Everyone in the continent was already aware of this alias, Shadow Strider.
His na was always at the top and it wasn't that surprising to know that he was also Shane after they had seen Shane's battle in the screen platform in the waiting Zone.
There was no way they weren't curious about this Top 1 Survivor and learned about his tricks after all.
In the Zombie Challenge Event, they knew that Shane possessed several high-level items that may possibly be Legendary Rank. After all, he was able to clear Level 60 in that Zombie Challenge and the top 2 Survivor wasn't even close to his level.
Nonetheless, they seed to have underestimated him as he actually didn't have to rest for a long ti before he raided another Zombie Lord!
Everyone knew that killing the Zombie Lord had most likely given him an exclusive reward that was hard to ignore.
Raze and the others were curious about this item that he obtained, so needless to say, they all didn't linger too long in the World Chat and decided to work on their raid. This was especially true after they saw how Asad or Raven Guard was able to get his first kill!
They could not waste their ti. They are to kill a Zombie Lord imdiately!
Although the suggestion was to raid it once they reached level 50 and received their bonus stats, they just have to compensate with a number of expensive items!

In the anti, while everyone was surprised about Shane's achievent, the man was also quite happy with what he had done.
Apparently, he really used all of his abilities in that battle that lasted for an hour. Thankfully, his new titles Top Challenger and Slayer of Decay had assisted him in his damage output.
At this ti, Shane focused on the system's ssage.
[ You have eliminated a Lord-Tier Zombie. ]
[ New Title Unlocked: Slayer of the Abyss: Grants a 12% increase in damage against larger enemies and reduces incoming area-of-effect damage by 15%.
[ Additional Rewards: Gold Treasure Chest, 30,000 Experience Points, Territory Key Fragnt x1
Shane wiped the sweat off his brow as he saw the ssage. The new title was already a huge deal for him since with his current stat, even a 5% increase would be huge.
The new title was definitely an important part of his raid…
Shane smiled as he looked at the red crystal that was left by the Lord-Tier Zombie. This Abyss Zombie had a strange ability that could actually adapt to its surroundings.
Its skin could change from ti to ti depending on what it was dealing with… It would turn into stone if it touched the ground, it could also turn into tal after being bombarded by tal bullets. Then, it could also turn into a molten body if it was being hit by fiery explosions.
It was definitely a terrifying opponent for most people.
Lastly, it had a corrosive aura that seed to be a requirent for a Lord Tier Zombie… He really had used his set armor to its limit to survive an hour long battle.
Anyway, Shane continued to check the notifications from his system.
[ Congratulations! You are the second to defeat a Lord-Tier Zombie. ]
[ You have received an Exclusive Item: ]
Binder's Gauntlet: A gauntlet forged from cursed tals. Increases critical hit chance by 15% and allows the wearer to drain 3% of the target's health with every critical strike.
[ You have obtained 3,500 Reputation Points. ]
[ You have obtained 7,500 Zombie Cores. ] Experience new tales on My Virtual Library Empire
[ Your feat has been broadcasted to the Regional Chat. Prepare for recognition and glory! ]
[ Note: All Lord-Tier Zombies will have a 100% Drop-Rate. ]
[ You have leveled up. ]
[ You have leveled up. ]
Shane smirked after seeing that he had leveled up at the end. After all, he had spent quite a lot of experience points after purchasing those slaves in the Vault of Chains in the Waiting Zone.
Anyway, he started inspecting the gauntlet that was rewarded to him.
He was not a gauntlet user.
However, after his mories rged with his experiences in his past life, he could at least tell that he had learned so advanced close-combat techniques.
He wouldn't mind using such techniques soon.
Shane then checked his level-up rewards and confird that aside from an increase in his stats, he was able to obtain so store vouchers.
"Congratulations, Shane… You have to help in my hunt next!" Lysandra said.
"Sure… If we find another one. I just need the Territory Key Fragnt that would be rewarded to you." Shane replied without hesitation. It was not a bad thing to let his close companions beco stronger after all.
Then, he turned his attention to the regional chat and noticed that Asad had finally taken the third kill.
It was certainly an impressive feat as he knew well how strong these Lord Tier Zombies are.
Anyway, Shane only read the ssages for a while and replied a few tis to so people asking about his secrets and thod to kill Lord Tier Zombies before he turned his attention to the remains of the Zombies, the red crystal.
Shane imdiately looted the red crystal after a notification appeared.
