Ye Yingyue didn't mind Lin Qiao's language as she smilingly shook her head and said, "No, Miss. Lu! You may not know, but one of our chairmen is a zombie. If it weren't for her, our base would never have been built up. We have a lot of zombies in our base. They used to be patients. They… all had mental problems before. But, after turning into zombies, they had much clearer minds."
"As same as your base, we don't have many humans in our base." At that time, Lei Cheng, who was staying silent the whole time, joined the conversation.
Lin Qiao understood what he meant. Green Mountain Base had a lot of zombies, but only a small population of humans. The human beings weren't able to survive on their own. They were far away from the other bases, and the natural environment was awful. It was impossible for them to escape from that place and seek help from other bases.
They had no choice but to work with zombies to survive.
With a faint smile, Lin Qiao said, "Your drug is very good, but in fact, we don't need it here. We have our own way of keeping zombies away from us."
Leng Xuantong made a large amount of disguising drug with a small amount of Lin Qiao's blood, which was able to cover the scents of humans. Not to mention the ordinary zombies, even the zombies above level-six wouldn't approach a person who was wearing the disguising drug.
With their drug, Green Mountain Base people would be able to make great deals with any other base. However, their drug wasn't so useful for Lin Qiao.
Both Ye Yingyue and Lei Cheng looked stunned, their eyes showing confusion.
They didn't expect to hear that All Beings Base had actually developed their own drug to keep zombies away. They were so confident, but they now felt as if they were slapped right on the face. They two of them couldn't react within a short time.
If All Being Base wasn't interested in the drug, the deal wouldn't be made.
Seeing the look on their faces, Lin Qiao smiled and said, "Even though I'm not interested in your drug, I can still fix the faces of a small part of your zombies. So, your base will owe me a big favor. When I need help in the future, you have to help me once."
Hearing that, both Ye Yingyue and Lei Cheng had their eyes glowing immediately. That terms might put their base into a disadvantage, yet they still couldn't say no.
The two of them made eye-contact, then Lei Cheng did the talking. "We need to talk to our leaders about this. Miss. Lu, will you be keeping your word?"
Lin Qiao kept the smile on her face as she said, "I'm a base leader after all! The awful things such as swallowing my own words… I can't do them. It's alright! You can take all the time you need to discuss it with your people. If you find my offer okay, just bring the zombies whose faces need to be fixed here, because the treatment can only take place in our base, and it will take some time."
"No problem!" Ye Yingyue and Lei Cheng nodded delightfully.
Soon, Green Mountain Base people left, and Lin Qiao's pace finally quieted down.
No, that actually did not happen.
Lin Qiao speechlessly glanced at the two men who were staring at each other in her office, then turned back to the files on her desk and said, "Are you two practicing how to stare at people? If you have something to say, just say it. If you have nothing to say, the door is over there." 
Lin Hao looked straight into Wu Chengyue's expressionless eyes and said, "I'm here to observe Chief's body condition. I'm a doctor, and this is my duty. Chief Wu, why are you staying in my Chief's office and bothering her all the time?"
His words showed an obvious hostility toward Wu Chengyue.
Wu Chengyue did not have his standard smile at that moment. He said with an expressionless face, "I surely have something serious to say to your Chief. That has nothing to do with any doctor. Doctor Lin, you have seen and observed her. Miss. Lu seems to be fine. I think you can leave now. See you!"
Lin Hao didn't know how to respond at first. However, he didn't plan to give up just like that. He gave a cold smile and said, "I can't leave. My Chief needs to be observed closely. I'll surely stay by her side to make sure that no accidents can happen."
"Doctor Lin, I noticed that you were busy in the medical department," said Wu Chengyue, "Are you going to leave your work there? That's not good, is it?" 
"Thank you! I don't need the leader of another base telling me how to do my job. Staying with my Chief to observe her body condition is also my job." Lin Hao leaned against the back of the couch and folded his arms before his chest. With a proud smile, he looked at Wu Chengyue in the eyes as he slightly raised his chin in a provoking way.
Wu Chengyue raised his eyebrows and prepared to say something. However, Lin Qiao didn't let him.
"Alright, you two! I can't even do my work. Get out!" Lin Qiao joined the conversation with a cold voice. She couldn't even bear watching how childishly the two men were acting at that moment!
"I'll leave if he leaves!" Lin Hao glanced at Wu Chengyue and said. He was a little unhappy as his sister had asked him to leave.
Wu Chengyue's expressionless face now wore a smile. "I'm here for something serious! Chief Lu, it's getting warm, and our zombie hunters have started to leave the base. We need to divide our hunting fields, right?" 
Lin Hao found Wu Chengyue's smile extremely annoying! However, that was indeed a serious affair, and he really could not get into it. He snorted coldly, then stood up and left with a sour face.
If Wu Chengyue hadn't been following his sister everywhere, he would not come here to argue with him!
As Lin Hao left with anger, Wu Chengyue smiled a bigger smile. Clearly, he was getting a little complacent.
Lin Qiao rolled her eyes and said blandly, "Do you need to handle that yourself? Talk to Lin Feng about it. It's not my job now."
Wu Chengyue looked at her and said with a grin, "You're the chief, aren't you? Why are you letting your subordinates do that kind of work? Aren't you afraid that they might fail the job?"
'He is my subordinate indeed, but he is also my big brother. I know how capable my big brother is, much better than you do!' Lin Qiao said in her head while keeping that bland look and responding, "I believe in his capabilities. It's not a big deal."
"Do you really not want to see me so much?" A wounded look escaped Wu Chengyue's eyes. He soon hid it away though, yet the smile on his face turned a little bitter.
Nevertheless, he got rid of the bitterness quickly. Then, his smile turned cold, eyes glowing dimly as he continued, "Or, do you prefer to be with Doctor Lin?" he said with a frosty voice.


Lin Qiao remembers nothing from the past five years since the post-apocalyptic era began. She wakes up only to find herself having become a newborn, superpowered zombie, in a body that used to belong to an evil and notorious woman!

Having kidnapped a girl and raped her father, the previous host met her demise at the very hands of the conspiracies she courted all her life, leaving Lin Qiao no choice but to deal with the consequences while trying to figure out her own past and the fate of her loved ones. 

As for the little girl’s father, can’t he just have a decent fight? He’s a human being, but why is he biting a zombie? She’s the zombie! She’s the one who’s supposed to bite! 

David had been preparing for the apocalypse and had saved up quite a bit of food and water and had gained very basic knowledge about producing things  like soap and basic plumbing

And then I call up the system store

___________System__Store_______________

Bloodlines: 1000 coins

Weapons: 1000 coins

________________________________________

So how do I earn coins?

  - you kill zombies or humans -

"And how many points do I get for killing a zombie/human" 

  - it depends on their combat strength - 

  - a regular civilian would only give around 1 coin while a veteran soldier that could take on ten men may count as  10 coins most zombies will be worth 2 coins however they can evolve if they eat enough humans/zombies -

"Then wouldn't they just eat each other??"

- They ignore each other until a certain level and will only coaperate when getting over obstacles -

  - they eventually gain the smarts of a regular human when fully evolved -

Alright now system do I have an inventory?

