INVENTOR! KRAFT & SURVIVE - MMO SURVIVAL GAME. PRE-ALPHA

 "Notes survived".

 

   Preface.
  

   There was a clear summer day. I stood on a glade and enjoyed surrounding beauty - everywhere where only I got a look, the grass which juicy stalks covered the surrounding district with one continuous carpet, reaching to me almost to a belt brightly turned green. Nearby pine pine forest rustled with high kroner. Sounds of frolicing feathery and other inhabitants of the w were from everywhere distributed. The bright warm sun shone, gently caressing beams everything around. Around there was almost an idyll and there was a strong wish know...
  

   But all this I was it is saddened by understanding of that Earth any more wasn't. Wasn't in that understanding in what all of us remembered it. Because of invasion of newcomers almost all people were lost, the cities were completely destroyed and the district is poisoned. Only the nature continued to blossom violently, despite all burdens of invasion of newcomers. Also there was a wish to live. But in this heavy, continuous war of a handful of people against repeatedly surpassing beings of other civilization it was necessary to survive. To survive what to destroy appeared of far depths of space the Evil.
     

   I remembered how everything began. Still then, several months ago, I returned from army, having devoted to protection of the homeland of long 18 years. In a rank of the major of special troops me with honors took home, having told that I will be able always to return as I was one of the best. I knew it, but because of several serious wounds got on special operations, was compelled to leave for rest. Having gone to the Russian remote place, I went to the forest the ordinary tourist, collect berries outdoors, mushrooms, to restore health on immense open spaces of the mother of Russia. And here in this serene time invasion also began. After planet infection with viruses and radiation, newcomers carried out aim "bombing" on shelters of the survived people, having destroyed and having destroyed almost everything... How I managed to survive? Itself I don't know. Probably, remoteness from the cities made the business, and can the fortress of a body and spirit of the skilled soldier it was succeeded to endure all cataclysms. I survived, but knew that all my family was lost. And I WILL LIVE! What to revenge aggressors.
  

   Passed some months. There came relative tranquillity, patrols of alien cleaners began to appear less often. And I decided to find other survived people what to organize resistance to the enemy. The enemy was strong. Very much. And to one me nothing a star in let and brave, but the fight doomed to a failure. Only in team people had a chance to overcome the general enemy!

 

Since a certain moment I decided to keep the diary. Sometime he will tell our children as it was heavy these days and as we managed to survive and win. I hope... I hope that we will win.

 

   Day the first.

 

   I decided to keep the diary regularly, having started remembering and writing down backdating from those events that occurred at once behind invasion. At once after newcomers arrived and carried out attack to people, I decided to hide in the forest. With itself I had a full set of the tourist: the backpack, small lamp, the field-glass, my fighting knife, small tourist hatchet, engineer shovel, lighter, hank of a rope, tablet for water disinfecting, a compass, is a little food and medicines, and as a flask with water.

 

   The first that I decided to make, it to find shelter what to wait some days and not to ask for trouble. I found in pine to pine forest some suitable trees and, having dumped them, I arranged a small tent dugout. Now inside it was possible to make fire, without being seen from outside. Darkened. Having settled in the shelter, I reflected. Is there was no wish at all. Was bitter to realize death of all whom you knew. Only hatred to aggressors gave forces. It was necessary to think over the actions in the next few days. For a start it is necessary to find a reservoir for providing with drink. It isn't known in what reservoirs water it is suitable for drink and in what it is deadly. And this infection added problems. It was necessary to determine by the second point my exact location and to define ways on which to carry out investigation. Whenever possible to try to find others survived and to combine efforts. With these thoughts, after an unlucky day I was disconnected, having failed in a short, disturbing dream.
  

   In the middle of night I was woken by unclear sounds near my shelter. Dream removed as a hand. Such sounds as far as I remembered, couldn't publish any, known to me from animals living on Earth. Having armed with a hatchet, I began to wait for dawn. The sounds reminding silent trample together with puffing and whether growl, whether I got hoarse, were distributed about an hour more. Someone or something wandered around and then left.

