Global Awakening: Apocalypse Ender's Chronicle

Chapter 21: Survivors

Shane was worried that the Spitter Zombie's body had completely disappeared.

Without wasting any more time, he ran to see if there was anything left from the zombie. Luckily, half of its body was still there!

He disregarded the gore surrounding him as his urge to obtain loot took over him.

[ Do you want to retrieve the loot? ]

As soon as he touched the lower body of the zombie, he received the notification that he needed and immediately replied.

"Yes."

[ You have earned 30 Experience Points. ]

[ Loots obtained: 2 Item Upgrade Crystal, 2 Zombie Cores, 500mL water, 100mL Spitter Zombie Blood, 1 Acid Pouch, 2 Spirit Enhancement Bottles ]

Shane had no time to celebrate with the number of experience points he received as another notification from the system followed.

[ You have leveled up. ]

[ Friend List and Private Chat Function unlocked. ]

[ Hint: You can only use Private Chat for those listed as your friends who are at least Level 4. ]

'I finally leveled up...' Shane felt relieved as he thought that he needed more experience points.

Then, he checked his current status.

'One more level, and I'll be able to unlock one of the Memory Spheres.' Shane couldn't help but smile at this thought.

After seeing that the remains of the Spitter Zombie disappeared like fragmented pieces of light, Shane returned to his shelter to take cover.

Of course, he didn't forget to light up some wooden planks with a lingering fire around the area. Although it was raining, the Burn Effect of the bullets that spread in the surroundings was still present.

It should help him warm up his shelter.

As soon as he returned to his shelter and set up the fire, he immediately removed his already-soaked clothes and hung them on the side of his tent.

Then, he decided to open one of the canned goods as his meal...

"Cloud, will your detection weaken with this rain?" Shane asked the A.I. Assistant.

[ No. It will require advanced radar jamming and wireless jamming to impede my detection. ]

"Is that so?" Shane replied casually. Well, he didn't really know how the A.I. worked. The A.I. Assistant felt more like a magic technology in his view.

After this, he decided to check the chat board once again.

Regional Chat

Chat Limit: 10

Online: 7/78,945

Shane was shocked as soon as he realized that so many people had just died. He couldn't help but sigh after seeing this before he shifted his attention to the chats.

[ Herman: I saw your chats above, Raze and Shane. You guys must have incredible talents. I'm currently stuck here in the lighthouse. Can any one of you see the lighthouse somewhere in the bay area? I couldn't leave this place since 5 Zombie Dogs appeared at the same time. Can you guys help me? I'm going to pay you with my Zombie Cores. I no longer have any bullets. ]

[ Clarissa: I have never seen the sunlight yet. My starting region is in a subway station. I'm lucky I awakened a Rare Talent. It gave me a Survivor Skill called Telekinesis... You should try using the lighthouse's light to call someone else's attention. ]

[ Herman: I have no idea how to make it work! I've been trying over the past three days. Wait, so you only have a Rare Talent, and you leveled up this fast? That's lucky. I have an Epic Talent, but it's not suited for combat! It's Magic Crafting! I can't even gather materials. ]

[ Casper: I also used up all my bullets. Just toughen up and use your hatchet. I don't think there's a method to help other survivors until the Zombie Wave finishes. Also, I think that there will be a chance to buy bullets, so don't throw your revolver. ]

[ Herman: Yes! I haven't thrown it away yet. Do you mind sharing your talent? ]

[ Casper: I will not share it. However, I can tell you that it's only an Uncommon Talent. I'm just amazing. ]

[ Travis: I have a Legendary Talent called Dragon's Blood. I think I'm evolving into a Dragon... Hehehe. Don't worry, I will remember all of you. Once I get stronger, I will make a huge shelter, and I will take all of you. ]

[ Raze: Shane! Are you still not online?! I found the Zombie Rat's nest, and I reached level 3! It's a pity they're only giving 1 Experience Points each. Anyway, I'm the second one to get the limited offer! 8 more left! ]

[ Travis: What is 8 more left? What are you saying? Also, isn't 1 Exp Point normal? ]

[ Raze: Just reach level 3 faster! Only the first 10 people to reach level 3 can get the offer! That offer will only last an hour, and there are no refunds, so make sure to choose carefully when you get the chance. ]

[ Shane: Congrats, Raze. What about the Item Upgrade Crystals? Did the Zombie Rats drop them? ]

[ Raze: No... I didn't loot any crystal at all. ]

[ Travis: What is an Item Upgrade Crystal? What does it do? Where can I find them? ]

[ Lorna: Hi! I'm Lorna... I have a Rare Talent that guarantees a drop of Item Upgrade Crystal in every 10 Zombies I kill in addition to its normal drop rate. ]
