## Chapter 2
As I stood there, frozen in shock, the world around me continued to crumble. The eerie quiet was suddenly shattered by the sound of shuffling footsteps and groaning. I turned to see a horde of terrifying zombies emerging from the heart of the destruction.
These undead creatures, born from the energy of the supernova, began to wreak havoc on the city. The screams of the terrified populace filled the air as the zombies rampaged through the streets.
One of the zombies, its eyes fixed on me, charged in my direction. I reacted on instinct, punching it hard to the ground with my eyes closed. When I opened them, I was met with a sight that made my blood run cold.
As I watched in amazement, I felt a strange, tingling sensation coursing through my veins. It was as if my body was being rewritten, my cells transformed by the energy of the supernova.
I looked down at my hands, and they were glowing with a faint, blue light. I felt a surge of power, unlike anything I had ever experienced before.
The other zombies, sensing my newfound abilities, turned to gaze at me. Our eyes locked, and I felt a jolt of electricity run through my body. Without thinking, I charged towards the zombies, my hands glowing with energy.
I struck down zombie after zombie, each blow more powerful than the last. But as I fought, I realized that a blue page was at my front with some readings, which I later came to know as the system.
The system displayed my stats:
- Level: 1
- Strength: 17
- Speed: 19
- Intelligence: 87
- Mana: 2
- Combat Power: 125 (the addition of the four stats)
I wondered if killing zombies would increase my stats. It seemed that I had grown stronger during this calamity.
With my newfound awareness, I could see the zombies' movements, anticipating their attacks before they happened. I took down the zombies with ease, moving through the hordes with a fluidity that was both exhilarating and terrifying.
As I fought, I began to uncover the secrets of the supernova and the system. I could feel they were in sync with my body and veins, imbuing me with powers that I never thought possible.
But with great power comes great responsibility. I knew that I had to use my abilities wisely, to protect the innocent and survive in this new world.
