Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen

Chapter 19: Battle Rush, Isabella's First Skill

After his last attack, many zombies entering the main road started walking towards the street, where he blasted the ten iron seeds by controlling them with his Metal Control skill.

It didn't decrease zombies on the main road much, but it was helpful nonetheless since the incoming zombies were directed elsewhere.

"Now we can go out with less trouble," Erix said as he landed on the ground.

"Powerful," Serina muttered as she looked at Erix.

'Humph, we will also get stronger,' Jacob thought with slight envy.

Rin grinned and waved her sword as she unleashed a sword beam and destroyed a car and the gate behind it.

"Let's go."

The group moved forward while maintaining the formation. Isabella was still a bit nervous, but after Erix's and Rin's display of power, she felt better.

"Isabella, I'll send a zombie towards you. Be sure to kill it with the gun Rin gave you."

"A-Alright," Isabella said with a slight stammer.

"Get hold of yourself. No need to be nervous or scared," Erix said without looking back.

Isabella took a deep breath and nodded, her eyes filled with determination.

'I'll get strong!'

She held a magic wand in her left hand and the Flame Barista pistol in her right hand, which was her main hand.

After the group passed through the gate and burning remains of the car, they quickly encountered zombies!

"Bodyguards! Disable zombies with your gun, but land a killing blow with your fists if you want to level up," Toshin shouted as he slashed a zombie into two with his sword before kicking another.

"Smash their heads with a melee weapon or crack their skull with your gun."

Jacob and Serina also killed three zombies while Lena was shooting with her Uncommon-grade Handgun.

Unlike the bodyguards' guns, her gun was dropped by a zombie, so she could still level up and make monster drop loot if she killed with her Handgun.

As indicated by her accuracy, she was good with guns, which mostly landed headshots.

The bullets of her gun were special as they would turn into a fist-sized drill after hitting a zombie and proceed to pierce it before drilling another zombie.

One bullet, Two zombies!

Erix and Rin bore the most burden, but their killing speed was the fastest. Erix's dagger was flying and killing all zombies below level 20 instantly, while a single swing of his hammer could push back multiple zombies as he cleared the path by shoving them away.

Isabella also killed her first zombie with Flame Barista as she put a hole into the zombie's head at black point range after Erix sent it behind. Her first killed zombie dropped a white patterned treasure chest, while no treasure was dropped from the zombies that Erix and Rin killed.

"I guess newbies have a higher chance of dropping treasure chest. We already dropped some when we were lower level," Rin said.

"Yep. We need to kill monsters above our level to get that invisible exp to level and chance to drop treasure chests."

On the other hand, Isabella looked at the various notification after putting away the treasure chest in her inventory.

[You have killed a level 5 zombie. +2 Strength, +3 Stamina]

[You have reached level 1. You have gained 2 unassigned status points]

[Your random defensive skill is being generated]

[… Congratulations! You have acquired a 1st Tier active skill, Frost Shield]

===

[Frost Shield (1st Tier active skill): Conjures an icy rectangle shield of pure frost power. The shield can block physical and magical attacks depending on how high the user's magic stat is.]

-Cost: 30 mana points

-Duration: 5 minutes

===

Isabella saw the skill's information as a smile appeared on her face. 'I can protect with this.'

But she had no time to be distracted as Erix sent two more zombies toward her.

Holding the pistol, she shot twice as the flaming bullets instantly burned those zombies.

[You have killed two level 6 zombies. +5 Strength, +6 Stamina]

[You have reached level 2…]

"Everyone! Watch out for those big bees!" Erix said as he saw six giant bees the size of dogs flying toward them. The shining sting in their asses made everyone shiver as they saw the bees.

They didn't want to get stung by that!

Isabella quickly used her latest acquired skill as she waved her hand.

Erix and others had stopped moving after seeing bees and soon saw a rectangle Frost Shield towering in the front.

Those bees wanted to come closer, but they crashed into the Frost Shield that suddenly appeared and got angry as their eyes turned brighter red!

*Buzzzz…*

All mutated Bees angrily buzzed as they shot their big sharp stinger from their asses!

Their attack was fast, and nobody could react. In their consciousness, all of them hoped Frost Shield to block their attacks.

*Crrrerere!*

The stingers hit the Frost Shield and…. It completely blocked the stingers! The Frost Shield was utterly unharmed, not even a crack!

"So tough?!" Toshin and others were surprised.

Those bees were over level 20, but their attacks were blocked easily!

"Stop gawking and start attacking!" Rin said as she jumped high with her high strength and agility before landing on a Bee.

*Slash!*

After cutting that Bee into two with her sword, she jumped again to land on another Bee and cut off its wings with her sword before kicking it toward Isabella.

"Sis Isabella, kill this one! You might get a better treasure chest," Rin said as she jumped off and arrived beside Erix in the formation.

Isabella nodded while quickly pointing the pistol toward the incoming giant Bee. This time, she infused 10 mana points into the pistol for more damage as a stronger flaming bullet shot out and hit the Bee!

*Cris!*

The mutated Bee issued a short cry before it turned into ashes!

Out of everyone present, Isabella's magic stat was highest, at 124 with the magic wand, so her mana was more potent! Her high magic stat was also why Frost Shield was so strong.

[You have killed a level 23 Enraged Bee. +4 Agility. +2 Health]

[You have reached level 5 from level 3. You have gained 4 unassigned status points]

As expected, the Bee also dropped a treasure chest!

It was a cyan-patterned treasure chest!

[ Uncommon Treasure Chest ]

"Open it later!" Erix said as he punched in the front with his full power, creating a powerful force as several zombies directly exploded!

Most of the zombies were below level 10, so creating a path and killing them was easy for him.

Everyone continued moving while Isabella manipulated the Frost Shield with her wand and circulated it around the group once to push all the zombies away and make some space.

"Thanks, Miss Isabella," Serina said as that shield routing helped her.

Before the zombies closed in again, everyone continued moving forward while killing zombies.

All bodyguards also managed to drop at least one Common Treasure Chest after killing zombies and leveled up several times!

On the other hand, Isabella was getting used to fighting and actively started killing zombies with the pistol.
