2026-11-06 17:11:03Scott looked for a less crowded corner in the room to seat. He glanced around the room and saw some people already discussing and forming groups while others just stayed on their own like him. He had no plan on associating with others. Even during his days as an e-sport player, he is always called out by his coach as a bad teammate. He had always preferred solo matches.
Unless he had no choice or it was made compulsory by the system, he didn't plan on teaming up with anyone. He opened the panel and selected Personal Information. The first thing he wanted to do was to set his nickname. He choose the name FAKER since that was the name had always used as an e-sporter. Player: Scott Hart ID: SH-84-19372 Nickname: FAKER Status: Severely Weakened Hp: 40/100 Backpack storage space: ♾️ Infinite backpack storage. He could keep whatever he wanted without worrying about running out of space. Next, he selected Regional Chat. [Currently locked.] Locked? It seemed that the function would only become available during missions. That made sense. There was no need for a regional chat when everyone was physically present in the same room and could communicate directly. However, he noticed that the interface displayed the total number of players. Total Number of Players: 150,000/200,000 Fifty thousand people had died in the massacre. This only further emphasised the cruelty of the System. He selected the Trade icon, but nothing was currently listed there. He wasn't surprised. No one had anything to offer or trade yet. Next, he checked his personal space and noticed a golden key with an intricate design inside. He retrieved it and, out of curiosity, pointed his wristband at it. A line of description immediately appeared on the screen. He hadn't known that the wristband could also identify objects. Universal Key: Can open any lock, no matter how complicated. Simply say 'open sesame' to unlock it. Can be bound to a player. Scott selected the option to bind the key to himself. It was convenient and would prevent the key from being misplaced or stolen. Considering how powerful its function was, he couldn't afford to lose it. After binding the key, the interface changed, revealing another description. COPY skill Can replicate 5 copies of a single item per day Daily limit: Can only be used 3 times per day. Skill Cooldown: Every 8 hours. Has a 10% probability of increasing the quality of the copied item. NOTE: Copied items can not be copied again. A new item is required. Scott's eyes lit up as he read the instructions. "This skill is really powerful. It can copy anything and there's even a chance of increasing the quality." Scott thought, already thinking of countless ways he can use the skill but he has to be careful because of the limit. One bottle of water will become 10 bottles. One bread will become 10. He noticed a very small with dot at the edge of the panel. "What's that?" He clicked on the dot and it directed him to another interface. UPGRADE CONDITIONS Copy items 10 times to upgrade to the next level. LEVEL 2 Can replicate 10 copies of a single item per day Daily limit: Can only be used 4 times per day Skill Cooldown: Every 6 hours 15% probability of increasing the quality of the copied item. "This damned system. Rotten to the core" There were actually ways to upgrade the skill but it decided not to inform them and even hide the upgrade button to the point that was almost invisible. It definitely didn't want them to find out. If not for his sharp eyesight, he would have missed it. He has to be very careful. This system is really mischievous and diabolical. The skill is really overpowered and he doesn't have to worry about storage space since his backpack had unlimited storage space and tome is static. He can even trade the excess copies for other items with other players. He knew that having a good skill doesn't necessarily means survival. He can only depend on himself and ensure that he survive till the end. Next, he selected the Global Mall to see what was available. The Global Mall contained a variety of supplies, including food, weapons, medicines, daily necessities, and even means of transportation such as cars, bicycles, boats, and so on. The prices of the items varied, but he couldn't determine whether they were cheap or expensive. For example, a bottle of water cost 20 Survivor Coins, while a loaf of bread cost 30 Survivor Coins. He hadn't earned any Survivor Coins yet, so he had no idea whether the prices were reasonable. After exploring every option on the panel, Scott decided to relax a little before the first game began but he didn't close his eyes. One could never be too careful. A man suddenly approached him. "Hey, dude! What do you think about what's going on?" Scott glanced up at the man but didn't reply. "Hey, man! I'm talking to you." "And I'm not interested in replying," Scott said, turning away from him. "We're all in the same shitty situation. We should stick together," the man insisted, his eyes darting around. Scott immediately sensed that something was off. The man must have had an ulterior motive for approaching him. "For the last time, I'm not interested. You should find someone else," Scott replied, trying not to sound rude. But the man wasn't giving up. "What's your problem? Okay, no problem. I was the one invading your space. I just wanted to know what your skill was." So that was his real motive. The man finally revealed his intentions. Did he really think Scott was gullible enough to reveal his skill just because he had approached him with a friendly attitude? Scott stared at him coldly. "And why should I tell you my skill?" "We can team up for the first game. It'll improve our chances of survival." "Okay, sure. But why don't you tell me your skill first?" "I—" The man stopped, apparently wondering why Scott wasn't falling for his tricks like the others. Scott smirked. He knew the man would never reveal his own skill. He was simply trying to size him up and determine whether he would be a threat. [DING!] The System's voice suddenly sounded again. It seemed an hour had already passed. Scott stood up from the floor. [Time to begin your first official survival game.] [Teleporting in 5...4...3...2...1...] Everything went black. He felt as though the air in his lungs was being sucked out.

