A journey through the universes

Chapter 31: Chatter



Chapter 31: Chatter

– “Stop what!? Zombies absorb radiation? And how in general could I forget about radiation?” – I mentally shouted, in my head and smacked myself in the face with gusto.

– Such superpowers as China, Russia and America have already partially used their nuclear arsenal. Other countries, too, do not want to lag behind them. –

How much radiation was released into the atmosphere? God. Not zombies, so these bitches will help to die. Damn… This is just the beginning. There are also “nuclear power plants” all over the world. And even if the nuclear strike did not cover them… Without maintenance personnel, they may also soon take off… Pi###ts.

– It’s not that bad, sir. Zombies absorb radiation very quickly. So you should not be afraid of radiation. –

Well, at least something good. That’s just it…

– “Jarvis… and how fast have zombies started to evolve?” –

“I can’t tell you exactly, sir. About ten times. –

Great. It turns out that in about a few years all zombies will be stronger and faster than a trained person, and they will also have some brains. Just wonderful. The chances of humanity are almost zero.

With these unpleasant thoughts, I went to see how the others were doing. Even on the approach, arguments and shouts were heard.

Soon I saw such a picture…

Soichiro, Yuriko, and Saya were almost completely surrounded by people arguing. There were many reasons. And they’re all mostly delusional…

– Soichiro-san, we demand that a temple be chosen instead of a port! Only there we can atone for our sins! And not only their own, but also everyone in the camp! – said a group of fanatics.

– It is excluded. Not only is the temple incredibly far away, but it is also in the mountains. Moreover, how will we survive there? Soichiro shook his head.

– Salvation will come through suffering! Not everyone is worthy of the Lord’s forgiveness and sacrifices are inevitable! If dozens die for the sake of one, but a pure soul, everything will not be in vain! Please Soichiro-san listen to your heart! Open your soul and mind to God! –

– No and no again! We’re going to the port! – the local leader stood his ground.

– You are murderers! And cover up the same criminals as you! Go and stop that butcher with the sword! How many innocent, sick people he has already killed! As soon as the epidemic ends, I will contact the law enforcement agencies and you will not be well! – a middle-aged woman with a short haircut was tearing and throwing. The rage on her face was clearly visible, as was the insane gleam in her eyes

– Hmm! – chuckled Saya – Good luck with that, crazy bitch! –

– Oh, you little trash! How do you talk to adults!? Did you hear her? And she’s their daughter, by the way! Nothing surprising! They are raising the same bandit as themselves! –

“Why should we move, Yuriko-san?” It’s already become safe. And these monsters are walking outside. Let’s not be in a hurry. –

– Unfortunately, without electricity, our estate has become completely unsafe. – Yuriko spread her hands – The port is well protected and without electricity. In addition, you can find a lot of provisions and materials there. –

– Well… okay. Can we have dinner before we go out? –

– Unfortunately, dinner will be served only after arrival at the port. There is no time at all. Besides, it’s easier to walk on an empty stomach. –

– Soichiro-san, when we are already moving out! Zombies won’t wait! –

– We need to go to the temple! –

– What kind of a temple do you have? There is no God, you idiot! People are just sick! They’re not demons! –

– Repent! Repent, mad woman, and God will forgive you! –

“Am I the mad one?” Did you see yourself!? Shove your god up your ass and run to your stinking temple yourself! We will stay here and wait for the military! –

– No! We will go to the port for Soichiro-san! –

– No! We…–

All this mess would be quite funny if it weren’t for the zombies hammering at the gate.

My other teammates were not visible. Well, except for Alice, who looked at this performance with sadness.

– And how long have they been like this, mm? – I said, walking up to her.

– Brother? Yes, for a long time… Why are they fighting? – she asked me with honest and naive eyes.

– There are many reasons for this, but mostly it’s fear. Also, most likely in this way they release the accumulated stress. –

– I don’t understand the latter… But… But if they are afraid, then why don’t they unite before trouble? Why are they fighting instead? –

– Because they are stupid. Don’t be like them stupid Alice and read a lot. Ok? I said in a gentle voice and stroked her head.

– Well, I won’t be as stupid as they are and I will read. Read a lot. –

– Well done. The right approach! I said and walked towards the crowd.

Since I wasn’t hiding, I was noticed pretty quickly.

– Maniac! Do you have the courage to show up right here!? – this crazy woman yelled at me.

“Don’t shout at the knight of our Lord, who spared no effort to protect his faithful servants from unholy forces!” the fanatics said at the same time, looking at me almost with adoration.

– What kind of knight is he? He hacked innocent people just like that! He thinks he can get away with it! –

Ignoring all this, he approached Soichiro.

– I have achieved my goal. Zombies at the main gate are no longer a threat. For now. –

– Great job, Yuki Shiro. We have almost everything ready, too. It will be possible to move out soon. –

Oh, I hope the rest of the way to the port will be calm.

“Jarvis, I have a question for you.” –

–At your service, sir.” –

“Tell me. I’ve killed over a thousand zombies. Don’t they give me experience for them? Why is my level not rising?” –

– You’ve almost raised the level, sir. There are only about fifty zombies left to kill. As for your question, everything is simple here. –

– “I’m listening.” –

– Your level is too high for them. For you, this is a “small fish”” and therefore there is so little experience. –

– Eh… unpleasant. That is, the greater the danger and difficulty for me, the more experience I get? –

“You’ve got it right, sir. –

– What if I tie weights to my hands? Will it increase the experience? –

– Of course! I repeat, the more difficult it is for you, the more experience! The greater the danger, the greater the benefit! –

– It looks like I have an idea how to improve both training and leveling. It remains only to find a safe place, a workshop and materials. –
