《Wasteland Queens: My RV Upgrade System》 Escape World Chapter 1: Escape World "Where am I? How did I get here?" "What the hell? Did I time travel? This is actually happening?" Across the city streets, people stared around in bewildered confusion. They had no idea how they''d materialized in this crumbling urban wasteland. Unlike the others, paralyzed by shock, Jason Williams'' eyes burned with disbelief. Reborn? The sight before him was surreal. This is itthe global arrival in the Escape World, the start of the survival game. This scene was burned into Jasons memory. "Jason, where are we? What''s going on?" A voice cut through his thoughts. He looked to his side. A woman, her face etched with panic, scanned their surroundings. She was asking him. She was average, but knew how to use makeup to her advantage, bordering on pretty. It was Sarah Jones, his ex-girlfriend. Jason scowled. Reborn, and I run into this woman again? Seriously? Sarah had landed a government job, no longer needing Jason''s financial support, and had dumped him. Now, this. In his last life, Sarah had cost him a ride, leaving him to scrape by at the bottom. Hed even been used as bait and killed by a monster. As everyone in the city grappled with their predicament, a voice boomed in everyone''s minds: [Welcome to the Escape World!] [Here, survival is the only option.] [Find a vehicle and escape the city. Your vehicle is your lifeline. Choose wisely.] [Treasure chests await along the escape route, containing supplies and enhancements. But you must defeat the guardian monsters first.] The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings. [Important: Escape quickly! Monsters arrive in one hour.] Jason muttered, Just as I remembered. He was back. The voice was identical to the one from his previous life. Unlike the others, clueless and terrified, Jason knew what this meant. Everyone between 18 and 50 worldwide had been dumped into this survival game. Everyone had to fight and escape. And in his last life, Jason had been a nobody, struggling to survive. This time, I''m getting ahead of the curve. I''m surviving. Suddenly, a system panel materialized before Jason and Sarah. He kneweveryone got one. It had four sections: [Attributes], [Channel], [Equipment], and [Vehicle]. Jason expertly navigated the panel, checking [Attributes] first. Name: Jason Williams Strength: E-Rank Speed: E-Rank Constitution: E-Rank Spirit: E-Rank Skills: None Escape Coins: 0 Overall Assessment: E-Rank (Mediocre. You''re barely better than some women. Don''t rely on brute force; you don''t have any.) He opened the Channel interface, similar to a group chat app. They could chat and trade items. Everyone used real names and pictures; everyone could see everyone else. The channels were divided into World Auction and Regional channels. The auction channel was offline. He opened the Regional Channel. The user count was prominent: Current Users: 10000/10000 Ten thousand people in this ghost town. Jason and Sarah were two of them. The channel buzzed with frantic messages. Mostly complaints about their sudden arrival. Others worried about the monsters. Mark Johnson: Everyone heard that. Let''s team up, share info, and escape together! Mark''s suggestion was instantly popular. Stranded in a strange city, fear was rampant. Unity was their best chance. People posted their thoughts. Someone quickly shared a picture of a bus at a stop. People were already boarding. Many expressed their intention to get to the bus stop. Others pointed out there wouldn''t be enough buses for everyone, suggesting they look for other vehicles. This sparked arguments. The channel was a maelstrom of conflicting opinions. Jason skimmed the chat, then exited. It took seconds, like checking a group chat on his phone. The Equipment and Vehicle sections were empty. No point looking. Reborn, he knew his priority: a vehicle. Jason knew the power of a vehicle in the Escape World. Each one had special abilities, boosting its owner. In his last life, the top players had the best vehicles. Those without? Followers. Owners could recruit followers or enslave them. Male followers were cannon fodder; females were playthings, even trade goods. Only vehicle owners controlled their destiny and had a fighting chance. To become an owner you needed to bind to a vehicleexcept buses. Last time, Jason had wanted a vehicle. Sarah convinced him to take the bus. She ditched him the moment they got on, taking another ride, leaving a stunned Jason behind. RV Target "This time, I''m getting a vehicle. No way I''m missing out again." Jason''s gaze hardened. He slapped Sarah Jones across the face. Slap! "Ouch!" Sarah cried, clutching her cheek. She''d been checking the group chat and wasn''t expecting that. "Are you insane, Jason?!" Sarah was furious. They''d been together since college, and this was the first time he''d hit her. He''d just broken up with her, and now this? Men were all trash. Jason Williams, you hit me! You pathetic loser, do you even know what youve done? Don''t even think about getting back together with me! I''m not giving you another chance Sarah hadn''t realized they weren''t in their old world anymore, maintaining her condescending attitude. Ignoring her, Jason ran towards a nearby apartment complex. He quickly recalled details from his past life, remembering a specific vehicle: an RV. Its owner, David Lee, had used it to prey on young women. Jason''s close friend, a girl hed fallen for, had killed herself rather than be taken by David. Jason wanted revenge. He remembered David bragging in the group chat about the RV being parked at the town square, in the city center. Getting there on foot was out of the question; it was too far. By the time he arrived, the monsters would be there, and David would already have it. Jason needed a vehicle now to get to the square. He knew there wouldn''t be any vehicles on the streets, aside from busesthe reason so many people crammed onto buses in the first place. Regular B, C, and D-class vehicles were hidden in apartment complexes, tucked away in corners. Only A-class vehicles were in underground garages, harder to find, requiring a trigger mechanism to access. This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source. Jason headed straight for the nearest apartment complex. There would be vehicles, if not high-level ones. Sarah was stunned, watching Jason run off. He hadn''t even looked back. She was beyond furious. Jason Williams! Stop! Where are you going? she yelled, trying to get him to stop. But he was already far away, ignoring her. Panic set in. She realized this world was dangerous and wanted Jason as protection. She couldn''t let him get away. Sarah reluctantly chased after him. As Jason and Sarah ran into the complex, several others finished checking their systems and started searching for vehicles. They only had an hour before the monsters appeared. They needed to move fast. "Hey, I saw two people run into that apartment building. Did they find something?" Someone pointed towards the complex where Jason and Sarah had disappeared. Intrigue surged. Had they found a vehicle? There were no vehicles around here; maybe there were some in there. "Let''s go check it out. If they have a vehicle, we can just hop in." "Yeah, and if they''re selfish, we''ll take it." The others didn''t respond, but their thoughts were clear. Meanwhile, Jason hadn''t yet found a vehicle. It was a small complex, with only a few buildings; finding one shouldnt take long. He searched the buildings, hoping to find something quickly. Sarah caught up. "Jason Williams, what are you doing in this dump? We only have an hour until those monsters arrive! Let''s find a bus!" Sarah just wanted a bus. But she was afraid of being picked on. Jason, at 6''2", would be perfect as a bodyguard. A guy like Jason would even put himself in front of her if things got dangerous. Jason fumed. She was still suggesting the bus? If he wasn''t pressed for time, he''d slap her ten times at least. Then, several more people ran into the complex. Everyone scrambled, desperate to secure a vehicle. Nobody knew how many vehicles there were, and whether there''d be enough for everyone. No one wanted to miss out. Theres gotta be a vehicle in here! Lets find it before that guy grabs it all for himself. C-Rank ?Ford truck Sarah saw more people running into the complex, yelling about vehicles. She was stunned. Were there actually vehicles here? Jason was already deep inside. "Get out! We got here first!" Sarah tried to shoo them away, buying Jason time. She was quick-thinking, a testament to her government job. But they didn''t listen. A middle-aged man slapped her. Slap! "Ouch!" Sarah yelped. Same feeling, same yelp, different perpetrator. Hearing the commotion, Jason realized others were searching for vehicles. He sped up his search. Around a corner, he finally spotted one: a beat-up van. "Finally!" He ran towards it. The others saw it too. "Look! A vehicle!" "Damn it, everyone, go! Don''t let that guy get it!" Everyone raced towards the van. Jason was in the lead, reaching it first. The others'' faces fell. "Hey, wait up! Let''s all go!" Jason smirked, opened the door, and got in. [Ding! C-Rank vehicle detected: beat-up van. Bind to vehicle?] Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences. "No!" He refused. You could only bind to one vehicle; it couldn''t be taken or abandoned, even if destroyed. His target was David Lee''s A-Rank RV. He glanced at the approaching group, started the van (the keys were in the ignition, and it was full of gas), shifted gears, and floored it. "Damn it, stop the van!" "That jerk! There''s room, why didn''t he let us in?" They cursed, watching him go, forced to continue their search. As Jason neared the complex exit, he saw Sarah at the entrance. Her left cheek was swollen. She looked surprised when she saw him. But he didn''t stop. "Jason Williams, you son of a bitch! Stop" She raged, regretting the breakup. She could have escaped. Jason smirked in his rearview mirror. Last time, Sarah had left him stranded. There was no way he was giving her a ride. He headed towards the city center, speeding up. He needed to find that RV. The streets were clear; no other vehicles or obstacles. "Look! A van! Hey, stop! Take us out of here!" People shouted, hoping for a ride. Jason ignored them. Some tried to stop him. He didn''t slow down, plowing right into them. Trying to block him? Too bad. "Watch out! The van''s going to hit someone!" People scattered, terrified of being run over. "That maniac! He''s trying to get reincarnated!" "That bastard! I''m remembering his face! I''m gonna get him!" People cursed. He wouldn''t even let them in, then tried to kill them. As Jason searched for the square, the hour approached. People found vehicles in various locations, becoming owners. Others waited at bus stops. Vehicle owners picked up some passengers, escaping the city. Some were already gone. Only a few remained, searching for vehicles. Jason arrived at a deserted square. "This is it." He felt a surge of excitement. Hed wasted time getting here. The square was empty. Anyone would look and leave, searching for vehicles, not sightseeing. But an A-Rank RV was hidden here. Past investigations showed all A-Rank vehicles were in underground garages, hard to find. Only the lucky found them. David Lee had bragged in the group chat about his luck. Hed been chased by a monster, escaping to this square, and somehow teleporting to an underground garage. It was like a clich story about a protagonist falling off a cliff and finding a hidden master. Jason envied him. Jason hadnt doubted Davids story. There was no reason to lie. Would anyone be reborn and steal his RV beforehand? S-Rank RV Get！ Jason got out of the van, standing in the empty square, pondering how to get David Lee''s RV. He decided to check the center of the square; there might be a mechanism to access the underground garage. He walked towards the center, unaware of a bulky figure lurking nearby, watching him leave the van. The figure, seeing Jason move away, clenched his fists. If Jason saw him, he''d recognize him immediately: David Lee. The RV owner, and a fat one at that. David was fat, but not in a friendly, wholesome way. He was ugly, sloppy, and sleazylike a certain Celestial Dragon from One Piece. This made it difficult for the women he''d abducted to genuinely fall for him. His one strange request was that they fall in love with him. Some women pretended, hoping to cling to him. But David seemed to sense insincerity. Those who faked it were tortured and humiliated, the videos posted online for everyone''s amusement. Many women chose death over being with him. Back to the present, Jason reached the center, stepping on the tiles, hoping to trigger a mechanism. David, lurking in the shadows, didn''t understand Jason''s actions but saw his chance. He waddled towards the van, his bulky frame making it look like Pigsy stealing watermelons. By the time he reached the van, Jason was still pressing the tiles. Bang! The door closed. Jason turned to see David starting the van. "What the hell?! David Lee, you stole my van?!" Jason was shocked, recognizing his nemesis. A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation. David excitedly started the van. [Ding! C-Rank vehicle detected: beat-up van. Bind to vehicle?] He froze, then grinned. "Bind! Bind it! Hehehethis van is mine!" [Ding! You have bound to a C-Rank van. It cannot be taken or abandoned, even if destroyed.] [You are now a vehicle owner and can recruit followers. Followers will generate income. Recruit followers before leaving the city.] David didn''t read the whole message; he saw Jason running towards him. He sped off. "HeheheI, David Lee, am a clever and brave man! I got a vehicle just before the monsters arrived!" He glanced in the rearview mirror, but Jason was gone. Huh? Where''d he go? David didn''t dwell on it, focusing on the van''s stats. He didn''t care about Jason. Meanwhile, Jason was in the squares underground garage. Hed been furious about the van theft, running after David, when he tripped a mechanism, teleporting to the garage. He''d lost the van, but gained something even better. The garage wasn''t dark, lit by electric lights. Jason stood up, seeing a dusty, gray-white small RV. He trembled, reaching out to touch it. It was the RV. Davids RV was heavily modified and upgraded. This one was small and beat-up because all vehicles start in a basic 0-star condition, requiring upgrades. Jason opened the door and sat down. [Ding! S-Rank vehicle detected: beat-up RV. Bind to vehicle?] What?! S-Rank?! He thought he''d misheard, checking the system. It was indeed S-Rank. That explains it he muttered. David had always seemed mysterious, powerful, with endless resources, his RV luxurious even after acquiring numerous women. It wasn''t A-Rank; it was S-Rank. No wonder he''d hidden the RVs true level. Jason would have done the same. "David Lee, youve given me quite the surprise." Jasons grin was unstoppable. He could have the van; he''d take the S-Rank RV. The van was useless now. He''d deal with David Lee later. "System, bind the RV." [Ding! You have bound to an S-Rank RV. It cannot be taken or abandoned, even if destroyed.] [You are now a vehicle owner and can recruit followers. Followers will generate income. Recruit followers before leaving the city.] Two system messages appeared. Jason smiled, opening his system panel. He wanted to see what this S-Rank RV could do. S-Rank RVs abilities Jason expertly opened his system panel and went to the [Vehicle] section. RV (S-Rank, 0-Star) Passenger Capacity: Unlimited Function 1: The owner can collect "Favor Points" from women they''ve acquired. Function 2: Favor Points can be exchanged for attribute orbs of any rank. Higher-rank orbs cost more points. Function 3: The owner can store blueprints, allowing unlimited crafting of the items listed. Current Favor Points: 0 Current Blueprints: None Jason stared, processing the S-Rank RV''s abilities. He finally understood David Lee''s past actions. He''d been collecting women for Favor Points. There were many ways to become stronger in the Escape World. The most direct was absorbing attribute orbs to enhance stats. Orbs, like strength levels, were ranked S, A, B, C, D, and E. They were scarce; even E-rank orbs were in high demand. The RV could exchange Favor Points for orbs. That explained David Lees A-Rank strength. Acquiring Favor Points was simple: acquire women, gain their favor, and receive points. Thats why David demanded the women fall in love with him. It was all for Favor Points. Jason would have to do the same to get stronger. Jason wasn''t David Lee. David was ugly, fat, and sleazy, making it hard to earn Favor Points. Jason, however, was handsome and 6''2", making it easy to win hearts. And he was selective. David wasn''t picky; he took anyone. He was omnivorous. That''s why people saw him as a creep. Jason, however, was picky. He wanted attractive women. If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. The RVs unlimited passenger capacity was another plus. It could hold countless people. But Jason wouldn''t do that; it wouldnt benefit him. He would only take women he liked. The final ability was equally appealing: storing blueprints. Treasure chests sometimes contained blueprints, each with a limited number of uses. Some made one item; some more, but not unlimited. The RV could store blueprints and craft unlimited items. Jason could sell crafted items and make a fortune without fighting monsters. "So this is the power of an S-Rank vehicle?" The ability to exchange Favor Points for orbs and craft unlimited itemseven a pig could become top-tier. David was a prime example. Jason examined the RV. It was a 0-star vehicle, basic and dilapidated. It only had two sections: a cab and a bedroom. The bedroom had a bed and bedding, nothing else. No air conditioning, refrigerator, kitchen, bathroom, or anything. Not even a table, chairs, or utensils. Hed have to find and add those later. He returned to the driver''s seat. He didn''t complain; he knew he''d upgrade it. Vehicles and equipment had ranks, from 0-star to 5-star. The fuel gauge showed 100 units of gasoline. One unit covered one kilometer; gas was crucial for finding supplies. The RV''s top speed was only 100 km/h. Hed need engine upgrades to increase speed. Instead of leaving the garage, Jason checked the group chat. It was chaotic, with messages from ten thousand people. "The monsters are coming! I haven''t found a vehicle! Help!" "Our bus is full! Why aren''t we leaving?" "Don''t panic! All the buses are still here. Maybe we leave after the monsters arrive." David Lee: "I have seats in my vehicle. Anyone in the city still looking for a ride? PM me." "@David Lee! Please save me! I''m at" Jason saw David recruiting followers. He''s using my stolen van to recruit! He''d remember that. Jason closed the chat and opened the user list, searching carefully, stopping at a profile picture. It was a pretty girl with glasses, a sweet, innocent look. He sent a friend request. Meanwhile, on a bus, a girl in a blue school uniform, wearing glasses, and sitting quietly in a corner, froze. Someone had sent her a friend request. She''d only been reading, not posting. Someone had found her from the user list. Who is this? She opened the request. It was Jason Williams. She didn''t know him. Why is he adding me? Is he trying something? She felt uneasy, rejecting the request. first beautiful women Jason, sitting in his RV, was surprised Lily Young rejected his friend request. She was cautious. It made sense; they were strangers. In his past life, after separating from Sarah, Jason had sat next to Lily on the bus. Initially, they''d focused on escaping. But the real Escape World began after they left the city. They faced many problems, especially food and water. Jason, a man, could participate in group fights and get some supplies. But Lily, an 18-year-old high school girl, couldn''t fight and had to resort to selling herself for food and water. Jason only realized Lilys stubbornness when she was near death from dehydration and starvation. She hadnt asked anyone for help. She''d rather die than sell herself, even though she could have easily traded her looks for supplies. Jason shared his food and water, not expecting anything in return. Lily, in gratitude, kept watch at night, preventing others from attacking them. Their bond deepened as they faced challenges together, developing feelings for each other. One day, when Jason left to find supplies, David Lee appeared, discovering Lily''s innocence. To avoid David, Lily ran towards a monster and was killed. That''s when Jasons hatred for David Lee began. Reborn, with his S-Rank RV, Jason could protect Lily. He couldn''t ignore the woman who had stood by him. Unfortunately, the monsters were arriving soon. He couldn''t find Lily now, but he could add her as a friend. Later, he could send her supplies to prevent her from starving or dehydrating. He sent another friend request. Lily, seeing the repeated request, stomped her foot. Who is this guy? Is he really after me? This novel''s true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there. She quickly understood, through the group chat, that the Escape World had no laws or morals. As a powerless girl, she felt vulnerable, knowing she could become someone''s plaything. She hadn''t expected it so soon. Why her? She was about to reject the request again when she realized he couldn''t actually force her into anything, and accepted. Shed see what he wanted. She opened the chat, ready to unleash her fury. Shed show him she wasn''t easy. But he didnt message her. A minute passed, and still nothing. What the hell? She wanted to ask him what he wanted, but sending the first message felt like admitting defeat. It felt like being harassed and finally giving in, only to have him lose interest. She decided to delete him. Then, a system message interrupted. [Regional Announcement: Monsters have arrived.] Simultaneously, all the city buses started moving, leaving the city. They were driverless but functioning perfectly. Everyone on the buses breathed a sigh of relief. They were leaving. "Look! Meteor shower!" Someone shouted, and everyone looked out. Lily, seated by the window, had a clear view. Countless white lights fell from the sky, like a meteor shower. "Those meteors they wont hit the bus, will they?" She felt a surge of fear. Several lights landed near the bus, then dispersed, revealing figures. "Ogres!" Someone screamed. The figures were ten to twelve feet tall, brown-skinned, humanoidfamiliar to gamers. Lilys face paled; they were drooling at them. They looked primitive and stupid but their size was terrifying. They could easily crush the bus. Fortunately, they only watched. Everyone relaxed. They were safe for now. A middle-aged man ran towards the bus, noticed by Lily. He seemed to think the ogres werent attacking, trying to board. But the ogres suddenly lunged at him. "Aaaaaah!" he screamed. A bloody scene unfolded. The ogres tore the man apart, devouring him. It was brutal and horrifying. Lily was petrified, her face pale, trembling. The mans limbs were like spicy chicken necks in their mouths. A high school girl, she''d never seen anything like it. Shed have nightmares for days. She opened the group chat, a chaotic mess. People were posting pictures of the monsters: goblins, orcs, demons, ogres, and wild animalsa bizarre menagerie. They weren''t attacking the vehicles, only those still on the streets. Stunning Beauty, My Name is Chloe "Hey, Fatty, step on it! Those monsters are looking at us funny," a man whispered to David Lee in the van. He didn''t dare shout, fearing hed attract the monsters attention. David trembled, his grip on the wheel shaking. "I know, just relax! If I go too fast, we''ll hit them!" He didn''t dare drive too fast; his beat-up van was fragile. He regretted his greed, wanting to recruit more people. He''d spent time finding two men, who were disrespectful, calling him "Fatty" and bossing him around. They clearly didn''t respect him as the owner. He''d kick them out if they weren''t useful. David had been desperate to recruit because of the van''s abilities. It enhanced the owner''s constitution based on the number and strength of passengers. More passengers meant greater benefits. But these two men weren''t giving him any boost; he needed more. "Help!" A gruff voice cried out. It sounded like a big, strong man. David froze, spotting two figures running towards his van, pursued by five or six goblins. They were women. Seeing women, David decided to help. He needed more passengers. The two men inside panicked. "Fatty, be careful! They''re being chased!" Ignoring them, David drove towards them. The two women were relieved. Once inside, the three men saw their faces. They almost threw up. They were unbelievably ugly. If David was an ugly guy, these women were his equals. Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more. The thinner womans eyes lit up, seeing the men. "Gentlemen, you''re lifesavers!" she said. "Other vehicles refused to take us. We''re eternally grateful we''re willing to repay you with our bodies." The fatter woman laughed, her voice like a man''s. "My sister''s right! We must repay them! My name is Stunning Beauty, and this is my sister, Stunning City. Which handsome gentleman will we marry?" The two men jumped back, shaking their heads frantically. "Uh we''re gay. Not interested in women." Stunning Beauty and Stunning City looked at David with disdain, then their eyes lit up. The fat driver was ugly, a perfect match, and this was his van. They''d become the boss''s wives! "Fine, we''ll marry this fat guy." Davids face turned green. Meanwhile, Jason, after Lily accepted his friend request, closed the system. He needed to leave the city. Monsters wouldn''t attack vehicles initially, but once the buses left, the restriction would lift. He had to leave quickly. The RVs engine hummed, and it started moving. A flash of white light, and it teleported to the square. He floored it, heading out of the city. Those without vehicles became targets. No matter how they hid or ran, they were killed. Chloe was one of them. She was stunning, with long legs and a perfect figure. But what set her apart was her mischievous, youthful spirit. Shed had chances to leave on other vehicles, but refused. The drivers were all men with obvious ulterior motives. Shed find her own ride, then recruit some beautiful women. But then the monsters arrived. She saw goblins forcing a woman down and panicked. She regretted her decision. She wasn''t afraid of death, but of falling into the goblins'' hands. It was worse than death. She ran, the goblins pursuing her, their eyes fixated on her. She cried, "Someone, help me! I don''t want to end up with those goblins!" Then, BOOM! A gray-white RV burst from nowhere, knocking the goblins away. Jason looked at Chloe through the window. Nice. A perfect ten. Wonder if she''s a virgin. Hed seen her from afar. He hadnt planned to help, but her figure was too good to ignore. He needed virgins for Favor Points. Hed ask. He lowered the window. Hey, beautiful, are you a virgin? Chloe, wiping her tears, nodded. "I''m Chloe. Do you know me?" She felt no animosity towards him, possibly because hed saved her. She''d never felt this way about a man before. A virgin Jason nodded, satisfied. He liked her, but her speech was odd. Just say yes or no. Was she playing cute? Favor Points, Leaving the City "I''m Chloe. Do you know me?" Jason found Chloes cute act strange. "No, but it''s fine as long as you''re a virgin. Interested in a ride in my RV? All expenses paid, just a small fee." Chloe wiped her tears, glancing at the fallen goblins. They were badly hurt but not dead; they''d get up soon. She didn''t want to face them, and nodded. "Yes, but" she started, wanting to say she had no money, fearing he''d refuse her. Jason waved his hand. "Hop in." He gestured to the passenger seat. Chloe felt relieved. She cautiously opened the door, afraid hed demand payment. Once in the RV, she felt safe. Jason sped out of the city, driving aggressively, even running over monsters that blocked his path. Chloe was terrified but strangely felt safe, as if nothing could harm her while inside. Feeling secure, Chloe examined the RV. Shed seen chat messages about vehicle ranks. Regular cars were mostly C-Rank and D-Rank. Jason''s RV was different. She guessed it was at least B-Rank, maybe even A-Rank. She wondered where he''d found it; shed searched for hours and found nothing. She was envious. They reached the city limits. As they left, the scenery changed, and the RV appeared on a deserted highway stretching to the horizon. It was wide enough for four or five RVs side-by-side. The landscape was desolate, with yellow sand and sparse, withered plants. [You have left the city. Welcome to the Wasteland.] [Daily rewards of gasoline and Escape Coins will be distributed based on the number of passengers.] [Vehicles can only travel on the highway.] [Resource chests with guardian monsters are located along the highway. Proceed with caution.] If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. [Important Note: Pursuers will arrive in three days. Increase your strength as soon as possible.] A series of system messages appeared. Chloe panicked, checking the group chat. It was her only source of information. "Oh my god, there are only nine thousand people left" she gasped. The user count was 9096/10000. Nearly a thousand people had died in just over an hour. She would have been one of them if Jason hadn''t saved her. She felt immense gratitude. Jason didn''t check the chat; he was a reborn player, already knowing the information. He was considering getting Favor Points from Chloe. The surroundings were safe; he could work without interruption. He turned to Chloe. "Beautiful, I rescued you. Time to pay the fare." Chloe''s face fell. She hastily closed the system. "I I don''t have any money and money''s useless here" Before she could continue, Jason looked at her with a smirk. She understood. Money was worthless here; he wanted something else. Jason, seeing her comprehension, grabbed her and pulled her towards the bedroom. She resisted, but was no match for him. "No! I don''t like men! Let go of me!" "You will." One hour later Chloe''s Favor Points +1 Chloe? That was her name. He remembered asking if she was a virgin, and her saying "Chloe." Theyd both misunderstood. But she was a virgin. He was frustrated, only gaining one Favor Point after an hour. It was useless. He tried again. Chloe''s Favor Points +1 Chloe''s Favor Points +1 Chloe''s Favor Points +1 After another hour, he stopped. Two hours of effort yielded only four Favor Points. He was exhausted, but it wasn''t his fault. Chloe disliked him; thats why it was so difficult. He checked if he could exchange them for attribute orbs. He received four orbs the size of pigeon eggs. [E-Rank Attribute Orb]: Enhances E-Rank attributes. He wasnt thrilled; one Favor Point equals one E-Rank orb. Ten points for a D-Rank, one hundred for a C-Rank, and so on, requiring thousands or tens of thousands later. He needed many Favor Points to become strong. He had four attributes: Strength, Speed, Constitution, and Spirit. Each had six ranks (S, A, B, C, D, E), with three sub-ranks in each (E+, E, E-). He was at the lowest level (E-) in all attributes. Two orbs to reach E-Rank, four to reach E+, one D-Rank orb to reach D-. The four E-Rank orbs were useless; he could trade them for supplies. He opened the chat. Many people had found treasure chests and obtained resources. Some had already gotten two or three chests worth. Many were trading Escape Coins, food, and water. Trading Blueprints, Scavenging Supplies Jason posted his E-Rank attribute orbs in the group chat, offering to trade for blueprints, requesting private messages. Within moments, dozens of people messaged him. Everyone craved attribute orbs; he had a ready market. He checked the messages. Most wanted to trade food, water, or Escape Coins. He ignored them. Only three offered blueprints: a wooden spear blueprint, a wooden bucket blueprint, and a vehicle front bumper blueprint. Given the current scarcity, the fact anyone was offering blueprints was a testament to the orbs value. The bumper blueprint was the most valuable. He traded an orb for it. [Vehicle Front Bumper]: 1-Star vehicle equipment. Increases impact resistance. Blueprint Uses: 1 Crafting Cost: 100 Escape Coins. He was satisfied, but the cost was prohibitive. Nobody had 100 Escape Coins. That''s likely why he could trade an orb for it. He traded another orb for the spear blueprint. [Wooden Spear]: 0-Star equipment. Blueprint Uses: 1 Crafting Cost: 5 Escape Coins. Wooden spears were common early-game equipment, selling for 10-15 Escape Coins. Jason could craft unlimited spears with his blueprint. He could make a profit, but everyone was currently poor. Hed sell them later, when people had more Escape Coins. He didnt trade for the bucket blueprint; it wasn''t worth it. He stored the blueprints, looking at Chloe sleeping. Shed left scratches and bite marks on him. She probably hated him. Should he watch out for her? He was worried she might kill him in his sleep. He hadn''t felt anything for her; he''d only taken her to gain Favor Points. If she became a threat, hed eliminate her without hesitation. Otherwise, he didn''t mind her presence.

