{Author note: Things that shouldn't have happened, happened in the last chapter. But Don't Worry! I already fixed it so there's no problem now.
P. S: that was like the first real conversation in the novel.}
*Evan POV*
I cut another zombie in two.
It's a good thing that I don't feel tired or afraid or anything like that otherwise I don't know how many times I would have died.
{Author Note: ......}
I looked around and only two zombies were left. I need to quickly build the walls after this, It should be enough to stop the zombies.
At that moment, one of the zombies lunged at me. And instead of blocking or dodging, the only thing that remained in my mind was to german suplex the sh*t out of him.
I ducked down as the zombie landed behind me, I quickly ran over to him and grabbed his waist.
[SPECIAL DELIVERY!] (Me)
I quickly turned my back up and just YEET him behind me to the other zombie.
{Author Note: He means Throw.}
The thrown zombie hit the other zombie, like a bowling bowl hitting the last pin as they both crashed down.

Holy Sh*t! That was Flippen Awsome!
I lunged forward and trusted my blazing sword down on one of the fallen zombies with lesser health which instantly killed him.
I was about to take advantage of the situation and kill the other fallen zombie as well but I think i saw the bushes move for a second.
I don't know about you but my spider-sense is tingling.
I quickly rolled out of the way as I heard something crash on the ground where I was before.
I looked over and there was another zombie there now, tho a wee bit different.
[god dam it, it's you guys.] (Me)
The new zombie was holding onto a dislocated, zombified arm by the shoulder. the claws of the fingers looked extremely sharp.
It was an Elite. The difference between normal zombies and this guy is the fact that these have more range, damage and health.
Taking care of him is gonna be a bi*ch.
The fallen zombie had stood up by now and both charged at towards me.
I rolled away to get some distance and also to dual-wield with the wand.
As long as we have distance between us, i can take care of 'em.
I used the wand on the elite who was lit up on fire from the spark. And ran towards the other zombie.
I quickly wacked the normal zombie 2 times with my burning sword, setting him on fire again. He's almost dead but the elite was coming at me from behind.
I changed my wand to my copper short-sword, placed it behind me and blocked the elite's back attack while still facing towards the burning zombie.
Due to some sheer luck, I blocked successfully but I still received damage.
-18
Why did I Receive Damage!?
Life:
82/100
I felt my hands aching a little bit.
It seems like there are some limits to the skill "Parry". I need to quickly read the skill's descriptions.
I countered the elite's attack by turning around and swinging my blazing sword upwards.
Skill unlocked: High rise
Nice.
The elite zombie was knocked back.
-12
That's good. Some distance is always appreciated.
I heard the normal blazing zombie charging up for an attack so I quickly turned around again and used the skill I had just obtained.
What I saw when I turned around was the zombie's hands raised up, ready to slash me down, but at that moment, my body moved on its own as my sword went from down to straight up in a straight, powerful, vertical line, Launching the Flippen Zombie away.
-15
The zombie died in mid-air, leaving behind some silver coins and tons of blood.
Holysh*t! THAT WAS AWESOME!
Huh? I just noticed now but the zombie corpse just slowly sink into the ground. Why?
I didn't have time to think about it as I faced the elite zombie again.
The elite was slowly walking towards me.
[Oh, You're approaching me?] (Me)
The elite has around 100-200 HP in expert mode I've dealt some hits but his HP hasn't even reached 50% yet best do this quickly before more of em comes.
High rise launches them back so I can use it to gain distance and then kill it with the bow like an absolute mad lad.
Just as I thought that.
Highrise (cooldown) : 21 seconds
OF COURSE, THERE IS A FLIPPEN COOLDOWN!
The elite ran towards me so I shifted myself to the side slightly just so I can counter him easily.
Skill unlocked: Sidestep
Very cool.
The zombie missed and lost his balance so I first started with the Thrust skill.

I used my shortsword for a quick attack.

Then I slashed with both my sword, making a big X on the zombie.

Skill unlocked: Double slash
Lovely.
I jumped back, switched my short-sword to the wand, jumped back to gain some distance, and started decking the zombie with fire sparks.
[ORA ORA ORA ORA!!!] (Me)

If the zombie got close, I would jump back to gain some distance.
Good thing the wand doesn't take much mana.
Now that I think about it why did I start with 40 mana?
You always start the game with 20 mana.
Welp, I'll think about that later, gotta kill this bad boi first.
I grew more overconfident. Couldn't help it. It was just me and the elite and elite was almost dead.
I had failed to notice another zombie coming from behind.
BAM!
I got hit from the back.
-63
I started sweating.
Life:
24/100
Holy Shit.
I rolled away to some safety and quickly gulped down a lesser health potion.

Life:
74/100
That was close......
As I looked at the new attacker to notice it was another elite.
......Shit
Okay, Now I really need a plan.
I can maybe get the zombie arm from the almost dead elite. With it, I only need to hit the other elite a few times to kill him. Yeah, let's stick to that.
The new elite zombie charged at me but I stepped out of his way and charged at the almost dead elite but he retaliated by swinging the zombie arm down on me.
Shit!
I quickly parried

Life:
63/100
My felt hands aching a little bit. But I got my chance!
I canged the wand back to short-sword and used Cross-slash skill.
The blazing elite zombie got knocked back a little bit so I made a follow-up attack with a thrust.

The elite finally died. I kept staring at the corpse ignoring the other elite who lunged at me.
Time seemed to slow down.
I watched carefully at the drops of the elite.
3 silver and a shackle.
DAMN ITTTTT!
I got hit on the back from the elite I ignored.
-62
HOLY SWEET ZEUS BIG DADDY! I ONLY HAVE 1 HP LEFT!
That's right you big bastard elite. I'M PROTECTED BY PLOT ARMOR!
My vision suddenly turned Red.
wut?
I gained a buff and i focused on it to see what did i just got.

the elite tried to attack me again but time seemed to slow down. I could see his every move. I dodged to the right and slashed 3 times with insane speed.

-13
-20(Crit)
I finally have a chance against this guy.
*A few seconds later*
The elite finally collapsed.
Still no zombie arm weapon.
Hm? My berserk still hasn't finished?
Wasn't it only for one battle?
I thought as I drank another lesser health potion.
Out from the shadows came 7 more normal zombies.
I guess that's why I'm still in cheat mode.
I grinned a little
[Well if this is what you want THEN COME AND GET IT. ] (Me)
I screamed as I charged towards the new horde of zombies.