  - yes just say inventory -

"Inventory" I say

After it opens it seems to be a black hole it can hold infinite items as long as their not alive ( zombies count as alive ) and suspends the item as the exact same way it was stored

So I throw my month worth of food and water in the inventory and decide to leave the Apartment

Looking outside I don't see anything 

No people no zombies it's desolate I almost have the urge to tell out to any people however I know that would get me killed

Wandering around I didn't find much however I knew there were people in the buildings I just didn't know whether they were humans or zombies

I was ever vigilant making sure to look for any zombies and strained my ears for any noise 

And after hours of wandering  I heard something

*BANG*

someone or something had shot a gun and it was near by david decided to check it out

_________________________________________

Pov: Summer Daniels

Today was like any normal day everything was fine 

I went to work at the military base and stood on guard duty

Everything was normal untill 12:00

Everything seemed fine a scientist had been planning to go on vacation and was leaving today he wanted to get some last minute work in before leaving  with her family 

However when she went inside for testing the new chemical that had been found something happened and the virus dropped to the ground 

After being exposed to the virus she was quarantined 

Summer was charged with guarding this scientist however nothing happened even after quarantined for hours

The virus was highly volatile 

And unpredictable 

She seemed fine and was extremely adamant about getting out 

So summer decided to let her out she knew that the scientist had worked extremely hard to get the vacation

So she helped her get out

summer regretted that for as long as she lived 

Just 1 hour after she got out she infected hundreds after all she had an extremely infectious virus all over her and soon she got on a plane with her family and flew away
_________________________________________

*One hour after the plane had taken off*

Summer had finally gotten off work she did the morning shift mainly so she was still super tired however she noticed people starting to act off scratch at their skin and.... eating it.... She almost threw up 

Trembling she looked at the people doing this and noticed it was almost everyone

She had changed earlier however she always kept her gun on her for protection 

she felt it would be needed soon

David was you ordanary man 9 to 5 job in the office he wasn't very good at his job and often became extremely tired after work to the point where he'll sleep walk home 

this eventually got him killed ...

however he had a second chance at life and he planned to have fun!

  The night it is about to come. And these survivors have concluded to remain in this part of the city, but remain hidden into a secure part of the building. These survivors could try and drive into the night, but like they have experienced one time, it was a disaster and they lost two people to the zombies and even the jumpers ( the ones who are jumping around the city, scaring survivors and pinning the survivors down ).
  After they entered a building, they do found a good, shelter, on the next floor, which is the attic, and that part doesn't contain a window. And not having a window in a house is not good, but when we talk about the apocalypse, this is an extraordinary and great situation, since there are zombies like climbers. They also take from the living room that couch which is in a good shape, and two mattresses to help them sleep well. Mike has also taken five pillows, and Ronald has found three covers for them.
  They are now choosing which one are they going to sleep, so Mike has taken the mattress and those two guys were arguing which one should sleep on the couch. Ronald wanted to sleep since he did a lot of work today, but Gerald also did a lot of work, he even shoot a few zombies, which means that he protected them. Mike said to those two guys who were arguing for almost a minute.
  "Why don't you two are playing Rock, Paper, and Scissors for the couch?"
  "You want to play it, old man?" asks Ronald at Gerald.
  "Why not, rascal?" he replied to Ronald.
  These two survivors are playing, Rock, Paper and Scissors for the place where they are going to sleep. But, after one single round, where Ronald use Paper, and Gerald has used Rock. Rock wins, and Gerald got to sleep on the couch, which is pretty comfortable for Gerald. Ronald told him to "Shut up and sleep!".
  These three survivors were about to sleep, but then, Mike has decided to remain awake for a while, cause you could be killed at any moment in the building while you are sleeping. This is a weird situation for them since, in that building where they used to stay, they were much safer cause of the rooms they were sleeping in. For example, the room Mike acquired, had a huge drawer that blocked the main door, and Mike could enter that room, only using the stairs which are mostly used when a fire has struck the building.
  While Mike it is awake, he is just staying still on the mattress and he got a pistol prepared for any emergencies. While he was awake, he remembered an important detail about these zombies when he used to stay in that building together with the other three survivors.
***
  On the second floor, all of those nineteen remained survivors at the building, are looking down, at an entire horde of zombies who have blocked the main road, and their only way out of this dammed building. Those nineteen survivors who have gathered at the front of that window were mesmerized, shocked and mad at how their situation is going. Low food supplies and low ammunition. 

  "There are a lot of zombies down there." says one survivor who is ginger and wears ripped clothes.
  "What are we going to do?" asks one of the girls to that survivor, and she is looking around to see if anyone had any idea, but no one replies, and she screamed. "WE ARE GOING TO DIE!"
  "De Fuq?" asks one of the survivors after she saw that girl reaction.
  "I cannot die right now. I am a celebrity in TikTok, and I have money to withdraw."
  "Can someone kill this, bitch?" says someone in the crowd, but thankfully, that autistic kid was still screaming for someone to help her and he'll them how important she is then that man from the third floor who has both legs cut.
  Gerald was going closer to the window, he looked at that area filled with zombies, and he is wondering how they could kill all of those zombies. He had an idea, but it is quite risky. He could try and use all of those corpses from the building who are completely dead and cannot be reanimated if you even try to let a zombie bite that corpse. Thankfully, when he said his idea to some survivors, a few of them agreed, and others were unsure since that man was closed by himself in a room for a long time with a dead body.
  Out of nineteen survivors, only ten agreed to do that, the rest were just going into their room and protecting themselves, if this plan will fail. Their idea is to use all of those corpses and throw them outside, while a large number of zombies were enjoying eating a corpse, they will leave the building, run it to a store, took everything they could carry and run back into the hideout. The good part, there were almost fifty corpses, but the bad news, those weren't attracted many zombies since some of them do not even eat the corpses who were once zombies. 
  Gerald idea wasn't going to work, and people didn't blame him for at least trying. That dude was even throwing his dead wife into that crowd, and he cried while he was doing that since this was the only woman in his life who completely understand him.
  They were thinking about other ideas on how they could escape this building and run for supply, but thankfully, there was a chopper who was passing by their building. These survivors are quickly running to the roof to get his attention to stop and take them from this Hell hole. But, when they arrive on the roof, the chopper has dropped two crates of food supply, ammo, weapons and new clothes. And into that box, there was a letter. Mike grabbed that letter and read latter in a loud voice. "We are coming back to take you and bring you into a new home, but before that, try and survive as long as you can. Our military will try to clean the entire country. Signed by, Z.A.F.!"
  "Whos Z.A.F.?" asked one of the survivors.
  "No idea. It isn't written here." says Mike to that survivor who is coming at him, he takes that latter, look at it and he gave back to him, and address it to everyone. "For now, we have to wait, right?"
  "Most likely." says a large crowd.
  Ronald, Mike and Gerald are agreeing to stay put and wait for the help to come. But unfortunately, the help hasn't come at a good time, when the evolution viruses have struck the world and transformed the zombies into much more deadly predators than they were two days ago.

It is the year 20XX and something bad happened to Earth and humanity, but much worse to humanity to be precise. The thing it has happened, it is known as a zombie apocalypse by the modern generation. 
It presents the stories of a few groups of survivors across the world who are either going to stay among undeads, zombies, climbers, swimmers, vomitrons, flamers and tons of other types of zombies, or try their luck to run on inhibited islands with or without military help and live safely until everything comes down. Eventually.

