[Initializing Fresh spawn protocol...]

Soo Min-ji blinked her eyes, her head still pounding from the encounter with that creature.
"What is this? Aegenesis system? What does that mean?"

[Level 1: Rank E; Fresh spawn]
So those creatures were zombies?
Her jaws dropped slightly, "What is going on? What is this?"
She thrust her hand trying to touch it, she clicked on it.
A new interface appeared. Stats. Skills. Quests.
"It did say it was AEGENESIS system, if this is a system, would this help me in this place that I am in?"
Her fingers hovered over the screen before tapping on stats.
A new interface appeared.

She narrowed her eyes carefully reading the information on the screen, "Hm, these are really poor, save for the stamina. If I have to survive in this place all on my own, I would have to increase my strength!"
"System, how do I do this?" She folded her arms across her chest.
[Beep! By completing your daily tasks, and completing quests!]
She took in a deep breath, "Okay, what is my first task then?"
[Locate the nearest pool of water, (Hidden within 2.5km radius)]
[Defeat any Flesh walker on the way.]
[Retrieve a level one survival weapon]
Her jaws dropped, "What? How am I supposed to do this?"
[Reward: LP +10 points, +1 PER, +1 INT, +3 STR]
"Okay, but at least show me how I am supposed to do this?"
[Host is on a mission to build a new world from the scratch! Completing these tasks eventually will make you the ruler of your new world!]
Her eyes widened, "Wait.. what?"
Ding! The holographic screen flickered out of her sight.
"What a hell of a sassy system I've got!" She rolled her eyes so hard, she thought it would eventually stick in her sockets.
"Oh well, since I am thirsty I should as well find this pool of water. It said hidden within 2.5km radius."
Bending down, she began to write on the sand, calculating the radius of where the pool could possibly be from where she stood. Good thing she was a math genius back then im high school, and she got her answer.
"Yes!" She held her hands up in triumph.
The holographic screen flickered back in front of her again.
[Host has done a good job in finding out the location of the pool! +2 INT]
A small smile tugged at the corner of her lips, "To be a genius," she got back to her feet, walking in the direction she had just calculated was the location of the pool of water.
While she just started her journey, a flesh walker came out of nowhere, and leapt at her.
With all of her might, she spun, kicking it back, smashing it mid air, and poof ! It disappeared.
[Beep! You just defeated a Flesh walker, LP +10 points!]
"That makes my leveling points 20, phew, I am nailing this!" A grin spread across her face.
She continued her walk, towards the pool's location.
"Wait, how do I even know if it is day or night time? Why are the skies red and not blue?" She arched her brow.
She expected the holographic screen to appear out of nowhere, and tell her why it was red, but it didn't. It didn't come out at all.
"Uh.. hello? Screen?" She creased her brows, "How am I supposed to call it out when I need it?" Her lips turned downwards.
A squeak was heard in a distance. Soo Min-ji raised her eyes to see what it was, but she didn't see anything.
"Apart from those zombies, do we have any other creatures here?" She squinted her eyes, looking around but saw nothing coming her way.
She heard the squeak, but louder this time. It was as if someone, or something was calling for help, "Where is that coming from?" She increased her pace towards the direction of the sound.
As she got closer, it got louder, until she found a small tiny furry ball with large puppy eyes staring at her.
"Awee, you sweet little thing, are you lost?" She reached out to hold it.
As soon as her hand got closer, dead arms elongated out of its body, and swiped at her.
She panicked, jumping backwards, "What is that?" She shrilled.
The fur on this creature began to recede back into its skin, and the decay was more evident than before. Its small rotting feet popped out of nowhere, while it's jagged yellow teeth elongated.
"They have the ability to shape shift?" She almost yelled, quickly kicking it back, but this time it did not disappear.
"What the actual hell?" Her jaws dropped as she saw it increase in height, and size till about half her size.
Out of nowhere, the holographic screen appeared.
[Beep! Level 2 Zombie- Shambler detected!]
Her eyes widened in terror, "Level 2? Excuse me? I'm still a fresh spawn!" She immediately took to her heels.
"You are beginning to freak me out, why am I seeing level 2 zombie?!" She cursed.
[It appears this region happens to harbor a lot of shamblers!]
"I can not keep running away, it will catch up with me! Help!"
[You have to use your stamina in defeating it! Shamblers lack any sense of stamina at all.]
Use her stamina huh?
Alright then.
She stopped in her tracks, which also caused the Shambler to stop too.
She looked over her shoulders to look at it, "I just have to outrun you then," she turned right around it.
"Catch me if you can dead brains!" She took off.
The roaring Shambler went after her, determined to catch up with her.
Soo Min-ji ran 1.18 miles. She wasn't feeling all that tired, but she did feel a little dizzy.
Looking back at the Shambler, she noticed it was already losing its skin, its eyes had rotated back into thier sockets, while it was slowing down greatly.
Taking this as an opportunity, she ran back to it, pushing it down, then crushing its head before it could react.
Black blood spewed from its head before it finally vanished.
Poof!
She stooped to hold her knees, "Good riddance," she whispered breathlessly.
The holographic screen appeared in front of her once more

She stared at the screen with a twitching eye, "I almost died!"
