Chapter 293 Master card reward
Chapter 293 Master card reward
The zombies that were summoned had been unsummoned and placed back into the system. If there was any doubt as to who the zombies belonged to, now it was certainly cleared up.
"Wait, so the new guy, the new guy actually beat Carl? Does this mean he's the strongest in the Dark Zombies?"
"Hey and what about his summoning power, how come he can do that, what is with that, that's a first, right?" Another said.
There were whispers all over the place, some were happy that Carl had finally been defeated, amazed at what happend, but there was also a lot of caution among the Dark Zombies.
Carl, although he was the strongest, strictly followed Humfree's orders, and having been with Humfree for a while now, they knew he meant no harm to them. Whereas this newcomer, doing this, there was a good chance that it could change the status quo of everything.
'That fight, although a lot of people think I'm stronger than Carl since he had admitted defeat, that's certainly not the case.' Zain thought. 'Even based on the previous fights, he was adapting as he learned more information.'
'I overwhelmed him with tricks and surprises that he didn't have time to adapt to. Increasing my strength, my speed, using the new skills from the weapons and using the zombie horde at my control.'
'Most likely Humfree was the one that had ordered him to fight in a certain way, to allow him to bring out the best in his opponents. If it wasn't for the fact this was a training session, in the real world, there is no such thing as admitting defeat, only those who live and die.'
'If it was a fight to the death then I would lose, at least that was the case before I received the master card. I have no clue what it has in store for me.'
Humfree's hands were shaking as he held onto his cane, his knuckles were turning white due to the pressure.
"Everyone, the show is over!" Humfree shouted. "Please welcome our new members into the Dark Zombies!"
The zombies cheered as they heard Humfree declare these words. Whatever the case was, for now, having strong allies like these join the group was good for them.
"Now, we should allow our fellow fighters to rest. They have been put under a lot of pressure, as for you Zain, Dart will come to collect you in an hour or so, it seems we have more to talk about."
There was no doubt in Zain's mind what Humfree wanted to talk about, his powers and how he could use them. He expected this, which was why he had hidden it from others for so long as well.
While walking back to the main building, the others stayed close to Zain. They felt like they had made the right decision to stick as close to him as possible and with him winning the fight, had allowed them to have some sort of position in this place, since they had come along with him. Yet no one said a word, they were somewhat afraid.
Wendy in particular was thinking back to when she had first met Zain.
'At the time, he was protecting that other zombie, I had never seen anything like it before… It looked human. That was before I knew about Reborn zombies and before the Zombie Hunters knew about them as well, but even back then was that what Zain was capable of, controlling zombies?'
There was a deeper question in the back of Wendy's head. Was it the ability to create or control zombies, and if so how many? Could he possibly be able to stop the random attacks altogether?
The group had eventually arrived in the large ballroom where several of the other zombies were staying and where they had slept for the night. As expected, they were exhausted and went to collapse on the mattresses immediately.
They were quick to notice that there were a number of eyes that were looking their way as well, it was the other zombies.
"I think if you guys want a proper rest, it's best if I'm not here. If Dart comes looking for me, tell him I'll be outside, in the fields." Zain replied.
After everything that happened, especially Humfree declaring they were now all part of the Dark Zombies, he felt that they wouldn't be attacked without him, and besides, he wanted to be on his own, so he was able to focus on something else.
Once outside, Zain could see a few other zombies talking, fighting and such, but the field was enormous so he found a safe place away from all the others and sat down with his legs crossed, almost in a meditating-like position.
'It's time to see what this card can do.' Zain thought.
[Would you like to use the Master card]

[The Master card is the top reward that can be granted from the system]
[Initiating special response procedure]
[Requirements have been unlocked.]
The crystal that Zain would always wear around his neck, that he had picked up from Sarah, started to glow once more, and the strangest thing had occurred. It looked as if it was melting and had created a circle marking on his chest.
[The reward has been received]
[All stats have been maxed out.]

All of this, it was beyond what Zain was expecting.
