Chapter 73 Two-Headed Zombie King
“Keke…human..human…let’s fight.”
In front of Leo was a one-meter monster that looked like a devil with two bat wings on its back.
It hovered around Leo and asked him to fight with it.
<Participant, it seems like your luck is not bad. You got the weakest rank 9 monster king>
The old spirit’s voice resounded in his head and continued saying,
<What are you waiting for? Defeat the first monster king>
‘This old son of a spirit.’
Leo could not help but scoff at the old remnant spirit.
“Why not? Let’s fight.”
Nevertheless, Leo didn’t have any intention of leaving the [Treasure land] without taking the items from the [Platinum] and the [Diamond] sections of the [Treasure room].
So, he nodded and quickly checked the information on it.
‘Ding,
Monster name:- Forest Gremlin King
Strength:- Rank 9
Information:- It belongs to the weakest monster race; however, it is still much more powerful than rank 8 monster kings.
‘Looks like I am really quite lucky.’
After checking the information, Leo could not help but agree with the old remnant spirit.
‘Anyway, I should not waste much time on these monster kings. I should hurry up and go out of the [Treasure land] to check on Julia.’
Even though Leo knew nothing would happen to Julia as long as she announced her hero rank, he was still worried.
So, he decided to finish the fight quickly.-.
[Teleportation]
Leo observed the flying pattern of the Forest Gremlin King and teleported himself behind it.
[Mighty Combustion]
Grabbing both wings, Leo didn’t waste any time using his newly mutated talent.
‘Boom’
Soon, the flames shot out of Leo’s body and engulfed the Gremlin king.
[Mighty Combustion]
Before the smoke could even get cleared, Leo used his talent again.
Since his [Mighty Combustion] was at level 8, he feared it might not be enough to kill a rank 9 monster king.
‘Crisp’
However, he was wrong about it.
The Forest Gremlin King was the weakest monster that relied on its fast movement speed. So, it didn’t have much defence.
In the first usage of his [Mighty Combustion] itself, the Gremlin King died, and with the second time, its entire body turned into a crispy shell.
….
‘What the…his talent…it is at level 8?’
When the old remnant spirit saw that Leo’s combustion talent was at level 8, he was shocked.
Unlike the other participants, the old remnant spirit could not sense Leo’s talents, not to mention their level.
Even though previously he used the combustion talents a few times, at the time, the power he emitted was level 6. So, he thought it was level 6.
However, only now did he realise that Leo was hiding the level of his talent very well.
‘So, he is a level 8 Hero. Since he is less than 25 years old but already a rank 8 hero, can I go easy on him?’
When the old man realized that Leo was a rank 8 hero, he started thinking of something else.
‘Since my [Treasure land] opened means, the time for them to enter this new world must be near. Should I help me a little and make him a powerful rank 9 hero?’
‘As long as he becomes a rank 9 hero, he could use that item to become the Supreme hero.’
Until now, the old remnant spirit wanted to kick Leo out of the [Treasure land] and remove the limitations of his [Treasure land] for others to enter.
From the beginning, the old remnant spirit was not planning to give access to the last two sections of the [Treasure room] to the participants.
Instead, he searched for some young hero with the potential to become a supreme hero. Why he was doing all these for the humans was still unknown.
‘He not only had good talents and battle prowess but he was cunning. As long as he becomes a supreme hero, this world could pass its first assessment.’
The old spirit stared at Leo; however, he still had some concerns about Leo’s character.
….
<The participant has killed the first monster king ‘Forest Gremlin King’>
<The host received two million treasure points>
‘Huh? Two million treasure points?’
Leo was surprised with such a huge amount of treasure points.
‘It only took a minute and I already got two million treasure points. Good start.’
Leo was satisfied with the round and muttered, ‘As long as I kill two more monster kings, I can gain access to the [Treasure room].’
‘Swoosh’
Soon, the second monster king appeared in front of Leo.
‘A zombie?’
There were many movies about zombies. So, Leo instantly recognized the second monster king with its appearance.
However, the zombie had two heads and four hands instead of one head.
It was wearing battle armour and even wielding four swords as it ran towards Leo.
‘Swoosh’
It appeared in front of Leo in an instant, and he barely dodged it using his ‘teleportation’ talent.
“Damn it…who said that Zombies can’t run fast? They should be killed.”
Leo cursed as he looked at the two-headed Zombie King running at an incredible speed.
‘Swoosh’
‘Teleport’
Once again, the zombie appeared in front of Leo and attacked him with four swords.
‘I think the ground is very plain. Let’s fill the ground with holes.’
Without wasting any time, Leo placed his hands on the ground, and soon, deep holes started appearing on the ground.
‘Putong’
To Leo’s luck, the two-headed zombie king fell into a hole, making him nod his head in satisfaction.
‘Puchi’
‘Puchi’
However, the zombie used its swords to climb out of the hole and again rushed toward Leo.
‘Damn it…it even got intelligence.’
Generally, it was said that Zombies don’t have intelligence; however, the one Leo was fighting right now had intelligence.
‘However, its speed is not fast anymore.’
It was still fast; however, it decreased by half compared to its earlier speed.
‘I heard Zombies can be easily killed with fire. Let’s test it out whether that theory was right or not.’
With a slight smile, Leo condensed a fireball and threw it at the incoming two-headed zombie king.
‘Boom’
The zombie dodged the fireball; however, Leo threw another one.
‘Swoosh’
‘Boom’
Once again, it dodged the fireball with its speed.
‘Looks like the fire really makes them anxious.’
Even though it kept on dodging the fireballs, Leo learned that the Zombies hate fires.
‘Time to go all out
[Earth Manipulation]
[Teleportation],
[Mighty Combustion]
In a single go, Leo used three talents.
Two sand hands came out of the ground and held the zombie’s legs. After that, Leo appeared behind the zombie and released the fire waves out of his body.
‘Second time’
‘Third time.’
<The participant has killed the second monster king ‘Two-headed Zombie King’>
<The host received two million treasure points>
Leo didn’t stop until he received the old spirit’s voice.
‘Phew…finally I killed another rank 9 monster king.’
Leo heaved a sigh of relief as he collapsed to the ground.
‘Ding,
The host has over exhausted himself in using his talents.
‘Ding,
The ‘Forbidden curse’ on the host’s body is acting up again.
‘Ding,
Please take a break for at least three hours before using them again.
Soon, the system notifications rang in his head.
‘Damn this ‘Forbidden curse’.’
Looking at the sky, Leo cursed the ‘Forbidden curses’ that were stopping him from using his full power.
‘Roar’
As Leo was lying on the ground, the third monster king appeared in the distance as it rushed toward Leo.
‘Sigh…It looks like I can’t take the items from the last two sections.’
