Level up Zombie

With everyone out of the room, Zain could finally feast on the brain peacefully. It was a weird thing to think about, even in Zain's mind, but it was something that he would just have to do. His body functionality would go up to hundred percent again even though it hadn't dropped down as much as last time, and more importantly, he would now get the added benefit.

Rather than using his hands to crack the Doctor's skull open, Zain decided to do things in a more humane way and used one of the medical tools to prop the head open. After that, it was time to do the disgusting act that didn't seem so disgusting.

It didn't take long for Zain to gobble it down. After the first bite, which would feel strange, his hand would flow the brains into his mouth. It was one of the acts that reminded Zain that he was, in fact, a zombie.

After finishing consuming the brain, a few notifications popped up in front of him, and the contents in them were a bit unexpected.

[The brain that has been consumed has a high level of intelligence.]

[+5 Intelligence]

'This wasn't part of the skills,' Zain thought. 'I've gotten different signs from consuming brains before, but this is amazing. This is a huge improvement without the need to level up.'

It wasn't the only thing Zain got out of it all though. As he gulped down the brain, information started to flow in his head. It was a strange rush, and it wasn't quite clear what information it was that he was obtaining. When the feeling finally went away, honestly, Zain felt no different.

'The skill said I would gain some knowledge. Is that part of the stats or?' Zain started to look at the medical tool that was on the table and could tell it was a craniotome cutter. Then there was the autopsy saw that he had used to open up the skull in the first place.

Both of these things, Zain had no knowledge of beforehand, but now he did. It looked like the system's skills were coming through once again.

'How is this even possible in the name of science? I guess I shouldn't worry too much about that, I mean, how am I even alive, and this system and everything around me just can't simply be explained by science. Well, I guess the only thing that's left is to look through the Doctor's history for some answers.'

When Zain brought up the system, just like in Shark's case, there was a video available, and it allowed him to go through every part of the memory, and that was exactly what he was doing.

It didn't come as a surprise that some of the things that he could see the Doctor doing were forms of debt. For example, there were quite a few times when the Doctor had asked for sexual favours to pay off some of the others' debt.

At the same time, there were scenes of the experiments on the creatures he had gone through. None of these was practically helpful but made Zain feel less guilty about killing the Doctor, not that he had a lot to begin with.

There was no useful information, and although Zain could follow the experiments the Doctor was doing to some degree, he had no understanding of why the latter was doing certain things. It was clear that not all of the knowledge from the Doctor had been passed on.

Or it was more like he had the ingredients and understood everything but didn't know how to bake a cake. So the information was somewhat useless. However, eventually going through everything, he found what the Doctor was looking for from the conversation between Pink's mother and the Doctor.

Playing the video carefully, Zain heard every word coming from the Doctor's mouth.

'Now I see, I see how he was able to use this against us, but now with this knowledge, we can get past this.'

It was then that Zain was going to end the video there, right down a list of the medicine that was needed and go from there, but for some reason, he thought he would continue to watch the video just in case to the end.

As he did, Zain was able to listen to the conversation that had happened in the room before they had entered.

'The Doctor's final experiment. In the video, there was nothing about that. I guess he didn't work on it on the last day, but if it was something like his final experiment, it had to be something important, and now it's inside Kelly. Brandon saw the whole thing, but I understand why he didn't tell us.' Zain thought to himself.

The others were exploring the hospital in case Zain's plan didn't quite work out. Trying to see if they could find any survivors or maybe even some files on the computer system and more. As they explored the hospital more though, they noticed that most of the computers had been destroyed.

The Doctor had clearly ruled over this place with an iron fist, not giving a chance for anyone to rise in any way at all.

"This place has power generators, and the electricity is working quite well here. I don't know how long they will last, but it's quite a good base to stay at." Brandon said. "Also, there is general medicine that we can still use that the people and maybe even separate the sick from the healthy."

"Maybe we could move all the sick people to the hospital with a few of the guards," Dave said. "This way, the others won't have to worry about being sick."

"That's a good idea, but..." Brandon wasn't sure how willing people would allow themselves to be separated, and on top of that, the Doctor had stated it was a disease that could wipe out all of them. Meaning it was dangerous if they didn't know what it was or with no cure, people wouldn't just head to the hospital."

Either way, they continued to explore, and they also knew they needed to do more than that because when looking around their place, there were plenty of dead bodies everywhere. They needed to clear the dead bodies if there was any chance of them using the place.

"I can see the worried look on your faces, Pink, and I will clear the place for you. We can do the dirty work, so don't have to worry." Kun suggested.

"Ah, so very nice of you to volunteer me before even asking me." Pink rolled her eyes, but she knew why Kun was suggesting such a thing.

At the same time, the two of them could perhaps find a brain or so that they could store away and see for themselves. Whatever other opportunity they would get, the hospital would even have a freezer section to keep the brains, or maybe there were already several brains stored in a place like this anyway.

After searching all of the floors though, they realised that there wasn't any person alive in the place. The zombies had managed to get them all, and strangely, there were no zombies inside as well. Brandon was looking at the dead bodies that were on the ground, or more particularly, he was looking at the dead zombie bodies.

'How did the zombies die? They don't have bullets or large winds from knives and axes. It looks almost as if they were beaten and bitten to death as well. Did the zombies fight amongst each other?' Brandon thought, but he knew that was unlikely.

The original reception area where they came in was the biggest mess, and they were sorting bodies in a temporary room, for now, that was used to keep the dead in the hospital in the first place. It was easier than they thought with the tools and such for them to move, and with Kun and Pink's extra strength, the group was able to get to work fast.

They did wonder where Zain was and what he was doing since he had been gone a few hours, and unbeknownst to them, he was watching all of the video footage, trying to find the information or anything else.

The reception was cleared of bodies now, but there were still blood marks and more, but they were only planning to do a tidy-up for now, not do a thorough cleaning. Because once they return to Ryan, they could send more people here and get the whole place up to standard to convert this place into a second base of some sort.

The thought of returning came in everyone's mind when Zain had finally come down and was in the reception room as well with a piece of paper in his hand.

"I have some good news for you, we have enough medicine to cure everyone, and I know what the disease is," Zain said as he addressed them all.

The others didn't question how he knew about this. They were just happy that he did and were following the unspoken rule of not asking too much.

"The condition that they are suffering from is...is.." Zain's voice started to stutter there as his body began to sway, and once again, his vision was fading.

'Damn it, it's happening again! What was the trigger this time...and why now in front of everyone?' Zain gritted his teeth, trying to keep his senses.