Scheduled Chapters: 1 - 3 per. Weekend

  Hazel has been staying at Lix's base for a few days already. Lix wanted Hazel to help scavenge for food, since they couldn't find any. Hazel was a bit dumb so she didn't notice, until Lix pointed it out to her.

  They were staying in an old church a few minutes away from her house. The people there were Mary, Su, Luther, Konnie, Devin, Winny (boy), Calvin, Luis, Jonathan, Pat, Pam and Lix.

  Mary, Su, Devin, Konnie, Winny, Calvin, Pat, and Jonathan didn't have any powers, so they were in charge of home work like laundry,cleaning, etc. While Luther, Luis, Pam, and Lix were the team in charge of getting food.

  Hazel was enthusiastically welcomed into the small community, and Hzel tried with all her might to bring food home. One day, Hazel was getting ready to scavange.

  "Oh? Hazel sweetie, can you bring in the clothes outside? Sorry to trouble you, but I need to do some cooking." A middle aged woman with black hair appeared. Mary was a kind woman with Su her daughter, they managed to escape and met Lix along the way.

  "Ah, sure Mrs. Mary. And it's no trouble really." Hazel scratched her head.

  "Sigh, way too naive.." Mary shook her head. She already thought of this, but this Ru girl was way too naive! There's 7 people (not including her) who could help with the clothes! And she didn't even think I was asking her just to tick her off...

  "No Ru, just forget it. You wouldn't understand anyways." Mary smiled and dusted herself off. Hazel tried at first to gain style points, but it didn't really work. Plus the small community was so warm, it made Hazel let go of her act a lot.

  Lix was surprised that Ru, who was always so aloof. Had a really nice personality. Pretty soon, he treated Ru just like his team members. No one had any complaints too, since Ru was strong and nice.

"Hmm..well then, bye!" Hazel waved to Mary, as she went out to scavenge. Her daily mission right now was to "Help Gather Food: 0/5". Hazel skipped along the way and killed a few zombies.

  "Hey system?"

  "Yes?"

  "How was the system made?" Hazel was curious on how something like the system came to be.

  "Well, Someone called hm...Creator 1. He created the main system to do small tasks for him. Then, the main system created us little systems. Then once we're done training, we are sent to do tasks that Creator 1 assigned us."

  "Ah...who is this Creator 1 person?" Hazel thought he was some kind of being like a god, if he was able to create something like the system.

  "..You can call him...like a high level craftsman."

  "...So he's just a builder?"

  "Well he's the only builder."

    "Okay...Anyways, how many more zombies till I level up?"

  "About 10-15ish left."

  "Hmm.." Hazel picked up some random food items, and completed her mission.

  "Ding! You have completed Gather Food Items: 5/5! Reward: 20 exp points, String art technique."

  "Huh? String art technique?" Hazel was pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect that a normal mission would give her something.

  "Would you want information?"

  "Of course."

  "Data: The string art technique, other name is Web technique. Is an ancient technique used to trap animals, humans, and other living beings. Once the technique is proficient enough, it will be able to use in close and long combat." The system read the words that came with the skill.

  "Hmm..I guess this can help cover up the distances the whip can't reach...the traps though...sounds interesting.." Hazel rubbed her chin. She adjusted her googles, and clicked the option to learn the skill.

  "You have learned String Art Technique (unique)!"

  "Stats."

  Quote: As strong as an average man who had been working out.

  "Hmm.. I didn't level up in a long time...let's level up first." Hazel thought. She roamed the streets. She killed many zombies, until she got the notification.

  "You have leveled up."

  "Stats."

  Hazel Usof
  Age: 17
  Level 5

  Str: 12
  Sta: 13
  Agi: 17
  Int: 15
  Def: 10

  Skills: Detect (weak), String Art

  Quote: Able to defend yourself and maybe one more person depending on the situation.

  "..System, can you check Vu's stats?" Hazel asked.

  "No."

  "Hmm.." Hazel just would have been happy about the level up, but she now had people to protect. She just can't save one, she has to save the rest.

  "Mutants give more exp right?"

  "Yes."

  "Can you detect mutants?"

  "I could, but I would recommend upgrading your detect skill."

  "Eh, i'll do it later." Hazel shrugged and continued killing some zombies. As she was fighting with some pesky zombies, a small hoard of about 7 zombies came. Hazel's eye darkened. She could risk it and fight the zombies for exp, or just escape.

  Hazel thought about it more and compromised to herself. She killed a couple more zombies, before running away. Now, Hazel wanted to try something. She found a small group and laid simple spider like traps in front of her.

  "Hey! Yoho!" Hazel shouted. The zombies turned and started running towards her. She got her sword ready just in case the traps didn't work. The zombies stepped on the trap, and their legs were pierced through by the sharp web trap.

  When Hazel created the traps, the string just appeared as she felt a little weak. She assumed making string pop out of nowhere, consumed her energy. Her eyes lit up when she saw that the zombie couldn't move, but was still alive. Perfect for trapping people...

  Hazel raised her hands and did a small pattern on her hands. As she was finishing, the string shot out and pierced the zombies head. Hazel was stunned for a moment.

  "Woho oh!" Thought Hazel, as she looked at her hands. "That's pretty sick! I could earn tons of style points using this!" She grew excited. She spent the next few hours practicing her skills on other zombies, and soon she was confident that she could use it in a fight.

  As if the world heard her, 3 mutants spotted her.

  "Haha..I feel like this is staged..." Hazel looked at the system with her mind.

  "..You're imagining it." The system replied.

  "Sure..." Hazel got ready to fight.

*Club*
Zhang Wei was still in the club then he heard that nobody is banging at the door again, but the fear still got him. He couldn't move closer to the door to see maybe the zombies are not there anymore. He don't know what else to do then he started crying and removed all the chain he had on his neck and the rings on his finger he removed everything.
"I want to live a normal life please God help me, I don't want all the money again just save me please" He said with a pitiful expression on he's face.

**************
Michael kept on driving, there were thousands of zombies following his car because he was playing music. Michael drive out of China East and drive to China north  those zombies kept following him and those zombies were biting people anyhow.
He was just looking at them by the side mirror of his car he's not even bothered he kept on driving, he speed off when those zombies where running faster. Michael drove to China South, he ran out of fuel when he got to fuel station he parked, and get fuel. To his surprise people were walking freely no signs of zombie. 
He felt so amazed that people are moving freely, is it that people don't have TV in their house to watch news that zombies are around everywhere and people stay outside?
He stopped the man that was passing beside him and said
"Hey nigga, don't you know have TV at home or you don't listen to news? zombies are everywhere man! get ass inside your house and stop walking around."
The man look at Michael and snubbed him because he looks so dirty and he had no shirt on.
"Ooh nigga, okay zombies are in the world they are coming for you guys! they are going to eat up your dumb ass up. It is better you guys should go and hid yourselves in your fucking house, or you should report to your government." 
Michael stand on the main road, then started shouting and saying "You guys don't have TV in your house? don't you watch news? zombies are everywhere everybody get inside the house do not spread the virus"
But nobody was listening to Michael because of the way he was dressed, people think Michael is crazy because he looks dirty. He got into his car and drive. While driving, he came across a big Lab and he parked, get down and went inside the Lab.He saw so many scientists moving around working busy. Michael stand in the middle of the Laboratory and started shouting that
"All the scientists in this lab I need your attention okay? everybody pay attention! zombies are in the world, and they're in China right now. If you guys can work and get vaccine before they arrive here it would be better for you and me"
But they were looking at Michael as a mad man 
Laboratory file keeper call the security to take Michael and throw him up in Mental Department.
"I'm serious I am not mad okay, I'm fine I am not crazy, you just have to listen to me, don't be dump ass mehn! zombies are in china right now, go and on your TV it is news everywhere zombies are in china avoid being bitten by them."
They all see Michael as someone that is mentally unstable. He was locked up in a room that the wall is transparent glass so his able to see all that is going on in the lab. He was looking at how the staffs are moving around busy with their work. After five minutes people started screaming running around in the laboratory.
Micheal heart beat fast then he started banging the door saying
"Please open this dam door what the hell is going on"? Suddenly he saw how people are biting themselves. Most of them has turn to zombie then Michael started laughing seriously and saying that 
"If you guys had listened to me all the s*** would not happen. Ooh my gosh! it been long I watch TV, let me just sit my ass down and watch."
Everywhere was scattered  but the most surprising  part is that one of the Lab staff was not bitten by a zombie. Zombies were passing beside him but could not touch him. Micheal  was surprised, he kept on looking at that man the scientist man didn't move an inch where he was sitting.

