Level up Zombie

Brandon was at a loss for words as he looked at the three in front of him, and there were several reasons for it. For one, the fact that they had been able to take out a Titan themselves. On the way here there was no sound of gunshots. Which meant they either had taken the thing out at an incredible speed, or they hadn\'t used weapons at all.

Judging by the blood on their clothes and the female\'s legs, it looked like it was the latter. Even for Brandon, who was a former swat team member, with several other trained men by his side had to use a number of weapons and coordinated focused attacks to take out such a thing.

Then, there was the fact that they all looked extremely young. University students just like Dave and the majority of his group, there was also a lone adult with him but he didn\'t look like much either. None of them looked like fighters, nor had the bodies of one, so just what had happened?

"It looks like you all came back." Zain said, as he motioned for Kun to hide the crystal that they had just extracted from the Titan. The two had yet to choose which one of them would use it, and Zain didn\'t have time to claim the Silver reward card yet either.

In all honesty, Zain wasn\'t expecting the others to come back... he thought they would have run from fear, and luckily Zain didn\'t have to use Cobra or Skittle either, otherwise them being there would be a problem. The new addition War had been sent away as well into one of the apartments nearby. This way they were all safe especially if another Stage 2 zombie appeared like last time as well.

"I guess you wanted your supplies right? Don\'t worry, I will still keep our side of the deal, you guys are free to take what supplies you wish."

Hearing this, Brandon was wondering what Zain was talking about, because he was unaware of the deal that had been made, or the situation the group were in beforehand. He had just rushed over here after hearing Dave\'s plea.

Dave gave a quick low down of what had occurred, and how they had come to meet Zain and his group. It was an interesting tale, and even more so now Brandon was interested in these guys.

"Thank you for looking after this group, we are in debt to you." Brandon said as he put out a hand for a shake.

Zain didn\'t hesitate and shook it firmly as well. The man seemed respectable and it was clear he was different from the others.

"Honestly, it\'s a shame that we live in a world where we have to send people out to gather supplies, but we are low on attack power, and most of the men at the base have to look after the rest. I was sent out just in case things would... happen, just like this.

"Honestly, I don\'t doubt that if you weren\'t there, that any of these would have survived such a thing. So thank you again."

"Hey, do you really think you should be saying that in front of us!" Dave joked as he complained.

Zain and his group went through the box of goods. They had mainly taken ammunition for their weapons but didn\'t take any of the other weapons. There was only so much that they could carry in the first place.

Honestly, there was no need for Zain and the others to take anything else from the care package, they had already gotten what they needed from the last one, but just so things didn\'t look suspicious, they took some food as well.

After that, it was time for the others to pack the rest of the things from the care package up. While doing so, Brandon kept taking glances at Zain.

\'I wonder... should we invite someone like that back with us. If everything that has happened is true, then these people could be very dangerous, but at the same time they saved Dave and the others. This could be the power that we need in our group.

\'If only I could contact Ryan and ask for his opinion.\'

While thinking this, Brandon saw that Pink was talking to her parents. He could hear the conversations between the two of them slightly.

"What\'s going on with them?" Brandon asked.

"Ah, it seems that they are related. What a coincidence to meet up in a place like this." Dave replied.

Now, Brandon had found his collateral if anything was to go wrong.

After gathering everything, Brandon walked up to Zain.

"I\'ll be honest, I would like for you three to come back with us. If there is anyone else in your group they can come back as well. Our group is doing well, we treat each other well, and we could really do with people like you. You have already helped us enough by leaving these weapons and much of the supplies with us, I can tell you have a good heart."

The words \'good heart\' rang in Zain\'s head, because he didn\'t think it was true at all. The whole time, he was just thinking how useful Brandon and his group could be to him in this situation. The problem was, if they were to join the group, then Skittle and the others would have to be kept outside nearby.

It wouldn\'t be too much of a problem, but was still something to think about, and of course there was always the worry of getting caught, about them finding out who they were.

"Before that, I want to ask, do you know anything about the Reborn Group?" Zain asked.

There was a pause while Brandon was thinking.

"The Reborn group, I can\'t say I have, but our leader Ryan is a well connected man. Enough to know someone like me. So maybe he knows something."

Thinking about it for a while, Zain currently had no leads, and he wanted to wait a little before attempting the higher reward quests as he believed they would be more difficult.

"Alright, our group will come along for now. We won\'t be joining but I would like to meet your leader before making a decision." Zain answered.

It was an expected reply, and Brandon nodded accepting the request.

[New Quest received]

[Spread the name of the \'Level Up Group\']

[Reward: Gold card]

\'Spread the name? How far and wide does it want me to spread the name of our group? Well, no better time than now to get started.\'

"Oh by the way, this is the whole group, this is all we have, and we are known as the Level Up Group." Zain said, which was random and seemed out of nowhere, but the smirk still managed to put a smile on Brandon\'s face.

"I think you and our leader will get along just fine."
