God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse
Chapter 61 Clearing The Ground Floor-Slash!
The zombie fell down, lifeless as it should. I looked at that guy smiling at his achievement and I sighed…
'It took him 4 tries to kill a single zombie? I hope the others aren't the same as him,' I thought before sending that guy back and calling another one.
The next one took 2 tries before succeeding in killing a zombie, while the others weren't that different. A few of them took only one shot and succeeded in killing the zombies.
Total of 14 zombies were killed before I turned at them and asked,
"Want to kill more?"
There was a smile on my face and an excitement on their faces. Perhaps they started enjoying the thrill and the fact that I was there to protect them made their confidence boost a lot.
"Well… I don't mind helping you guys a bit more, but after this is over, there are a few things I need you guys to do for me. If you can help me out, maybe I can think about helping you guys absorb the Zombie Cores, too?" I spoke with a slightly mischievous look.
Hearing my words, their eyes started glistening as they looked at me with a bright smile before one of them spoke,"we will help you. What do you want us to do?"
'Naive,' I thought as I saw them accepting my demand without even listening to my conditions. Well, not that it matters much to me.
I simply nodded at them before, for the next 2 hours, helped them clear all the zombies on the ground floor. There were more in the reception area and a few more around the rooms on the other side.
After getting rid of all the zombies from the ground floor, we looked outside to find a couple of zombies roaming around as we had already barricaded the place from the inside temporarily.
And my gaze turned fixated on the notification I just received.

First, I checked on the new skill I received,
[Copy (Special)]
[Allows the user to copy any of the skill in his arsenal
Currently Copied Skill: None
Note: Once the user locks a particular skill to copy, he can't change the skill for another 24 hours]
'Oh Nice!' I thought as I wondered what skill I should use to copy… though first, I should check the new title.
[Title: Leader]

(3) The user can share any one of his skills with those under him with the effect of the skill halved. Only one Skill can be shared at a time. Max 2 people at once.]
"..." I looked at the skill with a bit of wide-eyed expression before I looked around and wondered the best way to use this ability.
"Michael?" Caroline called me out with a worried expression on her face and, turning at her, I asked,"Yeah?"
"You okay?" she asked again, and I nodded before speaking,"yeah. Just planning the next few moves."
"With this, we have more or less cleared the entire building. While we can barricade until here, I believe it would be better to clear the zombies outside, in the parking area and in the park at a distance before locking all the gates of the entire perimeter,"
I continued as I recalled that quest which required me to clear the respective areas.
"That's a nice idea," Caroline spoke with her eyes glistening as she looked at me before I heard a certain sound from the system.
[New Side Quests!]
I turned to Caroline and asked,"Can you call White and Alex here?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe was a bit confused, but still nodded as she looked at my serious expression. I didn't speak much as I looked at her, while the other people were just waiting for my instructions.
"You guys wait for a few minutes," I spoke before looking at the new side quests
[Electricity is the key to the function of daily life!]

[More is better!]
[Your base has too low man power. If you want your base to develop better and faster, having more people in it can never be a bad move.
Quest: Increase the number of people in your base to 100
Current number of people: 56
Reward: 3 random common Trinkets]
Observing the quests, I could guess that the side quests wanted me to build a base of my own and work on it. Though my initial goal of finding my family would be hindered so I don't know if I can do these quests right now or not.
'Maybe I will look into them later,' I thought as I looked at my system before sighing as I wondered what exactly I should do next.
It wasn't that I had nothing to do but quite the opposite. I had too many things to do…
There was that Lesser C-Grade Zombie of which I had zero plans on how to deal with him. Then there were zombies on the outside as well.
The problems of food and water, along with everyone's safety.
'Man, it's a pain dealing with everything by myself!' I sighed as I waited for Alex and White to come down for the next 20 minutes or so…
And when they arrived…
"There… is something… down there!!" Alex spoke in a shaky voice with sweat beads trickling down his face as he looked in the direction of the basement.
