The sound of growling could only be heard by Zain because of his enhanced hearing, the others had yet to hear it, which just showed that Zain was perhaps still ahead of them in terms of evolving as a Reborn.
"We just need to hold off a little longer," Zain suggested.
The creature from before had risen again, and it looked like he was ready to use his weapons, but instead of running away as Kun had done, Zain went in closer and stood behind the creature.
It attempted to turn around, trying to shoot Zain, but each time, Zain would swing the sword toward the leg of the Zombies as he continued to pivot, duck and stay close.
'This guy, he always seems to amaze me in one way or the other.' Kun thought, watching this. 'The creature is large in size and slow, so it's harder for it to use its weapons. Especially since it's part of the body and is in a certain place.'
Kun started to think back to his training; they were always taught that the closer they were to someone, the easier it was to disarm them. In some way, Zain's actions were a perfect example of that.
In his panic, Kun hadn't thought of this, which was why Zain was so impressive.
'It's impossible to think that this person has never received any type of military training or anything of the sort before, and he's so skilful for his age as well.'
Even now, Zain was one step ahead; not only was he avoiding and not allowing the creature to use the strange weapons on its body, but his sword strikes were aimed at the legs to slow it down.
The human body works in certain ways, and just because one didn't feel pain didn't mean it could still work with tendons and certain parts of the body getting cut. Due to the thickness and the strange hardened skin, it was just taking a few more swings than it usually would have, but eventually, the creature fell to its knees, unable to turn its body as well as it used to.
Now that Zain was taller than the creature itself, it was a strange sight since previously the creature would tower over Zain when standing. It was as if Kun was seeing someone tackling the gods and bringing them down to his level.
Despite all the work Zain had done, they now looked to be surrounded by the other creatures.
"What do we do!" Pink asked as she ran over to the other two.
"Don't worry, we have a backup now," Zain replied.
Now, the sound of growling filled the halls, and bursting right through the double doors, was a number of zombies, around 10 of them rushed in first, but there were sounds of more growls coming towards them.
'ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ Novel(B) in.ᴄᴏᴍ ᴛᴏ ᴇxᴘᴇʀɪᴇɴᴄᴇ ꜰᴀsᴛᴇʀ ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ sᴘᴇᴇᴅ.',
The creatures turned around as they reacted to the noise. The man with the round head cutter was closest, and a zombie leapt up with its arms dangling out towards him, Zain swung his arm, slicing off the arm of the Zombie, but two more had already jumped and latched on.
'These are the members of my horde, and I can still control them, but I don't think I will have to, I'm pretty sure this will work.'
Soon, nearly five zombies had jumped on top of the creature and were using their hands and teeth to dig into the creature, pulling part of its flesh into its mouth by breaking every muscle fibre they could pull and bite.
"Are the zombies...eating each other... Can zombies even do that?" Pink asked.
"The Doctor's creations, they are not quite zombies. I don't know what they are, but you should have been able to tell from the smell, right? They smelled more like a human rather than a zombie." Zain explained.
The zombies had worked quickly, and although these creatures seemed unkillable for whatever reason, once most of their bodies had been eaten away to nothing but only a few parts of flesh on a bone, they were no longer moving.
After the initial ten zombies had stormed in, more were coming through the hallway. These were all the people from the reception. Unlike the first group, Zain didn't control these since they weren't part of his horde, but now that his little test was done, he was sure it would all work out.
The zombies didn't attack the Reborn in the first place, but they were going straight for these strange creatures in front of them. A little battle on the third floor's reception was playing out.
The creatures were no longer paying any attention to the reborn; instead, they were all swinging their arms, and weapons at the zombies, smashing their heads in and tearing off their limbs, but the numbers were overwhelming for them.
Not caring for what would happen to them, the zombies leapt up, even with broken arms and missing limbs, they continued to bite at the creatures as if trying to get rid of them.
"How did Zombies come into the hospital in the first place? It was well guarded when we arrived, and for them to be this many. Were they attracted by the noise?" Kun asked. Thinking that it could be possible.
The Doctor and his men were comfortably using weapons, which should have meant they were confident enough to know that the weapons being used inside wouldn't attract anything from the outside.
Then the most likely case was that the people from inside had been turned into zombies. For Kun, there was straight away a number one suspect in all of this, and he looked at Zain.
"If I didn't do that, then we would have died," Zain replied. "We need to look at the bigger picture. Come on, let's get moving and give that Doctor some payback before getting out of here."
Kun looked at Zain walking up the escalator and smiled. Although Zain was acting like the big toughie why was he walking up right now. Sure, he could have come to save him and Pink, but that task was done.
Right now, they could just walk out of the hospital and return. The information that Zain wanted off Brandon couldn't have been that important, right?
'I guess you do have a soft side and want to help people, even if you don't want to show it.' Kun thought.
'ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NovelB(i)n. ᴄᴏᴍ',
Walking up the stairs, Zain was gritting his teeth because there had been an update to the quest.
[You have rescued your allies! Congratulations part 1 of the quest has been completed]
[Find and rescue ally Brandon to complete the quest]
'This system never stated there was a part 2 to the damn quest, and now I have to save him as well. I've come this far anyway, and I said I would help out Cody, besides I want to meet this doctor who created these mutants in the first place.
'Then I can get the gold reward card and get out of this place.'
Halfway up the escalator, there was a sudden feeling in the back of Zain's head. It started off as a dull ring which got louder and the pain. Zain had felt this before. Falling to one knee, Zain held the back of his head.
"No, not now, why now of all times, this stupid Sh*t body!" Zain said as he tried to push through, his vision getting blurry and trying to stand up.
"Zain, are you okay? Is everything alright!" Pink asked as she rushed to his side. She wanted to check if he had any wounds, but he seemed fine. Then it hit her, she had seen Zain act like this a few times before.
'He's going to pass out again, but if that happens here...'
The fighting was still going on below between the creatures, and they were close to the top. The other problem was that if Zain did pass out, just how long would it be for? Would they continue the task without him, or would one of them have to wait with Zain while the others continued to go up?
Zain was pushing through, and sweat was running down the side of his face; the pain, the headache, all of these things were more human-like actions.
'Now is the worst time for this to happen. This is dangerous. My life could be on the line. Isn't there anything I can do?'
Thinking fast and desperately, the fact that Zain could feel pain, he pulled out the dagger from the belt he was wearing. Then lifting it up, he swung it down right into the middle of his hand.
The blade stabbed right through, and just like Zain thought, pain signals were running through his entire body; the veins on his neck were bulging, but after that, his vision started to clear, and he could see fine again.
Standing up, Zain wiped the sweat off his head.
"Let's go, we have to do this quickly before this happens again."
