21 Stage 3 Zombie (1/2)
”What's this Boss?” Lu An immediately asked after the notification rang in his head. He thought his Boss knew something about the mini-game.
”Just like its name, it's a mini-game with your life at stake!” Tang Shaoyang answered casually, it was as if the mini-game was not a threat to them. Indeed, Tang Shaoyang was confident they could easily survive the mini-game with his current level.
Of course, it was with a note that he faced the same thing with the thing he faced back then, his first mini-game.
His reply was not received well by Lu An when the words your life at stake entered his ears. His body shuddered voluntarily as the luxurious lobby turned into an eerie lobby in Lu An's eyes. He backed for a few steps and his back instantly hit the glasses entrance.
Lu An turned around and tried to get out, but the door won't budge even a little bit. Tang Shaoyang noticed his only subordinate panicked.
”It's okay, boy! Look at this!” He showed his intimidating battle-ax to Lu An and added, ”I got this from clearing my first mini-game. We might get you a fancy weapon like this if we can clear this mini-game! Don't worry, just stay close to me!”
Only then, Lu An calmed down. Even though he had faced many zombies yesterday, fear still engraved deep in him. He collected himself and got closer to Tang Shaoyang with a steel pipe in his left hand and a butcher knife in his right hand.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Just as he calmed down a bit, five continuous booming sounds resounded. Lu An jumped out in fear as he looked toward where the noise was coming from. Then, he saw five creatures that were similar to zombies just destroyed the counter.
They were similar but different, these five creatures crawling with all its four. With their grotesque visages and disgusting yellow liquid flowing down from their eyes, it was truly an unpleasant view.
Tang Shaoyang and Lu An gazed at the five creatures while the five creatures also looked at the two intruders. Of course, the duo not only just stared at the ugly creature, but they also activated their only skills, Basic Detection.

Two Level 15 Crawlers, two Level 20 Crawlers, and the last Crawler, Level 30.
”Oh, boy! It's not good! It's fucking five this time!” Tang Shaoyang blurted out. Moreover, the biggest one is Level 30 and there was another skill, Acid Spray.
He did not know what that skill was, but an additional skill meant more abilities for the crawler. What he concerned was Lu An, without talent and additional attribute from the talent, it would be hard for Lu An to even face one of it.
However, in an instant, a plan formulated in his mind. His instinct was telling him to kill the Level 30 Crawler first, then the rest would be easy for him.
Without even looking back, Heero gave out his order, ”Can you take one of the lowest levels amongst them? No, you have to at least take one of them by yourself! I will take care of the rest, get ready!”
Lu An was his subordinate and his safety of his responsibility as Boss. But it was different now, in such an occasion, as his subordinate, Lu An had to prove himself as a worthy subordinate.
It was indeed a pity if Lu An died here as they were already close. Nevertheless, he could not protect his subordinates forever.
Badump! Badump! Badump!
Lu An's heartbeat instantly accelerated as soon as the order arrived in his ears. It was a lie if he was not afraid of those creepy monsters, but he knew he could not run from his responsibility.
Surprisingly, despite a pang of nervousness he felt earlier, he did not complain or even blamed Tang Shaoyang. Sticking to Tang Shaoyang was not an ideal choice as he would only be a burden which could lead to their demise later.
Despite the nervousness, Lu An accepted his role with his chest straight up, ”Alright!” He said that in a firm tone which gained Tang Shaoyang's approval.
Pam! Pam! Pam! Pam!
Right after that, the crawler made their move. With all their fours, the five crawlers rushed toward Tang Shaoyang and Lu An.
Tang Shaoyang was pretty calm as this was not his first time facing the crawler. He pointed his hand to the right side and yelled Lu An, ”Get to the right, I will send one of them to your direction!”
After that, Tang Shaoyang charged over the five crawlers. As for Lu An, he heeded the order and moved to the right which had more space. He did not know how his Boss would send the crawler to him, but he trusted his Boss.
With Destroyer in his right hand, Tang Shaoyang charged fearlessly. The fastest one was the Level 20 Crawler, he clashed with it in a flash. Two long arms with horrifying claw were flogging toward his chest.
If the two arms reached his chest, without a doubt it would tear his open. Tang Shaoyang made an abrupt stop and jumped back right after that. The claw missed about five centimeters away from his chest.
”Heh, take this, creep!” In that instant, Heero swung his Destroyer horizontally. Remembering how tough the crawler's skin, he thought the crawler would be flung away.
However, instead of getting flung away, his battle-ax cut through the crawler's chest with a hitch.
