After getting the location of the Viking’s settlement from Drago, Paul organized an expedition. Since the Vikings were still reeling from their losses in the battle, now was the best time to deal them a fatal blow.
Fifty raiders were brought together to raid the Viking settlement.
“So far, we know the Vikings change their camp every month, and their current camp is here…” he pointed to a large area on the map that he had hung up. “It was once a university before the apocalypse, but it has been claimed by a super powerful monster. The Vikings are camping in an hostel close to the university gate. As long as the monster doesn’t come towards this part of its territory, it won’t sense them. Which means it won’t sense us either. We need to get there, hit them with

The air was acrid with a sharp, antiseptic scent, Gbolahan slowly opened his eyes to see a white ceiling. His senses were flooded with groans and the smell of antisceptics.As he sat up, vertigo hit him, accompanied by the faint memory of loud gunfire and snarls of zombies. The feeling of falling before everything went to black.‘What happened?’The vertigo faded, and his senses calmed down.‘Right, the zombies attacked in a swarm’, he looked around. He was in the clinic with several other patients. The clinic was, more or less, a hospital at this point. The walls had been expanded and more single bunks had been moved in.Some patients coughed every now and then, and Gbolahan could sense that their lif

Gbolahan watched the fear in the eyes of the guards proudly. It made him even more confident now.Solomon and Richard walked to the front of the guards, and Solomon gestured for the guards to stand down.“Gbolahan. It is good to see that you survived your ordeal. But, why are you doing this now? Are you trying to kill everyone in the base? What crimes did we commit?” Solomon was as straightforward as always.“Ahaha,” Gbolahan laughed, his hands covered in blood was raised beside him. “I want to draw the attention of the big fish, now that you two are here, listen well. Tell the base chief to assemble the council, you will know what I want when you old fogies all come together.”Solomon’s face changed and became serious, he knew they were not in the position to make
The Revenant Mutation Chapter 50: Riot
When the news of the events at the meeting room spread, the Base devolved into chaos, many called for Gbolahan’s head, while others supported the new rising power.A riot erupted.In the chaos, some hid themselves to avoid getting caught between the two sides, while others took the opportunity to do as they wanted, raiding the pantry and warehouses, ganging up on those they had bad blood with and killing each other. Till the moon rose in the sky, everything was too chaotic to control.Gbolahan stood on the barricade at the south wall, watching the pyres that was used to burn all the corpses from the Viking Invasion. There were no guards around, for the first time, the walls seemed desolate.James walked up to him.
The Revenant Mutation Chapter 51: The Nightwalker
The expedition team of King Moon left the base early in the morning, with the convoy from Sobi Barracks tagging along. After traveling for the most of the day, they had to avoid different dangerous locations again and again.At one point, they came across another Stormhide, but due to Paul and Victor’s enhanced senses, the convoy was able to avoid the area. By nightfall, they camped under a highway bridge in the city. The bridge provided a cover from the monsters that might notice them from the sky.Victor felt like he was camping out, which was a first. He never got the opportunity before today. Hanging from the plane’s cabin for four years definitely doesn’t count.Raiders and Soldiers shared stories around the campfire, which made their camp lively. Victor enjoyed every moment of it and he got to hear some intere
The Revenant Mutation Chapter 52: A Headshot Is Lethal
Victor pushed aside the debris. He could feel the numbing pain from his arms, and the hot toxin rushing through his body. If he was human, he would be unconscious now. Victor could tell that a drop of that venomous liquid would kill an adult human. Paralysing them with a stroke and collapsing their lungs and heart in the process.This must have been the way that guard was taken down.Unfortunately for the zombie, a revenant was immune to toxins.Victor ran like a blur, joining Paul who had already engaged the zombie in a fierce battle.The zombie moved like it had no bones in its body, or like its bones could turn in all directions. It twisted in odd ways, dodging and striking the both of them from angles they couldn’t even expect. Although Victor was faster and stronger

Paul sat in silence for hours, although he lost track of time, so he couldn’t tell the difference.On the fifth hour, he heard the sound of flesh moving, his eyes shifted a bit.‘An illusion’He thought he must have imagined it.But the sound came again, this time, it lasted longer, and then it came again.Paul sped to Victor’s side, staring down at the younger man’s face.The blood around the hole in his head had dried, but he could hear movement within the corpse’s skull. Gray matter was shifting and reforming.Paul stood there, both in confusion and hope, for ten minutes. In ten minutes, the injured in the brain he

“Get off me! Get off me you bastard!”The shrill, yet enticing voice could be heard even before the door was pushed open.The door was opened with a bang, revealing two strong men dragging in Lewa who was still in her kitchen work clothes.James sat close to the window. This building was used once as a hiding spot during the Viking Invasion. The Viking leaders that snuck into the base were captured in this same compound.The room was spacious with a luxurious bed and it looked more like it would fit in an hotel better.“Leave her”, James commanded in a relaxed tone.The men released her and left the room, closing the door shut behind them.

