Chapter 95 95: Fairy And Ghoul
Boom!
Over a hundred crimson blood lances shot forward, the sound of their impact shattering glass as dozens of zombies fell to pieces. The sound echoed throughout the area, sending shockwaves across the building as shards flew everywhere. It was like fireworks exploding inside his skull!
But he ignored it; he focused on the job ahead of him. And then he saw them! Dozens upon hundreds of zombies are heading straight towards him!
Alex stepped forward but remained able to defend the fairy at any moment. His finger snapped as dozens of zombies exploded with his corpse explosion spell, and more shattered into dust. The horde had vanished in seconds as if they had never existed.
Then he turned his attention to the shopping mall itself, noticing a giant hole blasted clean through the entrance as Stage 1 mutants began to pour out with the ordinary zombies.
"Heh... idiots!"
[Dominating Aura] [Berserk]
His body began to pulsate like a lion declaring its territory. The entire area within 400 metres of him in a circle began to fluctuate; zombies moved slower, their power restricted by a small amount, as Alex stepped forward with his large nodachi, swinging it like a sword, slicing through the air, cutting down anything that dared to approach him, including mutant zombies with ease.
With a single swing, he cut through a dozen zombies and then another 20, moving forwards, pushing past the crowd, stepping over bodies without hesitation. With his enhanced strength and reflexes, he could easily step on the heads of the dead, smashing them flat and killing the ones behind him as if they were nothing more than insects.historical
In moments, the entire front line was cleared; it took less than 30 minutes. Then, after ensuring no one left alive, Alex walked up to the hole and entered the mall. As expected, the mall was packed with dead and rotting corpses and many broken glass bottles lying on the ground, marking where they drank from.
'I don't have long... soon [Unbreaking Will] will end... and I'll be fucked!' Alex thought, cleaning Eien and tossing the corpses at his feet deeper inside; he could smell the more intelligent zombies; the mutants above stage 1 were hidden, watching him with fierce eyes. There must have been nearly 500 of them, maybe more.
"...Damn..."
Alex looked around; he knew exactly how powerful these things were: they used to be human but mutated into something else entirely. This meant their brains were different and similar compared to normal humans or even stage 2 mutants. Their senses must also have increased because he could see their eye's glowing with slight intelligence as they hid.
They had sharp teeth, claws, and razor-like nails growing longer and sharper. These creatures were intelligent; they understood their situation better than any other creature.
But Alex didn't care; he could feel those zombies only managed to grow the fairy into a smaller ball, far from enough! So he continued throwing the corpses stacking up piles near the areas he could feel these strong enemies, before detonating the corpses with a powerful explosion with his [Corpse Explosion] spell!
It caused massive explosions that sent clouds of smoke rising in the sky, blocking out sunlight for a short period, but that was fine. After all, this was a mall filled with thousands of people, and there was nowhere for them to hide.
There was no need for stealth, as Alex charged forward using the rubble to clear himself of obstacles and reached the central core at the mall's centre. From here, the corridors stretched out further, connecting to several floors. Each floor had concrete walls, wooden doors and staircases leading upwards. Most likely, each level contained offices, meeting rooms and storage facilities for goods, food and supplies.
And there was much of that stuff, judging by the sheer quantity.
Boom!
A loud sound, causing the entire mall to shake; Alex stopped observing the white light flooding into his body, the sensation of his coins reaching 2,000 also irrelevant as the fountain behind him exploded as a 3-meter tall giant zombie with a hulking body smashed into him, the impact dazing him as he was sent flying towards the entrance, his ribs shattered upon hitting a vast marble stone, his right arm snapped and bent the wrong way before dragging himself up, Alex was on a time limit.
Would his [Unbreakable Will] end or reinforcements come first, as the giant zombie finally came into view, towering over his weakened form? He had thick muscles bulging his chest, stomach, shoulders and thighs. His hands gripped a rusty axe as he swung it downwards, ready to crush his head in Al.ex rolled backwards, barely avoiding death, as he pushed away the falling debris, climbing back onto his feet.
"These damn zombies.... can't even let me look cool in front of my women..." He muttered as he glared at the giant beast, whose huge jaw opened, revealing rows of yellowed and decaying teeth, as his tongue flopped out between them. Its mouth smelled rotten saliva, and its nostrils flared and snorted. The whole thing stunk so severely even a vampire wouldn't dare drink the blood flowing freely from his veins.
Something about mutants caused them to become disgusting to taste or smell, even ghouls who fed off any carrion or flesh. He lifted Eien, the nodachi glimmering with a violent red light as if angry that her master was injured.
"Ah, I love how you pamper me so much!" Alex mused as he stroked the grip of his handle.
The sheer amount of level-ups and white light only faded as his mind stopped throbbing, returning some form of rational thought as he looked at the powerful mutant zombie and the countless zombies that now flooded from the upper floors. More than 6,000 were coming as they rattled and shook the flimsy steel gates.
