Chapter 347: The Diamond Rank

"We meet again. Well, I never expected that we were going to meet this soon. Nevertheless, I guess it is your bad luck but we have met now." The zombie that was standing almost 200 m away from Alicia stated in a calm and composed voice.

The voice was not that different from that of humans. It was just that, it was currently kind of raspy and deep at the same time.

Alicia looked at the figure in front of her. This was the first time that she was seeing this person, rather, zombie. She was wondering what the zombie was trying to imply by saying that they were meeting again, when according to her, this was the first meeting between them.

Looking at the slightly confused expression that was on Alicia’s face, the figure in front of Alicia touched his forehead. Then, he said in a low voice, "it seems that you did not see me. But I can remember clearly that time, when you came over with a helicopter. You took something that was not supposed to be taken. And, that is something that I have been trying to look for, for quite a while now. I never expected that I was going to be given information about the presence of that item here."

Alicia tried to remember the time that she had been with a helicopter. But no matter how many times she thought, she could not remember anytime that she had taken any item away from another person, especially so during the time that she was inside a helicopter.

"As for the military, I will deal with them later on. They were the reason why you were successful in snatching that item from me." The Zombie continued, without caring about what Alicia was going to say.

As the zombie spoke, suddenly, his eyes began glowing red. If any person from the military was present, they would immediately recognize this young man. During the time that they had met him, his eyes were glowing red as well. It was just that the intensity of the red light within the eyes was not as intense as it was now.

At the mention of the military, Alicia suddenly remembered the time that she had interacted with the military in a helicopter. At that time, back then, she had been together with a group of people that had decided to venture into the city, trying to see if they could find a certain person whom they had received information about.

In the end, they found a group of soldiers that were surrounded by zombies on the ground. Additionally, it was as if they were facing a creature of a higher level as compared to them, and it was clear that they could not handle it.

At the time, although Alicia did not come down from the helicopter, but nevertheless, they managed to rescue the group of soldiers. As for the zombies that were trying to latch themselves onto the helicopter, she had utilized the lightning element together with the wood element to deal with them.

After leaving that place, the military wanted to take a certain young man with them, but she had decided that they were going to take him. She had already realized that he was the one that was being targeted by the zombies.

As for the reason why he was being targeted by the zombies, that was the same reason why she had been looking for him. And, at that time, after she looked at his information, she understood that he was the person that was needed.

And right now, it seems that even after several months had already gone by, this zombie had not given up on looking for that young man. It was just that Alicia had already made preparations, making sure that the zombies were not capable of detecting where the young man was.

That was the exact reason why until now, the zombies had only managed to find the information recently. And Alicia did not need to guess much, considering that she already understood that the one who had given the information to the zombies was definitely Jeffrey.

It seemed that this Jeffrey possessed quite a good plan. He was going to make the zombies attack the territory, and after they had taken the young man away, they would retreat. In that way, the territory would have already suffered losses, and Alicia would be put under a lot of pressure.

But of course, the plan that Jeffrey was having was that this zombie that had currently arrived, was supposed to deal with Alicia, and kill her off. In that way, he was not going to be blamed for her death.

So, it was going to be easy for him to be able to usurp the power. As for the military, he had only convinced them to attack simply because he wanted to be in another direction when Alicia was being dealt with by the zombie.

Just like that, nobody would think that there had to be something strange. Why was it that Alicia was killed, while he on the other hand remained alive?

Unlucky for him, he had been killed even before the plan that he was having came into fruition. Otherwise, the plan that he had made was having a great possibility of succeeding.

Having already understood what the zombie was talking about, there was no way that Alicia was going to agree to something like that. She understood that the moment that she admitted that that young man was present within the territory, the zombie was going to do everything in its power in order to be able to get him.

"I don’t know what you are talking about. This is the first time that we are meeting, and we are of different races. There is no need for you to create excuses to attack us. After all, this is the time for the battle for domination." Alicia stated with a solemn tone.

The zombie raised his brows as he looked at Alicia. Then with a simple chuckle that exposed his teeth that were stained with blood, the young man shook his head and said, "If that is the case, then I will have to force you to remember what I am talking about."

Immediately after saying those words, the intensity of the red light within his eyes intensified. At this moment, practically, a person could see the eyes glowing even from a distance.

Alicia possessed a solemn expression as she looked at the figure in front of her. At this moment, information about this figure was displayed in front of her.

[???

Race: Zombie

Power Level: Level 2 Diamond rank

Skills: ???]

Alicia’s pupils suddenly contracted after seeing the information about the zombie in front of her. She had already known that it was a zombie considering that it was the leader of the zombies, just by the way that the zombies were acting around it.

She had also known that it was extremely strong considering that the aura that she could feel was stronger. So, the information that appeared in front of her was expected.

It was just that she could not understand why she could not see the full information of this zombie. Could it be that it also possessed something that was capable of hiding its information, just like she had done?

But that was not what horrified Alicia. Instead, what she focused on was the fact that the zombie was actually in the diamond rank. And it was not just at the first level, but at the second level. That was a power that she had not found or heard of during the time that she had been present within the city.

Even she herself was only at level 9 of the gold rank. It might be true that the human’s possess an advantage where they could level up faster, but there was one thing that did not change, they depended on killing members of the other races in order to be able to level up.

But so far, it was extremely difficult for her to be able to encounter a high level gold rank apocalyptic creature. That was the exact reason why she had only managed to reach level 9 of the gold rank due to luck.

As for Jeffrey, he was a level 7 gold rank mutant warrior. That was the exact reason why she had been able to easily dominate him. Not only due to the fact that she possessed dual affinity, but it was also due to the fact that she was two levels above him.

While Alicia was slightly dumbfounded, the zombie continued with its own actions. The light within its eyes had already intensified to the level that it almost look like there were bulbs in its eyes that were shining with red light.

In the next moment, the ground in the surrounding 1 km radius suddenly began trembling. And at some point in time, the zombies that were in the surrounding area had already retreated, leaving only the two within this area.

When the ground began shaking, Alicia finally came back to her senses. Immediately, she became vigilant. She was not sure about what it was that the zombie was trying to do, but she understood that it was not going to be in her favor.

She was not planning on being careless anymore in front of this zombie. Otherwise, she might just end up dead without even knowing how she had died.

Deciding not to give the zombie a chance to do whatever it was that it was planning to do, she decided to take the initiative to attack. Without hesitation, she summoned the lightning element that was already flickering around her body, making it to condense into a lightning spear. The spear charged towards the zombie with great momentum.