Vroomthe RV started moving along the highway. Jason focused on the wasteland beside the road. After driving for ten miles, he found his first chesta wooden crate on the roadside. He got out. "A basic wooden chest." Chests were ranked; wooden chests were the lowest tier. He didn''t approach it immediately. He observed his surroundings, picked up a stone, and threw it at the chest. Thump! The stone hit, a shadow darted awaya snake. It was the chest''s guardian. A careless approach could have been fatal. Jason, knowing this, had tested with the stone. Seeing no other threats, he cautiously approached and opened the chest, finding two energy bars, a bottle of water, and five Escape Coins. He returned to the RV, eating and drinking; he was starving and thirsty. He finished an energy bar and most of the water quickly. Feeling better, he continued his search. Ten miles later, he found another wooden chest. This time, a gray wolf was guarding it. It stood, growling, displaying its fangs. Jason frowned. This was tougher than the snake; throwing a rock wouldn''t work. Hed have to fight. He crushed his remaining two E-Rank attribute orbs, the light merging into his body. He enhanced his Speed. Name: Jason Williams Strength: E-Rank Speed: E-Rank Constitution: E-Rank Spirit: E-Rank Skills: None Escape Coins: 5 Overall Assessment: E-Rank His speed and overall assessment were now E-Rank. He used his five Escape Coins to craft a speara seven-foot-long pole with a sharpened stone point. Spears were common early-game weapons, offering superior range against animals. He tested the spear''s feel, then approached the wolf. The wolf couldn''t cross the road, but would attack if Jason left the highway. He held the spear, pointed at the wolf, and stepped off the road. He anticipated a fierce attack but didnt want to engage directly. The wolf hesitated, backing off. Jason slowly advanced, using the chest as cover. The wolf suddenly lunged. Jason retreated, stabbing with his spear. His enhanced speed prevented the wolf from closing in. He stabbed; blood sprayed, but the spear wasn''t sharp enough to cause significant damage. The injured wolf attacked again. Jason wasn''t worried; he''d seen worse. He retreated, continuously stabbing, causing damage but not killing it. He used varied retreats (left, center, right), preventing the wolf from closing the distance. The wolf was soon battered and bruised. More Favor Points The wolf howled, Jason and the gray wolf continued their struggle. The wolf, injured and bloodied, looked pathetic. Sensing its life was in danger, it whimpered, stopped attacking, and retreated. After several yards, it ran off without hesitation. Jason sighed. Guardian monsters weren''t easy; they fled when they sensed defeat. He wanted to kill the wolf for the meat, but he couldn''t. Once the wolf was gone, Jason opened the chest, finding a single energy bar, two bottles of water, and five Escape Coins. "Stingy," he muttered, taking the supplies and returning to the RV. Chloe was in the passenger seat, glaring at him. "Oh, you''re awake. Didn''t want to sleep more?" Jason teased. "Hmph." Chloe crossed her arms, silent except for a snort. Shed fallen asleep from exhaustion after beingf**kfor two hours. She hadnt felt any tenderness. Shed wanted to kill him. Shed been tired from searching for a vehicle, thenthat. The wolfs howls had woken her up. Shed seen the fight. Shed been both hoping the wolf would avenge her and worried hed die, leaving her alone. She was relieved the wolf had run off. Despite everything, Chloe knew Jason was her only hope. He''d taken her virginity; he couldn''t just die. He needed to take responsibility. Jason ignored her thoughts, giving her an energy bar and water, taking advantage of the situation, eliciting a gasp from Chloe. "Eat. I''ll get you a better meal tonight." "You you" Chloe gasped, speechless. Jason shrugged. "No need to thank me. All expenses paidwe agreed to that." "Consider yourself lucky. Ask any woman in the group chat if they wouldn''t envy you." He was subtly warning her. Unauthorized reproduction: this story has been taken without approval. Report sightings. "Shameless! All men are trash," Chloe muttered. He was just trying to get close to her. Grrrumbleher stomach growled. Glaring at Jason, she ate the energy bar. It was the price for what had happened. Jason continued driving. It was day one. Some chests might contain rare items, so he wanted to find as many as possible. After twenty miles, he spotted another chesta bronze chest guarded by a three-foot-tall goblin. Jason grinned; Chloe paled. "A bronze chest! There''ll be good stuff inside!" Bronze chests were a higher tier than wooden ones. Jason grabbed his spear, about to get out, but Chloe stopped him. "W-what are you doing?" Seeing her pleading look, Jason rolled his eyes. "Taking out that goblin, of course. How else am I going to get you that nice dinner?" Chloe, though touched, held on tighter. "Don''t go! Goblins are dangerous! A group of guys tried to kill one, and several got killed!" She opened her system, showing him the chat. Shed been monitoring it. Many people encountered goblin-guarded bronze chests. One group of guys on a bus had tried to kill one and lost several members. It was a hot topic of discussion. Jason was suicidal going alone. Jason looked at Chloes grip on his hand, surprised. During their encounter shed fought back fiercely, scratching and hitting him, threatening to kill him. Now, she clearly didn''t want him to die. He looked at her, intrigued. Hed seen her as a tool for Favor Points, but her concern reminded him of Lily Young. Both women had worried about his safety when he went looking for supplies. In his past life, Jason had seen countless betrayals. People had used him, but only Lily had cared. He didn''t know why Chloe cared, but Lily had been selfless. She chose death over being with David, even though she could have had food and water. What could she have possibly gained from Jason? A few meager supplies? Lily had genuinely cared. He saw Lily in Chloe, momentarily disoriented. "Are you worried about me?" he asked softly, moving closer Chloe felt her heart race as his face approached, feeling his breath. She leaned in "No!!!" she screamed, pushing him away. "I''m not worried about you! I''m just afraid you''ll die and leave me alone here!" Jason was stunned, not by her words, but by two system messages: Chloe''s Favor Points +2 Chloe''s Favor Points +2 What?! Four Favor Points just like that? He''d worked for two hours, barely getting four. Almost kissing her, and he got four. What was going on? He still decided to fight the goblin. "It''s fine if I die. Just stay on the highway for a few hours, and a bus will pick you up." He grabbed his spear, leaving Chloe with a complex expression. Shed actually fallen for him. 11 - NewSkill Jason Williams stepped out of the RV, taking a deep breath. He was beginning to realize that Favor Points weren''t just for exchanging for Attribute Orbs. They could also be used to discern a woman''s true feelings. The human heart was the hardest thing to control, especially in the Escape World, where you could easily get stabbed in the back. Sarah Jones was a prime example. That woman only cared about profit. In the previous life, Jason Williams had been completely screwed over by her. In the future, he could use Favor Points to determine which women were trustworthy, preventing a repeat of the Sarah Jones situation. David Lee must have discovered this in his past life, which explained why he tortured and humiliated women who didn''t have Favor Points towards him. Of course, David Lee''s ugliness might also have played a role. But even with his looks, he''d used Favor Points to raise his strength to an A-Rank. Therefore, David Lee must have had women who genuinely cared for him. Jason Williams guessed that the Beautiful sisters must have contributed the most Favor Points. Those two were David Lee''s right and left hands, second only to him in strength. He wondered if they would even appear at David Lee''s side this time since he had intercepted the RV. And if David Lee had the Beautiful sisters as his right and left hands, shouldn''t he cultivate his own? Chloe and Lily Young were good choices. In the Escape World, it''s hard to survive alone; everyone forms teams to survive. If each vehicle could be considered a team, the owner would be the captain, and the followers would be the members. The vehicle owners would recruit followers to build teams, then fight the monsters guarding the treasure chests together, searching for resources and surviving in the Escape World. Don''t think that just because Jason Williams dared to take on a Bronze Chest alone now that he always will. The monsters guarding the Bronze Chests would only get more numerous and stronger. How strong would he have to become to defeat those monsters? Even if he did, how would he face the Silver and Gold Chests later? So, building a team was crucial. Jason Williams opened the system, used Favor Points to exchange for four Attribute Orbs, crushed them directly, and continued to strengthen his speed attribute. His attribute panel changed again. Name: Jason Williams Strength: E-Rank Speed: E+ Rank Constitution: E-Rank Spirit: E-Rank Skills: None Escape Coins: 5 Overall Evaluation: E+ Rank With his speed boosted to E+ Rank, Jason Williams felt more confident in defeating the Goblin. So, he shouldered the Wooden Spear and went to the roadside. The Goblin saw Jason Williams appear, waving the bone dagger in its hand and screeching, a mocking expression on its face. It was as if it was saying, "Stupid human male, you don''t know the might of the Goblin, do you? Daring to come here to die alone!" Jason Williams sneered. His speed attribute was now definitely higher than the Goblin''s. He raised the Wooden Spear and charged toward the Goblin. In the RV, Chloe watched Jason Williams charge towards the Goblin nervously, grinding her teeth in anger. She had clearly told him how terrifying Goblins were, so why charge directly at it? Before she could think further, Chloe witnessed a shocking scene. Jason Williams''s spear moved like a dragon, stabbing out quickly. The Goblin couldn''t react in time and was instantly blinded in one eye. Chloe stared in astonishment, an incredulous look on her face. "What?!" "Waaah!" The Goblin wailed in pain, dark red blood flowing from its eye socket, making it look terrifying. Jason Williams, holding the Wooden Spear, felt no joy, only regret. If the Wooden Spear had been sharper, this sudden stab could have pierced the Goblin''s head. This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. The Goblin, blinded in one eye, screeched in rage, a murderous aura rising within it. It would kill Jason Williams to avenge its eye. Thus, the Goblin, wielding its bone dagger, charged quickly toward Jason Williams. Jason Williams was prepared, retreating to create distance while continuously jabbing with the Wooden Spear. The Goblin was only about three feet tall with short arms and legs; how could it attack Jason Williams? The only thing limiting Jason Williams''s strength was that the Wooden Spear wasn''t sharp enough to cause fatal damage to the Goblin. In just a few moments, the Goblin was covered in injuries. It couldn''t gain any advantage over Jason Williams; his movements were too agile. Jason Williams''s E+ Rank speed left it helpless. The Goblin shrieked twice, then decisively turned to flee. It seemed to know it couldn''t win against Jason Williams, not even with the hatred of having its eye stabbed out. Jason Williams didn''t chase. He knew the Goblin had a trick up its sleeve: suddenly throwing its dagger as it fled, a move that most people couldn''t dodge. Jason Williams didn''t dare force the kill. So, he cautiously stood his ground, silently watching the Goblin escape. As for Chloe in the RV, she covered her mouth in shock. Jason Williams had actually driven away a Goblin that a dozen people couldn''t handle; that was too amazing. Was this guy a martial artist? Chloe finally realized Jason Williams''s strength. Thinking about it now, Jason Williams was indeed outstanding. He had a high-level RV, the strength to defeat Goblins and Gray Wolves alone, and was handsome. Any woman would be moved. Even she, a lesbian who had no interest in men, felt a slight fondness for Jason Williams. Chloe had always felt a sense of disgust for men, which led her to become interested in women. She was, in fact, a lesbian. She was even on a date with her girlfriend before she descended into the Escape World. Out in the Wasteland, Jason Williams curiously opened the Bronze Chest to see what was inside. The chest wasn''t filled with supplies as he imagined; instead, there was a single book. A book? Could it be a skill book?! Jason Williams''s expression showed surprise as he quickly picked up the only book in the chest. [Skill Book] Mind Blast: Unleashes a mental attack on a target, potentially causing the target to become stunned. Note: The stun effect is determined by the relative mental strength of both parties. Jason Williams took a deep breath after reading the skill book''s effect. This thing was incredibly precious. As expected, rare items could be found on the first day in the Escape World. As far as Jason Williams knew, skill books were usually found in Gold Chests. He didn''t expect to find one in a Bronze Chest. Furthermore, Mind Blast was clearly an excellent skill, a mental skill that inflicted stun on enemies. The stronger the user''s spirit attribute, the more obvious the effect. Jason Williams held the skill book, ready to learn it when an idea flashed in his mind. Should he give this skill to Chloe? He had just had the idea of nurturing Chloe and Lily Young. These two women were, after all, powerless. Even if they were given Attribute Orbs to strengthen them, it would be difficult for them to unleash the full potential of their high attributes. But if they learned Mind Blast, combined with Attribute Orbs to strengthen their spirit, Chloe''s combat power would increase greatly in a short period of time. In future battles, Jason Williams could kill monsters in front while Chloe used Mind Blast to provide support from the rear. That was much better than fighting alone. Moreover, as a reborn person, Jason Williams was well aware of the importance of team strength. In the future, if two teams fought over a treasure chest, a competition mechanism would be triggered, and the winning team would get the treasure chest. The so-called competition mechanism might be a team battle, or it might involve sending followers to fight three one-on-one battles, with the team that won two battles getting the treasure chest. So, Jason Williams had to cultivate the women''s strength. The only concern was Chloe''s loyalty. So, Jason Williams decided to test Chloe with this skill book first, using Favor Points to discern Chloe''s loyalty. If Chloe received the skill book and didn''t increase his Favor Points, then Jason Williams would personally eliminate Chloe, not allowing her to become a second Sarah Jones. If Chloe''s Favor Points rose above 5, then Jason Williams could get at least ten Favor Points from Chloe every day, which would greatly improve his combat power. The early effects would be no worse than this skill book. Of course, a skill book was definitely more valuable than Attribute Orbs, but without C-Rank or higher attributes, the skill''s power couldn''t be unleashed. Jason Williams knew very well that his advantage was to improve into a powerful attributes, by collecting Favor Points from loyal women, rather than relying on a skill book to become a powerhouse. 12 - Chloe surrendered Jason Williams returned to the RV with the skill book. Opening the door, he saw Chloe sitting in the passenger seat, looking at the Group Chat App, seemingly not wanting to acknowledge him. Actually, Chloe was feeling awkward as well. She admired Jason Williams''s strength in her heart but couldn''t bring herself to compliment him. After all, she had been taken advantage of by Jason Williams already. If she showed too much admiration, wouldn''t that just encourage him to take further liberties? She wasn''t going to be a simp. So, Chloe pretended to be very calm, ignoring Jason Williams. Jason Williams, seeing Chloe''s sulky little face, found it amusing. Chloe wasn''t just a beautiful woman; she also had a special kind of aura, the nobility of a rich family''s daughter. But this nobility didn''t make her seem unattainable; instead, it gave people a quirky and approachable feeling. Jason Williams stuffed the skill book into Chloe''s arms, taking the opportunity to grab a little something, which made Chloe furious. "Ah! You big pervert! All you do is bully me!" Chloe waved her small fists, hitting Jason Williams. Jason Williams laughed when he saw Chloe''s defenses crumble. So, Jason Williams wasn''t going to back down either. Since Chloe dared to hit him, it wasn''t too much to ask to take a few more liberties, right? With E+ Rank speed, his moves were as fast as lightning. "Ah!" Chloe exclaimed, hastily defending herself. But no matter how she defended, she couldn''t stop Jason Williams from taking advantage of her. Seeing that she wasn''t Jason Williams''s opponent, Chloe''s eyes turned red, and she broke down crying. That''s right, she was crying out of anger. "Waaah... You only know how to bully me! If you have the guts, just kill me!" Chloe was going all out, completely giving up her defense, waving her small fists and hitting Jason Williams. She didn''t care how Jason Williams took advantage of her anymore. She was going to die together with Jason Williams today. This left Jason Williams at a loss for what to do. He had actually made Chloe cry. He didn''t make her cry when he forced himself on her for two hours, but now she''s crying just because he touched her a couple of times? That''s too much... It was also his fault for not waking up from his past life''s experiences, still thinking that giving a woman some supplies meant he could treat her like a slave. Seeing Chloe''s collapsed appearance, Jason Williams knew he had gone too far. Chloe should have had some favorable impression of him before, but now, because he took a few liberties with her, wouldn''t she hate him for it? Jason Williams was a bit overwhelmed, not knowing how to appease Chloe. He could only let Chloe cry on the side. Chloe felt extremely wronged today. She had inexplicably come to the Escape World, almost been stabbed to death by a group of Goblins, then been abducted by Jason Williams onto the RV and forced on for two hours, and then was also being bullied and taken advantage of. She was a woman with no power, and in the future, she was going to become Jason Williams''s slave. She might as well just die. "Um... I''m sorry, it was my fault..." Jason Williams said apologetically. Chloe was stunned, not expecting Jason Williams to apologize to her. With Jason Williams''s strength, even if he forced himself on her for another two hours, she wouldn''t be able to resist. So why was Jason Williams apologizing? Chloe wiped the tears from her cheeks and threatened, "If you dare to bully me again, I''ll hit you back..." "If you want to just kill me, I''m not afraid to die." Jason Williams awkwardly rubbed his nose: "I won''t bully you in the future, but the daily vehicle fare still has to be paid." Vehicle fare? The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation. Chloe was stunned, and then she understood Jason Williams''s meaning. Before she got on the vehicle, Jason Williams had asked her for a vehicle fare. Chloe thought it was money, but it turned out to be that she was forced on for two hours. The so-called vehicle fare was actually... Chloe''s face turned pale. Jason Williams still wanted to treat her as a slave. She might as well just die. At this time, Jason Williams picked up the dropped skill book from Chloe''s feet, hesitated, and still handed it to Chloe. "For you." For me? Only then did Chloe remember that Jason Williams had stuffed something into her arms at the beginning, was it this book? After receiving the book in confusion, Chloe received a system notification. Skill book? Mind Blast? After reading the system information, Chloe asked incredulously. "This is for me?" Although she didn''t know the value of skill books, she also knew that this thing was precious. "Yeah." Jason Williams gave a soft hum, not knowing if it was right or wrong to give the skill book to Chloe. Seeing that Chloe wasn''t speaking, Jason Williams didn''t know what to say either. He could only start the RV and continue to look for treasure chests. The RV drove all the way. Chloe sat in the passenger seat, holding the skill book in silence. Out of the corner of her eye, she observed Jason Williams concentrating on driving, with no intention of taking back the skill book. "Aren''t you afraid that I''ll use the skill to deal with you after I learn it?" Chloe asked suddenly. Jason Williams nodded: "A little worried, but I still hope you can become my right and left hand, and we can live together." This was Jason Williams''s true thought. He needed loyal and reliable women and didn''t need to lie, so he directly confessed to Chloe. Of course, if Chloe had the intention of harming him, Jason Williams would also unceremoniously eliminate Chloe. Live together... Chloe''s eyes moved. If she could live, who would want to die? Don''t look at her mouth shouting that she''s not afraid of death, but she also wants to live. Chloe also understood that Jason Williams didn''t seem to be treating her as a slave. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have given her the skill book. She wasn''t stupid. Jason Williams could have completely learned this skill book himself, but instead, he gave it to her. Chloe was a little touched. The resentment and anger in her heart towards Jason Williams had unexpectedly dissipated. "Then I''ll learn this skill book, and you won''t regret it?" Chloe continued to ask. At this time, Jason Williams raised the corner of his mouth, and he received a system notification. Chloe''s Favor Points +5 Chloe''s Favor Points +6 Obviously, Chloe was not an ungrateful person. He had bet right this time in giving the skill book, and he would harvest a loyal woman. "Learn it, since the skill book is for you, I believe in you." Chloe''s Favor Points +6 Jason Williams''s words made Chloe feel touched again. Wasn''t Jason Williams just a little bit of a pervert who liked to take advantage of her? Wasn''t it just that she had to pay a little vehicle fare every day? She felt that it wasn''t a big deal now. And Jason Williams was also very handsome, so she wasn''t at a loss. Chloe held the skill book in her heart and silently recited learning. She saw the skill book turn into white light and merge into Chloe''s body, making Jason Williams on the side envious. In his previous life, he had struggled at the bottom for several Escape Worlds without a single skill. Chloe had just started on her first day and had learned a powerful skill, with unlimited future potential. Chloe opened her personal attributes and sure enough, she saw a Mind Blast skill in the skill column. "Hmph, I''ve already learned the skill. It''s impossible for you to regret it and want it back." Chloe raised her small chin, looking like she wasn''t afraid of anyone now. Jason Williams obviously didn''t expect that Chloe would go crazy after learning the skill. "You took my skill book, you should be grateful to me, call me hubby and let me hear it..." Chloe''s face turned red, and then she rolled her eyes. "Hmph, I won''t call you that. The skill book can only make me forgive you for forcing yourself on me for two hours." "Want me to call you... unless... you find me Attribute Orbs in the future." 13 - Need More virgins "Attribute Orbs?" Jason Williams looked at Chloe with some surprise. He didn''t expect Chloe to know about Attribute Orbs. Chloe, seeing Jason Williams looking at her, rolled her eyes in annoyance: "Don''t play dumb with me, I saw the message you sent in the chat channel about exchanging Attribute Orbs for Blueprints." "My spirit attribute is only E-Rank right now; I should at least strengthen my spirit attribute in the future... otherwise, how can I help you?" "Also, what''s with you? You still haven''t told me your name?" "Do you have to wait for a woman to ask?" After learning the skill, Chloe was noticeably more cheerful, constantly complaining to Jason Williams. If she hadn''t seen the message Jason Williams had sent in the channel, she still wouldn''t know Jason Williams''s name now. Just thinking about it made her angry. Jason Williams drove the RV, saying, "My name is Jason Williams, didn''t you already know that... but calling me by my name is too distant; you should call me hubby instead." Then Jason Williams stretched out his right hand. In Jason Williams''s hand were two Attribute Orbs the size of pigeon eggs. "Attribute Orbs!" Chloe exclaimed. She subconsciously wanted to reach out and take the Attribute Orbs, but Jason Williams withdrew his hand in time. "These Attribute Orbs aren''t free; you have to call me hubby in the future." Chloe clearly didn''t expect Jason Williams to have Attribute Orbs in his hand. She knew she shouldn''t have brought up this request. "Forget it; you can keep the Attribute Orbs for yourself." Chloe declined, she had only mentioned wanting Attribute Orbs casually. In her opinion, Jason Williams needed Attribute Orbs more than she did. Her skill only required her to hide in the back and release it, unlike Jason Williams, who needed to fight in close combat, which was very dangerous. So, Chloe thought Jason Williams needed Attribute Orbs more. Jason Williams also saw that Chloe''s intention in not wanting the Attribute Orbs was to leave them for him, which made Jason Williams very satisfied. At least for now, Chloe had more of a conscience than Sarah Jones. "These two Attribute Orbs are specially reserved for you; accept them. Remember to call me hubby in the future." Jason Williams gave Chloe the two Attribute Orbs in his hand. Chloe accepted the Attribute Orbs, and her heart was touched again. Although Jason Williams was lecherous and liked to take advantage of her, he really didn''t skimp on giving her things. Food, water, skill books, and Attribute Orbs were all given to her without hesitation, which was enough to show that Jason Williams was very good to her. Chloe''s Favor Points +6 "Thank you, hub... hubby," Chloe said haltingly. It was really uncomfortable for her, a lesbian who liked women, to call a man hubby. Jason Williams''s mouth showed a smile, driving the RV and continuing to look for treasure chests. Chloe also absorbed the two Attribute Orbs, strengthening her spirit attribute, reaching E-Rank. More than an hour later... Jason Williams successively found two more Wooden Chests. The monsters guarding the two chests were both Gray Wolves. This time, with Chloe''s cooperation, the two Gray Wolves didn''t even have a chance to escape and were easily killed by Jason Williams. Chloe''s Mind Blast was indeed powerful; it could cause the Gray Wolves to enter a state of stun for two or three seconds. It allowed Jason Williams to directly kill the Gray Wolves, who were defenseless, without even needing to fight. Of course, after Chloe released Mind Blast twice, she felt dizzy and lightheaded. Jason Williams knew that this was a result of insufficient spirit attribute. Such a powerful skill like Mind Blast also had a great limitation, which was that it required a higher spirit attribute. If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. The solution was also very simple, continue to give Chloe Attribute Orbs to strengthen her spirit. But Jason Williams didn''t have the idea of continuing to give Chloe Attribute Orbs. In the future, he would appropriately reward Attribute Orbs based on Chloe''s performance, rather than selflessly nurturing Chloe. Sarah Jones had given Jason Williams a profound lesson: nurturing her to pass civil service exams, and then getting kicked to the curb after she succeeded. Jason Williams didn''t want Chloe to become a second Sarah Jones. Jason Williams summarized the gains from the two chests. In addition to harvesting the corpses of two Gray Wolves, Jason Williams also opened a loaf of bread, a sausage, a bottle of cola, a vehicle headlight Blueprint, and 10 Escape Coins from the two chests. Jason Williams was very satisfied with this harvest. After Chloe returned to the passenger seat, she rubbed her temples, looking uncomfortable. "Jason... hubby, I have a bit of a headache; I can''t use Mind Blast for now." "Okay, you rest; we''ll stop here for today." Jason Williams glanced at the fuel tank. The original 100 units of gasoline inside were almost bottoming out. His search task for today was also over. He could only wait for the system to distribute gasoline tomorrow before the RV could continue driving. Jason Williams opened the system''s chat channel. At this time, the chat channel was very lively; most people''s situations were the same as Jason Williams''s: their cars were out of fuel, and they could only stop to rest. So, many people focused their attention on the channel. Jason Williams glanced at the number of people in the channel: 8865/10000. Clearly, more than a thousand people had died on the first day of the Escape World. He continued to look at the chat content. Mark Johnson: "Tell everyone a piece of news. After I was abandoned by the vehicle owner, I originally thought I would die on the highway, but I didn''t expect there to be a bus to pick me up." "Really? There''s actually a bus picking people up? Bro, you''re lucky to have survived a disaster." Mark Johnson: "Hahaha... yeah, if anyone is dissatisfied with the vehicle owner in the future, you can get off the vehicle and wait on the highway for a bus to pick you up." "Bastard Mark Johnson, you''re still not dead? Everyone, I''m the vehicle owner who abandoned Mark Johnson. This person took advantage of us luring away the Goblins and secretly took the six Attribute Orbs in the Bronze Chest, strengthening his speed to E+ Rank. Everyone must be careful of this bastard Mark Johnson; he will definitely secretly take resources in the future." Mark Johnson: "Bullshit, you told me to lure the monsters to my death but was chased by the monsters instead. That''s why I secretly took those Attribute Orbs." Mark Johnson and the vehicle owner accused and cursed each other, allowing many people in the channel to watch the excitement. At the same time, Mark Johnson also revealed a piece of information, that after getting off the vehicle and staying on the highway, there would be a bus to pick people up. This made many people have some careful thoughts. Among them, many vehicle owners were secretly taking resources, causing dissatisfaction among many followers. Some vehicle owners were even afraid of danger and would assign followers to lure monsters and steal treasure chests. Therefore, some followers had long wanted to secretly kill the vehicle owner but were worried that the means of transportation would disappear after the vehicle owner died, and they would be trapped to death on the highway. Now, with Mark Johnson''s example, some followers had some crooked thoughts. Jason Williams stroked his chin; he was a reborn person and already knew this kind of information. He also knew more information, such as if the vehicle owner was left on the highway, there would also be a bus to pick up the vehicle owner. Then the vehicle owner would bring people down from the bus, wait on the highway for a period of time, and then they would be able to wait for a teammate to drive over to pick them up. This was actually one of the ways vehicle owners recruited followers. Jason Williams was wondering if he should use this method tomorrow to find some beautiful virgins to get on the vehicle. He currently only had Chloe to get More Favor Points with; it was really too little. There must be more women on the vehicle. Now that the Escape World had just started, there would still be some virgins. But once the time was long, most of the virgins would die or be defiled, and it would be difficult for him to find beautiful virgins in the future. This was also the reason why David Lee had specifically gone to capture Lily Young in his previous life. Jason Williams made up his mind that after the gasoline was distributed tomorrow, he would go to the bus to find beautiful virgins. Of course, if he could find Lily Young, it would be even better. After all, Jason Williams had a special feeling for Lily Young. 14 - Lily Young Need Help Thinking of Lily Young, Jason Williams remembered that the girl was probably still hungry on the bus. Through today''s experience, Lily Young should have realized the cruelty of the Escape World. It was time to make contact. So, Jason Williams took out a loaf of bread and a bottle of water from the supplies he had found today, deciding to support Lily Young... On the bus. Lily Young sat in the corner, feeling thirsty and hungry. Compared to the problems of thirst and hunger, Lily Young was now more worried about where to go in the future. At this moment, the moving bus slowly stopped, and everyone on the bus perked up. Everyone knew that they had encountered another treasure chest. Everyone looked outside the bus, where a Goblin was guarding a Bronze Chest in the Wasteland. "Everyone, it''s our turn for this treasure chest," a middle-aged man warned. This was what they had discussed before, that the treasure chests they encountered would be distributed by the groups on the bus in turn. Hearing the middle-aged man''s words, some people put away their careful thoughts and then sneered: "Hmph, Mark Johnson, your luck is very bad. This time you''ve encountered a Bronze Chest guarded by a Goblin." "Hehe... You have to be careful, don''t get killed by the Goblin." "You..." The middle-aged man named Mark Johnson looked a little ugly. As these people said, this time the treasure chest... was precisely a Bronze Chest guarded by a Goblin. They might have someone die at the hands of the Goblin. But now, if Mark Johnson and his group gave up and waited for the next round of treasure chests, they would be unwilling. After all, they were still hungry, so they had to bite the bullet. So, Mark Johnson called three men to get off the bus, steeling themselves to deal with the Goblin. Many people on the bus watched the show with a sneer. Lily Young sighed. It was already so difficult for a few men to acquire resources. Could she, a woman, only wait to die on the bus...? At this moment, a system notification sounded. [You have a friend gifting you items, do you want to receive them?] What!? A look of doubt flashed in Lily Young''s eyes, and she opened the system to check. She only had one friend in her chat channel, Jason Williams, who had added her inexplicably before. Lily Young discovered that Jason Williams had gifted her a loaf of bread and a bottle of water. So, Lily Young immediately sent a message to inquire. "Why are you giving me food and water?" Jason Williams, seeing Lily Young''s message, was prepared and replied: "I''m preparing to build a team, are you interested in joining?" Then Jason Williams attached a photo of the RV, proving that he had the qualifications to build a team. Seeing that Jason Williams wanted to recruit her, it was false to say that Lily Young wasn''t tempted. If she wanted to survive in this Escape World, there was only one path. That was to join a team that could protect her. But she was a girl with no strength, which team would take her in as a burden? Lily Young suddenly became vigilant. That''s right. She was a burden, why would Jason Williams recruit her? Before Lily Young could ask the questions in her heart, Jason Williams had already told her the answer. "You''re beautiful, so I want to take you in as my woman. The conditions are room and board, and I''ll protect you in the future." Simple and direct, just like when Jason Williams recruited Chloe onto the vehicle, there were no roundabout ways. If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. I''m recruiting you onto the vehicle because I want to take you in as my woman. The conditions are room and board. Vehicle owners in the previous life recruited followers so simply and directly, proposing conditions, and those who agreed could get on the vehicle. Jason Williams was considered civilized. If it were David Lee, he wouldn''t even ask; as long as you were a virgin, he would directly grab you onto the vehicle. Lily Young clearly did not expect Jason Williams to be so direct, and her face flushed red, not knowing how to answer. Her shy appearance would inspire the desire to protect in any man who saw it. Lily Young clicked on Jason Williams''s avatar and saw the photo of the handsome and dashing young man again. Her mood was completely different from before. Before, when Jason Williams added her, she was worried that Jason Williams had ulterior motives towards her. But now that she understood the situation in the Escape World, Jason Williams would likely be the person she relied on. Lily Young admitted that she was tempted. For a girl who had just come of age, she had naturally fantasized about how her man would be handsome and dashing. Jason Williams already met most of those requirements. However, she didn''t understand Jason Williams yet; was this man really worth entrusting herself to? After considering for a moment, Lily Young clenched her small fist, deciding to take a gamble. She didn''t have the qualifications to negotiate conditions with Jason Williams. If Jason Williams didn''t care about her, she would starve or die of thirst on the bus in a day or two. Even if she didn''t die, with her looks, she would be targeted by some men sooner or later and become a tool for venting lust. "How will you protect me? I''m on the bus now, can you come pick me up?" "Also, if the food and water you gave me appear on the bus, they''ll definitely be snatched; how am I supposed to eat them?" Lily Young didn''t directly state that she was willing to become Jason Williams''s woman, but instead told Jason Williams about her current predicament. If Jason Williams had the ability to solve it, she would naturally be Jason Williams''s woman in the future. Jason Williams, seeing Lily Young''s questions, indeed felt troubled. After thinking for a moment, Jason Williams directly exchanged twelve Attribute Orbs using Favor Points. The 21 Favor Points he had originally saved were directly reduced to 9. Jason Williams decided to give Lily Young twelve Attribute Orbs to increase her strength. Attribute Orbs were precious, but they weren''t difficult for Jason Williams to obtain. Compared to the twelve Attribute Orbs, Jason Williams was more worried about Lily Young''s safety. "Lily, I''ll give you twelve Attribute Orbs. Strengthen your strength and speed attributes to E+ Rank. That way, no one on the bus will be your opponent." "Lily?" Lily Young frowned when saw Jason Williams message. She hadn''t agreed to be Jason Williams''s women, but the other side used that intimate title. However, then saw Jason Williams would give her twelve Attribute Orbs, she was completely shocked. Really? Twelve Attribute Orbs? Lily Young now suspected Jason Williams to make fun of her. She would pay attention to the chat channel from time to time, she naturally knew the skills and value of Attribute Orbs. One Attribute Orb was invaluable, how could Jason Williams give her twelve? Truly, he thinks the item are a roadside pebble! However, by the next second, she was left unable to speak due to being shocked. [You have a friend gifting you items, do you want to receive them?] Jason Williams had truly gifted her twelve Attribute Orbs. Lily Young tried to click receive. In the next moment, a handful of pigeon-egg-sized orbs of light appeared in her hand, totaling twelve. Even the young woman sitting next to Lily Young was shocked by this scene, covering her mouth in disbelief. These orbs of light... Could they be the Attribute Orbs mentioned in the chat channel? Lily Young was also a little flustered and quickly absorbed the Attribute Orbs. Only after all the orbs of light disappeared did she breathe a sigh of relief. Lily Young glanced at the young woman next to her, signaling her not to speak, and then opened her personal attributes, strengthening her speed and strength to E+ Rank. Only after feeling her strength increase did she feel relieved. 