 

   Day of the second.

   At last morning came. Thin rays of the sun got to me into shelter. Some hours it wasn't distributed any suspicious sounds. Only rare careless shouts of beginners to wake up birds gave to confidence in safety, and I decided to leave a shelter. In the forest very much even it was cozy. And if not disturbing night and the events which took place recently, it was possible to think that occurred nothing, houses wait for my return and everything will be good. But for a set of fighting sorties in the same forests, I knew how the world is deceptive. Therefore, having a little supported, I armed with a hatchet again and decided to survey the district round the tent.

   Meters in ten from spending the night I found human traces. The truth they settled down on the earth somehow incorrectly as if the person went with unnaturally twisted foot. It needs the help, I thought and went on a trace. Meters through hundred, practically at an exit from the forest, I saw the lying body in a grass. Cautiously I approached it, keeping a hatchet in readiness. The person was dressed in a brown suit and lay on a stomach, having buried the head to the earth. His body poorly moved and made inarticulate sounds, similar that I heard at night. Having convinced that around more anybody isn't present, I risked and accurately turned a body on a back. That I saw terrified - all forward part of a body represented bloody weight. The person looked so as if he was beaten at the same time and tortured, cut on pieces and cauterized fire - on a body there was no live place. But it was live, moved and tried to rise. Having seen me, the person hoarsely began to roar and having sharply moved started getting up. I jumped aside on a step. The person went to me, having extended the blood-stained hands forward, madly rotating proteins of the blood-stained eyes and clicking jaws skin with which was ripped almost completely. Understanding that it is better to stop his tortures, I went it several times a hatchet to the head. The person fell and calmed down. Its torments ended. I understood that to remain farther in the shelter it would be dangerous. Having taken all the things, I went on the forest further, trying to discover a new place for a lodging for the night.

 

   Having passed some kilometers, I saw a stream. Water in it was crystal-clear, but corpses of birds and several forest animals around rolled. Possibly water here was infected and what not to share a fate of the forest inhabitants who have satisfied thirst from a stream, I went away, attentively looking round around. After a dinner it was succeeded to find one more stream. Unlike the first, round this stream it was absolutely pure. Nearby the boulder - an enormous gray stone with the edges ground off by time lay. And I decided to make one more shelter. Having remembered the half-dead person whom I called "zombie", I thought that the shelter doesn't need to be made stronger more strongly, than a simple tent of branches. Having cut a hatchet some young trees, I made similarity of poles of them and having fastened with a rope made of poles some walls. Having connected them on corners, it was succeeded to make small, moderately strong lodge with a flat roof of the same poles. I made one of lodge walls of a boulder, and other walls already attached to it. From below I powdered a lodge with a small layer of the earth for durability. Having showered from above with green branches, completely I disguised the new shelter. This day so exhausted me that having hardly reached a plank bed, I was disconnected till the dawn, squeezing in hands a right hatchet.

 

   Day the third.
 

   At night me nobody disturbed. Having decided that a shelter rather reliable, in the morning I decided to descend on investigation to the next settlement. The food came to an end and in spite of the fact that waters was in plenty so far, I thought of production of edibles.

 

   This forest wasn't familiar to me. Not to lose a shelter, I left tags on the road. Through couple of kilometers to the South I saw rather wide road, almost for certain the leader to any settlement or even the town. I went directly on it, without losing vigilance, despite that the road was looked through in both parties almost on two-three hundred meters.

 

   Through a couple of hours of vigorous walking I found the traces saying that the settlement is close. Half an hour more later I noticed some stone lodges forming some structure. Whether the farm, whether a transit point for
truckers. Having carefully approached closer, I understood that it was the station of logging where woodcutters, drivers of special cars and trucks lived and worked. In the settlement there were four stone two-storeyed houses, one stone three-storyed small lodge with a tower (whether radio station, whether command point), some wooden fellings on the suburb used, probably, under warehouses and garages. Down the street some people in plaid shirts and orange special clothes of workers walked. They moved slowly, as if unwillingly, and looked so as if yesterday there was a grandiose wine party in honor of birthday of the foreman. Having taken the field-glass, I decided without coming nearer to consider people closer. Having seen them is closer, I felt how the horror ran on my body. All people looked as the zombie. Many of them were covered also with wounds, as that person whom I found yesterday. Some looked more or less whole, but I understood that they are already dead and I should finish off all of them to search the settlement. One huge zombie with a huge axe of the woodcutter was in hands closer to the region of the settlement. Closer to the center of the settlement, near a tower, some people carried guns. However, they held them somehow, some simply dragged on the ground, holding a trunk.

