Player Status

Faced with Kayden's question, Weiss decided to answer it since it wasn't a secret, "Only special event NPCs such as this old man have awareness of our existence as NPCs. For the rest of the NPCs, they will have the same awareness as the humans back in your world."

"Simply put, just think of this as what if a zombie apocalypse had occurred in your world but no one told you that it was just a death game. All basic NPCs will have that mindset unlike you and the rest of the players that think of this as a death game."

"But since they didn't know that this is a death game, those NPCs will even be more desperate than you players. You have to be wary of both players and NPCs. Otherwise, you won't live long in this world even with that special event item as it's not specialized for combat."

"You players have the advantage of obtaining special event items to use as a means of increasing the chances of survival in this zombie-apocalyptic world. However, NPCs aren't programmed to contact or even be aware of the existence of special event NPCs such as this old man."

After receiving the old janitor's answer, Kayden digested that information and pondered his next course of action.

After all, he had already obtained a year's worth of food and medicine.

'I could probably locate an underground base and live there for a year. I doubt that all of the players could survive even a year in this world.'

'However, I can't deny the possibility of zombies evolving over time. After all, the game announcement had specified that this was only the first wave of the zombie virus. If there are several waves after that, then the zombies might evolve and there will possibly be a zombie that can dig underground.'

'Furthermore, if the zombie virus can not only infect humans but also animals and plants, then it should be more difficult to create a permanent base than survive in this world. If those evolved zombies discovered an underground base, some zombie animals would have the capability of digging towards it.'

'There's also the possibility of humans evolving due to the exposure of zombie virus and that possibility might be true due to the stats grade shown in the player status screen.'

When Kayden contemplated that, he summoned the player status to check not only his current stats but also the number of surviving players.

The game had already informed him beforehand that the average stats of a human was F grade so Kayden wasn't worried too much about his stats. From what the game had informed him, the stats he had in the real world would be his starting stats in the game so not all players had equal stats.

On the other hand, a human who isn't infected with the zombie virus will have 100% humanity.

As for the virus stats, Kayden didn't know much about it since the game didn't give him any information about it.

But from his guess, it could mean the presence of the zombie virus within his body. Since it was at Null, then it could only mean that he wasn't infected by the zombie virus.

Taking a glance at his player status screen, Kayden noticed the change in his player status, "Previously, there wasn't any special event item category in the player status. It could mean that as long as the player encountered some special things in the game such as the special event item, it will be reflected and updated on their player status."

"From the game's evaluation, the space storage bracelet is a C-grade special event item. I don't know how good it is compared to other special event items but at least it isn't F-grade."

After checking his player status screen, Kayden decided to try his luck and asked the old janitor, "Old man, do the humans and zombies in this world evolve? Also, can the zombie virus infect animals and plants?"

Faced with Kayden's question, Weiss replied, "It's up to you to find out and explore more of this world."

"If I tell you everything, wouldn't the game become boring to play?"

Hearing that reply from the old janitor, Kayden sighed, "If this was only a mere game, I wouldn't care much. But this is a death game and if I die in this game, I will also die in real life."

"Anyway, thanks for the special event item, old man. I don't have much time to waste so I'll leave."

Knowing that he couldn't stay here anymore, Kayden left the school rooftop and he didn't forget to close the door to prevent any zombies from entering it.

Kayden knew that the old janitor didn't have any intentions of leaving the school rooftop so he no longer extended his offer of protecting the old man.

After Kayden left, Weiss sighed, "The goal of this old school janitor is already fulfilled and I can't give more space storage bracelets to other players. A special event NPC can only give one special event item."

"I'll take over the role of other NPCs. Instead of a special event NPC role, I'll just take the role of a normal NPC so I can experience the zombie world firsthand."