15 - Tiffany Wilson Tiffany Wilson looked at the little sister in a school uniform next to her, wondering if she was hallucinating. This sister suddenly had a handful of orbs of light. These orbs of light seemed to be the Attribute Orbs mentioned in the chat channel. It wasn''t until she personally witnessed all those Attribute Orbs being absorbed by Lily Young that Tiffany Wilson came back to her senses. "Sister, you..." Tiffany Wilson wanted to speak, but Lily Young stopped her in time. Then, Lily Young produced a loaf of bread and a bottle of water. Food and water!? This time Tiffany Wilson was even more shocked. What was going on? Could this sister do magic? No, Tiffany Wilson immediately realized that someone must have been using the system to send resources to this sister. This sister was pure and cute, so it wasn''t strange that a man would take a fancy to her. She wondered which sucker was being so generous. Tiffany Wilson''s heart surged. Her looks weren''t bad either, and she was still a virgin. Maybe she also had a chance to latch onto that sucker? She had kept herself pure for over twenty years, just to find a rich man. It just so happened that it had now changed to a man with strength. While Tiffany Wilson was in a daze, Lily Young had already secretly started eating the bread. Worried that Tiffany Wilson next to her would make a fuss, she broke off a small piece of bread and shared it with Tiffany Wilson. Tiffany Wilson''s stomach had long been empty. Seeing Lily Young sharing bread with her, she didn''t stand on ceremony and took it. The two women lowered their heads and secretly ate the bread. At this time, everyone on the bus was focused on Mark Johnson and his companions outside the window, and no one noticed that the two women were secretly eating bread. The two women quickly finished the loaf of bread, since they were both hungry, and even finished the bottle of water. Having received food and water to replenish her energy, Tiffany Wilson was in a great mood, reaching out to hug Lily Young. "Good sister, you really saved my life." Mwah! Tiffany Wilson directly kissed Lily Young''s small face, making Lily Young''s face turn red instantly. "What are you doing?" "Good sister, don''t even think about hiding it from me. Quickly tell me, which man has taken a fancy to you?" Tiffany Wilson whispered into Lily Young''s ear. Just as Lily Young was about to deny it, a burst of exclamations rang out on the bus. The two women quickly looked towards the window. It turned out that the Goblin guarding the treasure chest had killed two men, leaving only Mark Johnson with one other man, running back to the road in a panic. "This Goblin is really cunning, actually pretending to be lured away, then suddenly turning back to kill the people stealing the treasure chest." "Hehe, now Mark Johnson and his group only have two people left. The next scene will be good to watch..." Many people on the bus were gloating over Mark Johnson and his group''s situation. Lily Young''s eyes flickered as she looked at the Bronze Chest in the Wasteland, actually having the thought of trying it out. Now that her speed and strength had been strengthened, maybe she had a chance to lure the Goblin away? So, Lily Young looked at Tiffany Wilson next to her and asked softly, "Sister, if I lure that Goblin away, would you dare to steal the things in the treasure chest?" "What!?" Tiffany Wilson was startled. This silly sister actually wanted her to steal the treasure chest. Tiffany Wilson wanted to refuse, but thinking that Lily Young had absorbed a handful of Attribute Orbs, she might not be able to lure the Goblin away. Tiffany Wilson was silent for a while, considering whether or not to take a risk with Lily Young. Originally, she wanted to pick a man with strength and resources on the bus to attach herself to. But Lily Young opened up her mind. The men on the bus, whether or not they could feed themselves was a problem, would she have a good life after attaching herself to them? This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. But the sugar daddy behind Lily Young was different. Being able to take out a handful of Attribute Orbs to make a little beauty happy, he must have a strong background. This was the man that Tiffany Wilson wanted to attach herself to. Tiffany Wilson had a lot of confidence in her looks. Among the dozen or so women on the entire bus, only Lily Young could compare with her. This was also why she was sitting next to Lily Young. Her initial idea was that two beauties sitting together might attract a few simps. She didn''t expect the men on the bus to be worse than each other. Even if there were simps, they couldn''t take out anything to simp for her. Taking back her thoughts, Tiffany Wilson decided to take a gamble. "Good sister, it''s okay for sister to steal the treasure chest, but you must promise sister one condition." "What condition?" Lily Young asked curiously. Tiffany Wilson smiled charmingly: "You have to introduce the man behind you to me." "If you don''t agree, I won''t take the risk with you." However, Lily Young''s answer was completely beyond Tiffany Wilson''s expectations. "No problem." Lily Young answered without hesitation, not afraid that Tiffany Wilson would steal the man behind her. Then, Lily Young pulled up Tiffany Wilson, and the two women walked out of the bus in full view. "Hey, why did those two beauties get off the bus? Were they going to pee?" Someone asked curiously. As soon as these words came out, many men on the bus had a thought in their hearts, all focusing their attention on the two women. However, to their disappointment, the two women actually walked directly towards the Goblin. "Damn, right? Those two beauties aren''t going to reward the Goblin, are they?" After hearing this, many people on the bus rolled their eyes. Reward my ass. Could you shut your mouth, what you say always makes people think wildly. At this time, in the Wasteland, the Goblin''s eyes lit up when it saw Lily Young and Tiffany Wilson, and its wretched eyes showed a strong desire. Beautiful females had always been the most coveted pursuit of Goblins. It was then that Lily Young, after walking out of the road, quickly threw stones at the Goblin. The stones she threw had great force, and even the Goblin didn''t dare to take them head-on. "Waaah!" The Goblin screamed strangely and chased after Lily Young. Lily Young threw stones while running. The Goblin excitedly chased after her from behind. Tiffany Wilson stood on the side of the road without moving. She was very cautious, fearing that the Goblin would turn back. After all, the previous two men had died at the hands of the Goblin in this way. Mark Johnson and the other man on the side looked at each other. They were already afraid to face the Goblin again and could only watch the show on the road. After chasing for a distance, the Goblin looked back and found that no one was stealing its treasure chest, and a hint of disappointment flashed in its eyes. At this time, Lily Young continued to lose stones to hit the Goblin. Bang! A stone hit the Goblin, causing it to scream in pain. The stones thrown by Lily Young''s E+ level of strength were not a joke. The painful Goblin sucked in a breath of cold air. The Goblin roared angrily, it was provoked, and it had to catch Lily Young today. So, it didn''t care about the treasure chest and chased after Lily Young. Seeing this, Tiffany Wilson on the side of the road didn''t dare to delay and immediately ran towards the treasure chest. She was also going all out this time. Running to the treasure chest, she opened it directly, inside there was only a blueprints. Tiffany Wilson didn''t have time to think too much, picked up the blueprints, and ran back. By the time the Goblin found out that the treasure chest had been stolen, it was already too late, and Tiffany Wilson was already running back to the road. Seeing this, Lily Young also ran back to the road, leaving the Goblin roaring wildly in place. "Sister, we succeeded!" Lily Young ran excitedly to Tiffany Wilson, her small face flushed with excitement. Tiffany Wilson felt her legs were a little soft and nodded with lingering fear: "We succeeded..." 16 - I needmore Inside the RV. Jason Williams obviously had no idea what had happened after he gave Lily Young twelve Attribute Orbs. He was currently assigning Chloe a task. "Hubby, you want me to help you sell Wooden Spears?" Chloe clearly hadn''t expected Jason Williams to entrust her with this kind of task. Jason Williams nodded and then told Chloe about the RV''s ability to record Blueprints. Since he wanted Chloe to help him sell Wooden Spears, this ability to record Blueprints couldn''t be hidden, so it was better to tell Chloe directly. Chloe''s eyes widened. "Really? Hubby... with this ability to record Blueprints, will we never have to worry about food and drink again?" "Yeah, but you have to keep this a secret; you can''t tell anyone," Jason Williams warned seriously. Chloe nodded quickly. She wasn''t stupid; she wouldn''t dare to randomly talk about such an important ability. Now, Chloe''s gaze toward Jason Williams already carried a hint of admiration. She now understood how lucky she was to have become Jason Williams''s woman. Chloe''s Favor Points +6. Jason Williams received another 6 Favor Points; the Favor Points had reached 15. "Hubby, I''m selling Wooden Spears, so what are you selling?" Chloe asked curiously. She couldn''t understand why Jason Williams would give her the job of selling Wooden Spears. Selling things wasn''t too much trouble. Jason Williams wouldn''t give her all the money-making work just to be lazy, would he? Hearing Chloe''s question, Jason Williams replied, "I''m not selling things. I''m responsible for exchanging Attribute Orbs for Blueprints." Huh!? "You still have Attribute Orbs?" Chloe asked in confusion. She had just seen Jason Williams give away more than a dozen Attribute Orbs to someone. Now he was going to use Attribute Orbs to exchange for Blueprints; where did so many Attribute Orbs come from? "Hubby, are you still hiding some abilities?" "Why are your Attribute Orbs like they never run out? Don''t tell me they all come from opening treasure chests." Chloe questioned, staring into Jason Williams''s eyes. She strongly suspected that Jason Williams had the ability to get More Favor Points. Seeing Chloe question him, Jason Williams knew that this kind of thing couldn''t be hidden for long. He had handled too many Attribute Orbs, which were obviously not obtained through normal channels. "Okay, I won''t hide it anymore." Jason Williams said frankly. "This RV actually has another ability, which is that after collecting vehicle fare from a virgin, it will reward Attribute Orbs." Jason Williams concealed the ability to exchange Favor Points for Attribute Orbs and replaced it with rewarding Attribute Orbs for ''collecting virgin''s vehicle fare.'' This way, he would have a legitimate reason to get a virgin in the future. "Ah?" Chloe was obviously too shocked to speak. She was the first victim of being charged a vehicle fare. Then Chloe angrily kicked the RV with her little feet. "What an improper vehicle, bah, a rogue RV." Jason Williams could only awkwardly rub his nose on the side, looking like it had nothing to do with him. The RV was rogue; it had nothing to do with Jason Williams. At this time, Chloe suddenly thought of something and glared at Jason Williams. "Did you force yourself on me for two hours for the Attribute Orbs?" Uh... Jason Williams''s mouth twitched, and then he quickly shook his head to deny it. "Not entirely; it''s mainly because you''re also very Beautiful, and I couldn''t control myself." Did you know this story is from Royal Road? Read the official version for free and support the author. Hearing Jason Williams''s forced explanation, Chloe rolled her eyes and didn''t pursue the matter further. She had said before that giving her the skill book was to forgive ''forcing for two hours.'' However, after Jason Williams confessed the RV''s abilities, the relationship with Chloe was obviously much closer. Chloe had completely accepted the fact of becoming Jason Williams''s woman in her heart. You should know that she had been Jason Williams''s woman for less than a day. Actually, there was a reason why Jason Williams had Chloe sell Wooden Spears and he himself acquired Blueprints. If these two things were done by one person, people with ulterior motives would soon discover the problem. For example, I sell you Blueprints, and you turn around and sell a large number of items from the Blueprints. People will definitely guess that there is an ability to record Blueprints. In addition to this, it is also easy to cause jealousy. If Jason Williams sells a large number of items to make money, people with good Blueprints will definitely raise the price of the Blueprints when selling them to Jason Williams. Even because of jealousy and worry about Jason Williams''s strength, they would rather collect the Blueprints or sell them to others than sell them to Jason Williams. Therefore, it is very necessary for the two to separate, one selling items and one acquiring Blueprints. Even in the future, after other women get on the vehicle, Jason Williams will also let them sell other items. After Chloe received Jason Williams''s instructions, she opened the chat channel and then sent out the information of the Wooden Spears, followed by a message. "Selling 50 Wooden Spears, 20 Escape Coins each, can also be exchanged for other resources, first come, first served." Chloe''s information instantly exploded in the channel. On the first day of the Escape World, most people did not have weapons, and their fighting method was to throw stones at monsters. Gray Wolves and venomous snakes could barely be driven away, but Goblins would not work. Many people did not dare to take the treasure chest because they did not have weapons in their hands. So many people immediately sent private messages to Chloe, fearing that they would be one step late and would not buy a Wooden Spear. In an instant, Chloe received hundreds of private messages, and she was too busy to handle it. Jason Williams was responsible for manufacturing Wooden Spears on the side. Chloe gave the Escape Coins earned from selling Wooden Spears to Jason Williams, and the two cooperated to harvest the wealth of others. After the two were busy for a while, Jason Williams saw that it was almost done, and he also opened the chat channel. "Attribute Orbs for Blueprints, only a few, first come, first served." After Jason Williams sent the message, many people immediately sent him private messages. In fact, many people have obtained good Blueprints, but they do not have enough Escape Coins to synthesize them. Seeing Jason Williams''s message of exchanging Attribute Orbs for Blueprints, some people decided to exchange the Blueprints that could not be synthesized for Attribute Orbs to improve their strength. Of course, some people will collect good Blueprints and wait until they have enough Escape Coins to synthesize them. Jason Williams began to check the private messages one by one and soon found many good Blueprints. There are battery Blueprints, planting pot Blueprints, 1-star combat boot Blueprints, and 1-star tire Blueprints. Jason Williams took down these four Blueprints at a value of two Attribute Orbs per sheet. In this way, Jason Williams still has 7 Favor Points left. There are also some Blueprints such as toilet paper, sanitary napkins, wooden buckets, sofas, iron pots, and lighters, all of which Jason Williams exchanged for a Wooden Spear. This enriched Jason Williams''s Blueprint reserves. The owners of these Blueprints did not exchange for Attribute Orbs but exchanged for a weapon, which was extremely happy. In their opinion, these broken Blueprints are really useless. For example, the sofa Blueprint, there is no place to put it out after synthesizing it, what is the use of it? Anyway, they themselves did not hope to exchange things, but they unexpectedly exchanged for Wooden Spears from Jason Williams, which made them pleasantly surprised. So they said that they would definitely find Jason Williams to exchange for Blueprints in the future. Jason Williams also said that as long as the Blueprints were good enough, he would also use Attribute Orbs to exchange them. The transaction ended satisfactorily with both parties satisfied. "Hubby, someone wants to exchange a special equipment for four Wooden Spears. Do you think we should exchange it?" At this time, Chloe, who was busy on the side, asked. Then Chloe sent the information of the special equipment to Jason Williams. [Disguise Mask]: Special equipment, can change the wearer''s face after equipping. Seeing this equipment, Jason Williams''s eyes lit up: "Exchange it, but four Wooden Spears are too many. Reduce the price to two." 17 - Chloes girlfriend Chloe, following Jason''s instructions, haggled and traded two wooden spears for a disguise mask. The disguise mask was useful, in a way. But it didn''t enhance combat abilities. For some, two wooden spears were more practical. For Jason, however, the disguise mask hid his true identity. Jason didn''t want to attract everyone''s attention just yet. He just wanted to lay low, secretly develop, and collect as many virgins, blueprints, and resources as possible. The disguise mask perfectly concealed his identity. It would be perfect for wearing on the bus tomorrow. After exchanging the mask, Chloe continued trading wooden spears for supplies. Besides Escape Coins, Chloe also acquired a lot of food. Things like bread, cookies, ramen, hot dogs, bottled water, and a whole bunch more, all piled up in the corner of the RV. This was something Jason specifically told her to do. Stocking up on food now was the right move. As the saying goes, a full pantry brings peace of mind. Then, a private message sent a shock through Chloe, making her eyes redden. Ah! Hubby, my my girlfriend contacted me! Chloe exclaimed excitedly. Jason was completely baffled. What the heck? Your girlfriend? Jason thought he''d misheard, but Chloe was already engrossed in her chat. Jason wanted to ask for clarification but hesitated to interrupt. He realized Chloe had encountered someone she knew. It wasn''t an unlikely scenario. If you were with someone before entering the Escape World, there was a high chance of landing in the same area. Like Jason and Sarah. Sarah had been breaking up with Jason when they unexpectedly arrived in the same area. After a while... Chloe stopped chatting and looked at Jason with a pitiful expression, as if she needed something. Jason seized the opportunity to inquire about the situation. After hearing Chloe''s explanation, he finally understood. Enjoying this book? Seek out the original to ensure the author gets credit. It turned out Chloe was a lesbian. Before entering the Escape World, Chloe had been on a date with her girlfriend, Sophie Wilson, and then they both arrived in the same areathough not together like Jason and Sarah. Neither woman knew the other was in the same area. It wasn''t until Chloe was selling wooden spears in the channel that Sophie recognized her and immediately contacted her. Hubby~, can you get Sophie to the RV? She''s too dangerous on the bus. Chloe suddenly clung to Jasons arm, acting cute. Jason was somewhat taken aback by Chloe''s sudden display of affection. Chloe was a stunning beauty, and her cuteness almost made Jason agree to anything. Ahem Jason coughed, trying to maintain his composure, and asked, "Uh isSophie a virgin?" Chloes smile faltered. She almost wanted to beat Jason up. However, Chloe understood the RV''s capabilities and knew Jason''s motives. It was better to bring Sophie to the RV and enjoy it together than leave her on the dangerous bus. Of course shes a virgin, my Sophie has never been with any men, women aside. Chloe said confidently. Apart from her, no one had ever touched Sophie. Too bad she would be leaving Sophie to Jason soon. After receiving Chloes assurance, Jason asked another concerned question. Chloe, is Sophie pretty? Chloe rolled her eyes and opened her system to show Jason a picture of Sophie. Jason gave a thumbs-up after a glance. She was a beauty. A cute, princess-like beauty. Her looks were definitely on par with Chloe''s. Jason looked at Chloe and asked, Im okay with it. Is Sophie willing to come with me? Chloe patted her chest confidently: Ill persuade her, but I dont know how to get her from the bus to the RV. If we wait too long, Im worried about Sophies safety. I heard shes been harassed by some men on the bus. Jason frowned, unable to ignore Sophies situation. Chloe, tell Sophie about me first, ask if shes willing to come with me. I can give Sophie some Attribute Orbs to boost her strength. Then tomorrow, Ill go to a few buses and see if I can find Sophie Jason explained his method of finding people on buses. Chloe was overjoyed and immediately contacted Sophie. Jason waited. After a while, Chloe seemed to have told Sophie a lot. Hubby, Sophie wants to chat with you. Add her as a friend. Jason nodded and opened his system. Soon, Sophies friend request appeared. After adding each other, Sophie immediately sent a message: Uh, did you you know Chloe? Jason knew exactly what Sophie meant and replied: Chloe probably told you everything, why ask me again? All I can tell you is that Chloe is doing well, or she wouldnt have sent you to me. So? Are you willing to come to my RV? Sophie was silent for a moment before replying: Yeah, I trust Chloe. Jason nodded in satisfaction and used Favor Points to give Sophie six Attribute Orbs. Sophie, absorb these six Attribute Orbs, then enhance your Strength to E+ Rank. That way, you''ll be able to protect yourself on the bus. Thanks, Jason. Sophie replied. On a certain bus Sophie, dressed in a white dress like a princess, secretly absorbed the Attribute Orbs. Then she opened her system and enhanced her Strength to E+ Rank. After that, Sophie opened Jasons profile, seeing the handsome man, her face flushed slightly. Hes so handsome Sophie subconsciously clenched her legs, various unsavory images flashing through her mind. She wondered if she could last two hours. She didn''t want to get herself killed; she didn''t have Chloe''s stamina. Sophie felt both excited and nervous about going to Jason''s RV. There was also a little worry. But those were things to consider later. For now, Sophie had to wait for Jason to pick her up. All she needed to do was protect herself. There were quite a few men on this bus eyeing her. On the other hand After giving Sophie six Attribute Orbs, Jason looked at his remaining 1 Favor Point and felt a headache coming on. This Favor Point thing is way too slow. No, I need to get more. So Jason turned his attention back to Chloe, selling her wooden spears. How can I get more Favor Points from Chloe? [A friend has sent you an item. Do you wish to receive it?] A system prompt suddenly interrupted Jasons thoughts. Whats going on? Someone sent me something? Jason checked his system and found that it was Lily Young who had sent him blueprints. 18 - Tiffany Wilson want to join in After Jason Williams received the Blueprints gifted by Lily Young, he was a little stunned. He looked at the Blueprint information. [Mobile Mega-Bathroom]: 2-Star vehicle equipment, including a solar charging panel, water heater, and large water collector, which can automatically absorb moisture from the air within a hundred-meter radius. Blueprint Manufacturing Count: 1 Manufacturing Required: 2000 Escape Coins. Holy crap! So heaven-defying? Jason Williams was startled after seeing the Blueprint''s information. Was this a Blueprint that should appear on the first day of the Escape World? Jason Williams immediately asked Lily Young how she obtained this Blueprint. Lily Young seemed to have known he would ask and directly told him the entire story. Jason Williams was silent for a while after listening. Sure enough, on the first day of the Escape World, Bronze Chests would definitely produce high-quality items, just like he had opened the Skill Book. There must be many people like him who had opened high-quality things from the Bronze Chests. It''s just that they were all keeping it to themselves. "Um... Jason Williams bro, I met a very beautiful sister on the bus. Obtaining this Blueprint was also thanks to her. She also wants to meet you. Do you want to let her add you as a friend?" From the message, it could be seen that Lily Young was trying her best to recommend a beauty to him. This made Jason Williams very curious. Just which beauty was it? After all, he had taken that bus in his previous life, so he recognized most of the people. Jason Williams replied: "Let her add me as a friend." Soon, Jason Williams received a friend request. Tiffany Wilson? Jason Williams didn''t recognize the name, but after seeing the woman''s photo, he had some impression. He remembered that in his previous life, this woman had sold her first time for a loaf of bread... Meanwhile, Lily Young had almost starved and died of thirst on the bus. That was how Jason Williams came to share some food and water and save Lily Young. Jason Williams didn''t have a deep impression of Tiffany Wilson. If she didn''t have some looks, Jason Williams wouldn''t even remember her. But Jason Williams could be sure of one thing. This woman''s first time was still intact. Then she met the conditions to get on the RV. So Jason Williams added Tiffany Wilson as a friend. "Handsome, hello. Lily Young sister praised you to me that you are a handsome guy, after seeing your photo, I know that what she said is not fake at all." "Just now Lily Young also told me, want to introduce a beautiful sister to me, didn''t expect it really is a beauty." "Say it, beauty, what''s the matter for looking for me?" Jason Williams replied. Tiffany Wilson, after seeing Jason Williams praised her as a beauty, her heart involuntarily pleased. Then directly replied. "I also want to follow you, like Lily Young sister." In fact, Lily Young had long ago told Tiffany Wilson the whole process of Jason Williams adding her. After understanding, Tiffany Wilson knew that Jason Williams''s method of collecting women was very direct, without any roundabout ways. So Tiffany Wilson also directly expressed her desire to follow Jason Williams. Jason Williams nodded, liked this direct way of expression of Tiffany Wilson. In fact, from Tiffany Wilson adding him as a friend, Jason Williams had already guessed her purpose. If roundabout, implicit expression, would only make Jason Williams annoyed. Such direct, but let Jason Williams looked at her a few points more highly. You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story. So Jason Williams replied: "Can, including food and accommodation, protect your safety." "But you have to guarantee the identity and loyalty of the virgin." "Um um, in the future my heart will only have you a man, the body also only belongs to you one person." Tiffany Wilson excitedly replied. Now she more understand the form of the Escape World, the heart is more no sense of security. So she realized that the adhesion to Jason Williams, this kind of strong is how important a thing. "You and Lily wait in the bus first, I''ll try to find a way to pick you up as soon as possible." "The issue of food and water is also not to worry, I''ll be supporting you every day." "If there is danger contact me as soon as possible, I will support you with weapons." Jason Williams again to Tiffany Wilson explained to pay more attention to safety, let Lily Young not to risk again. On the bus. Tiffany Wilson saw Jason Williams''s message, subconsciously looked at the entire bus. At this time, all the men inside the bus were lying on the ground groaning and begging for mercy. While Lily Young was standing domineeringly in the middle, a look of invincibility, who and who contend. More than a dozen men on the bus were all knocked down by Lily Young alone. Tiffany Wilson was a little helpless. She could only use the system panel to take a picture of the scene and send it to Jason Williams. Jason Williams didn''t know what to say for a moment after seeing it. So Jason Williams immediately sent a message to Lily Young. "Lily, in the future, you and Tiffany are not allowed to lure monsters or steal treasure chests. Those monsters are not as simple as you think." "You and Tiffany only need to protect yourselves, wait for me to pick you up." Lily Young received Jason Williams''s message, the little face a collapse. If she didn''t lure monsters and steal treasure chests, it would be a waste not to take the good things in the treasure chests. But Lily Young can''t not listen to Jason Williams''s words. What to do about this? Lily Young glanced at the dozen or so men on the ground, couldn''t help but the eyes lit up. She can include these people as underlings, let them go to lure monsters steal treasure chests ah. "Jason Williams bro, are there any extra unwanted food there?" "I want to use food to collect people on the bus as henchmen, let them go to lure monsters steal treasure chests how?" Jason Williams saw Lily Young''s message, could not help but sighed in a breath. Lily Young is not in his side, Jason Williams is really a little relieved. Afraid that this silly sister head a fever, and went to lure the monster. "Lily, the food can give you a wolf corpse, but you have to promise me, no matter what the treasure chest, you and Tiffany are not allowed to participate in lure monsters steal treasure chests." "Um, I promise you." Lily Young replied. So Jason Williams just relieved. So he gifted a wolf corpse to Lily Young. On the bus. Lily Young in front of the suddenly more out a wolf corpse. "This... this is not the gray wolf who guarded the Wooden Chest, someone can kill the gray wolf... really amazing." Many people on the bus exclaimed, incredulously watching Lily Young''s feet of the wolf corpse. Even more shocking to them was that the wound on the wolf''s corpse was only one place in the head. It looked like it was obviously killed by an instant piercing wolf head with a sharp weapon. It was a spike ah! What kind of strong, simply terrifying. They are still worried about starvation, has a strong can one-shot spike gray wolf it? While knowing the source of the wolf corpse of Lily Young and Tiffany Wilson are also shocked. The two women''s hearts to Jason Williams is more worshiped. In their eyes of the lure monsters and steal treasure chests is still pattern is small. Obviously Jason Williams there has been started killing monsters, no wonder people can give Lily Young 12 Attribute Orbs. Everyone is no longer a level of existence. While Tiffany Wilson was excited to hold his fists tightly. This is the powerful man she wants to rely on, she really did not choose the wrong. And Jason Williams didn''t know, he casually gifted the wolf corpse, to this bus brought what kind of shock. While Lily Young by the support of this wolf corpse, became the boss of the bus. On the bus except Tiffany Wilson, all men and women have become her younger brother. Tonight they want to eat this wolf corpse. 19 - Bathroom Get！ "Chloe, transfer all the Escape Coins you have to me." Jason Williams looked at the Mega-Bathroom Blueprint and decided to synthesize it. After hearing this, Chloe transferred all the Escape Coins to Jason Williams. After receiving them, Jason Williams''s number of Escape Coins had reached 7586. Hiss... Although he had been mentally prepared, Jason Williams still took a breath of cold air. More than seven thousand Escape Coins, a quarter of the entire area''s Escape Coins should be in his hands. "Chloe, how many Wooden Spears did you sell?" "More than six hundred, the exact number can''t be remembered." Chloe replied uncertainly. The cost price of a Wooden Spear was 5 Escape Coins, sold at a price of 20. The profit was 15 per spear. Selling more than six hundred spears, earning more than seven thousand Escape Coins, in addition to which, a large number of bread, instant noodles and other foods were exchanged. Many teams, in order to buy one or two Wooden Spears, had been harvested to the point of bankruptcy. Jason Williams couldn''t help but once again sigh at the terrifying power of the S-Rank RV ability. With money in hand, Jason Williams also began to synthesize the Blueprints in his hand with peace of mind. Synthesizing the mobile mega-bathroom cost 2000 Escape Coins. Subsequently, an extra door appeared out of thin air inside the RV. But behind the door directly formed a different space. And the door hanging a sign [Mega-Bathroom]. Jason Williams, with a hint of curiosity, pushed the door to go in and check. The space inside the bathroom was very large. Even if there were more than a dozen people coming in to take a bath, it would not appear crowded. The bathroom entrance was a changing room. In the most central part of the bathroom, there was a large bathtub, which could accommodate many people soaking in it. In addition, there was a sauna room, Two beds for people to scrub. As well as a dozen shower heads hanging around the walls. After seeing the construction of the large bathroom, Jason Williams felt very satisfied. But Jason Williams knew that these were not the most valuable things inside the Mega-Bathroom. What was truly precious were the solar charging panels, water heater, and large water collector, these three items. The large water collector could free up Jason Williams''s water resources, and he would never have to worry about water sources again. Moreover, the collected water could also be drunk, and even sold. It was simply a one-shot deal. And the solar charging panel was the same. In the future, as long as there was sunshine, Jason Williams would have a continuous supply of power. At the same time, Jason Williams also had Battery Blueprints, he could manufacture some more batteries to store power. Jason Williams walked to the bathroom entrance and saw the power, water level display. At this time, the water collector had begun to collect water. Just needed to wait patiently for a while, Jason Williams could take a shower tonight. As for the power, but because it was almost evening, no sunlight, temporarily unable to collect. But Jason Williams could manufacture batteries to provide power to the water heater. Then Jason Williams at 200 Escape Coins a Battery price, synthesized two batteries to provide power to the Mega-Bathroom After getting all this done, just needed to wait for a while, he could wash a hot bath. Jason Williams walked out of the Mega-Bathroom. He still had a lot of Blueprints in his hand now. Taking advantage of the fact that there were still a lot of Escape Coins, he decided to synthesize all the Blueprints. First of all, the 1-star Vehicle Front Bumper Blueprint, 100 Escape Coins. 1-star Tire Blueprint, 100 Escape Coins. 0-star Headlight Blueprint, 20 Escape Coins. After these Blueprints were synthesized, they were all automatically installed on the RV. Therefore, the RV also had some changes. Especially the RV head. If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. From the outside, it looked like a layer of steel plate was welded, giving the RV some extra defense. Currently, the RV''s vehicle equipment had a 2-star Mega-Bathroom, a 1-star Vehicle Front Bumper and tires, and a 0-star headlight. Jason Williams''s 0-star RV wanted to upgrade to a 1-star RV, he had to install at least 5 0-star vehicle equipment. After upgrading to a 1-star RV, the RV would unlock an ability. And the only 0-star Headlight Blueprint, was still obtained by Jason Williams himself opening a treasure chest. Obviously, 0-star Blueprints were not without, but no one sold them to Jason Williams. After all, the synthesis price of 0-star Blueprints was cheap, only needing 10 to 20 Escape Coins. People who get the Blueprints keep them to synthesize themselves, who would sell them to Jason Williams? But Jason Williams was not discouraged. Now it was the first day of the Escape World ah. He didn''t believe that anyone in the world''s billions of people could develop better than him. In a good mood, Jason Williams continued to synthesize some daily necessities Blueprints. First of all, the Sofa Blueprint. After Jason Williams synthesized it, finally made the inside of the RV look not empty. Then synthesized a few planting pots, etc., in the future found high-yield seeds can have a place to plant. As for sanitary napkins, toilet paper, lighters, wooden buckets, and iron pots, they were also synthesized some, to increase the diversity of items. Especially sanitary napkins and toilet paper, were commonly used items. In addition to this, Jason Williams also had the last Blueprint, a 1-star Combat Boots Blueprint. [Combat Boots] 1-star equipment: Can increase speed attribute after wearing. Manufacturing required: 100 Escape Coins. Jason Williams, according to his shoe size, made a pair of Combat Boots. This was his first star-level equipment, whose value far exceeded the Wooden Spear. The advantage of star-level equipment was that it could increase the wearer''s attributes. Jason Williams immediately put on the combat boots, and obviously felt that his speed had been improved. Open the attributes to view. Name: Jason Williams Strength: E-Rank Speed: E+ Rank (D-) Constitution: E-Rank Spirit: E-Rank Skills: None Escape Coins: 4452 Overall Evaluation: E+ Rank. Seeing the speed attribute became D-Rank because of wearing 1-star combat boots, Jason Williams was very satisfied. Then Jason Williams asked Chloe, Sophie, Lily Young, and Tiffany Wilson for their shoe sizes. Generously synthesized a pair of combat boots for each of them. The four women were very happy after receiving the combat boots. Especially the three women, Lily Young, and Sophie, who didn''t get on the RV, had even more confidence in their minds to become Jason Williams''s women. After synthesizing all the Blueprints, Jason Williams still had more than four thousand four hundred Escape Coins in his hand. Can''t spend it all, can''t spend it at all. Jason Williams even wanted to spend 2000 Escape Coins to synthesize a big bathroom. Then there would be two large water collectors and solar charging panels. But think about it and forget it. A large bathroom''s water and electricity was already enough, no need to spend more Escape Coins. Otherwise, this would be retaliatory consumption. Jason Williams lay on the sofa, enjoying a rare leisure. In a good mood, Jason Williams opened the chat channel and constantly searched in the list of people. Jason Williams wanted to try to find a Beautiful virgin. There were more than eight thousand people in the current channel. Looking for them one by one was very difficult. Jason Williams could find Lily Young before, but also according to the surname of the first letter to find. In thousands of people, find a beauty is not difficult, but how to distinguish who is the virgin from the beauty, but is a big problem. Therefore Jason Williams had to give up this troublesome project. Can only go offline to the bus to find a Beautiful virgin. The sky gradually darkened. Chloe was also not selling Wooden Spears, but was curious to experience the speed boost brought by the combat boots. After putting on the combat boots, her speed directly increased to E+ Rank. Simply loved this one-star equipment. "Eh, Hubby, when did an extra door appear in the vehicle?" Chloe looked at the Mega-Bathroom door with some doubt. The RV added a sofa, she could understand was synthesized with Blueprints. But what was the use of Jason Williams synthesizing a door? Was it more convenient to get out of the RV? Jason Williams leaned back on the sofa and laughed: "You open it and you''ll know." Chloe curiously went to open the Mega-Bathroom door, then kept exclaiming in agreement. Simply was too magical. A Mega-Bathroom was actually built in the RV. Then can she take a bath tonight? Chloe jumped out of the bathroom: "Hubby, I''m going to take a shower first, you can''t take it from me." Jason Williams smiled and agreed, in fact, was reducing Chloe''s guard. He also wanted to think how to get More Favor Points. 20 - Catastrophic winds Chloe had no idea what Jason Williams was thinking. She was still sharing the news that a bathroom had been built in the RV with Sophie. Little did she know, Jason Williams was already thinking about how to get More Favor Points from her. Obviously, collecting vehicle fare wasn''t going to work. Making Chloe cry meant Jason Williams had to find a way to appease her. What he wanted was Favor Points, not to vent his desires. Grumble... Jason Williams was thinking about taking a shower when he felt a little hungry. It was time to eat dinner. Jason Williams found five packets of instant noodles from the pile of food Chloe had exchanged. Using the hot water from the water heater to cook the noodles, and then adding a sausage and a braised egg to each packet, it was simply extravagant. Jason Williams was too wealthy now. This little bit of food was a drop in the bucket for him. Then he gave each of the women a packet of instant noodles, and kept one for himself. "Jason Williams bro, what should I do with the wolf carcass here?" After receiving the instant noodles, Lily Young immediately sent a message asking Jason Williams. She wanted to rely on the wolf meat to get everyone on the bus to be her henchmen. But there was no way to deal with the wolf carcass. Couldn''t let everyone eat it raw, right? Who could bring themselves to do it? This matter wasn''t difficult for Jason Williams. Jason Williams directly sent Lily Young an iron pot, a lighter, a Wooden Spear, and a Wooden Bucket of bathroom water. These things could be used to cut the wolf meat with the stone blade on the Wooden Spear, and then go to the Wasteland to find some dead branches and leaves to burn, and at least could simply stew a pot of wolf meat. It''s just that the taste was not very good, difficult to swallow. But this had nothing to do with Jason Williams, if you don''t eat, then just wait to starve to death. On the other side, Sophie, after receiving Jason Williams''s instant noodles, also encountered trouble. There were quite a few people on her bus who were hungry, and there were also quite a few men who coveted her beauty. After Sophie took out the instant noodles, she was immediately targeted by everyone. And Jason Williams gave Sophie instructions, to beat everyone on the bus into submission. After Sophie put on 1-star combat boots, her speed and strength had reached E+ level. With Lily Young''s previous experience, Jason Williams was not worried about Sophie''s safety. When Sophie violently subdued everyone, Jason Williams also sent her a wolf carcass and iron pot and other items. Jason Williams gave Sophie a task. To subdue the people on the bus, and then command them to lure monsters steal treasure chests. In this way, Jason Williams had two buses to search for resources for him. Each bus could find seven to ten treasure chests a day. Jason Williams didn''t care about ordinary resources, but Jason Williams needed various Blueprints, special items. This way of controlling the bus, was also Lily Young to Jason Williams opened up ideas. Back in reality, Jason Williams and Chloe were sitting on the sofa eating instant noodles. After Chloe finished eating the instant noodles, she immediately wanted to take a shower. The Mega-Bathroom had long collected enough water. Jason Williams laughed, suddenly carried the confused Chloe, and took her to the Mega-Bathroom. "Ah! Hubby what are you doing? Quick put me down... wait..." This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it Bang! With a bathroom door closing sound, no one knew what happened inside. Chloe''s Favor Points +6 Chloe''s Favor Points +6 An hour later... Jason Williams walked out of the bathroom with a blushing Chloe in his arms. What made Chloe breathe a sigh of relief was that Jason Williams did not collect her vehicle fare, the two were just cultivating feelings. Tonight was the first day of the Escape World, so there would be no monster attacks at night. Very safe. No one needed to keep watch at night either. Jason Williams lay on the bed, resting with Chloe in his arms. In the dim RV, both of them were a little sleepless, after all, the day''s experience was too rich. Now there was no mobile phone to pass the boredom, the two could only look at the chat channel. The evening chat channel was even more lively. Everyone chatted with each other, talking about the situation they encountered, and their views on the Escape World. There were also many people in the channel who were funny and telling jokes. Chloe, lying in Jason Williams''s arms, looked at the chat channel with red eyes. "What''s wrong?" Jason Williams also noticed that Chloe''s mood was wrong. Chloe gently kissed Jason Williams: "Hubby, can we still go back to the original world?" Jason Williams didn''t know how to answer this question for a while. He was a reborn, clear about the situation in the Escape World. After escaping one world, he would go to the next world, as if endless. "I don''t know, but I will protect you, we will live together, live to the end." Chloe''s Favor Points +6 "Mm." Chloe was touched in her heart, and hugged Jason Williams even more. Jason Williams''s words gave her a lot of security. After the two hugged for a while, Chloe was actually restless. Like a curious baby, touching here, touching there. Jason Williams was speechless, you are not afraid to play too far? Chloe was of course not afraid now. She was not charged a vehicle fare in the bathroom, so naturally she would not be charged a vehicle fare now. She was now in the novice protection period, how could she be afraid? Jason Williams was helpless about this, and could only let Chloe. The two cultivated feelings at night, chatting in each other''s arms, watching the chat channel everyone talking about dirty jokes, one night did nothing, and then did not know when they fell asleep. Chloe''s Favor Points +6 The next day. Just as the sky was dawning, a strong wind began to blow in the Wasteland, and a lot of sand was blown up. Whoosh ~ Whoosh ~ Whoosh ~ "Is it windy?" Chloe, groggy from Jason Williams''s arms to climb up, subconsciously wiped the mouth saliva. Did not know why, listening to the wind outside, she had a sense of unease. And after a night the temperature dropped significantly, only the quilt was still warm. Jason Williams was also awakened by the wind, but he did not care, but continued to put Chloe back in his arms. "Do not care, just blowing a strong wind only, let''s sleep for a while." "Mm." Chloe lay in Jason Williams''s arms, wrapped in a quilt, only then felt much more at ease. Outside the strong wind was still blowing. Many people also noticed this anomaly, but did not care. Although the wind was a bit strong, but it did not affect anything. Jason Williams and Chloe lying in the quilt, feet enough to sleep two hours. Chloe blushed and pinched Jason Williams''s arm, this hand was too restless. "Hubby, when are we getting up, are you not going to find Sophie on the bus today?" Jason Williams rubbed the pinched arm: "We have to wait for the system to distribute gasoline before we can act, we can''t even drive, how to find people?" "Oh." The two had to lie in bed and wait. Chloe was a little bored, opened the system to read the chat channel. Inside, many people were discussing the strong wind problem. There are also people complaining about how the system did not distribute gasoline, they are waiting to search for resources. Many people yesterday bought Wooden Spears from Chloe, are waiting to stab Goblins show off today. [Ding, Congratulations to everyone for living through the first day, in addition to the bus each transport will be based on the number of people in the car, rewarding the vehicle owners gasoline and Escape Coins. ] [Increase the regional Escape World difficulty, disaster - wind. ] [Today the wind level 6 - strong wind, after every day will increase once the wind level. ] 21 - Get on the bus [Settlement: 2 people inside the vehicle. Awarded 200 units of gasoline, 2 Escape Coins.] Jason Williams and Chloe got out of bed leisurely after receiving the system notification. The daily settlement reward is the reason why drivers want to take in more followers. After all, for every person added to the vehicle, they would receive an additional 100 units of gasoline every day. One hundred units of gasoline could be used to search for many treasure chests. So, taking in followers is a profitable deal for the drivers. In addition to that, the system would also reward Escape Coins based on the strength of the people inside the vehicle: 1 Escape Coin for E-Rank strength every day, 10 for D-Rank, 100 for C-Rank, and so on. Right now, Jason Williams and Chloe were only E-Rank, which is why they were awarded 2 Escape Coins. Of course, Jason Williams and Chloe did not care about a few Escape Coins. Still, it can be considered a way to encourage drivers to take in followers, especially followers with good strength, as many drivers would fight over them. In the future, followers would become a resource in the eyes of the drivers. Many drivers would have disputes over competing for followers, with strong followers and pretty women being the most popular. What Jason Williams was doing now was taking advantage of the fact that other drivers did not know how to recruit people at the bus to find as many pretty virgins as possible. Virgins were already rare, pretty virgins were national treasure-level existences. In his previous life, David Lee used all kinds of methods to find virgins. That showed how difficult it was to find pretty virgins. Jason Williams realized this as well. So, the main purpose of going to the bus today was to find pretty virgins. Moreover, Jason Williams did not have to worry about the RV''s passenger limit. In fact, every transportation vehicle had a fixed passenger limit. For example, an ordinary car, including the driver, could only take in a maximum of 5 people. Or a van like David Lee''s could take 7 people. Even if the internal space of the vehicle was modified and expanded, it could not change the passenger limit. Only Jason Williams''s S-Rank RV had no passenger limit. This was also something that Jason Williams found incredible. In his previous life, people circulated rumors that S-Rank was a god-level. After getting the RV, Jason Williams understood the power of S-Rank. Jason Williams and Chloe did a quick wash in the bathroom, ate a piece of bread and started their action. "Hubby, I''m driving off then." Chloe sat on the driver''s seat of the RV and said goodbye to Jason Williams. Jason Williams stood on the highway, holding a Wooden Spear, and waved his hand to Chloe, signaling her to leave. Chloe nodded, drove the RV off, gradually disappearing from Jason Williams''s sight. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. The strong wind blew across the Wasteland, stirring up a lot of dust. Jason Williams squinted his eyes, preventing the sand from blowing into his eyes. The wind level today was still acceptable. By the fifth or sixth day, it would be difficult for people to move around outside, and by the seventh day, it would be a disaster that would bring despair. Cars could easily be blown into the sky, and on the seventh day, everyone could only sit in the car and escape. Only those who survived the seventh night would appear in the next Escape World. Jason Williams took out a mask from his pocket and put it on his face, quickly transforming into the appearance of a strange man. This was a disguise mask that Jason Williams had Chloe buy yesterday. It could hide Jason Williams''s identity. As for who was on the mask, Jason Williams did not know. Every disguise mask only had one face and could not be changed arbitrarily. Unauthorized content usage: if you discover this narrative on Amazon, report the violation. Jason Williams sat cross-legged on the highway and waited for the bus to appear. He still needed to wait for some time. Jason Williams remembered that he got More Favor Points from Chloe yesterday. Now was the perfect time to strengthen his attributes. He collected 24 Favor Points last night, plus the original 1 Favor Point, Jason Williams now had 25 Favor Points. Jason Williams directly exchanged for twelve Attribute Orbs and strengthened his Strength and Constitution to E+ Rank. He saved the remaining 13 Favor Points for future needs. Jason Williams checked his personal attributes: Name: Jason Williams Strength: E+ Rank Speed: E+ Rank (D-) Constitution: E+ Rank Spirit: E-Rank Skills: None Escape Coins: 4452 Overall Evaluation: E+ Rank "Not bad, not bad." After nodding his head in satisfaction, Jason Williams waited for the bus in the strong wind. About half an hour later, Jason Williams saw a bus slowly appearing. "It''s finally here..." Jason Williams picked up his Wooden Spear and stood up, waiting for the bus to approach. After being blown by the wind and sand for half an hour, Jason Williams had long felt uncomfortable. Now he could finally go on the bus to avoid the wind. The bus slowly stopped in front of Jason Williams. The door automatically opened, as if welcoming Jason Williams to board the vehicle. Jason Williams, carrying a Wooden Spear, walked onto the bus. A middle-aged man in his forties immediately greeted Jason Williams. "Young man, hello." "I am the leader of this bus, Mark Johnson. You can call me Uncle Johnson. Welcome to our bus. We are all family now." Mark Johnson enthusiastically welcomed Jason Williams, but his eyes were constantly lingering on Jason Williams''s Wooden Spear. Jason Williams did not speak, but scanned every person on the bus, especially the women. Jason Williams would stop on each woman for two or three seconds. Seeing Jason Williams ignore him, Mark Johnson''s expression instantly darkened. He knew Jason Williams was a troublemaker. "Don''t block the way." Jason Williams pushed Mark Johnson away with one hand and walked toward the inside of the bus. Mark Johnson was pushed to the point where he staggered and almost fell. "Sigh, this young man really has no manners..." Mark Johnson hurriedly stabilized his body. At this time, he himself did not notice Jason Williams''s amazing strength. Mark Johnson thought it was because he did not stand firmly that he was almost pushed down. "Good kid, as long as you get on this bus, I''ll have plenty of ways to deal with you." Mark Johnson thought to himself. Mark Johnson was originally a high-level manager in a company and had considerable leadership skills. From the moment he descended into the Escape World, Mark Johnson organized everyone to unite through the chat channel. Therefore, he had some prestige in the chat channel. After getting on the bus, Mark Johnson led the bus with his prestige and leadership skills. So, in Mark Johnson''s opinion, Jason Williams got on the bus and got onto his territory. After Jason Williams got on the bus, the bus slowly started to move. Many people''s eyes were focused on Jason Williams. There were curiosity, vigilance, and hostility in their eyes. Especially when they saw the Wooden Spear in Jason Williams''s hand, many people showed a greedy and envious look. Jason Williams did not care at all. Jason Williams walked to a woman with disheveled hair, and in everyone''s shocked and puzzled eyes, lifted her hair. "What are you doing!" The woman slapped Jason Williams''s hand away. Jason Williams did not care. This woman was too ordinary, not even as good as Sarah Jones. She was not qualified to get on the RV. Looking around at the dozen or so women on the bus, Jason Williams did not have a single one that he liked. Mark Johnson could not stand it anymore. After getting on the bus, you did not respect me, and you dared to flirt with the women on the bus. You simply did not put him, the leader, in your eyes. "Punk, after getting on the bus, you flirt with the women on the bus, are you looking down on all of us?" "I''ll give you a chance, give me the Wooden Spear in your hand, and I''ll let this matter go." "Otherwise... everyone won''t forgive you." 22 - Blueprints After Mark Johnson finished his threatening words, all the men and women on the bus stood up. This was something that they had discussed beforehand, to put pressure on Jason Williams who just got on the bus. With more than twenty people on the bus ganging up on one person, they wanted to see if he would be afraid . Two of the men even took out Wooden Spears, posing a great threat. Jason Williams looked and thought, "Well, aren''t these the customers who bought my Wooden Spears?" Jason Williams was right. These two Wooden Spears were exchanged with Chloe by Mark Johnson using all of his supplies yesterday, just to buy these two broken Wooden Spears. Most of the people on the bus were hungry for an entire day because of this, with only Mark Johnson and a few of the men having eaten a little food. This was actually Mark Johnson''s way of controlling the people on the bus. If everyone ate, who would listen to him? Now most people on the bus were hungry, waiting for Mark Johnson to lead them to fight for treasure chests and get food. However, what they didn''t expect was that treasure chests did not appear today, but Jason Williams got on the bus first. But it wasn''t like they didn''t gain anything; at least Jason Williams had a Wooden Spear in his hand. Jason Williams looked at Mark Johnson. At this time, Mark Johnson had a smug look of someone who got what he wanted. In Mark Johnson''s opinion, Jason Williams was still too young and didn''t know how to endure. "Kid, you see it now, as long as I give the order, the people on the bus will take you down immediately." "Be sensible and hand over the Wooden Spear in your hand. From now on, we are all family." Seeing Mark Johnson acting like he was trying to manipulate him, Jason Williams wanted to tease him a bit. So Jason Williams put on a fearless look and shouted, "The Wooden Spear is in my hand, come and snatch it if you want it!" After saying that, Jason Williams took a step back subconsciously. This small movement was immediately noticed by Mark Johnson. Mark Johnson sneered and thought that Jason Williams was still too green. No matter how fearless Jason Williams pretended to be, he still revealed his fear and took a small step back. "Everyone, get him and snatch his Wooden Spear!" Mark Johnson waved his hand and ordered everyone to take down Jason Williams. At the same time, to increase everyone''s determination, Mark Johnson promised a benefit: "Whoever snatches the Wooden Spear first will own it!" As soon as he said that, the eyes of all the men on the bus lit up, and they immediately rushed towards Jason Williams. A Wooden Spear was worth 20 Escape Coins, who wouldn''t want it? "This Wooden Spear is mine!" A man suddenly grabbed at Jason Williams''s Wooden Spear, but Jason Williams directly threw the Wooden Spear on the ground, which stunned everyone. The Wooden Spear was about two meters long, making it impossible to swing and use inside the bus. So Jason Williams directly used his fists and feet. Bang! Jason Williams kicked out, instantly knocking down four or five people. The bus became chaotic, with people rushing towards Jason Williams from all directions. Jason Williams was not polite and used a series of punches and kicks. Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang "Ah~" "Help! Monster!" After a moment, the entire bus, except for some women hiding in the corners, was filled with people lying on the ground in pain, including Mark Johnson. Jason Williams kicked Mark Johnson and then squatted down and asked softly, "Tell me, give me a reason not to kill you." Mark Johnson lay on the ground with a look of fear. He never thought that he would fall into such a state. He was the general manager of a company with millions of dollars, but now he had to beg for mercy at the feet of a young man. "You... you... how can you be so strong?" Jason Williams smiled, "It''s simple, you just need to absorb a few Attribute Orbs." "I found blueprints when I opened a treasure chest and then exchanged the blueprints for Attribute Orbs on the channel to strengthen myself." Blueprints for Attribute Orbs? Using blueprints to exchange for Attribute Orbs could make you this strong? Had he known that, he would have exchanged them too. "Young man, we were wrong. We shouldn''t have snatched your Wooden Spear, please let us go." Mark Johnson begged for mercy while lying on the ground. Jason Williams shook his head: "Don''t be ridiculous, an apology won''t save your life." Then Jason Williams picked up the Wooden Spear on the ground, preparing to kill Mark Johnson. Mark Johnson was so scared that he was dumbfounded and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Don''t kill me, young man, I have money, I can give you money!" "Don''t be silly, Uncle, money is useless. Strength is the most important thing. Do you have any last words? I''m going to do it..." Jason Williams slowly raised the Wooden Spear. Mark Johnson hurriedly shouted, "I have blueprints, don''t kill me!" Jason Williams''s mouth twitched, not expecting this man to actually have a stash. No wonder he was reluctant to hand over the blueprints until he was about to die. Jason Williams put away the blueprints and smiled at Mark Johnson. "Why did you do this? If you used this blueprint to exchange for Attribute Orbs yesterday, you would have become a strong person like me." "Why sell your life for a blueprint today?" After Jason Williams finished speaking, Mark Johnson was full of regret. He did not expect the effect of Attribute Orbs to be so powerful. Had he known that, he would have exchanged them. Jason Williams grabbed his Wooden Spear and pressed the bus''s stop bell: "For the sake of the blueprint, I''ll spare your lives today. I''m leaving." Mark Johnson hurriedly got up and asked Jason Williams, "Kid, I admit defeat today. Can you tell me your name?" My name? Jason Williams could tell that Mark Johnson was holding a grudge and wanted to find a chance to retaliate in the future. "I''m David Lee. Come and find me for revenge anytime, hahaha..." The bus door opened, and Jason Williams walked off the bus in a dashing manner. Everyone looked at Jason Williams''s back and couldn''t help but admire him. Was this the realization of a strong person? Not afraid of revenge, open and honest. Mark Johnson clenched his fists. He remembered the name David Lee. He had never suffered such a big loss in his life, and he would definitely take revenge in the future. It was nothing more than exchanging blueprints for Attribute Orbs, he would exchange them in the future too. Sooner or later, he, Mark Johnson, would step on David Lee. Mark Johnson obviously did not know that he had already been tricked by Jason Williams and was still fantasizing about himself becoming a strong person one day. After Jason Williams got off the bus, the bus slowly drove away, and Jason Williams continued to stand on the road and wait for the next bus. At this time, Chloe only needed to park the RV on the road for the next bus to pick him up. Conversely, if Chloe continued to drive the RV, what appeared would not be a bus, but the RV driven by Chloe. Jason Williams still needed to wait another half an hour on the road. This feeling of strong winds blowing up sand from time to time and hitting his face was very uncomfortable for Jason Williams, but in order to add pretty virgins to the RV, Jason Williams had to endure these sins. 23 - Jenna&Ellie Over the next while, Jason Williams boarded three more buses in the same repetitive process, only getting a towel blueprint and some other sundries. The same thing that happened on Mark Johnson''s bus happened again. Jason Williams, using David Lee''s name, beat everyone on the bus. Then he revealed that the reason why he was so strong was that he traded blueprints for Attribute Orbs. Everyone on the bus, just like Mark Johnson, was tricked. He believed that in the future, as long as the people on these buses found blueprints, they would contact Jason Williams to exchange for Attribute Orbs as soon as possible. What made Jason Williams regret was... After boarding four buses in a row, he couldn''t find any pretty virgins. Jason Williams could only helplessly go on to the next bus. On a certain bus. Grumble... The sound of a hungry stomach rumbled. "Ellie..." A gentle and pure girl looked at her younger sister beside her, with a worried expression. She and her sister hadn''t eaten any food for more than a day. If things went on like this, both sisters would starve to death on the bus. The younger sister beside the girl was named Ellie. She had golden pigtails and big azure eyes, and she wore denim shorts, revealing a pair of slender and beautiful jade legs. "I''m fine, Sister." Ellie shook her head and comforted her. The gentle older sister beside Ellie was named Jenna, and like Ellie, she had big azure eyes, but she had long brown hair. Both sisters were half-Chinese, half-French beauties, and they were very pretty. Jenna''s eyes filled with tears, and she seemed to have made some kind of decision. Then Jenna looked at the middle-aged man sitting not far away. "Father..." "Mmm..." The middle-aged man, Akizuki Takashi, was also dizzy from hunger and could only weakly hum. Since the three father and daughters had descended into the same area, Akizuki Takashi had naturally become the only support for the two girls. So Akizuki Takashi took his two adopted daughters onto the bus. But Akizuki Takashi was too cowardly to participate in luring monsters to steal treasure chests, which led to the three father and daughters not eating any food for more than a day. Jenna gritted her teeth and clenched her small fists, as if she had made some kind of decision. "Father... go and exchange for some food. I''m willing to pay any price." Hearing Jenna''s words, Ellie widened her eyes in shock, while Akizuki Takashi''s face darkened. They both knew what Jenna''s words meant. Jenna was going to use her body to exchange for food. Ellie woke up from her shock and hurriedly grabbed her sister''s hand: "No, Sister." "They are not good people. Don''t sell your body for a little food." Jenna comforted her sister and told her not to worry. Although Jenna looked weak on the outside, she was very strong on the inside. She would rather lose her virginity than let her sister starve to death on the bus. The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. Akizuki Takashi, who was on the side, had a gloomy face and did not speak. He didn''t hate himself for being unable to get food. Instead, he thought of these two pretty daughters as his own. Akizuki Takashi thought that exchanging for a little food was not worth it. Grumble... A feeling of weakness from hunger made Akizuki Takashi look painful. The feeling of hunger was too uncomfortable. Akizuki Takashi knew that even if he was unwilling, he had to exchange for food. After all, he couldn''t let himself starve to death. As for which daughter to sell, Akizuki Takashi hesitated a bit. Jenna was very obedient and listened to him, her father. On the other hand, Ellie was very proud and had never looked at him, her father, in the eye. The two sisters had different looks. Akizuki Takashi wanted to sell the disobedient Ellie in his heart, but after thinking about it, he decided to sell Jenna. Jenna was obedient and easy to control. As long as Ellie was fine, Jenna could sacrifice anything. Thinking of this, Akizuki Takashi got up and looked at Jenna: "Don''t worry, Jenna, I''ll go exchange for food. You prepare yourself first." "Ah! You big bastard, don''t go!" Ellie stood up angrily and shouted. She had long seen that this stepfather was not a good thing. After getting on the bus, this stepfather was as useless as trash. He was clearly a man, but he hid on the bus with a group of women and never got out of the bus to look for food. Now, in order not to starve to death, he was actually going to sell his sister''s body for food. Akizuki Takashi directly ignored Ellie and walked towards a burly bald man in front of him. Ellie was so anxious that she cried. She clenched her small fists and shouted at Akizuki Takashi, calling him trash. Everyone on the bus was confused and curiously