Wow, a lot to digest here. First of all, zombies can evolve? But they're dead, isn't evolution based on survival? Charles Darwin would flip from his grave if he knew about this. Those philosophies students and biology student would also debate like crazy if they knew about this.
Who cares I'm not on earth anyway, if this will make them stronger I don't care. I would really like it if Frank picks the Commander Zombie, but I will let him decide by himself because if he likes his evolution he might become stronger that way. Let's just ask him.
"So Frank what will you choose for your evolution?"
"Master, I would like to evolve into a Commander Zombie," he said resolutely.
"So why Commander Zombie?" I asked with glee, really happy that he decided to pick commander zombie.
"I want to be stronger and I also want to lead my team efficiently. When the black bear attacked us I panicked, I didn't lead my team and just attacked the bear blindly. If I become a commander zombie I might be able to protect my team and lead them to victory. I also want to be strong enough to protect you from any enemy, that's why I need my team and abilities of a commander zombie." he said without any doubt in his eyes.

"You really thought this through, Commander Zombie it is then."
When I picked the Commander Zombie, Frank's body is covered with light and he began to change. His skin became darker and his muscles more defined. He now has a nose and eyes, the eyes are blood red in color, all of his bones have been covered with muscle and skin. Now it's hard to tell him apart from a regular human.
"Thank you, Master," he said while bowing.
"Stand up Frank, now enjoy your new form," I said happy for him.
Let's take a look at his new status.
Monster Status Name: Frank Race: Undead(Commander Zombie) Information A dungeon undead created with mana from Adam Undead Dungeon. After fighting and leading undead troops, he is now a Commander Zombie. Skill [Zombie Virus II] [Limit Break] [Leadership] [Berserker] [Sword Mastery] [Roar] Leadership Passive Skill Level: 3 This skill enhances Frank's ability to command and lead a group of people. It also enhances decision-making skill, tactics, and strategies. Sword Mastery Passive Skill Level: 3 This skill increases the damage of sword and dagger type weapon. Roar Active Skill Level: 1 Frank lets out a roar that strengthens his allies while simultaneously weaken his enemies. This lasts for 30 seconds with a range of 15 meters.
Frank is a lot stronger now, but I don't really know how strong since there is nothing to compare him to. I guess he now he can beat the owl if he is with his team and Helen and Butch helping him. I should really test his strength, that roar skill will be useful when we fight with the elves later, to weaken the enemies while strengthening our own can change the tide of battle to our side.
A blue screen appeared in front of me, I smiled. Today just gets better and better. I saw Butch came into the core room, he looks excited. He's probably here to tell me about the blue screen.

Due to meeting special conditions, your zombie can evolve into:
Bomber Zombie
Bomber Zombies are zombies with massive weight and great physical strength. They are slow because of their massive weight. Bomber Zombie explodes when they die.
Unlocked Condition: Eat copious amounts of sulfur, potassium nitrate, coal or charcoal.
"Do you want to evolve Butch?"
He nodded.
After picking the Bomber Zombie, just like Frank Butch body got covered in light and he began to change. He became taller and his body grows in size. His height now is close to Frank which is around 180 cm and his weight is at least 130 kg. He doesn't look fat but his not muscular either, his body looks like a sumo wrestler. At least his trademark bite mark on his head is still there.
"Thanks, Boss I feel explosively stronger now," he said smiling.
He loses his sluggish voice which is a shame, oh please don't let this evolution turn him into a pun zombie, I hope the explosive part is just a coincidence. Now let's take a look at his new status.
Monster Status Name: Butch Race: Undead (Bomber Zombie) Information A dungeon undead created with mana from Adam Undead Dungeon. After eating copious amounts of minerals, he is now a Bomber Zombie. Skill [Zombie Virus II] [Limit Break] [Self Destruct] [Explosive Fist] Self Destruct Passive Skill Level: MAX This skill will trigger when Butch died. He will explode with a 10-meter radius. Explosive Fist Active Skill Level: 1 This skill allows Butch’s fist to cause an explosion when hitting an enemy.
While I was looking at Butch new status Helen came to the core room. She looks excited, it looks like she found something important while scouting the forest. I looked at her to show that I was paying attention.
"*clack* *clack* *clack* *clack* *clack* *clack*"
"Frank can you please translate what she said?"
"I found another guardian, my lord, that's what she said, Master."
I guess now we have a test dummy for our new evolved zombies.

Contact Through Voided Lenses
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Edit: Fixed some inaccuracies in the synopsis. The void is a vast unexplored ocean filled with various wonders and dangers all waiting to be explored by those brave enough to travel and record. Many souls do find themselves brave enough to face the vast distances, the various risks to personal safety and do the hundreds of task required on a craft. However, at times the void itself can be boring with absolutely nothing to do but as time pass and more and better technology is reached, things got better. The various trips got faster, communications became faster than light and you can be home to see your loved ones after only months now. Through the various planets whether rocky or gaseous, the various stars whether small or giant, the various systems both eerily similar or completely alien. As part of an expeditionary scientific exploratory survey craft, one could see that the void offers no reprieve from all the discoveries and wonders. At times, it can feel empty and silent where no soul can hear you scream and at others it can be overwhelming with sudden phenomenon that can overwhelm the brightest of minds. The void itself is a truly fascinating ocean where one must chart the various islands or drown in its deadly tidal waves. But the question still remained no matter how you try to hide it in of itself… is there truly other intelligent life out there? Are we alone in this ocean? Those very questions still haunt the minds of those on the crafts themselves as they brace for every jump ready for the unknown and the known. Many would try to explain that yes there is other intelligent life out there whilst other still say no after 2 centuries of continuous flight out of the home system. Still, those are questions that bury deep in the minds of the crew and those at home as the voidcraft jumps to a system with a single yellow star orbited by 8 other planets with one crowning blue jewel being the 3rd closest with its 5 oceans and 7 continents, a planet called Dirt which is inhabited by a primitive species called Humanity. Hello, author here and this is my newest dive into writing particularly for the Writathon currently in progress being my first one. I hope you give me story a try but in case you still want more information on what you’re getting into, below are some pointers about the story itself. First Contact: CTVL is a story about a first contact scenario between an advanced alien civilization and a slightly more advanced modern day humanity on their planet called Dirt. Characters: The story will take place mainly on the perspective of the alien visitors themselves though there will be human POV characters who will show how the rest of humanity react through media and forums. Action: It won’t be an actual alien invasion but you have to see for yourself how well first contact went. Sci-Fi: I will be very forward here, I WILL bend the rules of physics in order to add in parts of the plot and there WILL be parts that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Theme: It will be a brooding story talking about the futility of pe… Just kidding, it’s mostly wholesome stuff to be honest here. Alien: The aliens themselves will… actually why should I tell you, you have to go and read it to find out what the aliens are though I will draw a few things here and there to aid in the process. Extra tidbit: If you are a grammar nazi or someone who really wants a realistic scifi story... this story is probably not for you at all. Anyways, that’s pretty much all I can say before I spoil something major of the plot itself, the story is slice of life so make sure that type of story is what you like because I am terrible with anything else as I found out, anyways, have a good time everyone and good luck to the other Writathon participants.
