Chapter 20 – Login
Where to go has already been decided with Suni.
Rather than fantasy, I thought that modern zombies would be weaker.
Zombies seen in old zombie movies are disasters for ordinary people, but for Awakeners, they must be strong enough to be F-class monsters.
Language was also a problem.
I went to Pantera, but I had to keep in mind the possibility that the language might not work.
In many ways, District 23 seemed less risky than Pantera.
“District 23.”
– Booung.
The rectangular silver passage shimmered, revealing a distorted landscape as if paint had been stirred.
The scenery was distorted so it couldn’t be confirmed accurately, but it looked like a modern city.
The door where there was resistance disappeared and my hand went in.
“Oh!”
Surprised, he pulled out his hand.
I carefully examined the hand I took out, but there was nothing wrong with it.
“Are you entering with this?”
[Master, be careful. You cannot log out for 24 hours.]
Sunni seemed worried and warned.
“I know. Sunny secretary.”
The body was already fully armed.
At least, he was only wearing the company’s combat suit given to him by Jin-ah, but even this was a considerable defensive power.
All the necessary items were in the inventory.
“Okay, let’s go.”
I moved my steps and put my body into the door where the scenery shook.
In an instant, the scenery changed.
I could see the clear blue sky in the unaccustomed silence.
‘Rooftop?’
And a message popped up in front of my eyes.
〈 Quest Happened!!〉
〈 Remove erosion.〉
〈Additional XP for killing corrosives.〉
〈Kill 10 Lesser Eroders Reward: 1〉 Skill Points
〈 Intermediate Corruption Kill Reward: 1〉 Skill Points
〈 Greater Corruption Kill Reward: 5〉 Skill Points
〈 Superb Erosion Killer Reward: 10〉 Skill Points
Skill points were like the source of my strength.
They say it gives you skill points.
A skill point that can only be obtained by leveling up.
After all, I realized that it was a quest rather than a daksa.
“Did you expect to come sooner?”
I regret it a little, but as an Awakener, it was a worry that I was full.
I ran a scan, but nothing was detected.
There were no monsters or people.
‘Can the scan detect an erosion object?’
Originally, monsters in the world are largely divided into two types.
Erosion from dimensional cracks and monsters at the gate.
If the corroding body was similar to the monster in the original world, it would be detected.
‘If it’s an erosion body, is it the same as the monster in the original world?’
But I didn’t know that until I saw it.
Looking around, it seemed to be on the roof of an old Korean apartment with about 15 floors.
‘By the way, where did all my clothes go?’
Apparently, he was wearing the company’s combat suit given to him by Jina before entering.
However, what she was wearing was a tight black battle suit that had become a skill, and she was wearing one with her daughter.
[Items in the inventory are fine.]
It seemed that things other than me and the inventory could not pass through.
‘Shit. I should have brought the suit into the inventory.’
“Give me one tracksuit.”
[Yes. Master.]
My body was wearing my favorite sportswear in an instant.
It was one of the convenient inventory uses using Suni.
Once I tasted this comfort, I couldn’t get out of it.
In the back, there was a black rectangular passageway that seemed to have been turned off.
When I put my palm on it, a message comes to mind.
〈 Cannot log out until save point is active.〉
〈 23 hours 56 minutes 46 seconds until save point activation〉
The cooldown was running.
“A save point?”
〈Do you want to specify a new save point?〉
〈 Insufficient save points. Setting a new save point will cause the old save point to disappear.〉
〈Installing a new savepoint will take 24 hours.〉
A passage like a rectangular door.
When I logged in, the entry point seemed to be a save point.
Save points increase when you increase the skill level.
It means that if you add one more save point, you can install this door in one more place.
So, are you saying that you can choose between the two to enter?
What is the cooldown like?
Does it apply separately?
I had a lot of questions, but seeing that the message didn’t respond, it seemed that I could check it by raising my login skill.
If there is a separate cooldown, wouldn’t it be worth raising the skill called login on your own?
Still, the fact that they were ranked at the bottom of the list did not change.
Reconnaissance came first.
I looked around the rooftop, but there was nothing special.
The roof door was locked.
I was about to tear it off and go down, but I took out a drone from my inventory and flew it.
When the drone’s altitude was lowered, a zombie appeared.
The sound of the drone seemed to attract aggro and started running towards the drone.
Seeing zombies running was a threat to the general public.
It didn’t look very strong though.
