Footsteps are heard from various directions. Looks like the zombies have eaten the bait.
The reason being that with the smell of human blood, it would attract the attention of the zombies to follow the trail of the scent of blood. Zombie sense of smell is sharper than human instinct. They will definitely come if given a little food. Moreover, their favorite food was human blood and flesh, they would definitely come soon if given a bait.
"They're coming!"
The moaning sound drew closer and sounded through Rio's ears. Everyone would be terrified if they heard a single moan from the zombies. Moreover, this voice reached that much. If humans were cornered under these circumstances, perhaps they could only resignedly lament his fate of being killed by this many zombies.
The zombies began to be seen from the two highway paths.
Zombies are many. They're heading in the direction where they belong.
If it is calculated through human hands, it is likely that the number reaches hundreds. Not to mention the zombies that are coming here through the alley. With that many zombies, it was likely to reach the population of one village.
The zombies in the alley are starting to show. They were heading to a place where he smelled blood. And also all the paths were covered by a sea of zombies. It was like a parade he had seen on the highway, but it looked a little different than that.
Those zombies were at a distance of 10 meters from where Rio was. They were all jostled after merging with the zombie horde that was on the highway.
If the zombies are within 4 meters of the point they meet, and now it's time for him to take a precaution.
"Now, it's time to harvest the magic crystals!"
"Aura Desperation!"
One sentence spoken by Rio made the zombies speechless in their place.
Those who were about to attack jumped towards him, all of them fell to the ground. Something sounded louder than before.
"DOR!!"
"GERMANHH!!"
"GRWWHH!"
They all looked in pain.
They hurt themselves while making a groan.
Dirty blood from the zombies poured out as they injured themselves.
And.... After that one by one they fell to the ground.
The zombies that were lying around were not moving anymore. After waiting for a few minutes, the screams gradually subsided. All around him was a bunch of corpses and black blood pouring down the road.
"Cleaning done!"
All the areas around this place have been cleaned.
"Quite a number of Magic Stones were also produced by these zombie corpses. But.... When viewed up close, it seemed impossible to take the cores from their bodies."
He looked at the surrounding area, black blood and rotting flesh were everywhere which made him feel disgusted and reluctant to take the core core from the corpses of the zombies.
"But inevitably I have to do it..."
He continued to complain while picking up the Magic Crystals on the zombie corpse pile using his dagger.
10 Minutes had passed after he picked up the magic crystal. About more than 400 Magic Stones of various colors had been collected and all were put together on the shoulder of the road. But most of the magic crystals he collected were white/transparent and there were also some blue ones he found.
"Huffs... Finally done, too."
After collecting those Magic Stones and putting them in one place, he put them all inside his storage room.
"My clothes are dirty now."
He looked towards the clothes he was wearing.
His appearance when viewed up close was different from before. Starting from his hands and sandals and clothes, there were all blood spots resulting from taking the Magic stone from the pile of zombie corpses.
Although the result was worth it and he got his magic crystal, but he was not used to doing dirty looking work like this.
If possible he wants to do a job that is not too troublesome, on the other hand he does not have to be burdened up like this.
He should have used Death's instant magic from the start.
If it had to choose, Rio would easily choose the instant magic of Death. That way he doesn't have to dirty his hands.
"Cleaning!"
A small wind blew towards him after he chanted the spell.
"This way it's clean now."
Rio stretched his hand muscles after finishing his work.
It seemed that all the bloodstains stuck on his hands and clothes had all disappeared, it was all thanks to his cleaning magic.
Once he was satisfied with the situation, he began to step away from the pool of blood.
He stopped about 200 meters from the scene. Precisely at a crossroads of the highway.
He shrugs his chin while thinking.
"Hm... The possibility of zombies in the city center is more in comparison in this area."
He nodded to himself while thinking.
The center of this city where there are many people. Want it during the day or night, most of the city residents around to go around here and there to find entertainment.
Moreover, he recalled that the opening grand opening Mal that had just been built was held in the area two days ago. There must have been a lot of very crowded crowds in that place.
But.... For most people such a place is a very dangerous place. Because in that place it is definitely more zombies compared to this area. And the chances of encountering a Mutant zombie with a higher level were not small.
Since he wanted to search for a more powerful being for the purpose of obtaining his Magic Stone, he was ultimately able to make a decision.
".... I've decided! I'm going downtown!"
