Is it Wrong to Copy Abilities in Apocalypse?

In Delhi, there was rarely any greenery, much less forests. The number of forests in Delhi was something that could be counted on one hand, making each of them easy to remember.

One such forest was Pusa Hill Forest, a dense forest around the center of Delhi. This was the place where the current green zone was, spawning monsters from time to time. Everyone was running away from this place, knowing full well that in just a while, this area would be filled with high-ranking boss monsters.

The safe zone had just appeared, around 2 minutes ago, so for now, it was just pushing out the weak, low-ranked monsters for now, making it easier for people to outrun them, as that was the strategy humans were using.

Instead of going for the safe zone, the humans in this area had planned to run as far away from the green zone as they could, avoiding the beasts to the best of their abilities.

The number of humans dying did get lower by a lot the moment humans started doing this, as the beasts couldn\'t catch many of them, but people were still dying—the ones who were unfortunate enough to be very close to the zone.

The strategy was something like this: The humans would mostly stay close to Muzaffarnagar, the center of the area of the scenario, moving only when a zone had spawned, running as far away as they could from the zone, and when the hour was close to ending, they rush back toward the center.

Continuing that same process again and again was what the humans could do, trying their best to not get tangled with the beasts, but there was this one human who, instead of walking away from the zones, kept walking into them.

It was Alex, and right now he was rushing toward the safe zone, or more like danger zone, that had appeared in the Pusa Hill Forest. After resting and thinking for an hour, he decided to kill the beasts that popped out of the zone.

He had cleared many zones, but every one of them had a limited amount of beasts on them. After killing them, he would need to move to the next zone, searching for more beasts, but that was not how it was around the safe zone. .net

Around the safe zone, the beasts would never end; they would just keep pouring out one after another. Some weak, some strong, but for Alex, who was now a level 40 player, only the level 40 bosses and level 40 demonic beasts were a problem.

He had been chasing after safe zones for a while now, but for the past two hours, the zones appeared around the corner of the 300-kilometer-radius area. Just reaching those points took most of his time, making it impossible for him to even reach the area where the stronger beasts were resting.

Alex had been raring to fight against some strong beasts because right now he was feeling stronger than ever. That (C) that had appeared beside his stats was the one responsible for it; he knew that because the certain god was able to tell him that much before she was kicked out.

["That, my dear, is a classification of stats; it is supposed to be given to people according to their accomplishments later on, but now that you have it, you will feel your powers upgraded even without having your stats leveled up—"]

That was all she could tell him, but now he knew the reason for the sudden spike in his power.

His speed, which was supposed to be 440 kilometers/hour, had somehow elevated to 520 kilometers/hour, close to what one would have when they reach level 50. The same could be said for his other stats—all of them felt way more potent than they were supposed to be.

That was the reason why Alex was searching for stronger beasts, wanting to test how strong he had grown.

This time, he was sure that he would be able to reach the safe zone in time, as he could see on the map that he was just 4 minutes away from the location.

But getting closer to the zone also meant that...

"Grrraaaahhhh!!"

"Roar!!"

He would come across more beasts than before, and as it had been a while, the beasts that were erupting from the zone were also growing stronger now.

Alex, however, didn\'t even spare a glance for them, simply rushing forward, and those beasts, unable to keep up, just growled in frustration, but they kept following him, and in just a minute, Alex found himself surrounded by the beasts.

All stared at him with their eyes red in anger, enraged that a human would dare to crawl so deep into this area, not fearing their presence at all.

The beasts right now weren\'t in their right senses, or they would\'ve noticed from afar that Alex was out of their class. He was someone only their bosses could pose a challenge to.

They seemed to have been drugged, but they weren\'t; they were just a bit annoyed because they had been getting moved from one place to another without even knowing what was happening. And that was not entirely wrong, as they were, without their consent, teleported to who knows where, only to be pushed out into a new location.

The beasts didn\'t even remember where they were before they were spawned into a new area; all they remembered was that something like this had happened to them before as well.

This continued cycle kept repeating, enraging them to no end, making their blood boil, and that was why, right now, when they finally found an outlet to let out their anger on, they didn\'t want to let it go.

"GRAAAAA!!!!"

"ROOAARRRR!!"

"RAAAAAAA!!!"

"KRIEEEKRIEEEEKIREEEE!"

......

...

...

.

Different types of roars were heard, originating from beasts of different sizes and shapes, glaring at Alex, slowly moving forward, growling in anger. Alex, who was standing calmly amidst them, just stared back at them with an unbothered look, much to their frustration before he lifted his right leg.

*Crackle*

Yellow and white sparks crackled on his leg, causing the beast\'s furs and feathers to stand to their end, their senses screaming of danger, warning them of death.

"RAAAAAA!!!"

Which beast was it? Who roared? Who rushed toward Alex first? None of them knew it; all they knew was that they needed to kill Alex as soon as possible, or they would be the ones dying.

*Flap**Flap*...

*Bam**Bam*...

Wind blew and earth trembled as a hoard of beasts, from all sides, rushed toward Alex, intending to kill him, and the guy, still unbothered by it, moved his leg toward the ground, stomping with some strength in it.

*Crackle—Boom*

And the moment he did it, sparks flew. Time seemed to have paused as the beasts who were close to Alex saw how yellow and white sparks of electricity, the same as the ones covering Alex\'s leg, emerged from the ground like poisonous snakes, wrapping around their furry bodies, and the next thing they knew was nothing but darkness.

*Thud* Xn

Many beasts, with thunder still running over their furs and feathers, fell to the ground, their eyes blank as they died in a second, but the fight was far from over.

The number of beasts that died from Alex\'s last attack was less than 1/4th of the beasts, so the remaining beasts were still more than the total number of beasts anyone could find in the largest of the zones.

If any humans were to see the number of remaining beasts, they would\'ve just lost hope to win the fight, but unfortunately for the beasts they were facing was a monster who himself wasn\'t aware of his powers.
