A few minutes later, the group stepped out of the club and walked through the city streets once again. Even though the number of zombies was still huge, the density of zombies was now far less, and their numbers had decreased a lot when compared to the state of the city a few days back.

"Shouldn't there be more zombies now? Do you guys have any idea what could be the reason behind this? Where are those zombies?" All three of them noticed the strangeness, and Pink asked the other two.

"I don't know. Maybe it's those demons. Maybe they are the ones killing the zombies?" Kun shrugged.

"It could also be that they are moving," Zain chipped in, "The zombies seem to be moving from place to place, but that could be because of lack of food as well. As in, there are not enough humans.

"We will have the same problem as well."

Before leaving, everyone had eaten the remainder of the flesh and the Brains to get their whole body function back to the peak. Unlike Shark, who was making them wait until the last moment, Zain knew that it affected their performance, and he needed the other two to be at their best.

If they were to run into humans this time around, well, it was safe to treat nearly everyone like an enemy.

For now, the group was headed back to Chinatown. Zain wanted to have a look at the weapons shop they had come across and hoped that there was a good strap and sheath to put his sword in.

While on the way there, though, they were frequently stopping.

"The one in the blue shirt." Zain pointed at a zombie with his sword.

"I guess it's my turn," Pink said as she ran forward and immediately jumped in the air, kicking the blue shirt zombie right in the head.

It was a strong hit, causing the zombie's head to crash against the ground, but it hadn't finished it off as it was attempting to get up. Before it could, though, she lifted up her leg and slammed her heel into the zombie's head, crushing its skull and killing it instantly.

Straight after, she used the knife she had on her that was strapped around her leg and stabbed the zombie. After a few seconds, she took out a crystal from the zombie's corpse.

"Good, it's Skittle and Cobra's turn next," Zain said.

While walking toward Chinatown, Zain was using his system to find every mutated zombie they could. Then, they would each take out the Zombies in turns. And whoever killed the zombie would keep the crystal.

After every hour, the group would find a place to rest, and that would also be the time when they would absorb the crystals. Pink was a quick learner, just like Kun, and the two of them said they could feel their bodies getting stronger.

So far from observing them, there were no drastic changes to their bodies, but they had only been consuming the small basic crystals. Still, Zain was also trying to get both Skittle and Cobra to level up as well.

If they took out the zombie together, they would both gain exp, including Zain. However, Zain would also fight a few mutated Zombies on his own, as he was trying to also get his Sword Mastery skill up.

Regardless of how much he used his sword though, it was going up incredibly slow for each zombie he had killed. He imagined it was because it took little effort and skill to kill them.

While walking through one of the streets, a mutated Zombie ran towards him, and in a single strike, he cut the zombie's head clean off.

The others stared in amazement upon seeing this skill. They were now getting used to Zain doing new things and things that they could never do or understand. It was to the point where they stopped asking questions.

'To think that these Mutated Zombies had given me a bit of trouble at some point.' Zain smirked.

[Horde member 'Skittle' has levelled up!]

[A skill point has been granted]

Ever since Skittle had gained the intelligence stat, his fighting ability had improved a little. He would no longer just charge in with his arms held forward. He was now throwing punches and would also try to avoid certain attacks.

Still, there was a lot of improvement to be made, and it didn't seem like he could use weapons as Cobra could. For now, Zain was sticking to his original plan.

[Strength: 1>>2]

He would continue to increase Skittle's strength. There was something quite humorous about giving such a small guy the power of a titan, and someday he felt like he would be able to use that to his advantage.

The group had walked through half of Chinatown and soon reached the store where Kun and Shark had found weapons last time. Suddenly, Pink had a bad feeling about this, and she hoped this would be the last time they would have to come here.

In the weapons room, there was more than the Pink and Zain had expected. It made them wonder what exactly this place was used for. It didn't take long for Zain to find the strap that he could attack around his belt, which let him put the sword on his side rather than his back.

He then was able to place a bag on his back for supplies that they possibly needed. On top of that, he also put a knife belt around his waist, with numerous small knives and daggers he could use in case of emergency.

As for Pink, she had found a particular pair of boots. They had a trigger that allowed one to kick and activate a small blade to come out from the heel and toe sole. Since Pink had been a taekwondo student for a while, she was good with her legs, and this was the perfect weapon for her.

As for Kun, he grabbed some ninja stars, as well as two long curved blades that looked similar to sickles. According to him, he was an all-rounder in the first place.

After gathering everything, they were free to leave the room, but just then, something scurried across the floor.

"ARGHH! There's something on my leg!" Kun shouted as he kicked and screamed.

When they turned around to look at it, the thing turned out to be a dog. It mainly had brown fur with a white pattern around its neck.

"Is that...a corgi?" Zain asked, not helping or alarmed by the situation.

Eventually, the dog was knocked off by Kun as he kicked it with its other foot. It went off in the distance but quickly got up again, and now they had a good look at it.

Its mouth was completely red with blood, and its eyes were hollowed out in a grey colour. This wasn't just a normal dog but a zombie dog.

[You have discovered a Mutated Zombie dog]

Kun was so angry he was ready to kill the little thing because the bite made several holes through his ankle, but before he could do anything, Zain stopped him.

"Move, this Zombie dog is mine." Zain smiled.
