Horde In danger.

I apologize for the oversight. Let me add some additional content to the revised passage to ensure it exceeds 1000 words:

Nate's energy point was like his last resort, saving his life in dire moments, such as the one he found himself in now.

The energy point acted like a charger for Nate, allowing him to replenish his health points to a satisfactory level. Using it healed all the wounds on his body. He had just utilized it to regenerate his severed wrist and half-amputated foot.

Jim had never expected Nate to possess the ability to heal himself. Seeing this left Jim bewildered. Nate seized the opportunity to gain the upper hand. Presently, Jim lay face-down on the floor, with Nate firmly pinning him down.

"I told you I didn't want to kill you," Nate said to Jim, who struggled to break free from his grasp. Nate's grip on Jim's hand was unyielding.

"I don't care. All zombies must die!" Jim shouted, his eyes filled with unmistakable hatred. Nate couldn't help but wonder what had instilled such intense loathing for zombies in Jim.

It was ironic that Nate pondered this question because, in a world like theirs, no one would befriend a zombie. The majority of deaths were now caused by zombies, making Nate's musings seem rather pointless.

Nevertheless, Nate knew he could reason with Jim. He placed his hand on Jim's back and activated a skill from his list.

[Initiator]

[Force Initiating Jim Jigsaw]

As with Lyon before, Jim began to experience an intense heat throughout his body, as if he were being consumed by flames. He tried to endure it, but the pain became unbearable, and he started to scream. Nate quickly gagged him with a cloth.

Meanwhile, while Jim seemed to undergo a second evolution, Nate received notifications from the system.

[First-time use of Force Initiator: the host will be explained its benefits and how it works]

[Memory: Any being that is force-initiated will retain their memories, but the host can choose to erase them]

Nate was pleased with these notifications. This meant that Jim would retain his memories, including his knowledge of weapon crafting. The only concern now was whether Jim's intense hatred for zombies would persist.

This dilemma weighed heavily on Nate, but the notifications continued.

[Loyal Personality: This creates a new personality for the initiator, loyal to the host for life]

Nate immediately grasped the implications. "This is cool," he thought. Jim would become like a loyal subordinate, following his every command, similar to Nate's zombie horde.

A loyal personality was not something Nate had experienced with Lyon. Although Lyon followed Nate's orders, it wasn't unconditional obedience. This was due to Lyon's initiation by agreement. Nevertheless, they would never betray Nate, as even the system had confirmed.

[You have successfully initiated Jim into your gang]

[Name: Jim Jigsaw]

[Race: Human]

[Class: Falling Alter Superhuman]

[Health: Good]

Nate couldn't help but wonder what was "good" about Jim's health, considering his current condition.

Jim lay on the cold floor, his face red, and a white, foam-like substance emanating from his mouth.

Nate mumbled, "It's a pity... You helped us before, and now you're my loyal pet."

Nate wasn't entirely comfortable with Jim's transformation. Jim had been a good person who had aided them when they first arrived in town. However, Nate saw no alternative. It was either this or killing Jim, which would be even more regrettable.

As Nate contemplated, more messages appeared.

[Jim's energy source is petrol, but after the evolution, it's now "Blood"]

[Note: This refers to all types of blood from any race]

Nate finally understood why Jim had kept a significant amount of fuel by his side. It was his energy source, the liquid he had consumed from that keg.

Nate picked up the keg and smelled the inside. "It does smell like fuel," he thought, tossing it aside before approaching Jim.

"What happened...?" Nate began to ask, but Jim slowly rose, trying to shake off his dizziness by moving his head from side to side.

Nate immediately assumed a defensive stance, unwilling to lower his guard.

Jim turned towards him, confusion in his eyes. "You... What did you do to me? I should be angry with you, but I'm not."

Jim's bewilderment mirrored Nate's. This wasn't what he had expected when Jim regained consciousness.

Nate thought, 'Is this the loyal personality? Jim is still Jim, but something feels different, and I sensed a connection the moment he woke up, like he's one of my hordes.'

Nate's thoughts were interrupted when Jim tried to rise but stumbled and fell with a loud thud.

"Such irony," Nate mumbled as he moved to help him.

But then, another notification arrived.

[Congratulations on successfully defeating Jim and initiating him into your club]

[You now have two initiates; please choose a name for your club]

[Reward: Two instant level-ups]

[4 attribute points have been awarded to the host]

[You are now level 10 and ready for the next evolution level-up]

[Do you want to upgrade now?]

Nate was about to select 'yes,' but another notification halted him.

[-10hp>>>Peter]

[Some people are attacking your Horde and initiated member]

[Do you want Peter to fight?]

Panic surged through Nate. He quickly issued a command:

[Function: Kill them and store their meat]
