'HELL....' a realization that gently whisper in his mind
"Am I having a nightmare again?" a question that remained unanswered
As any sane man would do in this kind of situation he slapped his face hard that a red hand mark lingers in his cheek.
" this ain't a dream"
With the truth about his new reality Jacob composed himself with ease his adaptation was instant that it bugles him. He look upon his new world he sees endless dessert no life and dry air. The sky was painted red and the sun was absent.
Taking deep breathes he started to walk and venture the unknown.
He walked hours yet never felt tired, thirsty, or even hunger.
'GRRRRRRRRRRRR'
A growl coming from his back it followed by a rotting stench and sound of footsteps rush towards his direction.
He couldn't afford to look back his instinct tell him to just jump and so he did. He jumped to the right and after that a humanoid silhouette struck on his previous position. When the dust clears he began to have a clearer view of his assailant.
It was grotesque, it has no skin the flesh hangs from it bones and its eyes glows green fire. It was a zombie like but more terrifying and powerful.
It looks at his direction and pounce again at him but this time with his adrenaline his lift his right leg and throw a pushkick directly on its face, its head snap out of its body and rolls to the sand its body collapse like a puppet getting its string cut. Strangely the head was still alike hissing and growling at him unaware of its own situation. He looks down at it, studying.
"WHAT THE FVCK AM I INTO? A ZOMBIE, A GOUL? BUT WHAT EVER THIS IS BETTER KILL IT BEFORE SOMETHING UNEXPECTED HAPPEN."
He crushed the skull with his foot.
After the skull was destroyed a red smoke comes out from it body and fly towards him

'Is that it?'
"hey system! can you tell me more about yourself"
But it never respond to him. The system has no consciousness it only told him his attributes and the basic things and info of the skill he obtained, but Jacob will be realizing soon.
"Then can you tell me the average stats of an adult man in my old world?"
[5]
'So the reason I never tire from walking for hours is that I was 5 times stronger than average man, no wonder I managed to kill that thing with a single hit'
" Why am I summoned in this world?" the system didn't reply
"I see" with that he moved on and press the skill RUSH.

After checking and testing his skills he resumed his walk and encounter three more zombies adding + 3 in strength and +9 to agility making him a speedster. As he continues his walk and stumbles a pack of hounds, 7 of them one is far larger than the rest surely its leader, all houds nose twitched and look at him and they charge crazily.
"sh*t!" he cursed
he pulls out two stakes he made using the sharpen bones from the zombies.
even with added agility he knew with the speed the hounds rush at him they will eventually catch up to him if he decided to run, so instead he raised his weapon up ready for the battle, one of the hounds jumped at him jaw wide open.
'RUSH' he mutters activating the skill he became a blur and evade the attacked by dodging from the left side and also puncturing its heart precisely with the bone stakes. The hound dropped on the ground whimpering; he then used his remaining stake and throw it like a spear to the next one hitting its left eye and then he jumps directly to its face hitting the bones embedded in it eyes with a flying knee stabbing its brain and instantly killing it, it happened in a spun of a second.

Aware of his gain yet it didn't disturb his battle
After killing the second hounds he grabbed its ear and use it like a club and swing it at the two hounds sweeping them away far from him to receive the other one that follow by spinning backfist to its jaw, then grabbing its neck and pull it towards his and use it as a shield to block the bite from the pack leader making it bite and kill its own kin, using the opening he activated his new acquired skill, [BITE] a black liquid resembling a wolf maw chomped the head of the pack leader's head off.
The fight was so fast that there's still 0.4 second left in his RUSH SKILL, and that was all he needed after the death of the leader all the remaining hounds pause from its track and look at him fearfully.

A loud deafening howl came out of him making the fleeing hounds stunned, he walks back towards the first hounds who pounced at him, his grabbed the bones stakes and pull it out from its chest making it bleed and for it to die faster and then proceeded to unalive the rest and devouring their essences.

"how I wish this system has an inventory"
[DO YOU WANT TO STORE IT IN THE INVENTORY?]