Victor had never seen a monster like this before. Even the three-headed snake that was about 30 meters long, was still inferior to this.The lion stood at about fifty meters, long curved spikes trailing its spine down to the tail, with a tuft of sharp gleaming spikes on the tip of the tail. Definitely capable of cutting a man in half.The muscles on the lion’s body were well-defined, like it was hitting the gym every day and not missing legwork. It’s mane moved like it was underwater.Everyone was stunned to see the creature, it wa majestic and terrifying at the same time. This was definitely something above the Alpha-level.“Everyone in the trucks, now!” Paul commanded.His voice broke them out of their shock and they immedi

She unloaded a bolt, reloaded with a quick pump action, and fired again, and again.The crossbow bolts found their way into the Gar’s body, one of which poked a hole in its left wing.‘She’s good’, Victor praised her inwardly.He ran and leapt up into the air while the Alpha Gar was still reeling from the attack. He landed on the Alpha Gar’s back, the monster tried to shake him off, but Victor held onto its shoulder and in one smooth move, he pulled, snapping the bone and causing the Gar to fall to the ground in the middle of the camp.With the ground under them, Victor punched the back of the monster’s head, his psychic force infiltrated the Gar’s head before exploding within its skull, turning its brain into mush, a

When Victor woke up, the sun had already set. He found that his right arm had fully regenerated, he flexed his hand a bit, feeling the strength surging within it. Under his pillow was a bottle of blood, well kept to avoid being detected by others. He knew it must have been placed there by Paul while he slept.Although he had drunk his fill from the lion monster, he needed real human blood to make up for his lost vitality. The bottle was empty in no time, allowing him to finally feel vigorous once more. He couldn’t even remember how much his body ached just a few hours prior.After confirming that all his injuries were gone, he came out of the tent he was placed in to rest.The camp was having a campfire, and a man he couldn’t recognize was singing songs with a sonorous voice and his local guitar, s

Chapter 60: A Considerate Deal
In the council’s meeting room, Gbolahan sat with a beauty on his lap, she fed him slices of a tangerine. James sat on the first chair to the right, with Dotun and Kingsley on the first two chairs to his left. They had woken up overnight, only to hear that the Base had overgone massive changes. After discussing with Gbolahan, they found a common ground.Dotun was a thin man with a small tuft of hair on his chin. This was a contrast to the built Kingsley.Standing at the other end of the table was a man staring at them with aloofness, “If you can release our people and join forces with us, His Highness, Drottnar the First, promise to deliver to your right hand man…”, he gestured to James, “...the head of the people that hurt and killed his sister. His Highness, Drottnar the First, also promise you their full support during your tenure as the King of King Moon Bas

Victor felt some of his strength returning so he pulled the trunk out of his body, leaving a gaping bloody hole. The wood fell to the side with a thud.Victor began to crawl towards Paul. If not for the immense pain threshold that he had, he would have blacked out from the multiple injuries. In fact, the only reason he had to crawl was because his legs had been crushed from the waist down and were still healing. He couldn’t walk, so he had no choice but to crawl with his only remaining arm.After several laborous crawling, he finally reached Paul.“Cap?!” He called out, his voice lacked any strength. He prodded Paul, but the man only groaned in return.Seeing that the man was still alive, he pushed himself into a sitting positon and leaned against the lion’s

The monster groaned and pushed itself to its feet, slowly. Half its face was bloodied, and there was a hole where its right eye was. Victor could see most of its brain in that part had turned to mush. There were a deep crater in its chest as well, and some parts of the chest was mangled, probably from broken ribs. Blood poured out of its mouth like a river, and it was not breathing steadily anymore.‘The fuck?! Is this thing immortal?! Can’t you just die already?’“The vitality of a monster of this level is truly terrifying, I am sure parts of its heart was crushed from my attack. It was my strongest attack yet, and it is still standing. We are no match for it.” Paul lamented.It was now that Victor realized that Paul’s face was ashen, he was tired too.‘My attack also d

His mind could feel everything around him, and he could see himself from every angle like it was a movie.‘Is this the advancement Paul was talking about?’Bam!Paul hit the lion from the side again, sending it flying. He quickly crouched beside Victor to check if he was still alive.Victor gasped to life like he had just broken through the surface of water.He was looking into Paul’s dark eyes and he could see the smile on his Master’s face.“You’re a

Victor rolled like a grub on the floor, narrowly dodging a stomp from the lion. After rejoining the fight, he and Paul had coordinated their attacks. But the lion’s skin was too tough, and its muscles were resilient. They couldn’t land much damage, and they still had to avoid the lion’s almost unavoidable attacks.The lion took a chance, moving like a ghost, it hit Victor from above, and tried to stomp him to death, but missed.Paul tried to help, but he was hit aside by the lion’s tail. Victor got into a crouch, only to see the lion was already upon him. It was too fast.‘Shit!’Before he could act, the lion pressed him against the ground.One of its large, sharp claws pierced through Victor’s right chest, pinning him
