2024-10-29 19:42:56This is his first time holding a gun. His adrenaline starts to race up. The image of him shooting zombies with the handgun starts playing in his head like in the video game. How fun it would be.
But soon he returns to reality. “No way! There’s no way I can do that!”
Having enough with all the strangeness and his endless anxiety, he rushes down from the top of the hill.
“Oh, God! How am I going to get home now?”
And suddenly…
[!]
[Would you like to go back to your home?]
“Eh, I can go back? Um, yes! Take me home! Take me back home now!”
[Sorry! You need to be inside the portal circle to use the portal]
“Portal circle?”
It reminds Jimmy about the weird circle he found on the ground inside the shallow cave. Hence, he rushes back to that place.
And just like what he thought…
[!]
[Would you like to use the portal?]
“Yes, of course! Finally I can go back to…”
[!]
[Sorry, you don’t meet the minimum requirement. It needs two portal scrolls to transfer you back to Iodrana]
“Portal scroll?”
[!]
[Would you like to buy a portal scroll?]
[1 Portal Scroll = 5 gold coins]
[Your Current Balance = 0 gold coins]
“Ah, I only have…”
Jimmy takes out the little money he has in his pocket and starts counting. But he immediately gets rejection.
[!]
[We don't accept such a useless paper]
“What the hell?”
He snaps and throws money into that holographic interface. But they just pass through.
“How am I supposed to get gold coins here?!”

The next day, Jimmy goes down the hill while checking the condition of his handgun. He has spent one night in this island, without eating anything except a few pieces of guava.
He definitely needs to hunt those rheas. It’s not only to complete the quest so he can get home, but also to find food to stay survive.
Unfortunately, after more than an hour of searching rheas, he is surprised by the appearance of a zombie.
The ugly undead walks so slowly, looking so stupid like a street junky. But the fear it emits unfailingly sends down the chill on Jimmy’s spine.
“Ooh, God! Not now! I’m not ready for this yet!”
Driven by fear, he immediately walks away. However…
“Wait a minute! Looks like it’s not that dangerous. Why don’t I use it as a shooting target for practice?”
There are 17 bullets in his gun, while there’s another spare magazine in his inventory. With 34 bullets at his disposal, he is determined to be proficient in using a handgun.
But using a handgun is not as easy as he thought. To make things worse, his first shot has caught the other zombies’ attention in the swamp, not too far away from that place.
Jimmy keeps his distance, not wanting to get bitten. Slow as it may be, but that one zombie is not just a mere zombie. It keeps swaying like a master of drunken fist.
Either it has a great reflex to avoid the bullets, or maybe it’s Jimmy who is too naïve. He keeps aiming at the zombie’s head, and has always missed it.
“Damn! There must be something wrong with this gun! Only the sound is loud!”
Annoyed, he takes out a crowbar from his inventory, intending to vent out his irritation directly.
As he comes, the zombie also looks ready to have a fight. It swings both hands, like performing a windmill in a basketball dunk contest.
“Woooaa!!” Jimmy gets away in fear. “That was close!”
Terrified, Jimmy simply swings the crowbar blindly.
Dsh!!!
The zombie's head is somewhat soft and easily broken. A kind of green smoke comes out of the zombie's flesh.
The smell is so foul and pungent. Feeling of wanting to vomit, Jimmy moves away and throws everything up. Soon, he notices a legion of zombies slowly approaching.
“Oh, God! What should I do now?”
Tired and annoyed, he rushes to get away. He climbs back up the hill, without realizing he has been poisoned by the one zombie he hit earlier.
Until then...
[!]
[You've been infected by zombie poison, and it has significantly decreased your vitality]
[Your critical condition is at 67 % at the moment. You will turn into a zombie if your critical condition reaches 90 % while the poison still remains in your body]
Jimmy is stunned with a pale face, falls to his knees looking completely resigned. “Why didn't you warn me much earlier, you fucking stupid system! Can't you be smarter than this?”
[!]
[You are the stupid one here]
[Shouting out loud in such a manner will only make the poison spread faster.]
“Fuck off!”
He pants, with both legs feeling so weak. Death! That is the only thing that comes to his mind at the moment.
And even worse…
[!]
[If you become a zombie, you will still be able to see, feel, and think, but mostly unable to control your body. You will stay like that until something kills you]
“Are you fucking kidding me?!”

Frustrated, his breath becomes short. But he still tries to calm his mind, looking for a way to solve his problem.“Hey! Is there any way to cure the poison?”[A small vial of Ether liquid is enough to cure you from this level of poison][A small vial of Ether Liquid = 55 gold coins][Your current balance = 0 gold coins]“Wooo!

And he earned it only after two days trapped in Icalaterra.

