Carnage

Dilan's plan had been simple.

By attracting the monster's attention in the hallway, he prevented attacked from behind him.

Everything behind him was cleared, and the patient rooms with only one zombie inside were locked.

As such, the only way to attack him was through the front, which made things much easier.

If the huge monster he presumed to be some sort of evolved rat or Krendel were to attack him without caring about its brethren, it would simply rush through the hallway, bulldozing its way through dozens of monsters to reach him.

This would allow Dilan to focus on fighting against the stronger monster because their fight would kill the monsters around him, either way.

On the other hand, if the huge monster were to care about its brethren, it wouldn't trample over its own kind.

And this was even better than the first scenario. It rid Dilan of his opponents without even doing anything so he couldn't complain.

It was an efficient plan that didn't require a lot of thought to be implemented.

The only thing one needed was courage, and no fear of being injured.

Because both applied to Dilan, he was ready to face the beasts ahead.

The large monster had yet to enter his sight, but that was to his advantage.

Using the momentum, he catapulted himself ahead, wielding the two longer rat horns.

Killing the Krendels and horned rats was quite easy with the two weapons.

They were sharp enough to inflict injuries as long as enough force was used.

His strength was double that of both the horned rats and Krendels.

Only the Krendels' agility was slightly faster than half of Dilan's agility stat.

But that was not nearly enough to get their hands on Dilan as adrenaline was pumping through his entire body was overflowing with the excitement to fight with all his mind.

It had been accumulated because his battles had always ended way too quickly.

His strength and combat prowess had improved considerably but the monsters he had been fighting since the last six days were still at the same level, except for a few mutated zombies, who had given him some tough time. But, even they ended up dying at his hands.

This had been frustrating as he had been restricted.

Yet, right now, he was able to give his all, and fight for a very long time, at that.

The fight was bound to be difficult to win, but that was the best part about the current situation.

Kicking at the masses of rats skittering over the ground, he made several rats fly through the air.

Using his weapon, he slashed two rats while they were still mid-air, only for their blood to splatter on his face.

Entering amidst the crowd of monsters with fast strides, his shoes trampled over many monsters under his weight.

Fighting like a ferocious beast that had been unleashed, Dilan slashed, thrust, kicked and stomped on monsters.

Using all kinds of tactics in order to defeat and kill the opponents around him, a vibrant smile emerged on his face.

It made him look like an insane killer as his entire body was drenched in blood.

His brown hair was unrecognizable, and it was almost as if his sky blue eyes had been affected as well.

The beautiful, once crystal clear eyes now shone with a maniacal delight, while blood was streaked across one of it.

However, this didn't restrict Dilan in any way, and neither did it harm him owing to the passive [Lesser Immunity]!

Never halting his fight, Dilan turned into a flash as he advanced several meters, just to retreat once again.

Even if his entire being told him to keep advancing and to slaughter his way through the masses of monsters, the last remnants of his rational mind prevented him from doing this.

He had no way of securing himself against attacks from behind which meant that he had to be extra vigilant.

Thus he advanced several meters, slaughtering everything in his way before he had to retreat.

Unsure of how much time had passed or how many monsters he killed, Dilan just noticed that his hands were slick with blood making him lose his grasp around the two rat horns.

That was an unnecessary annoyance.

But instead of wasting his time, Dilan threw the horns towards his opponents, puncturing one, while another one was hit with the horn's backside, knocking it out.

Wiping off the blood on the rather clean backside of his clothes, he got ready to kill again.

He had backed off several meters, giving him the necessary space to get hold of the Reinforced Stone Spear.

Meanwhile, he kicked a Krendel, sending it flying in the crowd of monsters before he could start the second round of his carnage.

Making proper use of the Reinforced Stone spear, he slashed out, slicing several horned rats in half as if he was cutting vegetables.

Using his extraordinary high speed, it was possible for him to defeat dozens of monsters within seconds.

'A halbert, glaive, or a scythe would be a perfect weapon,' Dilan thought, only to keep smiling as he ended the life of one monster after another.

He had long since lost count of how many monsters died at his hands, but Dilan was pretty sure that the number of corpses in front of him was close to the accumulated number of monsters he eradicated before this fight!

And this was something exciting, highly addictive, and he wanted more of it!!

As such, the moment Dilan made eye contact with the huge Krendel that was more than two meters tall, and had a huge physique, he couldn't help but feel a shiver run down his spine.

'Finally!!'

The huge Krendel had a horrendous-looking pig head, a body that resembled a brown-furred Yeti, thick legs and feet that flattened one horned rat under them after another as it mercilessly squashed them.

While walking through the huge halfway, the monster looked eerily calm.

The four razor-sharp claw-like black fingers of the huge Krendel scratched over the hallway's walls on both sides, leaving trails on the blood-soaked walls.

But that was not even the most interesting because it almost looked like the huge Krendel smiled when it noticed that Dilan looked at it.

Dilan's right hand ached a lot, but he had forgotten about it during the slaughter before.

Even the earlier battles had made him concentrate on killing beasts making it look like his injury had never existed.

But right now, an itching sensation emerged from the central knuckle on his right fist, causing him to feel like he had to enter the fight immediately.

Otherwise, his right hand would act up, preventing him from releasing his peak combat prowess during the next few minutes.

Dilan knew that this was required to fight the dwindling number of weaker beasts while trying to find the weak spot of the giant Krendel.

Because it didn't seem to possess one!

'The spear will break the moment it pierces through the Krendel's fur. That is if it will be able to do that in the first place…'

Licking his dry lips, he prepared for the attack.

Slashing, thrusting, and kicking, he annihilated the beasts around him.

Meanwhile, the huge Krendel didn't take a single glance at the monsters it mashed as it kept advancing.

When it saw that Dilan killed all the monsters around him, it began to smile and didn't think much as it used its strength to push ahead.

With a mighty push, its speed accelerated at once, crossing the limit Dilan was able to reach with his heightened Agility.

It was only a small difference, but Dilan couldn't help but feel a little bit dumbfounded.

'It's not a monster that focuses on Strength or Health??'