looked at what this father and daughter were going to do. Jenna held back her tears and kept comforting her sister, saying that she was fine. From this, it could be seen how strong Jenna was inside. At this time, Akizuki Takashi walked up to the bald man. "Monty, I want to discuss something with you." The bald man who was called Monty was named Monty. He was a prisoner serving a life sentence in prison. He originally thought that he would never have a chance to get out of prison in his life, but he did not expect that he would appear in the Escape World. He liked this world too much. This place was more suitable for him to survive than prison. As long as he had the strength, he could do whatever he wanted. Now this bus was about to be ruled by Monty. In fact, Monty was able to rule this bus so quickly thanks to Jason Williams. Monty used all of his resources yesterday to exchange for a Wooden Spear from Chloe. Today, with the Wooden Spear, he killed a Gray Wolf at the cost of losing two of his underlings. After he walked onto the bus with the wolf carcass, many men immediately submitted to him. Now Monty had eight underlings, basically ruling this bus. Monty had long noticed Ellie and Jenna. He had already planned in his heart whether he could indulge himself a bit. He didn''t expect that the father of the two girls, Akizuki Takashi, would come to him first. "What do you want to talk about?" Monty asked with a smile. Akizuki Takashi immediately bowed and squatted next to Monty, whispering a few words in his ear. Monty''s eyes lit up after hearing it. It was like someone sending him a pillow when he wanted to sleep. Looking at the underlings around him who were staring at him eagerly, Monty''s heart moved. This was a good opportunity to win people''s hearts. "Akizuki Takashi, you should know how precious food is now." "I can give you a portion of food, but you must let my brothers play with your daughter." The underlings around Monty were excited after hearing this. What did Monty just say? He was going to take them to play with Akizuki Takashi''s daughter? Everyone had seen the beauty of Ellie and Jenna. It was just that everyone had not yet come out of the constraints of law and morality, so no one had messed around yet. But Monty''s words aroused the darkness in their hearts. In this Escape World, they might suddenly die someday. If they could have fun now, it would be worth it even if they died in the future. Akizuki Takashi was silent. He wasn''t heartbroken for Jenna; he was considering whether he could get some benefits from it. 24 - Saving the beauty "Hahaha..." Monty laughed loudly and waved his hand to his underlings, "Brothers, let''s go, today your big brother will let you have some fun." "Long live the big brother!" "The big brother is benevolent. We really didn''t follow the wrong big brother." The underlings cheered continuously, and their loyalty to Monty greatly increased. All the women on the bus turned pale with fright and hid in the corners. There were also a few men who had not become Monty''s underlings who remained silent. They were weak and had no support, so even if they had some sense of justice in their hearts, they didn''t dare to speak up to stop them at this time. Monty led a group of men towards Jenna. Jenna was frightened, her small face was pale, and her whole body was trembling. She never thought that her father would find so many people for her. She''ll be toyed to death. "Ah!" Ellie screamed in fright, but she opened her arms and stood in front of her sister like a little hen. "What are you going to do? Get out of here!" Monty and a group of underlings showed obscene smirks. Akizuki Takashi''s two daughters were really pure. Not only were they good-looking, but they were also half-blooded beauties. When Monty was about to reach out to grab Ellie, Akizuki Takashi hurriedly popped out and pulled Ellie away. "Monty, we are only selling the older sister, the younger sister is not for sale for the time being." Monty looked at Ellie and then looked at Jenna, who was frightened on the seat. Doesn''t matter. Playing them one by one was also not bad. The older sister today, the younger sister tomorrow. "I''ll go first, you wait a moment." Monty said to his underlings. The underlings immediately smiled and complimented: "Of course, big brother, you go first." "Hahaha..." The men laughed. These laughter sounded like demons in Ellie and Jenna''s ears. Jenna''s pupils trembled. She wanted to open her mouth and shout for help, but her neck seemed to be strangled, and she couldn''t make any sound. She was so scared that she couldn''t speak. Ellie struggled desperately, crying and trying to save her sister, but she had been forcibly pulled out of the scene by Akizuki Takashi. The father and daughter could only see the backs of a group of men now. Screech-- At this time, the bus that was driving suddenly stopped. Everyone was stunned. Did they encounter a treasure chest again? Suddenly, the bus door opened, and Jason Williams, carrying a Wooden Spear and dusting off the dust on his body, walked onto the bus. He had been waiting on the highway for an afternoon, and he was covered with dust and his clothes were dirty. "Eh, big brother... we didn''t encounter a treasure chest. Someone got on the bus." "It should be someone getting off another vehicle, as mentioned in the chat channel." Monty nodded after hearing this and cursed, "Damn it, disturbing my pleasure." Then Monty began to excitedly take off his clothes. He had been holding back in prison for many years, and he had to vent enough today. After all, good goods were hard to come by. Ellie was held down by Akizuki Takashi, crying in despair. What could she do to save her sister? At this time, the bus slowly started to move. Ellie looked at Jason Williams, who had just gotten on the bus and was carrying a Wooden Spear. Wooden Spear... Monty became the boss on the bus after getting the Wooden Spear. This person has a Wooden Spear and will definitely be able to save her sister. At this moment, Ellie seemed to have found hope. Taking advantage of Akizuki Takashi''s inattention, she kicked him between his legs. Ellie used all her strength in this kick. All the anger from this stepfather for selling her sister was concentrated in this kick. The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. Bang! A muffled sound. "Ah!" Akizuki Takashi''s pig-like scream resounded throughout the entire bus. This scream even frightened Monty, almost losing his erection. "Damn, what are you screaming for, are you looking for death!?" Jenna, who was frightened, was also awakened by this loud scream. She hurriedly covered her clothes in horror and shouted not to come over. On the other side, Ellie ignored Akizuki Takashi, who was lying on the ground screaming, and hurriedly ran to Jason Williams. Under Jason Williams''s shocked gaze, she knelt directly in front of Jason Williams and begged while crying: "Please, save my sister. I''m willing to be your slave." Jason Williams hadn''t understood what was going on yet when he heard Jenna''s scream of "don''t come over." Crap, forced rape? In an instant, Jason Williams guessed what this group of people on the bus was doing. He had seen this scene a lot in his previous life. Looking down at the crying blonde girl kneeling on the ground A half-blooded beauty? She was asking him to save her sister... Not good! Jason Williams was shocked and directly threw the Wooden Spear to Ellie, then rushed towards the crowd. Bang! "Ah!" The crowd was directly kicked down by Jason Williams. The scene was chaotic. At this time, Monty had already taken off his clothes and was starting to strip Jenna. He never thought that Jason Williams would suddenly appear. Jason Williams punched and kicked in the crowd, with not a trace of mercy. With his E+ Rank strength, one punch could leave an ordinary man half dead. After a moment, all of Monty''s underlings were lying on the ground, leaving only the naked Monty. Monty was scared stiff. And Jenna, like a little white rabbit, huddled in the corner and shed tears. Looking at Jason Williams, who had come to save her like a Prince Charming, a different kind of emotion arose in her heart. Jason Williams grabbed Monty''s testicle-like head with one hand and lifted it directly. Everyone present was dumbfounded. Who was this person? He was too strong. Ellie showed a surprised look and hurriedly wiped the tears from her cheeks, then ran to find her sister. After seeing that her sister was safe and her clothes were still on her, Ellie breathed a sigh of relief. "Sister..." "Ellie..." The two sisters hugged each other. They had really gone through hell. Jason Williams lifted Monty''s bald head with one hand, while looking at the two sisters, Ellie and Jenna. After seeing these two girls, Jason Williams knew without asking that they must be virgins. At the same time, they were top-notch half-blooded beauties. He made a profit. He even made two at once. Jason Williams couldn''t help but feel surprised in his heart. It was a good thing that he got on this bus. Otherwise, these two sisters would have been ruined by this group of people. Thinking of this, Jason Williams was angry. He punched Monty''s bald head with all his strength. Bang, bang!!! Monty''s nose and mouth were bleeding, and two obvious fist prints were indented on his bald head. Jason Williams directly killed Monty with two punches. Then Jason Williams didn''t let go of Monty''s group of underlings and kicked them all to death. The bus was silent. Even Akizuki Takashi covered his legs and didn''t dare to make a sound, for fear of offending this killing god. Afterward, Jason Williams found a blueprint and two small bags of seeds from the clothes that Monty had taken off. He opened the blueprint to view the information: [Vehicle Fuel Tank]: 0-star vehicle equipment, can hold 200 units of gasoline. Number of times the blueprint can be manufactured: 3 Manufacturing required: 10 Escape Coins. Seeing this blueprint, Jason Williams''s eyes lit up. His RV was just short of four 0-star vehicle blueprints to upgrade. He didn''t expect to find one here. Afterward, Jason Williams checked the remaining two bags of seeds. He was a reborn person and knew very well that the seeds in the Escape World were different from the seeds in the original world. They were all improved super high-yield seeds. [High-Yield Rice Seeds] * 10 [High-Yield Wheat Seeds] * 10 Ten grains each of rice and wheat seeds!? Jason Williams was overjoyed. With these twenty seeds, he wouldn''t have to worry about rice and flour in the future. In his previous life, Jason Williams had heard that after these Escape World rice and wheat seeds matured, the daily yield was one pound. In other words, after these twenty seeds matured, Jason Williams would harvest ten pounds of rice and ten pounds of flour every day. "Not bad, not bad, I didn''t expect that this bald head had so many good things on him. He must have opened a Bronze Chest." 25 - Two Girls Saved While Jason Williams was checking the blueprints and seeds, Ellie pulled her sister Jenna and cautiously approached Jason Williams. As for why they were being cautious, it was because the ground was covered with the corpses that Jason Williams had killed. "Th... thank you for saving me and my sister. My name is Ellie, she is my sister Jenna... Can we follow you in the future?" Ellie mustered up her courage and asked what was on her mind. Jenna, who was on the side, didn''t say anything to object, but instead, she observed Jason Williams with a shy red face. In her eyes, Jason Williams was the Prince Charming who had rescued her from a group of bad guys. Jenna naturally wanted to stay by Jason Williams''s side. Ellie seemed afraid that Jason Williams would not take in herself and her sister, and she hurriedly said, "My sister can cook, and she cooks really delicious food." "And I can also help you wash clothes..." Wash clothes? Jason Williams was amused by Ellie''s words. She must have noticed that his body was covered with dust, so she said that. So Jason Williams stroked his chin and frowned, "It''s still useful that your sister can cook, but you only know how to wash clothes. Aren''t you too useless?" Ellie''s face changed drastically after hearing this, and she hurriedly explained anxiously: "I can not only wash clothes, but also wash pants and socks..." Speaking of the end, Ellie''s own voice became smaller. It seemed like she was really too useless. On the side, Jenna noticed that the corners of Jason Williams''s mouth and eyes were twitching slightly, which was obviously suppressing a smile. So she didn''t speak either, quietly watching Jason Williams tease her sister. At this time, Ellie was so anxious that she was sweating. What if Jason Williams only took in her sister but not her? She didn''t want to continue following that good-for-nothing stepfather in the future. However, Ellie couldn''t think of what she could do for a while. At home, Jenna was the one who took care of her, and she had never done any cooking or cleaning. She was even forcefully adding the skill of washing clothes to herself. In fact, she had never washed a single piece of clothing at home, but instead put them in the washing machine. Ellie was very regretful in her heart. Why didn''t she learn how to cook from her sister at home? Ellie observed Jason Williams all over, except for the dirty clothes... Eh. Ellie''s eyes lit up, and she suddenly thought of a skill that could help Jason Williams. "I can also massage. My massage is very comfortable..." "Is that so?" Jason Williams nodded, then looked at Ellie with a serious expression: "I have very strict requirements for massage. If you don''t massage well, I will abandon you and take your sister away." Ah~ Ellie''s small face collapsed. She really didn''t know how to massage. This was also a skill she had temporarily made up. "My massage skills are not very good either. Don''t be too strict, okay..." Ellie begged pitifully, and at the same time, she started acting cute. This was her usual method of acting spoiled when asking her sister for something. "Puhahahaha..." Jason Williams and Jenna couldn''t help but laugh at the same time. Jenna covered her mouth and chuckled. She felt that Jason Williams was very interesting and not the kind of fierce person. She was actually very afraid of Jason Williams''s fierce appearance when he killed Monty and his group. However, after a brief interaction, she knew that Jason Williams was not a fierce villain. So she was willing to follow this person with her sister. Unauthorized reproduction: this story has been taken without approval. Report sightings. Ellie knew that she was being teased when she saw Jason Williams and her sister laughing, and her face turned red. "You...you, Sister, why are you bullying me too." Ellie wanted to complain to Jason Williams, but she was afraid that Jason Williams would be angry, so she could only question her sister on the side. Jenna wanted to explain, but she was very restrained in front of Jason Williams and didn''t know how to tell her sister. Seeing Jason Williams looking at her, she lowered her head even more shyly. Then Jason Williams opened his mouth and said: "It''s okay for you sisters to follow me, but you must guarantee your loyalty and become my women. Are you willing?" Ellie and Jenna were stunned after hearing this, and then their faces turned red. Ellie was the first to react and nodded quickly: "I am willing." "As long as you can protect me and my sister in the future, we will listen to you in the future." Jenna, with a blushing face, whispered: "I am willing too." They sisters were not stupid. Only a man like Jason Williams with strength could protect them. As for the stepfather Akizuki Takashi, the sisters were already disheartened. He didn''t have the ability to get food, forcing Jenna to sell her body, and not only did this stepfather not try to persuade her, he directly agreed. What was even more infuriating was that he sold Jenna to a group of beasts. At that time, Jenna was scared stiff. If Jason Williams hadn''t appeared, her chances of surviving today would have been slim. How could there be such a thing as selling one''s daughter. Therefore, Jenna didn''t want to pay attention to this stepfather Akizuki Takashi either. Not to mention Ellie, she looked down on Akizuki Takashi in the first place. What happened on the bus today made Ellie even more contemptuous of Akizuki Takashi. Akizuki Takashi, who was covering his vitals and eavesdropping on the side, saw that his two adopted daughters were going to follow a strange man and become his women, and he immediately spoke out to stop them. "No, I don''t agree." Jason Williams frowned in confusion, not understanding who this Akizuki Takashi was. Who gave this person the courage to stop him from taking in women. Akizuki Takashi felt the cold killing intent in Jason Williams''s eyes, and he was so frightened that he shivered and almost wet his pants. "I am Jenna and Ellie''s father. I promised their mother that I would take good care of them. You can''t kill me." Akizuki Takashi said in fear. Father? Jason Williams frowned. He didn''t expect the two women to have a father, so it was a bit difficult to handle. At this time, Ellie immediately explained to Jason Williams: "He is not our real father. He is a stepfather. If it wasn''t for him wanting to sell my sister for food, my sister wouldn''t have been targeted by this group of people." "Damn, so beastly?" Jason Williams looked at Akizuki Takashi with disgust. He understood the ins and outs of the matter after Ellie''s explanation. It''s better to get rid of such a beastly person quickly. Then Jason Williams walked towards Akizuki Takashi step by step with killing intent. Akizuki Takashi''s face changed drastically: "You can''t kill me. If you kill me, your reputation will stink." "In the future, the chat channel will spread the bad name of you killing a father and robbing his daughters." "Oh?" Jason Williams sneered: "When has David Lee been afraid of a villain like you ruining his reputation." Uh... Akizuki Takashi was stunned for a moment. Was this person really called David Lee? Why did he have a feeling that he couldn''t wait for someone to slander his reputation? And Ellie and Jenna looked at each other, but they also knew that Jason Williams''s name was... David Lee. When Jason Williams originally wanted to kill Akizuki Takashi, he realized that this person looked familiar. Then, he remembered this person from his previous life. This person seemed to be David Lee''s number one lackey. As for why Akizuki Takashi could become a lackey, it seemed that he had mastered a formula for a love potion and was favored by David Lee. Jason Williams now guessed that after using that potion, it should be able to harvest a large amount of Favor Points from women. In this way, Jason Williams hesitated whether to kill Akizuki Takashi. Killing Akizuki Takashi, causing that potion formula to not be able to appear in the world, would also be a loss. Don''t look at how Jason Williams can easily make E-Rank Attribute Orbs now. But the later B-Rank and A-Rank Attribute Orbs each require thousands of Attribute Points. How long would he have to save up? So Jason Williams must control the love potion formula. 26 - Broken Promises Akizuki Takashi was currently his best hope of obtaining the love potion formula. Moreover, Akizuki Takashi was, in name, the father of Jenna and Ellie. Jenna still had some feelings for him, so Jason Williams definitely couldn''t kill Akizuki Takashi in front of the two girls. Although Jason Williams wouldn''t kill Akizuki Takashi, he definitely wouldn''t let him off easily. So, he started slapping Akizuki Takashi across the face repeatedly. Akizuki Takashi was completely stunned by the slaps. Jason Williams''s E+ Rank strength meant each slap sent his brain buzzing. If Jason Williams hadn''t held back, he could have been slapped to death. "Ah!" Akizuki Takashi screamed in agony, his mouth full of blood. Several teeth were knocked out, but he didn''t dare to utter any harsh words. Behind them, Jenna couldn''t bear to watch and looked away, while her sister Ellie watched with great interest, cheering with satisfaction. After a moment, both of Akizuki Takashi''s cheeks were swollen high, clearly slapped into a pig''s head. Only then did Jason Williams stop. Akizuki Takashi''s eyes held venomous rage, but he quickly begged in a low voice: "Don''t kill me. Ellie and Jenna will be yours from now on. I will absolutely not ruin your reputation." Not ruin my reputation? Only a fool would believe that. Anyway, Jason Williams didn''t believe it at all, knowing that Akizuki Takashi was using a delaying tactic. Given the opportunity, this person would definitely ruin David Lee''s reputation in the future. Moreover, Jason Williams was very interested in the love potion formula, so he had to play along. "For Jenna''s sake, I can spare your life. Come find me for revenge anytime." After saying that, Jason Williams raised his hand as if to slap Akizuki Takashi again. Akizuki Takashi was so scared that he quickly raised his hands to protect his face. Jason Williams seized the opportunity, suddenly raising his foot and kicking out, hitting Akizuki Takashi squarely in the groin. Bam! With this kick, Jason Williams aimed to castrate Akizuki Takashi. Even if Akizuki Takashi found the love potion formula in the future, he wouldn''t be able to use it. Akizuki Takashi''s eyes rolled back, and he fainted directly from the pain, foaming at the mouth. Jason Williams nodded in satisfaction, signaling Ellie and Jenna to prepare to get out of the vehicle. Get out of the vehicle? Before Ellie and Jenna could say anything, some of the women on the vehicle protested. "Wait, David Lee, where are you going?" A woman with a face full of pockmarks immediately questioned. Jason Williams looked at this woman inexplicably: "Of course, I''m getting out of the vehicle and leaving this place. Did you want me to stay on the vehicle?" This woman instead questioned: "If you get out of the vehicle and leave, who will protect us?" "Look at the men on this vehicle. They have basically been killed off by you. You must stay and be responsible for protecting us women." This story originates from Royal Road. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there. Many women on the vehicle also echoed, demanding that Jason Williams must stay on the bus to protect them. These women were able to demand this of Jason Williams because they saw from what Jason Williams had just done that he was a good person with a sense of justice. For example, after getting on the vehicle, he immediately stepped in to save the Jenna sisters. And slapping the beast of a stepfather, Akizuki Takashi, was also in the name of justice. These good people were most easily morally blackmailed, and they couldn''t let Jason Williams get out of the vehicle and leave. Jason Williams also realized what these women were thinking, so he sneered: "With these men dead, don''t you have the opportunity to lure monsters and steal treasure chests? I should have helped you." What Jason Williams said was true. In most bus situations, the opportunities to find resources were controlled by the men. Women basically had no chance to participate. Even if a woman dared to boldly steal a treasure chest, after getting the items inside, they would be snatched away by the men on the vehicle. Over time, a situation would appear on the bus where men found treasure chests, and women sold their bodies. But now that Jason Williams had killed most of the men on the vehicle, these women, if they are capable, can seize this opportunity to find treasure chests, and they would have the opportunity to turn themselves into strong people. However, these women obviously didn''t understand this. They only wanted to enjoy the right to be taken care of and protected, and never thought about what they had to give. This was also because the laws and morals of the original world had protected them too well. At this time, a fat-headed, big-eared woman said dissatisfied: "Are you even a man? Actually letting us women face those monsters." "We women are naturally weaker than you men, and should enjoy the right to be protected." "That''s right, what the sisters are saying is correct. This person took in those two sisters because he liked their beauty. He''s a total jerk..." "Hmph, so what if he has a little strength? There''s nothing great about it." "He must stay on the vehicle to find food for us. I''ve been hungry for a day..." These women talked at once, becoming more and more excited. Originally, they wanted to persuade Jason Williams to stay, but as they spoke, they actually began to condemn Jason Williams for being a jerk. Jason Williams was completely numb. He suddenly remembered an organization from his previous life that rivaled David Lee, Feminism. The leader of Feminism, Wang Ling, not only possessed the Iron Fist skill, but also had considerable strength. Her means of transportation was also A-Rank. The most terrifying thing was Feminism leader Wang Ling''s powerful appeal. Every time she went to a world, there would be thousands of women who supported her. Men who fell into their hands would only be sucked dry of all value before dying in despair. In his previous life, Jason Williams had almost fallen into the hands of Feminism. At the time, if it hadn''t been for Lily Young protecting him, he would have been killed by that group of women. And in the next extremely hot world, Feminism leader Wang Ling would descend into the same area as Jason Williams. Just as Jason Williams was preparing to deal with these women, Ellie, with her blonde pigtails, stood up. At this time, Ellie stood with her hands on her hips, like a proud little hen, spraying insults at these Feminists. "You big pig head, you still have the nerve to let Tianyu brother find food for you? Don''t you look at how fat you''ve become?" "And that pockmarked auntie, you''re as ugly as a toad. Why are you saying Tianyu brother is a jerk? You still want Tianyu brother to protect you? I think you deserve a slap." "And you, the dark-skinned big sister, are you also mixed-race? Oh, you''re not... You''re just dirty from not showering for too long? I thought you had African ancestry..." Ellie''s little mouth was truly poisonous, specializing in attacking the Feminists'' flaws. The Feminists'' faces turned red with anger, and they all wanted to step forward and tear Ellie''s mouth apart. Ellie was not afraid at all, crossing her arms and looking down on them with arrogance. She was not afraid of this group of women at all. And Jenna, holding two Wooden Spears, came obediently to Jason Williams''s side. "Tianyu brother, don''t take those people''s words to heart." "You saved us sisters, and we are truly willing to follow you. As long as we can be by your side, I am willing to do anything..." Speaking of the end, Jenna lowered her head, blushing. 27 - Threes Company Jason Williams looked at Jenna, then looked at Ellie, who was standing in front of him, verbally battling the Feminists. At this moment, Jason Williams could only see Ellie''s small back, and her golden pigtails swinging behind her, which made Jason Williams recognize her prideful side. The Feminists on the bus were being called out one by one by Ellie, then she used vicious words to comment on their flaws. Jason Williams wouldn''t even glance at these Feminists; naturally, their appearances weren''t anything good. Although Ellie''s words were vicious, they were also the truth. The Feminists were gradually losing their minds from anger, loudly cursing Ellie. They weren''t satisfied with just cursing Ellie, and they even cursed Jenna and Jason Williams along with her. They had now completely forgotten what Jason Williams looked like when he killed people. And the only three or four men and a few rational women left on the bus had already hid in the corner, hoping that they wouldn''t be implicated and killed by them. They didn''t know what was wrong with these women. When Monty, the criminal, was on the bus, they didn''t dare to say a word. Now, they dared to curse Jason Williams, the strong man who had killed Monty. They really didn''t want to live long enough. And the fat woman who was cursed as a pig couldn''t bear it any longer, and rushed towards Ellie, wanting to tear her apart. Other women saw the fat woman step forward, and their confidence greatly increased, and they all followed to step forward. They had completely forgotten Jason Williams''s existence. In fact, these Feminists were very jealous of the Ellie sisters in their hearts. Not only were they young and beautiful, but they were also virgins. They could be taken in as women by Jason Williams, and with his protection in the future, would they still have to worry about eating, drinking, and safety? That''s why they wanted to keep Jason Williams on the bus. "You little bitch, watch me tear your mouth apart." The fat woman reached out to grab Ellie. Ellie faced the fat woman, who was twice her size, completely unafraid. She rolled up her sleeves and prepared for a bitch fight. Seeing this, Jason Williams stopped watching the show and immediately stepped forward. He punched towards the fat woman''s face. Bam! Jason Williams only felt his fist sink into a layer of fat, and he could even feel a layer of grease sticking to his fist. The next moment, the fat woman''s one hundred eighty-pound body flew out directly. Then it smashed into the Feminists who came up from behind. "Ah, you dead fat pig, get off me, you''re crushing me." "Ugh~, how long hasn''t this fat woman taken a shower? Her body smells terrible, it''s disgusting..." "I don''t know, I heard she was holed up at home for half a year before coming to the Escape World... Hurry up and lift her up, I''m about to be crushed to death." Jason Williams looked at his fist and felt disgusted for a while. No wonder it felt greasy when he punched her. It was probably because she hadn''t washed her face for too long. At this time, Ellie happily hugged Jason Williams''s arm: "Tianyu brother, I knew you would take action." Ellie''s brains weren''t as messed up as these Feminists. She dared to face this group of women fearlessly because Jason Williams was supporting her. Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings. Jason Williams smiled and rubbed Ellie''s small head with his dirty hand: "You performed well. I didn''t expect you to be so good at cursing people." Feeling Jason Williams''s big hand rubbing her head, Ellie became even more proud. "Tianyu brother, if there is such a thing in the future, I''ll help you curse them." At this moment, Ellie had found her usefulness: Cursing people for Jason Williams. This was much easier than washing clothes and giving massages. Then he had Ellie and Jenna get off the bus first, and then used Wooden Spears to stab to death all the women who had been cursing. Before getting off the bus, Jason Williams packed up all the food collected by Monty and the others and took it away, not leaving a single bit for Akizuki Takashi. On the highway. Ellie and Jenna were eating the bread that Monty had saved. They had been hungry for more than a day, and they finally had something to eat. Jason Williams watched the bus drive away, and then immediately contacted Chloe to pick him up. Chloe had parked the RV on the highway and had been waiting all morning. Seeing Jason Williams send a message, she immediately drove the RV to pick up Jason Williams. Jason Williams looked at Ellie and Jenna and said, "Let''s wait a while, a vehicle will come to pick us up soon." Ellie finished eating a bread, and after drinking a few mouthfuls of water, she realized how good it felt to have food to eat. "Tianyu brother, you''re actually the vehicle owner, that''s great. My sister and I can finally not have to take the bus in the future." Ellie pulled her sister and jumped up and down, her face full of anticipation. If they could get on a vehicle, who would want to take that chaotic bus? "Oh, right." Jason Williams saw that Ellie was still calling him Tianyu brother, so he took off his disguise mask: "Let me reintroduce myself. My name is not David Lee, David Lee is just my enemy." "My name is Jason Williams." Ah! 2 Ellie and Jenna exclaimed at the same time. Ellie immediately stepped forward and carefully looked at Jason Williams''s handsome face. Jason Williams asked in confusion, "What''s wrong?" "So handsome." Ellie''s heart couldn''t help but beat faster. Jenna stood on the side, her eyes always fixed on Jason Williams, and then her cheeks became more and more red... The two women now understood. No wonder Jason Williams wasn''t afraid of others ruining his reputation. It turned out that he wasn''t David Lee at all. "Tianyu... Jason Williams brother, you''re so bad. You were using a fake name. David Lee has been screwed by you." This time there were no outsiders around. Jason Williams and the two women chatted on the highway, truly understanding each other''s situation. The two women were also very surprised to learn that Jason Williams''s vehicle was an RV. Especially when they learned that there was a large bathroom in the RV, they were extremely excited. Jenna was no longer reserved, and her personality became much more cheerful, sharing her hobby of cooking with Jason Williams. But when she saw Jason Williams''s handsome face, she would blush from time to time. Twenty minutes later, Chloe finally drove the RV and appeared on the highway. Jason Williams brought the somewhat restrained two women onto the RV. "Hello, Chloe sister." Ellie and Jenna saw Chloe and immediately stepped forward to greet their senior. Chloe looked at the Ellie sisters with glowing eyes, but she hid it very well and was not discovered by anyone. "You two sisters are so beautiful. Are you hungry? Are you thirsty?" "Oh my, sisters, why are your bodies covered in dust? Come on, let me take you to take a bath." Chloe didn''t care about Jason Williams and pulled the two sisters to take a bath in the large bathroom. Jason Williams didn''t care. In his opinion, Chloe was trying to win over the two sisters and establish her status as the eldest sister. Jason Williams then took out the ten wheat seeds and ten rice seeds he had obtained earlier. He directly planted them in twenty planting pots, and then watered them, waiting for them to mature in the future. Then Jason Williams synthesized the vehicle fuel tank. He was still short three 0-star blueprints to meet the requirements for upgrading the RV to 1 star. 28 - Chloe‘s fault Jason Williams was just about to think about what to eat for lunch when he heard exclamations from the large bathroom. Huh!? Danger... A monster had infiltrated the RV? Jason Williams dropped the instant noodles and rushed into the bathroom at top speed, only to see... Ellie and Jenna being bullied by Chloe. Chloe''s behavior was clearly abnormal. Jason Williams suddenly remembered Chloe''s special situation. Jason Williams was completely dumbfounded. He had worked so hard to bring Ellie and Jenna onto the RV, only to have them... stolen by Chloe? "Chloe, what are you doing?" "Ah... Hubby, let me explain... No, Hubby, I was wrong..." Chloe''s Favor Points +6 Ellie and Jenna hurriedly fled the bathroom. They hadn''t expected that they would be bullied by Chloe sister. They were all women, why did women have to make things difficult for other women? Fortunately, Jason Williams brother came in time and saved them. In fact, after getting on the RV, they had naturally prepared themselves mentally for their future situation. Jason Williams had also told them everything after getting off the bus. They were already adults, not children. In this Escape World, which was like the end of the world, there was no legal restraint. All everyone saw were food and resources. If they wanted to survive, Jason Williams was their reliance. The two women sat on the bed, feeling nervous and worried. Chloe sister wouldn''t retaliate against them for this, would she? "Jason Williams brother is too amazing. Luckily Chloe sister attracted Jason Williams brother''s anger," Ellie said, expressing her opinion. Jenna was stunned; her sister''s way of thinking was so unique. She couldn''t help but nod in agreement. Thinking about it like this, the two sisters actually felt much more at ease. So, they perked up their ears, listening to Chloe''s pleas for mercy. Ellie suddenly asked, "Sister, are you ready?" "Ah..." Jenna didn''t know how to answer her sister. Originally, on the bus, she was willing to sacrifice herself in order to keep her sister from going hungry. But now, she didn''t know why but she was a little scared. Maybe it was because she already liked Jason Williams brother, or maybe she was frightened by Chloe''s situation. Ellie saw her sister''s embarrassment and immediately comforted her: "Sister, don''t be afraid... Jason Williams brother won''t bully us." "Yeah... Ellie, thank you. I also believe Jason Williams brother. We must listen to him in the future." After comforting each other, the sisters weren''t afraid anymore. In this Escape World, as long as they were together, they wouldn''t be afraid of any danger. They were each other''s support. An hour later, Jason Williams came out carrying Chloe. Seeing Ellie and Jenna sitting there obediently, Jason Williams walked over. Chloe was a little embarrassed and immediately pretended to be asleep in Jason Williams''s arms. She had just been punished by Jason Williams and felt very embarrassed. Chloe was also blaming the two women in her heart. Wasn''t she just bullying you a little? Why were you screaming so exaggeratedly? It caused Jason Williams to come, and she was punished in front of them. It was simply too embarrassing. Support the creativity of authors by visiting the original site for this novel and more. Jason Williams also knew that Chloe was pretending to be asleep to save face, and he didn''t expose her. As the eldest sister, she naturally had to maintain her image in front of her younger sisters. Jason Williams settled Chloe down, and then apologized to the two women: "I didn''t scare you just now, did I? Chloe is actually a very good person... Don''t worry, she won''t bully you in the future." Ellie and Jenna quickly said that they didn''t hold a grudge. Chloe hadn''t really beaten or scolded them; there was no reason to hold a grudge. Jason Williams was very gratified to see the two women, and then led them to the bed, collecting 5 Favor Points from each of them again. Collecting the Favor Points meant that they had shed their virgin status. At the same time, their initial Favor Points were both 5, which showed their sincerity. Thus, Jason Williams felt relieved to leave them on the RV, not worrying that they would harm him. Jason Williams used the towel blueprints he had obtained in the morning to synthesize two towels and collected two Plum Blossom Towels. By the way, Chloe''s bedsheets were also collected by Jason Williams. The bed was currently even without bedsheets. Ellie and Jenna were also tired. After feeling that the RV was very safe, they fell asleep. They had suffered a lot on the bus these past two days. Even if they were just staying on the bus, their spirits were always tense and they hadn''t rested much at all. After all, their stepfather was unreliable, and there were criminals on the bus. Naturally, the two women didn''t dare to rest much. Now they naturally fell asleep from exhaustion. Jason Williams covered the two women with blankets, then came to Chloe and held her in his arms. "Hubby, I''m sorry. I won''t do that kind of thing again in the future. Don''t be angry." Chloe gently kissed Jason Williams. She had just thought about it, and what she had done was indeed wrong. Jason Williams gently flicked Chloe''s small head. "When did I get angry?" "Why are you in such a hurry about this? Look how scared they were. I thought a monster had infiltrated." Chloe scratched her head in embarrassment, then she was stunned. What did Jason Williams mean by that? Seeing that Chloe still didn''t understand, Jason Williams patiently explained: "You''re the first wife, and their older sister." "Bullying them privately will only make your relationship incompatible and lower your status as the first wife." "If you really want to, Hubby will take you tonight, then you can take any advantage you want, right?" "Moreover, Hubby will be going to the bus again this afternoon, and he might bring back one or two more people. You can''t bully them anymore." "In the future, there will only be more and more people on the RV. You will be in charge of managing all of them, so you can''t bully people anymore." The meaning in Jason Williams''s words was very clear. Even if Chloe was stupid, she understood. "Hubby, I love you," Chloe said emotionally. Chloe''s Favor Points +7 The two chatted on the sofa, and Chloe told Jason Williams about her special situation. Then Chloe made a serious oath, saying that she was only loyal to Jason Williams. Jason Williams smiled and rubbed Chloe''s head. He had the ability to collect Favor Points and naturally knew her true feelings. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have let this woman be the first wife. Chloe''s situation wasn''t a big deal in Jason Williams''s eyes. She wasn''t really putting a green hat on him. If he couldn''t accept even this kind of thing, then Jason Williams was too petty. Jason Williams took out four Attribute Orbs and gave them to Chloe, telling her to strengthen her spirit attribute to E+ Rank. "Thank you, Hubby," Chloe said without being polite, taking the Attribute Orbs and absorbing them directly. Jason Williams then exchanged six Attribute Orbs, and also strengthened his spirit attribute to E+ Rank. Thus, all of Jason Williams''s attributes were now E+ Rank. Jason Williams looked at the 26 Favor Points he had left. He temporarily didn''t exchange for Attribute Orbs. He was already very strong, and he wasn''t in a hurry to strengthen to D Rank. After eating a little something, Jason Williams got off the RV to continue looking for beautiful virgins on the bus. Chloe drove the RV away, leaving Jason Williams on the highway. And Jason Williams put on his disguise mask, carried his Wooden Spear, and waited on the highway for the bus to pick him up. 29 - An Unexpected Bus Encounter As the second day was about to pass, even those who couldn''t accept the Escape World were gradually understanding the cruelty of this world. This was especially true for the women who had boarded the bus. They had originally wanted to wait for men to find food for them. But the bus could only find eight or nine treasure chests a day, and the food that came out of the treasure chests wasn''t even enough for the men themselves. Who would share food with the women? Most of the women could only starve. If they wanted to obtain food, the women only had two choices: compete with the men for resources, or rely on men and use their bodies to exchange for resources. Many women, in order not to starve to death, participated in the action of fighting for treasure chests and grabbing resources. Kira was one of them. Kira was originally a female instructor at a gym. She had a very good figure, but it wasn''t the kind with a protruding chest, a curvy waist, and plump hips. Instead, it was like a female leopard, with a slender figure and some visible muscle lines, matched with wheat-colored skin, giving people a very energetic and wild beauty. It was precisely because she had these conditions that Kira dared to compete for resources. On the highway, Kira and a dozen men were constantly throwing stones at a Gray Wolf. The Gray Wolf was battered by the stones, looking very disheveled. It could only growl a few times, and then turn around and run away. Seeing the Gray Wolf run away, everyone''s faces were filled with joy, and they all focused their attention on the wooden treasure chest in the Wasteland. Then everyone ran towards the treasure chest. Driving away the Gray Wolf wasn''t difficult; what was difficult was how to snatch the things in the treasure chest from more than a dozen people. Kira ran at the back of the crowd. She didn''t rush to the front because she was just one person, and a woman at that. Even if she rushed to the front, she wouldn''t be able to grab anything. She wanted to look for opportunities to scavenge. She saw the group of men in front open the treasure chest and start the things inside, creating a chaotic scene. "Put down the bread!" "Get lost, I got the bread first." Kira stood at the back, constantly scanning the chaotic scene, wanting to take the opportunity to grab food. However, obviously, this kind of thing wasn''t happening for the first time. Everyone was prepared for this kind of scene. Those who grabbed something immediately looked for teammates to protect them. With teammates protecting them, it was difficult to snatch their things away. The chaos gradually subsided. Kira could only sigh regretfully. She had been busy for nothing again. Everyone returned to the bus. The bus slowly started and began to look for the next treasure chest. Kira sat alone in the corner, enduring the hunger in her stomach, and felt a sense of grievance in her heart. On the bus, she simply couldn''t snatch food from the men. The women on the bus had already begun to rely on men. Only she, Kira, still adhered to her principles and didn''t rely on those men. But if things continued like this, she would starve to death. "Beautiful Kira, are you hungry?" Hank, a young man, held a piece of bread and asked Kira with a smile. Kira rolled her eyes: "I''ve said, I have a boyfriend. I won''t sell my body for food." "Tch~" Hank curled his lip in disdain. "What''s the situation now? You''re still thinking about being faithful to your boyfriend? Maybe he''s already died in the hands of some monster." "Isn''t it good for you to follow me? I''ll be your boyfriend in the future." Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings. Hank''s words greatly affected Kira. Her boyfriend should have descended into another Escape World area. As for how her boyfriend was doing, she didn''t know. He might have died in the hands of some monster. Or he might be struggling to survive on some vehicle. Even if he didn''t die, would they really have a chance to meet again in the future? Kira''s boyfriend was someone she had been dating since college. They had reached the point of talking about marriage after graduation. However, fate was a trickster. Everyone had descended into the Escape World. Was it still necessary for her to protect her virginity for love? In order to survive, should she also rely on a man? "Give me some time to consider..." Kira finally gave in. Hank was overjoyed when he heard this and looked at Kira''s vibrant, wild body with fiery eyes. "Okay, here''s the bread for you. Fill your stomach first." After giving the bread to Kira, Hank excitedly returned to his seat and looked back at Kira from time to time. He couldn''t take it anymore just from looking at such a hot woman. And after Kira felt Hank''s gaze, she frowned non-stop. At the same time, some men on the bus were also looking at her with fiery eyes. They were all waiting, waiting for Kira to put down her dignity and exchange food for her body. They wouldn''t be stingy about spending some food to play with Kira. Kira''s figure and appearance were clearly much higher than the other women on the bus. Which man wouldn''t want to play with her? Gurulu~ The sound of her stomach growling rang out. Kira held the bread, which was like Pandora''s box. Once she opened it, she would fall into the abyss. But she was so hungry that she couldn''t bear it anymore. Just as she was about to open the bread, the bus began to slow down and stop. Huh!? Another treasure chest? Everyone was puzzled. It stood to reason that they had just encountered a treasure chest. To find the next one they would have to wait at least one or two hours. Everyone immediately looked out the window. They saw Jason Williams, carrying a Wooden Spear, walking onto the bus, covered in dust. He had spent most of the day waiting for the bus on the highway. Being blown by the strong wind and sand, he was naturally covered in dust. In the afternoon, Jason Williams had boarded six buses one after another, but he had not found a beautiful virgin. He had found two or three beautiful women, but when he asked them if they were virgins, they avoided answering. They even questioned Jason Williams, was that membrane so important? Why were you men so conservative in your thinking? Then Jason Williams, in the name of David Lee, slapped them twice. In the end, Jason Williams, without any hope, boarded this last bus. "Oh, so someone''s getting on the bus. I thought we had encountered a treasure chest," The people on the bus saw Jason Williams get on the bus and immediately started to discuss. "Look, he''s carrying a Wooden Spear." "Tch, what''s so surprising about that? That thing costs twenty Escape Coins a piece. If there''s still any for sale tonight, I''ll go buy one too." Jason Williams didn''t care about the discussions on the bus, but instead patted the dust off his body. Then he scanned the women on the bus one by one. Finally, his gaze stopped on Kira in the corner. That was... Kira? She was actually on this bus. Jason Williams recognized Kira at a glance. After all, such a wild beauty wouldn''t be forgotten once she was known. And Jason Williams could recognize Kira because the two were college classmates. When they were in school, Jason Williams was recognized as the campus heartthrob, and Kira was also recognized as the campus belle. It was just that the two didn''t have much interaction, and they had only said a few words at most. Later, Kira found a rich second-generation boyfriend who opened a gym, while Jason Williams found Sarah Jones, that ӻgirlfriend. Unexpectedly, fate was a trickster, and Jason Williams actually met Kira today. 30 - The Noodle Bargain Jason Williams hesitated about whether to approach Kira. He wasn''t sure if Kira was still a virgin, especially since Kira had dated a rich second-generation boyfriend, which basically meant she wasn''t a virgin. But Kira was indeed a top-tier beauty. Moreover, the two were college classmates. Although they weren''t close, there was still a relationship there. Jason Williams decided to ask Kira anyway. If she was a virgin, then he would abduct her. If she wasn''t, then Jason Williams would at most waste some words asking. So, Jason Williams carried the Wooden Spear and walked towards Kira. After Jason Williams got on the bus, he walked towards Kira without saying a word, ignoring the people on the bus. This clearly annoyed some people. A man immediately stopped Jason Williams: "Hey, bro, aren''t you going to introduce yourself after getting on the bus?" "I see the Wooden Spear in your hand is not bad. Let me borrow it for a bit." Jason Williams suddenly reached out and grabbed the man''s neck. Under everyone''s gaze, he easily lifted him up with one hand. "My name is David Lee, and my strength has been strengthened to E+ Rank with Attribute Orbs. You better not provoke me." After saying that, Jason Williams easily threw the adult man away. Everyone was shocked. They immediately realized that Jason Williams was not an ordinary person. Was E+ Rank strength so terrifying? Easily throwing an adult man away with one hand. Those who originally wanted to teach Jason Williams a lesson all sat down obediently. This person was a powerhouse. They couldn''t afford to provoke him, they really couldn''t! Even Hank, the young man who had given Kira bread, sat back in his seat like a quail. The inside of the bus was like it had been muted. Everyone was silent. Kira was startled when she saw Jason Williams walking towards her. She immediately tensed up. She knew that her beauty had brought her trouble again. Jason Williams plopped down onto the seat next to Kira, then glanced at the bread in Kira''s hand. "Yo, you''re doing well. You even have bread to eat." Kira looked embarrassed and could only respectfully give the bread to Jason Williams. "Big brother, you haven''t had dinner yet, right? Here''s the bread for you." Jason Williams wasn''t polite at all and took the bread, opened it, and ate it. Kira wanted to cry but had no tears. She was so miserable. Why did all the bad things happen to her? Kira could only silently watch Jason Williams chew on her bread, then constantly swallow her saliva. Because the two were sitting close together, Kira could smell the wheat fragrance emanating from the bread. And Jason Williams ate the bread in big mouthfuls, smacking his lips with each bite, letting Kira know clearly how soft and delicious the bread was. Gurulu~ Kira''s stomach seemed to know that there was food and kept protesting. Jason Williams acted like he didn''t hear it, but the sound of him eating bread got even louder. Gurulu~ Her stomach continued to protest. The bread in Jason Williams''s mouth tasted better and better. He had to chew every mouthful of bread seven or eight times before swallowing. Kira could tell that Jason Williams was teasing her. Had she offended him? Kira recorded this matter in her heart. If she had the opportunity in the future, she would definitely take revenge on this person. Jason Williams ate a whole piece of bread in ten minutes. Kira was about to collapse. Her stomach also protested for ten minutes, but Jason Williams ignored her. Alright, alright. Kira clenched her fists. She was very vengeful and would definitely take revenge on this person in the future. After Jason Williams finished eating the bread, he contacted Chloe and asked her to make him a Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup, Chicken Flavor. Then Jason Williams quietly sat in his seat and waited. Kira was a little confused by this. However, the fact that this person hadn''t touched her meant that she was temporarily safe. The only pity was that bread. She hadn''t even had a bite, and it had all been eaten by this bastard. Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. After about a few minutes... Kira stared at Jason Williams''s hand with wide eyes. She personally saw Jason Williams open the system panel, click it twice, and then a Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup, Chicken Flavor appeared in his hand. Gurulu~ Kira''s stomach protested again. Kira shook her head frantically, throwing away all the evil thoughts in her mind. She was a fitness woman and never ate junk food like instant noodles. Jason Williams gave Kira a mischievous smile, then opened the instant noodles... A unique fragrance of Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup, Chicken Flavor wafted out. The people on the bus who smelled it constantly swallowed their saliva, and their stomachs also rumbled. The most miserable person was still Kira. She smelled it most clearly, and also personally watched Jason Williams slurp the noodles with a fork, then take a sip of the rich soup, making a "Haa~" sound of satisfaction. Kira could only respond with her stomach rumbling. "Oh, there''s also a marinated egg and a chicken sausage in it." Jason Williams acted like he didn''t know what was in the instant noodles and showed it to Kira in a very irritating way. Kira could only respond with a roll of her eyes. But her gaze was always locked on the instant noodles. There really was a marinated egg and a chicken sausage! It was too extravagant. Jason Williams used a fork to pick up the marinated egg, then handed it to Kira: "Want to eat it?" Kira gritted her teeth. She knew it. Jason Williams was using food to seduce her and had his eyes on her beauty. "I won''t sell my body for a marinated egg." "Oh." Jason Williams nodded, then bit off half of the marinated egg in his hand. "Ah!" Kira shouted, as if she had lost half a marinated egg. Jason Williams used a fork to pick up a piece of chicken sausage, then looked at Kira and asked again: "Want to eat it?" "Yes," Kira answered without hesitation. This time she didn''t dare to say anything stupid again. Otherwise, it would be a pity if the chicken sausage was eaten by Jason Williams. Jason Williams nodded, then continued to ask: "Are you still a virgin?" Uh... Kira looked at Jason Williams speechlessly. She knew that she had met a man with a virginity fetish. Jason Williams saw that Kira didn''t answer and immediately bit off a piece of the chicken sausage. "Ah!" Kira shouted. She had lost another bite of chicken sausage. Seeing that Jason Williams was going to eat more, Kira became anxious and quickly said: "I am, I am a virgin." "You''re a virgin? Didn''t you have a rich second-generation boyfriend? How can you be a virgin?" Jason Williams questioned. Kira widened her eyes in shock and carefully looked at Jason Williams''s face: "Who are you? Do we know each other?" Jason Williams smiled coldly and ate another bite of the chicken sausage. "I''m asking you, not you asking me." Kira looked at the less than half-eaten chicken sausage and felt a pang of heartache in her heart. So, she quickly explained: "Although we were dating, we didn''t do that kind of thing. I was planning to give my first time to him after we got married, so I''m still a virgin now." Jason Williams nodded, thinking that Kira had some tricks up her sleeve. She seemed to know that rich second generations were unreliable and wouldn''t give up her first blood in advance like those stupid women in order to marry into a rich family. Even if she and her rich second-generation boyfriend had made vows of eternal love, she had kept her bottom line. "Room and board included, guaranteed safety, do you want to become my woman?" Jason Williams handed the instant noodles in his hand to Kira. Kira looked at the instant noodles that Jason Williams handed over, knowing what that meant. The oath she had made with her boyfriend, promising each other for life, quickly flashed through her mind. Tears welled up in her eyes. She was going to break her oath. Then Kira gritted her teeth and took the instant noodles, looking at the half-eaten marinated egg and half-eaten chicken sausage, and immediately ate it in big mouthfuls. So fragrant! 31 - Tame the badass Kira took small sips of her Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup, Chicken Flavor, a look of contentment spreading across her face. She savored every mouthful, afraid to gulp it down too quickly. Back in the day, she wouldn''t have given this ramen a second glance. Now, Kira had only two words for it: delicious! Her only regret was that Jason Williams had taken a bite out of both the hard-boiled egg and the chicken sausage. The guy was such a jerk. Of course, Kira only dared to complain about Jason Williams in her head. On the surface, she was nothing but respectful towards him. Soon, Kira had finished off the entire container of ramen, even slurping up all the broth. Still, she felt like she could eat more. Jason Williams, seeing Kira was done, stood up and addressed everyone on the van. Alright, folks, this is a robbery. Hand over all your resources. Dont make me frisk you. To everyone''s stunned gazes, Jason Williams began his shakedown on the bus. Whatcha hiding under that jacket? Gimme that. Just hand it over. Dont make me search you. You really wanna test an E-Rank strength? "Hey don''t hate David Lee, if I don''t take your stuff, how am I supposed to take care of my wife?" If youre looking for revenge, youre welcome to try anytime. But I suggest you use those blueprints to trade for Attribute Orbs in the Group Chat App first. Get your strength up to my level, then come at me. Kira watched Jason Williams robbing everyone on the bus, and her jaw dropped. Wasnt he worried about inciting a riot? What if he enraged everyone on the bus? He wouldnt be able to get away with it. Just as Kira expected, Jason Williams''s actions quickly stirred up anger. Someone immediately stood up. Are we just gonna sit here and let this guy steal the resources we worked so hard to find? Lets rush him! All together! Just as everyone was about to rise, Jason Williams made his move. Smack! Jason Williams suddenly lashed out, slapping the man hard across the face. You got something good hidden, dont ya? Hand it over now. The man who was slapped felt his head spin and it took him a while to recover. Looking at the other passengers in the van, they were all sitting in their seats like good boys and girls, not daring to make a sound while waiting to be robbed. Helpless, the man could only pull out a piece of compressed biscuit. Jason Williams didnt believe for a second that this guy only had a biscuit, and immediately performed a forceful search. Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon. He quickly found a blueprint hidden inside the man''s jacket. [Vehicle Alarm]: 0-Star Vehicle Equipment. Once installed, the vehicle will have an alarm function, protecting against monster attacks at night. Blueprints can be manufactured 5 times. Materials Needed: 20 Escape Coins. Seeing the information on the blueprint, Jason Williams''s eyes lit up. No wonder the man was so anxious after being robbed, even trying to get everyone to rebel against Jason Williams. He really did have something good. This blueprint could create five alarms, and selling them in the Group Chat App would definitely bring in a big profit. He could even save one use and sell the blueprint to Jason Williams for Attribute Orbs. Too bad for him, Jason Williams had now stolen it. Jason Williams pocketed the blueprint and slapped the man a few more times. Smack, smack, smack Youre so asking for it, hiding good stuff like that. The man felt wronged and wanted to cry after being slapped. Did justice even exist in this world anymore? What about the law? Were robbers always this arrogant? Jason Williams didnt care about the mans suffering and continued robbing the others. Each time he robbed someone, Jason Williams carefully searched them, afraid of missing anything good. After searching everyone, Jason Williams only found some food. Jason Williams transferred all of the food to Chloe through the system. Alright, thanks for your cooperation, everyone. If anyones got a problem with this, you can come find David Lee for revenge. Before leaving, Jason Williams didnt forget to stir up more animosity, then he and Kira got off the bus. On the highway. As the bus drove away, Jason Williams immediately contacted Chloe to pick him up. Kira looked at Jason Williams, confused. Why are we getting off the bus? Are you going to rob other buses? Its gonna be nighttime soon. If the bus stops for the night, no one will be able to pick us up Kira voiced her concerns. She had already started thinking of Jason Williams as a highway bandit who specialized in robbing buses. Jason Williams smiled and took off his disguise mask. Relax. Ive got transportation. Why else would I offer you room and board? Huh!? Kira stared at Jason Williams, stunned, as he removed the mask. Then she pointed at Jason Williams and exclaimed, You youre Jason Williams! Seeing Jason Williamss handsome face, Kira immediately recognized him. Wasnt he the campus heartthrob from her college days? Kira was first shocked, then overjoyed to discover Jason Williams was her old classmate. Meeting someone familiar in the Escape World made her incredibly excited. It felt like meeting someone from home in a foreign country. You old dog, you actually ate bread and ramen on the bus to tempt me, take this! After confirming Jason Williamss identity, Kiras courage returned. Ignoring that Jason Williams was much stronger than her, she grabbed him and tried to trip him. Jason Williams was caught off guard. He knew Kira had a rough-and-tumble personality, but he hadnt expected her to immediately try to wrestle him after recognizing him. Kira''s tripping skills were quite good. She knew the right techniques for tripping and using power. Jason Williams felt like a badass was clinging to him, and at the same time, Kira''s perfume made Jason Williams feel restless. Interesting. But the difference in strength between them was too great. There was no way Kira could bring Jason Williams down. Jason Williams reached out and scooped her up. Kira was so shocked. She then realized that Jason Williamss strength was terrifying. Wait, put me down! Kira immediately begged for mercy, struggling in Jason Williamss arms. She had only wanted to trip Jason Williams and get revenge on her old classmate for tempting her with food. Jason Williams sneered, looking at Kira struggling in his arms. You think Im just gonna put you down because you said so? You wanted to trip me? Looks like Im going to have to punish you a little. Kira jumped, not knowing how Jason Williams would punish her. But the next second, her expression changed dramatically. She struggled wildly in Jason Williamss arms, laughing hysterically. Hahaha dont tickle me, hahaha let me go, Im sorry, hahaha Kira tried to get out of Jason Williamss arms. But Jason Williams wasnt about to let her off so easily, and kept tickling her ribs. Kiras shapely, muscular legs involuntarily wrapped around Jason Williamss waist, squeezing tightly. To avoid being tickled, Kira laughed while pressing herself against Jason Williams, reducing the area being tickled. In the end, they were locked in a tight embrace. Whoops!? They both realized at the same time that this position wasnt quite right. Jason Williams stopped tickling Kira and, holding the badass in his arms, asked, "Do you yield?" "I yield." Kira immediately gave in, but in her heart, she was already planning how to get revenge on Jason Williams in the future. Kira tried to get down from Jason Williams, but Jason Williams wouldnt let her. And they just hugged like that, talking about each other''s situations. 32 - Kira in "Pfftyou got dumped by Sarah Jones? Hahaha" Kira couldnt hold it in any longer and burst out laughing. The two were chatting on the highway when Jason Williams told Kira about his situation with Sarah Jones. He didn''t expect Kira to laugh so hard in his arms, her body shaking. Jason Williams was speechless. Was it really that funny? Kira wrapped her arms around Jason Williamss neck, admiring his handsome face. Seeing his confused expression, she said with a smile: "You dont know, when you and Sarah Jones were dating back in college, she made a point of showing off in our dorm room." "She wanted to prove that none of us were as attractive as her, otherwise why would the campus heartthrob be dating her?" "But us girls were secretly betting on when you would dump her. Never thought shed dump you instead." After explaining, Kira giggled mischievously in Jason Williamss arms. Jason Williams felt embarrassed. "Don''t worry." Kira seemed to sense that Jason Williams was a little down and said, "Didn''t Sarah Jones also end up in this area? When we meet her later, Ill help you slap her around." "I couldnt stand her even back then. She loved showing off everything she had. So annoying." Jason Williams frowned. I wanted to slap her around too. I already slapped her once, but it wasn''t satisfying at all." The two agreed that when they saw Sarah Jones again, they would definitely give her a good beating. Jason Williams would have slapped Sarah Jones dozens of times if he wasnt in a hurry to find an RV. How could he have been so blind as to choose that woman as his girlfriend? But he didnt know anything about Sarah Joness current situation. In his past life, Jason Williams had seen Sarah Jones get into an SUV with an older white guy on the bus, and then the two had no further contact. Sarah Jones didnt contact him, and he didnt want to see her either. Would Sarah Jones still get into that old guy''s SUV in this life? Jason Williams hugged Kira and chatted, telling her about the RV, which made Kira''s eyes light up. The RV had a bathroom where she could take a shower? And a bed to sleep in? And an endless supply of food? Kira was already looking forward to life in the RV. Sarah Jones had really missed out, dumping such a promising guy as Jason Williams. What a pea brain. Kira was very glad that she had kept her virginity, otherwise she wouldnt have had the chance to get on that RV today. Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more. They waited for about twenty minutes before the RV appeared at the end of the highway. "Quick, quick, put me down! The RVs here!" Kira, who had been casually leaning in Jason Williamss arms, immediately became nervous when she saw the RV, and kept patting Jason Williams on the back to make him put her down quickly. She heard there were three other sisters on the RV. She didn''t want the sisters to see her clinging to Jason Williams like a baby. Seeing Kira''s anxiety, Jason Williams grinned. "Give me some sugar, or you can just hang on me." "You" Kira never expected Jason Williams to take advantage of her at this time. But she didnt know how to flirt. When she dated her rich second-generation boyfriend, she always had a tomboyish image and never flirted. Seeing Jason Williamss indifferent expression, his arms still tightly hugging her butt and waist, not showing any intention of letting her go, Kira gritted her teeth and punched Jason Williams in the chest, then put on a brave face and coquettishly said: "Jason, please put me down~." "Too stiff. No good. Maybe itll be better if you try calling me ''Hubby''," Jason Williams commented. He demanded this in order to increase their intimacy, which would help him get more Favor Points. Seeing the RV getting closer and closer, Kira couldnt help but feel anxious. She could only force herself to speak in a coy voice: "Hubby, please put me down. Im begging you." Seeming afraid that Jason Williams wasnt satisfied, she even kissed him on the cheek. Muah~ Jason Williams nodded in satisfaction and put Kira down. Jason Williams deeply understood that getting a pretty virgin on the RV wasnt his goal; he wanted Favor Points. So, the emotional development stage was very important. Kira got off Jason Williams with a blush on her face, then immediately distanced herself from Jason Williams, tidying her messy clothes. It wasnt until the RV stopped in front of them that Kira got her composure back. The door opened. Ellie and Jenna immediately jumped out of the RV to greet them. "Jason, welcome back." Ellie was the first to step forward and hug Jason Williams, then glanced at Kira out of the corner of her eye. Seeing Kiras perfect, gym-honed body, like a feral badass, Ellie came to a conclusion. She couldnt fight this woman. Her little body couldnt beat a badass. Jason Williams smiled and looked at Ellie. "How was your rest?" Ellie and Jenna had been frightened on the bus, so they hadnt gotten any good rest. Now that they had the RV as a safe haven, they could naturally rest peacefully, relieving the fatigue and mental stress of the past two days. Ellies face turned red, and she nodded immediately. "I rested well, Jason." Moreover, after Jason Williams left, she and Chloe got along well and had already agreed to form an alliance together. "Jason." Jenna, with a gentle smile, walked up to Jason Williams to greet him. Jason Williams rubbed Jenna''s little head and asked, "How was your rest?" "Um, very good." Jenna replied softly, her voice like a mosquito''s buzz. Jason Williams was very gentle that day. And he hadnt overly collected Favor Points. She had recovered well in the afternoon. At this time, Chloe also parked the RV and came down to greet everyone. When she saw Kira, Chloe couldn''t help but light up, secretly giving Jason Williams a thumbs-up. She had finally met a real, athletic beauty. Kira felt some pressure looking at the three girls. Any one of them could leave Sarah Jones in the dust. Compared to her, the former campus belle, they were just as stunning. As expected, the competition in a powerful mans harem was fierce. Kira secretly hated herself for not having watched any harem TV series or read any novels. She would be at a great disadvantage in the RV in the future. With her tomboyish personality, she didn''t know how to scheme and plot. Wouldnt the ending be that she was framed and banished to the Cold Palace? Jason Williams had no idea what Kira was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely laugh at this old classmate. His harem might not have much scheming. Although Chloe was the first wife, she welcomed the other sisters, so how could she scheme? The remaining Jenna, Ellie, Lily Young, and Sophie all had no ulterior motives. As long as you didn''t bully them, they wouldn''t bully anyone. The only scheming woman left was Tiffany Wilson. But in this environment without scheming, would Tiffany Wilson still use her schemes and tactics? As for whether other scheming women would get on the RV in the future, Jason Williams didn''t know, but the current harem was definitely harmonious. It was very windy outside. So, Jason Williams brought the girls into the RV before introducing each other. 