Chapter 9: Upgraded Machete
Scott drove towards the first pharmaceutical supermarket he had marked on the map. He had already located four major pharmaceutical supermarkets and warehouses, and this was the first one he intended to raid. He parked some distance away, keeping his vehicle out of sight, and carefully observed the surroundings. Four zombies were wandering near the entrance. From their uniforms, they appeared to be former security guards."How am I supposed to deal with four zombies at once?" Scott muttered.He was still a beginner, for God's sake! He had only killed three zombies so far, and now he was expected to face four at once? Unfortunately, the Survival Game wouldn't wait for him to gain experience.Scott looked around and spotted a rock on the ground. An idea immediately came to mind.He picked it up and threw it towards the opposite end of the building.Clang!The sound attracted the attention of the zombies. They immediately turned and staggered towards the direction of the noise. He watch
Chapter 8: First kill
Scott immediately froze, his face turning pale as his hands grew cold with fear.Standing before him was a zombie with only one hand. Its other arm ended in a bloody stump, while one of its eyeballs had become dislodged and dangled from its socket.The sight was so horrifying that bile immediately rose in Scott's throat, threatening to bring up his breakfast. However, he forced himself to hold it back.He had enjoyed watching zombie movies before he was transported by the system, but watching a movie and facing a real zombie were two completely different things."What exactly is this zombie looking for in such a deserted area?" Scott thought bitterly. He had deliberately chosen a deserted location to rest, yet somehow, a zombie had still managed to find him.The zombie wasted no time before lunging at him with its bloody mouth wide open. Scott immediately forced his frozen body to move out of the way. Any slight mistake at this point could cost him his life.He quickly swung the mache
Chapter 7: Apocalypse begins
Scott came across a video showing several people collapsing to the ground. A few seconds later, their bodies began convulsing violently."Oh my goodness! What's wrong with them?" a woman shouted. "Someone should call an ambulance! We need to get them to the hospital!"She hurried towards a man who was also convulsing, attempting to help him."Sir, are you okay? Can you hear me?"Suddenly, the man stopped convulsing and sprang to his feet. Before the woman could react, he lunged at her and sank his teeth into her neck."Arrrrgh!"The woman screamed, desperately trying to pry him off, but his grip was too strong. He continued biting until he tore a large chunk of flesh from her neck."Are you crazy? Why are you attacking her?" a man shouted.However, the zombie immediately turned towards him and pounced, biting him and tearing another chunk of flesh from his body.Meanwhile, the woman who had been bitten began to convulse, turning into a zombie in just few seconds. She turned, pouncing
Chapter 6: Filling up the space
Scott took out his bank card and activated his skill. In the next instant, five bank cards appeared in his storage.However, one of them looked different. Among the copies was a completely black bank card.Scott took it out and examined it. It looked different from the original, and he immediately suspected that his skill had triggered another upgrade.He pointed his wristband towards it, and a description appeared on the screen.[Game World Bank Card: Can be used in any game world with a spending limit of $1,000,000.]Scott's eyes widened. What kind of heaven-defying skill was this? A bank card that could be used in any game world!If spending money became compulsory in another survival world, he wouldn't have to worry about where to get it. He could simply use this card.Scott stared at the black card in his hand, a wide grin slowly spreading across his face. His skill just kept surprising him.The next morning, Scott woke up early and the first thing he did was check the internet f
Chapter 5: Hoarding cooked food
Scott's stomach growled at the heavenly aroma filling the air. He turned towards the source and spotted an Asian noodle restaurant. It was packed with customers, which was a good indication of how delicious the food might be. Scott entered, and his already starving stomach seemed to come alive at the sight and smell of the food. His stomach growled even louder.Why was he still this hungry despite having taken on another identity? Perhaps the hunger was psychological rather than physical.He found a quiet spot, ordered a large bowl of beef ramen and a bottle of water. A few minutes later, his steaming ramen arrived, the rich aroma making him salivate.The bowl contained generous portions of noodles and large chunks of beef. His first mouthful brought tears of joy to his eyes.God knew how long he had been starving!He ate so quickly that he almost choked. He had to slow down and take a few sips of water before continuing. Still unsatisfied, he ordered another bowl.Only after finishi
Chapter 4: Zombie Apocalypse World
Scott opened his eyes, and bile immediately rose to his throat. This time, he couldn't hold it back and threw up. That teleportation experience had been terrible. It felt as though all his internal organs had been violently rearranged.After finally feeling better, he had time to examine his surroundings. He had been transported into a public restroom stall. There was no sign of anyone else.[DING!][Welcome to your first survival game.][Zombie Apocalypse World][A laboratory experiment went wrong and those infected began transforming into zombies.][Mission 1: Kill 1000 low level zombies][Mission 2: kill 20 high level zombies][Mission 3: Survive for 40 days][The outbreak will begin on the third day, so be prepared.][Congratulations on successfully entering the game.]"Wait. That's all?"Scott let out a frustrated sigh.The System had simply dumped him in some random location without providing any further explanation. He couldn't exactly blame the damned thing, though. At least
