Undying Warlord

Dilan didn’t even think of wasting his time with the young Ascenders anymore. He went to sleep in the ward he had claimed for himself.

His mood was quite bad but his exhaustion pulled him into a deep sleep that lasted far longer than Dilan wanted.

Waking up when the sun had already risen, Dilan left his room before encountering a bustling second floor.

Everyone was already awake and following the tasks they had been given.

“He is doing fine…” Someone mumbled all of a sudden before Dilan saw that several gazes were lingering on him.

It were the gazes of a few new Ascenders that had joined their ranks the day before.

Dilan didn’t speak to them, and instead, he went down the stairs toward the cafeteria.

Bianne was working hard to cook for everyone.

She had been given some assistants, who helped her as well, just for Dilan to see that each of them was wearing a [Ring of Yarad]!

“Morning, Bianne. How many Rings of Yarad do we have right now?”_-.

Dilan could conclude that the others had exchanged the Essences which they procured with treasures.

That was the only plausible reason for them to own multiple Rings of Yarad.

Noticing Dilan after a moment, Bianne stopped stirring the contents of the huge pot with a ladle before smiling drily.

“We have a total of five of them. But I don’t think that should be your main focus right now! The young Ascenders you lectured are quite annoying. They want to prove that they can do better, which is why they were nagging Kathrine, Yvonne, and the others to clear the tower with them!”

Dilan told the new Ascenders that they shouldn’t try to conquer the hospital all by themselves. That was why they wanted the help of the stronger Ascenders.

However, that was not without dangers as well because Dilan doubted that Kathrine, Williams, let alone Yvonne would be unable to kill Silver monsters yet.

Silver monsters were simply too powerful as some of their stats were close to the limits of a Tierless existence!

Thus, Dilan took a slice of bread and some sausages they had prepared from the meat of the War Krendel before he walked up the stairways to reach the seventh floor just a few minutes later.

He didn’t rush anything and focused on keeping his calm.

It would do no good to keep lecturing the new Ascenders about the mistakes they made. In fact, Dilan was not even sure if Miles and the others were truly doing something wrong by asking Kathrine and the others to clear the hospital.

They didn’t ask for his help because he had been sleeping. And the fact that they were trying to solve problems by themselves was also remarkable.

Dilan was quite happy that they listened to his instruction of not going up without anyone else, as well.

As such, he calmed himself before reaching the seventh floor.

“Oh? They already cleared it?” The entire seventh floor was littered with zombie corpses.

The day before, Dilan killed only some of the Shadow zombies before he chose to return as he had been angered by the reckless behavior of two particular youths.

That was why it was quite a surprise to see that the seventh floor was already cleared.

Dilan reached the eighth floor after reassuring himself that none of the zombie corpses were moving.

The eight floor was also cleared, which led Dilan to the ninth floor, where he saw more than 90 Ascenders fighting against zombies.

They were clearly overwhelming the low-leveled zombies and crushing them easily.

On the other hand, the stronger ordinary zombies died at the hands of multiple Ascenders that ganged upon them.

A huge War Krendel moved through the hallway of the ninth floor with two crushed Bronze zombies in its hand.

After placing the corpses on a small mountain, Dilan immediately came across Yvonne’s rather small body frame.

She was controlling the War Krendel’s corpse, which allowed her to fight without the need for her to fight with her own hands.

This was quite wasteful in Dilan’s opinion, but it was not his business to tell Yvonne how she had to fight.

He was more focused on Kathrine, Williams and Xenia, who were fighting a rather strong monster right now, either way.

Dilan didn’t intend to intervene, but that didn’t seem to be necessary, to begin with.

The monster they were fighting was a mutated Bronze zombie with the same or a higher prowess than the Chimera Zombie Centaur.

What astonished Dilan in their fight was the fact that Williams wielded a longsword while two daggers levitated around him.

“Psychokinesis is truly an interesting ability…but Xenia’s [Enhanced Movement] looks quite interesting as well. It’s a decent passive ability, that is for sure!”

Dilan had first observed the fight of the three Ascenders which he deemed as the strongest in his entire group.

They were still far from him, but Dilan was quite sure that each of them was able to kill the four-armed zombie they faced, all by themselves.

But even if the possibility existed, it was better for them to face the opponent together.

This was quite important to build some trust, to get to know each other better, and even more so to prevent the zombie from scratching them even once!

Survival was more important than showing off, after all!

After averting his gaze from the small group of three, Dilan kept looking at the other Ascenders.

Most of them belonged to the former shepherds gang, but there were also more than enough Survivors that had been in the Rian mountainside hospital for quite a while.

However, what Dilan focused on the most was not everyone’s combat prowess or the question of whether they had the talent to fight or not.

Dilan’s focus was solely on ensuring that the people around him did not endanger their own group by acting recklessly or being overly stupid.

That was also why Dilan couldn’t help but stare at Miles and his friend for a while.

Due to his passive ability [Perception], Miles could tell that Dilan was looking at him.

No one other than Dilan had such a fierce and penetrating gaze that could stare in the depths of one’s soul!

Thus, Miles froze for a quarter of a second. However, instead of freezing on the spot, or making more mistakes, Miles’ eyes turned stoic as he focused on the low-leveled zombies ahead of him.

Wielding one of the Kobolds’ spears, Miles was able to move much faster than the zombies.

Furthermore, owing to his precise perception, he could sense and spot every single movement of the slow zombies which allowed him to react to their movements before they took their first step.

Dilan could clearly see the way Miles moved. It was a habit he had picked up not too long ago.

And this trait of his was further enhanced because his Agility was several times higher than the opponents he outwitted with his movements.

This was not something he could do without his high agility, let alone while being as fast as the opponents he fought.

‘Looks like he learned quite a bit!’
