The group had left Chinatown since there was a lack of mutated zombies there and headed into the outskirts of the City until they found a residential area. An area where the land is predominantly used for housing apartment buildings, as opposed to industrial and commercial areas.

These places usually also have a large open central area with a park, a kindergarten and a few basic utility shops here and there. The idea of the housing here was to build a community where everyone could live.

Since this place was away from the main streets, there were fewer zombies, but there was still plenty for them to fight against.

At the moment, Pink and Kun were just fighting against any zombies they came across. Unfortunately, Zain seemed to be busy doing his own thing, so he was unable to tell them which were mutated zombies and which zombies were just regular ones.

Once in a while, they would come across a crystal, and while one absorbed the power of the crystal, the other would protect the former. Just in case anything was to take place. Still, they couldn't help but try to figure out what Zain was doing.

Zain was still looking for Mutated Zombies, but instead of killing them, he was trying to Tame them, just like he had done with Jam. Eventually, he did find one, and after twisting its arm and getting Skittle to hold the other, Zain bit down on the zombie's neck just like he had done with Jam.

[Taming has failed]

[You can try again after another hour.]

'That's interesting, so there's a cooldown on this, and I can try taming it again after one hour. But I don't want to waste that much time on something like this.' Zain thought as he ordered all three to get rid of it, giving Zain and every one of them more Exp.

Continuing this, Zain eventually found another Mutated Zombie and did the same thing. This time the system message was a positive one.

[You have successfully tamed a Mutated Zombie]

[Would you like to give it a name?]

"Five."

The reason Zain had called the Zombie five was simple. It was because it was the fifth member of the horde.

[Mutated Zombie: Five]

'ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ No(ve) l Bi n',

[Level 1]

[Strength: 0]

[Agility: 0]

[Vitality: 0]

[Intelligence: 0]

'That makes me feel a bit better about Skittle since the mutated Zombies seem to start at 0 as well. Meaning regular zombies are pretty much just cannon fodder. Anyway, I need to test something.'

Making the others follow him, Zain headed into one of the buildings. Upon reaching the entrance on the ground floor, Zain stopped and waited for the others. The other four also stopped upon reaching his side as Zain gave all of them the command to stay.

After a while, Zain stepped forward and began to run towards the other end of the area. He continued to run, and two to three kilometers later, when he had reached the other side of the apartment area, he ordered them to come towards him. He wanted to observe the time they would take or if they could even receive his order since the distance he had run would easily take about thirty minutes to cover by walking.

He waited and waited, and the first one to turn up out of them all was Cobra. Behind him was Jam, running with its tongue out, and at last, were Skittle and the mutated Zombie, both of them reached together.

'I guess this was as expected. Since Cobra is the fastest out of all of them for him to come first, I was hoping they would come as a group so they could each protect each other.' Zain thought. 'The good news is that the commands through the system can work no matter how far I am.

'However, more complicated commands need to be communicated through words, which they can understand depending on their intelligence. This is good...this can work, but there is just one more thing I need to try.'

Pulling out his sword, Zain slashed the Mutated Zombie in front of him. It was a clean strike that cut through the bones and sliced the zombie into two.

[You have attacked a member of your own horde]

['Five' Has died.]

[-100 Exp]

Zain nodded his head at this.

Killing a Mutated Zombie would do nothing, but if one was a member of his own horde, it would count as friendly fire, so Zain felt it was reasonable for him to lose Exp in the process of this, but there was a bigger reason why he did this.

'ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ Novel(B) in.ᴄᴏᴍ ᴛᴏ ᴇxᴘᴇʀɪᴇɴᴄᴇ ꜰᴀsᴛᴇʀ ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ sᴘᴇᴇᴅ.',

He needed to see if the number of his horde would go back down to [4/15]

The system wasn't clear, so it was either he could turn up to 15 people or control 15 Zombies at one time.

If he could only turn 15 people, then Zain needed to be picky about who he decided to turn, and it would be best to create a team of Superhumans. However, if it was the latter, then Zain could create his horde right now and complete his quest.

At the same time, he could give them all the command to stay in an apartment, calling on them only when he needed them, allowing him to still be discreet with his current group.

[4/15 Horde Members]

'This...is perfect.' Zain smiled.

Now, all he had to do was put his plan into action.

On the first floor, Zain emptied an apartment, and every time he turned into a mutated Zombie, Zain brought it into the apartment block to keep all of them in one place. Slowly, the numbers rose, and he named each of them based on the number they joined the group.

Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, and at last, Zain also managed to tame the tenth zombie.

[Quest complete]

[Form your horde: 10/10]

[You have received Silver Card]

After bringing the last zombie into the apartment, Zain stepped out and opened his system to look at the Silver card.

'Now let's see what I get this time.'

[Would you like to use the silver card?]

[Yes] [No]
