Chapter 153: I Take Back My Word (1/2)

Yapared to before. Well, their size and weight had gotten bigger, after all.

'It seems that I need to search for Max and Croco's food from now on. If I keep relying on the system store to buy food for them, I will become poor after a few days. Sigh! I can't even keep up with their food consumption.' Nile thought.

Why was there an endless supply of zombies from the novels he read before? Why is the world he was Isekai'ed to doesn't have this kind of privilege? Now, he even needs to search for them just to obtain points.

Sigh! Life is so hard on me.

He also noticed that the more the two ate and battled, the stronger they became. Unlike humans and zombies, the animals had a different approach to getting stronger, especially the herbivores type. They don't need to consume Apocalypse Virus; instead, they need the mutated parts of other animals or plants.

The more they eat, the more naturally they can evolve. However, it still depends on how well they could digest the mutated parts they have eaten.

The reason the two animals could evolve to Late-Stage after only being at the Middle Stage for a few days was because they just fought an 'intense' battle.

The consumed mutated part gets digested more quickly as the two animals fight. It's also the reason why Nile no longer bothered killing level one zombies and instead let the two fight and kill them. He was hoping that the constant fighting would allow them both to evolve to the next level earlier.

However, constant fighting also means more taxing for both, so he needs to feed them more to resupply their expended energy.

”Innards for Croc and Coconut/Orange? for Max. This is the last alright, Max? We need to search for alternative food for you. We need to save Apocalypse Points for rainy days.” He said as he handed the two animals their own food.

Maximo nodded his head regretfully. 'It seems that I need to say goodbye to my new favorite food for now, huh. Sniff! Goodbye for now, my friend.'

After the two were done eating, Nile proceeds towards the upper floor of the supermarket.

There's a red dot on the System Map, but Nile didn't find it on the lower floor after searching, so he guessed that it must be on the upper floor. ”I'm smart, yeh.”

'The red dot is bigger than usual, maybe it's a Level Two°? Finally.' Nile thought optimistically.

The next floor was the floor for movies and theaters.

Rotting dead bodies were lying everywhere on the floor. Not to mention the wriggling maggots, the floor even has some running liquids, probably the oil that came from the human bodies. If he doesn't have the mask, Nile would surely back out due to the stink alone.

He was surprised that Maximo and Croco don't seem to mind about the stink at all. It's as if it was pretty normal for them to smell such stenches.

He found it convenient because if the two also hated the stink, he might need to buy them a mask to wear.

'Hmm? Now that I think of it if ever I buy a mask for Croco, how does he wear it? Interesting.' Nile felt amused and even had the urge to buy a mask for Croco, just to see how a crocodile with a mask would look like.

Does their mask only cover their nose? Or their whole mouth? If that is the case, then the mask would be a pretty long one, right?
