Global Awakening: Apocalypse Ender's Chronicle

48  Observer

Shane opened the Survivor Store and found the ammunition he needed for his Revolver…

He had been waiting for this ammunition to appear, and finally, his long wait was over. Furthermore, all the items in the Survivor Store are entirely new! He had never seen them before!

[ Ammunition Box: A metal box that contains 50 rounds of .44 Magnum bullets for revolvers. It can be used by a Survivor who wants to reload their firearm and deal more damage to Zombies but with a limited supply and weight. It has a +70% chance of penetrating zombie armor and a +50% chance of causing knockback. Price: 25 Zombie Cores Quantity: 5/5 ]

[Scavenger's Knife ( Uncommon ): A sharp and sturdy knife that can be used as a weapon or a tool. It can be used by a survivor who wants to cut, stab, or slice zombies or other materials, but with limited durability and reach. It has a +80% chance of causing bleeding. Price: 10 Zombie Cores Quantity: 5/5 ]

[ Binoculars ( Rare ): A mysterious pair of optical devices that magnify distant objects. It can be used by a survivor who wants to scout, spy, or snipe zombies or other survivors, but with a limited field of view and accuracy. It has a +5% chance of zooming in 100 times and a +10% chance of revealing hidden or unexpected details.

Price: 35 Zombie Cores

Quantity: 6/6 ]

"There's a 5 percent chance that it will zoom 100 times?" Shane muttered as he read the details of the Binoculars. There was also a 10 percent chance of revealing some hidden information to his target of observation.

It was quite mysterious indeed, just like how it was described. 'I might as well buy this one to see how it works.' Shane thought.

Since he had plenty of money, or Zombie Cores, in his inventory, he didn't have to live frugally anymore.

Anyway, he continued to check the other three new items sold in the store.

[ Energy Bar x5: A nutritious and delicious snack that can boost the user's energy and stamina. It can be used by a survivor who wants to run, fight, or work longer, but with a limited effect and bland taste. It increases the user's speed and reduces the user's hunger for at least 2 hours. 15:41

Quantity: 10/10 ]

[ Sunglasses ( Uncommon ): A pair of glasses that can protect the user's eyes from glare and UV rays. They are made of plastic and metal and have tinted lenses and frames. They also provide some resistance to light-based attacks from Flasher Zombies, reducing the damage and blind effect. Price: 7 Zombie Cores Quantity: 2/2 ]

"Wait… What? There's a Flasher Zombie?" Shane's eyes widened as he read the description. It seemed that they were really proceeding to the next phase of the Zombie Apocalypse. He had just learned a new type of Zombie that could possibly attack his territory or perhaps join in the next Zombie Wave.

With that in consideration, Shane decided to purchase the Sunglasses as well.

The Flasher Zombie may not visit him today, but they might come soon. He had to purchase the Sunglasses now as they may not appear at the time that he needed them.

He then checked the last item in the store.

[ Pickaxe ( Common ): A tool that can be used to mine ore, stone, or other materials. It is made of mysterious steel and has a wooden handle and a pointed head. Price: 10 Zombie Cores Quantity: 4/4 ]

Finally, Harper would no longer have to use the poorly made Pickaxe he had.

In the end, Shane purchased 4 Pickaxes, 2 Sunglasses, 2 Scavenger's Knife, 10 sets of Energy Bars, 1 Binocular, and 5 Ammunition Boxes for his Revolver. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Just like that, Shane spent 244 Zombie Cores!

Nevertheless, he thought it was worth it. He wanted to equip himself and his friends with the best items possible, to increase their chances of survival.

He checked the items he bought, admiring their quality and usefulness. He was especially pleased with the Ammunition Boxes, which would allow him to use his Revolver more often and more effectively. ***

But while Shane was busy inspecting his purchases, unbeknownst to him, there was someone watching them from a distance. "Interesting… I didn't expect that there's already a community close to us."

This person was on top of a tree and was using a handheld telescope to spy on Shane's group. He was a man, about 30 years old, with a slim and wiry build with a cunning and greedy face. He had short brown hair, a stubble beard, and a scar on his nose. Although he had some leaves and branches on his body to camouflage himself, one could still see that he wore a leather jacket, jeans, and a pair of boots. Furthermore, he had a short dagger and a revolver on his belt.

His name was Franky, and he was the leader of a newly established group of Survivors who had been roaming the area for a while. Because they fled from their Zombie Wave, they barely received some rewards, and they were running out of resources.

At this time, they had been looking for a place to settle down or at least to loot and plunder. Franky knew that as long as they found a target, their group of five people could work together!

"Let's continue to observe for now…" Franky muttered to himself.

He looked at the estate through his telescope, and he saw Shane and his friends. He saw the fence, the shelter, the traps, the dog, and other stuff being worked on by the group. "Hmm… They looked so lively, I guess they're not worried about food, huh…" He muttered to himself, licking his lips. He was not intimidated by the sight of the survivors nor by their defenses. He was only excited by the prospect of taking their resources by force if necessary.

After all, with his Exceptional Talent, he has nothing to be afraid of!
