Into the Zombie World

"Zombie attack! Zombie attack!"

Hearing the frantic shout. Everyone stood up and went outside immediately.

The man who shouted was Anthony, he is the one who was tasked to scout after they finished eating. By scout, it means that he needs to monitor the movement of the zombie inside the Village Hall.

He has a crew cut, and a toned cheek bone. He is 172cm tall and has a thin build. Just like the others, his appearance is unkept because of not having a bath for a few days, or even months.

As Anthony arrived at the front, he arch his back and rested both of his hands on his knees.

"The.gasp*. S.strong..gasp* Zombie.gasp* is coming.gasp* here" Anthony speaks hurriedly, but because he is panting heavily, the way he speaks is slightly inaudible.

Seeing this, Marlin came to Anthony's side and patted his still arch back.

"Easy, Easy. Froilan get some water!"

Froilan nodded and ran inside the house. He comes back right after with a glass of water in his hand.

Froilan then handed the glass full of water towards Anthony. After calming down a little, Anthony drinks and emptied the glass of water immediately.

After drinking, Anthony then explains what he had encountered.

According to Anthony. The Level One° zombie inside the Village Hall goes out as usual. But this time, after a few rounds of searching, zombies suddenly started appearing one after another.

All of them gathered towards the location of the Level One° zombie. After the group of zombies gathered, they started their march towards the base's location.

Seeing this, Anthony immediately runs back to report what is happening.

Based on what Froilan said to Nile, the Level One° zombie inside the Village Hall will often wander around the 50-70 meter radius from the Village Hall.

As they did not know why, they can only assume that it is searching for food. They will scout the Village Hall area frequently to monitor the movement of the Level One° zombie inside it.

This time it looks like it is not searching for food and instead is gathering forces to raid their base.

Learning the severity of the situation, Marlin immediately takes command and starts giving orders to everyone.

"Get the guns that we have looted from before. Spread the gasoline outside the gate. Get ready for battle." Marlin's face is tense as he gives out the order.

Based on what Anthony had said, the zombies' marching speed is like a normal walk.

Nile and Marlin arrived here from the Village Hall within 20+ minutes of a fast walk.

Based on the zombies speed, they estimated that the zombie group will probably arrive here in 15 minutes. Anthony arrived at the base with 9 minutes of running. He dared not to stop.

...

After a minute, everyone gathered again at the front. They have already spread the gasoline 3 meters outside the gate.

Marlin, Romulo, Hector and Clarris are holding a gun each.

Marlin has a pistol. Romulo and Hector have a shotgun, while Clarris is holding a small revolver.

Froilan and the others are holding either a baseball bat, staff, or kitchen knives.

Nile did not make a comment on this. He thought that they were prepared, but they are underestimating the Level One° zombies too much. With only half-step zombies, they might have a chance as guns still have a considerable effect on them. But Level One° zombies are already at a whole new Level.

He could tell that Marlin, Romulo, Hector and Clarris are already at half-step Level One°, but their stats are lower and are far from the threshold of 5.0.

Maybe that is also the reason why they decided to let them hold the guns. 

...

Except for Nile, everyone is tense as they stare at the road where the group of zombies would appear.

Nile could see that everyone was sweating bullets. Some of them are even gulping their own saliva.

This must be their first time to battle with the zombies. Although they are already here from the start, they are not proactive and only scout the area, avoiding the zombies as much as possible.

As the 15 minutes mark arrived. The roar of the zombies became apparent.

Growwl*

Aurrrgh*

Seeing the number of zombies coming. They felt helpless and hopeless.

The females and even some males are shaking in horror and tension.

The big 4, Marlin, Romulo, Hector and Clarris are still holding on and are only shaking lightly. Even Froilan is slightly better than Clarris. Froilan has a considerable gut.

...

With his enhanced eyesight. Nile could see that there are many low levelled zombies at the front. Based on their actions, he could see that there are considerable Level One° zombies at the back.

Halfway through, the group of zombies suddenly stops. Nile could see that they are controlled by the 'Huge' zombie at the back.

Nile could see the surprise expression on the face of the 'huge' zombie at the back. It seems that they are not the actual target of the zombie army, they are just on the way towards the zombie army's destination.

The huge zombie's face is horrendous to the eyes. Just like any other zombie, its face was also rotting. Even from afar, you could tell how unpleasant its smell would be. 

After the sudden stop, the huge zombie waved its right hand and the zombie army continued to march forward.

...

As everyone felt horror and tension, they did not notice that a figure was already at the front of the gate.

The figure is wearing a red short sleeve hoodie and black sweat shorts. The figure is dragging a meter long sledgehammer that is producing some sparks at the ground.

The figure is Nile. Nile will intercept the zombies by himself.

He is not underestimating the zombies, nor overestimating his strength.

Nile is confident that he could take the zombie army head on.

The zombie army numbered up to 80 or more, including the half-step Level One° and genuine Level One° zombies.

One Level One° boss, Seven Level One° underlings, and the rest are mobs that have no threat to him.

...

As he arrived at the area where the gasoline is poured, the spark produced by the sledgehammer and the ground ignited the gasoline that was scattered.

A trail of fire that is almost a waist in height had spread sideways causing the people that are at the back to jolt their minds out, recovering a little from the stupor.

Marlin is the one who spoke first.

"Nile! What are you doing? Come back here immediately!" Marlin shouted with all his might.

The other also followed suit, urging Nile to come back. Saying that it is still not late and things like, if Nile wants to die, they should just wait at the base and die together.

But Nile still did not stop and continued ahead, dragging his sledgehammer with him.

Nile, hearing the shouts from the back, felt warm.

This is also the reason why he is intercepting the zombie army midway.

Nile did not want to see them die. Nile still wants to see them in the future. Nile wants to experience the kind of warm feelings he felt from them again.

Nile turned his head slightly to the back and said.

"Don't worry everyone, I'll handle them."

He then continued walking. After taking three steps ahead. Nile smirked to the zombies at his front, and pointed the sledgehammer towards them.

"And, all of you. Will become everyone's tonic."
