“Hello, I am guessing you guys are the Heroes of this camp yes?” A guy with army clothing asked, Jack then nod.

“Yo, I’m Jack, The one that looks like a priest is Lily, The other one with a mean look is Rose, and the last one with a huge Mace is Allie, She’s our leader,” Jack said as he handshake the guy hand.

The guy then stat to inspect us.

[ Leo Ferrell ]

[ Lv.44 ]

Looking at his level, It seems that he is not a normal army guy. “You are a Heroes correct? Is the Lightning one of your power? Or your only power?” I then asked,

He then laughs and nods, “Yes, I am. And do you guys know why are we come here yes? Oh, where is my manner, My name is Leo Ferrell, Call me Leo.” He then said.

Ignoring my question about his power.

“I am guessing that you are here to inspect our camp, yes?” Rose answer and keep inspecting him from down to the top.

“Yes yes, We need to make sure we send the right amount of the food supplies, and the populations of the survivors as well as the Heroes in the camps.” Leo answer as he snaps his finger and one of his underlings come with a paper and pen.

“We currently have 53 civilians survivors, and 13 police, As for Heroes? It’s only four of us..” Lily answer him, Leo then nods at her and continued writing the report.

I then look at his 4 of the car that is filled with a soldier that is level 5 till 8. Not a bad level as a normal human.

As back then, Lily, Rose and Jack level was actually, and sadly, were that too. And they got powers.

“Only four of you guys? Did you guys know that is rare to have two or three Heroes in one camp? Especially this small? Hah!” Leo said,

Lily then shake her head and hide her face once more as its redden.

“Alright, I already have the pieces of information I need.. Oh, and also, We see the zombies corpses outside the wall, Great job! Not only you guys can take out that many zombies but actually can lure the zombie away by it!” Leo said,

“What do you mean we lured it away?” I asked in confusion,

“Ah, you don’t know? The Zombie corpses release some kind of special fumes that normal Zombies hate. Oh, And it doesn’t really work with Mutant one,” He then nicely answer,

“Talking about Mutant Zombie, if you guys meet any mutant zombies, try to take the body and dissect it! They have this rock that is really valuable for us.. Just a secret from us Heroes, but that rock will be really important for your camp. As it will be the only form of money so you guys will be getting food. We government can’t keep giving you free food you know?” Leo said with a smirk and then left with his annoying car.

“Well, Fuck.”

. . .

“Ok, Call every police now.. And lock down the camp, Make sure all the civilian is all inside of the camp and no one is outside scavenging right now! Hurry,” I said as I walk toward the main building and sit in the meeting room that the Police forces make for emergency things.

“Why lockdown? We just need the police,” Jack asked stupidly and scratch his head. “Because if we took all the police to the meeting, Who do you think will guard or take care of them when the officer is gone?” I answer and scowl, he then just grin at me and apologize,

“Apologies accepted, Now, go get the police!”

After the civilians went situated, the police all come and we all sit in the chair.

“So you all know the Government people come yes?” I asked, The police all nods, “Good news is that we will get our supplies for food soon, bad news is that they hinted they will not give any more free foods in future,” I then drop the bomb,

All the police then went to hysteria, “Oh no, how can we survive then?!” one of them asked to no one,

“Listen first, But we four found a really good news from Leo, who is a Heroes from the Government base. They will start using this one rock as a form of payment for the food. And the rock can only be gained from the mutant zombies, So all we need is to hunt the zombies and who can dissect zombies. Try to collect any science teachers or anyone with a science degree that can do any dissections. Also, try to inform the civilian too, we can’t just let them in the dark about this news. It will be bad for them in the future,” I said, then they all nod.

“So, I know this will be a bad thing, but let’s try to stop searching for any more survivors, Why you asked? The base we are on is not that big and it will be overpopulated! So lets us try to increase the size of it first.. And maybe we can create a hut for the civilians, so they can stop living in the tent and have a proper house.” I said,

“But.. We can’t just stop searching for the survivors..” A police then answer,

“Yes we can, what if we got overpopulated like Allie said? We are not a Samaritan people who are all nice and kind, We also need to survive as well, We're human, where is your selfishness man? And we already have 53 people, that’s too many people that we need to track if some of them are lost while they scavenging..” Another police then refute,

“Agree with him, let’s try to increase the area first. And about the mutant monster, do you need our powers and guns to hunt it down Allie?” The police asked, I then ponder myself.

“Hmm, Maybe.. But bring Rosa, Lily, and Jack too, I can try to hunt down come of them alone, but those three can’t.” I said, not for arrogance but just the cold hard truth.

They all then nods,

. . .

“How’s your day?” James asked as he boiled a water, “Stressful, and since when we got that olden day stove?” I asked as I see the stove that is still using fire and gas. Still not sure how that thing worked, to be honest with me.

“These goods is for 6 cans food and 4 water bottle, we now actually can cook something,” James answer,

“But the smoke?” I asked, Then James laugh. “That’s what open the window is for!! We have gone to those olden day! We modern human need to survive by continued what our ancestor does!!” James answer.

