RE:BORN Zombie

18 High Level Monsters



“All I did was take a nap for some days, and such a character has appeared in my dungeon. I just need a little more, and those foolish humans will suffer, surely.” A mysterious voice said.

“With the group at the higher floor and this arrogant one that is challenging my dungeon alone, no matter, they will all perish. Before they get to the 48th floor, my package should have arrived.” The voice said, before letting out a sinister laughter that echoed through a hollow space shrouded in darkness.

“That was odd.” Victor said, as he looked at the corpses. This was the first time monsters had behaved this way. It was clear that they were being drawn to him, and the was no mention of something like this from the adventurers.

“More are coming, hmm. Let’s see…”

Victor could tell that this was just the first wave, as he could hear more thundering steps closing in on his location. He casually brought out his map device and turned it on to look at the map for the current floor..

“Not as complex, but larger. It seems as the dungeon advances, the floors increase in size. Got it.” Victor was able to memorize the map so he didn’t need to keep checking it as he moved. After he was done, he put it back into his inventory while heading towards the path beasts were coming from.

It was easier to go to them instead of waiting. Besides, he wasn’t interested in their flesh. Creating a body with such weak monsters would only serve to create something mediocre in the end. For his second form, Victor was looking to create a world ending monster, one that would force the whole world to unite if they ever hoped to go against it. The first form would just serve as a convenient husk for him to easily move around and enjoy a normal life.

He easily finished his business in the sixth floor, and advanced to the seventh. There was no need to dilly-dally any longer wasting time in the lower low level floors. From the seventh onward, Victor planned to just blaze through, with his primary goal being to reach the higher high level floors.

Victor continued his descent to the higher floors, and just like the adventurers said, the sixth floor down to the fourteenth floor had beast type monsters as the more prominent monster type. Out of every monster he encountered, there was none that was note worthy, and none possessed a desirable skill, so he just blasted through.

The fifteenth floor onward seemed to be also ordinary, filled with weak monsters roaming all over and nothing eye catching enough. The information was that he would encounter insects and snakes, but so far Victor had only been killing insects and was yet to see any reptile. This of course, was only up to the twenty-first floor.

As soon as Victor got to the 21st floor, he noticed an abnormal silence that he was yet to experience so far. It was as though no monsters roamed the dungeon floor. Victor could only think of it as the attitude of reptiles, being silent and sneaky. Was this really normal? He questioned himself, but it was usless to worry. Few assassin reptiles wouldn’t stop him from his goal.

He pulled out the map device from his inventory as it then materialized into his hands, then he proceeded to study the floor map. On the map, there was an open section that was quite wide, at least if Victor was to convert it to actual size, it would be as wide as a football pitch, if cut in half.

“Why do I get the feeling that there’ll be something eye catching there?” Victor asked, as he thought about it. If it were in games, such an area would house probably a raid boss at the least, and a big one at that.

“My instincts are telling me to go site seeing and take a break from this constant descent. Heh… I would want to stop and catch my breath, but I don’t even tire, nor do I feel tired.” As Victor said these words, a thought about his old world came into his mind.

‘If I turned my father into a zombie earlier in his life, won’t he and his boss worship me as a god? Since zombies don’t tire, he would basically live at the office and work 24/7… I returned, I would become a multi billionaire.’ Victor thought as ideas formed in his head.

“One zombie worker, one million dollars. The entire world’s government would be at my doorstep practically begging me to take their money and shit.. Hmm, good thoughts, good thoughts.” Something Victor had noticed was that his emotions were practically almost gone. The emotions and feeling were still there, but as if everything was suppressed. Though, this hadn’t surprised Victor in the least, he was undead after all. That was one of the things they had going for them.

Not being affected and never being under the influence of his emotions, Victor would always be able to thing and process situations properly and efficiently. He carried on, heading towards the large area he had seen on the map. After some time, Victor arrived at the location, and the sight before him completely threw him off his balance for the slightest millisecond. There was a lot of fog in the entire area, but it wasn’t thick enough to stop hinders Victor’s vision.

‘Is that an actual monster?’ Victor thought to himself as he moved closer and into the fog slowly.

What he was seeing before him currently was an enormous figure that only appeared as a shadow through the fog. Victor couldn’t tell exactly what kind of monster it was, but the size alone was enough to terrify even a high ranking player.

After getting within a certain range, the whole area started shaking wildly, as though they were at the epicentre of an earthquake. The intense rumbling continued for a short moment, and as it did, the fog covering the entire area began clearing, and by the time the rumbling had subsided, the fog was completely gone.

“Hmm…”

Before Victor, were two gigantous monsters that stood at the same height with a story building for the spider-looking monster, and nothing less than a couple hundred feet for the serpent. Their combined structure was what gave Victor the impression that these monsters were one when he could only see then through the foggy area.

“System, identify these monsters.” Victor said, completely calm and unfazed by the ferocious beasts towering over him.

[Dark Poisonous Spider]

[Giant Forest Snake]

As Victor heard the monster’s names, his expression turned a bit dumb as he stared at them. ‘Poisonous spider? Forest snake? Why is poison in the name of an already poisonous species? And What the hell is a forest creature doing in a cave? The terrain was not even modified to fit the name! Come to think of it, where did the fog come from?’ Victor exclaimed in his mind. Surely he thought, whoever was responsible for this blunder in design had to pay very dearly.

As these thoughts bottled up in his mind though, Victor was secretly smiling. In fact, it wasn’t only a smile, he was grinning as sinisterly as a grim reaper who had found extra souls. Apart from the names, the system also displayed their levels, and these were officially the first high levelled monsters Victor had encountered in this other world, and he was about to fight them!

[Dark Poisonous Spider Level 47]

[Giant Forest Snake Level 50]

Well, these weren’t exactly high levelled to the bone, but-

“Hmm? He has arrived? Kikiki, let’s see how you disperse and beg for your live! Worm!” A voice said from a dark room.
