Chapter 281: Taking the stage 4



The group didn't want to get anywhere near the stage 4 titan. It was as if they had been told to go up against a giant, and they saw no way that their involvement could make a difference. Even the Dark Zombies currently fighting were struggling.

Several used weapons to attack the legs, but when they struck it, the blows would just bounce off the hard armour. There were larger Dark Zombie members with giant clubs who managed to whack the sides of the legs, leaving a big ring each time.

This seemed to have some effect on the stage 4, but it still wasn't enough to break through the armour.

The stage 4 itself, despite its size, wasn't completely slow. It swung its arm, and the Dark Zombies would often attempt to warn each other, but one person was too slow and had been slapped to the ground. Immediately, his body went flying in the air, and as he hit the ground, his bones could be seen twisting and breaking in ways they wouldn't on a normal human body.

When he eventually came to a stop, the zombie blinked a few times. "Ahhh, damn it!" the zombie shouted, and a few others rushed to his aid. He was still alive, and it was a good thing they were unable to experience pain.

Then there were those zombies capable of flight. Zain had never seen this before, but they had summoned wings from their backs and were flying in, striking at the stage 4's head.

It was annoying the large zombie, like a swarm of flies. Still, it demonstrated the sheer might of the stage 4. If it were to face just one of these zombies on its own, it would be able to beat every single one of them in a fight. But together, they were able to do something.

"Why isn't everyone taking part? What about you, Dart?" Anna asked.

"Only the zombies who think they have a chance at taking that thing out are participating," Dart explained. "The ones on the side, like us, know we don't stand a chance, or maybe we've tried before and failed. These guys have most likely all taken out a stage 3 before, so they think they can do this. They're blinded by their greed to get stronger.

"However, the gap between the stages is incredibly high. I don't bother because I know I can't beat it."

Zain looked around at the others who were watching, and that's when he spotted someone familiar.

"Then what about him, Carl... was that his name?" Zain asked, thinking that it was best to stop referring to him as the faceless man.

"Oh, him. Well, Carl is a different case," Dart explained. "He always gives everyone else a ten-minute head start. If he didn't, all the crystals would just end up falling into his hands. This is the Dark Zombie group, not the Carl group. Although there are no rules against it, if he wanted every crystal for himself, that's just something he has decided."

[New quest received]

[Defeat the stage 4 titan]

[Diamond reward available]

As soon as Zain saw the stage 4, the quest popped up, and due to the level of reward he would receive for completing it, he also knew that it would be a next to impossible task, unless there was one thing he could do.

And that was to wait until the very last moment and take the kill. But judging by how the other zombies were doing, it was unlikely that would happen either.

"I'll wait ten minutes as well, just to make it fair," Zain commented.

Dart couldn't help but laugh. There were many like Zain who were competitive and wanted to prove that they were the best among those present, but no one had ever defeated Carl. When they witnessed his strength, they quickly gave up on that idea.

Although the Dark Zombies seemed to be faring better now. Realising that they couldn't defeat stage 4 on their own, they began working together. The larger zombies, who seemed to possess greater strength with their clubs, took turns delivering powerful swings to one side of the stage 4's ankle.

It was a successful hit, causing the zombie to stumble to one knee. While it was in the midst of stumbling, the flying zombies charged forward, aiming piercing strikes at the top of its forehead.

A loud clang was heard, but the spear-like weapons they had used were bent in the attack, and there were no marks left on the stage 4 in the end.

Lifting its hands, the stage 4 swung them in an attempt to swat away the little fly-like zombies. One missed, while the other hit, taking another zombie out of the fight.

Multiple zombies jumped on its back, attempting to climb up to the back of its neck. They had a strong grip, and some seemed to have specially made equipment on their fingers for doing such a thing. But Zain had seen this before; he knew what the titan did when something was on its back, and he could only imagine how much worse it would be with a zombie this size.

Getting back up on its legs, the stage 4 jumped and fell with its back towards the ground. Some of the zombies let go and ran off, escaping whatever fate awaited them. Others were pulled out by their friends or the flying zombies. The zombie landed on its back, and thankfully, no one was hurt by its attack, but it was certainly a close call.

At that moment, Carl started to move forward. "Ten minutes are up, and things are looking a bit dangerous now anyway," Carl said.
