After approximately 20 minutes, Shane successfully eliminated all the zombies lurking in his estate.
He felt fortunate that no additional zombies had appeared beyond the initial count.
In total, he had dispatched 10 zombies: two Crawler Zombies, five Walker Zombies, and three Runner Zombies.
"I should at least construct a wall or maybe a wooden fence to delay their easy entry..." Shane muttered, as he reflected on his experience.
He realized how important it was to form a periter defense. However, the prospect of such a task led him to dismiss the idea for now since he knew it would be quite strenuous to do it alone.
In the end, he decided to consider this once his Territory Lord title, which attracted others to his land, was in effect.
[ Territory Lord ( Legendary Talent ): You can occupy and claim a large piece of land for your developnt. There is a 100% chance of attracting talented inhabitants of the continent to serve you in your territory every five days! ]
"I still have to wait for a while..." Shane muttered.
As he contemplated, a sudden stinging pain flared in his left shoulder, a lingering reminder of the Runner Zombie's attack.
With a resigned sigh, Shane returned to his shelter and removed his jacket, revealing the bruised shoulder.
Lanting the absence of bandages or dicine, as he hadn't chosen the dical Gift Pack, he redirected his focus to his available resources.
Realizing that he had secured water, alleviating concerns about dehydration, he considered utilizing the fire at the crash site to boil the water and prepare a al of instant noodles.
But before that, he recalled to check his current status.
Level: 1
Vitality: 91/100
Spirit: 100/100
Strength: 15
Agility: 15
Luck: 10
Perception: 10
"Nine points?" Shane muttered as he realized the Runner Zombie had damaged him too much. He wasn't even bothered that his level remained the sa after killing ten low-tier zombies that gives the sa Experience Points.
He didn't feel comfortable after seeing the missing nine points, so he directly opened a canned good. He wanted to know if eating a al would allow him to increase his current vitality points!
Nevertheless, as he checked the can, he saw a stew at, probably a mix of beef and pork seasoned with salt, various spices, and chopped onions. It seed that it would really fill his stomach.
'Looks good...'
Since he didn't have a spoon, he just gobbled it up. After a few minutes, he managed to finish it up. Then, he took out so water from his Inventory to clean up the remaining sauce in the can before using it as his cup.
"Ahh..."
After doing all of this, he realized that he just made a mistake!
The sll of his food was wafting throughout the small house, and it could attract zombies if they could use their sense of sll!
"Not good."
Without hesitation, Shane swiftly relocated to the alternate house he had prepared.
With Cloud's assurance that no zombies were within 30 ters, Shane could work more efficiently without the need for constant vigilance.
Though he might have been overreacting, considering that zombies were unlikely to rely on their sense of sll, Shane wasn't willing to take any chances.
It was better to be safe!
After so ti, Shane finished transferring his belongings to the new location.
"Finally!"
He exclaid as he settled into his tent.
After catching his breath, it was then that he rembered to check if his vitality had increased after his al.
"Status..." he muttered, prompting the appearance of his attributes panel.
To his delight, he observed that his Vitality points had risen from 91 to 93, a gain of two points.
Whether due to his natural healing ability or the food, he was pleased to note the gradual recovery from his injury.
As Shane contemplated getting so rest, Cloud, the A.I. Assistant, made a report.
[ Zombie Blood Analysis Completed. ]
[ Do you like to see the result? ]
Eager to learn more, Shane promptly responded, "Yes! Let see..."
In an instant, the A.I. showed him a long report! Shane didn't expect that it would have so much information!
[ Runner Zombie Blood Analysis Report

The lengthy report left Shane feeling sowhat dizzy.
In fact, he didn't even manage to finish reading it, sensing that he wouldn't fully comprehend the contents. He only skimd through it.
'I should tell Cloud just to make a short report next ti...' Shane thought as he at least appreciated the conclusion at the end of the result.
"Alright, take all the blood samples I have... I have no better use anyway."