On february 12, 2027. In Center for Disease and Pandemic District Hospital Washington, DC. So many staffs are busy working in there; And each of them as it's own position. Some of them are: Luis George, Jane Raymond, John, Fred and Margaret. 
It was past 8am, when Luis George that works mostly on blood samples came to drop a package that contains a zombie's blood on the desk of Mrs. Jane Raymond, who happens to be the director of the District hospital. Luis told Mrs. Jane that, an anonymous person came to deliver a package and it read thus; "A community is full of zombies search for it!"
And later on, Luis betrayed Mrs. Jane.
Margret and Fred argument leads to the blow off of the DC. After the DC was destroyed, those that survives gets to meet a lot of different people on their way while looking for shelter. One of those they met was named Michael.
The world turns into hell when everybody started turning into zombies; then a fight began between the remaining survivors, Zombies, and Aliens. 
Vaccine that was created was later distributed among the other survivors they later met. Unfortunately, the vaccine expired which leads to another tragedy and that makes Michael the last man standing........

Guwooh—!"
"Gyaaaaaaah—"
A cry could be heard in the midst of the ringing noise. 
While listening to the message, YuWon searched for the source of the cry.
 
[SURVIVE THE ZOMBIE HORDE.] 
[All zombies will perish after 30 minutes.] 
 
The mission wasn't much different from what YuWon experienced before. 
But there was one difference. 
'There's a fuckton of 'em.'
It was the number of zombies that started appearing in the streets. 
The difficulty of the Tutorial was different per area. The difficulty was related to the number of people, so the higher the population, the higher the difficulty. 
It made sense. Since there were more people that could cooperate, the missions had to have stronger monsters to make things fair. 
At least, that would be the logical reasoning.
'It's all nonsensical.'
"Kiyaaaah—!"
"Mo-Monsters!"
"Zom…bies? It's fucking zombies!"
YuWon observed the people that screamed and ran in terror after discovering the zombies. 
It was unavoidable. The streets of Hongdae were far too small for how densely populated it was. 
Elsewhere, the streets would be wide and empty, leaving more room for people to escape. There would also be fewer zombies, significantly lowering the difficulty.
'There's just too many people in the streets.'
There wasn't an adequate place to run away to. Therefore, the streets of Hongdae would become flooded by the blood of people torn apart by zombies. 
There was only a single solution to this problem—when you can't run, you should fight. You can't survive such a large horde simply by running.
As this place became a "Tutorial Zone," you could only run so far, and zombies were hiding around every corner. And… 
'It's a normal reaction.'
YuWon was the same.
Accepting the world as it was, adapting, and doing everything he could to survive only happened after the Tutorial started.
 
[You are able to check your status by saying the activation phrase "Status Window."]
[You have obtained a basic weapon - 「Old Knife」] 
 
Each person was given a weapon: knives, hammers, spears, and various other weapons. It seems like everyone was given a weapon that they could utilize well. YuWon was given a knife. 
Clank—
YuWon tossed the knife away.
It was an item with a dull blade. You could barely call it a weapon.
'I couldn't even kill three zombies with this thing.'
It would be a different story if he could utilize it well, but the old knife was just slightly better than going bare-handed. In truth, it was no better than a steel rod. It was a weapon that was so old, it could break any time. 
On the other hand, the theme of the 1st Tutorial was "Survival."
The countless zombies would continue to respawn no matter how many you killed.
"Kiyaaah—!"
"Do-Don't push!"
"Fucking move, damn it!"
The unfortunate people who happened to be close to the zombies were already getting bit, shoving and pulling each other.
They didn't hesitate to sacrifice others for their own survival. That was human nature. 
'Surviving, huh…'
YuWon unzipped his bags, opening a small bottle that was inside.
"That won't be enough."
The things YuWon had to do couldn't be achieved by simply clearing the Tutorial normally . 
Before, simply surviving was enough, but now he had a more important objective. 
YuWon had brought other weapons to use instead of the old knife. And one more thing… 
YuWon poured the contents of the bottle onto the sashimi knife.
Splash—
"Alright."
Done preparing, YuWon had a fierce look in his eyes.
He didn't need to check his own status. He could feel what his starting stats were.
"Let's go."
Vroom—
YuWon dove head-first into the horde of zombies.
Zombies were slow and weak, but to compensate, they were immune to pain and extremely hard to kill. You needed a lot of strength to kill them. There weren't a lot of people in the 1st Tutorial who would be able to kill them. But…
Slash—
 
[You were the first to kill a zombie in your area.]
[You have obtained 100 points.]
[Your experience points massively increased.]
[You leveled up.]
[Strength increased by 1.]
[Dexterity increased by 1.]
[Constitution increased by 1.]
 
The sashimi knife sliced through the zombies' heads with great ease. 
'Perfect.'
A smile crossed YuWon's face.
It was worth moving quickly. The reward for the first zombie kill was quite generous for the effort it took. 100 points were hard to gain in the early stages of the Tutorial, and the stats that came with the level-up would be very useful.
His arms and legs were stronger—the power of the strength stat.
The zombies appeared slower, while his body felt lighter—the power of the dexterity stat.
His body felt revitalized, while his breathing stabilized—the power of the constitution stat. 
YuWon kept moving. 
Shing-—!
Stab, stab, stab—!
Slash—
YuWon swung his knife, cutting down the zombies one by one in a flash.
 
