Apocalypse, I Can Modify Infinitely

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Crowe entered dormitory Room 605. He carefully walked away from the balcony with the alloy blade in his hand. He walked toward the wardrobe and quickly snuck up against the wall, which was next to the door of the room. 

In the middle of the living room, there was a shard of broken mirror that was stabbed on the sofa. The shard was at a perfect angle that was able to reflect the corridor that was visible through the door. Crowe squatted down slightly and scouted the situation outside of the room through the reflection.

Outside of the room, the emergency lights flickered and there were insulated black wires that were hanging from the ceiling. The entire corridor was covered in garbage and blood. 

As Crowe swept through the corridor, he noticed there were two zombies wandering about roughly 30 feet away. After some thought, Crowe gently pushed open the cracked door of the room and there was a crushed soda can right below his feet.

Clang!

Crowe gave the soda can a strong kick and it flew straight into the power transmission box on the opposite side. The soda can rolled a few times before it came to a stop.

The loud noise alerted the two wandering zombies. When the zombies turned around, they dragged their rotten bodies and immediately moved toward Room 605 where Crowe was. After a minute of waiting, two vague moving shadows could be seen through the holes in the door.

‘Here they are!’

A breeze blew through the holes in the door, carrying the scent of blood along with it and the pungent smell that caused Crowe to hold his breath. Under the dim lighting and the dust floating around the air, Crowe kept his eyes on the broken mirror shard. The alloy blade that was in his right hand shined with a metallic glow while his muscles tensed up. Due to anticipation, Crowe’s palm was drenched in sweat. 

The atmosphere was overwrought as Crowe waited for the zombies in anticipation. Once the door was being pushed open, that would be the moment that the zombies will be met with a thunderous welcome. At this moment, a minute felt like an eternity as time passed slowly.

Suddenly, the footsteps stopped abruptly! Crowe was now right next to the zombies, only separated by the door. He was so close to the zombies that he could hear their irregular breathing sounds.

Creak!

The sound of objects colliding against the wooden door can be heard. A shriveled hand, stained with purplish-black blood suddenly pierced through the hole in the door.

Slash!

Right in the heat of the moment, Crowe raised his blade and brought the zombie down. His muscles bulged, and the sharp edge of the alloy blade swung downwards at an extreme speed, causing a sharp whistle as the blade cut through air.

The alloy blade sliced through the flesh and bones without any resistance, like a hot knife slicing through butter. This was followed by a roar of pain from the zombie on the other end, whose wrist was lopped off. The scene before Crowe was as if he was wielding a battle axe and he was casually splitting a cucumber.

Since the blade was gifted from the system, it performed spectacularly. Crowe was enjoying the moment, before being interrupted.

Boom!

The two zombies outside the door were enraged. They clawed at the door in madness, they waved their arms and smashed onto the door that was on the verge of collapsing. Eventually, the fine cracks gradually expanded. The wooden door had already reached its limits and subsequently shattered with a loud bang.

Roar… Roar!

The blood-red eyes of the zombies flashed with bloodthirsty cruelty. The two zombies charged in toward Crowe without restrain. Both of the zombies looked young. Parts of their dirty hair had been torn off and their scalps were exposed. Based on the tags on their chests, they should be staff members of Bastille University. Without any hesitation, they launched at him.

“Great timing!”

Crowe, who was hiding behind the door, had a fierce look in his eyes as he suddenly burst out. He raised the alloy blade in his right hand and swung his arm down. The 23-centimeter alloy blade completely sank into the temple of the head of the first zombie.

Grrk! Grrk!

Black zombie blood spurted out almost immediately and the expression on its hideous face froze.

Headshot! It was a one-hit kill! It was simple yet brutal and the zombie was now dead under Crowe’s blade.

Roar!

At this time, the other zombie also reacted. It was extremely violent with its only eye completely filled with blood. It opened its bloody mouth and tried to bite Crowe’s neck.

Crowe raised his leg and kicked the zombie’s knee with three times the force of an average person. After a series of unpleasant bone-breaking sounds, the zombie’s knee was completely shattered. The body lost it’s balance and slammed right onto the floor.

Slash!

It was as if Crowe had anticipated the outcome, he swiftly pulled out his alloy blade and drove it right through the right eye of the remaining zombie.

The second kill!

Crowe’s movements were fast, precise, and clean. In just five seconds, he thought of a counterattack and killed the two zombies in a series of perfect movements.

“Ding! Congratulations, host. You have successfully killed a low-level zombie. Reward Points +1!”

“Ding! Congratulations, host. You have successfully killed a low-level zombie. Reward Points +1!”

Hearing the familiar system notification once again in his mind and the first notification of two reward points, Crowe was stunned briefly. He turned to look at the two zombies lying on the ground, before letting out a sigh of relief. His face now brimmed with a trace of excitement.

“The power of this alloy blade is awesome! When combined with the strength of my increased attributes, the blade almost cut through the bones of this zombie!”

“But, what are these reward points?”

After he took a deep breath, Crowe couldn’t help but feel a little puzzled.

“System, I require some explanation.”

A few seconds later!

Ding!

“Host, apart from the ability to modify everything, there is also an additional reward panel on the Infinite Modification System. There are a large number of missions to be completed. Upon completion, generous rewards will be distributed according to the mission difficulty!”

“Ding! For more details of the mission, please refer to the rewards manual.”

“What about the rewards points?”

With a puzzled look, Crowe opened the system inventory. Inside, there was a book which was not there previously. “When did this book appear?”

Curious, Crowe opened the reward manual in his mind. There were a few system notifications on it. It was the points he got from killing the two zombies. After he flipped through it, Crowe suddenly realized something and was excited. This meant that other than being able to modify everything, he had another way to obtain the means to strengthen himself. 

It also meant that the apocalyptic zombies were no longer so scary anymore. Crowe smiled. He knew that he had just swapped places with the zombies and the hunted will now become the hunter! 

After a while of digesting the contents of the manual, Crowe roughly understood the main functions of the system.

“I’m hungry. It’s time to look for food and water.”

Although the battle with the two zombies only lasted for a few seconds, he used up all of his mental strength, especially when he concentrated all his focus just to ensure that he was able to kill the zombies. In that particular instant when he burst out, he had used up most of the remaining strength in his body.

‘All the things in Room 605 have been looted. Now, I have to think about how to collect supplies.’

Thinking of this, Crowe couldn’t wait any longer. The air was filled with the smell of decay, as both zombies had died here. Besides, there was no food or water and there was no reason to linger any longer in this room..