 

   Hoping to get firearms, I decided to act. Having crept as it is possible closer to the big fellow with an axe, I threw some stones, towards two-storey buildings. On noise all zombies turned and started wandering to the broken windows. Everything, except one. Having thrown the last stone, I right there threw "tomahawk" in the head of the turned-away healthy fellow. The hatchet entered to the woodcutter directly a nape, and his heavy body silently settled in a grass. That-that and to throw any subjects at me it turned out perfectly. While other crowd, inertly touching and dragging feet, I went to houses, I crept to the killed woodcutter and borrowed his huge axe billhook. Now it is possible to try to kill them in turn. Carefully to creep behind, to thrust an axe in the head and quietly to lay that on noise the others didn't look back. Having been through with the last, I looked back and saw bodies of nearly two tens former people... I helped them, than could. You will wish nobody such tortures which has to be they tested, being both live and dead at the same time.

 

   Having convinced that more in the settlement the zombie isn't present, I began to collect necessary supplies, tools and the weapon. I liked one of guns of woodcutters, besides to it there were many cartridges. In one of warehouses axes lay. I took for myself couple better - one big, for rolls of trees, the second is less, for wood processing. In the same place I found the hand saw. The food warehouse was empty, but I managed to find a little canned food and medicines in houses. In the same place some sets of batteries for a big lamp got to me, couple of knives, lighters, a hank of a barbed wire and are a little kerosene in the canister. The lodge with a tower appeared command point I found the transmitter In command point. Unfortunately the transmitter was broken and this way of communication with survived wasn't available to me. But I found very detailed map of vicinities which very much helped me in the next days.

 

   The sun approached a decline. Having decided that it will be safer to spend the night in the settlement, than in the unexplored forest, I went to a tower. The feeling of safety came to me only on the top. Having enough exhausted in a day, I have hastily a bite and it was disconnected till the morning. As I hoped that till the morning. In the dead of night, I was woken by shrill shouts and the squeal distributed directly under a tower. Lighting in the settlement wasn't, the electricity was gone after the invasion beginning. In full darkness the chilling gnash of metal was distributed, any subjects fell and breaking-off plastic cracked. Hour two I stayed, directing a gun on a tower manhole. At last there ascended the moon. Bright light of the full moon created below illusion of space improbability of the events. All subjects seemed silver-white and unreal. On the yard the fast shadows frightening to a shiver in knees rushed about. They breaking off and breaking on pieces everything around roared in night. And directly under a tower there was something huge, snuffling, similar to an elephant and a spider at the same time. This monster tried whether to gnaw, whether to saw the basis of an iron tower. Without having sustained, I opened on the monster fire from a gun. Even it was in the dark visible as from wounds on a body of a fright phosphorescing violet liquid is splashed out, splashing everything around. Slonopauk who has become stupid from a hail of a large case-shot of which I didn't cease to water it from a tower top, at last receded and, dragging couple of interrupted paws, began to recede from the settlement. The small creatures similar to mad monkeys followed the commander. From elefant-spider there was a shining path which by the morning grew dim and was dissolved in the earth. The endured nightmare didn't allow me to close eyes till the dawn.

 

   Day the fourth.

