RE:BORN Zombie

“I can feel the presence of something.” Victor said as he scanned his surroundings.

He couldn’t see anything, but he could sense the presence of it. While he looked around for some seconds trying to find whatever it was he was feeling the presence of, the system gave him a prompt.

Beep

[Ghost Gecko Level 20]

“Ghost? Is it really a ghost? Like with no physical form?” Victor asked.

[It is a creature with the ability to enter a ghost state for a period of time] The system answered.

“Well, that’s cool.” Victor said, as he turned forward and activated his skill, [Negative Burst] Since It dealt magical damage, the ghost form was useless and definitely not an advantage.

[Killed Ghost Gecko]

After that, a whitish reptilian creature fell from the dungeon ceiling behind Victor, lifeless.

“Not bad. Will I be able to turn invisible after integrating it into myself with evolution?” Victor asked the system.

[The creature’s invisibility seems to be the effect of a skill, simply having the body does not guarantee you having it’s skills] fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

[If the skill is analyzed from the sample provided, it might be possible to gain the skill]

“I see. That also works well for me.”

As Victor kept exploring, the dungeon started blessing him little by little as he ran into more Ghost Geckos, exactly 7, and 3 other Grey Lycans.

“This was a good harvest. Status.”

Victor had leveled up twice, and also collected enough evolution material from both the grey wolves and the ghost gecko.

He had gone very deep into the floor at this point, but still hadn’t found the way to the next floor. After walking around for a while more, he noticed something on the walls by one side of the cave. He had been looking for something like this as he suspected it, but finally, he had seen one.

The markings on the cave wall weren’t something ancient or runic, they were just directions left behind by those that were here before him, most definitely the adventurers. “This is what I’ve been looking for.” Victor said as he approached the wall with the inscriptions. From there on, Victor began following the inscriptions and gradually made his way to the path that led to the next floor.

“Finally here.” Victor said, with the dead body of a grey lycan dragged along with his hand. He dropped the body where he stood, and then proceeded into the path that led to the next floor.

The next floor wasn’t so different, same terrain as the previous floor. The only difference with this one was that monsters didn’t shy away and were in abundance, to an extent. At least when compared to the previous floor they were.

There was something Victor had a problem with, though. This world was one where everyone had a level, but he wasn’t sure if everyone also had a system. Good thing was unlike himself, the stronger one gets, the harder it gets to grow in level, and no bonus exp is given, this was not a game world. Because of this, Victor was sure that he had a cheat on himself. It was like going to a mecha war and you could use ‘cpktnwt’ simply god-like.

“With this, doesn’t that mean there’ll be a lot of weak people? I haven’t even reached level 30 and I already require up to 400,000 exp to level up. This is simply insane.” Victor said. He could only imagine the amount of exp he would need when he has to level up to say level 200 or something. “Will I even be able to get such an amount?” Victor queried.

Either way, he couldn’t dwell on this matter now. It was simply far too early for that. As Victor first stepped into the 41st floor, he could already hear the movement of monsters around close-by. “This is better than the last floor, I have to use this opportunity and level up in this dungeon.” The adventurers said this dungeon he was in was an abnormal one, so he couldn’t say for sure if dungeons with such high level monsters were in other places.

When Victor had explored this floor he was in a bit, and killed a couple of its monsters, it was clear what kind of floor it was. This was definitely an insect stage kind of floor, as he had only been encountering large ants that always attacked in groups.

This was sure to be one of the toughest floors mainly because of the monster type. Even low level ants are difficult to kill as they don’t die easily and have a rather tenacious lifeforce. Now however, the ants had extremely strong defenses with their though exoskeletons, and their attacking capability was nothing to scuff at either.

The ants weren’t the typical ones that looked like giant ants, rather they looked like a giant ant that had some sort of mutation and gained a bit from the mantis and a spider. It was quite clear they were ants, but they had eight legs, using six for mobility as normal and the first pair as weapons. The front legs resembled thick blades and could slice through rock easily, coupled with their extremely strong mandibles that looked completely horrifying-

Even with all this, to Victor, it was nothing much to show off. He could easily break the exoskeleton like cardboard, and the blade-like pair of hands that were supposed to strike terror couldn’t even leave a proper scratch on his body. Though, it did tear his trousers quite a bit.

Before anything, Victor had already thought of a good way to use the ant after extracting some evolution material from it.

As it turned out, blood could also be used as evolution material. This Victor already knew, but didn’t rely on it since it was more efficient to just eat the flesh and get it from there than indulge in the process of draining blood. This, was for other monsters.

These ants seemed to have most of their insides to be more jelly-like and nothing similar to their exoskeleton, and since Victor wasn’t going to stay there and chew on rock like material, he found a way to suck out the insides of the ants. Making the process way faster, and also easier.

At this point, he had collected a lot of evolution material, and before going to the next floor, he thought to do some experiment first.

“This will be very interesting.”
