet," Mona said.
"The notification says that the BOSS is in the building," Reed said.
"Fuck, does that mean we have to deal with the thousands of zombies lining up before we can meet the BOSS?" Mona gritted her teeth uneasily.
There are thousands of zombies as silent as statues.
They know that the zombies would immediately attack them as soon as they stepped a little closer.
"What should we do?" Asqa asked.
She brought her hands together in front of her chest and bit her lip.
Clyde who looked at her felt sorry for the girl. She looks so fragile.
Asqa's strength is completely unsuitable for her to be able to fight alone.
If Clyde hadn't helped her on the bus that time, Asqa would have been torn to death somewhere.
"You don't have to join the fight," Clyde said.
Asqa looked up at him. "But, that means I can't do anything to help."
"Your powers really can't be used to fight. That's a fact. But that doesn't mean you can't do anything to help," Clyde said. "You are a healer. So, heal the wounded."
After hearing Clyde's words, a faint smile appeared on her lips.
"Thanks. I owe you a lot," Asqa said.
This was the second time Clyde had heard someone's sincere thanks.
There was a warm feeling in his chest that he found difficult to describe because it was something he experienced very rarely.
Clyde is currently thinking, maybe having a companion in this apocalypse isn't too bad either.
But soon he quickly shook off that thought. Because he still can't trust someone easily.
"You have to remember that I saved you because you have the power of a healer," Clyde said.
Hearing those words, Asqa did not feel offended.
"I know. I'll try to be a good healer for you and the others."
Clyde did not reply to Asqa's words. He just stared at Asqa with a look that was difficult to understand.
*BOOM!*
An explosion suddenly sounded from the building. Following that, loud and disturbing roars were heard.
"GRRRUUUAAAHHH!!!"
They all stared at the building. Both Clyde's group and Leon's group could finally see the figure of the BOSS they had to kill.
The BOSS had a body similar to that of a human. However, its body size is probably five times the height of an ordinary human.
The strange thing is, the zombie BOSS has quite different characteristics and looks very dangerous.
It wears black plate armor that covers its chest, upper arms, and thighs.
The zombie was also holding an ugly shield that was round like pieces of steel glued together.
And in its other hand, the zombie was holding a cleave sword that was more than two meters long.
The zombies who were clearly the BOSS on this stage looked much more dangerous than the Black Ant Kings that Clyde was fighting at that time.
"I-Is the BOSS you fought back then like that too?" Asqa asked with a trembling voice.
She was unable to take her eyes off the zombie even though her eyes were shaking with fear.
"No No No. We shouldn't meet zombies like this. What the fuck is this?!" Reed said with a scared face that was almost the same as Asqa.
In fact, everyone in the group stared with fear and terror evident in their eyes.
Clyde wasn't as calm as before either.
The BOSS they had to kill seemed can't be hurt with the strength of this group alone.
'At this rate, I also have to join the fight.'
