《An Average Zombie's Path of Evolution》Chapter 12 - Humanity Awakens (1)
Advertisement
The sound of water dripping resounded throughout the broad tunnel, piles of dead rats littered the muddy ground as it gained a new shade of red. The sound of footsteps steps soon resumed as two figures quickly dashed forward.
(Jaeson) “ were halfway to sector four, the water treatment compound should be near here.”
(Xavier) “ I can here more undead heading here”
“Get Ready!”
*Tremble* *Tremble* *Tremble*
However just before the wave of undead made to our location the sides of the walls started trembling, cracks started forming on the ceiling of the tunnel. Small pieces of rusted steel chipped off and inserted themselves into the muddy ground.
*boom*
A hole formed on the ceiling and a gargantuan figure slowly came into view as the dust that came flooding from above cleared away. Two large bloated arms, a large triple chin, and an inhuman sized belly almost three meters wide. It’s skin was a taint of green with black spots and the smell around it probably wasn't much better judging by the number of flies around it.
(Jaeson) “god, not another one”
The large undead opened its mouth and its large waist suddenly seemed to have implode on itself followed by a rapid expansion, the undead’s large bloated throat quickly expanded as a large amount of liquid visibly traveled through the throat to its mouth.
“ghuuughghuuugh”(throw up noise)
Just as a large burst of toxic looking vomit was about to reach us, we already started our countermeasure against the bloater type undead. We simply ran towards it avoiding the toxic vomit, just as we neared it the undead decided to throw its one ton body towards us, however we swiftly dashed away.
The Undead quickly tried getting up however Xavier jumped above its head, turned and grabbed the back of its neck, the undead tried to shake him off while waving its large hands at us. It quickly regained its balance and It’s stomach once again sunked inwards as it aimed his mouth at us, who purposely taunted it. Xavier took the opportunity and quickly lodged a grenade in between its jaws and avoided its rapidly closing teeth. Xavier quickly jumped of the large body while dodging it’s swinging arm and took cover.

*Boom*
Pieces of flesh scattered around the tunnel and stuck themselves to the walls as a fountain of green liquid spilled out of the gauging wound on the undead’s neck.
(Bernabe) “ I still can't believe how stupid these fat fucks are”
(Julius) “hmph, these guys can’t even compare to the hunters we faced back in sector six”
(Jaeson) “ well you better not underestimate them, while they are very stupid, its large body is just troublesome to deal with.”
Just as they continued walking forward, a light red glow flashed behind their backs. An ashen pair of hands tightly griped onto the wall at the intersection on the side of the tunnel, and his legs and waist bended downward, as if ready to pounce any moment. However it instead decided to wait and sneakily follow the small group of soldiers.
A greedy and lustful look appeared on its face.

Sector 0 - Temporary Civilian Center
Large tents filled the streets as supplies and other items were carried in and out of the nearby casino buildings. This place was once a mess but was quickly reclaimed before the disaster spread and took over.
Several Armoured vehicles quickly zoomed by, the nearby civilians watched and inquired where they were heading or what type of mission they may have.
A young man laid inside a nearby tent, his lifeless looking eyes which were very common around told the story of a young man who lost something that was of great importance to him. However, despite losing he was still alive, refusing to die. On the tip of his index finger a small wisp of electricity made a small buzzing noise. He was one of the first awakeners, the future of mankind.

Sector 6 -
A mother kneeled before the corpse of a young girl, a look of terror was still visible on the corpse's face. A small tear flowed down the mother's face, however instead of sadness here face showed extreme rage. A red aura burst from her, quickly turning a deep shade of brown, nearby pebbles started levitating in the air around her.

“AHHHhhhhhh” her scream of rage permeated the entire camp followed by a red aura. Everyone in the camp, whether young, middle aged or old walked and looked at her, upon seeing her expression and the corpse before her, a grim expression crawled into their faces. They have been living in constant fear for the past two weeks, unable to do anything. Hundred of mothers they've seen crying, many kids have been left orphans, and so many people have lost their precious relatives. But all they are able to do is watch in a helpless manner, unable to comfort their own wounded hearts, much less others.
“GYYYAAAAHHHHHHHHH”
Everyone in the camp screamed in unison, the message was clear. Tired of this hopeless situation, the only way to overturn it was to fight back with everything they got.
Their future is in their hands, so it's about time they put them to use.

