The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 866 - 866: Savage Battle (4)

Lily was in the process of beheading a Tier 10 zombie when three more appeared. The two peak Tier 10 zombies each wielded a long bone spear, while the Tier 11 zombie held a short sword and a shield.

They were a strange kind of zombie. Bones stuck out of their bodies, and even the hand that held the spear or the sword had no flesh on it.

They looked bony and, well, terrifying.

However, just like any warrior who awakened their class, these zombies were well-equipped, and Lily, who knew what was about to happen, smirked.

“I guess the heavens favor even the zombies, giving them weapons to their likeness.” A smile appeared on her face as her red wind element began to surge.

Since Lily was a swordswoman and possessed the wind element, her speed was naturally superior.

However, her wind was not only for speed; its attack power was already at a level that could rival most attacks from a peak Ascendant, like the two Tier 10 zombies around her.

But one thing was certain: with the wind in Lily’s hands, she became a menace.

I mean, she wasn’t known as the Red Fury back in the day for no reason. She certainly didn’t earn that name without feats to back it up.

Someone who sent a paragon running for years isn’t simple—even if she is now a mere level 2 Ascendant.

Of course, the three zombies surrounding her weren’t easy targets either, but Lily knew she had to do her part, and that was to kill the zombies.

The wind around her whipped into a frenzy, picking up speed like a storm. Lily’s body blurred as her speed increased, her silhouette barely visible to the naked eye.

Of course, the Tier 11 zombie could pick up her figure, but the Tier 10 zombies weren’t that lucky. Lily was simply too fast for their eyes to perceive.

The two peak Tier 10 zombies tried to position themselves, attempting to form a wall of spears around her.

But Lily was faster.

She darted to the left, her sword flashing in a wide arc, severing the first zombie’s spear in a single, fluid motion. It was a quick strike, but lethal enough to slice through the spear.

The Tier 10 zombie staggered back, bearing the force from Lily’s one quick strike… Lily closed in on it after she weaved through a jab from the Tier 11 zombie.

Before the Tier 10 zombie could react, Lily’s sword followed through with a vicious upward strike, slicing through its exposed ribcage and sending the zombie crashing to the ground, creating a small crater.

“It’s funny how zombies can be this annoying… not that I care… I can already sense my level rising from the kills,” Lily smirked and then evaded yet another stabbing strike from the Tier 11 zombie.

“Seriously, were you one of those freaks that only know how to stab before you became a zombie?” Lily had already evaded three stabbing strikes from the Tier 11 zombie, and yet again, she had to dodge its attack.

‘Looks like that’s all he can do… But I better not be stabbed with that sword—the power contained in it is enough to kill me or seriously injure me.’

The second peak Tier 10 zombie lunged forward, aiming its spear at Lily’s heart. But she was already gone, her body a blur as she danced through the wind.

However, the remaining Tier 10 zombie seemed to have taken offense at Lily for killing its companion. Before it could ground itself in the air, the zombie was upon her again, stabbing its spear forward.

The tip of the spear missed by inches.

However, Lily didn’t waste that chance. Her sword moved in a horizontal slash, carving through the zombie’s torso with terrifying precision.

The creature staggered back, its body cleaving in two as the wind in Lily’s wake intensified, driving the sharpness of her strike even deeper.

The wind formed into sharp crescent arcs and surged forward, cutting the zombie into countless pieces.

The second Tier 10 Zombie also succumbed to Lily’s quick attack. But she still had one more to kill, and also be on the lookout for more incoming.

She moved just in time to evade yet another stabbing attack from the Tier 11 zombie.

Lily used the momentum from the Tier 11 zombie’s missed strike to land her own attack. She kicked forward, aiming for the zombie’s bony side.

However, she quickly abandoned her attack and slashed her sword forward, cutting through a metallic arrow aimed at her head.

Far from her, she saw three more arrows coming from a Tier 11 zombie. She quickly harnessed her wind element, forming a shield of red wind around her.

She could evade those arrows and perhaps even continue to land a kick on the Tier 11 zombie as she intended, but now, she had to defend against the three arrows and then evade the sword stab from the Tier 11 bone zombie.

Yet after that, she had to stab her own sword forward to meet a powerful fist from another Tier 11 zombie.

“Fuck…”

Lily cursed, feeling her body thrown backward.

“What the hell… how am I fighting three zombies… and even one is a Tier 11?” Lily sighed deeply, jumping to the side and gliding through the air as she evaded one strike after another.

The three Tier 11 zombies all looked different now. First, it had been the Bone Zombies… but she had already killed two, which were the two Tier 10s quite easily, in fact.

However, now, she was surrounded by a red zombie. The aura of blood oozing from its body showed it had killed quite a lot. The blood on its hand was enough to shape it into a terrifying zombie worthy of facing in battle.

It wielded a bow.

The third one, who used its fists, was a rather huge zombie by all standards. It stood 3 meters tall, its fists covered in a metallic carapace. The veins running across its body were red, and its skin itself was pure white.

Lily had faced this kind of zombie before. It was the day she met Klaus, Anna, and the others in the Everlasting Zombie Forest…

Back then, she fought a much weaker version of this kind of zombie…

Now, she was facing the same kind of zombie but with a twist. This one was a Level 7 Tier 11 zombie. The odds weren’t just stacked against her… they seemed towering and deadly in all regards.

Lily looked at her three opponents, and a smile appeared on her lips, quickly covered by a red mask. Suddenly, a powerful wind energy burst out from her body, creating red wind blades—hundreds of them.

“Come at me, you scums.”

One thing to note: the ‘Red Fury’ wasn’t known only for her prowess on the battlefield, she was also known for her profane words… Now, it seemed Lily had inherited her personality.

… more like her mouth.
