0009 - The Gateway and moving my core to the second floor

[A/N: As always I need help with monster evolutions, ideas, and more! If you have any ideas please comment here or in the comment section!]

[The Walking Dead Universe]

[Please choose Gateway type]

[Stationary: The Portal will stay in one spot]

[Path: The Portal moves along a set path]

[Random: The Portal moves randomly around the floor]

"So if I were to choose the Random Gateway, the portal would randomly appear anywhere within the floor? And it would keep moving?" I asked.

[Answer: Correct]

"Then I choose the random."

[Constructing Gateway]

[Constructed]

[Linking portal to Earth(TWD)]

[Done]

Suddenly I was alerted to a strange crack in the air that seemed to be shifting position throughout my first floor at random spots and frequencies.

But there is, however, one thing that I noticed, it never appeared near the center core territories of the three Monster factions.

Sitting at the center of each of the Monster Faction territories were the Obelisks, which appeared to be large pieces of stones with carvings all over them which the factions had already begun examining.

I just watched as the golden crack in the air moved around the floor randomly.

Other than that, I looked in the System Store, and my shock could not be described.

I could now buy Treasures, knowledge, tools, material, and so much more, and I even had the option to set some of these things to be drop items from killing the dungeon monsters.

The question is, what would people in a Zombie Apocalypse need?

Food, Water, Medicine, Power, Weapons, and Clothes.

So I got to work with assigning the Monster factions with drop loot that would interest the apocalypse survivors.

[Meanwhile on the other side]

"Pszzzt, I REPEAT, I URGE YOU STAY IN YOUR HOMES AND ISOLATE YOURSELVES FROM ANYONE INFECTED! THIS IS A GLOBAL PANDEMIC EVENT! THIS JUST IN, THE PRESIDENT HAS DEPLOYED THE NATIONAL GUARD AND ARMY ACROSS THE UNITED STATES TO SET UP CAMPS! I ADVISE YOU IF YOU CAN NOT LEAVE YOUR CITY OR TOWN, STAY IN YOUR HOMES!" A newswoman warned on the TV before sudden firing echoes in the background as a man covered in blood lunged onto the woman and began feasting on her flesh.

For those still living in the world, this broadcast has been on repeat for the last week, as over 80% of the population died and transformed into newly risen undead.

Those still alive grouped with others while those alone typically did not last long...

Even though only a week has passed since the fall of most of civilization, countless were still dying daily.

Banditry became common, betrayal even more so.

Most of the government and army were already dead, meaning many survivors could now get their hands on Military-Grade equipment, including the Bandits...

But not all hope was lost.

Small communities began forming, and the survivors started learning tricks and strategies to survive against both the Zombies and other people.

While food and water are still easily accessible, it would not be that way for long once the electricity goes out entirely and food will start to spoil.

What makes it worse is that most places with large amounts of supplies, such as Wal-Mart, were utterly overrun with Zombies, while the smaller businesses such as Gas stations have long since been looted.

But focusing on a farming town in Ohio, a community numbering a few hundred people laid.

They did not have a name for this community, but it was ultimately self-sufficient and was more than capable of handling itself.

But what no one expected one night was for a sudden massive thunderstorm to appear over their quaint town with no previous signs of a storm coming at all.

And as lightning seemed to gather in the clouds above the town during the night, no one expected all of the lightning to combine and form a massive lightning bolt that struck the center of their town in the park before the storm suddenly dissipated, returning to the once clear skies.

Expecting a fire of some kind, the townspeople rush out from their homes with water in the hope of stopping the potential fire before it could spread too far.

But what no one expected was to find a strange golden crack in the air...

By morning almost everyone in town was in the park and looking upon the crack in the air.

Some called it the wrath of 'God.'

Others called it an anomaly.

Either way, the Elected Mayor and Milita quarantined the crack.

For days the Militia guarded and made sure that if anything were to happen with the crack, the Mayor and Council would be alerted at a moment's notice.

What no one expected, however, was that after five days passed, for a 15-year-old boy to sneak past the Militia and before the eyes of most of the Militia, touch the crack and disappear in a flash of light...

Once the Council and Mayor were alerted of the situation, it was voted, and a rescue party was assembled and equipped with anything they could need.

The 5-man rescue team touched the crack with bravery and instantly found themselves in a forest, standing around the crack in space with the missing person nowhere in sight.

"So it's a portal...but where are we?" Asked one of the Militia Soldiers.

"Who knows? Perhaps it's the promised Holy Land of God?" So asked one of more religious of the Militia.

"It doesn't matter. We need to find that kid," Answered one of the more serious of the group.

"Just be on your guard. I feel like there is something wrong with this place."
