Chapter 201: Growing Territory

When looking at the system, Zain thought he was in luck a little bit. Because according to his map, the Reborn group wasn't even something that was in this city, it was in a small town that was quite a drive away.

‘I guess it would make sense. It's not like they can have a secret room, doing all sorts of things in a big city like this.' Zain thought.

Eventually, as well, Zain believed that he would have to leave this place at some point. He didn't know why but there was just an initial attraction to this place for a reason.

‘There are a couple of things that I need to decide before leaving this place though.' Zain thought. ‘Do I complete some of the quests that I still have. There was the meteorite one. I guess due to how high-level of a quest it is, it would make more sense to find out more, and I can always come back here.'

With that Zain had made his decision, he would visit the Reborn group first, but that didn't mean he couldn't do a few things on his way there. Both him and Kelly were walking through the streets, and Kelly was blindly following him.

She had nowhere to go, no direction and the person who she felt was most like her now, was Zain. So she decided to travel with him to wherever this Reborn group was.

"So what are we looking for?" Kelly asked.

"We need a car, but the centre of the city is too cluttered. It would take a long time to drive out of the place and the noise would just attract attention. So we're walking to the edge of the city to see if we can find a clearer way out of this place."

The answer satisfied Kelly, but there was still a lot on her mind. When she asked Zain about how he knew this group, or why he thought they could help them, he didn't really have an answer, apart from that they might not.

His words didn't really give her confidence but she wanted to find out more about herself.

Eventually, like Zain had said, the two had walked out of the main centre where traffic would have been busy, and now were approaching what looked like a large school. There was a wall surrounding it and multiple entrances covered in blood.

When the two reached the main entrance, they could see multiple zombies roaming around it and in the open area, including children that had been turned as well.

"Is this the Reborn group area?" Kelly asked.

"Does it look like it to you?" Zain snappily replied. "I told you before. There is an underground carpark for the teachers in this place. We're going to be borrowing a car, but before that, we need to clear the area."

"Wait, by clear, you don't mean to get rid of all the zombies. In a school, there could be 1000's here. Why do we need to do that?" Kelly asked.

Raising his hand, Zain had three fingers up.

"First, I want to see your capabilities. While fighting the zombies, I want to see the limit of your powers, skills and more, and if the zombies will see you as an enemy. If your going to travel with me, I need to see everything you're able to do."

Putting one finger down, there looked to be two more points.

"Second, when this area is cleared it will become our base. We need a place to store things, and the school is large and secure. There is even a big wall so it's a good place to hold up in, if there is ever a need."

After that, Zain had one finger raised up, and just headed into the front of the school.

"Wait, didn't you say there were three points! What's the last point?" Kelly asked.

Zain's hand was now on the ground and she was wondering what he was doing. When his hand started to light up, soon she could see figures being summoned in the area around him. They were humans! No, she was wrong about that, they were zombies, and some of them she recognised well, such as Cobra.

The zombies quickly went into action and seeing that, Kelly had forgotten about the last point, but Zain hadn't; he just didn't say it out loud because it only made sense to him.

‘I need to see, if clearing the area, will make this my territory and just how large of a territory I can keep. The passive exp from areas is sure to be a game changer.

Inside the place, it seemed to be filled with mostly zombies. So Zain wouldn't lose exp, he decided to let the others do most of the work including Kelly. Watching her carefully, he noticed that she certainly was special and looked to be an all arounder.

Zain had done a lot to improve his stats, but she was just as fast, just as strong, and just as durable as well. The only thing was, she didn't have any of the skills to back it up. She had been scratched, and even bitten by a couple of zombies who would see her as hostile as soon as she started to attack them, including the regular zombies.

But with this, Zain could make out two things. Her healing capabilities were far superior than his, and it looked like she was unable to turn into a zombie, even though she wasn't one.

‘Does this mean she's immune? Maybe it's a good thing to keep her by my side. In some ways, she might even be a superior version of me, because I'm an undead that can still pass on the infection.' Zain thought to himself.

When the area was eventually cleared, the system reacted.

[The area is now clear and has become a claimable territory]

[Would you like to claim the Chovan Experimental School?]

[Yes]

[Territory has been claimed]

[0/100 Current protectors]

‘A 100? That's a large number. I guess it's because the place is a large one as well. It will take me a while to fill it up, but I can do it on the way to the Reborn group.'

Heading down to the carpark, there were plenty of cars to pick from, but he was searching for a large SUV that looked to be bulky and good and could take a few hits. Zain had eventually picked his car, even though there were a couple of sports cars to choose from, and his inner self wanted to pick them since he had never driven such things before, he chose not to.

Driving together, the two of them eventually left the city, and were finally on the way to the Reborn group. Sitting in the seat next to Zain, Kelly couldn't help but continue to look at him until words eventually blurted out of her mouth.

"I'm sorry." Kelly said. "You probably have no idea why I'm saying sorry to you, but it's because I prejudged you about your past. I know we don't know each other that well, but you've saved me more than once. I think I'm starting to know what type of person you are.

"Which is why I apologise. There must have been some mistake about you in your file at the school or something." Kelly smiled.

There was silence for a moment, until Zain replied.

"It's not a mistake, what you read about me, it's probably all true."

Saying these words, Zain started to think back, about his past.