[You leveled up.]
[You leveled…]
 
Leveling up was quick in the beginning. Of course, it was also due to YuWon cutting the heads off of zombies as fast as he could.
A flurry of endorphin-rushing notifications.
'This feels great.'
YuWon laughed, seeing the endless number of zombies surrounding him.
This was one of his reasons for selecting Hongdae for his Tutorial location. The number of zombies directly correlated to the population of the region. And that would be consistent until the next area of the Tutorial. 
Watching YuWon cut down dozens of zombies by himself, the people's reactions started to change one by one. 
"Hold up…"
"Could the zombies actually be pretty weak?"
"Doesn't that seem pretty doable?"
Wherever you go, there will always be people without fear. A few people started joining the fight after witnessing YuWon slaughter the zombies. 
The rewards from the early stages of the Tutorial were extremely important. Among the people who were quick to act that day, a few of them would probably make it to the upper floors of the Tower. But of course…
'It won't be easy.'
"Ahhhhh!"
"Wha—what's up with these things!"
"Why won't they die!"
No matter how hard you hit them in the head with a sword, zombies wouldn't die easily. It was no laughing matter, slicing the head of a zombie with a dull, old sword. Many got bit by the zombies, surprised that the zombies weren't so easy to kill.
'The toxins of a zombie are bound to be fatal to the participants of the 1st Tutorial.' 
Slice—
The knife didn't feel like it was making as smooth a cut anymore. It felt as though the knife had become dull, however, that was not the reason.
"Tsk."
Pow—!
YuWon made a sound of disapproval while kicking away a zombie.
The effect must have worn off.
Zip—
YuWon pulled out another bottle in a hurry.
Smash—!
Splash—
He cut the bottle apart with his sword, wetting the blade with its contents.
The salty, fishy smell pierced YuWon's nose.
'It's definitely working.'
YuWon remembered a distant memory, something one of his companions told him right after they entered the Tower.
"Unlike you, I don't have any talents. Seriously, compare me to anyone, and it becomes obvious how untalented I am."
"At least you still survived."
"I was lucky. I made an amazing discovery in the 1st Tutorial."
"The first one? Don't you just have to survive against zombies in that one?"
"Do you know where I used to work?"
"Work? Why are you bringing up your work…? What was your job?"
'The man I met on the 1st Floor was quite fortunate. Right about now, unlike most people, he is probably hunting zombies with ease.' 
"I managed salt evaporation ponds. The zombies in the 1st Tutorial…
"Their weakness is salt."
Slash—
Once again, the sashimi knife cut the zombie's head like it was butter.
It was thanks to the salt water that YuWon had just poured on the knife. 
 
[You have defeated 100 zombies in 10 minutes.]
[You have achieved an unbelievable feat in the Tutorial.]
[You have obtained 3 unallocated stat points.] 
[Unallocated stat points will be distributed at random if unused by the end of the Tutorial.] 
 
Yuwon's eyes widened. He wasn't expecting this kind of reward. 
'It's possible to earn unallocated stat points in the Tutorial?'
Unallocated stat points were a valuable reward. You gain stats at random when you level up, so unallocated stat points were very useful since it could be used to raise any stats you wanted. Your level becomes harder to raise the higher it is, but unallocated stat points were completely separate from the leveling system. 
'Should I save it for later?'
Currently, Arcane Power was disabled. Arcane Power would only be available starting in the middle stages of the Tutorial. It was the most efficient stat, as well as the hardest to raise. That was Arcane Power. 
But instead of saving the points for later, it might be better to use it now for an immediate power boost. 
YuWon made a decision after weighing his options.
'Let's save it for now.'
Looking at the big picture, it seemed like a waste to use unallocated stat points to crush some measly zombies. Besides, YuWon wasn't going to simply slash and stab the zombies anymore.
'It's the ten minute mark.'
The number of zombies would start overflowing any second now. 
YuWon had to hurry and make his preparations.
'Where would be an adequate place…?'
YuWon looked around as he cleared himself a path by slicing and dicing zombies. The streets had devolved into absolute chaos from the battle between people and zombies. In the midst of his search, a place caught YuWon's attention.
'Found it.'
 
* * *
 
"Ahhhhhh!"
Crack—!
Kim MyungHoon swung his old knife. 
Once again it didn't go as expected. He couldn't get a clean cut on the zombie's head. 
'Fuck! Why isn't this working?!'
He couldn't figure out the reason.
YuWon, who charged into the zombies faster than anyone else, slayed the zombies like it was nothing. 
In comparison, MyungHoon, as well as others, were barely killing one zombie after multiple slashes. 
'Is it because the blade is dull?'
YuWon wielded a different knife. 
Instead of a worn out knife, he used the sashimi knife and machete he happened to have on hand.
'Damn it. If only I had a proper weapon like him…'
"Guuuuuuuh—"
A zombie with its head half-split open roared.
The nasty stench was unbearable. Startled, MyungHoon kicked the zombie in the chest. 
Bam—!
"Fucking hell!"
The zombie must have felt no pain. After falling down, it got back up like it was nothing. Kim MyungHoon stared at the unfaltering zombie in disgust. 
"Hey, MyungHoon."
"Is it just me… or are they growing in numbers?" As their stamina was reaching their limits, MyungHoon's friend asked him this question.
He bit his trembling lips. He knew it as well.
'Instead of decreasing, they're multiplying.'
There was no way they could handle this many of them.
"Guwaaaaaah—"
"Gyaaack—"
They were surrounded by zombies on all sides.
There was no way to escape, nor did they have any strength left to continue fighting. Their fates were sealed. 
Can we hold these bastards off?
How are we supposed to survive in this situation?
'How the fuck are we supposed to do that?!'
Kim MyungHoon heard the answer in that moment. 
"YuWon! Where did YuWon go?"
There was only one way to survive now that they were surrounded.
Kim YuWon.
They had to receive his help. YuWon's skill was the real deal, being able to cut zombies like they were made of tofu. 
"He's gone!"
"Fuck, where did that motherfucker go?!"
"They—they're coming!"
"Guwaaaah—"
The zombies were closing in tighter on them. 
Kim MyungHoon swung his knife with all he had. 
At that very moment… 
Clang—!
His eyes opened wide. A fragment of his knife had fallen to the ground. The knife he was swinging broke in half. 
 "Are you fucking—"
Though completely dull, it was at least something that MyungHoon could use as a weapon to protect himself. Now, he no longer had a way to defend himself against the zombies.
"Guwaaah—"
A zombie got within spitting distance, widening its jaws at MyungHoon.
A nose-piercing stench. Rotten teeth that would soon tear him apart.
"Ahhhhhhhh—!"
He screamed, helplessly watching the zombie that was about to take his life. 
"Uh… ah…?"
Something was off. The zombies suddenly stopped moving.
"Wha—what's going on?"
"Why did these fuckers suddenly…?"
They hadn't reached the stated time limit yet. There was no reason for the zombies to freeze. And that wasn't the weirdest part… 
"Chiii—"
"Gugh, guwahhh—"
"Gyaaack—!"
The zombies started to twitch, screaming in pain.
They were monsters that didn't feel any pain, no matter how much their arms and legs were cut, even withstanding broken bones. 
Yet, suddenly they were crying in agony, falling one by one to the ground. 
Thud—
"Chiii—"
The zombies' rotten flesh started melting, as if they had been splashed with acid. 
"What the fuck…"
"Hey, something's falling!"
"What?"
Kim MyungHoon raised his head, following his friend's observation.
Lost in terror, he hadn't noticed it. There were things falling from the sky. 
MyungHoon reached out for one of them with the palm of his hands.
It was a familiar-looking crystal.
He wanted to confirm his suspicions, so he licked it.
        T/N: Do drugs, kids. 
        PR/N: Wait, no, don't just lick random white crystals, kids. 
"Ugh, salty…"
It was a familiar taste.
"… Salt?"
MyungHoon looked up again. 
Salt was raining down from the skies.

He became stronger, faster than anyone else... but he lost. In the end, there was only despair for Kim YuWon. In his last moments, he was given another chance... Through the sacrifice of his comrade, his fate has not been sealed yet. Returning back to the past, he attempts to climb the Tower again with his unmatched talent. To fight the ancient evils that threatens to destroy the Tower.