Alex took deep breaths, calming his nerves as he glanced at the ceiling, which seemed like it might fall at any second due to the shaking floor shaking beneath his feet. He needed to act fast. If he was lucky, he might be able to get the fairy fully restored and then leave.
That wasn't going to happen, though.
The mutant zombie's colossal body began to charge at Alex, who took a defensive stance rather than fleeing. For a split second, Alex wondered what kind of spell he should use next when a familiar voice rang out in his ears; it was a woman laughing loudly!
"Oh wow... I've never seen one of those before, but it looks like he has a new friend." A young female voice spoke, followed by laughter.
"Ah, Stella.... just the woman I need!" Alex shouted, his body twisting as the giant mutant slammed forward, losing its balance from the deadly charge and slamming into the open outside.
"Stella, you and Mildred control the girls; make sure not of the zombies in here get out; if you do well... I'll reward all of you." His voice was winded as he dashed forward, piercing the giant's side with Eien and slicing across its thick muscles before being swatted back by the monster, which quickly pulled itself from the destroyed floor.
"Idiot.... we would help you without rewards... hearing all those things... why are you so cold on the outside and passionate inside?!?" She whispered, before flying back to the girls around 300 metres behind her in complete outfits, armoured to the teeth, with their spears, swords and longbows, standing close to where the fairy was resting, now both her legs were crystalline, with her abdomen half transformed and her left arm fully regrown.
Stella landed perfectly beside her fellow Vesta, smiling broadly at Alex while waving her hand to stop her sisters. They nodded as they readied themselves to attack.
As they did, he grasped Eien tightly, facing off with the huge giant, his face filled with a brilliant smile as he activated ghoul tactics with ALL the women here, suddenly feeling as if he was torn apart, but granting every woman the power of +4 to all attributes, while he lost 20 in each. It cost him dearly but gave him an insane advantage against the giant mutant and the colossal horde.
'Now! Let us dance!'
A strange, melodic voice resounded through his mind, and he grinned at the sight of the giant charging towards him again; despite Alex being slower and weaker, the fact that all his Vesta were fighting beside him, their arrows and spells bursting forth, like some fantasy movie, crushing all the zombies and mutants that tried to pour from the small entrance, as they piled up, Alex snapped his fingers, dodging the troll-like zombie's massive arm, causing the entrance to explode clearing the path for the next wave.
This was unbelievab—
"Gahhhh?!"
Suddenly, Alex felt a jolt through his body as the world spun around him. Then he was drifting in the air, a powerful kick from the wounded giant smashing his stomach as blood and vomit poured from his mouth; unable to recover, the mutant dashed forward to finish the job, with both arms in the air as a hammer.
[Unbreakable Will] had ended all the pain, damage and suffering she endured, from overdrawing his willpower and magic to the constant battling without rest or sleep, causing him to feel a moment of delayed pain as he was still paralyzed in thin air.
She watched helplessly as the giant raised its fist high, preparing to smash her head in, but a sudden burst of bright light engulfed the giant, sending it crashing down to the ground. But it rose again, staggering forwards and trying to regain its footing, but it couldn't stand against the for a moment as a spear created out of complete flames danced through the air; beside Mildred, suddenly only an empty husk remained.
"Fairy?" The soft voice was different from Samantha, high pitched, like a little witch tempting, but soothing at the same time, as Alex looked up, her body covered in his jacket, the slight glimpse of her pure white fur, the bouncing breasts far larger than Samantha, but the hair in a ponytail, the sense of the bond.
This girl was the fairy that formed from Samantha!
She could sense the thoughts of her cute darling prince, looking back as a silvery flame began to swirl around her hand.
"My dear prince, the name is Althea..."
Boom!
Instantly after that moment, Alex's eyes became burned and blinded with a silver flame as the only thing he could feel or sense was the resounding booms that bombarded the mutant as if she was unloading rockets onto his body.
His eyes shimmered blue, and using [Eagle Eyes], his heart was instantly at ease.... the words written and the feelings.... Alex had succeeded; she was identical to him.
Althea was her Faust!
Samantha wasn't dead but would return in the future more vigorous than ever!
Alex's eyes and mind faded into darkness the moment he was relaxed, too far over his limits, as Althea just sighed, with a broad smile, turning to face the colossal mutant, now missing both his arms and most of the jaw.
It was amusing now that she was so short, but her silver flaming spear tore apart the monster's flesh like it was paper or cheese.
The moment they felt morale of Alex explodes so high, the girls were all like wild vixens, hunting for their mate, tearing apart the entire horde of zombies; however, there were countless wounds and injuries, but no deaths, and only a few girls would need to rest while their devoured limbs were regenerated.
When the fighting ended, Althea was the first woman to reach his side as she climbed into his arms, watching his face with her ruby jewels before pressing her lips onto his neck and biting into his flesh, feeling his sweet and sticky blood pour down her throat and lips, causing her body to shudder with orgasmic pleasure, as her only source of food.
Was him.
A side-effect of her almost becoming a zombie.
