It was beautiful. Daz could see the bright moon shining down upon him and his surroundings. He had to thank the moon for being there tonight because, without her warm glow, he would have never of been able to see the zombies or himself for that matter if she wasn't present. Daz's face had suffused a smile before he shivered slightly. Whether this shiver was due to the cold October night, or due to his blood loss was up for debate.
He turned his gaze downwards and began reading the blue screens.

"W-What?" Daz mumbled in a dazed state. He was struggling very much so to stay conscious. All he wanted right now was to go to the shop option that was mentioned in the first announcement, so he quickly spat out the first name he thought of. "Daz. Select name 'Daz'."
Confirmed. Name 'Daz' has been selected. Would you like for your name to be used on the ranking board for total gained merit points and total kills? Doing so shall elevate your status and will unlock more system features, such as more products in the shop. |
"YES! DO IT!" Daz shouted before he immediately regretted doing so. He was in no condition to shout, what with his skin turning paler and colder by the second.
Confirmed. Name has been uploaded. Your overall point ranking is #542, and your overall kill ranking is #1,098. |
Due to being in the top 1000 ranks for overall points, the host has been granted [Golden-level] access to the system and shop. |
Would you like to access the shop now? Golden access grants you permissions to voice out your desired item and I shall scan to see if we have what you desire. |
Due to being in the top 10,000 ranks for overall kills, gained the right to select one SS-Rank skill (Middle Tier) for free. |
"Yes... please... Zombie cure... and heal my body... please..." he uttered. Daz could feel his life slowly slipping from his grasps. He was so close, so very very close. He couldn't give up now, not now, not when a solution lay before his very eyes!'So there is a shop...' Daz thought with a self-mocking tone.
Confirmed. Desired items exist. [Basic Zombie Infection Cure] Price 1,000 merit points. [Basic Body Recovery Gel] Price 500 merit points. |
Confirm purchase and usage? |
"C-Confirm..." came Daz's weak reply. His life was now hanging by merely a thread. A few more seconds and he would be dead.
Confirmed purchase. |
Injecting host with [Basic Zombie Infection Cure] injecting host with [Basic Body Recovery Gel]. 1,500 points have been deducted from the host's total balance. |
The total merit balance of the host is now 83,360. |
Daz could see another blue screen just before his eyes closed so he couldn't quite catch what it said, but he imagined it was something along of lines of asking him if he wanted to buy more things, but for now, all Daz wanted to do was sleep.
He needed to rest in preparation for today's attack at twelve o'clock in the afternoon. Currently, it was roughly one in the morning and Daz was planning to only sleep for a few hours at most. This time, he would be ready for the attack.
