Chapter 153: Trigger happy

Things had been hectic for the museum group, especially for Dave. Not too long ago, he had experienced a life-and-death situation on his outing. Having gotten out of that from the skin of his teeth, he had hoped that he wouldn't need to deal with a similar situation for a while.

However, fate had other plans, and once again, Dave found himself in a dire situation. Coming to the hospital, something that would have been a simple task, easy in the past, was now a nightmare, and the eyes of all the people around were those of monsters, worse than the zombies themselves.

Regardless of this, one person had managed to catch the attention of them all. Zain stood there with not just one handgun but two in his hands. They were both pointing toward the large group of people, and Cody was not too far behind him.

‘It's…it's Zain, you finally got here. Where were you?' Dave asked in his head, but he didn't say those words out loud; he was too filled with joy to have his life just saved for that.

"I'm here to see the doctor, and if any of you get in my way, I won't be afraid to shoot. I'm not as nice as he is. " Zain stated, and as he walked over, the people cleared a clear pathway for him.

They then saw him step over the body he had just shot, lying on the floor dead with the blood slowly draining out of him.

"You did a good job," Zain said as he moved by Dave's side. "I got caught up in something, so part of what happened here is my fault."

Dave shook his head as he heard these words.

"You can't say that; it's twice now that you've saved me. I don't even know how I'm going to repay you."

In the middle of the two talking, Cody was getting ready to open the door. His hands were shaking as he was worried about what happened to Kelly, not just her but Pink and Kun, who had heard him as well.

"Come on, there's still a lot of us compared to them. What are we doing standing here? We should all rush and get them together." A voice was heard crumbling from the crowd, and many of them started to mumble after that.

Dave had seen this scene before because it was exactly what had happened to him. At first, they were all frightened, but slowly their confidence grew, and soon they would lash out and attack them again.

"Who said that?" Zain shouted out. "Bring out which one said those words right now, or I'm going to start shooting the front row of you all one by one."

There were darting eyes around the room, and unlike with Dave, there was confidence in Zain's voice, which eventually led to the older gentleman with a grey beard being pushed out towards the front.

"What are you guys doing!" The man said, turning around. "We should all go toward him together!"

*BANG

"AHHH!" The man screamed as he felt the bullet hitting him; holding onto his bleeding thigh, he shouted,

"I've been shot! He shot me, he shot me!"

Zain walked over to the man and pointed the gun at his head.

"Stop making noise if you want to live," Zain stated, and the man immediately shut up.

"If any of you try to come forward, or go through these doors, once we pass them, I will shoot, and I will kill all of you. Because unlike my friend here, I am not afraid to pull the trigger, as you have seen twice now.

"Because there is one thing you should all know. To me, my life is a lot more important than yours, and I will do anything to survive."

At that point, Zain had turned his back toward them, a brave move because if the others were going to act, now would be the time, but not a single one did, as they saw the man holding onto his knee and the dead on the floor.

After that, he pushed open the double doors and continued to walk.

‘That was a little lesson to you, Dave. When your life's on the line, this is how you need to act if you are to survive in the world.'

"Cody, lead the way. Take me to Kun and Pink, and then you go after the doctor if you're confident enough. If not, then you can always wait, but it might be too late by then." Zain honestly said.

Cody gritted his teeth and nodded. He couldn't just rely on Zain; he needed to do things himself.

As they were ready to run through the hallway and to the staircase on the other side, Zain stopped hearing a ding sound.

[The system has recognised the two Reborn Zombies as your allies]

[Would you like to add them to your party?]

‘A party system, like in a game? Wait, if I add them to my party, then won't I be able to see things like their stats or health and where they are? Maybe then the other skill will be able to locate them as well.'

Thinking of this, Zain immediately clicked on the [Yes] icon.

[A party has been formed]

[Party members will not use up slots in your Horde]

[A new quest has been received]

[Your party members are in trouble. Rescue and regroup with your party members and eliminate the threat.]

[Reward: Gold card]

‘A gold card reward, that's quite the nice reward, but then that means that this quest might be a little difficult.'

Zain turned his head and looked back at the door with the people on the other side. Maybe there was a way to make this quest a bit easier.
