Global Awakening: Apocalypse Ender's Chronicle

His Phantom Dash and Ghost Stride came from his Memory Sphere, and they were skills that he really used a lot in the Fairy Realm Invasion.

After all, these two movement skills could help him whether he wanted to use them for escaping or for attacking.

With the Phantom Dash at Level 10, he was able to reach 15 meters almost in an instant.

As the Licker Zombie noticed a human’s presence, it was already too late!

Shane was already upon it, and his Light Flameblade was already about to strike.

Boom!

With a swift motion, he activated the Inferno Burst, unleashing a torrent of scorching flames that engulfed the creature in an explosion.

The cavern trembled with the deafening roar of the blast as the Licker Zombie was consumed by the inferno, its twisted form writhing in agony before succumbing to the flames.

[ You have eliminated a Licker Zombie. ]

”One down…” Shane’s calculated strike had set the tone for the battle ahead, marking the beginning of his confrontation against the High-Tier Zombies.

Shane didn’t have the time to loot the Zombie as he already felt the presence of the other Zombies rushing at him!

Whom~

At this time, he triggered his Sentinel Sphere to protect himself.

He then braced himself for the onslaught that awaited him.

The remaining three Hunter Zombies and two Licker Zombies, decided to work together to kill the intruder!

’Good, just focus on me!’ Shane smirked as he saw their movements.

The Hunter Zombies used their blades while the Licker Zombies used their whip-like tongues, lashing out at him…

With a swift mental command, Shane used his golden Hatchet to cut off the tongue of the Licker Zombie!

Then, Shane was alerted by Cloud about the trajectory of his Automated Turret!

’Alright… Follow me, Zombies!’

Brrt~

Energy bullets soon rained upon the High-Tier Zombies while Shane moved away from the line of fire!

[ You have eliminated a Hunter Zombie. ]

Its firepower was focused on the Hunter Zombies, who had better hiding skills. Well, as they showed up themselves, it was deemed by the A.I. to not let them hide again in the shadows or it would be very difficult to shoot at them again.

’Good…’

The Turret’s support allowed Shane to concentrate on the immediate threats before him!

As the closest Hunter Zombies closed in, it was hit by one of the Energy Bullet and stumbled… This time, the Hatchet that had just severed the tongue of the Licker Zombie, immediately flew and went to cut off the head of the Hunter Zombie that was on the ground!

Ssaaak…

[ You have eliminated a Hunter Zombie. ]

It happened so swiftly! Shane wielded his golden Hatchet, using his Telekinesis to guide the weapon’s trajectory!

This was all happening while the Turret was still raining them with Energy Bullets!

Just like that, 2 Hunter Zombies and 1 Licker Zombie were eliminated!

However, as the remaining Zombies got closer, the Turret had to stop and shift its focus on the Licker Zombies instead.

Simultaneously, Shane’s Light Flameblade moved in his other hand, its flames casting a mesmerizing glow as he parried the attacks of the other Licker Zombie.

Its whip-like tongues lashed out in a frenzy, seeking to ensnare Shane to his death.

However, Shane didn’t stand still as he moved with strange movement speed and agility, evading their strikes with a dancer’s grace.

Needless to say, it was Ghost Stride helping him avoid the attacks of the Zombies!

[ You have eliminated a Hunter Zombie. ]

Once again, these Zombies, who had been ignoring the Turret killed another Hunter Zombie!

’This is actually easier than I thought…’ Shane mused as he didn’t expect that these Zombies would be too focused on him!

They ignored his Turret completely!

’Are they actually stupid high-tier Zombies?’ Shane couldn’t help but think of this since he had an impression that high-tier Zombies were intelligent.

Anyway, the Turret then stopped shooting as it was already overheating. It needed at least 30 seconds to recharge. It could, of course, change its ammunition to incendiary bombs, but Shane would be caught up in the explosion as well, so it was not an option at this point.

Nonetheless, 2 Licker Zombies weren’t a threat to him anymore.

With a series of fluid movements using his Survivor Skills, Shane decided to confront the two Licker Zombies head-on!

Since they could use their tongue like a whip, he had to get closer to them!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

As the battle raged on, Shane had gotten used to the unusual movements of the Licker Zombies…

Thankfully, they weren’t like the Licker Leader Zombie, who had three tongues that he had to be wary of.

After finding an opportunity, he activated his Survivor Skill, Horizontal Slash, a devastating technique that unleashed a wave of energy, slicing through the air that used up about 340 Spirit Points!

Thud!

The force of the attack struck accurately, cleaving through the Licker Zombie with a swift and decisive blow.

[ You have eliminated a Licker Zombie. ]

This movement showed an opening to his right and it was used by the remaining Licker Zombie in an attempt to kill him.

However, Shane expected this as he controlled his Hatchet with his Telekinesis!

Shane directed the weapon in a graceful arc, severing its head in the process.

Thud!

[ You have eliminated a Licker Zombie. ]

’I did it…’ Shane still feels very strong, thanks to his adrenaline injector, but he heaved a sigh of relief after confirming with his A.I. that there were no more threats around.

Shane then looted all six high-tier Zombies and used his Lootkeeper’s Timepiece on of the Hunter Zombies before he turned his attention to the glowing chest nearby.

’Now… Let’s see what you have here…’ Shane thought as he felt really excited this time. He hadn’t even seen a Silver Treasure Chest yet, but here he was, about to open a Golden Treasure Chest!

He then approached the chest while also asking Cloud if there were any traps nearby…

[ No signs of traps detected. ]