“What?” I asked questions as I still don’t get the point he is trying to say, “He is just crazy about this new changed things, don’t mind him..” Gabe answer as he read a paper.

“And what is that paper?” I asked Gabe, “Oh, That’s like newspaper nowadays, It's a handwritten one instead of printed.” He then answers.

“How much?” I asked as I peek on the paper. “Only one candy per papers, Oh apparently one chocolate bars is cost 10 candy,” Keith answer as he comes with a hot coffee,

“Ok, by the way, any news? I heard that we got a lockdown just now, what’s up with that?” Keith asked as he sit on the sofa,

I then explain all the problem to the guys, they were all shocked but then recoil themselves as it is actually not fair for the government to give free foods each time all the bases need them, as that Government needs some to eat too anyway.

“Where're the kids?” I asked as I haven’t heard their screaming nor laughing the whole time, Which considering weird that I haven’t received a kiss from either of them.

“Eh? Someone build a school.. Each kid costs five candy each time they want to learn, In there they are thought about the basic knowledge. The school was open to some teachers,” James answer as he comes back with 3 coffee on the tray,

“Keith, you ain't getting it as you already have it, but here is for Gabe and Allie,” James said as he sip into his own coffee.

We nod in appreciation and enjoy the coffee, “So, Now that the currency will change into the stones thing?” James asked. I nod.

“My guessing is that, will it worth on how huge that is? I’m still not sure to be honest of myself, I’m here trying to use my logic.” I answer.

“Cool, now probably the time we stop being a lazy ass and hunt eh?” Keith said as he goes to the bedroom to search for his weapons.

. . .

“Ok, calm down.. Wait for it.. Now! Shoot!” I scream out then Keith, Gabe and James went into shooting frenzy, Looking at the health of the Mutant zombies I then laugh. I then channel [ Mana Bolt ] then headshot the zombies,

+4,500 Credits, +3 Medium Power rock, +2 Small Power rock.

“Whoop! That’s our seventh one! Let’s get the body into the trucks and let’s find another one,” I said, and look at the loots I gain. Apparently, I have been harvesting the rocks automatically from the system. But I am still unsure if there’s still some inside of the zombies.

Then we look at the sun, “It’s nearly dark.. Let’s stop the hunt and go back to the base. Night is always dangerous considering those Monsters roaming around freely and got powerful under the moonlight anyway,” Gabe said, We all nods and then drive away from the building.

Ignoring a red glint that have been spying us from the start.

. . .

“Fuck, my body hurt..” I mumble as I keep healing my body. The mutant has been pretty tiring to beat. The police officers has been listening to my concern back then and now they are apparently building more area for the camp.

The worker that work got paid cans food and water, so it's actually a good deal. The people too actually start to create more job opportunity for themselves. Like the school for example, or the newspaper. And now they even selling drawing for some chocolates.

“Mama! Today we learn about running! Ms. Bailey told us that running is also important and not only a torture to do,” Jason said as he grins, and Aiden runs around the room with a giggle.

“Of course, someone may think that running while they are facing a zombie is cowardice, But! If you actually couldn’t beat the zombies or the monster your options are only to run. And try to not be those kinds of people who are just trying to act though and didn’t know their own limits on life alright?” I said as Jason nod, while Aiden keeps running until he accidentally runs into Gabe who is now carrying him.

“Stats,” I mumble as I drink the coffee,

“Hmm, I think it's time to get to my potions..” I once again mumble, Then walking outside the rooms after saying my goodbye to the boys.

After walking the hallways, I finally found who I need to talk to, “Yo Peter, I need a room..” I said and give him small gems or the power rocks, The officers now have a term for the rocks, and call it gems.

“Alright Allie, you can use one of the rooms on the number 12,” Peter said, as he gives me a key. I nod at him,

Walking toward the hallways that are used to be a jail, I search for a ‘room’ numbered 12, The room is a small room, with only a chair and table. Also, a little place for a bed, Locking the door from inside I then close off the curtains so I can do my Potions making.

Setting the cauldrons that I bought from the shop, and the Ingredient as well as the book I begin stirring. After mixing water, oils, blood from the zombies, some herbs and the freshly guts from the inventory because inventory keep things fresh, I then start grind the small power gems,

Then the dust of the gems becoming glitter darkish with a purple tint in the darkroom that only have a candle as the light.

“Sprinkle this into the cauldrons,” I said as I bite my lower lips praying for it will succeed and created something good, Then the cauldrons boiled up and purple smoke rising up. I then chuckle, “Thanks for my Int to give me a head up of using a gas mask,”.

After a while, the boiling cools down, and I realized the color somehow changed into green. I then start to take a whiff of the fumes,

Potions Succeed!

Strength Potions discover!

“Oh fuck yes!” I scream out in happiness and start buying potions glass from the store, 50 medium glass is cost 500 credits, Then I have filled 22 glass with strength potions.

After then, I start cleaning the cauldrons and start to create the HP potions with some monster guts, monster blood, bone and a pint of human blood. Where I got human blood? From myself, of course, It’s basically an easy thing to get.

“Muahahahhahaha!!”
