While Fox was absorbing the new knowledge, an arrow came and hit him in the back of the head. With the force he fell to the ground.
"Fox!! Enemy attack" Said Mark as he got up and turned. When he saw from where the arrow came from, it was too late. Another arrow was coming his way.
"Push!" The arrow hit him right in the face.
"Boom!" Mark fell to the ground on his back… Dead.
"Ahahahahahahahahaha, you guys really believed in my story. Finally a place I can hunt other people without risking being arrested or even dying. Uhm? The undead are still here? But they aren't hostile, so whatever, I have no idea how magic works. Hahahaha" While walking in Marks direction, Johnny laughed.
After checking for anything useful in Mark, Johnny moved in Fox direction.
Getting close to Fox, he proceeded to turn Fox."I think his watch was where he placed the itens. That guy was loade…"
"Pa! Pa! Pa!"
Johnny couldn't believe what was happening. When he turned Fox, he was holding his "Walther P99" and shoot him 3 times. Johnny looked down and saw 3 blood holes in his chest.
"How?" Asked him while blood came out of his mouth.
While getting up Fox said "I already told you that arrow will never win against bullets.And this armor was made for bullets protection"
"Pa!" Fox Shot him in the head.
Johnny fell to the ground dead, blood spurting from all his holes, and a light brown liquid coming from his pants.
Fox jogged close to Mark and checking his vitals. The first aid class he took in university was finally useful. No heart signal.
"Shit Mark! Come on."
"Wait I might have something." He started to recall the new knowledge he received, "thaumatology" gave him a general idea of magic.
"There is a way, resurrection magic. After the body does the soul leaves it and go to the cycle of reincarnation. However this cycle takes many years, as the soul revives all his memory and forget about then. I still have time to bring him back. In the knowledge the system gave me, there was reports of people losing part of his memories after some years before been revived, so it must be true."
Fox placed mark in his storage watch, and proceed to analyse the after match. When he calmed down, he finally notice a message.
"Achievement unlocked, Player killer 1, 200 points"
"For killing Johnny you received 10% of his points, 272 points."
"So they want us to kill each other? We will see about that." He wondered
He still had 2 skeletons and 2 orcs. But he had the body of Johnny, and the rest of the Axeman.
"I think I remember seeing something about repairing an undead body and making him a ghoul. Ghouls are undead with intellect, they retain the same level of intelligence of there races. But if its a animal race, the intellect increase a little, making it easier for then to obey orders, but they still can't communicate. So to make ghouls we need…"
"Blaaaa!" When he remembered the process to make ghouls he puked.
"Shit, the games where I could be a necromancer never told me about this!! If I want to make them, I will need to remove some organs and place some magic circles inside them. I don't know how graveward keepers can do there job professionally. I salute them now, they have big guts and strong stomachs..."
"Blaaaa!"
After placing Mark and Johnny and the two halves of Axeman in his "bag", Fox looked for an exit.
It was then that he notice that the corridor that they came from was open. He proceeded through it, and took the exit direction in the intersection.
Fox soon found end of the corridor and the exit of the dungeon. Just like the other room, there was a barrier at the door location.
He ordered his undeads to go through first, since he might lose then if he were the first.
After crossing, he again arrived at the white room. Looking up he saw:
Player: Fox
Points: 679
Status: Tutorial part 2, completed
After reading it the status changed.
Player: Fox
Points: 679
Status: First survival
Details: The player will need to survive for 7 days in a hostile and undead infested, earthlike Woodlands.
"I always loved to watch survival shows, documentaries and play survival games. Also about how to craft many things like simples constructions, to more complex things, like concrete, gunpowder, analogic and automatic guns. Not that I expecting to transmigrate to another non-technologically advanced world(For sure)
So I already have the knowledge I need, even more now with "Herb lore" skill, let's see what i can take to complement it.
"Recover energy" spell, intermediary level, 40 points.

I have enough points for "resurrection" spell, the only problem is stamina. IT'S A FU***NG 200 POINTS OF STAMINA to cast. I can only do that with a ritual, extracting energy from many people, the subjects must be willing or unconscious. That will be hard for now. Sorry Mark you will have to wait.

Works like "Flight" Spell, but subject moves faster.
"Teleport" spell, intermediary level, 40 points
"Blink" spell, intermediary level, 40 points
The caster can teleport away from an attack instantaneously.
"Teste food" spell, basic level, 20 points

"Prepare game" spell, intermediary level, 40 points

Ok, that's a lot of magic, but it must cover almost all my needs. I still have 19 points. I will buy 3 more grenades for 1 point.
He also started the procedures to turn the axeman and Johnny into a ghoul. However since he didn't eat anything recently he had nothing to puke, which helped him.
He had to sacrifice both the skeletons and the orcs, but he now had 2 servants who could help him in many ways. And the best part? They had a special seal on them, which allowed him to send then to another dimension, like a mages familiar, and call them back at will. Both of them had no memories about there past, including Johnny, however he kept all his skills from before his death.
Even through they obeyed him like slaves, they still had there own personalities. Axeman was a man of few words, he liked peace and silence. Fox still didn't know, but when Axeman decided to kill, he would become a killing machine.
Johnny was a more talkative guy, if you allowed he would never stop talking. Even Fox himself, who was a talkative guy, couldn't handle Johnny.
Ok, I'm done." His vision darkened and he woke up in his bedroom.
"Ok, i'm back again"
Today was a weekend day, so he decide to test some ipothesys he had about magic on earth.
The day moved on, as he tried many things and studied the new knowledge he received. However no matter what he did, he could not harness the power around him to cast spells.
It was finally bedtime, and like last time he was back to the "White room"

I will be posting Fox real character sheet soon as an extra chapter. As I said before, his character sheet is based on GURPS since its the system I used for the campaign. I will also use it to explain part of how the level system works for stamina reduction in cast and maintain and for other things like "Recover energy" spell.

The first 5 chapter were never really written, since Fox was only an NPC on the actual campaign, however some facts really happened in the tales.
The first time I wrote this fifth chapter, all 3 players had survived, however I had found it to simple minded.It was then that I remembered that in Fox tales, for his friends later, 1 player
