《Stuck in a zombie world with an OP shop》Chapter 12
Advertisement
At the closing of the day, Ryan climbs to the top of the manhole. Taking a glance at his credits, he grins at the number, 10224. While he could kill a zombie every three seconds, it took some time for them to gather. Ryan silently thanked whatever God had given him this location, and he reaches the top.
Laying under the van, on the right side, Ryan purchases a concrete block for 15 credits. 'Cheep,' He thinks, and the block fills most of the distance between the van bottom and the pavement. Ryan pushes the block to the tire, then buys another one. After ten concrete blocks, the distance between the wheels on the right side has been filled. With four blocks for the front wheels and four blocks for the rear wheels, Ryan has the entire area blocked off.
The entire creation only costs 270 credits and has given Ryan a safe place to sleep for the night. For 400 credits, Ryan buys a pillow. After eating a steak dinner for 215 credits and throwing the trash into the manhole, Ryan goes to sleep.
The next morning, Ryan wakes up and repeats the cycle of killing zombies and eating food. To speed the process, Ryan bought the skill Spears four times for 1200 credits, raising his current level to Spears 5. To test out the pistol, Ryan bought electronic earplugs for a whopping 3200 credits, and six .22 LR bullets for 6 credits.
The action of the pistol still worked, so Ryan had high hopes for the gun not exploding in his hand. Even thought he wanted to test the gun, he wasn't going to fire it inside the manhole or inside his secure base. Instead, Ryan placed the gun inside the inner pocket of his jacket and went back inside the manhole. If another person tried to attack him, Ryan would use the gun in a cramped location, but not otherwise.

At lunch time, Ryan climbed the ladder up and then went onto the roof of the van. There, he had a great vantage point over the street. A few zombies had gathered, so Ryan felt it would be a good time to test the gun.
The first shot, Ryan aims it at a zombie approximately sixty feet away. He turns on the earplugs and holds the gun with both hands, then fires. The gunshot echoes through the city, and the bullet misses. 'Damn,' Ryan thinks, and he buys ten levels of Shooting for 3000 credits. At his next shot, the head of the targeted zombie explodes.
After four more shots, Ryan has killed four more zombies. To reload, Ryan buys a high table for 400 credits, and ten bullets for 10 credits. Placing the pistol on the table, Ryan loads the magazine with all ten bullets and then places it back inside the pistol.
A few minutes later, Ryan has killed all the nearby zombies. The credits earned was enough to pay for the bullets, but not the skill levels he bought. However, if the pistol would help when fighting hostile humans, the cost of three thousand credits would be well worth it.
Ryan washes his hands with a glass of water and places the gun inside his jacket. Leaving the table on top of the van, he returns to the manhole and resumes the killing of zombies.
At the end of the day, Ryan sleeps under the van. He's gained a large sum of credits for the day's zombie killing, but most went to skills and the earplugs. Ryan wonders what the battery life on the earplugs is, but they were only on for a few minutes, so he thinks they will last a while longer. Even if they need to be replaced every day, the cost would only be a few dozen credits for each battery.

The watcher of universe and stuff.
The most devastating thing to an eternal being must be boredom. If nothing can change you, how can you yourself change? Sometimes you have to learn that the hard way. I should point out that there are multiple lead characters and they will all have their own personalities and motivations. While the story will focus more on our MC Trey, you can expect multiple POV switches. If you do not like POV switches, this might not be for you. My first book. If anyone will ever read this, be so kind as to leave a comment. Even, if all you say is an insult. As long as I can improve this work by your comment, it's all fine. One thing’s for sure. I will keep writing as if my reader can handle curse words without curling into a little ball and repeatedly saying: "Leave my safe-space alone, you monster". Therefore, you can expect some profanity.
