CH9 : Trial of power

  " Oh wow, that's like a free exp station. "

  Anyway, before doing this strange trial, I will check the skill books and the boxes. I opened first the boxes, 4 of them were empty.. From the 3 others I got.

  " So there isn't only speed apple, quite good to know. Maybe in the futur I will have intelligence apple. "

  " Finaly something to store items ! No matter what will come next in the box this is by far the best reward I could get. "

  This backpack was grey, not really big, poor quality and look like a kid school backpack. Since they had nothing to store and nothing to carry stuff this little bad boy will make everyone happy.

  " How long is the prize list ? I know I opened only a few but still would be good to know the amount of items that I can get from this. " As soon as I said that another message appear.

  I didn't know how to react.. This system is listening to what we say, and what we do. It feels almost like i'm being stalked, kind of pervert in my opinion.. Does this guys have fun watching us ?

  Well anyway, now it was the turn of the 3 skill books, i'm praying so hard to not get some useless skill..

  " Exactly what I need right now, I'm so happy.. What the fuck is wrong with you shity world ?? Do you think I realy need this in order to grow stronger.. Anyway, let's calm down I still have two other chances. "

  " I really don't know what to say anymore.. " I imagine myself in front of a strong enemy and say " Water splash " Even I laugh in despair.

  " Alright, this is a useful skill against Zombie since they are undead. "

  Without any hesitation I open the " Holy aura " book and learn the skill. I needed more information about this spell.

  " This skill will be useful for me but also for my friends, killing their first zombie with my weapon and this skill will be easier than when I kill my first one. "

  Now that everything is set up, it's time for this weird trial of power. I put my hand on the blue lighted crystal.

  " YES, Give me those free exp. "

  Suddenly my sight became dark, after 10 seconds I find myself in a weird place, it was a big white and dark open place, the sky was black, no light except the one emitted by two near collapsed moons. In the middle, the same blue lighted crystal was there.

  I quickly open my backpack and eat one apple of speed, one constitution and equip me with the axe. I was now ready to kill and get the best rewards possible.

  The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

  The first wave of monsters appear, it was five lvl1 Zombies.

  " Come at me weaklings ! "

  I was so exited because I didn't have to walk in order to find something to hunt, they just came at me. I didn't activate any skill to keep my mana full, nobody knows what monster will appear at high wave. The first wave was really easy as I clear it in less than 2 minutes. What happen next was really weird, as soon as I killed the last Zombie, they all disappear, all the bloods and organs on the floor were cleaned up in less than 2 seconds. I couldn't even react about it since the next wave appear..

  Now it was five lvl1 and one lvl2, It was still easy since my high level and with the apple. My axe started to crack.. I check the durability, it was down to 6.

  " Oh.. This is really bad, without any weapon I will have to use my mana.. "

  My fortify was now draining 6 mana per seconds, I can hold it a little bit more than 11 seconds.

  The next wave started and was almost the same as the last one, but with one lvl2 more. I easily took out the low level Zombies, but when I started attacking the strong one, my axe shattered..

  " I'm pretty sure that my luck is negativ.. "

  Time to use my broken skill. To lower the mana cost, the only moment I will use it, it's when i'm sure I will hit right in the head and make it last only one second. The wave was clear faster than the two other because I use mana and could instantly kill them.

  The fourth wave was different, this time no lvl1, but instead four lvl2. For me it's easier than the last one because there were less monster and since I can one shot them, it's pretty easy. All of them had a hole in their head due to my absurd skill. My clothes at the start of the apocalypse where completely white, before entering the Trial, they were half red half yellow due to my sweating. Guess which colors it was now, red, full of red everywhere. My mana drop to a little over the half. I might be able to clear the wave 5, but not higher. Well it's fine since i'm only lvl 6 and specializes in intelligence, I only rely on one spell and it's really manavore.

  Wave five appear. Five lvl2 and one lvl 1. It wasn't one like in the first wave don't misunderstand, this Zombie is clearly way more powerful than the lvl2.

  " Dam, wave five is clearly a huge milestone for low level human like me.. I need to be careful about this Zombie, his dexterity is double mine even with a speed apple, and force well.. Seven times higher. " I sigh in despair because I was really weak.

  Like always, I crushed the head of all lvl2, fortunately the corpse disappear after each wave, otherwise we could think that we were in a butcher shop with bloods covering the whole floor.

  " Now it's your turn to die exp on feet. "

  I never imagine that I would regret my confidence.. The zombie in an instant rush to me, his speed was way faster than me, the only thing I could do was to evade his attack. Unfortunately I couldn't evade in time, with his speed and force, I fell to the ground and huge scar appear on my neck. With my leftover mana, I can use fortify for 3 seconds at most, gonna be tough even just hit him once, this remind me the fight yesterday with the lvl2.. This time the unknown light won't save me, I can only rely on my power.

  If only the axe didn't break.. The only " weapon " I had was the wand, wooden stick was more appropriate. I didn't even bother to fight with hit since my fist will hit harder.

  I stood up with anger in my eyes, I hate being bullied. Some blood drop on the ground which annoy me even more. I rush at him, was ready to activate my skill the moment I hit his face. I did hit him and he receive quite a lot of damage but he was still alive, but at the same time he counter attack, my belly was full of blood.. My health drop to half.

  My stamina was also depleting by a lot, I have only 2 hit possible with fortify.. And also only two more hit before dying.

  Same thing as before, we both clash and both receive damage..

  " This is a deja-vu scene.. The one who attack first will win. "

  Before I could rush at him, the same glowing white light with a female voice appear..

  " Dodge right and hit him with an uppercut. Good luck. " Said the unknown female voice.

  I wanted to ask who she was, but she already disappear.. Anyway, she already help me, I will follow her advice.

  " I will destroy you so badly. "

  My blood was boiling in rage, I rush at him, evade right like she said and hit him right in the head, before hiting him I use fortify, I could see for the first time some spark on my fist. The result was unbelievable, the head of the Zombie exploded, a small shockwave was even visible. The floor was painted in red with the blood..

  " She can even predict the futur.. Who is she exactly ? " I was shocked but relief that she helped me again.

  Even if I failed, I was happy that I didn't die.

  " I got so much stuff, this Trial is for sure a gold mine. "

  I also level up, I am now 7. I'm really weak without weapon and without skill, I will invest in force for this time. I also level up " Gigawatt fortify " to lvl 7 since it's my only good skill for now.

  " I wonder what the City box is ? Maybe something that create a fortified city, well it will be OP but i'm really hoping it is. "
