As the zombie stepped into view, Damian saw it figure.. it was hulky in size ,its movement were slow each step shaking loose bits of decayed flesh, as he sized it, it stat appeared in his head,

He then proceeded to checking the status of the zombie Damian couldn't help but marvel ''what the heck is this creature'' first it slower than a normal walker but its strength is another thing on it own!!
The level 3 zombie turned it eye towards Damian, it movements even slower now , as if processing what had happened, it picked up a huge rock and fling it at a surprising speed towards him which immediately hit him at the chest which took a large chunk of his health
Damian was shocked Just that one attack had already halved his life, he was starting to panic it seemed what this zombie lacked in speed was made up with strength which is kind of frightening.
As he was still shocked of the huge hit point the zombie, he saw that it had already picked up another rock ready to throw again at him, without wasting time he dashed away from the sight of the huge creature and started running
circle around it ,
"Sure this zombie might be stronger than me but it way slower compared to my speed."
That's how the game of hit-and-run began, As i chipped away at the zombie health, little by little.
The level 3 zombie roared in frustration, its movement growing more erratic.
Damian grinned or something as close to a grin his rotten face could manage, he was getting under it skin of the zombie, figuratively speaking, and the more it lost control the more predictable it became.
But then it happened, he miscalculated stepping a second to late, the zombie claw slashed across his chest which took another chunk of his life
Now he was left with less than quarter of his health, even though his regeneration kicked in it was sluggish he couldn't afford to lose here, the level 3 zombie pressed on with it attack, lunging at him with both claws extended,
Damian fell backward, narrowly avoiding the attack and scrambled to his feet, his mind raced, he needed a plan. As his eyes darted around he found the jagged metal he dropped when he was attacked by the zombie the metal he had used against the level 2 zombie.Using the same method he used on the level 2 he tried goading the zombie.
The zombie lunged forward again simply to have lost all reasoning, as it draw close Damian sidestepped in the last second barely judging its again and plunged the metal right into skull.
Right after the metal pierces right through the skull you could see the brain matter and ooze sticking out, it was a terrible sight to behold.
"I guess it due to its low defense I was able to pierce the skull" Damian thought to himself Just as he let his guard down he felt a fatal danger right at my neck, which made him jump to the side hurriedly, that when he figured the zombie wasn't dead. yet even though his reaction was quick, he was still scrapped which took another chunk of my health bringing it down to a really dangerous level.
Now am left with around 9 HP left and the Zombie still has around quarter of it health

Right after he saw the status analysis he couldn't help but despair the difference in their health is too huge, "just a little scratch is enough to kill me." Damian thought to himself.
He kept on thinking of ways to kill this zombie, his mind kept on thinking of
ways to counter the zombie, then his thought drifted to his status

"Sh*t"…. Damian muttered himself "Am already hungry I need to end this quick." Then the game of hit and run began again, he realized this was the best way to take care of the zombie for now.
As the zombie final health bar dropped to zero, its lifeless body collapsed to the ground with a heavy thud.
He gasped for air, his body aching from the intense battle, but relief flooded through him, he had won, and it seems the worst part as come to an end. Then the familiar chime appeared....
