Chereads / Demon in the Post-Apocalyptic world / Chapter 2 - The First Wave

Chapter 2 - The First Wave

Sun Han stood in the barren wasteland, the holographic screen still floating in front of him. He could see others scattered across the landscape, all looking as confused and frightened as he felt. The desolate world was eerily quiet, the only sound being the howling wind that swept across the cracked earth.

Suddenly, a system prompt appeared in front of him, the letters glowing ominously:

"Wave 1 begins now. 1000 mutated beasts incoming."

Sun Han's heart pounded in his chest as he looked up at the sky. Far off in the distance, he saw what appeared to be streaks of light, like falling stars or meteorites, hurtling towards the ground. The lights grew larger and brighter, moving at an alarming speed. One of the meteorites landed near him with a deafening crash, sending a shockwave that knocked him off his feet.

He scrambled to his feet, dirt and debris flying everywhere. His eyes widened in horror as the dust began to settle, revealing a grotesque creature emerging from the crater. It was a dog, but not like any dog he had ever seen. It had three heads, each one snarling and baring razor-sharp teeth. Its eyes glowed a sickly yellow, and in its chest, there was a pulsating blue core, radiating an eerie light.

The beast's heads snapped in unison, all three pairs of eyes locking onto Sun Han. Without warning, the mutated dog lunged at him, moving with terrifying speed. Sun Han barely had time to react, diving to the side as the creature's claws raked the ground where he had been standing.

He scrambled to his feet, his heart racing. The beast growled, saliva dripping from its mouths as it prepared to attack again. Sun Han looked around desperately, spotting a large rock nearby. He grabbed it and hurled it at the creature, but it barely flinched. The rock struck one of the heads, causing it to shake off the impact as if it were nothing.

Realizing he needed to aim for the core, Sun Han steeled himself. The mutated dog charged again, and this time, he sidestepped at the last moment, driving his fist into the blue core. The beast howled in pain, the core flickering but not shattering. The creature whipped around, one of its heads biting into Sun Han's arm. He screamed in agony, but he didn't let go. Summoning all his strength, he twisted his body and struck the core again, harder this time.

With a sickening crunch, the blue core shattered. The beast let out a final, ear-splitting screech before collapsing to the ground, its three heads slumping lifelessly. Sun Han fell to his knees, panting heavily. His arm throbbed with pain, blood dripping from the wound.

As he tried to catch his breath, another system prompt appeared in front of him:

"Congratulations! You have Killed level 2 teir 0 Mutated beast and leveled up to Level 1."

"You have obtained 5 gold coin."

Sun Han suddenly felt a new strength enter his body

The screen shimmered, revealing a spinning wheel with various icons. Sun Han watched in awe as the wheel spun rapidly before slowing down and landing on a skill icon.

"You have received a new skill: Cold Hearted."

He felt a strange sensation wash over him, a cool, calming feeling that seemed to numb the pain in his arm and clear his mind. He could feel the new skill integrating into his body, making him more resilient, less susceptible to fear and panic.

Before he could fully comprehend the changes, another prompt appeared:

"You are ranked No. 1 in your continent."

Sun Han stared at the message in disbelief. He had barely survived his first encounter, and now he was ranked the highest among all the survivors on the continent.