At the sound, they began to gather one by one, and about a dozen or so zombies were following the drone.
‘Not much to see.’
I turned the drone around and looked around.
I didn’t feel popular.
〈 Daejeon Complex Terminal 4.5km〉
I saw the road sign and knew it was Daejeon.
Even if the login location is Korean, how much does the location where I live and the entry location have anything to do with it?
Time is…. I left in the afternoon, but I think it’s morning here.
I didn’t know the exact time, but looking at the sun, it seemed to be around nine or ten o’clock.
Looking at the magnolia, the season seems to be spring.
I looked around as much as I could, but there were no people, only zombies walking around.
The drone was retrieved without much success.
-Stupid.
I broke the doorknob on the roof.
I could see the stairs going down to the apartment.
A musty and unpleasant smell came up.
Judging from the exterior of the buildings, it looked like an ordinary modern city.
Technical skills didn’t seem to make much of a difference.
Our side blocked the gate, but I don’t know why this side is so desolate.
Maybe you can evacuate somewhere….
Originally, the world almost survived at first, except for the big cities.
Still, isn’t Daejeon a big city?
It was impossible to hastily judge that the world itself had survived.
Only to zombies?
It’s only possible in the movies, but wouldn’t it be difficult in real life?
Anyway, this entry is originally a reconnaissance concept.
I was thinking of spending 24 hours and returning right away.
I also had to check the time difference with our world.
‘But when I went back, it must have been an absurd few years later.’
It was a little scary.
First, I had to find a place to spend my time.
I decided to explore the house from the upper floors.
The apartment was an old hallway apartment.
The corridor on the 15th floor, the top floor, showed bloodstains in between, but it was cleaner and quieter than expected.
First of all, I decided to check the house right next to the hallway passage.
The awakened person’s keen senses sense someone’s presence on the other side of the door.
When I scanned it, there was nothing special about the detection reaction.
There was a high probability that it was a zombie, not a human.
Zombies didn’t seem to be detected by scanning.
The door was closed.
I grabbed the handle and opened the door.
– Clumsy.
When the door was broken and forced open, a hideous-looking zombie made a noise and rushed in.
– Big!!
She was so ugly that her gender was indistinguishable, but from the clothes she was wearing, she looked like a zombie who used to be a woman.
I kicked her in the stomach and she fell and rolled behind her faster than she had come running.
But she got up as soon as there was no special blow and she rushed.
She took out a huge spear from her inventory and stabbed it right into the zombie’s belly.
It is a thick spear over 3 meters that I bought in Men’s.
The zombie struggled in her place, unable to overcome her strength, with her stomach pierced.
She just pushed the window in and nailed it to the wall.
-Thud.
The zombie tried to attack me with her stomach pierced, but she couldn’t help it because she was a very strong spear.
Observe zombies.
Eyeballs stained black.
Hideously warped skin.
Above the skin, black blood vessels squirm.
“Hmm. Corruption isn’t that bad….”
How long has it been since this happened?
“I don’t think it’s our corrosive body… But it seems similar.”
She pulled her jungle sword from her inventory and held it in her hand.
– Squeak.
One of her arms was cut off.
Black blood dripped from her cut edge.
However, not much blood came out and it soon stopped.
She didn’t seem to feel any pain.
“Kuaa!”
Seeing me and waving his arms to catch me, the aggression was still the same.
– Poo-wook.
Jungle road pierces the heart.
“Keeck!! Keck!”
A little black blood flowed from the zombie’s mouth.
He didn’t die though.
Still, there was a blow, so maybe blood was coming out of her mouth.
I wanted to die if I spent more time.
– Squeak.
– Degururu.
As he cut her throat, his head rolled across the floor.
– Tttadak. Right.
The head on the floor looked at me and gritted its teeth.
“It’s actually interesting to see.”
-Puck!
As soon as the jungle sword was inserted into his head, his eyes opened and he immediately stopped moving.
And I felt a small amount of experience coming in.
It is a story that zombies are also living beings.
〈 Lesser Erosion Body Treatment: 0 / 10 〉
However, it was a story that it was not an erosion body.
It didn’t seem like it was going to be easy either.
Well, if there are 10 of these, the balance will collapse.
“But it looks like dog poop…. It’s a cost-effective dog….. It’s copper. Do you think these guys have magic stones?”
Perhaps because it was a zombie, its vitality was tenacious, and it was difficult to rummage unless its head was broken.
At the same time, it had less experience than F-rank monsters.
