Chapter 15 Accidental train encounter.

Feeling sweaty, hot and extremely uncomfortable Chad slowly started to awaken. Laying on the hard surface of the metallic train car he now found himself on top of Chad yawned.

Then he opened his eyes only to be momentarily blinded by the morning sun. Feeling his strength coming back to him, he noticed that the green spore ability had deactivated on its own while ye slept.

Did it mean that he had run out of stamina while sleeping? He wasn't sure. Putting his hands on the small pockets of his black suit, he started to search around. Then he realized that his phone was nowhere to be found.

Did he leave it in the trash in the town of Katubuka when he changed outfits? He wasn't sure, but now he was completely lost not knowing where he was or what day it even was. How long had he even been asleep for?

Next, he froze in shock as he looked at his stats.

Seeing this he felt like fainting as he thought to himself. " How could this be possible? What's going on? What are the governments of those African countries doing? No way, this has to be a mistake or a glitch in the system. If this were true then it would mean that over 100 thousand people were dead. "

Looking at his soul counter that was over 150 thousand now, he just couldn't believe it as he shook his head in denial of this number.

Shaking these thoughts away he turned his attention onto his skills which once more could be upgraded a few more points to level 5. There he also saw two new skills. [Lock picking] and [Evasion].

Looking at the upgrade icon Chad like before upgraded all his skills but on the skill, [Finger of dark creations, Level 3] he hesitated. What would happen if he upgraded this to level 5? Would even more people start to die in ever-increasing numbers?

Contemplating on this, he then thought of all the zombie movies and thought to himself. " No way man. There's no way that the army couldn't deal with some stupid zombies. Surely it's going to be fine. "

And with that though he upgraded it to level 5. Then the system voice spoke again.

[Congratulations, hidden class unlocked.]

[Deathbringer]

" Huh, Deathbringer? That, that actually sounds pretty cool. I like it. "

Then the system voice continued to speak.

[Converting, the Rogue class, level 16 into the Deathbringer class level 1.]

[Processing, the Finger of Dark creations, Level 5, will be converted into Hands of Death, level 1.]

Stunned into disbelief all he did was stare at his hands in wonder of his new skills not knowing what any of it really meant. But now that he saw such fast growth and his soul counter getting so high. It was now finally time to do something about his lack of storage.

Looking into his unique skills tab Chad immediately thought of the infamous skill that all gamers needed to have. That being the system storage skill.

Looking at it he saw that for the price of just 100 thousand souls, he could buy it. For the price of so many souls, it surely was the thing he desired. Without much more thought he bought it.

[System Storage, level 1. 0/1000 kilograms used.]

Overjoyed Chad stood up, took his wallet into his hand and with a single thought sent it into the storage. The wallet was disinterested into game-like pixel particles and then disappeared into thin air.

Around him Chad then noticed the countryside turning into rows and rows of houses. Then he saw a road in the distance in front of the train and a big sign there that read. " Lusaka. "

Chad's eyes widened as he thought. " Holy shit! It's the capital of Zambia! How long did I sleep for? Two days maybe? "

Though the sight of the city wasn't impressive to his eyes, it was nonetheless a welcome change to all the safaris and farmland behind him.

To his knowledge, this was the capital city of Zambia with a population of over 3 million. It was also the commercial and political center of the country. Also the wealthiest, safest, cleanest and overall best city in Zambia. Although this wasn't saying much since Zambia is one of the poorest countries in the world.

Overall it was a pretty nice city and the people to his luck here spoke English. And one fun fact is that it's also extremely unsafe for any members of the LGBTQ crowd. It's actually two times safer for women traveling alone than it is for the LGBTQ people.

Then his attention was taken by a fastly approaching traffic light that was flashing green. " Huh, what's that? " Chad said to himself in confusion as he then slammed into the lights hanging above the railway line.

" Bang, bang bang. " Came the sound as he was sent flying from railcar to railcar. His head slammed into the metal, his nose broke into bloody pieces, his back hurt, his right shoulder dislocated and then he landed hard on a blue railway car and came to a sudden stop.

Gritting his teeth in pain, Chad moaned out loud. " Aaaaaahhhhhhh, my back! I think I broke my fucking nose! "

Laying there he then noticed a hatch opening and a fat Blackman popping his head out of it. Their eyes met and the man's eyes widened as he said. " Ooh no, my brother what have you done to yourself? "

Laying there with his broken body Chad tried to say something but was too weak to say a word.