33 - friendships in Harem After Jason Williams introduced the women, Kira immediately recognized Chloe as the eldest sister. This was what Jason Williams had specifically requested. As the first wife, Chloe had to be recognized as the eldest sister by any sister who joined in the future. There had to be a female head of household to keep things in order; otherwise, the backstabbing would be amplified and could even affect their survival. Jason Williams naturally gave this opportunity to Chloe. He allowed her to openly manage all the women. Jason Williams would use Favor Points to secretly monitor the women, preventing anyone from betraying them. Besides Chloe, the other women addressed each other as sisters according to their age. At Jason Williamss suggestion, the four women sat around the sofa chatting, getting to know each other better. Jason Williams went to the bathroom to take a good shower. On the sofa. Ellie, eyes wide, looked at Kira. "Kira, you and Jason are college classmates? Thats such a coincidence!" Kira nodded. It was a coincidence. She never thought that one day Jason Williams would come to save her and that she would become Jason Williamss woman. Jenna looked at Kira with envy. "Kira, do you and Jason have any fun stories from college? Tell us about them!" They naturally wanted to hear the love story of Jason Williams and Kira and learn about Jason''s past. Kira looked awkward. She wasn''t familiar with Jason Williams back in college. They had only said a few words to each other in all those years. She couldn''t exactly share the funny story of Jason Williams being dumped by Sarah Jones with her sisters. After thinking for a moment, Kira decided to tell the truth about her relationship with Jason Williams. "I didnt have much contact with Jason back in college, so I dont know much about him either." Ellie and the others looked disappointed. They thought there would be some romantic story, but they didn''t expect the two to be strangers before. What a letdown. At this time, Chloe asked, "Kira, are you an athlete? Your muscle definition is so beautiful." Ellie and Jenna nodded in agreement. The three women looked at Kira with not only envy but also admiration. As women, they knew very well how difficult it was to build such a fit body. Kira''s figure looked so strong, much better than their skinny arms and legs. If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. "I just work out to keep in shape. I''m just interested in it," Kira explained. She wasn''t a professional bodybuilder; otherwise, her body wouldn''t look so slender, like a badass. Kira''s figure looked more like a runners. Especially with her tan skin, people would believe it if she said she was a professional athlete. Chloe said excitedly: "Can I touch them?" "Of course." Kira agreed readily. Chloes eyes lit up, and she immediately went forward to touch Kiras body. To let Chloe feel it more clearly, Kira tensed her arms to make her muscles stand out. "Wow, theres really no fat at all. Oh my gosh, Kira, you even have abs" "Kira, I want to touch too" "Me me too." Ellie and Jenna also stepped forward to touch her. They were also curious about how such an athletic body was built. The three women swarmed around Kira, touching her everywhere. Kira was a little embarrassed. Shouldn''t there be insults and backstabbing between harem members? Why were they all touching her body with admiration? Chloe restrained herself and didnt touch randomly, so Kira wasnt offended. For Kira, she ate all kinds of fat-reducing meals and worked hard to exercise, just to gain admiring glances. And the three women''s admiration made Kira feel much closer to them. After getting closer, the four women sat together, whispering their secrets. Kiras face turned red with embarrassment after hearing them. Even a tomboy like her couldn''t accept this topic. "N-no way. It''s too embarrassing. Can you guys excuse yourselves for a moment?" The women whispered more secrets, making Kira feel a little overwhelmed. Especially Chloe and Ellie, working together, actually made Kira feel tempted. Jenna, who was sitting to the side, had a red face, but her firm gaze already showed her determination. Kira bit her lip, looked at the three sisters'' expectant gazes, and nodded in agreement. "Okay, then Ill leave it to you sisters." At this time, Jason Williams walked out of the bathroom, wiping his hair. He was stunned when he saw the four women sitting together so intimately. What was going on? Had the four women become good sisters in the time it took him to take a shower? Was Chloe so skillful, or did Kira know how to win people over? Jason Williams didn''t know that it was because of him that the sisters had formed a close alliance. However, Jason Williams didnt ask the four women, as he wanted to give them some private space. Jason Williams found an empty seat on the sofa and sat down. Seeing the four women looking at him, Kira, Ellie, and Jenna were blushing, while Chloe kept winking at him, as if she had settled something. "Looks like you guys are getting along well." The four women looked at each other. All except Chloe were blushing. Jason Williams looked at the four women with satisfaction. "It''s a good thing that you can get along so well. This world is too dangerous." "There will be times when I cant take care of you. When you encounter danger, your sisters will be the most reliable partners by your side." Hearing what Jason Williams said, the women felt even closer to each other. They knew Jason Williams was right. Jason Williams would protect them, but Jason Williams was only one person, and there would always be times when he had to leave, like today. Then they could rely on their sisters as teammates. In particular, Kira deeply understood what Jason Williams said. She had spent nearly two days on the bus and deeply realized the importance of teamwork. At this moment, Kira was actually glad that she had agreed to Chloe and the other women''s idea of forming an alliance. Kira had already decided in her heart to have a good relationship with her sisters. Jason Williams continued: "Ive decided that tomorrow, I wont be going to the bus to look for people for the time being. Starting tomorrow, I will personally train you to fight and kill monsters." "You need to improve your strength as soon as possible." Chloe frowned and asked, "Hubby, what about Sophie and Lily? Are we going to make them wait on the bus for a few more days?" Jason Williams nodded helplessly. "They have our support on the bus. As long as they don''t go looking for treasure chests, theyll be safe." "What''s truly dangerous is us." Starting from the fourth day, D-Rank pursuers would descend on the highway. The pursuers wouldnt pursue buses but would only pursue vehicles driven by car owners. At the same time, monsters would come up to the highway at night to attack. In short, after the third day, everyone''s safe period would be over. So Jason Williams wanted to take advantage of the safety of tomorrow to take the four women to kill monsters and increase their combat experience. As for Lily Young and the others, Jason Williams decided to take the opportunity to find Lily Young and the others and bring them to the RV when the next world started. If he was lucky, he might even find other pretty virgins in the next world. 34 - Fourfold oath of fealty "Do you guys remember when we just left the city yesterday, the system prompted that pursuers would arrive in three days?" Jason Williams reminded the women. The women nodded to show that they remembered, then immediately realized that this message was an important warning. Just like before when they were looking for transportation in the city, the important prompt was that monsters would arrive in an hour. The women, reminded by Jason Williams, also knew that danger would come in the future. Chloe didnt say anything more. She believed that Jason Williams wouldn''t abandon Sophie. Then Jason Williams sorted out today''s gains. First, he robbed a lot of food and sundries in the name of David Lee. The food goes without saying. Among the sundries were salt, sugar, brand-new clothes and socks, and some toiletries such as shower gel and shampoo. Compared to yesterday, when the treasure chests were basically all food, today''s treasure chests could yield some sundries. In addition, Jason Williams also grabbed four blueprints: a 0-star vehicle fuel tank, a 0-star vehicle alarm, as well as small hand crossbow blueprints and towel blueprints. The vehicle fuel tank blueprint had been combined and installed by Jason Williams at noon. Then Jason Williams combined and installed the vehicle alarm blueprint he grabbed in the afternoon. In this way, Jason Williamss RV was two 0-star blueprints away from being upgraded to 1-star. Jason Williams was looking forward to what abilities would be unlocked after the RV was upgraded to 1-star. As for the small hand crossbow blueprint, Jason Williams also made four of them, ready for the women on the RV to use tomorrow. In addition to the blueprints, Jason Williams also unexpectedly grabbed twenty seeds. The seeds were planted at noon and had already sprouted in the afternoon, which was very magical. Jason Williams estimated that they would reach maturity in about two or three days, and then he would harvest ten pounds of rice and flour every day. This was Jason Williamss harvest for the day. However, Jason Williams wasnt satisfied. What really made him rich wasnt robbing. But rather selling items through the Group Chat App and reaping the wealth of everyone. So Jason Williams looked at the four women. "Next, I need you to sell some items." Compared to Kira and the others who didn''t understand anything, Chloe understood what Jason Williams wanted to do, which was to reap the wealth of everyone in the channel. So Chloe explained the RVs abilities to the other three women. The three women were overjoyed after hearing this. If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. With the ability to record blueprints, wouldn''t they be guaranteed food and drink? Then the three women learned that another ability of Jason Williams was to reward Attribute Orbs after collecting "vehicle fare" from virgins, and they understood why they were able to get on the RV. Especially Kira, whose heart was filled with mixed feelings. At this time, Jason Williams said, "I collected "vehicle fare" from you guys to get on the RV, and I do have the idea of earning Attribute Orbs." "But you arent my tools for earning Attribute Orbs, nor are you my slaves for venting desire. I truly treat you as my women." "Even if there is danger in the future, I wont abandon you and run away alone. I hope we can survive together in this world." "You will be my wives from now on. If you don''t betray me, I won''t betray you." Jason Williamss words were very sincere and immediately received three Favor Point prompts. Chloes Favor Points +7 Ellies Favor Points +5 Jennas Favor Points +5 Only Kira didn''t receive a Favor Point prompt, because Jason Williams hadn''t collected her "vehicle fare" yet. Ellie was the first to express her attitude and immediately jumped into Jason Williamss arms, kissing him on the cheek. "I believe in Jason. Ellie will never betray Jason." Jason Williams hugged Ellie, truly liking this tsundere girl with pigtails. Jenna also quickly stated, "I will never betray Jason either." "I won''t betray you Hubby either." Chloe also firmly said. Jason Williams was the only man she had fallen in love with, and she wouldn''t betray Jason even if she died. Finally, Kira also nodded at Jason Williams. "I won''t betray you either." Kira knew that she would become Jason Williamss woman tonight, so she would have no reason to betray Jason in the future. Even if her ex-boyfriend appeared, she wouldn''t betray him. Although Kira had made vows with her ex-boyfriend, there was no marital relationship between them. If it were a peaceful world, she would naturally abide by the agreement. But in this Escape World, she could only rely on Jason Williams to survive. Therefore, Kira would naturally give up her past love and become Jason Williamss loyal woman. Moreover, in Kiras opinion, she and Jason Williams were old classmates. Chloe and the others had only known Jason Williams for a day or two, so their relationship was nowhere near as close as hers and Jason''s. When they were in school, one was the campus heartthrob and the other was the campus belle. Most people thought there would be some scandal between them. Kira naturally had a good impression of Jason Williams. But Jason Williams didn''t pay attention to her at all when they were in school, so she couldn''t possibly chase after Jason like a simp. As a result, Sarah Jones took the opportunity and succeeded in chasing after Jason Williams. Then Sarah Jones came to Kira''s dorm room to show off, making her furious. Kira wondered what made her worse than Sarah Jones. Instead of chasing after the campus belle, he dated that bitch Sarah Jones. She was so angry that she didn''t sleep well for several nights. In short, Kira had a good impression of Jason Williams in her heart. But there was no fate between them when they were in school, but in the Escape World, fate unexpectedly came. Jason Williams smiled and looked at the women. "I believe you." Then Jason Williams arranged for the women to sell items. Chloe was still selling wooden spears. The cost of a wooden spear was 5 Escape Coins, and the profit was 15 Escape Coins. Yesterday, Chloe sold more than six hundred wooden spears. In a market of more than eight thousand people, there were still many people without weapons. Today was different from yesterday. Many people had become rich and could definitely afford wooden spears. So Chloe would sell more wooden spears today. Among the remaining recorded blueprints, Jason Williams had Ellie sell vehicle alarms. The cost of an alarm was 20 Escape Coins, and Jason Williams decided to earn a triple profit, so he would sell it for 88 Escape Coins. He could earn 68 Escape Coins by selling one. As long as car owners saw the vehicle alarm, they would want to buy one, and Jason Williams wasn''t worried about not having a market. Then Jason Williams had Jenna sell towels, toilet paper, sanitary napkins, and lighters. The cost price of these four small items was 1 Escape Coin each, and they were sold for 5 Escape Coins each. Small profits but quick turnover. Finally, Jason Williams had Kira sell 1-star combat boots. 1-star combat boots were definitely high-end equipment in the current stage. They could increase E-Rank speed to E+, and E+ Rank speed to D-. As long as the effect was posted in the Group Chat App, no one wouldn''t want to buy a pair. The cost price of the boots was 100 Escape Coins, and Jason Williams decided to sell them for 288 Escape Coins. He could accept other items at a discounted price. He could also accept high-level blueprints in exchange. In short, the items Jason Williams arranged for the women to sell included everything from low-end products to high-end equipment. Everyone in this area would become the wealth harvested by Jason Williams. 35 - More people, more wealth Inside the van. Ever since David Lee and the others fled the city yesterday, the van quickly ran out of gas. So, besides getting a 2-star blueprint, they got nothing on the first day. But on the second day, after the system rewarded them with 500 units of gasoline based on the number of people in the car, David Lees team completely turned things around. "Hahaha, we really had a great harvest today." "Yeah, we have three blueprints alone." "There are a lot of other resources too. We can sell some of the unnecessary ones." At this time, David Lee and the others in the van were excitedly sorting out today''s harvest, which was a pile of resources in front of them. Relying on the 500 units of gasoline, they found more than forty treasure chests today, which was a huge profit. David Lee understood the benefits of having more people in the car. The more people in the car, the more gasoline was rewarded, and the more resources could be found. His car had five people, so the advantage naturally became apparent. "Boss, I suggest we buy some weapons so we''ll be confident in taking down Bronze Chests when we encounter them again tomorrow," Monty suggested. Monty was one of the two men who got on the van in the beginning. Since the Beautiful sisters got on the car, David Lees status soared, so Monty and Hank immediately recognized David Lee as their boss. "Okay." David Lee was in a good mood and directly agreed to Monty''s proposal. Today, they encountered several Bronze Chests, but because they couldn''t lure away the Goblins, they couldn''t steal anything from the chests. If they had weapons, they would be confident in killing the Goblins. At this time, Hank, another man who was paying attention to the system, immediately reminded, "Boss, someone in the channel is selling wooden spears for 20 Escape Coins each." David Lee and the others in the car immediately opened the system to check. Sure enough, they saw someone selling wooden spears in the channel. There were 50 spears in stock, first come, first served. The chubby sister Beautiful immediately urged David Lee, "Hubby, quickly buy the wooden spears, don''t let others buy them all." "Sister is right. There must be many people today who have obtained a lot of resources like us. Don''t let them buy all the wooden spears," sister sisters agreed. Their teams most needed resource was weapons. As long as they had weapons, they would dare to fight the Bronze Chests guarded by Goblins tomorrow. And David Lee, seeing that the person selling the wooden spears was a beautiful woman, couldn''t help but have his eyes light up. The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. Compared to the Beautiful sisters next to him, this beauty was at the other extreme. One was so beautiful that it was outrageous, and the other two were so ugly that it was hopeless. He had been paying attention to this beauty selling wooden spears yesterday. But yesterday, he had limited resources and couldn''t afford a single wooden spear, but today was different. If he spent more money, would he be favored by the beauty? David Lee immediately messaged Chloe, wanting to buy five wooden spears generously. On the other side. Chloe felt disgusted when she saw David Lees avatar. How could there be such an ugly and obscene fatso? In the past, she wouldnt have paid attention to David Lee at all. But in order to earn Escape Coins for her Hubby, she still endured her discomfort and traded five wooden spears with David Lee. As for the message from David Lee wanting to add her as a friend, Chloe ignored it. On the other side. After trading five wooden spears, David Lee found that Chloe wasn''t paying attention to him anymore, and even his friend request was rejected. "Damn it, bad review. The seller''s service is not thoughtful at all, doesn''t even add a friend." Compared to David Lee''s anger, the others in the car were pleasantly surprised to see the five wooden spears. When they encountered Bronze Chests again tomorrow, each of them would have a wooden spear and would be able to stab the Goblins to death. David Lee looked at the five extra wooden spears in his hand and felt a pain in his heart. These five wooden spears cost him 100 Escape Coins, and he lost most of his savings. David Lee could only suppress his displeasure and continue to browse the Group Chat App. As a result, another beauty selling things attracted his attention. This was a small, blonde-haired, blue-eyed beauty, a mixed-race loli. David Lees saliva was drooling out. With the Beautiful sisters by his side, he saw any woman as beautiful as a fairy. Not to mention a blonde-haired, blue-eyed mixed-race loli. Looking at the items being sold by the mixed-race loli Ellie, it was a 0-star vehicle alarm for 88 Escape Coins? That was a little expensive. David Lee had two 0-star vehicle blueprints and one 2-star vehicle blueprint. He knew that the production cost of a 0-star vehicle blueprint was only 20 Escape Coins, so selling it for 88 Escape Coins was too much. But looking at the information of the vehicle alarm, it was quite useful. Preventing monster attacks at night. Would monsters attack at night? David Lee was shocked and immediately felt that this vehicle alarm was very useful. Moreover, David Lee knew that as long as his vehicle had five 0-star vehicle equipment installed, it would be upgraded to 1-star. David Lee had already installed two 0-star vehicle equipment, and buying this vehicle alarm would make it three 0-star vehicle equipment. Buy! This vehicle alarm must be bought. David Lee immediately messaged Ellie, saying that he wanted to buy the vehicle alarm. But he only had 45 Escape Coins in his hand, so he could only use other resources to offset the price. On the other side. Ellie didnt care when she saw that the obscene ugly fatso wanted to buy the alarm, but when she saw that the other person''s name was David Lee, she was stunned. Jason Williams had used the name David Lee on the bus today. Jason Williams also said that David Lee was his enemy. "Jason, I found your enemy. He wants to buy an alarm," Ellie immediately sat in Jason Williamss arms and showed Jason Williams her system panel. Jason Williams hugged Ellie, glanced at the system panel, and found that it was indeed David Lee. This person wanted to buy an alarm, so he had to rip him off. "Ellie, this David Lee is extremely horny. If you compliment him a few times, he''ll buy the alarm at a high price" On the side, Chloe and the other women also gathered around. "Oh, its this ugly fatso. He just bought five wooden spears from me," Chloe exclaimed. She didn''t know that Jason Williams had a feud with David Lee. So when David Lee bought the wooden spears, she didnt raise the price of the wooden spears. Seeing that Chloe didn''t know who David Lee was, Jenna told Chloe that Jason Williams had used David Lees name to do bad things on the bus. Chloe was confused and didn''t understand when this fatso had offended Jason Williams. On the other side. A lewd smile appeared on David Lee''s fat face. Because Ellie had already praised him for being so rich that he could afford an alarm. David Lee was now trying to save face and had to buy the alarm. So, under the puzzled gazes of the Beautiful sisters, David Lee found four buckets of instant noodles, four pieces of bread, plus the 45 Escape Coins in his hand, to buy the alarm. However, the transaction didnt happen. At this time, Ellie sent him a message. "It won''t work, David. There''s only one alarm left, and someone is offering a higher price for it." 36 - David Lee was cheated "What!?" David Lee was shocked. Someone was trying to snatch his alarm system right out from under him. He didn''t doubt Ellie''s claim that there was only one alarm system left. Blueprints only allow for a limited number of creations, and a vehicle-mounted device like an alarm was bound to be in high demand. If any were left, it wouldn''t be many. So, David immediately replied to Ellie: "Sis, so someone''s offering a high price? Big deal. It''s not like I can''t match it. I''ll throw in extra supplies. Sell me that alarm." After sending the message, David straightened his back. He wanted to prove to the cute little girl on the other end that he had serious capital. Ellie sent another message: "Davey, you really shouldn''t buy it. Someone''s willing to pay a lot for the alarm. You can''t compete with that." Ellie calling him "Davey" had him hooked; he wasn''t even thinking if she was trying to rip him off anymore. "Ellie, how about I add a case of orange juice?" David was pulling out the good stuff now. A case of orange juice wasn''t cheap. Surely that would seal the deal. Just when David thought Ellie would sell him the alarm, she messaged: "Davey, someone offered 130 Escape Coins for the alarm. You just can''t beat that!" David''s face darkened. Who was this idiot throwing around so much money for a single alarm? But David didn''t want to lose face in front of Ellie, so he had to raise his offer. Gritting his teeth, he added four loaves of bread. This time, Ellie was silent for a moment before finally agreeing to the trade. So, David Lee traded 45 Escape Coins, four packs of ramen, eight loaves of bread, and a case of orange juice for an alarm system. After the transaction went through, David felt a nagging unease. This deal seemed a little one-sided. Especially the Beautiful sisters. They were stunned when they saw David trade a mountain of supplies for a simple alarm. "David Lee, you traded all that food for an alarm?" Beautiful sister questioned, her voice tight with anger. David rolled his eyes. "You don''t get it. My van needs upgrades, and this alarm is essential." Seeing this, her sister Beautiful quickly tried to calm her down, telling her not to get angry. Spending a few extra supplies wasn''t a big deal. They weren''t exactly short on resources now. They could always find more chests tomorrow. David ignored the Beautiful sisters and chatted with Ellie for a few more minutes, adding her as a friend. Ellie said she''d sell him any good stuff she found in the future. This book''s true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience. David felt a surge of warmth. Ellie was such a good girl. If only he could convince her to be his wife and live in his van. David resolved to get stronger and gather more resources, so one day he could meet Ellie and bring her back to his van. David continued browsing the chat channel, looking for anything that could boost his strength. He didn''t want to die fighting goblins tomorrow. Soon, another beautiful woman selling items caught his eye. There were so many hot girls on the channel today. "This one''s even athletic. Nice heh heh heh" Seeing the picture of the girl, David''s mood instantly improved. He even forgot how much he''d overpaid for that alarm. He checked out what the athletic beauty was selling. 1-Star Combat Boots? Reading the boots'' stats, David felt a jolt of excitement. They boosted speed. Wearing these, his speed would jump to E+ Rank. Even goblins couldn''t catch him. David wanted those boots immediately. This equipment gave a bigger boost than his van. The van only gave him an E-Rank boost to constitution, while the boots would give him E+ Rank speed. He was dying to have them. Then he saw the price: 288 Escape Coins. Uh oh, he couldn''t afford that. But then he noticed the note at the bottom: trades for blueprints accepted. David had blueprints! But common blueprints wouldn''t be enough for these boots. The only blueprint he had that might work was that 2-Star vehicle blueprint. David hesitated. Should he make the trade? This 2-Star vehicle blueprint was the best thing they''d gotten from the bronze chest yesterday. With a grimace, David decided to do it. The crafting cost for a 2-Star item was 2000 Escape Coins. He wouldn''t be able to afford that anytime soon. It was better to get something practical like the boots. David immediately contacted the beauty named Kira. Meanwhile, on the other side Kiras eyes lit up when she received David Lee''s private message. "Jason, David Lee contacted me. He wants to trade the blueprint for the boots." "Oh?" Jason was still feeling like he hadn''t screwed David over enough. Kira had just given him another pleasant surprise. He wouldn''t let David Lee get away with any money. He had to get him penniless. Jason excitedly slapped his thigh. "Come here, Kira, sit on my lap. Let''s screw David Lee together." Kira blushed. Seeing her three sisters staring at her, she felt embarrassed. Ellie saw Kira''s discomfort and gave her a little push from behind. "Go on, Kira! Hehe" Kira was awkwardly pushed in front of Jason and reluctantly sat on his lap. Jason put his arms around Kira, smirking. "Kira, you used to be so straightforward. Why are you being so shy now?" Kira didn''t say anything, but pinched Jason''s waist hard. "Ow!" Jason felt a sharp pain in his side. He glanced at Kira, who glared at him, telling him not to say anything stupid. If she lost face in front of her sisters, she''d get back at him. Jason smiled silently, while his hands roamed. Who wouldn''t want to touch the athletic body of this badass? Kira, afraid of losing face in front of her sisters, could only endure the wandering hands as she opened the system and showed Jason David Lee''s private message. Jason''s eyes widened when he saw the blueprint that David had sent. [Mobile Kitchen]: 2-Star Vehicle Equipment. Includes various cookware, tableware, cooking equipment, stoves, and other kitchen supplies. Number of times the blueprint can be crafted: 1 Crafting Cost: 2000 Escape Coins Seeing the Mobile Kitchen information, Jason knew this blueprint was as good as the Mobile Bathroom. He had to have this blueprint. If it was anyone else, Jason would have traded the boots right away. But David Lee was his enemy. His goal was to bleed him dry, so he had to plan this carefully. Back on David''s side David was getting impatient. Kira hadn''t replied to his message yet. What if the boots were already gone? David sent another message, asking: "Hey, are you still selling those boots? If not, just say so. Don''t waste my time." After sending the message, David opened Kira''s profile picture and started fantasizing. This girl was gorgeous, top-tier. And with that athletic build, David was tempted to jerk off right then and there. But with the Beautiful sisters and Mark Johnson, Monty, Hank and Son-Bro in the van, he didn''t have any privacy. He''d just have to admire the picture for now. Just then, Kira replied 37 - The Boot Auction Kira finally responded, "The only combat boots left are the ones I''m wearing. And someone already has a hold on them. If you want to buy them one blueprint isn''t going to cut it." Kira''s sales tactics were different from Ellie''s. She sounded perfectly reasonable, giving David Lee the power to decide. As long as David took the bait, he would fall into Jason''s trap, step by step. Someone already has a hold on them? David frowned when he saw the message. Kira''s meaning was clear: if he wanted the boots, he had to outbid the other guy. Originally, David was thinking of giving up. But the thought of facing goblins tomorrow left him feeling uneasy. If he had boots that boosted his speed, he''d basically be invincible. David decided to buy them! He had to buy them! David figured his life was the most important thing, no matter what. If he died at the hands of those goblins, it wouldn''t matter how many supplies he had. Plus, the chance to buy these boots was rare. Once it was gone, it was gone. David steeled his resolve and replied to Kira that he wanted to buy the boots. Meanwhile, on the other side Jason, with his arm around Kira, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that David had taken the bait. He was really worried David would think they were too expensive and back out. Following Jason''s instructions, Kira sent another message to David. "Besides that 2-Star blueprint, all you need to add is 20 Escape Coins." David was surprised. He hadn''t expected to buy the boots by adding just 20 Escape Coins. He thought they''d be much more expensive. But Kira''s terms were no bartering with supplies. Only Escape Coins, and the deal had to be done quickly, or she''d sell them to someone else. This stumped David. He had spent all his Escape Coins and only had supplies left. Getting 20 Escape Coins wouldn''t be hard C he just had to sell some stuff. But Kira wanted a quick transaction. Selling items on the channel wouldn''t leave enough time. As David wracked his brain, trying to figure out how to quickly get his hands on some Escape Coins, Ellie flashed into his mind. He could sell supplies to Ellie! They had just added each other as friends. With that thought, David immediately contacted Ellie. "Ellie, do you have any extra Escape Coins? I want to trade some supplies for them." Ellie replied quickly, as if she''d been waiting for him. "Sure, Davey! How many Escape Coins do you need?" The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. David felt a surge of warmth. She was such a good girl, replying right away and showering him with attention, without a care for his appearance. David was just about to send a message asking for 20 Escape Coins when Kira suddenly messaged him, saying the boots had gone up in price. He''d have to add at least 40 Escape Coins to buy them now. "What? How did they go up in price?" David immediately questioned Kira. 40 Escape Coins was no small amount. That could buy a lot of supplies. Kira replied matter-of-factly, "The person bidding against you is willing to pay 40 more Escape Coins. If you can''t afford it, I''ll sell them to him." David cursed Kira in his mind. "Bitch. You have no business ethics! If I ever see you again, I''ll drag you into my van and make you my slave." David was starting to have second thoughts. He was beginning to not want the boots. Was he really going to sell all his stuff for a pair of boots? Just then, Ellie messaged him, urging, "Davey, how many Escape Coins do you need?" David quickly replied apologetically, "Ellie, sorry, I don''t need Escape Coins anymore." "Huh? Davey, are you playing with me? I don''t have time to chat let''s just delete each other as friends." Ellie sounded annoyed at David for wasting her time, immediately suggesting they unfriend each other. David''s expression changed drastically. He had finally found a pretty girl who didn''t care about his looks. It would be a shame to lose her. "Wait, Ellie, I''ll do it!" "How many?" Ellie asked curtly. Seeing that Ellie had only sent three words, David panicked. Before, Ellie''s messages always