The humongous creature passes by as I look back at the people beside me and ask if we just saw the same thing, and we did. 

What is that Valuksha thinking? a dragon in the first day? 

and here I am, I thought that only basic zombies would exist for now since its still the first day and I am absolutely fucking wrong. 

there's no way that's a Mythical beast, so it must have been a mutated komodo dragon, but how did he already reach that tremendous scale of strength? but is it really strong? it may be just big only but not strong. 

I thought of fighting it but I quickly disregard the idea for now, I don't see any benefits from it. 

fortunately the dragon didn't rain down destruction as it only passes by quietly. 

after that, we talk for a bit about what is the school I come from, they are pleasantly surprised as my school was pretty far away from here, but I only pointed towards my wolves, I didn't say anything vocally but this is my way of saying 'I got some help.'

we talk about how's my school and district doing over there, and we also talk about the overall situation here. 

inside there were about 100 people, some were childrens, some were adults, some were elderly, 

I am now inside as I observe my surroundings, and I saw that there are still zombies body littered everywhere. 

I tell them I will have to go somewhere since I still have some matters to do and will just come back later, they have reluctant faces to let me go, but then I said that I'll left behind my wolves, with that they agree. 

'Just as I thought they only let me in coz of my ability.'I thought as I proceed to go out all alone. 

"I think this is far enough so that I won't have any unwanted attention."I said sa I brought out a huge axe. 

I need battle experience. 

strength without proper experience and techniques was only a rusty knife. 

with that, I begun the massacre. 

but I didn't just wave my axe like a barbarian, every one of my strike was precisely done as I target weaknesses and attack at their vulnerable spot, well with my strength I could just slice them all but I need to train. 

a few minutes passes as a notification appeared.

[Your Axe mastery increases.]

this is an unexpected result as I felt that my familiarity over the axe increase. 

then I continued my onslaught. 

[Your Axe mastery increases.]
[Your Axe mastery increases.]
[Your Axe mastery increases.]
[Your Axe mastery increases.]

with this rate of me killing zombies won't all the zombie in this district would be gone after a couple of hours? 

I should left a few zombies for people so they should be able to level up to 3. 

the next thing I do is practicing my new abilities related to electric. 

I tried different weapons on my electrical constrict as a notification appeared. 

[Your bow mastery increases.] 

oh? let's try another one 

[Your sword mastery increases.]
[Your lance mastery increases.]
[Your spear mastery increases.]
[Your dagger mastery increases.]

in these short amount of time even though my stats didn't increase but I did felt that my combat prowess increases.

did I say that animals were also infected? 

so yeah along the way I've killed some dogs, cats and some flying creatures. 

all this time I'm in a blindfold in order to practice my electrolocation. 

I'm also adjourned now with golden armor and wings. 

damn right it's wings, I've figured out how to make a wing electrical construct. 

what's more I have made a gun made of electrical construct. 

as long as I know how a particular gun work then I can make an electrical construct out of it.

different guns have differences on how they are made but as long as I know one pistol, rifle, sub machine gun and machine gun then I can increase my mastery over them. 

I don't know if this will work but I'll try to increase my mastery over them and try if I will reach a certain mastery then will I have have inherit some knowledge on how other guns work, we don't have Google at the moment so I can only rely on this. 

right now I'm creating bullets electrical construct as I hold a pistol in my right hand and shots zombies. 

my construct works just like a normal gun but with the bullet being much more faster and deadlier.

[Your pistol masters increase.]
[Your rifle mastery increase.]
[Your submachine gun masterly increases.]
[Your machine gun master increases.]

my familiarity over them increases, but that's it, I didn't gain any knowledge. 

the zombies were lacking so I can't experiment any further. 

with that I trained my telekinesis, 10 chakrams appears and making it to surrounds me. 
 
with this I just walk around, and decided to go back at the mall.

Every now and then I stole some necessities from the stalls and put It inside of my inventory, I don't think they will even suspect me anyway as I don't have any bag with me. 

the night quickly comes as I went outside again and find the nearest power electricity source and charge myself up 

just so you know if I'm full charge then all of my stats increases for 30%, and it makes me able to create much bigger constructs. 

my back was now having 3 huge pair of wings protruding out of it, coupled with my golden armor I now look like an angel that had descended to grace humans with my presence.

I'm now going to another district and train. 

*Boom*

I broke the sound barrier as I flapped my wings. 

these wings can do some impressive things, just like how I am travelling in mach 2 now, good thing I have superior constitution or my body wouldn't have handled the G force generated by this. 

after I arrive I started my killing spree as I use different kind of weapons to increase my mastery over them. 

I'm always using my electrolocation and  telekinesis in order to train them.

once again golden streaks of lightning dance inside the hordes of zombies as their numbers dwindling rapidly. 

[.... Mastery increases.] 
[.... Mastery increases.] 
[.... Mastery increases.]
[.... Mastery increases.] 

notifications keep popping up as I ignored them and continues my killing.

An hour passes by and I'm satisfied, with that I went back in the mall. 

they have tents inside? 

people were sleeping inside a tent, and there are rows of it here. 

that's good then. 

*Next day*

I woke up as I heard the conversation of the youths close from my location. 

they notice that I'm looking towards them and someone spoke to me. 

"Bro let me tell you some information about the next district, only a few people know this for now but there's a rumor in that side that yesterday night, a lightning emperor has descended to the come and help them as he singlehandedly clean half of their district's total zombies."The youth said with a puff being proud by his sources of information. 

"A what now?" I asked him again. 

"A lightning emperor." again. 

"By chance did he have 3 pair of wings?" I said 

"Yes."

"And a helm with a horn?"I said 

"Yes he did, how do you know that?"The youth ask me. 

the youth was sure that aside from him no one could get ahold of that information. 

"Did he also seldomly change weapons mid fight?"I said. 

"He do, do you know him?"The youth was now questioning his information gathering ability. 

"Do I know him? why would I know someone like that, no I don't know him."that's what I said.

but do I know him? 

I FUCKING DO!

PS: Cover's not mine
PPS: English is not my main language.

Hol was walking ahead of Ann's group with Bret and Rubin closer to him. Well, Bret was a bit too close to him. He is pretty sure he felt a  hand touch his ass a couple of times but when he looked at Bret they just gave him an innocent look. Hol could see more similarities with Terrance when Bret did this since Terrance just had love touching his ass to the point they didn't care where they were. 
 
  Hol grabbed Bret's hand when he felt it on his ass and slowly pinch it while giving them a firm look. But it only caused Bret to look at him with a heated gaze that went straight down to his lower half.
 
  "Are you okay dad? Your face looks a little weird…" Rubin looked up at his dad who was giving Bret a weird look. He noticed that when he woke up those two were acting differently with each other and he didn't understand why. Were they arguing with each other?
 
  "Everything is fine. Bret just needs to learn how to keep his hands to himself. Isn't that right?" Hol glare at Bret but it didn't last long after he got a cute look from Bret. He really needs to be more firm with Bret and keep up with his serious image.
 
  "Sorry, sorry. I just was so interested in how fit you are. Those muscles of yours are so nice… I especially like how nice your muscles are down your body…" Bret slowly drags his eyes down Ira's body, focusing more on their ass. He hid the smirk on his face when he clearly saw the embarrassed look on Ira's face.
 
