Chapter 17: Soul Eating Crow (1)
Soon, a couple of hours silently passed by.
In an intersection between the road in Laguna, a pale black wisp could be seen floating silently beside the dead zombies below...
Its figure radiates an indescribable aura as it deeply stares at the corpse below.
Ding!
[ Congratulations upon killing the Level 11 zombie! ]
[ Congratulations upon killing the Level 10 zombie! ]

+10 Exp!

"Cough... Cough.." Leo coughed weakly as he gravely looked at the motionless zombies on the ground, his smoke color faded a lot.
Feeling the slight burning pain in his soul, Leo immediately plunged toward the ground, quickly moving toward the nearest building to heal his soul.
"Cough... Who would have thought that Level 11 and 10 zombies are much smarter than Level 9 zombies? Especially that level 11 zombie, I got caught off guard by its skill."
Remembering the flash of sharp nails that suddenly pierced through his soul body earlier in the fight, Leo could still remember the pain he experienced earlier.
He didn't expect that zombies' combat abilities were quite fatal! Taking a deep breath, Leo excitedly opened his inventory to see the items he got from the fight.
Upon opening, Leo immediately saw a bronze knuckle flickering with weak light appearing in front of him.
Ding!
[ Common Knuckle (Common) - Item that increases the damage of the user.
Strength: +3
Endurance: +1
Note: Couldn't be worn by the host! ]
"As expected, being a ghost prevented me from using items."
Hehehe. However, so what...
Leo sneered inside his head as he directly upgraded his "Telekinetic" skill to Level 3, costing him 1,200 horror points.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
"Hahaha, now that I got a good combination, how could you a brainless being fight me!" Leo laughed out loud as he manipulated the knuckle to hit the zombie's head meters away from him, at the same time evading the sharp nails approaching from behind.
In able to lower his consumption of mana, Leo turned off his "Invisibility" skill earlier, causing the zombie to be able to see him. However, although the zombies could now see him, most of them decided to ignore him, only those level 8 in the surroundings decided to attack.
Since as a ghost without vitality, Leo already knows from before that most of the zombies wouldn't attack him if he didn't take the initiative to attack them first. The only reason he activated the skill before was to evade the senses of the foundation-level zombie and zombies beyond level 15 when he was hunting.
Now that the foundation zombie is dead and he can't see any level-15-above zombie in the surroundings, Leo decides to cut off his mana consumption.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
[ Congratulations upon killing a level 9 zombie! ]
[ Congratulations upon killing a level 10...
[ congratulations upon killing...
Ding!
+9 exp points!
+10 exp points!
+22 exp points!
Ding!
[ Congratulations upon successfully upgrading to Level 12! ]
Seeing that the zombies attacking him are finally dead, Leo retrieves the knuckle on the ground.
Smiling lightly, seeing that he actually upgraded to the next level, Leo planned to open his character panel to see his new stats when suddenly a feeling of danger gripped his soul.
"D*mn, what now!" Upon feeling the danger, Leo instinctively activated his invisibility skill before plunging toward the ground. With how familiar he was with escaping, Leo only took a second to enter the ground.
Sneering inside his head, knowing that he once again escaped successfully. Leo planned to rush to the distance to rest when suddenly the concrete above him was shattered by something sharp before hitting his soul body.
I'm dead.
