Chapter 90: Nightmarish Creature (1)

The Tier 5 Mutant Slime Zombie didn’t have a health bar, which made everything much easier. Such zombies died much faster, even if they had a huge amount of stamina, at least they died really fast.

Indeed, fighting a zombie with a health bar is often the easiest thing to do, since otherwise it’s impossible to tell when a zombie or mutant zombie will run out of stamina.

In the end, Light’s ability gave him both an advantage and a disadvantage. If a zombie had a health bar, even if you shot it in the head, it had a chance of not dying, and vice versa when it had no health bar.

After almost two minutes of deep-fire release, the mutant slime zombie seemed to have stopped moving.

The slime zombie was literally melting, Light felt as if an opportunity had come his way, as if every hair on his body was trembling with excitement. The adrenaline in his body was pumping so perfectly that there were no words to describe it.

Even if it was involuntarily, he raised the flamethrower to his inventory and then knelt down, completely defenceless, even though the soldiers around him were attacking and protecting him every second, Light was just looking at the mutant zombie body on the ground as if in a trance.

As the slime on the mutant zombie’s body dispersed, a normal human body was visible. A healthy body whose flesh had not decayed like a zombie. When Light checked the pulse of the body, he found that the owner of the body was naturally already dead.

However, he took out a bottle from his inventory and then slowly poured the slime into the bottle.

[Poison Slime Bottle (x1) obtained].

When Light saw this system window, he tried to understand what was going on, but he couldn’t understand anything and started to check the properties of the item:

[Poison Slime Bottle

It is a poison strong enough to melt the bodies of zombies and give them a muscle crisis. It has no effect on humans].

The moment Light read this characteristic of the item, he reached into his inventory and took out dozens of bottles.

He didn’t stop until he filled every slime mass around the mutant zombie’s body into the bottles, and when he was done, he removed the mutant zombie essence from the body with the help of a knife.

He had another Tier 5 Mutant Zombie essence in his hand, and there was still another Tier 5 Mutant Zombie on the battlefield.

What Light didn’t realise was that this Tier 5 Mutant Zombie had nothing to do with the one he had just fought. This zombie he would encounter would be a mutant zombie that he could handle with great difficulty.

Nevertheless, Light and the group of soldiers behind him continued to advance without realising this.

A group of up to 150 soldiers continued to move forward while their leader was in front of them. Rather than hiding behind his soldiers like most leaders, Light chose to face all the danger from the front.

One after another, gas bombs were being released. Every two hundred paces another dozen bombs were released.

In just twenty minutes, a mountain of zombie bodies had formed. Hundreds of zombie corpses and dozens of mutant zombie corpses had been collected by the soldiers.

The group was now incredibly close to the centre of Newtown.

The barricades and the wall were visible to the naked eye. However, the reduction of zombies around the barricades and the wall revealed the possibility that each of them was inside.

The group started to advance at full speed.

They were running in every sense.

After a short time, they entered the entrance area of the centre barricades and walls and the hellish scene was revealed.

Dozens of dead people were scattered around, it was really a terrible sight.

Light’s orders were clear, no zombie was to survive.

Light’s soldiers were scattered around. The people who were still alive were fleeing and the soldiers were helping them.

He had a completely different plan. He told Pacifica and the others to protect their surroundings and started running directly to the house in the centre, where George and the others would be nearby.

He didn’t know that George and others would be somewhere else, after all, they needed to protect other places too.

After only ten minutes of running, he managed to reach the area.

A jet-black body was standing in front of him, with white eyes looking directly at Light. Everything happened so fast, this black body turned towards Light so quickly that he felt his soul being sucked away.

Light instantly used his inspection skill, but there was nothing he could see:

[Tier 5 Mutant ##### Zombie

Health: 341793/341793

There is no information about this zombie].

A huge health bar stood in the system window Light saw, a blood-curdling sight.

Even though Light shivered to the bone, now was not the time to be afraid, he was not the stupid and scrawny boy at the beginning of the apocalypse, but a grown and strong man.

Without thinking twice, he directly activated his Fade ability. A skull appeared on the mutant zombie.

The skill Light had used worked and the Mutant Zombie was weakened.

However, without thinking, Light reached into his inventory and pulled out the Beretta 1301 Tactical Mod 2 shotgun again.

Without waiting, he fired a shot:

"BANG!!!"

The bullets scattered and hit the jet-black zombie, but nothing changed.

Light was trying to understand what was going on, the weapon in his hand was really the most powerful weapon that could be used at close range, at least the one Light had.

Of course, it wasn’t a rocket or anything, but at least at close range, it was the best.

The face of the black zombie suddenly began to change. It was as if the mutant zombie was mocking Light as if there was a smile on the mutant zombie’s non-mutant face.

Even if the mutant zombie had no weakness, even if the system knew nothing about the mutant zombie, at least the mutant zombie had a health bar, and that was enough for Light.

He could win this duel even if he was about to die.
