"Bang!"


    With a muffled sound, the zombie''s head copsed like a deted ball, and its body was thrown aside due to the tremendous force.


    Elijah''s other hand wasn''t idle either, smashing another zombie.


    "Bang! Bang!"


    Elijah swung left and right, the thirty-plus kilograms of the two short hammers seemed nonexistent in his hands, creating a whistling sound as he swung them.


    Any zombie that approached him was met with a deadly blow to the head.


    asionally, if any zombies managed to get through, they couldn''t even pierce his body, not with his reinforced skin.


    Soon, the ground around him was littered with corpses, and he was covered in dark bloodstains and white brain matter.


    "Is that all? That felt damn good!"


    Elijah swung the short hammers excitedly, a look of exhration on his face.


    "It''s all about defense superpowers! Just go all out!"


    This frenzied ughter gave him a sense of excitement and satisfaction he had never experienced before.


    In both his past and present lives, Elijah had always avoided such confrontations, feeling somewhat constrained.


    He had often fantasized about being able to rampage like a berserker one day.


    And now, he had just realized it!


    The only downside... Elijah looked at his clothes.


    They got dirty too easily!


    And it was only feasible for now.


    In another couple of months, there would be more and more mutated zombies on the streets, some of them quite formidable.


    By then, his current level of defense wouldn''t suffice.


    "I need to quickly improve my abilities! Once I reach Tier Three, Abigail can advance to Tier Two, and her defense will increase significantly again... So I need to continue gathering corpse cores!" MVLeMpYr-official-text


    Elijah looked around, ensuring there were no more zombiesing, and started collecting the cores.


    "Oh? Is this an armored car?"


    Soon, he found the body of an armored car driver among the corpses.


    "Too bad there''s no gun..."


    Elijah searched through the body but didn''t find any firearms that the driver might have carried. Instead, he found the keys on the armored car''s door.


    "Not bad, not bad! Although I can pick locks, having the keys is much more convenient!"


    Elijah happily pocketed the keys and resumed collecting the corpse cores.


    From the recent skirmish, he had obtained four corpse cores from over a dozen zombies.


    Elijah moved the obstructive bodies aside to ensure they didn''t hinder passage, got back into the car, and headed towards the residentialpound.


    The road leading to thepound entrance was heavily congested, so Elijah followed the pre-nned route and drove onto the sidewalk.


    Despite the bumps, he managed to reach thepound entrance smoothly.


    This short distance attracted another dozen or so zombies, trailing behind them.


    Elijah parked the car and continued on foot, quickly clearing out the zombies and collecting two more corpse cores.


    "Next up is clearing the road at thepound entrance!"


    Elijah entered thepound, having already observed the situation, and headed straight to the car blocking the entrance.


    With his immense strength, he began pushing it backward.


    These were mostly sedans or SUVs, not too heavy overall. As long as they weren''t braked or damaged beyond use, pushing them was quite effortless.


    "Oh, Elijah, I saw a lot of corpses on the way here, did you kill them?"


    At that moment, Daisy appeared silently beside him like a ghost.


    "Yes, I did. What took you so long?"


    If it weren''t for the psychic link that allowed him to always know Daisy''s location, he would have been startled.


    "I helped Charlotte move all the weapons to the first floor. It''ll be easier to load the car tomorrow!"


    "Well done, very considerate of you! I''ve finished here as well. Let''s go back so you can see the car I found!"


    Elijah grabbed Daisy''s hand and led her to the front of the car.


    "An armored cash transport vehicle?"


    "That''s right! Get in!"


    "There are so many seats inside, just enough for all of us!"


    Counting on his fingers, Daisy realized.


    Elijah thought about it and indeed!


    The mutated female zombie, Charlotte, Abigail, Daisy, Be, plus himself.


    Four people and two zombies, just the right number.


    Thinking of Be, Elijah''s heart stirred.


    Now that he had fulfilled his promise, could he do as he pleased today?


    The two got into the car and entered thepound. They hadn''t even reached the building when they noticed several zombies loitering at the entrance.


    "Why are there so many zombies at the entrance?"


    "Something might have happened!"


    Elijah remained calm. He could sense that Be was upstairs and in good condition.


    "Let''s leave the car here for now and clear out the zombies first!"


    Elijah parked the car, locked it, and then hurried with Daisy towards the building.


    This time, Elijah still relied on Abigail''s abilities, so when the zombies heard movement, they immediately rushed towards him.


    "Be careful!"


    Elijah warned Daisy as he swung his short hammer into the midst of several zombies, knocking them out one by one with great force.


    Daisy watched in astonishment.


    This wasn''t killing zombies; it was like smashing watermelons!


    After Elijah finished cleaning up, Daisy finally managed to kill one that slipped through the cracks.


    "Elijah, you''re amazing! I want to do it like that too!"


    "Don''t envy me. You''re even more amazing. Do you know how many people envy your abilities?"


    "But I can''t kill zombies as fast as you!"


    Daisy pouted.


    "It''s different skills. You''re an assassin, I''m a warrior!"


    Elijah said as he searched for corpse cores, piling up the useless bodies on the side.


    There were the bodies he had stacked before, also where Alexander''s body contributed to the growth of zombie grass.


    "I wonder if there''s more zombie grass growing!"


    Elijah looked around but didn''t find any more zombie grass, nor did he notice any new bodies lying there.


    Feeling somewhat disappointed, he opened the unit door with Daisy and started walking upstairs.


    "Woof! Woof!"


    Before they reached the door, a small dog happily ran out and began circling Daisy.


    "Wow!"


    Daisy picked up the dog, looking joyful.


    "Have you been good these past few days?"


    "Woof! Woof!"


    The little dog barked twice, wriggled out of Daisy''s arms, and ran into the house.


    "Hmm? What''s going on?"


    "Let''s go inside and see!"


    The two entered Daisy''s house and saw the little dog circling around a bag.


    "You finished a whole bag of dog food? That''s supposed tost you three days..."


    Daisy looked puzzled.


    "A big eater raised a little eater. The first thing you do when youe home is eat!"


    Elijah chuckled.


    "I... I''m not a big eater!"


    Daisy retorted unhappily.


    Then she red at the puppy.


    "I left so much for you, and you finished it all. I''ll starve you for half a day, no, a day!"


    After saying that, Daisy ignored the dog and turned to look at Abigail.


    The puppy squatted there and purred innocently, looking at Elijah.


    "Uh, your owner won''t feed you, and there''s nothing I can do about it!"


    Elijah said, following Daisy toward the guest room.


    As the guest room door opened, Abigail stood there quietly as usual.


    The moment Daisy stepped into the bedroom, Abigail suddenly turned her head.


    When she saw Elijah, her tightly closed mouth suddenly opened, and a word slipped out.


    "Hungry..."


    "Huh?"


    Daisy was puzzled for a moment, then turned to seek confirmation from Elijah.


    "Abigail just spoke, right?"
