Chapter 38: Slime is The Solution
"I became a Meta Zombie—a zombie with intelligence and memory, but filled with the desire to kill humans. After that, I was killed by Master and resurrected with his skill, now living under his control so I no longer have the urge to kill humans," Alice finally explained what had happened to her.
Selena blinked several times upon hearing that, as if struggling to digest the information.
Then she looked at Liam, clearly confused about what to say next.
Meanwhile, Liam was focused on observing the Undead King, who was still busy fending off his attacks.
The monster flew higher into the air, but was continuously bombarded by wave after wave of light.
’It seems light really is his weakness. If I attacked with another element, I doubt he’d be this troubled—even if it was an endless assault,’ Liam thought.
’But... can he truly not die?’ he wondered.
As he continued watching, he noticed something strange: the Undead King’s skeletal body appeared to be regenerating on its own, almost like he had immense vitality. But that wasn’t exactly it.
’Living as death?’ Liam pondered, but it was something too abstract to fully comprehend.
Still, he was fairly certain the Undead King’s existence wasn’t without value.
The System had said he could be captured. So then what?
