The Mutation

Systems Info

Intro

Hello my lovely readers!

You may not want to read this but do so if you are interested in how the system of this story works. This will also explain a few things that may be confusing to you.

Awakening

First off, not everyone is gonna be able to awaken. But there will be people who are given certain abilities, meaning that they won't have the system per se but will be given mana and a skill, or skills, best suited for their person.

The way a person awakens is by killing a certain amount of infected. Everyone awakens differently, it all really depends on their will and intentions. If someone has a strong will or a serious goal, they will be gifted, or blessed with the system. A non-player could awaken a skill and not even realize it, or they could have already had that skill and didn't know until they used it or a player used an observe skill on them.

Also non-players could end having a skill and ended up using it before the apocalypse. Meaning that skill could have been a normal everyday thing that you were good at until the outbreak happened, and it became a passive/physical skill.

The amount of infected you are required to kill depends on your strength or, once again, strong will (strong emotion).

Shop

Now the shop is obvious, the name gives it away. It's basically where players are able to buy whatever it is that they need. The shop has access to a different variety of potions, weapons, armor, and 'one time use' scrolls. I'll go more into detail about the one time use scrolls in a minute.

The shop will offer food and water. Though it won't be cheap, it'll be like any other item there. It'll cost around 50,000 PP depending on the food. Seeds, fruits, and/or veggies will cost around 100-200,000 PP. (depending on size and type).

The reason I'm making it expensive is because of how easy it is to obtain Cores for PP.

The shop is also only accessible to the first 100 players, and only players. It is not available to people who don't have the system nor is it available to anyone who awakened after the first 100.

Another thing about the shop is that different ranked items have different price ranges. Anything ranked above 'E' is going to cost around 1,000,000 PP, and anything that isn't assigned a rank and instead only gives buffs are priced around 300-450,000 PP.

Anything ranked 'B-D' is between 2 and 4,000,000. And lastly anything ranked 'B+' and higher is over 5,000,000 PP.

PP

PP, also known as 'Player Points', is used as currency for the systems shop. As explained, the systems shop is only accessible to those within the first 100 players. If you are not one of those players, PP and 'Shop' will not be available for you.

PP can be earned by leveling up or awakening as a player. Another way to obtain PP is by exchanging it for Cores. Cores are a drop you get from killing an infected. Different cores have a different amount of PP worth.

Red Cores - 20,000 PP
Mid-Red Cores - 25,000 PP
High-Red Cores - 30,000 PP
Orange Cores - 45,000 PP
Mid-Orange Cores - 50,000 PP
High-Orange Cores - 55,000 PP
Yellow Cores - 70,000 PP
Mid-Yellow Cores - 75,000 PP
High-Yellow Cores - 80,000 PP
Green Cores - 210,000 PP
High-Green Cores - 225,000 PP
Blue Cores - 400,000 PP
Mid-Blue Cores - 450,000 PP
High-Blue Cores - 500,000 PP
Purple Cores - 800,000 PP
Mid-Purple Cores - 850,000 PP
High Purple - 900,000 PP
High-Black Cores - 3,000,000 PP

Quests

Not much to say on quests. It's going to be more of you having to unlock them than really purposefully doing them. Though the rewards are definitely worth it.
