Chapter 31: Rewards for killing the first 100.
Although it falls back meters away, the level 15 zombie instantly stood up before rushing again toward Leo.
"Damn... This is too hard." Leo wiped the sweat on his forehead as he punched the zombie again on its head.
As he was about to deliver another punch to the zombie's head, a level 16 zombie with long legs like a horse and sharp claws like a dagger suddenly appeared beside him with a whoosh... Quickly stabbing its sharp claw toward Leo's body.
Cling!
Leo's eyes instantly constricted as he watched the approaching claws in horror, gritting his teeth Leo decisively abandoned the flying bronze in the distance as he quickly took out another bronze knuckle from his inventory before manipulating it toward the claws of the zombie. Barely deflecting the claws of the level 16 zombie!
Although Leo's action seems slow, it only happened in an instant!
Boom!
Sliding meters away due to the force of the claws, Leo wiped the trace of blood in his mouth. On his face, a deep frown could be seen.
"My stamina would not last long..." Leo silently thought as his gaze turned grim, it had already been a while since he started fighting yet the phenomena in the air still continued.
Although it gives him a lot of experience points to the point that he was only short away to level 18, the pressure he bears is not so simple.
In a short while when he gained his physical body, he already managed to kill less than 25 zombies in levels 10 to 17. Unfortunately, even though he gains a lot of horror points and exp the problem of his physical body begins to show up.
The lack of Stamina!
In just half an hour of him fighting the zombies, Leo's stamina already dropped by 2/3 of the amount! More than 50 points of his stamina!
There are pros and cons of having a physical body! It's unlike my skills that only cost a little bit of my mana!
Leo gritted his teeth as he tilted his body slightly to avoid the incoming claws of the level 16 zombie in front of him, at the same time he threw a punch in its head in retaliation with all his strength...
Boom!
Being hit by the silver knuckle, the Level 16 zombie groans slightly in pain as it stands up before stomping toward the ground, instantly vanishing on its original location, only leaving a dent in the ground.
"F*ck off this couldn't do!" Leo cursed out loud upon seeing the speed of the zombie as he took out all his skill scrolls on his inventory. The scrolls he saves and scrolls that he can't be used when he doesn't have a physical body!
Ding!
"Learn all the skills! I don't care about the cost!"
Ding!

Feeling the fatigue slightly receded, Leo roared loudly before dealing a blow toward the level 15 zombie head...
Crack...
With a cracking sound, the head of the level 15 zombie bleeds with green disgusting liquid. Although its head already cracked, the level 15 zombie groaned madly, still planning to bite the human in front of it.
Bang! Crack!
Unfortunately, before the zombie could bite the human in front of him a consecutive hard punch hit its head, causing its head to have a deep dent on it before it completely fell to the ground.
+30 exp points!
+500 horror points!
"Huff~" Leo took a deep breath upon finally seeing the level 15 zombie's lifeless body on the ground. Shifting his gaze toward the long-legged zombie in the distance, Leo quickly rushed toward it, intending to also crack its head with his knuckles.
As for his bronze knuckle in the distance, Leo was currently manipulating it to hinder the zombies ( Low-level ones) from approaching him and the house.
It could be said, that he was fighting two groups at the same time!
Although he had no idea how he could do it, Leo blamed this on his high soul power!
...
Soon another minute passed by. With another punch from Leo, the long-legged zombie finally died under his silver knuckle.
Swish!
Boom!
Panting greatly, Leo bent down slightly as he picked out the item that materialized beside the dead body of the long long-legged zombie.
"Huff~ I couldn't... underestimate zombies below my level." Leo couldn't help but gasp deeply as he remembered his fight with the long-legged zombie earlier.
If not for the "Mist of Illusion" skill that weakened its senses and gave the zombie some hallucination effects in addition to the "Wisp of Poison" that corroded its internal organ, Leo wouldn't be able to kill it at all.
Shaking his head slightly as he manipulated his bronze knuckle to hit the zombies in the distance, Leo quickly scanned the item he got from the level 16 zombie.
Ding!

Fortunately, it is not another knuckle.
Without further ado, Leo instantly wears the dark green boots... Jumping slightly, feeling the significant increase in his speed, Leo with a swoosh sound instantly rushed toward the zombies in the distance.
Bang! Boom!
Soon another 2 minutes passed by. As Leo was about to continue killing the zombies in the distance a sound of notification suddenly appeared in front of him.
