Chapter 44 Defeated
[ You have killed the BOSS: Berserk Zombie (Lv.40) ]
[You gain 500 Exp. ]
Clyde breathed a sigh of relief after he managed to kill the second BOSS.
Hundreds of zombies around them collapsed to the ground like robots whose power was suddenly cut off.
'Will I gain experience from all these zombies?'
Clyde's eyes widened as the thought crossed his mind.
However, what Clyde thought apparently did not happen. The zombies just die without giving Exp.
He didn't feel too disappointed though. Because he had already guessed that that was what was going to happen.
If indeed the zombies also provide Exp, then the balance of this apocalypse will be even more chaotic than now.
And then, the World Masters will be raising the difficulty even more. That can't happen.
"Clyde!" Asqa shouted from behind him.
When Clyde turned his head, he saw the rest of the group breathing hard while sitting on the ground.
Their faces expressed immense relief.
Soon the sound of an extremely loud notification echoed through the air.
[ "Congratulations to Player "CLYDE CROSS, SONYA REID, ASQA STARR, ERIC HANSEN, MONA COXX, REED RIVERA, AND RODNEY STRING" for defeating the BOSSes "BERSERK ZOMBIES."" ]
[ "Rewards for defeating the BOSS sent to Inventory." ]
[Rewards: 5,000 Coins. ]
This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com
[ "The First Chapter: Undead Virus has been completed." ]
Everyone frowned. Even Clyde frowned in disbelief.
"That's the only reward we got? 5,000 coins?!" Reed was the first to voice his complaint.
Reed's complaint was what was on everyone's mind right now.
After experiencing such difficulty even so close to dying, they only got 5,000 coins.
"This is too much," Sonya said in a low voice full of despair.
She was too weak to scream out her anger. If she wasn't tired, Sonya would have screamed like Reed.
Clyde looked up at the sky. He wished those World Masters could see him.
So that they can realize that they have indeed done something outrageous.

Meanwhile, in the white room, Luccio snorted and gave a small smile while looking at Clyde's angry expression.
He looked up with eyes burning with obvious anger.
"Does he feel angry because he just received a reward like that? Tch, what a greedy young man," Luccio said.
"But he is quite good. I admit that. He can even become a Transcendence in this Chapter."
Then Luccio turned to Agatha. To be precise, towards Agatha who was being bound by his chains on the wall.
Agatha looks pathetic. Blood was gushing from the part of her body that was bound by the chains. It was because the chains were getting tighter binding her.
Even now the chains have gone into her flesh. Making her feel unimaginable pain.
Agatha's eyes were red looking at Luccio. The look in her eyes showed a feeling of rage. And even though it's faint, there's a despair that merges in it.
Luccio only snorted at Agatha's condition.
"You enjoying your time?" Luccio asked rhetorically to Agatha.
Agatha did not answer. Instead, she gritted her teeth as she continued to give Luccio that mad look.
Lucio nodded. As if he was approving something.
"Good. You still have that spirit."
Then Luccio continued to stare at the screen in front of his eyes.

When he felt like he couldn't do anything anymore. Clyde took a deep breath and walked the other way.
"There's nothing we can do about it. After all, you guys have leveled up already, right?" Clyde said. "Instead, we need to find Rodney."
Because what he said was true, they all straightened up again.
Although there was clearly still a feeling of disappointment on their faces from only obtaining 5,000 coins they had also leveled up.
"I don't know where he went. Maybe he's even dead," said Eric.
"Isn't he your friend?" Asqa asked with a look of disbelief upon hearing the way Eric said that.
Eric just glanced at her. "You think this is the first time we've seen him die?"
Asqa was silent. She presses her lips together realizing that they are Regressors. They had seen others die more than once.
"So if one of you dies, you two go back to the beginning again?" Clyde asked.
"Yes. So don't worry. We won't really die," Reed replied.
"That means you guys will return to live in this hell with no end in sight?" Sonya asked.
The Regressors did not answer. But by the look on their faces, Sonya could see their grim answer.
"It doesn't matter now." Clyde broke the silence. "Let's at least find them first."
"You're right," Mona said.
Then they started looking for Rodney amidst the corpses of the zombies scattered everywhere.
Rodney was actually hiding behind a narrow alley. After returning from taking something that was not very useful for now.
'Shit, it's no use taking this!' Rodney cursed in his heart.
In his hand now there is a white orb. Inside the orb, there is a kind of fog that moves and is trapped in it.
The orb is a secret item located not far from the BOSS spawning location in the First Chapter.
The information about the item was only known to Rodney after going through many Regression turns. And only he knows of its existence.
Rodney shook his head in frustration. But because he knew that everything already happened, he put the white orb into his Inventory.
The orb disappeared from Rodney's hand. Then he walked out of the alley.
But Rodney came back inside as soon as he saw Mona walking towards him.
Rodney immediately lay down in the alley and pretended to pass out.
A moment later Mona saw Rodney lying in the alley.
"Rodneys!"
Mona ran into the alley and approached Rodney.
"Hey, you okay?" Mona shook Rodney's shoulder.
Then Rodney opened his eyes. Try his best to show the acting of a person in pain.
"Argh... What happened?" Rodney asked.
Mona sighed her. "Everything is okay. We have succeeded in defeating the BOSSes."
Rodney then rose to his feet assisted by Mona. They exited the alley and headed for the rest of the group.
