Rencarnation Room {Other Story line}

Chapter 3: Infected



His eyes scanned his surroundings. The right hand held the handle of the katana, preparing to slash at the 'something' that was coming. "Infected? It seems that the original plot of the story had already started when I woke up."

El recalled detailed information about the Last Human world setting.

On February 14th, a meteor shower carrying a mysterious virus fell to earth. Upon entering the atmosphere, the meteor shattered into many fragments, causing a meteorite shower and spreading the virus across the planet.

Although all of humanity was infected with the Abola Virus, 30% of the global population was able to resist the initial mutation, possessing unique genetic traits that made them immune to the virus.

The Abola Virus is the mysterious virus that triggered all the events in The Last Human series and is responsible for the sudden mutations in infected and evolved humans.

Shortly afterwards, a man staggering came from the entrance of the gymnasium. The figure had reddish skin with tumor-like lumps on his skin. He stared at El with a bloodthirsty gaze.

That figure was the Infected. Those affected by the Abola virus whose bodies and consciousness were unable to support various mutations and collapsed into man-eating creatures.

A common trait in all Infected was their desire for human flesh, instinctively geared towards preying on humans and seeking them out in higher or lower levels.

El's heartbeat pounded as he met the bloodthirsty gaze. El gulped with hesitation. "Now I understand the feeling of dealing with a zombie-like creature."

The Infected quickened its pace with a hoarse roar. "Roar!" The creature instantly spread its arms, about to pounce and eat El's flesh.

El took out the sword from its sheath and moved forward. Powerfully, El cut off the head of the Infected approaching his. Because the weakness of the infected according to the original manhua was their head and neck.

Craah!

The infected's head was cut off and fell to the floor. His blood gushed like a shower, coloring the floor and his uniform red. Shortly after, the infected's body fell down.

Ding!

For a beginner who was new to wielding a sword, El's movement when cutting the infected's neck was quite good. This was due to Rinnegan's insightful eye ability.

El's perception increased to the point that it interfered with his timing, causing too much stress on his body which tried to keep up with the increased reaction time, forcing his to adjust to move properly.

In addition, the Agi attribute of 6 and STR of 4 made El stronger and faster than before.

Receiving this experience, El suddenly wore a surprised expression. "Eh? Did I just behead someone? No, infected should no longer be human."

"But infected were once humans too." Suddenly her face became nauseous. "Ugh... I need to get used to it!"

"Overall, now I know how to complete mission three. The requirement is 3000 points, so that means I have to kill 60 infected. It's possible that I can complete the first mission at the same time."

Then, El sighed. "Killing 60 or more people, ugh... Just thinking about it makes me want to vomit."

Closing his eyes and solidifying his thoughts. Then took a deep breath and exhaled, reopening both eyelids. "Yosh! Stop complaining, El! You have to get used to it!"

After that, El walked towards the exit where the sound of chaos had been heard. Like, scream after scream, inhuman moans and the pungent smell of blood.

El's heartbeat was pounding as he approached the gym door. The doubts in his heart gradually increased. But, if El kept quiet, he wouldn't be able to complete the three missions of the Rencarnation Room."

If that happened, El would definitely be deleted for not completing any of his missions. Of course, El didn't want that to happen.

Arriving at the door, El peeked through the gap near the doorway. "What the hell!" El's eyes widened as he witnessed the chaos outside the gym.

Many Infected within the academy were walking around, some of them were eating humans dead or alive. El, watching all of this was terrified. "Damn, I'm not sure if I can complete all the missions!"

El shook his head quickly. "No, I can't give up now! I will definitely complete my mission!" El said with a look full of confidence.

Having made up his mind, El moved in a stealthy manner. His eyes scanned his surroundings, careful not to attract the attention of the Infected.

"The school bus should be in the parking lot. But, where is the parking lot? The manhua doesn't explain because the story focuses on Zhou Tian Cheng, the MC who regressed from the future right before this disaster happened."

While being aware of his surroundings, El was unconsciously lost in thought. El thought about where the parking lot was located because the second mission was to guard the bus. "Seriously, where is the parking lot?"

Suddenly, someone's hand touched him from behind. Realizing this, El immediately drew her Katana and pointed at the figure who touched his suddenly.

"N-no, don't don't kill me!"

"Uh, woman!" El was surprised to see a woman who was not an Infected. The woman had long brown hair with green irises. She was crying because of El's katana to her neck.

El's katana was right on her neck. A slight movement could easily slice her and kill her instantly. "Hiks, I'll do anything, don't kill me!"

El immediately lowered the katana and sighed. 'I thought it was an Infected, but it turned out to be human. Damn, I almost killed him.' El thought as he saw him sobbing, wiping away has tears.

"Oi, stop crying. I'm just surprised. You'll attract the attention of the infected. You'd better take me to the parking lot where the bus is." El said in a cold voice.

Not long after, the woman stopped shedding tears. But, she was still sobbing because she was almost killed by El and didn't understand what was happening to the world.

The girl's nodded. "Alright, I'll take you there. Because my destination happens to be there too." She replied while turning her back to El, showing the way to where the academy bus was.

El followed the woman from behind and also watched the surroundings. Making sure there were no infected attacking suddenly.

...

Ding!

[Kills 1 starting level 1 infected, +50]

On their journey to the bus parking lot, El often kills some infected to reduce the third and first mission. El had already killed 40 entry-level infected that he encountered on the way.

Meanwhile, the woman hid behind him. Sometimes on the way, the woman wondered in her mind. Why does El's left eye look different? But she didn't dare to ask directly.

"Ah, we're here!" the woman said happily.

Finally they arrived at the bus parking area. It was at the back gate of Chenjiang Academy. There were quite a few vehicles belonging to teachers and buses parked there.

There happened to be 5 late level 1 or adult infected. Their physical characteristics are not far from the early level 1 infected, except that their eyes are blood red. And there were also 20 early level 1 infected.

Adult level 1 infected have strong physical strength. So it is difficult for ordinary humans to fight them. But, their speed is still the same as the early level 1 infected. So it won't be too difficult for El who has Six Tomoe Rinnegan.

Looking at the 25 infected, the woman fell silent and trembled in fear. While El continued to watch the Infected, noticing a slight difference in 5 of them.

'Red eyes? Are level 1 infected half-grown? Why are there so many? Could it be because of the existence of me and Tian Cheng from the future?' El thought.

El suspected that the existence of herself and Tian Cheng had a butterfly effect that caused historical events to change. Sometimes it would be very good or very bad. Of course, this cannot be underestimated.
