Adversary of The Undead
"Fucking bastards..." Izna cursed under her breath. "How many people want to hunt us down?"
Snake was by her side, out of breath, just like her. Neither of them was in good shape and as the number of enemies increased, their hopefulness diminished.
What had started as holding back five people slowly turned into sixteen. The fuckers had called for backup as soon as they realized they won't be able to push through them on their own and more people kept showing up as time passed.
Normally, these assholes would not have even thought about teaming together. But since Logan and their crew have become big targets, the thugs decided to gang up on them, too. So far they had held them back, but they won't be able to do it any longer.
Unlike her, Snake was in a critical situation. One assailant managed to attack his shoulder, dislocating it. While another one had broken a couple of his fingers. But it wasn't like they were only taking beatings.
Apart from that sixteen people standing, at least a dozen people were down on the ground. A couple of them even had their necks snapped in half by Snake.
Izna always had a talent for knowing what was going inside someone's head, just by looking into their eyes. And the eyes of the ones in front of them only wanted one thing...
"All of you, get back. The bounty is ours to take." A hoarse voice boomed through the air.
The following moment, the crowd parted sideways to reveal a man and woman walking through. Although neither Izna nor Snake knew these people, they could easily guess who they were.
"The Helenskis..."
The presence of the gargantuan man overshadowed everyone else standing there. As he got closer, Izna got a clearer look at him. There was a single strand of hair on the man's head and his grayish eyes could barely hold back the rage they had within them.
His shirtless body bore the blood of the people who were unlucky enough to have a run-in with him. His oval face narrated a similar story of pain with his bushy, unkempt beard. There was another noticeable thing about his face, the four badly done piercings on his left ear.
His sister was the complete opposite of him. She appeared as someone who would take care of their appearance and had incredibly long and curly blonde hair that complemented her ashen eyes.
She, too, had blood all over her body, just like her brother. It was as clear as day who had been killing the players instead of fighting zombies.
"Which one of you is Logan?" Torrie asked. "Surrender yourself, and we'll let the other one leave."
"Do you think he's here?" Vick scoffed. "If he was, none of these fuckers would be standing here at this moment. He is supposed to be stronger than us. But they do appear to be quite appetizing, especially the girl. I wouldn't mind having a taste of her-"
As soon as he uttered those words, Snake kicked him in the face. However, even all his might wasn't sufficient to push Vick back.
"Snake, NO!"
Izna yelled, but it was too late. Vick already wrapped his hands around Snake's head and began choking him. She rushed in to save him, but Torrie stopped her, forcing her to look on as Vick slowly but surely overpowered Snake.
"Now be a good girl and watch." She whispered in Izna's ear before giving her face a lick.
But the next moment, a shadowy figure ran past them and the next thing they saw was Vick down on the ground, groaning in pain.
"Sorry, I'm late." Logan smiled at Izna.

A few minutes ago...
[You have leveled up.]
[You have leveled up.]
[You have leveled…]
The messages continuously flashed before Logan's eyes as he slaughtered zombie after zombie relentlessly. Listening to their cries was a feeling Logan used to love, but now he couldn't stop wanting them to die soundlessly.
Out of the five minutes he had borrowed from Izna and Snake, four were already up. However, Logan wasn't done.
Knowing he was running later, Logan headed towards one of their countless spawn points and began hunting them there.
This trick was called 'spawn camping' and was often used to farm resources and monster drops quickly. However, not many people did something like that in the tutorial because of the obvious reasons.
Staying the spawning location for extended periods of time was like inviting death over for dinner. One wrong step and a swarm of zombies would gobble one up in no time.
Not to mention, most of the players wouldn't even dare to stand against them with the low stats they had.
Logan himself wouldn't have done something so dangerous had he not been confident in his ability to defeat the zombies. On top of that, for every zombie he killed, two more spawned in its place. Therefore, the more zombies he hunted, the lower his chances of survival got.
"Just a few more..."
He was doing whatever he could to get the most overpowered title in the history of Devil's Assassin. If he could get his hands on it, his life would get easier, especially while fighting undead and corrupt creatures.
