God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse-Chapter 60 How To Kill Zombies?

Ground Floor of the Libra building.

Infested with about 140ish zombies.

There were about 40 near the entrance to the first floor stairs trying to break into the first floor.

A few (20?) more in the waiting room.

Within the receptions, about 30 to 40 were roaming around, entering and exiting the building slowly.

A few (10 to 12) were around the blocked entrance to the basement/parking area.

The rest 30-40 were scattered in the room on the other side of the building within the staff rooms.

At this time, all the zombies, except the ones near the stairs to the first floor, were simply taking a walk in the hotel.

It was quite peaceful-

-BOOOM!!!!

Or not?

…

"Thanks Carol," I smiled at Caroline as I asked her to kick one of the zombies in front of us, pushing back the herd. It would have taken too much time to kill the zombies when all of them were about to jump at me at once, so I guess this should reduce a bit of our 'expedition time.'

"..."

I looked at the people behind me, looking at Caroline with eyes popping out of their sockets. Their mouth was open up so wide that about a couple of eggs could be easily put in their mouth.

I chuckled before moving forward.

[Temporal Deceleration!]

Slowing the time down, I then began clearing the path smoothly.

[Ding!]

[You have killed an E-Grade zombie!]

[+50 Exp!]

'Hmmm… I am still getting Exp?' I thought, a bit confused as I recalled that I can't really level up now.

[Level System Locked!]

[You won't be able to level up anymore until the following requirements are fulfilled:

Kill 1000 E-Grade Zombies (1/1000)

Kill 100 D-Grade Zombies

Kill 12 Lesser C-Grade Zombies 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m

Kill 5 C-Grade Zombie]

'Does that mean I can still gain Exp but not level up?' I thought as I began hunting the other zombies as well.

A few minutes later, the zombies in front were cleared. I moved forward and downward towards the ground floor.

Tracing the area around, I found about a dozen zombies trying to get into the basement and a few more in the reception area ahead.

Looking to my left, there was a door open to the storage room. Maybe there could be a zombie there?

"Oi! One of you, come here!" I commanded as I turned towards them and fear stricken, not one of them dared to look at me. Though at my next statement, almost everyone moved towards me hurriedly as I spoke,

"Those who won't come here will come with me outside of the building."

Sigh

"All right. Three of you, go into the storage area and check for zombies. If there are any, just inform me. You don't need to kill them or anything, just see if there are any," I spoke and though they were scared, they nodded.

It was much better than fighting against the zombies.

"Caroline. Take care of them. I will clear this area and the reception. Those who aren't going to the storeroom, come with me. All of you will at least kill one zombie today," I declared before…

[Temporal Deceleration!]

I killed those dozen zombies at the basement entrance before moving towards the reception area. I kept an eye out for zombies in the nearby rooms. Also, for any D-Grade zombies around here.

Luckily, I didn't find even a single D-Grade zombie yet, though there seems to be a crowd concentrated in the waiting area.

'Should I ask Caroline to clear this, too?' I pondered a little before deciding to clear it myself.

[Eyes of the Time Keeper!]

I activated foresight just in case before using [Temporal Deceleration] again.

Since the zombies were quite numerous in that small space, it took some time to kill all the zombies inside that room. About 15 to 20 minutes, I guess?

Well, I found out the reason why they were concentrated in that room. They were feeding on a couple of zombies, which probably had formed the Core.

The zombies who were eating the other zombies were stronger than the rest, probably on the verge of evolving, but since they hadn't evolved, killing them wasn't really that hard; just a tad bit harder.

I took the Zombie Cores from the almost evolved zombies before getting out of the waiting area. Observing the people standing there, I asked,"are they done?"

By 'they' I meant the people whom I asked to check the storage. They nodded as the front person spoke,"there were no zombies. Just supplies and… a few dead bodies of a couple who killed themselves using knives." ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.cｏ𝓶

There was a bitter look on the one who spoke and I sighed while speaking,"well, those who went to check in the storage room. You guys can grab supplies and take up as much as you can. The others, come with me."

I spoke before looking at a couple of zombies coming towards us.

[Lesser E-Grade Zombie: A normal zombie, whose zombie genes have completely taken over its human genes

Reward for Killing: +25 Exp]

[E-Grade Zombie: A zombie who has gained the power of another zombie and now is on the path of evolution to the next phase

Reward for Killing: +50 Exp]

Turning around, I chose one of them randomly and said,"you come here first."

His body was shaking a little but gulping a bit, he came towards me. I then passed him a knife and spoke,

"I will help you. Just try to kill that zombie. Use your head. Smash his head. Now, let's go."

The couple of zombies were reaching forward faster and faster and moving towards them.

-Slash!

[+50 Exp!]

I then stepped back as I let that guy move forward.

At first, he was just shaking, but then… he built up courage and dashed forward blindly with that knife in his hand and then used all his strength on that zombie… and missed.

The zombie was about to 'itadakimasu' but I stopped him and pushed him away before looking at that frightened guy sitting on his butt, with his face as white as paper and spoke in a dominant tone,

"Try again."
