Ahhh man what the heck is wrong with me… the pain is unb...
✻ Warning: Severe brain damage detected. (says a young female voice)
'Who are you?'
What's with this floating panel?
✻ Do you wish to proceed?
'Yes. I mean no I…'
He passes out from the pain.
[System updated: Lengendary body acquired]
Skills: Evolve rank E acquired, Parasite rank E acquired.
(Waking up)
Mhhh… what happened?
I feel as if I've crossed the border. (Does anyone get this reference?)
Anyhow, I am happy the headache is finally over!
Little did he know that the problems were just about to start. Blinded by the light he glances through the room only to fall on his own reflection in a broken mirror.
'A... a... a Zombie!'
He passes out from fear.

✻ Warning: Your hunger level is approaching à 100% you have 2 minutes to feed yourself.
'Two minutes to eat or what? I'll lose consciousness as my soul slowly fades into the abyss and suffer for eternity (He says mockingly)?'
✻Exactly.
[100 seconds remaining...]
Holy shit this can't be!
Where can I possibly find food?
I mean where am I… is this hospital? Why is there so much rubble everywhere?
But wait, why was I in a hospital in the first place?
[75 seconds...]
Dammit, I don't have time for this!
In a panic, he scans the room a second time only to find...
'Chips! Right there on the top shelf.'
He tries to lift his arms.
✻ Due to 87% body damage, your arms are currently impaired/unusable.
'I am a joke to you?'
✻ Obviously.
[63 seconds...]
Shit, I can't lose any more time. What is that over there?
He stares.
Ewww a squash lab rat.
'I am telling you voice lady there is no way I am eating that!'
[Attention 1-minute remaining]
✻ Here is a 1-second taste of the abyss.
That second in the abyss became the longest and most painful second of his life. It tortured him as nothing had ever done before. It was more painful than cutting really strong onions. It was longer than a second listening to his wife's complaints. To be fair, it was even worse than planking (That says a lot in itself).
[59 seconds...]
✻ Shall I give you a second taste of the abyss?
'Nope! A rat sounds delicious thank you very much.'
Man, I want to run towards it, but my body is so slow.
[-69% speed due to severed ankle]
I guess slow and steady wins the race, huh huh huh.
But, forget my ankle and would someone tell me what is wrong with my eye?
[-50% vision due to a missing eyeball]
Ohhh... that explains a lot somebody simply lost it I presume. I swear I'll be writing a bad review on this hospital when I get out of here.
'One-star rating: they lost one of my eyeballs, but more importantly: the food is HOR-RI-BLE.'
Anyhow, I am almost there.
[30 seconds…]
And voilà ! All that is left is to grab it.
'Wait a minute!'
(Flashback: Due to 87% body damage, your arms are currently impaired/unusable.)
I can't use my arms!
[15 seconds before the abyss…]
How am I supposed to do this?!?
[10 seconds before the abyssssssssss…]
'So annoying!'
Ok, I guess I'll just aim for the dead rat with my mouth.
Well here goes nothing
He falls flat on his face, but luckily for him, the aim was just right.
✻ Congratulations! Your hunger issue and the abysssssss (he shivers) are now further away.

'I swear I don't have a single clue what is happening to me right now, but I'll play with you Alexa (looks towards the ceiling). Yea that is right, I just gave you a name.'
'Can you hear me?'
Selective hearing, eh? Anyway, that all stats bonus sounds amazing, but I can't afford to go hungry again. Slow digestion it is!
[Slow digestion Rank E acquired]
Must I admit, that rat wasn't too bad. I guess eating sure tastes better when you're hungry. That being said, now what? My arms won't...
[Body damage 87% -> 86%]
Ohhhh! Is that the recovery bonus after every meal? Maybe if I eat enough, I'll get my arms to recover?
Talking about food! What do I see, well half see there...
Another rat!
Flat on his chest and without the usage of his upper body. He successfully rolls himself towards the objective.
This one tastes kind of different. It has more of a BBQ flavour.
Anyway, there's another one.
And another one.
And another one!
Wow, they really went flying everywhere. There must have been an explosion of some sort.
[Body damage 86% -> 85%]
He kept on going until no rats could be found.

[Body damage 50%]
My arms! I can feel them!
He tries to get back up. Despite the struggle, he ends up managing.

Well, that's a bummer. They will probably die from my smell long before that anyway. I wonder if they have showers around here?

I guess that would explain why I didn't get to eat more of that BBQ one.

Eye of the devil ???

I can't see what they do, but I clearly know which one is the best.
