Chapter 114: First Tower Clear (2)

The 9th floor was cleared not long after Dilan had gotten a fair idea about everyone’s prowess.
Afterward, most Ascenders were occupied with collecting Essences. From the looks of it, Yvonne had gained the most as every single corpse that lay next to her was a Bronze monster.
Most of them were different types of zombies, which meant that she would gain many status points as well.
‘She has probably reached level 10 by now, right?’
Dilan was pretty sure that Yvonne had the highest possibility to become the second strongest in their group.
However, then again, Kathrine and Williams were already accumulating Essence for their advancement to Tier-1.
Nobody knew what kind of benefits the advancement to Tier-1 had, but if Dilan’s theory was correct, they would receive abilities that were directly related to the occupation they chose while advancing to Tier-1.
Thus, one could say that being Tierless was not exactly the perfect scale to determine one’s future combat prowess.
But even then, Dilan was sure that Yvonne had an advantage over everyone else.
While throwing a glance around, Dilan couldn’t help but smile.
The number of their casualties was a clean zero, nobody was scratched, and everyone was able to become stronger.
Yet, instead of using the ordinary Essence crystals for themselves, most chose to gather them in several large bags.
“Everyone felt that it might be for the best to procure more Rings of Yarad. We don’t have enough to supply everyone with enough water each day. Sven has asked us to gather 20 or more Rings of Yarad if possible.”
Kathrine smiled faintly while approaching Dilan.
He nodded his head to greet her, just to avert his focus.
“As long as they absorbed three Essences from each type of zombie they killed to gain status points, that’s perfectly fine. Leveling up doesn’t provide much benefit.
Five status points are not that valuable in comparison to the status points one gets after killing different types of zombies and other monsters.”
From the looks of it Kathrine seemed to have accepted the former shepherds’ gang rather easily.
This was great, but mostly owed to Sven’s highly strategic thinking.
Xenia and Williams were also far from stupid. Their tips on how to improve everyone’s life were exceptional.
This was also the reason why Kathrine didn’t believe that the shepherd’s gang had been an ordinary gang.
There was something weird about them because none of them looked like ordinary thugs or criminals.
Dilan felt exactly the same, which was probably the biggest reason for him to accept them. Only shepherd Xias and his people had been weird, but the problems caused by them had disappeared with their deaths.
However, the weirdest was probably the fact that every single member of the former gang approved of Dilan’s action against Xias and his people.
This was quite odd, but not something he would waste his time thinking about.

Instead of thinking too much, Dilan cleared his throat.
“Let’s clear the entire tower today! I will look after the zombies that nobody else can handle. Other than that, I won’t intervene. Don’t act recklessly, and team up with others instead of attempting to fight a monster all by yourself that is too strong!
I would rather see all of you fighting together than to have to kill one of my own people, who have turned into a zombie!”
Dilan’s mood was much better than before.
That only further improved when he heard that Oliver and Ailee were preparing everything for the other Survivors to make their first kill.
There were around 500 Survivors that had yet to gain their first ability crystal.
Everyone believed that this was a great opportunity to build up a more powerful Unit of combatants, followed by improving their livelihood in several other ways.
After all, not every ability was for combat purposes, and neither was it for chores, auxiliary occupations or something else.
There were also abilities that may be deemed as a waste to be used by certain people, while it could be extremely useful for others.
Oliver’s injury had been fully tended to, and he was eager to help everyone gain their first ability crystal.
On the other hand, Sarah and Pierre focused on procuring the necessary tools to create the mana replenishment potion!
After Dilan went to the Krendel’s Underground Valley, nobody else followed him. As such, the number of ores and Lumina crystals they owned was limited and not something he could sparingly use.
But that was perfectly fine because the preparations for everything were bound to take a while.
This was also the case with Old Jeff. He felt much better than before. In fact, he was ready to return to his dear occupation as a blacksmith right off the bat.
The only issue was that he had yet to get his hands on the necessary forging tools, let alone a smithy!
Dilan had to solve this problem quite soon, which was something he wanted to focus on.
However, for now, the first of the four hospital towers had to be cleared.
This was something Dilan had been wanting to finish for a while already!!
With that in mind, Dilan hoped to encounter some Silver monsters or even some ordinary Tier-1 zombies.
‘The zombies inside the hospital are rather weak, to begin with. They cannot procure any Essence from other monsters, so I shouldn’t expect too much, right?’
Shrugging his shoulders he continued to walk up to the 10th floor.
The tower they were inside was said to have 15 floors. As such, there was not all too much left to clear.
Most zombies were ordinary and there were only a few exceptions.
The exceptions were taken care of by the others, while the truly extraordinary zombies were Dilan’s task to handle.
Unfortunately, there were not many zombies Dilan had to kill.
Because there was only little for him to do, Dilan focused on observing everything.

If his help were to be required, he could act at once.
But everything was fine from the looks of it. The situation was completely different from the night before.
It was almost as if everyone changed their outlook on how they perceived reality overnight.
Just one scratch and everything was over. That was reality, and Dilan nearly sacrificed himself for the sake of others.
They knew that anyone else but him would have turned into a zombie by now. Even for Dilan, it had been quite close which was something everyone had noticed based on the way he acted after protecting Miles and his friend.
Thus, everyone fought rather passively. Only a few exceptions advanced aggressively once they perceived an opportunity before retreating once again.
Over the course of hours, the Ascenders were slowly getting to know each other.
A bond of camaraderie was forming between the former gang members, and everyone else.
This was great to see, even more so when one could clearly see that nobody was left behind.
There was no outcast as every single Ascender was slowly included in a combat formation that they planned on using.
Meanwhile, Dilan simply kept observing their teamwork with a bright smile.
However, unexpectedly, he had to act quite often from the 12th floor upward.
It was almost as if the Lords of the tower were trying to control everything from the highest position.
That was why he encountered more than six Silver zombies and four ordinary Tier-1 monsters!
Against all odds, it looked like the hospital was far more dangerous than initially expected.
This was even more terrifying while looking at the devastating state of the three highest floors of the hospital’s tower.
Dilan had been much faster and more powerful than each of the zombies he fought, which was only owed to the fact that the four Tier-1 zombies had been even weaker than the Silver zombies.
They had ascended to Tier-1 by choosing one of the Common Ancient Paths of Advancement.
He absorbed all Essence crystals he procured without even thinking about exchanging them with other treasures.
After all, his next mission was something much better than procuring some Tierless Silver treasures!