 

   Hardly the sky brightened I looked round, and without having found any movement in foreseeable distance, went down. That I found below, threw me in shock. The basis of a tower was almost completely destroyed. Powerful iron piles were crumpled, broken partially out, and partially eaten by any acid. Only at this moment I understood as far as it was close to death. Don't start shooting I at night, in half an hour the tower would fail. And having fallen from height of 15 meters, I or would break to myself a neck, or would be alive gobbled up by the dreadful creatures which have attacked the settlement on night. Bodies of the killed zombies were broken off on the numerous pieces which part was eaten, and the part is scattered after the district together with guts and bones. Me started feeling sick. Having seen many lacerations in the war and the dead men who have been broken off by shells or splinters in half, nevertheless I couldn't constrain nausea almost and disgust, being among the terrible pieces of a flesh scattered on the settlement. It was necessary to leave. Having picked up the things postponed yesterday I, loaded for the full program, I decided to return to the forest shelter from poles and a boulder. Though now the feeling of full safety of my dwelling was gone. In the settlement it was impossible to remain, the next night not to worry more, being even behind strong stone walls of settlement houses.

 

   Already by the evening, I tired as the barge hauler pulling the barge, unloaded all found belongings in the lodge. Remembering those creatures that came to me last night in the settlement, I wound the house around with a barbed wire. I pointed some stakes, and врыл them to the earth round the house in addition to the main protection. Having hastily had a bite, and having checked the weapon, I went off to disturbing sleep.

 

   Day the fifth.
  

   Having woken up late enough, I felt had a rest and gained strength. In a night anybody didn't disturb me. In it it was possible it will be convinced, having surveyed the district round base. I was delighted much, having found a mushroom glade nearby. Canned food from the settlement should have been protected, and forest gifts had very opportunely. First I was visited by thought of soup, but, alas, except a flask I had no other ware. Therefore it was necessary to be content with fried mushrooms on sticks.

 

   Having sated, I decided to survey other party of the road on which yesterday I went to the settlement. Having taken a gun and a hatchet, a small stock of food and water, a hank of a rope and a lamp, I went for investigation, hoping that I nevertheless will manage to find still someone from the survived. Without having passed and to steam of kilometers on the road, it happened to come across several zombies sitting at a roadside. Having decided to avoid them, I curtailed into a glade and as it appeared in vain. It appeared the zombie not a little, them it appeared much more. They practically captivated the surrounding district on tens meters from the road. As the clothes on the zombie were broken off almost that to pieces, they these almost dead bodies were very imperceptible after the journey. and only having faced one of them face to face, I understood that fell into a trap.

 

   The next zombie saw me, gave to me hands and tried to come nearer, threateningly rattling the broken-off throat. The scalp slipped from his head a tatter with a clotted blood. Hand wounds suppurated and gave a terrible stench. Having grabbed an axe, I demolished a skull trying to reach me the zombie, and having sat down hid, to look as other companions of a vagrant corpse will react to noise of the fallen body. Unfortunately, me noticed. One of the most escaped enemies at whom only one hand was injured, terribly began to roar-raised a howl and rather fast pace went to me, destroying on the way bushes and small trees. Other zombies turned in my party, wishing to try fresh meat. Waving away an axe from the come most nearer enemies, I got out on the road. Here it was possible to move quicker, but it wasn't succeeded to escape. Zombies surrounded me, going on a fresh smell of human flesh, and I had to accept battle. I started turning on the improvised arena waving an axe and trying not to get under claws and teeth of infected almost dead bodies. That didn't suffice to me now, so to get an infection and to become one of them. Ten-fifteen minutes of later, having destroyed about ten enemies, I at last cleared away to myself a way on freedom. Having snatched out a gun and, shooting the most nimble persecutors, I began to move away on the way to the opposite party from the shelter. The most persistent persecutors went for me about an hour more, but at last I managed to come off a pursuit. Through some kilometers the road rested against the dried-up small river. On the river bank once there was the clearing construction swinging water in the next settlement. From it the stone pipes leaving under the earth aside the coast remained. Height of pipes was sufficient that in them there could pass the person. Having opened with a master key the lock on the lattice blocking an entrance to a pipe, I came inside. Stone walls and lattice did this place ideal for a lodging for the night. I closed the lock from within, I filled up a lattice with boards rolling nearby, I have supper and went to bed, hoping, as I will be able to have a sleep without incident this night.
