Chapter 9: 9. Police station: Big Zombie dogs
If Rina was going to be screaming like this every morning then Dexter needed some mufflers too.
The four individuals walked through the wet road, their feet making stepping sounds as they walked in silence.
Any zombie that comes close will be immediately frozen in ice or would be cut down by Leo or Zain.
Rina was quiet the whole time, which was unlike her. She would just glance at the handsome young man who carried a big bag on his back while looking around.
She remembered vividly the feeling of his strong hands gripping her shoulder this morning and she smiled while blushing lightly.
Dexter was in his own world as he imagined running up these tall, slightly destroyed buildings without falling.
"So guys. I understand the inconsistency of strong zombies today is not very convenient as we are supposed to recieve a good boon from defeating them." Zain said while adjusting the transparent glasses on his nose.
Dexter was surprised as he knew that the dude didn't go to school.
"What book were you reading?"
Zain grinned at Dexter's question.
"Advanced English for professionals."
Dexter smiled bitterly.
"Dude, the world has been turned upside down and you still read." Dexter felt that this guy took life lightly.
"So what if it's an apocalypse? I'll still fulfil my dream of being educated."
"And then what?" Dexter's question made everyone look at him before looking at Zain, curious to what he was going to say.
"Huh? I guess I'll survive and make sure children like me become educated too."
Zain's response made Dexter nod in approval.
"Nice."
After a few more hours of walking, slaying zombies, and listening to Zain speak with advanced words and Grammer they finally stopped.
"Look over there." Zain pointed to the small, blue building with a few bikes in front of it.
"A police station." Dexter said with a smile.
"Yup. There must be weapons there and the bikes are also good." Zain said with a nod.
Dexter suddenly furrowed his brows as he just said, "Guys, come over here."
He walked towards a big bin and hid behind.
Confused, the rest of the group walked to him but Leo was the last to come as he was suspicious of Dexter.
"What is it?" Zain asked.
"I hear growling sounds from within the station." Dexter said as he squinted his brows.
"Growls? But how–?" Before Zain could complete his sentence the doors of the police station flew open and a creature came out.
It was a horse sized dog with blue fur and red pupils and it sniffed the air as it barked loudly.
It then came out well and four more big dogs came out from behind it.
"Woah. There are five of them. Zombie dogs." Zain nodded. "But they should be above level 5 as they can see."
Dexter furrowed his brows as he gazed into the eyes of the dogs to see their black scelera and red pupils which moved as they glanced around.
"What do you think their level is?" Rina asked.
"Probably level 6 to level 9." Zain predicted, his serious face on as he removed the glasses and put in his pocket.
"So what's the plan?" Leo asked and all of them gathered around.
"So. Here's what we'll do. We don't know if the dogs have any special ability so I'll try to provoke one first."
"I'm currently level 4 but with my axe, I can take on a level 10." Zain said, making Dexter shocked.
"Seriously? A weapon made you able to defeat a level 10?" He was shocked.
"Yes. These are no ordinary weapons. They're called Heavenly totems and come in all forms of weapons and items." Leo explained.
Dexter looked away from the dude's cold eyes as he faked that there was something interesting on the floor.
'This guy's eyes are very uncomfortable.' Dexter thought with a tired sigh.
"Indeed. I'm very sure that we'll get a totem after this so you can have one of your own." Zain smiled to him.
The big guy was truly nice.
"Ok."
"Hm. So once we know what they can do I'll signal you guys to come along."
All of them nodded.
'Zain is really brilliant. His plan has a high chance for success. The only problem would be if the dogs will attack together.' Dexter thought.
"What if the dogs attack together?" He asked and Zain put a hand on his chin.
"We fight them head on." The big guy shrugged and brought his long axe from his back and walked away.
'This guy is really brilliant but with his mentality he's gonna get killed. The thought of running away didn't even cross his mind.' Dexter smiled bitterly.
Zain was wearing a thick black clothing that looked like leather. It was sleeveless and the the shiny material made Dexter doubt whether it was actually leather.
Zain stood a hundred metres away from the station, close to a building where he could hide behind as he waited.
Dexter looked up and saw that the sun was coming up and swallowed his saliva as he remembered that the sun was one of his weaknesses.
'Damn it, the sun is almost out. Where the hell are those damned dogs?' He was scared.
If it was really like he watched in the movies then he would burn to death. He couldn't think about it, it was a cruel fate.
Zain was already getting impatient and just waved his hands at them and shook his head.
"What?" Dexter didn't understand.
"This idiot. He said he's tired of waiting." Leo said in rage and all of them watched as Zain banged his axe on the concrete ground, making a loud netallic sound that even Dexter heard and closed his ears as it hurt.
At the moment a dog, looking like a wolf with blue fur and even sharper claws came out from within the station while growling, spit dropping from its jaws.
It barked loudly and other dogs came from behind it and showed their faces.
Zain put the axe on his shoulder as he smiled wildly.
The dogs all charged at Zain at the same time while the one in front was faster than others.
"Shit. Let's help him." Leo sprang out of the hiding spot and dashed towards the zombies and Rina followed
Dexter just looked at the sun which was already peeking at him from the clouds.