Upon entering the shop, he gets the same reaction as the girl at food outlet earlier. At least, the sales girl in this shop doesn't immediately cast him away.“Excuse me! Are you lost?” “No, I want to purchase a motorbike,” replies Jimmy.The girl looks so unenthusiastic, before she looks to another direction, to another sales girl with yellow hair, looking pretty like a flight attendance.“Amy! Could you come here for a moment and do something for this guy here?”That girl simply takes her leave, even without making sure that one sales girl named Amy really comes to Jimmy.In the meantime, Jimmy has to endure his annoyance for being ignored while that Amy girl is busy with her phone. It stays like that, at least until Jimmy confronts her.“Yes?” Amy asks coldly.Jimmy sighs by showing his unenthusiastic face. “Look!

It’s that guy earlier,” mutters the girl by closing her mouth, recognizing Jimmy’s face soon after Jimmy takes off his helmet.“Who?” The girl’s younger brother asks from behind.“No one!” The girl ignores his curiosity.“Oh, wait! That guy?” The younger brother recognizes Jimmy’s face. “Isn’t that the guy we saw on the side of the road at Boslow Hill?

Jimmy gives a shy smile with the lie, but Laura doesn’t say a word. She just finds another similarity between her and Jimmy. Now she feels so bad for treating Jimmy so harsh this morning. “Oh?” the girl just mumbles with her blank face. “So you are heading back to Summerfield now?” “Yeah! By the way, thanks for the water,” says Jimmy as he walks away. “Hold on! Wait!” the girl calls. “Do you have a phone number?” Jimmy turns around. “A phone number?” “Um…, uh… It, it will be a long road. Something could just happen to you on the way, so…” “Oh, you are right! But, sorry! I don’t have a phone. You see, I lost everything because of the accident.” Jimmy smiles and takes his leave.

Cynthia doesn’t look curious, but horrified by something so strange and inexplicable.“Um, Jimmy? What about your legs?

Without saying anything to Jimmy, she just raises her chin up and then walks away.But then…“Aunt Molly!” Jimmy calls.Molly turns around and only responds to Jimmy's call with a sour face.“I’m going to move out, and I’ll take Erick with me,” says Jimmy.Molly's eyebrows twitch. From that alone, Jimmy already can read the mood.“I'm old enough,” continues Jimmy. “You can’t stop me now! I already have a part-time job. I'm sure it's more than enough for…”“More than enough for what?” Molly interrupts coldly. “What do you think you can do with the meager salary you earn at Leonard’s farm?”“The salary isn't big in your eyes, but it's enough to cover our expenses,” Jimmy insists.“You may leave,” says Molly. “But Erick has to stay here with me.”Jimmy looks so annoyed. He clenches his hands so tightly. It's not to punch that 41 year old lady. He is enduring his frustration at the moment.“With Uncle Jackson's large income, you could have hired a maid.

Before midday, Detective Dotson visits a tomato sauce factory owned by Morgan Mitchell. Previously he had visited Morgan's house, but no one welcomed him.At least, he was informed that Morgan would be here in this factory. Yet, the receptionist keeps denying him.“If that's the case, I'll wait here until he comes,” Dotson insists.“There is no guarantee Mr. Morgan would be coming today. He's a very busy person,” explains the receptionist guy.“I'll stay here at least until you guys close,” says Dotson before looking for a seat.He keeps starting around, examining his surroundings just like a genuine detective. Occasionally, he steals glances at the receptionist guy.And as he expected, the receptionist starts acting unnaturally, making a call secretly, while occasionally glancing at Detective Dotson.“I've tried to chase him away, sir!

A small beam of light coming in from the gap in the window curtains lands on Jimmy’s closed eyes, waking him up from his sleep.Squirming comfortably, he hugs the soft pillow, pulling the blanket to cover his face, intending to continue sleeping.But then…“Didn't he just buy a new phone before this? What's wrong with him contacting us?”A woman's chattering which is not so foreign to him ruins his mood and comfort.Jimmy throws back the blanket and then gets up to sit on the nursing bed, waiting for the arrival of the annoying Aunt Molly.“Oh, you are awake?” says Molly as she enters the treatment room, welcoming Jimmy's morning with a sour face. “That's great! Now get up and wash your face! I can’t waste my time here!”“Sorry, ma'am!” The nurse politely interferes with Molly. “You can't take him home yet.

Limping, Jimmy descends from the waterfall into the river below. He takes out a knife, and then opens his clothes.He steadies his breathing, preparing himself to do something that would definitely be painful. After looking quite convinced…“Aaaarrgh!!!He widens the wound on his shoulder with the knife, the part where he has been shot earlier.

