Mutant Core[2]

[Ace POV],

Focusing my attention on the zombie in front of me while ignoring the explosions that could be heard in the distance, I tightened my grip on the blades in my hand and approached cautiously towards Chris.

Chris could land a strong attack on the zombie just now because it was distracted and unable to really defend itself.

Looking at the considerable amount of black blood streaming out of the zombie's attacked hand, I recognized that even if the zombie's defense was good, it was only due to its level and speed that it was able to prevent us from landing a solid hit on it.

But even if it is injured, it is still powerful enough to crush any of us in the group one on one.

These monsters are growing far too fast.

The zombie's defense, on the other hand, baffles me.

It's abnormal.

I've never fought a level 18 creature before, but I doubt the defense will be this strong except it's a monster built for defense.

It should be noted that the weapons used to attack the zombie now are at the very least of the rare grade and should be capable of much more.

But guessing the cause for the Zombie defense will get me nowhere, so I charged at the zombie without thinking much.

I was pushing my body to its limits this time.

As I charged forward, I jumped and rotated my body in the air to attack the zombie.

I also infused my mana into the twin blades and activated the blade's effect.

....

[Infusing mana into the blades will coat them in fire, causing greater damage],

[The effect is amplified if the infused mana has a fire attribute],

........

As my mana infused the twin blades, they were immediately coated in blue flames as the temperature in the surroundings heated up.

Despite being close to the fire, I was not receiving any damage, but I could tell that anything that was going to bear the brunt of these flames would feel it.

And in this case, the zombie would be the one to bear it.

As soon as we connected, the zombie flew back and destroyed the block fence of a house behind it.

The house was not spared in the aftermath.

Despite being temporarily stunned by the damage output from the attack I just delivered, I charged at the zombie, not wanting to give it a chance.

However, the attack's damage output is quite high.

Perhaps a little too high?

Or, perhaps, as expected of a rare-grade weapon.

The Normal Grade Hunter Recurve Bow and Quiver is in no way comparable.

You must know that the zombie that is down now is the one that I could barely defend myself against.

I should have used this effect from the start.

I suddenly feel a little stupid.

'Well, I'm not to blame for my first use of a rare-grade weapon.'

As I got closer to the zombie, it had already recovered and stood up, charging at me.

Though its speed stayed unchanged, I knew it had taken a lot of damage from my attack just now based on its appearance.

I slashed at the zombie, sending a wave of curved blue flames at the monster, just as I was about to get in the range of close combat.

My attack now resembled Chris's when he sends out an attack with his sword to perform long-range attacks.

When the attack hit the zombie, it flew back at a faster speed than it had come with.

I had performed another damage on it but I wasn't doing well either.

Though the attack from my rare-grade weapon on the zombie is powerful, it is also because I pumped too much mana into it.

The twin blades allow me to infuse them with mana to cause more damage, but because this is my first time doing this and I am inexperienced, the amount of mana I pumped into the sword was excessive and wasteful.

It's similar to filling a water bottle with water, but the excess that is spilled due to your lack of control is wasteful.

This is also why I believe I was able to reduce the zombie to this state at the expense of mana loss.

Perhaps if my control was more refined, I could do more damage while using a reasonable amount of mana.

But it's at least better than passively taking a beating.

This time, I had to take a quick breath to gather myself before charging back at the zombie, ready to end this quickly before I ran out of juice.

But, unlike before, the zombie did not charge back at me, but instead..... fled.

When I saw this, I wanted to stop its movement, but I couldn't even if I wanted to.

It was too fast.

When I saw this, I had already thought I had let it go, only to see a dense flock of crows appear in front of the zombie and explode.

I took a quick look around and noticed that the zombies in the area had already been killed.

The majority of them have mutilated heads in common.

In addition to their mutilated bodies, they were headless and mutilated.

Quite excessive.

Thanks to Anna's intervention, the crow was able to slow down but not stop the zombie charge.

Fortunately, Anna Shadow Crow was able to create more clones to further slow the zombie charge.

The zombie's intelligence is quite high, as it fled as soon as I was able to injure it.

But that's all, it's quite but not high because I could see it was clearly heading in a certain direction.

Raising my guard, I raced after the zombie with the others, curious about what was going on.
