Due to the situation, now Ryan and the people on top of the stairs had met with their first group of zombies. They began to swing their weapons aiming for either their legs to topple them or their heads to finish them off in one hit.
The melee weapon practice they had been going through with Tod sure came in handy, and the fact that they were lined up at the top of the stairs helped as well. Because of this, no one really had time to focus on the situation below anymore, apart from Brandon.
The sound of growling came from the bottom side, and glancing for a second where the zombie was, he had put a bullet through its head as he continued to watch the others.
"Are they going to make it, or are we going to have to change our plans?" Brandon thought. It was then that he saw something unbelievable, something he never thought he would witness.
Out of all the newcomers, Kun had decided to charge in deeper into the zombies, and he was fearless doing so as he ran past them toward the location of Stu. While doing this as well Brandon noticed that for some reason, the other Zombies weren't heading toward him.
'How can he run in like that? Is he not scared of getting bitten. Now that I look at them, there all like that, there fearless. Not even Tod can completely act like that, yet these guys can. Is there something that they know that we don't?'
Regardless, Brandon had soon lost sight of where Kun had gone. All he could hope was that Stu would be dealt with, and they could deal with the rest of these guys. Instead, his view now had changed to the main attraction, Zain. He was going to witness first hand how he planned to take on the Titan of a Zombie.
Zain stood there, allowing the zombies to go right past him as he looked at the two titans. He had reached the bottom of the stairs, so they were now on level flooring again.
'I guess I don't have to worry too much about using guns this time.' Zain thought since constant bangs were going off in the area.
In terms of strength or agility, Zainhadn'tt improved much compared to the last time he had fought one of these things, and it was a close call. The only thing that had increased was his sword mastery and the strong allies he had gathered, but he coudln't use them in this situation.
"First, let's get both of your attention," Zain said as he lifted the handgun and shot out two bullets, both of them hitting the head of the Titans. After that, he ran forward toward one on his left that was closer.
It was already in the middle of lifting its large fist as it powers up, and Zain knew that it had a slight increase in speed as it threw out the punch giving it a devastating blow. When in range, the Titan threw down its large fist. Zain spun himself, and his sword had hit the large fist, pushing it to the side lightly and causing him to dodge.
The fist slammed into a zombie instead crushing its bones as it hit the ground and caused a large crack and imprint to be left behind. Along with guts and blood of the dead.
"Still just as storng as alwasy but there are some chinks in your armour!" Zain stated as he went ahead and stabbed right between the elbow joint of the Titan. On its body the thick black substance was almost like armour.
And like any armour not the entirety of the body could be covered and this was what Zain was aiming for, the only thing was, although his attack was a success and the sword had stabbed through, the muscles were strong as well.
Zain wanted to slice the joint, breaking it, causing one of its arms to no longer be in action, but that didn't happen at all. Instead the Titan had tensed up its muscles and lifted its arm up in the air, when doing so it had lifted Zain up with it.
Now in the air, Zain was prime ready to be a punching bag. The other fist of the Titan was ready to throw, and just then Zain swung his body forward, pulling the sword out and landing on the Titan's chest, letting go of his gun and allowing it to drop to the floor as he clinged onto the Titan's neck.
"AHRMM!" the Titan shouted and screamed right next to Zain's ear. Spinning around kicking off the Titan's arm, Zain had changed position, so he was now behind it. With the sword in his hand, just like before, he looked at the opening on the Titan's back plate.
The sword was lifted into the air and constantly was being stabbed into it again and again.
'I just have to remember to jump off. Before it falls on its back like last time, these things seem to all act in the same way.'
Just as Zain thought about this though, he noticed something else. He needed to act fast and using the neck, he swung his legs. Zain changed his position back to the front of the Titan, now he's head was directly in front of the other and decided to let go dropping him back to the ground.
Moments later, a large bang was heard, and the Titan stumbled right in front of Zain. Rolling underneath its arms, he was able to avoid it falling on him, and it was a good thing he did because it had collapsed a second later, and now he could see what had occurred.
Because standing over the fallen Titan. It was another Titan. Just before Zain was about to jump off, he could see the Titan was winding up a punch, ready to throw one at him. This was never in his original plan, he wanted to take them out one at a time, but it seemed like the large zombies had a small brain or at least a low level of intelligence.
When looking at the Titan that was now on the ground, the back plate, the hard amrou was cracked, it was completely broken. It slowly started to come up off the ground, and the black hardened pieces fell.
"Well, it looks like there is an easy way to get rid of both of you," Zain stated.
Running forward, Zain picked up his gun and started to fire at one of the Titans to get its attention, just like he did before. Their movements were slow, so he could round them in a way, so they were getting closer and closer to each other.
Then finally, when they were at the right distance, Zain would just have to fire a bullet at each of them to get their attention. The timing was perfect. Both of them had disregard for the space around them. They were unaware of what was happening as they threw a fist right at each other both clashing and breaking away their heavy armour.
All Zain had to do now was play it safe and repeat this a few times, and eventually, both of the Titans had fallen. He had managed to trick one of them into hitting the other's head, killing it on the spot, then with the Titan with its back open, Zain could do what he did before, giving him an angle to shoot the Titan's brain from inside the zombie itself.

At first Zain was going to help Kun find Stu. Get rid of him so he could complete the quest and get the golden reward, but now seeing this message another thought came into his head.
Looking around he could see quite a few mutated zombies in the crowd of zombies.
'If I only targeted the mutated zombies, or another Titan appeared I could use this situation to my advantage, and continue to level up.'
It was then that Zain lifted his gun and shot a bullet through two of the mutated zombies; he had missed a shot but ended up killing two of them still.

'Maybe it won't be so bad if this thing went on for a little longer. I'll leave it to Kun just like he said, for me, it's time for me to farm.' Zain inwardly smiled as he went deeper into the group of zombies not killing any of the regulars and allowing more of them to get through and up onto the staircase.