  "Well, keep your interests to yourself. I need to focus." Hol was worried that if Bret kept this up he wouldn't be able to take care of Ann and handle the main mission of this world. He had to block out Bret's obvious heated gaze and focus on Ann who was in the back who was glaring right at them.
 
  As Hol went to block out Bret stare and notice right ahead something interesting. He could see a few of those zombies attracting plants. But for some reason, he couldn't see any zombies around them. That set off a few alerts in Hol head and he immediately stopped walking. He reached for the handgun that was to his side and looked around the area with cautious eyes.

  "Is something wrong dad? Why do you have your gun out?"  Rubin got nervous when he saw his dad's expression grow grim. He looked around the area and felt confused when he didn't even see any zombies around but he then got concerned when he realized there were no zombies at all in this area. There should be a few zombies wandering in the background at least.
 
  "Something bad is going to happen and it's going to happen soon." Hol could feel his body tense as he waited for something to happen. He had a feeling that there are a few high-level zombies around and they are smart ones.
 
  "Should we do something to force them to come out?" Bret was around looking around the area with a serious expression. He really hated that these zombies were going to get in the way of his new relationship. Dying is not an option so he has to kill these zombies who were clearly hiding.
 
  "I think we shou-." Before Hol could say anything a loud noise came from behind and when he looked behind he saw Ann who just knocked over a few glass bottles. Ann had an embarrassed look on her face but he could clearly see a dark look in her eyes.
 
  "Oh no… I didn't mean to do that. I got so nervous that I didn't pay attention to my surroundings. I am so sorry…" Ann gave Ira a teary-eyed look but in her heart, she felt so pleased with her actions.  When she noticed Ira got so serious she knew this was her chance for her plan to get started.
 
  Hol was going to say something to her but he quickly moved out the way when something rushed at him. Hol was dodging all the attacks that were coming at him at fast-paced. In front of him was a zombie. This zombie was different from the other zombies he met before.
 
  He could see black veins all over the zombie's body but unlike other zombies, this zombie didn't look as rotted as the other zombies. He could clearly see they had wounds but if that was hidden he would have thought they were alive.
 
  When Hol shot at the zombie's head it didn't go down right away. This was concerning since zombies usually die once they are hit in the head. Seeing this he decided to keep on shooting in the zombie's head until it fell to the ground. Hol walk up to the zombie who was on the ground and started to stomp on its head until it cracked under his boot.
 
  When he lifted his foot he saw something shining in the crushed head of the zombie. Reaching down he picked up a glowing stone that was covered in the zombie crushed head bits. Hol quickly learned from Ira's memory that this was something that could help people with abilities get stronger. It is especially useful if the stone is the same as the user's ability. 
 
  But Hol frowned once he realized this is something only found in zombies level two and higher. And these types of zombies usually stick together so that they can hunt humans together. So that means there are more zombies around but they are clearly hiding somewhere.
  "This is a problem. We are being hunted by high-level zombies but they aren't going to attack us like how other zombies do. They will be smart about it and hunt us when our guard is down."  Hol put the glowing stone in his pocket and said this to Bret and Rubin and Ann group who came over after he killed off the high-level zombie.
 
  "I am so scared. What should we do Ira? I don't want to die." Ann quickly held onto Ira's strong arm and looked at him with wide watery eyes. She pushed her chest onto Ira's arm and went to put her head on his shoulder.
 
  "Get off of him. You holding onto him won't help the situation. It will only get in the way of him fighting and you know that." Bret could feel electricity going through his body as he felt anger and jealousy go through him as he watched Ann hold onto his man.
 
 "Yeah… We aren't that close and it is rather inappropriate. We are in a life and death situation so you shouldn't be holding onto me like that."  Hol took his arm out of Ann's hold and quickly put space between them. When Ann tries to get close to him again Bret quickly got in the way and glared at her.
 
  "We have to figure out how to draw these zombies out. While they are smarter than other zombies they still aren't smart enough to ignore their urges. Their weakness is bloodlust so we have to make them think they have us trapped so that they will come out to attack us." Hol knew the only reason why that zombie went to attack him was that they assume they could take him down because he wasn't completely focused anymore.
 
  "For now we have to stick close to each other and not do anything that could get us killed. We have to work together if we don't want to die." Hol still felt tense at the zombies who were clearly hiding away. He could feel their hungry gazes on the group but he couldn't figure out where they were.
 
  "Should we keep walking ahead and wait for the zombies to attack us?" Bret didn't like to think Ira could die by these high-level zombies. He just wanted to hide Ira away and not allow him to get hurt. He couldn't allow that to happen again… 
 
  Bret's eyebrows furrow at that thought. Ira never got hurt in front of him but for some reason, he knew that wasn't true. For some reason, it felt like they were hurt before and he couldn't do anything to protect them. Bret felt a headache appear suddenly and his vision went dark for a second.
 
  "Bret, are you okay?" Hol quickly held onto Bret who suddenly got pale and almost fell.  He felt concerned at how cold they were and was worry it may have to do with the zombie bite from before but he knew Rubin healed the bite.
 
  "Sorry… I just felt lightheaded for a second there. I am better now."  Bret gave Ira a small smile and nuzzled his head into their firm chest. From the corner of his eye, he could see Ann with an ugly look on her face and he felt smug at this fact.
 
  "Fine but make sure to stick close to me." Hol stopped holding Bret close to his chest but still kept an arm around their shoulder.  Hol ignored the hard stare he was getting from Ann and just focused on making sure nothing happened to Bret.
 
  Ann looks at the backs of Ira and Bret with rage brewing in her eyes. She never felt so betrayed before and she wanted to make them suffer like she is suffering. So she decided that everyone here at the moment had to die so that she can start over.
 
  As the group got closer to the zombie attracting plants Ann quickly stopped at it. A man she didn't bother to learn the name of looked at her with concerned eyes and went to say something to her but she ignored him. She took out a lighter from the dress she was wearing and burned the plant.
 
  "What?! Ann are you fucking crazy?! Now the zombies are going to be on our ass!" Grady was shocked to see what Ann just did. He couldn't understand why this sweet-looking woman would do something so fucked up. But when he looked at Ann's expression he didn't see the kind woman from the few days, it was a cold woman who was giving him a disgusted look.
 
  Ann didn't say anything to the group of men and ran away from them. She knew there was a hidden car nearby that originally she and Ira would have escaped together in but seeing how he was treating her it was obvious she wouldn't even bother to help him.
 
  "I didn't think she would do it right away. I gave her more credit than she deserved." Hol looked at the back of the quickly disappearing Ann with an indifferent look on his face. He never thought Ann would have acted so stupidly but this will help him out.
 
   Hol could sense the high-level zombies quickly approaching them and he took his arm off of Bret's shoulder. He rolled his shoulder as he got ready to face off against the high-level zombies who were quickly approaching. 
 
  "I can help out as well. Don't do anything dangerous by yourself." Bret stuck close to Ira as he got ready to use his abilities with Ira's ability.  He didn't really care much that Ann tried to kill them. It would just give him a good reason why he had to kick her out of the base.
 
  When the high-level zombies appeared at once Hol quickly cut one of the zombies into many pieces with his wind. Bret burnt one to a crisp with their lightning ability. It was rather a fast and brutal takedown of these high-level zombies. Just because it was going well Hol didn't let down his guard. Getting cocky would be his downfall.
 
