《Those Zombies Again》Chapter 8
Advertisement
The next day, Sam waited for the guy from the next house to start luring the zombies to his door at the entrance. Then he went out supposedly on his usual patrol. As expected, a neighbor noticed him and shouted:
- Sam!
Sam turned to him.
- Sam brother help me, there is almost no food, the neighbors' doors are closed, there is nothing to break open, maybe your sword will work out?
Sam pretended to think, then said - Okay, no problem mate - and went to the entrance.
To begin with, he removed the corpses from the door, while Russell opened the doors. Sam slowly approached and went inside, carefully looking around, closing the door behind him, he followed Russell, who also turned and began to lead him forward, saying:
- Brother, you are really strong, what ur ...
Russell did not have time to finish, as soon as Russell turned away, Sam made a dash forward with all his might and in two steps reached Russell, having blown his head clean. The head flew off, blood gushed, and Russell's corpse fell onto the stairs.
Sam looked carefully around and up, but he didn't notice anyone else, he had no idea if Russell was really asking for help or was planning something, and honestly Sam didn't care, Russell was the perfect target and killed a lot of zombies over the last week.
As expected Sam, after the murder he received particles, and somewhere 230 soul particles. After estimating, he realized that it was most likely half of the soul particles earned by Russell and he was level 3.
Before the advent of the zombie, Sam was a law-abiding citizen, no matter how antisocial he was, he certainly behaved adequately. However, the only thing that always stopped him was fear and the law. Thanks to the fact that he became stronger, he managed to overcome fear. Well, now it doesn't smell like law. Sam's heartbeat quickened, he was excited, but that was all, he had been preparing for this moment for a long time.

Sam did not stay, dragging the corpse away so that he would not be conspicuous, he opened the entrance door and put a stone so that it remained open, at the same time making a good noise, lured the zombie and then ran away.
Sam hadn't really hoped for other people before, but after his check, he realized that a disaster was coming. The few people who can survive will sooner or later learn that it is much easier to kill other people for the sake of particles.
For example, you can get people to hunt and, when they pick up relatively many particles, kill them and rip the cream off. Perhaps there are other options, one thing is certain, even without this fact people would kill each other, but with this information real chaos will begin.
A particularly funny moment is that it doesn't make much sense for a high-level person to kill the weak, although it still depends on the number of these weaklings, it is much easier for him to kill zombies.
But the same cannot be said about the rest, any person who sees someone strong enough will feel temptation, especially since you can, for example, shoot him in the legs, then come up and finish off, and his high parameters will not help him.
In general, sooner or later, riots will begin on pirate ships, so being a "Boss" or "Hero" is more expensive for yourself.
Also, Sam should be wary of firearms, in this poor homeless city only a few will probably find weapons, and the city police station is quite far away. While there was the Internet, Sam did not forget to look at the map of the city and the surrounding area and mark the places of interest to him, all the same, before he was not interested in this city at all.

In general, in theory, Sam will not meet people with firearms, unless he is very unlucky, but it's worth preparing for this.
From now on, he decided to invest all the points of characteristics in agility, his skill can help him feel the fact that someone is aiming at him, but he still needs to react in time and leave the line of fire.
Sam noticed that some of the people he met became afraid to look him in the eye. Most likely they have nothing else to do, so they mostly look out the windows, and may have guessed about Russell's fate.
Sam continued to clean up the neighborhood, also checked absolutely all the apartments in his entrance and went to other zombies.
One day he saw a child who ran out of the entrance and screamed in search of his father, this child was like 5 years old. Sam chuckled. The boy attracted zombies with his screams, when he saw a zombie, he got scared and fell in tears and horror. Soon zombie got to the small kid and began to devour him alive.
Perhaps Sam could have helped the boy if he had rushed to him almost immediately, but he was not going to do such nonsense. This is not the first time he has seen something like this, and it will not be the last. If he helped everyone who needed it, he would already have a small camp of debtors, but what's the point of them?