“Hey, Tyler! Have you gone nuts?”“Woi! Let her go! If you are so hungry, we still have some meat left!”They pull Tyler away, but that friend of theirs isn’t letting Julia go. The bite is so strong that it pulls some part of Julia’s flesh off.The girl is kneeling, crying and screaming so wild. Tyler reaches out his hands at Dwayne, while opening his mouth wide. Dwayne feels so eerie, and can only push him away.“Hey, Tyler! Enough already!”On the other hand Peter is now holding his knees, looking so weak with rag breathing. It seems like the zombie poison in his body has also weakened him.Dwayne averts his attention to Peter. Now he is starting to worry about himself, believing that he must have also been inflicted by the same illness like his friends have.And indeed, he feels like he is gradually weaker and weaker.“What’s going on with me?”Meanwhile…“Kukukuu!

They drag Jimmy away from the swamp, until they meet with Julia who has only been watching from afar.The girl looks so excited. She intends to kick Jimmy’s head, but Peter just pushes her away harshly.“What was that?” She immediately gets up, looking so pissed off.“You are going to wake him up,” Peter reprimands. “Let’s take him back to the cave first. You can do whatever you please there.”Julia’s irritated face slowly changes. An evil satisfied grin adorns her face.Later, after taking Jimmy back to their hideout, in the cave behind a waterfall, they wait for Jimmy to wake up.Dwayne is ready with an unsheathed katana, while Peter is now engrossed with a gun he has snatched from Jimmy’s waist.“Hey, Peter! Keep pointing the gun at him! Don’t forget, he can summon weapons out of nowhere,” Dwayne reprimands.Peter stops playing with the gun and then points it at Jimmy.

The third day on the Leawel Isles, Jimmy still has to continue the hunt, in the grassy lowland, located between the forest and the coastline.As Marco speculated, this place is indeed the rheas' favorite habitat, something Jimmy has never thought of before.“You see! One of the most important things in hunting is to know the habits and habitat of your prey,” explains Marco in a whisper.Unlike before, they bring Cynthia and Zoe along, but don’t give the two girls bow guns. This is better than leaving the two of them in the cave.The grass around them is quite tall, making it easy for them to approach their prey quietly. Not to mention Marco, who is also quite talented with a bow gun and rarely misses his target.They only need to kill 6 rheas, and manage to accomplish this even before midday. Everything is done by Marco alone, while Jimmy hasn’t hit a single rhea at all.“You see! We don’t need to immediately kill them!” Marco hands over his bow gun at Jimmy. “After injuring one rhea,

He then glances at the crowbar in his hand, with whatever thought he has in his mind.Later, he also ignores Julia. He doesn’t follow Tyler, but heading toward the river.“Hey, Dwayne!” Peter calls as he rushes to prevent him. “You want to confront that guy with just a crowbar! Are you out of your mind?”Apparently, Dwayne goes to the river only to pick the dead rhea abandoned by Marco. He picks it and then throws it toward Peter. Somehow, there’s still some confidence in his face.“A crowbar is enough! But first, we need food! You can’t win a war without food!”It’s a good thing they have meat to eat now. However, none of them knows how to make fire. It doesn’t even cross their minds about the importance of fire, but they look so excited for having something to eat.***Two days have passed in Summerfield

It hits Jimmy so hard that he is flung two meters away and falls into a deeper part of the river. The snake isn’t letting that chance slip, and immediately slithers toward him.Jimmy clearly sees the snake’s head underwater, while the gun is no longer in his hand. And there’s no way to issue any command now.Just as the snake opens its mouth to eat Jimmy, it suddenly behaves strangely. It’s thrashing around like it's in so much pain.Jimmy has the opportunity to bring his head above the surface, and immediately swims to the nearest river bank, even though he has to get closer to the snake.And then…“Inventory! Box No. 6!”…“Yes!”A shotgun appears in the air and drops. It’s a pump-action semi-automatic shotgun with 20-gauge shells.“Kachk!” He pumps once, and then shoots the snake’s body at point-blank range.Boom!The snake raises its head from the water, opening its mouth wide, either in pain or it is angry at Jimmy.As soon as it turns its head toward Jimmy…“Kachk!

Now, because it has been passed many times, a path has been formed leading to the river. Julia finds no difficulty at all following it.A few moments later, she hears Zoe’s excited laughter. She stands behind the bushes, observing Zoe who is completely naked, having fun in the freshwater.“Come on, Cynthia! Take off your clothes!” Zoe invites in half shouting.“Naaah!” Cynthia declines as she keeps skinning the dead rhea with a knife. “It’s going to take a while for me to clean a chicken this big. I’m dead hungry. I want to grill this one as soon as possible.”Julia stays there for quite a while, with whatever kind of thought she has in her mind.As she keeps observing them, Julia’s grip on the crowbar is getting tightened. Her face looks so sour full of emotion, unlike the pitiful pale face she has been showing inside Serene Den.She steps forward, but accidentally steps on a dry twig. Immediately, she gets down right before Cynthia looks in her direction.Cynthia abandons her work.
