Zorvax, still feeling a sense of newfound potential after his recent evolution, was surprised to see that the system interface had a new addition. In addition to the familiar [Evolve] and [Stats] options, there was now a [Summon] option. His curiosity piqued, he mused aloud, "Summon? What could this be?"
He contemplated the possibilities. Was this option about summoning creatures or entities to aid him in this undead world? The idea of summoning beings or creatures to help him navigate the challenges of this world intrigued him, and he decided to choose the [Summon] option to see what it entailed.
However, as soon as he selected it, a system panel appeared before him, displaying the contents of the [Summon List]:

[Summon List]
[None]

Upon seeing the list, Zorvax was momentarily confused. He scratched his head and muttered, "None? I don't understand. How can it be empty?" It was a puzzling situation. He had expected to find various options or beings to summon, but the list seemed devoid of any entries.
Feeling somewhat baffled by the system's response, Zorvax temporarily ignored it. Perhaps the [Summon] option would be populated with choices or creatures in the future, or maybe it was meant for something he had yet to discover. The evolving world of the undead held many mysteries, and Zorvax was determined to explore them all, even if it meant embracing moments of confusion along the way.
Zorvax, still contemplating the mysterious [Summon] option, turned his attention back to the familiar [Evolve] option. He was eager to explore what the system had in store for his future evolution. With a simple click, the [Evolution List] appeared before him, and his eyes widened in shock at what he saw:

Zorvax sat there. Shock etched across his pale, undead face. The [Evolution List] had laid bare the requirements for his next stage of evolution, and the magnitude of the task ahead was staggering. He couldn't help but comment, "This is crazy! 5000 Evolution Points, a Level 3 Zombie Core, and specific-colored cores for each option? That's a lot to ask for."
With a heavy sigh, he smacked his hand against his forehead, the sound echoing through the desolate landscape. "How am I supposed to gather all of this?" he muttered in frustration. The road to evolution was turning out to be a monumental challenge, and he felt the weight of the requirements pressing down on him.
But the biggest shock was yet to come. As Zorvax turned his attention to the fourth option, his eyes widened, and his jaw dropped open. He was so taken aback that he almost lost his balance, stumbling back a step. His shock turned to cursing, as he exclaimed, "This is insane! Unlocking Option 1, 2, and 3, 10,000 Evolution Points, 3 Level 3 Zombie Core, and a Black Core? It's like a nightmare!"
The thought of reaching the fourth option with its seemingly insurmountable requirements was almost enough to make Zorvax collapse. The road to evolution had taken an unexpected turn into a realm of extreme difficulty, and he felt like he was faced with an impossible task. But he also had something that was still confusing for him about the evolution list.
"What the hell is a colored core?" Zorvax exclaimed, his confusion deepening. The mention of "Red, Blue, and Green Cores" in the requirements for the new options had left him perplexed. It was something he had never heard of in his undead journey.
As he pondered the challenge before him, he admitted, "I won't give up, but I truly don't know where to start." The idea of gathering 5000 Evolution Points, acquiring a Level 3 Zombie Core, and obtaining these mysterious colored cores seemed like an enormous puzzle, and he had yet to find the missing pieces.
With a heavy heart and a sigh of resignation, he realized that the path ahead was filled with uncertainties and hurdles. The world of the undead was proving to be even more enigmatic than he had initially thought, and he had a long journey ahead to unlock the mysterious options.
Looking around at the desolate landscape, Zorvax couldn't help but feel a sense of isolation and uncertainty. The challenges of evolution were daunting, and he was determined to find a way to overcome them, even if it meant exploring the unknown and unraveling the secrets of the colored cores.
His resolve was unwavering, but the road ahead was shrouded in mystery. With a final glance at the [Evolution List], he muttered, "I may not know where to start, but I'll find a way. I've come this far, and I won't stop now." The adventure in this evolving world continued, and Zorvax was ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead, no matter how unfamiliar or complex they might be.
As Zorvax contemplated the challenges of his next evolution, a sudden realization dawned on him. He had been about to speak his thoughts out loud when he noticed that something had changed. His voice sounded normal, and his body seemed different.
With a sense of wonder, Zorvax said, "I can talk normally now." His previous guttural and raspy speech had been replaced with a clear, human-like voice. It was as if his body had undergone further transformation, not just in appearance but also in its capabilities.
With this newfound ability to communicate, Zorvax felt a renewed sense of purpose. He knew that he needed information about the world, its inhabitants, and its dynamics to formulate his next plan. He looked around at the desolate surroundings and then said, "Now, let's go to the human group first. I need to gather information about this world and its current state."
Zorvax then searched his surroundings and was fortunate to come across a set of clothes, surprisingly intact and large enough to fit his transformed body. They covered him from head to toe, offering protection from the elements and hiding his undead appearance. In addition, he found a mask that concealed his face, ensuring he could blend in with the human group he intended to approach.
As he donned the clothing and secured the mask, he commented, "This will help me look less like a zombie and more like one of them." The attire offered a semblance of normalcy, a crucial element for his upcoming interaction with the human survivors.
Fully dressed and masked, Zorvax felt more prepared than ever to face the challenges of this evolving world. With his appearance concealed and his newfound ability to communicate, he was ready to venture towards the human group, hoping to gather valuable information about the world they all now inhabited.
