The Bastard In The Zombie Apocalypse 8 Level Up!

He didn't encounter anyone.

When he finally reached the first floor, he saw that the entrance was locked. A chain was wrapped around the handles and was linked together with a large padlock.

'It was most likely locked by the security guard,' he thought.

He started to look around or find a way to go outside.

He went at the back of the building, remembering that there's a backdoor.

On his way to the back, he saw blood on the floor. There was a security guard sitting on a chair, staring on the ground and holding a wooden stick – it had blood on it.

'Looks like he had a rough night, huh?'

Nathan went on a corner and deactivated [Coward's Way]. Who knows what kind of reaction the security guard will have if he suddenly appeared before him.

"Hello? Anybody here?" Nathan called out.

The security guard jerked the moment he heard Nathan's voice.

When Nathan came to his vision, he quickly got into a fighting position.

"Stay where you are!"

"Yo, chief. It's me, Nathan. I'm from apartment C-2. Don't you remember me?"

"Nathan?" The security guard seems to be mentally unstable as his eyes were darting elsewhere.

'This is bad. I will be lucky if I can even convince him immediately without using force.'

"Chief. What's going on? Can I go out? I want to go out and find my cousin but the entrance is locked. He works at Saint Holy Child Hospital. I'm worried about him."

"No!!!" the security guard screamed. "You can't go out! There are monsters outside! Even my friend Brad was attacked! Brad… Brad… Buddy, I'm sorry…" he started sobbing.

'This is really bad. I can't stay here forever and not hunt for zombies.'

"Chief, let me go out. My brother has many friends in the government. He will be able to help us out."

"No! I'm in charge of the security here! You will have to do what I say!"

Nathan quickly activated his skill. When he disappeared, the security guard was dumbfounded.

Nathan immediately rushed toward the security guard and punched him in the jaw which immediately deactivated his invisibility.

The security guard was knocked out cold.

Nathan immediately took the handcuffs from the security guard and checked his pockets. He found a set of keys on the right pocket of the security guard.

"Got it. Now, which key is for the back door?"

Before leaving, he took one last look at the security guard.

'Should I handcuff him? He seems rather unstable. Should I tie him up instead? Where will I even find a rope?'

He pondered for a moment before finally saying, 'I'll just leave him. Who knows, I might have some use for this handcuffs later.'

He went to the backdoor and started trying the keys.

Kacha!

Finally, the backdoor opened.

He activated [Coward's Way] and headed out.

***************************

Outside the apartment building.

He found himself in an alley. Up ahead was the main road where he saw zombies loitering around.

He moved towards the closest zombie.

Details about the zombie immediately went to his brain.

[Level 1 Zombie].

'Level 1, huh?'

He gripped the Training Sword tighter with his right hand. When he was finally near the zombie, he slashed towards the neck which immediately deactivated his invisibility.

Whoosh!

The zombie's head fell down.

The other zombies nearby immediately rushed towards him. But what he didn't consider was that the zombies were not slow, they were in fact running!

'The fuck?!'

He immediately activated [Coward's Way] and ran away.

He stopped at a corner and was currently out of breath. He checked his status.

'Damn zombies. System.'

'One zombie gives 50% percent experience points? I see.

Wait, were there any drops after I killed the zombie? There's got to be some drops. Or else, how could humans survive from the zombie apocalypse if the zombies don't drop weapons?'

He went back to the area where he killed his first zombie. There wasn't any.

'I just need to continue killing.'

He moved towards another zombie nearby. It was also a Level 1 Zombie.

He slashed and decapitated it.

Ding!

A voice popped up inside his head and said, "Congratulations on reaching Level 2. All stats increased by 1. No available skill points."

He quickly checked his status chart.
