[ New World: Apocalyptic World
Review: A virus, a deadly and highly infectious strain, had swept across the globe like wildfire. It was killing any victims across its path, mutating anyone infected, and turning its victims into something else entirely. The world had become a battleground. It was survival of the fittest, and only the strongest would survive. ]
[ Does the host travel now? Yes/No ]
Seeing this prompt, Daniel clicks no; after all, he must prepare. After all, this is an apocalyptic world, and it didn't matter if he could get a skill.
It was still dangerous in another world, in an unknown environment where he could die.
It may have been a game before, but now it's a powerful tool where at any given time, he could die.
Having clicked [ no ] bottom for world travel, Daniel decided to get some necessary resources like water, food, and medicine.
He also wanted to get a weapon, but with his contacts and money, he could get none.
Daniel also thought of getting a sword or something of the like, but he wasn't proficient or knowledgeable about the weapon, so he decided to go empty-handed.
If he got into some danger, he could just run and teleport back.
After a few hours, Daniel got everything that he needed, so he decided that now it was time to travel through another world.
"System lets travel through the apocalyptic world."
[ traveling through…. ]
Suddenly Daniel started feeling like he was being twisted by a tremendous amount of force trying to rip apart Daniel.
Daniel started to see his vision twisting and his senses dull, and he was confused because of the twist.
[ Travel Through is completed! Welcome host to the apocalyptic World ]
Like a miracle, the angelic voice of the system has been delivered into his ears.
His senses and vision went back to normal as if nothing had ever happened.
After coming back to his senses, the first thing Daniel saw was a blood-stained wall and floor, a few clean white bones, some with a bit of meat left, chairs all over the floor, and a few broken desks with signs of aging.
The first thing that Daniel notices is that the place that he spawns is an office floor. He doesn't know if it is a company office floor in a big building or a first to third-floor office building.
But he doesn't know. There is not a single window to check where he's at.
Not wanting to waste time and put himself in danger, Daniel decided to use his skill.
" Use [Skill Choice ] "
[ Skill Choice is being used ]
[ Generating choices ]
[ Choice one: Cowards Might: [ increase the presence hiding for enemy and mobs by crouching. ]
Choice two: Last Struggle: [ increase strength, speed, endurance, and intelligence by x5 for 6 minutes by depleting life force resulting in death. ]
Choice three: Ghoul's Body:
Effect 1: [ passively increase strength, speed, endurance, and intelligence by x3 times. ]
Effect 2: [ any entity that drinks the blood of Ghoul's Body gets an x19 time boost in healing. ]
Effect 3: [ able to create a weapon-like extension from the back of the tailbone using blood. ]
Effect 4: [ healing rate is increased by x30 times the speed. ] ]
Seeing these options, Daniel was perplexed at the three options that the skill gave him because most could help him survive the apocalypse without making any effort.
He doesn't know if the choice where because of the world or if it was because of luck.
One doesn't need to think twice about which skill one will choose in the apocalypse; after all, there is only one skill that will help anyone survive if they have it.
And that is Ghoul's Body skill because it is like having cheat mode in a game.
The coward's might skill is not helpful in the apocalypse because it can help you hide and survive at the beginning of the apocalypse, but in the long run, it is not.
With the skill, you can only hide while you crouch, but it doesn't give you a boost or anything of the sort.
The last struggle is the worst for the apocalypse because, at any given time that you are in danger and use the last struggle, you will still perish in the end after using all your life energy.
Daniel decided after only glancing at the choices once.
" I choose skill number 3."
After choosing the Ghouls Body skill, Daniel felt a warm current rushing into his body, traveling through every single vein and changing the cell that makes up his blood.
In the process, the warm current strengthens his body and senses, making him stronger and faster.
And he also felt it, the particular blood flowing through him, and if he felt like it, he could create a tail-like weapon.
Feeling his newfound strength, Daniel decided it was time to explore and see this new world.
Daniel started to look around for anything in the office, one to see if he could find an exit and two to see if he could gather any valuables.
After all, he may need the resources to increase the territory level, but he still needs money to survive in his world.
After looking around for a while, Daniel didn't find anything of value, or everything he saw was damaged, or he didn't know what it was.
In the end, Daniel had to give up on finding any valuables and head to the exit of the building.
On the street, an exit door opens, and from it, Daniel comes out.
Looking at the dilapidated building and cars and all the blood and organs on the street, Daniel couldn't imagine what was happening at the beginning of the apocalypse to make the street like that.
Noticing an alley, Daniel decides to walk into it to prevent finding a group of zombies and not having the ability to decide on this situation.
Daniel got into the alley, and abruptly Daniel heard something growling, and it was getting near.
When Daniel turns to the place where the sounds come from, he sees a zombie.
With an eye sticking out of his eye socket, with half his mandibular torn, and with a slow and dragging movement plus its putrefactive body, Daniel almost threw up.
It was the first time Daniel had seen something so disgusting, but he had to get accustomed to the sight of zombies.
Daniel decided to kill it, thinking of one of the effects of the skill of Ghoul's Body. He felt his body, and his senses told him that if he wanted, he could take out a tail-like weapon made of blood and mold it however he wanted.
Daniel felt something start coming out of his body, but at the same time, something was filling back up, which was his blood.
Behind Daniel, there were two big tails made of blood, and they were swinging left to right as if they had life.
Daniel sees the zombie getting nearer, and he uses his tail made of blood to make a hole in the heart of the zombie.
After seeing that the zombie had a big hole in his heart but could still move, Daniel had no choice but to penetrate the head of the zombie.
Then a plop sound came; it was the body of the zombie.
Confirming that the only way to kill the zombies was to perforate their heads, Daniel shook his head, thinking how the movies sometimes are in the right in some things.
When Daniel was least expecting it, the system made a Ding sound.
[ Ding, the Host kills a zombie, the zombie drop…. ]
