My face cracks with a wide grin. I can't hold it in.
The former zombie grins back. He's not sure why. But you're happy and that makes him happy.
quote:
"Meet, uh, I didn't ask your name, but a former Creaker. Gang, we have a way to rescue many. But first this poor fellow needs a drink, a blanket, some food, and information, and then a bed, I assume in that order."
Bill says "He ain't no Creaker. Creakers are bodybuilders. But you healed a zombie. That is totally station my man."
Campbell asks if he can examine the gauntlet. "I can understand a little bit of that language."
He looks at the back. There's an icon that's lit up. Campbell says "This says 'Heal' I think." Then he touches another icon. It lights up. "This one says 'Beam of light'. Try pointing it upwards towards the sky and making a fist."
So you do. A pitiful green laser beam fires into the sky momentarily. You can just tell it's supposed to be much, much more powerful than that. The energy counter drops to nothing and the gauntlet powers down. It begins recharging again after a few minutes exposure to direct sunlight.
Campbell says "Did you see that? A laser weapon. But it used too much power. You're gonna have to let this recharge. That might takes days. A week. But I'd love to see that at full power."
You would guess that the energy maximum would amount to 9999. It was at maybe 150 when you healed the zombie. Who knows how much energy the laser would require? But it is nice to know healing doesn't require much power.
But Campbell makes arrangements for the former zombie to stay at the nursing home for a while, until they can figure out what to do with him. He'll be cared for.
In fact, they're kind of planning on staying here for the night.
quote:
With that, I get them to taking care of this guy. Once, he's set up, I go looking for another zombie...
You're going to have to let the gauntlet recharge for a while. The others recommend waiting.
And Angus asks you if you've any thoughts on how to use the Hammer of Heracles to heal. Your guess is as good as anybody's.
