As for the gun, it was safe. He could kill zombies from a distance, and it's the powerful weapon any person can have in the apocalypse.
With that, he rose to his feet, a determined expression etching his face. He walked over to the door and opened door silently, he saw the zombies mindlessly wandering on the corridor. Almost all of them were residents that turned, and he recognized some of his neighbours walking among them in their grotesque faces.
Then—he walked back, and locked his door, and he not wanting to attract their attention. He opened his system again and studied it.
It was a long panel to read and it took him ten minutes to completely finish it.
So this is how the system goes.
The system has 9 features: Your stats, Inventory, Shop, Summon Forces, Mission, Fortune Wheel, Daily Rewards, Skills, Zombie Encounter.
First, the your stats tab can notifies me about to health, experience, skills, and other vital information here.
The inventory tab is an infinite space where he can store stuff such as weapons, supplies, foods, and so on.
The third one is the Shop tab. The shop tab is where things got interesting. This is the tab where he can buy weapons, foods, supplies, military equipment. There are icons that are greyed out, indicating he can't purchase it yet, but he can make out a picture. There are motorcycles, vehicles, and even figher aircrafts!
In short, it offers everything.
To buy an item from the shop tab requires only one thing, which is a blood coin. For every kill of zombies, completion of a quest, unlocking an achievement, and so on, he can get blood coins.
The fourth one is the Summon Forces. It works similarly to Shop Tab but instead of materials, weapons, or goods, Advik can buy a "living being". However, instead of blood coins, Soul is used for the transaction.
The souls are the essence of every living being, they can be found in humans, animals, and even zombies. The only way to get souls is to take them from a living being by killing them.
The conversion goes like this.
[INFANTRY:
5 Souls = 1 Infantry
5 souls = 1 Medic
5 souls = 1 Scout
7 souls = 1 Sniper
7 souls = 1 Commando
9 souls = 1 Engineer
9 souls = Pilot
15 Souls= 1 Special Forces
55 souls = 1 General

The fifth one is Mission Tab. This is where he can see available quests, special quests, ongoing quests, and the rewards upon completion.
The sixth one is the Fortune Wheel tab. Similar to games, most notably mobile games. The Fortune Wheel is where can test his luck. He can win Souls, Blood Coins, Items, etc. To spin the wheel, a special ticket is required. One special ticket is credited every 1st of the month.
The seventh one is Daily Rewards. Claim daily items to aid in his survival.
The eighth one is the Skills tab. This is the tab where he can learn new skills and check the current skill he has. For now, he has this skills called Weapon's proficiency, Melee Proficiency, Driving Proficiency. which is at level 1. It's probably a complementary skills the system gave him so that he could shoot firearms, use knives and drive at least a bike or car.
Then ninth one is Zombie Encounter. This is tab where he can check information about zombies that he encountered in journey.
Setting all that aside, Advik breathed a sigh of hope, to receive an overpowered system. Seven billion people on the planet yet he's the one who got it. Too much for Chosen One.
[Current Quest: Kill 50 zombies.]
[Completion Reward: 100 Souls, 40000 Blood Coins.]
He stared at the screen blankly. What seems to be an easy quest yields such an absurd reward?!
"WTF!" Advik gasped. It was indeed an insane amount.
Now that he had a goal to achieve, he grabbed the Glock 17 and open the door. Then Glock 17, which only has an effective range of 60 meters. He can only shoot down zombies that are they stepped out into the corridor. The flickering lights created an eerie atmosphere. Then he moved silently, then he tightly hold the pistol in his hand, the pistol was at the ready to kill zombies, as they reached for the emergency exit. Then he silently open the door, then he reach the down floor, 15th floor.
Since he's on the 15th floor, this floor was filed with zombies.
19 rounds, 5 additional mags. That gives him 114 rounds. It's more than enough.
Bang...Bang...Bang...
A brief ear-splitting noise rang in Advik's ears as he consecutively pulled the trigger of his pistol, shooting down zombies who are front of him with their hands held up high. Some zombies jumped on their fellows while the others kept piling up corpses one after the other.
It was like a never-ending wave of suicidal maniacs who is so keen on killing him.
Unfortunately for them, he has the safe ground they didn't see him.
Luckily, the rain that had started, the rain been going on for an hour hadn't yet subsided. Which seemed to be overwhelming the senses of the zombies. If it weren't not raining, then all the zombies present on the floor would definitely go after him because of noise.
While shooting at them, Advik analyzed their behavior, using movies and drama series as references.
If he were to compare the behavior of the zombies in front of him, it would be similar to World War Z or Walking Dead.
If that was the case, then getting their attention is tantamount to committing suicide.
Advik pressed his thumb onto the magazine release button. He is down to the last two mags.
[Zombies killed: 35/50]
Killing them is harder than he anticipated. Even when he fired multiple times on the zombie's body, they still kept going. The only surefire way of killing the zombies were shooting them in the head, which guaranteed swift kill.
Reloading the Glock 17 with a new mag, Advik was gone to inside house, then close the door, then he looked around the house.
Knowing there is no zombies here, he sat on sofa, and take bottle from system, and emptied it.
Then he find torch on this house, knowing that he need to kill zombies, he take a long breath then slowly opened door, and poke his head, and saw right and left to knowing the no zombies there.
Then his way to stairs to next floor.
