The momt the pale-looking zombies appeared, everyone except Klaus turned as as paper. The zombies are a dangerous variant. They possess unnatural speed, strgth, and viciousness, which most warriors can't ev comprehd. Like normal zombies, they crave flesh and blood. However, their primary food is the human brain. They prefer to suck out the brains of their victims. No one knows exactly why, but through many battles, humans have learned that zombies, like people, come in differt races. White zombies are particularly feared for their power and brutality. The ones approaching now are all Tier , and by the way they are moving and the aura a them, it won't be long before they advance to Tier 3. "You guys handle the remaining zombies. I have a destiny with these ones. Try not to die," Klaus said as Anna and her team panicked. "Huh, those are White Zombies. They are very fast and strong. We should run while we still can," Anna said, her tone grim. "Don't worry, they're nothing against my sword," Klaus chuckled and dashed toward the hundreds of zombies. Anna and the others looked on in horror as Klaus charged forward. Despite their panic, Klaus approached the zombies with a determined smile. From lectures he had overheard from Ross Academy, he knew that zombies carried a unique type of zombie stone. Unlike normal zombie stones, which come in three grades, zombie stones from Zombies have distinct marks. These marks determine their values. The more the markings, the more valuable it gets. These marks can hance weapons wh used to refine them, bestowing runes that amplify the weapon's attacks. Klaus had accumulated so much wealth thus far, but a stone from a zombie was worth far more. "Moon Slash," Klaus muttered, swinging his sword. A powerful arc of ice surged toward the monsters, slicing through the front line. Five zombies fell instantly, their heads flying off as the icy arc cut through their ranks. Instead of pausing to collect their heads, Klaus moved like a whirlwind, charging toward the remaining zombies. His sword swung wide, effortlessly severing the head of another zombie. The head flew into the air before vanishing, swallowed by the chaos of the battle. Klaus continued his reltless assault, each swing of his sword precise and deadly. The zombies struggled to keep up with his speed and skill, their attacks becoming increasingly disorganized. His speed is just too fast for them to follow up. As Klaus moved through the horde, his sword left a trail of destruction in its wake. It didn't take long for the zombies' numbers began to dwindle as Klaus cut through them with unwavering determination. His movemts were precise, each strike executed sds a Zombie or Zombies to the aterlife...Literally. "The sharpness is starting to manifest," Klaus said as he continued swinging his sword. From the momt he tered the forest, he has be feeling a subtle change in his sword. Although he doesn't understand it, as a Weapon Overlord, he knew it was something he needed to comprehd before continuing. However, no matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't manaifest the change. But now, with each swing, he started to sse a distinct change. His attacks felt sharper and more lethal, the kind of sharpness he truely wanted. Realizing this, Klaus intsified his efforts, fighting with rewed vigor. "It's too early to say," Nia replied, her tone thoughtful. "His ice essce keeps getting purer by the second, so it might be due to that. But as I said, it's too early to draw any conclusions." "But ev if he doesn't awak it, this kid is pretty good. It would be wise to bring him to our side before the great families set their sights on him," the other woman suggested. "Asha, what did Master tell you? She said it's better to let someone walk their path without interferce. What if, in our attempt to recruit him, we actually push him away?" Nia cautioned. "Sister Nia, I..." Asha began to speak, but Nia gtly interrupted. "It's alright. I know you just want what's best for the academy. But your judgmt of a person's character still needs work. Look at him. It's clear he doesn't trust easily. He could have waited until the battle was over to collect the zombie stones, but he didn't trust any of the young experts on the battlefield, so he picked them up as he fought. This should be ough of a sign to tell you he won't be easily swayed. We can only observe and see how things unfold," Nia said, her voice calm and measured. Back on the battlefield, Klaus had managed to take down 80% of the zombies. The experice point he earned was ormous, and he was nearing the bottleck to advance to the th level. However, Klaus wasn't at ease. Before coming to this Zombie Tide, he had ssed two forms of danger. The first was the Tide itself, which he had now conquered. But the second danger had only grown more intse from the momt broke through to the tth stage. Now, as he approached the th stage, the sse of danger loomed ev larger. Klaus couldn't shake the feeling that his life was in mortal danger, yet the source of this danger eluded him. What was it like? Where was it coming from? How severe would it be? The only thing he could vaguely sse was that this danger would appear sooner than he expected. "This bastard should just die already so I can level up and see what kind of danger I'm dealing with," Klaus muttered under his breath. His attacks became ev more chaotic, striking with increased ferocity. The zombies stood no chance against him. Outside his battle zone, Anna and the others had cleared the majority of the zombies, earning significant experice points. Anna had already reached the 7th level, while the others were at the 6th. As they leveled up, their attacks became expontially stronger, allowing them to slaughter the zombies faster than before. A little over two hours after the battle began, the last of the ordinary zombies were dealt with, causing everyone to sigh in relief. However, the battle was far from over. The zombies were reltless, but Klaus was ev fiercer. His attacks were both lethal and controlled, with a single ice arc leaving a trail of dead bodies in its wake. Slowly, their numbers continued to dwindle, leaving only a couple doz before the tire battlefield was cleared. Suddly, a booming sound echoed from all five trances, and five zombies appeared, one from each. The momt they appeared, Anna and the others stiffed in fear. "Zombie Captains... and there are five of them," Lily whispered, her voice trembling. "No, they're all peak Tier 3, almost stepping into the 4th Tier, and a Tier 4 Zombie Geral. This is bad, really bad." "Humans, you dare slaughter my kind," one of the Zombie Captains growled just as Klaus dispatched the last of the zombies. At that same momt, a message appeared before Klaus's eyes, making him smile. [You have leveled up. Currt Level: Level Awaked. You have received 00 Stat points.]
