God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse-Chapter 42 Fight! Fight For Your Life!
[2 hours: 15 minutes: 16 seconds]
[5 hours: 45 minutes: 16 seconds]
I saw the time that Caroline and Alex will take to wake up. They were both sleeping on a bed on the 36th floor, and I turned to look at the door where a young girl of about 10 years of age was peeking at Alex.
I then stood up and started leaving the room, but before I could go too far,
"Are they dead?" that little girl asked in a hushed voice and I turned to look at her before smiling and speaking,"they should wake up within 5 or 6 hours. They are just tired."
Once she heard what I said, her face blossomed with a smile as she answered,"thank you devil like person."
At her words, I almost slipped before awkwardly looking at her. I wanted to correct her but then I decided not to, because… It wasn't too off the mark. Given the current situation, that is.
Then I moved out to see White standing in front of the door. I guess he came here to check up on Caroline and Alex as well. 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚
"Take care of them. They should wake up before eve," I said before moving towards the next apartment. He silently looked at me before moving inside the room.
Taking a peek in the next apartment, I saw George silently absorbing the zombie core without speaking any word as he closed his eyes and sat on the sofa.
I then sighed before moving towards the lower floors, slowly reaching the 34th floor where the zombies were once again banging against the door.
I haven't seen the rest of the survivors, and neither have they met me again. Currently, they were hiding on the higher floors and I kind of gave up trying to talk to them.
I slowly moved towards the door and once again opened it up, however this time I didn't use Temporal Deceleration but simply killed them using the kitchen knives that I restocked.
I cleared the 33rd floor. 32nd floor. 31st floor. 30th floor. 29th floor. 28th floor… 25th floor.
I was taking small breaks to catch my breath, this time to recover my energy. This way, it was easy to move down the floors without worrying about getting exhausted. Once I reached the 25th floor, I thought of doing something…
[Time Catcher (Level 5)
Effects: Allows the user to take the time of other living beings and convert it into Cronas. Note that the User's Wisdom must be more than the person on whom it is being used.
Cost: 5 Cronas obtained per 50 Time Points per 30 minutes
Skill points required to upgrade the Skill: 10]
I then killed all the zombies, except for one, which was a Lesser E-Grade zombie. I moved closer to it and then pushed it to the ground. Once down, I climbed up on its back and then touched its head as I applied the skill on it.
[Time Catcher!]
I saw that I was absorbing strange energy again, however something else happened that surprised me…
[Would you like to consume all the Desiccation Energy and convert it into Cronas?]
'Now, isn't that a surprise?' I thought as a slight smile arrived on my face and…
[Comparing the charm difference between the user and the subject]
[Calculations done!]
[The Charm difference is greater than 5: The user can absorb the Desiccation Energy]
[Would you like to proceed?]
[Yes/No]
I pondered about it for a few moments before clicking on [Yes]
Then, I saw a strange energy flowing out of the zombie and flowing into my body. The zombie started shaking rigorously before it fell down unconscious.
[Lesser E-Grade Desiccation Energy Absorbed!]
[+3 Cronas received]
I saw that I didn't receive any Exp from it, so I tried killing it, but even after bashing its head into crumbs; I didn't receive any message.
'So I get a choice between Cronas and Exp, huh?' I thought before looking at the incoming zombies who were coming from downstairs.
'I guess I will aim for 2000 Cronas first,' I thought as I moved down. I wanted to see the effect of the fusion skill, as the previous quest was still there enough to get me to level 10.
[Clear all the floors of Libra building: 45/70]
[Reward:
(1) Dungeon Key (Silver Rank) x 3
(2) +10,000 Exp
(3) Random Skill Upgrade]
I then moved down, absorbing one zombie after another,
[+3 Cronas]
[+5 Cronas]
[+7 Cronas]
[+3 Cronas]
.
.
.
Soon I reached floor 10, and I looked at the amount of Cronas I had. At this point, I had absorbed about 180 zombies or so and as I was killing them; I realized that the amount of Cronas that the zombies provided on killing them each was as follows:
Lesser E-Grade: +3
E-Grade: +5
Lesser D-Grade: +7
Surprisingly, I didn't find any D-Grade zombies anymore and unfortunately, the system wasn't showing the types of zombies that I needed to face. Just the number on each floor.
[Total Cronas: 860]
Compared to how much an average skill fusion was costing, it wasn't much, but I guess it was better than nothing.
I was about to move down to the next floor but before I could do so; I felt like something coming towards me and I used Temporal Deceleration immediately
[Temporal Deceleration!]
My eyes looked around as I gulped… I couldn't see anything or anyone, but I was sure there was someone around me.
'How long will I be attacked?' I asked and
[1 seconds]
Before I could react, a punch landed on me from my front and I flew back a considerable distance before
-Boom!
-Thud!
After hitting against the wall at the very back of the alleyway, I fell down on the ground. My vision slightly blurred as I looked at the front…
[Health points: 245/5000]
'When will I be hit again?' was the first question that I asked with barely holding on to consciousness.
[3 Seconds]
Was what I saw on the screen in front of me.
