Chapter 31: Level-grinding, Elite Zombies!

“Roar!”
When the three high-level zombies opened their mouths wide and roared, a bloody smell directly hit their faces.
If it was a normal person, even a Transcendent, they would have been so scared that they couldn’t even stand properly.
However, after killing two zombies in one move, Stark had a general understanding of their strength. He felt even more relaxed.
Immediately, seeing several high-level zombies charging at him, Stark didn’t panic. Instead, he raised his Sword of God and went straight for them.
Stark’s Sword of God was extremely sharp.
Crack!
Crack!
In just three minutes, three zombies fell to the ground one after another. Moreover, Stark was lucky. Another high-level zombie had dropped 200 spirit crystals.
At this rate, it shouldn’t be too difficult for him to surpass the top-ranked Transcendent named Cold Heart in one day.
‘Ding! Congratulations! You’ve reached Level 7!’
An hour later, when Stark killed three high-level zombies and hundreds of regular zombies, he finally reached level 7.
He was still far from level 12, though. To reach Level 8 from Level 7, he needed 10,000 experience points. From there to level 9, he needed 20,000 experience points. From level 9 to level 10, he needed 50,000 experience points.
That was a total of 80,000 experience points!
That was not a small amount at all.
As time passed, Stark began to feel a little tired again.
No. Killing high-level zombies is still a little slow.
He remembered that the main god had clearly said that not only high-level zombies but there were also elite zombies.
He had been searching for an hour or two, but he still couldn’t find an elite zombie. This kind of zombie was undoubtedly rarer, stronger, and had a higher reward!
So, maybe he should set his target on the rarer and more terrifying elite zombie.
Stark thought to himself.
However… he didn’t know how terrifying an elite zombie was. With his current strength, would he be able to handle it?
“Well, I don’t care. I’ll find it first!”

After thinking for a while, Stark quickly shook his head and cleared his mind.
Right now, searching for elite zombies by himself was troublesome and inefficient.
If he wanted to increase his efficiency, there might be another way.
“Let’s see if there’s any information about this in the forum!”
Stark muttered to himself.
With a thought, Stark instantly opened the forum on his wristband.
Originally, Stark was level one, so he could only see the information within a two-mile radius. This was also the protection that the main god had for lower-level Transcendents.
Now that he had reached level seven, the range of information displayed on the forum had also increased. The radius had expanded to 20 miles, and he also had the right to post.
Stark deduced that if he reached level 50, he would probably be able to see all the forum information in the United States.

After opening the forum system, posts quickly appeared on the projection map.
[A large number of high-level zombies have appeared in the Neumann region. We need an attack-type Transcendent. It would be best if he has fire-type abilities!]
[We are farming zombies and recruiting powerful attack-type Transcendents. We have healing-type Transcendents to ensure efficiency!]
[Two level 8 close-combat Transcendents, two level 7 long-range mage Transcendents, and one level 11 close-combat Transcendent. Currently, we are lacking a healing-type Transcendent. We can form a long-term team!]
One post after another appeared in front of him.
As the apocalypse developed, these awakened Transcendents, after knowing the identities of the other Transcendents, began to divide themselves into different types.
That was to divide all Transcendents into melee fighter, ranged mage, support healer, and all sorts of unique special abilities.
And in the current situation where the supply of medicine was greatly lacking, it was obvious that the damage and healing classes were the most popular.
Therefore, the third post had the highest number of clicks and replies.
However, Stark ignored all of this. He was searching for information about elite zombies.
Sure enough, not long later, Stark saw the post that he wanted to see.
[An elite-level zombie has appeared in Manhattan’s Beltway. Many Transcendents have died, and several teams have been wiped out. Everyone, pay attention!]
The post had 2,000 clicks. A Transcendent could only be counted as one click. Moreover, this post had only been posted for less than 30 minutes. In other words, there were at least 2,000 Transcendents in Manhattan.
“Beltway District. It’s not far from here.”
Stark opened the map and quickly locked onto his location. If he walked, he would arrive in 20 minutes. Stark did not want to waste any time. He ran all the way, and with the blessing of the Body of Zeus, it made his run feel like a breeze.
The 20-minute journey only took Stark less than four minutes.

As expected, the number of zombies in the Beltway district was three to four times more than the last location. At a glance, it looked like a sea of zombies.
Screams tore through the sky, covering the dark night with a layer of fear. Stark followed the sound and walked quickly. On the road, there were many zombies pouncing at him, but all of them were killed.
Like an unstoppable warrior, he wiped out everything.
Soon, Stark saw the elite zombies.
The elite zombie was one size bigger than ordinary zombies. It was very fat, and its body was covered in blood. There were even some intestines hanging on its shoulders, looking extremely disgusting.
The elite zombie was very fast as it charged straight at a Transcendent, breaking stone pillars and steel bodies. Then, it grabbed him and crushed his bones on the spot. In the end, it opened its mouth and bit off the Transcendent’s head.
Screams of pain rang out. Many transcendents fled in all directions while shrieking in panic.
At this moment, the elite zombie turned its fierce gaze over.
It slowly looked at Stark.
The elite Zombie’s eyes were blood-red. Its steel-like body, coupled with a sumo wrestler’s size, gave people an unexplainable sense of oppression. Its pair of scarlet eyes stared at Stark, making people’s hair stand on end.
Normal and high-level zombies didn’t have intelligence, but elite-level zombies might have developed some. However, such intelligence only judged the enemy’s strength and danger. If the enemy was too dangerous, they might run away…
If they felt that they could win, they would definitely choose to fight.
It was obvious that Stark didn’t make the elite zombie feel fear.
A roar sounded, and the elite zombie picked up a huge blood ax not far away. It shone with a bronze luster as Stark pounced on it!
