章節 5: Running from the soldiers.
By having 10 Scoins one can buy the map function, and it also included a 5 Scoins discount on the level 2 system, which costs 100 Scoins.
Viktor didn't buy it anyway, although he wanted to, he thought it really wasn't that necessary at the moment.
Although it was certainly an interesting function, it was not as accurate and you lost 5 Scoins, if you later bought level 2 of the system, which was not much, but maybe in the future he will need it.
It was important for him to keep those because the system store also had very useful things.
If he lacks just for making a hasty decision, it would be foolish of him, especially since he was only going to visit nearby areas.
For example, the temporary antidote for zombies, which cost 50 Scoins, took out zombie infections for 1 minute. It might not seem like much, but if you're already infected, it would take a while for you to die, about 15 minutes based on the MHA. And if the antidote is consumed in that time, you could save your life.
The reason why he initially thought it was important to buy the map even at the cost of losing those valuable points, was so he wouldn't get lost. The map included a marker and location function, with which he could mark his house, and so he could go hunting further away from it.
With that, he would not be exposed to people in his neighborhood seeing him and accusing him.
If in other areas they see him from afar, even if they record him, it would not matter much, since with his clothes they would not recognize him, but in his neighborhood they could recognize it.
He was not good at locating or learning maps, and cell phone gps no longer worked in all places, plus with all the current destruction the streets were not always exactly the same as in the past.
Since Viktor hardly ever went out except for his jobs, and even when he went to his jobs he only learned the way to go or other references to know where he was (for example remembering a flashy sign) and not the names of the streets.
He only knew a few areas, and he was afraid of being recognized.
Also, having a registered map was an option that gave him a certain sense of security, since he could mark his house and register things as they were at the time of registering it, allowing him to remember whether or not he could pass by that place after registering it.
He decided to go out hunting when the next day of taking out the garbage arrived and wait for the soldiers to finish their weekly explorations to finally go out.
This week he decided to go a little further and decided for fear of getting lost, to follow a route with which he was very familiar.
Go to the supermarket where he worked for 3 months, which was relatively close to his house, about 1000 meters away. Having to walk 2000 meters in total on his round trip.
The week before he walked a little less distance, but it took him a long time because he was looking around, and he walked it in a circle.
This time he would go on a straighter path, where he could see the situation of the busy streets, leaving a little of your neighborhood.
***
When leaving Viktor traveled 700 meters and deviated a little from his path, since he saw 3 zombies, two closer and one separated from the previous pair.
He fiercely fought against these and exhausted himself both physically and mentally, although it was not a difficult fight, he still felt tired.
After all; it was hard to cut necks and hit zombies, seeing blood and smelling the scent of it was not pleasant either.
After killing 2 other zombies in the area, he fought a skeleton, which was a little more difficult to kill, but he managed without problems.
This gave him a total of 7 experience points and Scoins.
To level up you needed 100 experience points and Viktor by now had killed 7 zombies and 1 skeleton, thus adding a total of 42 experience points and the same amount of Scoins.
After killing 2 other zombies, he already felt more tired than the other weeks, so he decided to go back home, despite not being able to get to the supermarket.
'Not everything goes as planned, I already earned enough for today' Viktor thought.
Although the soldiers this month did not bring food for him, last month they did.
He did not have many problems regarding this, so his intention was more to hunt and see the situation in the area than to get food.
***
Viktor got bored, locked up in his house and talked a bit with his family (by cell phone, which sometimes still worked in his area).
Until the next week, when he went out again, this time going straight in the opposite direction. to the former supermarket.
This time he managed to kill several zombies, in fact he was very surprised by how many there were, possibly there was a portal in the area which happened after the army passed last week.
But since the monsters were low-ranking undead, he didn't worry too much.
What he did not expect is that he would meet a group of 3 soldiers, who saw his movement, but did not distinguish what it was.
Suspecting that it was a person and not a monster from its movements, they followed it without firing.
It was common for people to go hunting, but this was punishable by the state, so the soldiers wanted to capture him.
Viktor dropped his ax and ran off, trying to lose them.
Viktor ran quickly and tried to lose his pursuers; they didn't shoot, because they didn't want to kill a civilian if it was one. When he dropped the ax they realized that it was indeed a person.
Luckily for Viktor, the soldiers couldn't follow him, as he, although he had thick clothing, was considerably less than all the gear the soldiers wore. Besides, they couldn't drop their weapons and leave them behind like Viktor could.
Although he could leave his DNA with the ax he knew they weren't going to take so much trouble to find out who he was, after all there were many criminals who went out to do vandalism and others, they couldn't do tests for each one of them. Even so, the State issued that the soldiers could shoot at will in these cases.
Viktor was really lucky that these particular soldiers have some conscience and don't shoot randomly.
He had run away from his house as he didn't want his area to be investigated too much and he didn't want the neighbors to see him being chased.
But he remembered quite well how he ran, and even though he didn't know much about directions, he was still an adult who lived alone.
So he knew a bit where he was (since it was still relatively close to his house) and after a while, he was finally able to get to his house…Almost without getting lost…Almost.
In fact, he was scared because at a certain point he took the wrong path and luckily he realized when he recognized a building and realized that it was the wrong direction.
What he did not expect after that little scare was that in his own house much more mysterious things were going to happen to him...
