Level up Zombie

Chapter 290  Stage 3 Weapons

There was a lot of talk among the zombies about what Zain had just done, how he had just made weapons appear out of thin air in his hands. Even Anna was wondering if he could do such a thing, why he hadn't done it before when they were in a tough situation.

Little did they know it was impossible, the original weapons Zain had created out of the zombie crystals had been lost during his captivity. Most likely they had just been left on the school grounds where he had collapsed or thrown away by the Zombie Hunters.

'This zombie, I knew there was something about him that was special.' Humfree thought.' To think even in the tough situation he was in with the Zombie Hunters he only reveals something like this now. It makes me wonder if there's anything else he might be hiding.'

Humfree knew there were special zombies out there, one would only have to see Carl fight to know he was above and beyond the rest. Yet there hadn't been a single person who had come through the doors and could match up to Carl. Seeing this he had high hopes.

While everyone was surprised by the ability that Zain had, Carl was much more focused on the weapons themselves. He could feel there was something different.

'Those weapons in his hands, they aren't ordinary. They are giving me the same power feeling as the evolved zombies, my own body, is even reacting to it. I'll have to be careful.'

Unlike all the other fights before where Carl would face them with no weapons and such, he had already covered both of his arms in the solid black casing, all the way up to the shoulders.

In fact, Zain could even see it partly reach up to his neck just below his chin. Carl's clothes were covering the rest of his body so it was hard to see just how much of his body he had hardened.

"I see you have decided to take this seriously from the start, good choice." Zain said, still oozing with confidence.

Carl got into a fighting stance himself, one that looked like that of a boxer with his left hand out further, and his right hand tucked by the side of his chin.

"Let's hope you have the strength to back up your words."

Immediately, before the fight had been declared to start, Zain was the first to make his move. He swung the swords cleanly through the air. Carl leaned back, avoiding the strike allowing the tip just to miss him.

The sound of the sword going through the air was clean, it was with such speed that they were able to hear it like a whip or skipping rope going through the air. Another strike went downward and to the side a few times, yet Carl was focusing as he avoided each of the strikes.

Those watching didn't know why, but they were pulled in as they witnessed the way Zain swung the swords. He should have just been swinging the swords, yet it almost looked like an art as they watched him continue.

What was even more impressive was Carl avoiding them all, although so far in the fights he had mainly shown his strength and endurance, it looked like his speed was just as good as well.

Having pushed Carl to the edge where the onlookers were standing though, Zain then purposely struck ahead towards one of Carl's eyes. Carl had noticed the strike and stopped himself from dodging to the right and that's when he could see the titan sword coming down from above.

'He's swinging that at full force, and he's incredibly close to me. If I avoid this strike, then the people behind me will get hit.' Carl thought. 'Doesn't he care?'

From the look in his eyes, he could tell Zain wasn't going to pull back if he avoided this strike and then the people behind him would die.

'I will get that master card!' Zain thought in his head as he swung down. Carl lifted both hands above his head, and managed to stop the sword. It was held in place for a moment and the people now were able to move back.

The moment they did, it almost looked like Carl was crushed under the strength of the sword. His legs broke the ground underneath where he was, and pushed him down, but the titan sword still hadn't cut his skin.

"Hey… are you seeing what I'm seeing, did Carl just lose in a contest of strength?" One of the zombies said.

"I think… he just did, I've never even seen that look on Carl's face.

It was slightly strained and even he had to admit he never expected Zain to have this kind of strength either.

'Oh… the stage 3 titan sword is working better than I thought, with this being a master class quest I thought this would be hard, but maybe it won't be in the end.'

[Stage 3 Titan sword]

[Made from the powerful evolved Titans. The sword has great endurance and is next to unbreakable. The sword also gives the wielder of the power of a titan. (+10 strength stat)]

The new weapons weren't just better by a small margin but they were almost night and day, as they gave even better results compared to the stage 2 weapons.

[Strength 20 (+10)]

"Do you think I have the strength to back up my words?" Zain asked.

"I have to admit, you might, but you will have to do more than that to win." Carl replied.

"You're right, let's try hitting a bit harder this time." Zain said, as he lifted the sword once again.

There was still the quest reward for defeating the stage 4 Titan. His diamond card reward gave him a total of 15 stat points to do as he wished.

[5 stat points have been added into strength]

[Strength +5]

[Strength 25 (+10)]

"Brace yourself."