  After a few minutes, all the high-level zombies were dead on the ground. Some were cut into pieces and others were burnt to a crisp. In the middle of these dead zombies were Hol and Bret who were casually fixing up their clothes.
 
  "Well now that is taken care of let go back to the base and watch Ann work her sob story. I can't wait to see how she will tell her story to her base." Hol couldn't help but smirk as he thought about how Ann would try to gain the sympathy of the people of the base and how she would look when she realized they were still alive.  
 
  "I just love how devious you are. I wonder if you are like that in bed as well~" Bret could help but snuggle up to Ira and rub his face into their shoulder. He couldn't help but fall more in love with Ira. What a smart man he was dating.
 
  Everyone was looking at Ira and Bret with shocked eyes. They still couldn't believe they took down so many high-level zombies by themselves and now they are flirting over the dead bodies of the zombies. 
 
  Rubin was the only one who was looking at them with shining eyes. He was so happy that his dad was dating Bret. That means he gets to have a second dad now! And his second dad is as strong as his dad. This is so cool in his eyes.
 
  "Well, now we have to go back to my car and drive back to the base.  We can take our time. I want Ann to really sell her act to the base." Hol wasn't concerned with Ann. The more she lies to everyone in the base the better for him.
 
  Now he will just take him time and find some more supplies to bring back to the base. He can even get started with his research on finding the cure for the zombie virus.

After being stabbed accidentally by a neighbor who thought he was their cheating boyfriend Hol soul was taken by a system that told him that if he does enough tasks he could be reborn again.  All he has to do is take care of people from different worlds who keep on messing with the balance of the world and destroying the said world. Doing the tasks are easy but there is always this one person who keeps showing up and making him fall in love.

Hol: Why are you so in love with me?!

ML:  I just find your personality so endearing and I want to keep you to myself.

Hol :  (●///▽///●) Keep me. . .

System: Host! You give in so easily!

Hundreds of zombie hordes and different types of zombies stood outside of the comic book store, bashing the windows of the store and throwing rocks and pebbles at the walls, trying to get in. Anthony, Rose, and Audrey stand from the inside of the store, geared up with things. Anthony was geared up with his classic Cheeto launcher, his ruby axe, and his basically broken captain america shield, which he was planning to repair after the fight. Rose was equipped with her shovel, and Audrey was armed with her weapon, AKA a cleaver. Rose walks to the doors and sets her hand on the door handle. Anthony covers the underground base with pieces of the store's floor that Trevor had dag all that time ago. Anthony lifts a thumbs up. "Are we ready?" Anthony says. Audrey looks at the ground. "Ready" Audrey replies. Rose looks back at them. "Alright." She says, then unlocking the door. Instantly, a tank zombie barrels through the door, sending Rose flying backwards and smashing into a shelf of outdated DC comics, as the shelf falls over, crashing into the back wall. Anthony takes his half broken Captain America shield out and jumps onto the tanks back, stabbing his shield into the tanks zombies arm, as the arm slides off and lands on the ground. The tank roars and spins around, and Anthony struggles to stay on the zombies back. "Audrey, help Rose! I'll take care of this!" Anthony says. Then, all of a sudden, zombies' heads fall downwards. "What's happening?" Anthony says, watching zombies fall one by one. Then he comes out, "Trevor!" Anthony says, "Did ya miss me?" Trevor said, "I'll keep the zombies away from you, while you take down that tank!" Said Trevor. "Got it friend!" Anthony says. Anthony whips his axe out, raising it up and slicing down, cutting the zombies back. Blood drips from the wound, splatting onto the floor. Anthony then pulls out the cheeto launcher, pulling the barrel of the gun back, ready to fire. But suddenly, the tank reaches its hand over its shoulder and grabs Anthony by the shirt, then slamming Anthony onto the ground, cracking the floor. Drool and saliva falls on the floor of the store around Anthony. The tank snarls and goes in for the bite, and- WHAM! The tank is whacked in the knee as the tank falls down. Rose grabs the tank by the hair and pulls up the head, then slicing the neck of the tank in a heartbeat. Rose lowers her shovel down and lifts Anthony up. "Thanks," Anthony says. Rose shrugs. "It was nothing. Now, let's go help Trevor" She says. Audrey follows behind Rose and Anthony and they run outside, to see Trevor slicing zombies left right forwards backwards 3 dimensional you name it. Trevor, who now looks like he's about to pass out, whacks the zombie out of commission. Trevor falls backward, straight into sleep mode, "He must really care about you not dying Anthony." Audrey said, "Yep." Anthony replies. Anthony tries to drag 
Trevor inside of the comic book bunker, but because of how enormous this kid is, and his gadget vest, Anthony is unable to drag Trevor. "A little help guys?" Anthony said, straining, Rose and Audrey walk over to Trevor and Anthony. Rose and Audrey grab Trevors jacket, and pull him into the comic book store bunker. "Why the hell is he so heavy?!" Audrey yells.  Trevor is set on the sleeping bag, and then Rose, Audrey, and Anthony, just hang around, doing stuff. Audrey is trying to figure out why Trevor is so goddamn heavy, Rose is watching Anthony try to fix up the radio scanner so the squad could find their missing parents. "I cannot figure out how Trevor is so heavy, I give up." Audrey said, then sitting down in a chair. "What do we do? Other than just hang in here and do stuff?" Says Audrey. "I dunno, sharpen your blade?" Rose replied. Anthony looks over to Trevor, dropping his work supplies on his work table. "How about we wake up Trevor?" Anthony asks, raising an eyebrow. Rose shrugs. "Let him get some rest, Anthony. He needs some after fighting all of those zombies anyway" Rose replies. "You're right." Anthony said. Audrey ignores it and tries to wake Trevor up. "Wakie wakie eggs n bakey!" Said Audrey, shaking Trevor. "What are you doing?" Anthony said, looking over his shoulder.  "I'm trying to wake up Trevor!" Audrey says. Anthony grabs his supplies and gets to work. "You're supposed to give him rest, stop messing around and just chill." He says. Anthony starts to connect wires and place pieces of scrap metal on top of the inside of the radio scanner, covering up the inner workings. Anthony lifts his welding mask up, and shoves his TLG filler rods into his pockets. "Done" Anthony says, sighing and sitting on a chair. "And plus, I have a new idea for some gadgets . AKA: walkie talkies!" Said Anthony in excitement. "We could use some communication around here" Audrey says. Anthony nods and climbs out of the underground base, lifting himself up to the actual store. Anthony stands up and looks through the window, and the sun had just about set, and the sky was barely blue. Anthony slides back into the base. "Okay, can one of you get me materials?" Anthony says. "I can" Trevor suddenly says, fully up and leaning on the wall.  Anthony pulls a thumbs up. "Splendid, friend!" Anthony says. "Wait, you guys can also help too," Anthony says. "Rose, you're in charge of getting scrap metal, which you can get at the junkyard. And Audrey, you can get brick." Anthony says. Audrey and Rose nod, jumping out of the hole. Trevor follows behind them. "Don't die, Trevor" Anthony says. Trevor chuckles. "Anthony, I never die" Trevor says, finally exiting the store. Anthony then reaches into his bag and pulls the guy's diary from before, starting to flip through the pages. "Meanwhile, I'll learn how to control the NIght Lurkers themselves." Anthony says.
