There was no way Shane would make a mistake since he had seen many Runner Zombies already.
The one that was charging at them was definitely a different type of zombie!
At the very least, it must be a variant of the Runner Zombie!
Shane quickly aid his revolver at the zombie's head, hoping to shoot through the helt. In any case, with his max Firearm Mastery Skill, he wasn't worried that he would miss at this distance.
Bang!
He pulled the trigger, and his aim was accurate. However, the bullet bounced off the tal!
'What? So tough?' Shane was surprised. Even though he didn't activate the Special Effect, the revolver he was using was still boosted by its Exceptional Rank!
'Can I even loot that helt? I must have it...' Shane thought as he confird from Cloud that no other zombies were around.
Bang!
As he fired the second shot imbued with Burn Effect, the "Runner" Zombie sohow dodged this shot and leaped at him.
This zombie seed quite intelligent and learned that his weapon could shoot projectile!
Furthermore, with its athletic ability, it felt as if he was fighting with a combination of Runner and Jumper Zombie!
Bam!
Shane barely blocked the zombie's claws with his hatchet, but the impact knocked him down. His revolver was also thrown aside because of the clash!
The zombie then tried to bite his neck, but Shane pushed it away with his free hand...
To his surprise, he easily overpowered the zombie!
'It's light!' Shane's eye's lit up. However, as he struggled to get up, the zombie prepared to attack again.
Harper saw Shane in danger, and rushed to help him. He threw his dagger at the zombie's head, hoping to pierce through the helt.
However, the dagger hit the zombie's eye, causing it to scream in pain!
The zombie staggered back, clutching its eye.
Harper then ran towards the zombie, and grabbed the pickaxe he had found on the ground just now. Without wasting his ti, he struck the zombie repeatedly in the chest and on its head!
'Die! Die! Die!'
Harper repeated his action until it stopped moving!
As soon as he confird that the zombie was dead, the man heaved a sigh of relief as he looked at the Foreign Survivor.
He then helped Shane stand up and checked his wounds, if there were any.
"Are you okay, Sir Shane?" Harper asked, worried.
On the other hand, Shane was looking at sothing else.
[ You have eliminated a Violent Sprinter Zombie. ]
[ Congratulations! You are the first to eliminate a Violent Sprinter Zombie, a mid-tier zombie! ]
[ You can select one reward: 1 Instant Experience Potion, 20 Zombie Cores, 1 Random Giftpack ]
'I knew it... It's not a Runner Zombie...' Shane thought as he felt that he should scold the A.I. later. Anyway, he selected the Instant Experience Potion once again.
"Ahem... I'm fine, thanks to you, Harper. That was a close one." Shane replied. Although he could still fight back with his hatchet's special effect, he was still grateful for Harper's tily actions.
He then looked at the dead zombie, and cursed. "Damn, these helts are annoying. We need to find a better way to deal with them." Shane said as he noticed that even with Harper's Pickaxe Skill, he didn't even dent the helt it was using!
"Harper, can you loot the zombie?" Shane suddenly asked.
"I can, Sir Shane. However, it will always give zombie bones... or maybe zombie cores if I'm lucky. Aside from those two, I won't be getting anything." Harper replied.
"So you don't have terrible luck, huh..." Shane muttered as he placed his hands on the zombie corpse.
[ Do you want to retrieve the loot? ]
"Yes."
[ You have earned 8 Experience Points. ]
[ Loots obtained: 1 Item Upgrade Crystal, 1 Zombie Core, 500mL water, 1 bread, 100mL Violent Runner Zombie Blood, 1 Rough Rider's Helt, 1 Spirit Enhancent Potion ]
"It's eight experience points similar to the Jumper Zombie..." Shane muttered as he checked the loot.
Nevertheless, with the addition of a helt to his collection, he felt that this mining site exploration would co a lot easier.
Then, they decided to leave the pile of tal scraps and look for another spot. They hoped that they would not encounter any zombies stronger than that Violent Sprinter.
In the anti, while there were still no zombies being detected, Shane gave the 100mL Violent Sprinter Zombie Blood to Cloud and asked.
"Cloud, what happened? Why did you fail?"
[ The Violent Sprinter Zombie's Essence has similarities with the Runner Zombie. During detection, the Violent Sprinter was recognized as having a 0.1% chance as a Spitter, a 5% chance as a Crawler, a 15% Walker, a 75% chance as a Runner, and a 9.9% Unknown. ]
Shane could only sigh after hearing this. Nonetheless, this made him realize that the A.I. Assistant wasn't omnipotent. It could only rely on the data that it was getting from him and the surroundings around them...
In short, he had to be careful from now on, even with the A.I.'s assistance.
Then, Shane recalled the Instant Experience Potion he just obtained and decided to consu it now. After taking it out of his Inventory, he imdiately uncapped the bottle and drank it in one go.
Gulp!
