"Oh shi!!!"yelled Xian as the floor gave out beneath him.
The tower collapsed
'CRASH! BWONGG!'
"cough cough ughh! fugn! son of a! uhhh!" wailed Xian as he held his left leg not only did he twist his ankle but a jagged hand sized piece of wood was stabbed into his thigh!
"ughh! ok gotta get to the guard house so I can find out how to get to my family"
that's when he realized the bell was still rolling!
The bell fell crashed through the floor and pushed the first bell towards town it was rolling down the stairs as he was thinking this
'THUNG! THUNG! THUNG!'
The bell rang every time it fell
and the next thing he heard was the same as when he pushed the first bell
'SQELCHING! SMASH! SQUASH!'
and then

this went on for 7 minutes then 'bing*'
the screens popped up and said congratulations on reaching level 2.
5 skill points awarded with 2 skill tree points
"what's level 2? and skill points? what's a skill tree?"questioned Xian but then he realized his leg stoped hurting he looked down the bleeding stopped his ankle was fixed and the pice of wood was missing too! that's when he got even more curious and started going through his system again he went to the stats screen then noticed that once he thought of how to increase his intelligence skill it suddenly went up 1 making it 2 and a number at the top of the screen went down to 4 then like a cool wave washing over his mind things started seeming simpler to under stand oh so those must be my skill points so he then invested 2 into strength and 1 into intelligence, endurance, and perception he then looked at his stats

"I wonder how changing these numbers will affect me overall I mean I don't fell all that different?"said Xian as he stood up then as he looks around he notices how much slower the world was now it was only a fraction but was still noticeable and as he looked at his arms he noticed that his muscle definition increased dramatically "oh I guess they do have an affect" said Xian with a surprised look on his face "ok so now I should check what that d@mn bell did" Xian said while picking up his sword.
as he neared the stairs he was surprised by the gorey sight that greeted him smashed zombies down every 5 or 6 steps with organs and blood trailed all the way down and a huge mass of smashed corpses at the bottom with around 37 more zombies stuck behind it trying to push through it to get up the stairs.
'so that ways not an option' thought Xian as he looked for a new route then he remembered 'oh yah there was another stair case at the next tower I might be able to meat another guard there! but which direction to go the guard house is straight from here so both routes are the same distance but to the left I got the market and the right is the slums there are more people in the market so could be dangerous even though the roads are wider but the slums will be by far safer!'
Xian then decided to go to the slums guard tower.
15 minutes later he arrived at the tower and looked around and he seen someone in the tower! "Hey! are you up there we need to get to the guard house now and report what's happening!" yelled Xian praying to the gods that this guard was alive "why! what's happening?!" yelled down a fellow guard 'oh thank the gods' though Xian "there is some sort of outbreak, curse or whatever it is and the dead are eating people we need to go and report the area was crowded at the east tower and I don't dare to go to the markets guard tower!" the guard shot up straight and nocked over a bottle of wine he must have been drinking on the job "wait there I'll be down in a jiffy I'm not entirely convinced because that priest ranted about this for weeks and isn't a very funny joke but if your serious then were screwed according to his rantings" after 30 seconds a man in about his 30s came down the latter he had short brown hair and blue eyes with a bushy mustache and beard he was around five eight with broad shoulders with a low quality steel sword at his waist "ok lets go report this before it gets worse because if we lost the market then that means there are over 70 or 90 of the undead we gotta get the citizens to safety and build barricades so we can have a chance of surviving oh and I'm Jin wang by the way so let's get moving" 'god I hope this kid is just crazy because how are we gonna survive without access to the farms we'd need a month to just clear out the city!' thought Jin
they then made there way to the slums they were about to get to the street of the guard house when they heard "Arughhh!" and sluggishly jogging twords them was a man who had half his organs torn out and were seen hanging from a window where a woman was chewing on the other end.
Jin was flabbergasted he didn't know what was happening or what those things were except that they use to be people was the priest right about the end of the world! if so then that would mean that there must be something special about Xian then out of no where Xian pulls out his sword seemingly from thin air then he rushed forwards and with a single swing of his blade the zombie isn't just sent flying but is split from the left hip to it's right shoulder one of it's arm left it still draged it's self forwards but then Xian's saber came down loping off its head...