Candor: The Forgotten House
*** Please read note below *** As a 16-year-old mage from a powerful family, Jayce Candor had known from a young age what his future would hold. As the fourth son in his family the possibility of him becoming the heir to the household was very small. But, with his talent as a mage, his potential accomplishments in the military could lead to titles of nobility and political power. However, on what would otherwise be an unremarkable night, everything he had ever known, the only people he ever cared for, and all of the plans for his future were destroyed. House Candor, one of the six great houses that helped build the Eldoran Empire had been erased from history. By imperial decree, all those bearing the name Candor were hunted down and executed as traitors of the Empire. With no home, no family, and only death waiting for him, Jayce decided to escape north to the uncharted Northern Territories to begin a new life. Forced into situations he was never prepared for and trying to cope with his past, Jayce tries to find safety in a place spoken about only in legends. There for the first time, he will make true friends and find people he will come to see as family. He will encounter strong enemies, build powerful alliances, and become a person his ancestors would be proud of. But surrounded by creatures he thought only existed in tales and pressed by the Empire’s constant expansion, Jayce’s safety may be only an illusion. To survive a world fraught with danger Jayce will need to grow stronger with each new experience and rebuild his once forgotten house. ********************************************************************** Note: The story starts slow. Although there is more action as the story progresses, there is a fair amount of introspection and character introduction in the first 30 chapters. Jayce is the main character, however, other characters play a large role and the story is seen through multiple POV's. This is a draft, it is not a finished work. This is not a story that focuses on an OP MC who beats up on weaklings. At times there can be a fair amount of internal monologue. Some of that may be edited out when I rewrite the story. I decided to keep it in the draft because I think it is better to have too much material rather than too little when I edit. Constructive criticism is appreciated as it helps in the editing and rewriting process. Check out my other story Shattered Mind here

8 61Second Wind, legend of Pandemonium (Finished/Incomplete)
The developers of the worlds leading VRMMORPG Edge Online have decided to shut down its servers after over a decade. Shugireth Darkstar, the leader of Pandemonium, Edge Online's top guild, suffers from a deadly disease and his end is near. He hasn't left his VR pod for 5 years, as the medical nanodroids at the hospital takes care of him. Without Edge, he will die, because his physical body has already been all but destroyed by the sickness. Seeing no light at the end of the tunnel, Shugireth Darkstar, the Master of Pandemonium, stubbornly stays behind as the servers shut down... If that was all, we could end this story right here. However, that was only the beginning of the legend of pandemonium. The prelude to the movement, if you will. Shall we see what happens next? -------------- Some notes from Me (The author, gasp surprise): I first wrote this (100k) as an experiment. I saw the advice about having foils for overpowered MCs, and I watched quite a few lectures on writing. I wanted to test things out for myself and see if I could carry a story through other ways than only relying on physical conflict like some thrillers do. Thus this might lean a bit towards slice of life with a romance subplot, but I don't want to give my story away so read it if u want to know more. This was basically never intended for anyone else's eyes but my own, and written to explore writing as a process. This wasn't my attempt at writing a good book, but it turned into something that I think might interest some people, so I decided to pop it up here. It is slightly old so my style and writing skills have advanced considerably since I first started this thing. Having said that, I think it's pretty readable, but I am very interested in how other people will receive this. Please feel free to criticize it and just in general shoot me some feedback on what you think. It contains light Litrpg elements, not heavy table spam, it's just the basis of the world. Although I like that sort of thing, this was written before I even knew of Royalroad and hadn't considered litrpg much. Some of you may recognize that it was slightly inspired by Overlord. Also, the Tags for sexual content and traumatizing content are there as a precaution on all of my stories pretty much, even if my story does not contain any of that at the moment. I can't really know what the future will bring, but in the case of this story I do know a little bit, since I wrote 100k words before posting it here. And I just posted it on a whim because I figured some readers on Royalroad might enjoy this story.
