Looking at the floating transparent blue screen Oliver only had more questions.
(I know I have read novels about this, but seeing one in real life is something else,) Oliver through reaching his hand out
"But that makes me curious...what really happened here? Who else has a system? What are the limitations?" Pushing those questions aside for now Oliver tried to open his system.
Following most novel characters with a system, he spoke the word system, and a new screen appeared before him with different information.

(Hmm seems very simple...but let's find someplace first it's starting to get dark) Oliver thought waving away the screen causing it to disappear.
Cleaning his knife on his jacket Oliver stood up and continued down the road for a while. Occasionally he ran into a single zombie wandering around. Sneaking up to them he was able to dispatch them without drawing attention to himself.
After a few hours, as the sun almost set, Oliver ducked into an apartment complex and made his way to the staircase.
Now inside a shelter, the cold that was hitting his body lowered allowing him to warm up slightly. With his gun and knife clenched he made his way up the staircase.
Passing the first three floors he did not run into anyone but as he made his way up to the fourth floor he saw a cluster of chairs and furniture pilled up behind the floor door.
(A barricade...maybe people... that can be problematic. I should hurry up and get to the roof) Oliver continued up the building.
Reaching the fifth floor he saw a fire axe sitting on the ground next to three zombies and a person with bite marks all over them.
With caution, he walked up to the bodied and stabbed each one in the head to make sure they were dead.
Luckily none of them moved and he didn't get a notification. Grabbing the axe he made his way to the roof of the building. Peaking through the roof door he did not see anyone and slowly made his way out.
As he was hit with a cold gust of wind he heard the sound of multiple groans coming from his left.
Looking to the side he saw a horde of eight zombies standing still all looking at the moon not moving an inch.
Seeing how they all just stood and watched the moon he decided to pick up a small rock. Throwing it and a wall across the roof he was surprised when none of the zombies moved
(W-what the hell?... It's like they didn't even hear it) Oliver through surprised
(So there is something about the moon that causes them to ignore everything)
Wanting to test it he threw another small pebble at the zombie furthest away. Like he suspected the zombie did not react to the pebble.
(Hmmm...when they stare at the moon they don't react anything...that's good to know," Oliver said sneaking up to the zombies
One by one he killed each zombie with his knife. None of them reacted to their comrade dieing before them.

As each notification rang out Oliver wiped off his knife and took anything useful he could find from the zombies but which was nothing.
With the room clear Oliver walked back into the apartment and made his way to the fifth floor. Walking inside the corridor he saw that it was empty and much cleaner than the rest of the apartment complex.
(I don't like this...this place seems taken care of) Oliver said moving down the hall.
Reaching the first room he gently twisted the handle but it was locked. Moving to the next one it was also looked at only when he got to the fourth door did he find an open door.
Moving past it he checked the last two doors and they were both unlocked. Spending the next twenty minutes looking through each open house he did not find any zombies or people allowing him to take a small breath of relief.
Going to the fourth room he grabbed a duffle bag and began collecting anything useful he could find from any in the room. It was not much he was able to find a bit of canned food and a few non-frozen water bottles. The most important thing he found was a first aid kit in the bathroom of the fifth apartment.
Going back to the fourth apartment he locked the door and made his way to the sixth apartment he walked inside and looked at the door. Going to the bedroom he carved out a small hole with his knife to look into the fifth apartment.
With a sigh, he sat down on the bed and stretched his body.
"God damn...today was...interesting to say the less," Oliver sighed
Placing his gun on his desk he began looking through his bag and taking inventory of his items
Right as he reached out there was a small flicker of light and the bag disappeared.
[All items registered in Inventory]
Hearing the message he opened his system and pressed on his inventory. Like he thought all the items were listed in his inventory organized.
[x1 Caned Beans]
[x2 Caned Peaches]
[x3 Minirale water]
[x2 frozen water]
Testing it out he reached for the water and with another small light the water appeared in his hand.
"Nice now I won't have to worry about things weighing me down. And I can keep weapons hidden if I have to," Oliver grinned
Taking out the can of peaches he drank the water and ate the peaches. With his hunger satisfied he closed his inventory and decided to open his status.
