1 I Am Collecting Attributes at the Apocalypse!

[ the world doesn't end with a bang, but with a whimper ]

The end of the world would come one day. The land was barren, and no one could find any food.

Any food became extremely precious.

Hades loved photography. He had shot many beautiful scenes before the end of the world, but those scenes turned into Hell on Earth after the end of the world.

"Food! Food!" The person who said this was the leader of the dormitory building, Bosil. "Why are you all so useless? You can't find any food at all!"

Bosil was the captain of the football team. With his strong physique, he took over the dormitory building after the apocalypse and gathered the members of the original football team.

The teammates of the football team or other sports clubs were all on duty, guarding the dormitory building while being invaded by zombies.

As for weak people like Hades, who only knew how to take photos, they were sent out on dangerous missions to look for food.

Bossel was furious because those useless people had not found any food for three days in a row!

As a punishment, he chased Hades out of the dormitory building as a warning to others.

Hades, who was chased out of the dormitory building, might not even live until tomorrow. This was his punishment for not finding any food!

The world outside the dormitory building was very dangerous. The wandering zombies were looking for the last traces of humans.

These zombies were not as stupid and slow as in the game. On the contrary, they were very strong. Their speed and strength far exceeded that of ordinary humans!

Because of this, it was extremely difficult to find food in the world filled with zombies.

Hades wandered outside the dorm, hungry. He swore that he would see everything that could be eaten, because he was too hungry!

Food... food... food..

Suddenly, Hades saw a red ball of light shining next to the zombie.

It was like a ball of flickering flame, sometimes bright and sometimes dark, and sometimes soft water.

Hades wasn't sure if it could be eaten, but he was too hungry!

He subconsciously went over, ignoring the stench of the zombie, wanting to take it out and eat it.

Being chased out of the dorm, he might as well die like this. Since he was going to die, he might as well eat until he was full.

But when Hades picked up the ball of light, the ball disappeared.

A synthetic electronic voice suddenly appeared in his mind:

"Congratulations, host, you have obtained an attribute system. The attribute has been successfully acquired. Strength + 1."

"Attribute panel opened:

Hades: Mortal

Strength: 3 + 1

Agility: 2

Vitality: 4

Intelligence: 9

Perception: 5

Charm: 6."

"The average status of the attributes is 10."

This voice that directly entered Hades' mind made him excited. He was so happy that he cried.

"System! I have finally obtained the system! I will become the Lord of the apocalypse, the king of the world!"

Other than photography, Hades also loved reading novels. He knew what this meant. Ever since he had obtained the system, his world had changed. It was completely different. He could see countless light balls appearing beside him. The attributes of those light balls, they would all help him become stronger. As long as he was strong enough, he wouldn't have to fear the apocalypse!

"Power! More power!"

"Food! Is there any food?"

He shouted like in the movie Shawshank Redemption, but the system did not respond.

His shout reached the dormitory building.

On the floor, a group of people mocked him mercilessly.

"Is this trash crazy?"

"Isn't it too cruel to chase him away?"

"This world is like this. The weak are prey to the strong. Trash should not live!"

Hades ignored the voices. He knew that he had to walk his own path. Even though the system did not give him anything else, it was enough!

Hades realized that there were different colors and sizes of light balls beside the corpses of the zombies. They should be corresponding to different attributes. As long as he picked one up, he would be able to add attributes.

After being chased out of the dorm, this was the only way for Hades. He had to keep getting stronger so that he could survive in this cruel world!

But now, he was still very weak and needed food to recover. If he was found by a living zombie, he would definitely be eaten by the zombie. He didn't want to become the Zombie's food.

Run! He had to run! He couldn't be caught by the zombie. While running, Hades picked up the attribute balls on the ground.

As long as any part of his body touched these attribute balls, they would quickly merge into Hades' body.

Then came the system's notification:

"Strength + 4, agility + 6, Vitality + 3, intelligence + 1, Perception + 2, Charm + 1..."

The sound of attributes increasing continuously appeared in Hades' mind, and his body also showed obvious changes. The muscles on his arms and legs, which hadn't been there before, faintly appeared, and his speed became faster and faster.

"What is that guy doing! How can he run so fast! This is impossible!" The people in the dormitory building exclaimed as they watched, feeling incredulous. "Come and see, Bossel!"

Bossel also saw Hades, and he turned furious. "That guy must have hidden some food! He lied to us! If he dares to appear in front of me again, I will definitely let him know the price of lying!"

"Traitor!"

"Liar!"

One after another, accusations came from the building.

But as Hades got further and further away, the sound faded behind him.

While he was picking up those attribute balls, some zombies were also alarmed. They smelled the scent of the living and rushed toward Hades without caring about anything else.

The speed of the zombies was not weak at all. They were almost as fast as professional track and field athletes,

"Battle begins! Battle Power Analysis --"

Hades's attribute panel appeared again, but this time it was completely different.

"Hades (mortal)

Strength: 36

Agility: 27

Vitality: 18

Intelligence: 25

Perception: 50

Charm: 20."

This attribute had already made him far better than ordinary people. At this moment, he felt that nothing could stop him!

"Get lost!" Hades roared and kicked the zombies away. The skeletons of the zombies were immediately torn apart.

The zombies that followed were still lunging at him unconsciously. However, they were also smashed into pieces by the kick, and the red light ball that fell was even more dazzling.

"Agility + 10."

The strength of this zombie was far greater than that of the zombies that had already died. Perhaps the attributes of the zombies that he killed with his own hands would be more, or perhaps the attributes of the zombies that died would gradually decrease. However, no matter what, what he needed now was food.

Ignoring the other zombies, he began to run faster. With the ten points of agility from before, he quickly ran to the school's supermarket.

As soon as he entered the supermarket, he immediately pushed the shelves and heavy objects to the door and blocked the zombies from entering.

After making sure that no zombies had entered, he could no longer hold back his hunger. He picked up the bread, sausage, and cooked meat and gulped them down. While drinking a large can of coke, he finally swept away the hunger of the past few days.

At that moment, he noticed that there seemed to be signs of defense in the supermarket. It was possible that someone had already been here. There were also zombie remains and some dried blood stains on the ground.

He became more careful. However, after walking around for a bit, he only saw a half-dead zombie in a corner of the supermarket. However, it was still tenaciously crawling to an unknown place.

The crippled zombie was not a threat to him. Hades felt relieved and continued to look for food to satisfy his hunger.

Hades wanted to eat as much as possible. It was best to eat all the food that could not be preserved for a long time so that it would not be wasted.

"Agh." Hades burped. He was finally full.

His eyes turned to the dormitory building. Since he was full, it was time to think about revenge.
