Level up Zombie

From the conversation, Zain concluded that Kun was a zombie that had yet to evolve. Although he did seem fast, it wasn't to the point where one believes it was super speed.

The fact was, Zain didn't know if Kun was even capable of evolving or levelling up like him, he needed more information, and perhaps this group of other zombies similar to him would be the place to find it.

Observing Kun, Zain noticed that he was a bit paranoid about things and wouldn't bother to explain why. He insisted on turning off all the lights and asked him not to stay as far away from the window as possible.

Although zombies didn't need sleep, resting appeared to decrease the energy depletion rate, and Kun refused to talk and put his finger on his own mouth every time Zain spoke, signalling him to remain silent. With all this, the latter had stopped there.

'I wonder why he's so paranoid at night. What is the big threat at night that we have to worry about? I mean, is there really something out there that's scarier than the Titan we fought against?' Zain wondered.

Honestly, Zain disliked doing nothing, if he were left to himself and his own thoughts, bad memories and visions would start to emerge, so before that could happen, he needed to distract himself with something else.

Hence, to keep himself distracted, he decided to think over how to best use his newly acquired stat points.

'After fighting that Titan, I doubt no matter how high I put my endurance stat, I wouldn't have armour as strong as that. Each path type has to have its advantages and disadvantages. If the Titan is an Aggressive type, then I shouldn't be able to reach that level. Otherwise, why even have the other types in the first place?' Zain believed.

Thinking about this, he wanted to put his other two stats in a different area.

'Should I go for a well-balanced character, or maybe I should..' There was one particular stat that intrigued him.

Intelligence.

Zain considered himself quite the clever guy when it came to things to do with Survival. Although he wasn't book smart like Skittle, intelligence might help him in other ways.

He felt a strange tingling sensation around his head, but other than that, everything seemed normal until another System notification prompt materialised in front of him.

[Your intelligence has increased. Now your body functionality will decrease at a slower rate.]

'This is…this is good.' Zain thought.

[Body functionality is at 88 Percent]

Energy didn't seem to be much of a problem for Zain. There were plenty of dead bodies on the street with their flesh left. However, for body functionality to stay up, he needed brains, which were almost impossible to come by.

The zombies would only eat that bit while leaving the rest of the body behind. This meant only fresh kill off someone who was uninfected or recently killed after being bitten could be used.

However, if increasing intelligence slowed down this process, he had more time to solve this problem.

'The only thing is, it doesn't say how much an intelligence point actually affects the decrease. A percentage of something would have been nice. I doubt it's a large number unless I placed a lot of points in it.'

The other thing was that intelligence at the moment felt like it had no further effect. While they were facing things like Titans and more, and with only Skittle by his side, he would need to make sure he was strong enough.,

[1 Point has been added to the strength.]

'For now, being a well-balanced character won't matter too much. After all, my evolution path focuses on controlling others.' Zain looked at Skittle. 'More strength would have done me well in the last fight, so I just went with that.'

With passing time, it seemed like Zain was treating this like a game, but he was good at games, so maybe it would do him well.

The following day had arrived, and the sunlight was shooting from the large glass panel windows and through the curtain gaps. Kun had somewhat dozed off on the sofa. He didn't go to sleep, but it was almost as if he had shut his mind off for the duration of the night.

That was when he suddenly heard an odd creaking noise coming from one of the other rooms. His eyes instantly shot open as he looked around, only to notice he was alone in the room.

'Follow current novels ON N (ovelB in.)',

'What is that, and where are the other two?' Kun thought as he pulled out a knife and pulled his balaclava over his face.

He started to creep over towards the source of the noise, and it was coming from one of the rooms. Slowly he opened the door and could finally see what was making the strange noise.

"What are you doing? Have you been doing that all night?" Kun asked as he looked on the floor and saw Zain topless doing push-ups.

One would think that Zombies might not have sweat, and Zain would have said the same thing before since he could do things without tiring, but that was not the case because sweat was dripping off his body.

All that energy from eating flesh had to come out of the body somehow, one way or another.

Zain stood up now that he had completed his quest, and his whole body was in view, glistening from the sunlight entering the room. Maybe it was because of the sweat or that he had just worked out, but Kun could see how defined his muscles were for the first time.

What was also surprising though, was that there were quite a few scars on his body. It was hard to determine where they were or how old they were, but some were long and others small in different places.

"Were you doing that all night?" Kun asked. "I did hear some noise, but I decided to just ignore it, and why are you even doing this stuff."

Reaching one of the towels he had taken from the bathroom, Zain wiped the sweat off his body while replying.

"It's routine. I used to do the same thing before. I don't really know how our bodies work. I wonder if they are similar to how they were before. But I don't want everything I worked for just to go away.

"Fortunately, it looks like I'm in better shape than ever. I was never able to do 500 push up in one set before. It makes me wonder if I can naturally improve this body as well. Have you tried this?"

Honestly, Kun didn't really know what Zain was saying, and he was starting to think, for a student, this person was quite strange. Five hundred push-ups in one sitting, Kun believed that would be impossible for him even in his current state right now.

"Didn't you say you were a student?" Kun asked. "Why do you have a body like that? Why are you training so hard? Now that I think of it, how do you even know how to use a gun so well? Are you actually special ops, a secret agent or something? You can tell me if you want. We don't care about your past."