Pacific ocean -
A large aircraft carrier rapidly moved across the ocean, trying to make it back to land. Gargantuan crabs sunk their pointy legs into the ship's hull and tried to climb to the ship's flight deck. However nearby ships immediately shot them down. The ships were also under constant attack, the sailors onboard looked weary.
Behind them lay a trail of flaming ships which couldn't make it.
Aircraft zoomed by and took out large fish that tried charging at the ships with their missiles. However after a few hours the aircraft ran out of fuel and ammunitions, due to the constant attacks the carrier was unable to advance forward.
Making matters worse, the Nuclear Propulsion system was heavily damaged, the ship quickly lost its mobility and now could only rely on currents to move. These sea creatures themselves relied on the currents to travel, making them unable to get away.
Just as they thought it was all over… it was.
A large vortex opened formed below the carrier, two thick curved pointed walls appeared around the carrier, six tentacles the size of three-six skyscrapers extended from below and flipped all the nearby boats over, some boats tried to flee but were quickly rampaged by sea creatures. Other ships were flipped over by the large waves. Some ships even detonated themselves.
The curved walls suddenly extended from both sides of the flight deck and quickly revealed their nature, a giant beak. The center of the carrier was quickly devoured in one bite. Only pieces of the flight deck were left, and their only fate was to sink to the bottom.
Humanity lost all the battles in the sea.
Countless ships, Countless countries, countless lives.
The Pacific, Atlantic, Arctic, Indian and southern oceans all became places where humanity could not tread.

8 107The Father of All (Rewritten Version)
The Observer had always remained faithful to its duty, to learn and to remember all that would come to pass so that when its Creator returned, it would recount all that it had learned and remembered. But the Universe has stagnated, History repeats itself over and over and the Observer could learn nothing new. This would not do, how could it face its creator with what was basically repetition, monotonous, boring, repetition. But how would it break this looping cycle? How would it write the History of the Universe itself anew?
8 122Slave 53: The Phoenix
Azgarth is a violent Warlord from a planet where everyone feared him, a man that never lost a battle whether it be from his enemies surrendering or dying. After entering a wormhole, this once infamous man had his memory completely wiped. He was enslaved under the name 53. The great comet arrived one day and gave 53 an extremely rare animal aspect, the Phoenix. Having a rare animal aspect puts people on the fast track to power in this world. Will 53 show the same brutality as his former self? Author: So there will probably be a lot of changes when I start hashing out the whole classes and what not. I'm not planning on this to have statuses or anything like that, but when people 'lvl up' is probably going to be something like ascending 1, 2, 3, etc. With each ascension they are many times stronger, for example, someone who hasn't ascend at all would be at 0, but someone with a 1 would be about 5x stronger than someone who is 0 and so on. It would take a long time to reach each one. With the red colored marks which represents fire, I have a couple ideas with what I want to do, in a way a battle royale, as this continent they are on isn't very large, but all four elements are on it (or more, I might add light, dark, and some others) but all the humans have red, while a different alien race has blue (water), brown (earth), and grey (Air). The color of the mark they have influences how they feel about each other, a example of that would be if a red saw a brown, then they would naturally feel a disgust about each other, and if they killed someone from a different color they would gain way more life essence which is needed to ascend than they would killing someone from their same color. The last thing, I'm not too sure about the main character yet, as I like the whole idea of a memory wipe, I almost think it'd be more entertaining to have the guy slowly regain all his memory, then just becoming his normal self again. If that's the case I'll have to change the title of book. The original idea was this guy would keep the name 53, and his prior self named Azgarth is sharing his body, as in he can talk to him and give him advice on things since he doesn't want him to die since he is sorta like a split personality sharing the same body. Looking at it now, idk if I want this guy to be named 53 forever. Warning: A lot of dark content in the book, especially in the flashbacks.
8 77Criminal Lord
Terry Isenburg, the greatest assassin who killed thousands of powerful officials and even led an army of people to reform the world had finally killed his final target after many years of suffering and effort. Changing the world was in sight. Until he was betrayed... Although, even in the abyss of death, two choices were placed before Terry. Enter the Trial or Hell? Watch how the man who nearly took over the world now attempts to take over a world of sword, monster, magic, and one hella strong tarantula... I made this story because I always wanted a dark fantasy isekai with a hella fine backstory rather than an idiot being run over as well as having sustainable, epic scenes with a badass main character. All of which I believe my story has. (Although I'm bad at managing levels and experience and I have little imagery since I hate imagery) One other thing, the first volume may be kinda boring/repetitive but I can guarantee loads of badass action in volume 2 so please stick around. (I would also appreciate the views) If you like or dislike the story, please write a comment or review about this story to help me improve, but please don't hate on the story without explaining why. I also hope that you readers share the story to give me more support. Thanks and I hope you enjoy the story. [The cover is something I made poorly but it represents something in chapter 9-10]
8 135Calamity Star
10 Years ago the Rage Continent was in a state of total war. Not a single speck of life would have been spared if the war continued to spread throughout the land. But the war would not continue for long. The armies of every faction were defeated by a single creature, and a declaration was announced to all. "As long as I am here, don't bother making a commotion or I'll destroy this entire place." And so the varying factions all drew back their forces. The creature withdrew into the Abyssal mountains and seemingly dissapeared from the continent. 10 years later is when our story begins, in the very same Abyssal mountains.
