《Apocalypse in Russian style》 Part 1 Boring exams¡­ all these formulas and definitions are so boring. But what else do you expect from studying in university? ¡°Stop unnecessary thinking!¡± ¨C I ordered myself. ¨C ¡°It¡¯s time to work!¡± Working, hard working. I came to my senses only at early morning. The clock showed 3:45. My eyes were stuck together. I looked around ¨C my roommates were not in the room. Suddenly, I remembered that they went to study classes in the evening. Then I climbed into the cot. That¡¯s all, bye-bye. ¡­ Oh¡­ light. Another morning. It¡¯s time to go to lessons. I tried to open my eyes¡­ second attempt¡­ success. ¨C ¡°Okey, lets go.¡±If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. But something was hanging in front of my eyes. I waved it off. It didn¡¯t help. I focused¡­ ¨C Ogh¡­ ¡ª¨C < Entertain me! > ¡ª¨C This was the inscription in front of my eyes. ¡°¡­It seems, it¡¯s necessary to study less.¡± I do not think that this is the effect of technologies for projecting images ¨C they just have not been invented yet. And it does not seem like a dream ¡­ I noticed more details gradually ¨C the inscription was in the middle of transparent frame. In the corner of the frame there were green tick and red cross. I reached out to a tick. Nothing¡­ So, i need the brain. ¡°Okay¡± ¨C i uttered to myself. The frame changed.

Part 2 - No-o-o!!! - scared cry knocked out of me all unnecessary thoughts. After mental "close" inscriptions disappeared and I rushed to the door. In corridor I witnessed unusual scene just a couple metres from my door. Some guy crushed to the floor one girl. - Hey, guy, can you at first make a better privacy? It''s morning now! Instead of answering, he grabbed the girl''s hand dug his teeth into her forearm. - What the hell!? One more crazy guy? - without thinking twice I grabbed him by the scruff and dragged him away from the girl. He began to get up awkwardly. But when he turned to me... I realize that I wrongly classified this creature. It was a typical zombie in front of me. It''s typical because I often observed such creature, but because it''s how zombies were described in culture. Bloody, wide-open mouth; thoughtless eyes; pale skin.You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version. Everything as a template. His hands reached out to me. But before he reached me, I stepped back, turn around and literally flew at my room. Zombie followed me slowly. But as soon as he entered my room, wooden round stick - baseball bat - met with his face. Unpleasant crunch. Zombie stuttered. But it didn''t last long - the reverse swing of the bat help his neck to turn to unnatural angle, after that the soulless body smoothly sank to the ground. Some words ran in front of my eyes immediately. ----- < Experience: +1 > ----- Now i understand the meaning of that frame with characteristics. But why does HE want to do this? Because of his whims? Boring? I was pulled out thinking by moans in the corridor. I went to the girl and asked: - Are you fine? In response girl lifted her face up... not human face anymore. The same empty eyes and opened mouth. - It seems this infection transmitted with blood. But don''t worry, I''ll treat you. - with powerful swing I crushed her neck. ----- < Experience: +1 > ----- The same word. I said to myself: "window, open!... stats!... characteristics!... Statistics!" after last word the frame appeared in front of my eyes. Value of Experience changed as I thought: ----- < Experience: 2/3 > ----- I wonder what will happen I get another one exp? Another scream came from further part of corridor. - It seems that someone else needs help. Part 3 Part 3. . A little farther in corridor I found the door, where were cries for help. There were two bodies in the room, one of which tried to push away another one, which was covered with blanket. This blanket, it seems, still saved the first bodie. Without thinking twice, I pulled zombie from his former companion and ended his convulsions with final blow to the skull. ------ < Experience: +1, Level: +1 > ------ Then I took a breath and asked surviving boy, whom I identified as my classmate Alexander: - How are you? It didn¡¯t bite you? - No.. - Alex wearily brushed sweat from his forehead, straightened up and looked to his companion: - Misha, why did you kill him!? - Otherwise you would already be like him. You see a body over there? She was bitten too. - I pointed in the corridor. - It seems, the infection transmitted with blood. Didn¡¯t he exactly scratched you?Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on the original website. - I¡¯m sure. Damn, what is going on? When he awoke, he just got up and try to bite me. Did he become zombie? - As you see. And not only he. There was another zombie in corridor. Did you see that message ten minutes ago? I think these all happened at the same time. - Yes, you are right. I just read that message as he attacked me. It was very lucky that he was wearing the blanket... I sat down on the chair. ¡°Statistics¡± - and the frame appeared. ----- < Michael Ignatiev, 19 years old > Level: 2 Experience: 0/4 Strength: 9 Agility: 12 Stamina: 11 < Skills > Cooking: 14 Carpentry: 7 Gun skills: 12 Blade weapons: 2 Thrown weapons: 8 < You have 3 unused ability points > < You can select your rewards > 1) Ability: Audition 2) Special skill: Analysis ----- Hm, I already have audition. Obviously I must choose Analysis. I wonder what it¡¯s doing? ¡°Analysis¡± - I pronounced and this word moved to new category. ----- < Special skills > Analysis: 1 ----- I already understand how the system works, so I think ¡°Analysis¡± and looked at Alex. New frame appeared in front of me. ----- < Alexander Nozhnitsev > ----- Oh, that¡¯s how it works. Having tried on other subjects, I understand that this skill shows the name of subject. Ok, this is clear. But how would I distribute points? I don¡¯t want to hypertrophy neither of my characteristics, so I just distribute them equally. Immediately after that I felt fresh and strong. It works!