Looking around the fat man quickly crawled out of the shaft and onto the cart. Crawling to him the man grabbed a hold of his hand and said comfortingly. " Don't worry I'll help you. "

Grabbing a hold of Chads black outfit the man then dragged him to the shaft where two other men helped to bring him inside the cart.

Chad's body felt numb as he looked at the people inside the cart. There he could see 6 men sitting above boxes and crates. Seeing them he figured that these people were not paying customers of the Trainline.

The 6 men gathered around him and started to argue amongst each other seemingly frustrated with the situation as none of them seemed to know what to do. But to Chads luck he had a solution for this problem.

Going into his system shop he bought a greater healing potion for 10 thousand souls. Then there right before all the men's eyes, a stunningly beautiful red vile of red liquid with a crystal cork materialized into Chads right hand.

" Oh shit. " Chad thought to himself as he realized that the vile had appeared in his right hand that wasn't working because of his dislocated shoulder.

Before he could take the vile a small thin man came forward. He fell on his knees with wide eyes and grabbed the vile into his hands.

The other men seemed to look envious as the fatman said. " Hey, you can't touch that. You don't know what that even is. "

Turning to look at the fat man the thin man said. " I know what this is. It's money and my path to riches! "

Hearing the man's words, a fire was lit inside Chad as then something in his head snapped and he grabbed the man's arm with his left arm.

The thin man turned to him as his hand started to release black steam and he said. " Give it back! "

Seeing the black smoke the man's eyes widened in fear. The veins in his arms turned black and then it spread all throughout his body. All his veins turned black his eyes also and grip loosened and the vail of red liquid fell to the floor.

" What the? " The fat man exclaimed in shock as he and all the other men backed away in fear.

" Aaaaaahhhhhhh! It hurts! It hurts! " The thin man screamed as his eyes started to burn with a black flame and his whole entire body started to melt. Skin, bones and organs, they all melted away leaving behind only a standing black skeleton.

The men looked at it in fear, all of them were left completely speechless at the sight. Standing in its own melted body tissue the skeletons empty eye sockets lit up with a red flame. Then It's head turned to the trembling men.

Seeing this the Fatman fell to his knees, his hands rose toward the skeleton and he spoke fanatically. " Kali Maa! Kali Maa! Kali Aaaaaaarrrrgggghhhhhh! " The man started to scream in agony as the skeleton ripped the man's eyes out and bit into his neck. As he started to feed on his living flesh before everyone's eyes the mans entire body started to melt just like the skinny man before.

The other men seeing this ran for the railway carts exit in fear. In desperation, they latched onto the carts metal lever and pulled on it. But as they pulled on it the skeleton turned to them and pounced on the group of men.

Too frightened to fight back the men just kept screaming and pulling as the skeleton turned them all into melted flesh one by one.

Watching all this from the side Chad quickly popped the cork of the vile and drank it's contents. Immediately his bones went back into place and the bones on his nose grew back. Within mere seconds his body turned back to normal.

Feeling his body fully restored his attention now turned to his new creations. But more importantly, the railway cart started smelling like shit from all the melted flesh and organs.

Chad felt like puking, he needed to get away from here. Looking around he saw the ladders leading to the open hatch in the roof. But he also saw the former fat mans body now turn into a white skeleton with red burning eyes. Eyes that now stared right back at him.

Seeing it, Chad thought. " Wait, it's not attacking me? "

Then it roared out a surprisingly deep monstrous road and Charged towards him.

" Oh, shit! Not friendly! Not friendly! " Chad yelled out as he threw the beautiful vile now empty of it's context at the skeleton.

To his amazement, the skeleton caught the vile in mid-air and now using it like a weapon started swinging at Chad.

With his high agility, the skeletons moves seemed slow to his eyes. Without much effort, he bobbed and weaved around the skeletons attacks.

Seeing an opening in the skeletons sloppy attacks Chad used his sudden strike skill. His fist impacted the skeletons face blowing the front side of it's face into pieces.

[Plus 1xp]

Mouth agape Chad looked at his fist in surprise not believing the power behind his attack. His fists felt strong as if he could crush through small rocks now.

Coming back into reality he could now see 5 skeletons looking on towards him with those burning red eyes. " 4 white skeletons and one black skeleton. Nah, fuck this. I'm out of here! "

Chad thought to himself as he used his sprint ability to make a run for the hatch.
