"Oh, by the way, theres a zombie waiting at the door."
"Oh! Is this the new actions that can give me free spirit coins?" Poapasi said out loud.
Webnovel allows users to gain spirit coins through certain actions like the daily check-in, inviting a friend, voting with power stone/energy stone and watching a video. Even reading time is measured and gives away a number of spirit stones when a certain number of minutes is spent reading.
'Maybe, this Ye Qiu Mobile Assistant prompts you to do certain actions and gives spirit stones. What a novel way webnovel has done.' Poapasi thought as he walked to the door. He then added that maybe the new update would make him exercise and move a bit. Its no wonder considering the apps popularity. Maybe the parents of children who spent more time on reading novels instead of studying have send hundreds of emails forcing them to do something. Maybe…
Poapasi stopped in his tracks. He is now in front of the door and is looking through the door viewer. What he saw is Mr. Erik from the unit 5, two floors down. Normally he would open the door and talk to Erik but the blood Erik's clothes and face stopped him. What scared him the most is the large wound on Erik's neck as some animal had taken a large bite out of it.
Poapasi fell to the floor with a thud and that alerted the zombie. The zombie Erik made several growling noise as it moves around in the hallway. The growls attracted the other zombies. A few staggered along the stairs and arrived on the fifth floor hallway.
Hearing the zombies making a ruckus throughout the building snapped Poapasi from his dazed state. Slowly he stood up and looked again at the door viewer. Seeing Erik and two other zombies are walking aimlessly in the hallway, Poapasi quietly backed away.
"Need some help." Ye Qiu asked.
If Ye Qiu didn't speak then Poapasi might have forgotten all about him. Ye Qiu Mobile Assistant isnt supposed to be an artificial intelligence but simply an addition to the webnovel app. Somehow Ye Qiu acts as if alive. How can this be?
Poapasi took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. Zombies are real. Maybe that means other stuff are also real. He walked to the full length mirror and looked at his reflection. There is a small possibility that his body has changed. If that is true then he might have also gained some powers. Although the prospect of having powers should excite him, remembering the zombie in the hallway killed his excitement.
As he looked at the mirror he was shocked at what he saw. He did not notice it earlier but his skin tone is a little darker than what it used to be. Also his hair color became grey and the color of his eyes became silver. These changes can also be made by using contact lenses and wig but the shock he got came from the change of his physical body from the chubby guy that he is to a man that looks like a sports buff. The biggest change though is his height. The change in height from an average height of five feet, five inches to six feet, two inches unexpectedly escaped his notice. If not for the fact that he had to bend a little to see his face in the mirror then he still would not have notice that he became taller.
"Done admiring yourself yet?" Ye Qiu asked as he played around with an item with the shape of an umbrella. Even if Poapasi has not yet read the novel TKA he has seen the pictures and knows that the item that looks like an umbrella is Ye Qiu's weapon.
Poapasi walked to his phone and talked to Ye Qiu. "Is this a dream? Are you real?"
"Maybe this will help." Ye Qiu stared at Poapasi before changing shape from a cellular phone into a humanoid with a height of four inches. The change happened in a second and then Ye Qiu twirled his umbrella and jumped into Poapasi's shoulder. Then he added, "You were extremely lucky to receive a power. Unfortunately you were holding your phone when your body is changing. So instead of gaining a system. You got me."
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
