"No" "No" "No" "No" "No" "Nooooo!!!"
"Why"
"God, why are you doing this to me!!!??"
"Hic" "Hic"
I no longer had a family. Before me lay the bodies of my mother and sister, bitten and desecrated.
"I'm sorry mom...sister...it's all my fault"
"If only I had stopped acting like a child I could have saved you"
"fuck" "fuck" "fuck" "fuck" "fuck"
Tears were constantly streaming from my eyes. If I had just once not rested but kept working, I would have reached them before the zombies.
"baseball bat"
20 minutes later I was sitting next to the bodies of my family and 4 piles of crushed meat and bones.
"I will kill" "I will kill every last one" "And I will create a world that is worthy of you" - I promised myself, looking at my mother.

"Let's go"
Before I left the forest I did some quick shopping.
"Buy two additional skill slots, Survival Instinct and Reduced Sleep Needs"
[Shop] [AP 23 (143 - 120)]
"Buy 10 magazines"
[Shop] [AP 3 (23 - 20)]
[Survival Instinct 1/100] (+) - Ability to sense any danger (evil intentions, zombie attack, melee attack, incoming projectile, etc.) towards the person with the skill. Current range 10m.
[Reduced Sleep Needs 1/7] (+) - Reduces the amount of sleep required to regenerate the body. Each level shortens the sleep time needed to regenerate by 1 hour. Current required time to regenerate 7 hours.
"Hmm, that's better"
"Now I need to upgrade Reduced Sleep Requirement to only sleep 1 hour" - Let's finally check how much it costs to upgrade the skill.
[Reduced sleep requirement 1/7] (+) [80 Ap]
"I hope the price increases by 40, otherwise there won't be enough zombies," I thought with a bloodthirsty smile.
"Let's go exterminate these bastards," I muttered as I left the forest.
Looking at the parking lot full of zombies I took the gun in my hand and started shooting. Zombies fell one by one and the points kept increasing.
"Too slow..." - I killed about 200 zombies in 10 minutes.
"Maybe I should blow up the entire station..?" - let's first look at how much fuel costs.
[Energy resources]
[1 canister of petrol (10 litres): 5 points]
[1 gas cylinder: 10 points]
[1 lighter: 1 point]
[1 box of matches: 1 point]
[1 fuel heater: 20 points]
[1 Portable solar panel S/M/X/XL: 20/40/80/160 points]
[1 Gas Stove: 40 points]
[1 Oil Lamp: 10 points]
[1 Rechargeable Battery: 50 points]
[1 Fuel canister ...X/XXL/XXXL: .../5/25/50]
[...]
"We can blow up the station" - Even though fuel is very expensive, I don't have to blow up everything I have. Currently, 5,000 liters should be enough for me. After all, there are hundreds of thousands of stations in the world.
[The XXXL canister has a capacity of 10,000 liters] - so let's buy it.
[Buy a fuel can in size XXXL]
[Shop] [AP 149[174-25]
"Let's check the cars too, maybe there'll be something useful" - I started looking into each car for useful things. Wandering from car to car I reached my...
I slowly opened the door. There were bags of clothes for a week. I went to the back seat where I found my mother's purse. Opening it I pulled out my wallet and opened it. Inside were our family photos.
"If only I was faster.!" I muttered with bloodshot eyes. I pulled out the photos and put them in my pocket.
"Uhhh" - searching the next cars I came to a black Skoda. Here came my surprise. Inside was a girl of about 19-20 years old. Thanks to my increased concentration ability I could hear her sobbing. I slowly knocked on the door but didn't put the weapon away. Even though she looked defenseless it's always worth being careful.
Our eyes met. She had chestnut hair, dark eyebrows, blue eyes, a small nose, and tempting lips.
"Ughh my hormones.." - we looked into each other's eyes and then there was silence...
"Open the door," I said, still looking at her. She looked at me for a moment, then decided to open the door.
"Is everything okay..?" I asked her when the door opened.
I didn't get a response. She kept looking at me as tears flowed from her eyes even though she was no longer sobbing.
So I repeated my question trying to get her attention but still received no answer.
"Where are your parents?" - this time she reacted. Tears began to flow faster from her eyes.
"H-they, h-they, h-they became corpses.." - She answered me trying to hold back her tears but nothing helped.
"What's your name"
"S-samanta" dsds
"Okay Samantha, how long have you been here alone?"
"W-we arrived here at 9 am, n-don't know how long I was in the c-car.."
"Okay, calm down," I said rather gruffly as she began to panic more and more. I don't want all the zombies to descend on me and kill the only normal person here besides me.
"I'm Mark. I plan on blowing up this gas station. I'd advise you to leave. If you want, I can give you some food and drink" - even if she's a beautiful woman and the only person I can talk to, I won't be a nanny. I have to kill all the zombies in the world so I can create a world worthy of my family's life.
"..."
"C-can I go with t-you.?" - she asked, holding back tears and looking at me with hope.
"No, I will not risk my life or yours. I am not a nanny. As I said before, I will give you enough food and water for a month. Go to a village, gather food, water and the necessary items for life and try to survive until this is over."
"Will it ever end?" Samantha asked, looking at me this time without stuttering and with great hope. I felt as if two miniature suns were looking at me.
"Will it end? Yes, but not naturally"
"W-won't end naturally?"
"Speculating that the zombie virus takes over a person's body after death. Although a human body takes about 8-12 months to decompose to a point where it's basically just skin and bones, we don't know if the zombie virus affects them genetically."
"So in short, it is possible that the apocalypse will end naturally, but it will take at least several dozen years until people invent a vaccine for this virus. Zombies should become weaker after some time, unless, as I mentioned earlier, the virus changes them genetically. It is not known what its origin is."
"If he is able to use the body of a corpse to do something based on photosynthesis, it means that the strength of the zombie will never decrease and may even increase"
"Then why did you say I should w-wait until the end of the apocalypse?"
Heh
"Because I'll kill all the zombies." I replied with a fully determined look on my face. This surprised her.
"W-Why do you want to kill all the zombies?"
I was silent for a moment
"...To create a world worthy of my family's life!" Her eyes widened as if she understood something. A moment later she began to look at me with what felt like, I don't know, sympathy? And also kinship.
"Please take me with you!"
"Like I said before, no-"
"I won't be a burden to you, I'll help you in any way I can. I can kill zombies, cook, wash your clothes. I'll do everything, just please take me with you."
*whisper*
"I-I don't want to be alone again," she mumbled, looking at me. (Ehhhh women)
"So you're saying you'll be useful." I said, looking at her from top to bottom.
"Tak"
"And you will listen to my every command?" I asked once again, looking at her figure with a "fiery" gaze.
"Y-yes.." - I looked away after her answer. Despite her beauty, I'm sure I won't be willing to get close physically or emotionally for a while.
"Then kill that zombie" - I pointed at the corpse that started approaching us