Needless to say, he first triggered his Loot Keeper's Tipiece. It had the effect of allowing him to loot five tis his normal loot.
[ You have earned 3,000 Experience Points. ]
[ You have earned 50 Reputation Points. ]
[ Loots obtained: Item Upgrade Crystal x50, Zombie Cores x50, Unknown at ( Safe ) x20, Unknown at ( Unsafe ) x10, Lord Zombie Blood, Spirit Enhancent Bottle x10, Vitality Enhancent Bottle x10, Agility Enhancent Bottle x10, Decay Mask x10, Doom of Abyss Skill Scroll x1, Abyssal's Mask x1, Abyssal's Mantle x1, Abyssal's Plate Armor x1, Abyssal's Gauntlets x1, Abyssal's Belt x1, Abyssal's Greaves x1, Abyssal's Boots x1 ] x5
'Sa experience points and reputation points.' Shane muttered as he read his looted items carefully.
Five sets of such precious pieces of equipnt would definitely boost their current strength. However, Shane already had the Dreadlord Set… This Abyssal Set would most likely be sent to other mbers of his clan to increase their chances of raiding their Lord Tier Zombie targets.
***
After several hours, as Shane and the others continued on their journey, Lysandra spoke up…
"Shane, check out the World Chat… Three more people managed to kill a Lord Tier Zombie today."
"Oh?" Shane was indeed interested in this as he quickly checked the chatboard.
[ Announcent: ]
[ Survivor "Ghost Warden" has achieved the Sixth Kill of a Lord-Tier Zombie! ]
[ Entity Defeated: Blood Drainer ]
[ Exclusive Rewards Unlocked! Glory to the Slayer of Blood Drainer! ]
"Ghost Warden? Isn't that Natalie?" Shane gently nodded as he scrolled up his chat and confird that the fifth killer was actually Raze!
[ Announcent: ]
[ Survivor "Iron Maven" has achieved the FifthKill of a Lord-Tier Zombie! ]
[ Entity Defeated: Viral Spreader ]
[ Exclusive Rewards Unlocked! Glory to the Slayer of Viral Spreader! ]
Iron Maven was Raze's alias. Seeing this, Shane imdiately sent a ssage to her and congratulated her.
Of course, he didn't ask for her Territory Key Fragnt. Even if he would, he planned to at least pay it with whatever item she needed.
Finally, Shane looked at the fourth killer and unsurprisingly, it was Travis.
[ Announcent: ]
[ Survivor "Blade Whisper" has achieved the Fourth Kill of a Lord-Tier Zombie! ]
[ Entity Defeated: Ice Conqueror ]
[ Exclusive Rewards Unlocked! Glory to the Slayer of Ice Conqueror! ]
Thankfully, the Zombie Lords killed weren't his target for his ascension. Well, he wasn't sure about the exact location but it was ntioned that his targets, Necrotic Swarm and Eclipse Wraith Lord Zombies were located in Maggotfall Citadel and Dreadnight Fortress respectively.
They should located around this region and he had to find it soon.
"But… Is it going to be announced every ti we kill a Lord Tier Zombie?" Shane mused as he read the chat ssage... Well, it wasn't a bad thing at all since it might motivate everyone to get stronger.
"Everyone's really doing their best… I think that there will be a few more kills later." Lysandra muttered.
"It's already getting dark… Most Zombies were stronger during this ti, so they might postpone it." Shane replied.
"Ahh… You're right. They could just wait outside the Lord Zombie's chamber anyway. Then, they might start raiding the next morning." Lysandra muttered as it would also allow those challengers to rest for a whole night. Fighting against a Lord Tier Zombie in perfect condition was definitely the best situation.
***
Anyway, Shane was no longer bothered by this as they arranged a temporary camp…
On the next morning, Shane's team erged from their fortified resting spot.
They continued their search for the underground facility after a sumptuous al that Shane had prepared for everyone…
Of course, it wasn't easy. After several hours of searching for signs, Shane paused on the cracked asphalt of an abandoned street, his Faerie Insight skill was then imdiately activated.
His eyes glowed faintly in a soft blue glow. This skill was sothing he had obtained during the Fairy Realm Invasion. In that Apocalypse, it allowed him to perceive traces of hidden magic, anomalies, and intricate patterns invisible to the naked eye. It was his secret weapon for uncovering what others overlooked.
This ti, however, it was used to locate various hidden things and it seed that he hit the jackpot just now.