had "Davey" in them. She must be mad now. What should he do? David was originally going to ask for 10 Escape Coins as a token, but he was worried Ellie wouldn''t be happy with that. Just then, Kira asked David if he still wanted the boots. If he didn''t, she''d sell them to someone else. Pressed by both women, David made a decision. Buy! David simply replied with that one word. Then, David sent Ellie two blueprints, asking how many Escape Coins she''d give him for them. Both were 0-Star vehicle blueprints. One was for headlights, and the other was for car windows. Ellie gave him a price: "20 Escape Coins for the car window blueprint. I don''t need the headlight blueprint. I already have it." Only 20 Escape Coins? And she didn''t want the headlight blueprint. David sighed. He sold some useless junk from inside the van to Ellie. A men''s winter coat, three fleece blankets, two tubes of toothpaste, several toothbrushes, and a desk lamp. All these were junk items David had gotten from the chests today. Especially the three blankets. They were thick and plush, good enough to use as comforters. He had been planning to sleep comfortably with those blankets tonight, but now he was selling them all to Ellie. In the end, combined with the car window blueprint, he got 50 Escape Coins. Inside the van, the Beautiful sisters and Monty, Mark Johnson, Hank and Son-Bro were all looking at David strangely. Was David crazy? Did he not care about the future? Mark Johnson was the first to snap out of it. He patted Monty and the Beautiful sisters, grabbed a loaf of bread, and started eating. The others understood. They all understood what Mark Johnson meant. Quickly eat some food before David sold all of it, too. The others all grabbed food and began to eat. As for David, after getting 50 Escape Coins, he didn''t immediately buy the boots. Because he had already raised the price, now he had to wait to see if the competitor would raise it again. David was cursing up a storm in his mind. He felt like he was getting ripped off, but he couldn''t figure out what the problem was. He could only wait. A moment later, Kira sent David a message that filled him with despair. "That guy is willing to pay 80 Escape Coins." David would have to pay over 80 Escape Coins to buy the boots. If David hadn''t bought the wooden spear and alarm, he wouldn''t have been afraid of raising the price by 80 Escape Coins, or even 100. But David really didn''t have much left. He couldn''t sell the wooden spear and the alarm, could he? Then he would really be a sucker. But David couldn''t bring himself to give up on buying the boots. He had traded all that junk just to get those 50 Escape Coins. David could only look at the remaining food 38 - David Lee forced out David Lee now faced only one path: sell off the remaining food, convert it to Escape Coins, and finally buy those combat boots. David refused to believe that he couldn''t buy the boots once he sold the food. The Beautiful sisters and the two others saw David pull out all the food and open his system, clearly messaging someone. They knew exactly what he was up to. Older sister Beautiful coldly warned, "David Lee, I don''t know what you''re trying to buy, but I do know we don''t need anything." "If you sell that food, we''ll only have five wooden spears left." "Ugh, so annoying. If the food''s gone, we can find more tomorrow," David said impatiently. This van was his to command! What right did Beautiful have to tell him what to do? David ignored the Beautiful sisters'' sour expressions and contacted Ellie to sell the food for Escape Coins. Beautiful clenched her fists, realizing what kind of person David Lee truly was. She and her sister exchanged glances, understanding each other''s thoughts. However, they decided to give David one more chance. After all, he was their man. Meanwhile, Mark Johnson and Monty kept quiet. They were the lowest on the totem pole in the van. They were content just to get something to eat. Thank goodness they had each eaten a portion earlier, or they''d be going to bed hungry. On the other side, David sold all the remaining food to Ellie. He got another 50 Escape Coins in the end. "This time, I can definitely buy those boots," David thought to himself. He contacted Kira again. "This time, I''m offering 100 Escape Coins. You''ll sell me the boots, right?" Kira didn''t reply immediately. She waited a moment before responding, "Alright, no one else can afford to pay more. The boots are yours." David was overjoyed. He immediately traded the 2-Star Mobile Kitchen blueprint and 100 Escape Coins. Meanwhile, Jason had watched David contact Ellie and trade a mountain of food for Escape Coins. He knew David was just about broke from being scammed. So, Jason crafted a small pair of combat boots. David''s feet definitely wouldn''t fit in these. They were too small, only fit for a woman. Then, Jason rummaged through the pile of food, eventually finding a can of stinky tofu. Someone had opened a chest and gotten a special can of stinky tofu, which Chloe had then traded for with a wooden spear. This wasn''t just any stinky tofu; it was specially stinky. Jason grinned and grabbed a paper towel, dipping it into the stinky tofu juice and wiping it all over the inside of the boots. After wiping them, Jason even lowered his head and took a sniff. This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source. "Gah!" Jason dry-heaved. This smell was something else. Holding his nose, Jason took the boots to Kira. The four women on the couch frowned. They had seen Jason wipe the boots with stinky tofu juice. Kira''s face darkened. She realized why Jason had told her to tell David that the only boots left were the ones she was wearing. He was selling these boots to David with the claim that she had worn them. David would probably think the stench was foot odor. "Jason, it''s fine to sell these boots, but why did you have to claim they were mine? Eugh" Jason got close with the boots in hand, and Kira couldn''t help but gag. The smell was strong even from two or three yards away. Chloe and the other two girls covered their noses and mouths, speechless at Jason''s antics. Jason held the boots in one hand and put his arm around Kira, coaxing her sweetly. Kira tried to run, but Jason held her tightly. Reluctantly, Kira followed Jason''s instructions and traded the boots to David. She had to get these boots away from her, or she was going to be sick from the stench. Back in the van, David finally had a pair of combat boots in his hand after the trade. But the next moment David''s face twisted in agony. Damn, were these boots dredged up from a sewer? They stank so bad. David lowered his head and sniffed, confirming that the boots were the source of the smell. "Gah!" The smell immediately assaulted David''s senses, making him dizzy. Then, David remembered that these boots were worn by Kira. Could this be her foot odor? David couldn''t resist taking another sniff. "Gah!" This time, a hint of intoxication and enjoyment appeared on David''s face, underneath the agony. This perverted scene was witnessed by the Beautiful sisters, Mark Johnson, Monty, Hank and Son-Bro. They also smelled the foul odor. "Gah! David Lee, what the hell did you buy? It stinks!" "Sis, I can''t take it let''s beat him up!" The Beautiful sisters finally couldn''t take it anymore and began to beat David inside the van. Even Mark Johnson and Monty couldn''t sit still and joined in. Four people attacked at once. Sure, David might own the van, but he couldn''t act like such a pervert! They could put up with him wasting all the supplies, but he couldn''t bring such a disgusting pair of stinky boots into the van. Most importantly, what was with that look of enjoyment on his face? The four people, holding their noses, beat David mercilessly. "Bastards, how dare you hit me? I''m the owner of this van!" David yelled angrily, trying to fight back. But he was no match for the four of them. In the scuffle, the beat-up van almost overturned. While being beaten, David suddenly remembered that he had 1-Star combat boots. Wearing them would boost his speed to E+ Rank. So, while taking the beating, David grabbed the boots and tried to put them on. The next moment, he froze. His feet wouldn''t fit in the boots. They were the wrong size! Beautiful, seeing David holding the boots in a daze, was infuriated. She snatched the boots away and threw them out of the van. The four people continued to beat David. This fat bastard''s constitution was E-Rank; he was built to take a beating. It would take a while for the four of them to vent their anger. From this day on, the Beautiful sisters would be in charge of this van. David Lee had completely lost his power. Mark Johnson and Monty would never listen to that swindler David Lee again. On the other side, Kira and the girls opened the windows of the RV. If they didn''t air out the stench, the RV would be uninhabitable. Chloe complained to Jason, "Honey, if you''re going to do that again, can you do it outside? It stinks!" Jason apologized to the girls. He hadn''t thought much about it at the time, but he really should have done that outside. Kira rolled her eyes. As if there would be a next time. She wanted to throw away that can of stinky tofu, but Jason had carefully saved it. It seemed like he wanted to keep it for scamming someone else in the future. Kira could only pray that next time, he wouldn''t use her foot odor as an excuse. Inside the RV, after the air circulated, the stench quickly dissipated. Chloe and the girls sat back on the couch, selling wooden spears and other items. Jason held the two blueprints he had scammed from David Lee. One was a 0-Star car window blueprint, and the other was a 2-Star Mobile Kitchen blueprint. Jason first crafted and installed the car window blueprint. Jason now had four 0-Star vehicle upgrades. He only needed one more 0-Star vehicle upgrade to meet the conditions for upgrading the RV to 1-Star. 39 - Spacious Kitchen After Jason installed the car window, he looked at the remaining Mobile Kitchen blueprint. The RV was cramped and messy, with various supplies that Chloe and the girls had traded for piled everywhere. There was barely room to stand. They needed to free up some space to store supplies. The Mobile Kitchen was perfect for that. So, Jason spent 2000 Escape Coins and crafted the Mobile Kitchen. A door materialized inside the RV. Jason turned to the girls on the couch. "I crafted the kitchen. Do you want to take a look?" "Yes!" Ellie giggled and stood up, pulling her sister Jenna along. "Sis, let''s go see the kitchen. You have to teach me how to cook!" Ellie had decided on the bus that she wanted to learn how to cook from her sister. That way, the next time Jason asked what she could do, she wouldn''t have to say "massage" as a joke. Jenna also looked eagerly at the kitchen door. Her passion was cooking, and she looked forward to Jason eating her food. Kira didn''t care much about the tour. She wasn''t busy right now. While many people wanted to buy combat boots, they were all haggling over the price. So, Kira decided to ignore them for a bit and take the chance to see the kitchen. Chloe didn''t really want to go. Her wooden spears were popular, and she was swamped with messages. She didn''t have time to tour the kitchen. But she realized how crammed the RV had become and that they needed to free up some space. So, the four women followed Jason curiously to check out the kitchen. Opening the kitchen door, they were met with a clean and spacious area. While the kitchen was large, it felt warm and comfortable. "Wow, the kitchen is so pretty," Ellie said, admiring the decor. Jason and the others nodded in agreement. This kitchen wasn''t like a restaurant kitchen. Instead, it had the cozy, elegant style of a home kitchen. Jason led the way. First, there were two refrigerators and two freezers for storing food. This made it easy to freeze food. Next, there were all sorts of cooking utensils, cookware, and tableware, including a gas stove, oven, microwave, range hood, dishwasher, and more. After the tour, everyone was happy with the kitchen. Jason smiled. "Wives, let''s organize the RV and move everything into the kitchen." "Okay," the women responded in unison. They all began to organize the messy RV, moving the food into the kitchen and sorting it. The author''s content has been appropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. The women treated the RV like their home and cared about keeping it clean and organized. Jason helped them carry a few things, then sat on the couch, relaxing. None of the women complained. Instead, they were happy to be cleaning the RV. Watching the women chatter and work busily, Jason felt content. The warmth and peace of the RV made him forget that he was in the Escape World. In his past life, at this time, he was still on the bus, wondering how he could get food. He never imagined he would have such a good life now, with food and beautiful women. Sitting on the couch, Jason remembered Lily Young and the other two girls on the bus. He messaged them to ask how they were doing. Lily Young and Tiffany Wilson were safe and sound. The two women had spent the day on the bus, directing others to lure monsters and steal chests. They had found some supplies, but they weren''t useful to Jason. They gave them to the others on the bus based on merit. As for Sophie, she was having some trouble. Although Sophie had used her strength to take control of the bus, most of the people on the bus were disobedient, causing Sophie to suffer. For example, when Sophie sent people to lure monsters and steal chests, many people said they had been injured by Sophie the day before. They said it hurt to run and couldn''t lure the monsters. Some people even mocked Sophie, asking why she didn''t kill the monsters herself. Sophie, being a young girl, couldn''t argue with them. As a result, the bus had only opened a few wooden chests today, getting only a small amount of food. While this food wasn''t enough to eat, they had some wolf meat left from yesterday, so no one went hungry. Now, many of the men on the bus coveted Sophie''s beauty, but they couldn''t beat her. They could only pretend to submit but were probably planning something in secret. Jason felt his heart ache when he learned that his Sophie had been wronged. He also realized that Sophie''s personality wasn''t suited to ruling the bus. This was something Jason had overlooked. "Sophie, if the people on the bus won''t listen to you, you don''t have to manage them. You just need to protect yourself." "I''ll have a chance to pick you up in the RV in a few days." "Okay, Jason. Am I useless?" Sophie replied, feeling guilty. Jason quickly reassured her, saying that she didn''t need to worry about it. Then, Jason gave Sophie an idea of how to get revenge on those disobedient people on the bus. "Sophie, tomorrow, continue to order the people on the bus to steal chests. If they don''t go, don''t worry about it" After hearing Jason''s idea, Sophie replied with a smile, "Jason, that''s so mean. If those people don''t steal chests tomorrow, they''ll go hungry." Jason then reminded her, "It would be best if they starved to death. Sophie, you can''t have any sympathy and give them food." "Okay, okay, I got it, Jason. Love you." Jason smiled and closed his private chat with Sophie. The women had almost finished cleaning up the RV, so they returned to the couch to sell items. Chloe turned to Jason and asked, "Honey, we already have a lot of food. Do we need to trade for more?" "Keep trading," Jason replied. The probability of opening food from chests was still high. In a few days, the probability of getting food would decrease. Especially in the future, when you opened a wooden chest and only got a few Escape Coins, that would be despairing. Although they could hunt wild animals for food, the taste might not be as good as the bread and ramen. The prices of bread and ramen would only increase in the future. Jason wanted to stock up now. So, the women began to sell their items. Jason posted a message in the chat channel, offering attribute orbs in exchange for blueprints. There should still be people with good blueprints in the channel, like how David Lee had the Mobile Kitchen blueprint. However, those people were reluctant to trade away their good blueprints. Therefore, Jason posted a message in the chat channel, offering six E-Rank attribute orbs in exchange for a good blueprint, to see if anyone would take the bait. Jason''s message quickly attracted the attention of many people. The value of six attribute orbs wasn''t low. They could strengthen an attribute to E+ Rank. Similarly, the rarity of a high-level blueprint wasn''t bad either. 40 - Sweet Revenge, and a D-Rank Physique Just as Jason was hoping someone would trade a good blueprint for attribute orbs, a private message caught his attention. It was Jason''s ex-girlfriend, Sarah Jones. "Jason, give me those six attribute orbs, and I can forgive you for abandoning me in the van." Jason was speechless. He was disgusted by Sarah Jones. He had spoiled this woman so much in the past that she couldn''t recognize herself. Even now, she dared to shamelessly ask him for attribute orbs. Jason sneered and replied, "You''re still alive, Sarah Jones?" "If you want attribute orbs, film yourself slapping yourself ten times. If I''m in a good mood, I''ll reward you with an orb." On the highway, an SUV was parked. Sarah Jones sat inside the car, her face ashen. After seeing Jason''s message, she was so angry she almost cursed out loud. That bastard was trying to trick her into slapping herself. She hadn''t even settled the score with Jason for the slap she had already received. "Oh, Sarah Jones, what''s wrong? Why the long face?" A woman in the car mocked disdainfully. Sarah Jones scoffed and retorted, "It''s because of you, bitch. You''re making me lose my appetite." "Hahaha, if you can''t eat, then don''t" Inside the SUV, Sarah Jones and the woman traded insults. The white American man in the driver''s seat said impatiently, "Shut up. You''re too noisy." Sarah Jones and the woman immediately stopped arguing. The two women didn''t dare disobey the white man. In his eyes, they were just desperate easy girls, disposable at any time. Sarah Jones had asked Jason for attribute orbs to please the white man, Joseph. She was so fawning in front of the white man. Unfortunately, he didn''t think much of Sarah Jones. If she wasn''t providing him with 100 units of gasoline every day, he would have sent her to lure monsters to her death long ago. The three people in the car ate their food. Sarah Jones looked at her private chat with Jason. She knew that he wouldn''t give her any attribute orbs. Their relationship had ended when she broke up with him. She just hadn''t expected Jason to be so heartless. However, Sarah Jones still looked down on Jason. She believed that his mode of transportation was that beat-up van, while she was sitting in an SUV. By comparison, the SUV was naturally superior. Sarah Jones had contacted Jason not because she had changed her mind, but because she felt sorry that Jason was going to use those six attribute orbs to trade for blueprints. Otherwise, she wouldn''t have contacted him. Seeing that she couldn''t get attribute orbs from Jason, Sarah Jones didn''t want to make a fool of herself and continued to browse the chat channel. This book''s true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience. Huh? It was Kira! Sarah Jones noticed that her college classmate Kira was selling 1-Star combat boots in the channel. Her eyes lit up. She wanted to ask Kira for a pair of combat boots to please Joseph, but she quickly remembered that she and Kira weren''t on good terms. Asking for boots would only result in her being insulted, just like Jason. "Sigh." Sarah Jones sighed and continued to lurk in the chat channel. But the fact that Jason and Kira had good items made her jealous. On the other side, Sarah Jones was just a minor blip for Jason. He was now frowning as he reviewed his private messages. Many people had contacted him, wanting to trade blueprints for attribute orbs, but he didn''t like any of their blueprints. Most of them were blueprints that Jason already had, or were useless. Such as blueprints for car windows, headlights, and water collectors. There were also some blueprints that Jason didn''t have, but they weren''t worth much. He wanted to trade for them with other supplies, but the other people refused. They only wanted attribute orbs. Finally, Jason used one attribute orb to trade for a pair of couple''s pajamas blueprints. He could have Chloe and the others wear the pajamas for him to watch, so it was useful. There was no point in trading for the remaining blueprints. However, while Jason didn''t get good blueprints, Chloe and the girls earned a large number of Escape Coins and various resources. They earned more than 10,000 Escape Coins, mostly from selling wooden spears and alarm systems. They didn''t sell many pairs of combat boots because they were too expensive. Not many people could afford them. Jenna''s toilet paper and other sundries also sold well, but the profit was too small to compare with the earnings from the wooden spears and alarm systems. Night was gradually falling. After eating some food with the women, Jason prepared to rest. Although the RV didn''t have any entertainment facilities, they could take a bath before bed to relax. Jason had already taken a bath, so he spread out the blankets he had scammed from David Lee on the bed. The blankets were thick and plush, perfect for putting on the bed. Especially since it was windy at night and the temperature had dropped, the blankets could help keep them warm. Half an hour later, Jason began collecting Favor Points. Kira''s Favor Points +5 Seeing the notification about Kira''s Favor Points, Jason nodded with satisfaction. Kira''s initial 5 Favor Points meant that it would be difficult for her to betray him in the future. Jason didn''t have to worry about her former boyfriend causing her to change her mind. Jenna''s Favor Points +5 Ellie''s Favor Points +5 Chloe''s Favor Points +7 Jenna Kira On the other side, David Lee was wiping away tears in the van, his face bruised and swollen. Because he had bought the combat boots, the entire team was bankrupt, and all power had been transferred to Beautiful. Beautiful, Mark Johnson, and Monty would now only listen to Beautiful. After Beautiful took power and understood the entire story, she realized that David Lee had been scammed. But the losses were irreversible and could only be minimized. So, they picked up the boots that had been thrown out of the van. After washing them with water, the stench naturally disappeared. "Hey, Beautiful, try to put on these boots," Beautiful said, handing the boots to her sister Beautiful. She realized that although the boots were small, they were genuine. Women with small feet could wear them. Beautiful''s feet fit perfectly. "Sis, these boots are amazing. They boosted my speed to E+ Rank. I feel incredibly strong." David Lee stared at the boots on Beautiful''s feet, feeling envious. He had bought the boots to save his own life. He hadn''t expected to be scammed and bankrupt, benefitting Beautiful instead. He had even lost all power in the team. David Lee wanted to cry, but no tears would come. At night, even Jason with his E+ Rank physique felt tired and sore. He had no idea how badly he had scammed David Lee. He had used more than a dozen towels that night. Finally, Jason crafted a new towel to wipe the sweat from Jenna. Then, he flicked Jenna on her forehead. "Silly girl, don''t work so hard next time." Jenna just hummed softly, snuggling into Jason''s arms. Jason directly compensated Jenna with six attribute orbs, allowing her to boost her constitution to E+ Rank. At the same time, Jason also used 10 Favor Points to exchange for a D-Rank attribute orb, boosting his own constitution to D- Rank. He also needed to rest and recover. His E+ Rank physique couldn''t hold out anymore. He needed to strengthen it. Finally, Jason listened to the sound of the wind outside the RV and fell into a deep sleep in a world of tenderness. 41 - Third Day Day Three. The wind howled outside, growing stronger. Tiny grains of sand pinged against the RV, creating a constant, rustling sound. Inside, however, the atmosphere was perfectly comfortable. Especially snuggled in the warm blankets, lying on the soft fleece, lost in a peaceful sleep. Ellie was the first to wake up. Ellie''s Favor Points +5 Jason heard the system notification through the haze of sleep, but he didn''t pay much attention. Nobody wanted to get up early, especially with the temperature having dropped overnight. Lying in bed was pure bliss. Especially for Jason, who was surrounded by beautiful sisters. A jolt of awareness shot through Jason, and he instantly realized the situation. But with the chance to get More Favor Points, Jason was happy to enjoy it. Jason didn''t make a sound, savoring the rare moment of peace. Ellie''s movements gradually woke the others. But no one blamed her. They all lay in bed, luxuriating in the cozy environment. Especially after the temperature drop overnight, no one wanted to leave the warm embrace of the covers. Thanks to Jason, they had all developed a habit of sleeping in, a reluctance to face the early morning. Time passed quickly. The blissful morning hours slipped away. Kira, nestled in Jason''s arms, opened her system and found over a hundred messages from David, all filled with furious, expletive-laden rants. He was clearly still reeling from yesterday''s scam. After all, who wouldn''t be upset after going broke buying a pair of ill-fitting, stinky boots? "Hubby look at this." Kira showed the system panel to Jason. Jason couldn''t help but smile. The angrier David got, the happier he was. In his past life, he had constantly clashed with David to avenge Lily. And David had treated him like an insignificant ant. This time, the tables were turning. David would be the one getting played. Jason told Kira to reply to David: "Those boots were the last pair we had in your size. You insisted on buying them. Don''t blame me..." Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author. David would only doubt his own judgment. The system notification for the third day finally arrived. [Ding, congratulations, everyone has survived Day Two.] [Today, wind speed increases to Force 7 C Near Gale.] [Calculating vehicle occupants as 5, distributing 500 units of gasoline, 14 Escape Coins.] Seeing the system notification, Jason woke up the women. After washing up and eating breakfast, the RV started to roll. Today, the system provided 500 units of gasoline. Combined with the 200 units left over from yesterday, Jason now had nearly 700 units. Enough to keep the RV running for a full day. Today''s main task was to find treasure chests and train the beautiful sisters to fight monsters. With the monsters still relatively weak and few in number, it was the perfect time to train them. The beautiful sisters had the potential; they just lacked the courage and experience. Soon, after driving for about six miles, Jason spotted a wild boar guarding a wooden chest. A wild boar? Jason''s eyes lit up with excitement. He couldn''t believe his luck. The first chest of the day and they found a wild boar. In Jason''s eyes, the boar was more valuable than the chest it was guarding. Most teams would be helpless, unable to kill it. But Jason''s strength was far beyond that of an average team. With a few enhancements, he could easily take it down. Judging by its size, the boar weighed over two hundred pounds. The meat alone was worth a fortune. If they could kill it, he and the beautiful sisters would have a delicious meal. "Oh my god, it''s a wild boar!" Ellie exclaimed from the window. "Jason, I''ve seen videos online. Wild boars are really strong, even tougher than bears and tigers. We have to be careful!" Ellie warned. The other girls were nervous. Jason had said they would be fighting monsters today. Was this wild boar to be their first opponent? Jason smiled, parked the RV, and distributed Attribute Orbs to each of the girls C six orbs each, costing a total of 24 Favor Points. He had managed to get More Favor Points from the girls overnight, reaching over a hundred points. So he was happy to spend them on Attribute Orbs for them. Then, Jason suggested: "I recommend you focus on Speed. Combined with the Speed bonus from your boots, you''ll reach D-Rank Speed." "Of course, if you have other ideas, you can allocate them elsewhere." The girls listened and absorbed the Attribute Orbs, then allocated their points. Chloe, Ellie, and Jenna followed Jason''s advice and enhanced their Speed. Kira, however, enhanced her Strength to E+ Rank. She was a former fitness instructor and had a passion for strength training, so she put all her points into it. Jason didn''t force any particular development path on the girls. They could choose which attributes to enhance. Next, Jason gave each of them a pair of boots and a crossbow. Jason pointed to the wild boar outside the window: "You don''t have to kill the boar. All you need to do is shoot it with the crossbows, get a feel for combat, and see some blood." "Whoever hits the boar the most times gets an Attribute Orb as a reward." To add some fun and motivation, Jason organized a shooting competition. The four girls'' eyes lit up. Competing with each other to shoot a wild boar sounded interesting. So Jason opened the RV door and led the four girls outside. Standing on the road, everyone could feel the increased wind speed. There was resistance to any movement. Kira, holding her crossbow, said: "This wind is pretty strong. It''ll affect the accuracy of the bolts." Jason nodded. "That''s where your marksmanship comes in. But within sixty or seventy feet, the wind shouldn''t have too much impact." The girls eagerly took up their crossbows. Chloe, the most enthusiastic of the group, stepped off the road and fired at the boar next to the chest. Due to the strong wind, the bolt missed the boar and hit the wooden chest instead. Thwack! The bolt stuck into the wooden chest, startling the boar. It knew it was under attack. The boar''s beady eyes locked onto Chloe, and it charged at her. Chloe screamed and turned to run: "Ah! The boar''s coming!" Kira and the other two girls rushed from the side of the road and fired at the boar. But the charging boar was too fast, and the three bolts missed. The four girls retreated back to the road, and the boar lost its target. They all quickly reloaded their crossbows. 42 - Hunting Lesson Dodging the Wild Boar Having gained experience from shooting at the boar, the four women understood that hitting a moving target was difficult. So, they kept testing the boar at the edge of the road. The boar seemed quite intelligent, realizing that the women were always hovering near the road, retreating whenever it got close. So, the boar turned and moved away from the road, ignoring the women. Even when Chloe and the others shot at it, it didn''t turn back. "This boar is trying to lure us away from the road." Kira exclaimed. She didn''t expect an animal to be so clever. Jason nodded, reminding them: "Monsters guarding treasure chests have some intelligence. Some are even cunning and treacherous." "Goblins, for example, will even set ambushes and traps." "Also, goblins will beg for mercy before they die, trying to gain sympathy. Don''t hesitate if you encounter them." Jason shared his experiences from his past life. These were lessons learned from countless bloody mistakes. Jenna reminded them, "The boar''s getting away. Should we go after it..." "Of course," Chloe said eagerly. She was actually the most confident about facing the boar. Chloe''s Spirit was E+ Rank, and her Speed was D- Rank. As long as she was careful, the boar wouldn''t be able to hit her. And if she was in danger, Chloe could always use her Mental Impact skill. The other three women agreed to hunt the boar in the Wasteland. Just shooting at it with crossbows from the side of the road wouldn''t be much of a workout. So, the four women loaded their crossbows, left the road, and headed towards the boar. Kira reminded them, "Let''s spread out. That way, the boar will only chase one of us, and the others can shoot safely." The women nodded and spread out across the Wasteland, gradually surrounding the boar. Jason needed to protect the four women, so he exchanged three D-Rank Attribute Orbs, upgrading his E+ Rank Strength to D Rank. Now, Jason''s personal stats were: Name: Jason Williams Strength: D Rank Speed: E+ Rank (D-) Constitution: D- Rank Spirit: E+ Rank Skills: None Escape Coins: 12562 Overall Rating: D Rank Seeing his Strength had reached D Rank, Jason was confident he could kill the boar with his bare hands. Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site. So, he picked up the Wooden Spear and followed behind the women, protecting them. If the boar posed a threat to any of the women, Jason would intervene. At this moment, the boar saw Jason and the women leave the road, and a glint of excitement flashed in its small, human-like eyes. It wanted to gore all these humans to death. Thwip! Suddenly, a black shadow flashed. A crossbow bolt hit the boar directly. Half of the bolt pierced into the boar''s body. Ellie''s eyes lit up with surprise. She had fired that shot. "Oink!" The boar roared angrily and charged towards the women. The boar''s speed was extremely fast, and the women were inexperienced, panicking as they tried to fire. As a result, none of the bolts hit the boar. The boar targeted Chloe, charging straight at her. "Ah!" Chloe screamed and turned to run, trying to get back to the road. Seeing this, Jason sighed and stepped in front of the boar. "Watch closely. Your speed is no slower than the boar''s. Don''t just think about running away. Learn to dodge..." Jason showed the women how to dodge danger by example. Just as the boar was about to hit Jason, he quickly stepped two steps to the left, letting the boar pass him. Effortless and graceful. The women''s eyes lit up, understanding the difference between dodging and running away. Chloe was the first to react. After the boar missed Jason, it charged at her. Chloe focused, and she realized the boar''s charge was simple, a straight line. All she had to do was step to the side when it was about to hit her. So, as the boar was about to hit her, she imitated Jason''s movements and quickly dodged to the side. Boar and human passed each other. "I dodged it!" Chloe''s eyes sparkled with excitement. She shouted to her sisters, "I dodged it. This big dumb boar isn''t so tough after all." The boar seemed to understand Chloe''s words. Its small eyes showed anger, and it turned to charge at Chloe again. Chloe had learned how to dodge, so she wasn''t afraid and easily dodged it again. Seeing this, the other women were eager to try. Their speed wasn''t bad either. They wanted to try dodging the boar. Ellie reacted first, raising her crossbow and aiming at the boar. As the boar turned to charge at Chloe, she pulled the trigger. The crossbow bolt once again turned into a black shadow, thwack, hitting the boar. "Yes!" Ellie jumped up and down with joy. She had hit the boar twice now. Seeing the women had the courage to face the boar, Jason stood aside, watching them tease the animal. The boar charged several times, but Chloe easily dodged each time. This wasn''t because the boar was slow, but because Chloe''s Speed was clearly higher than the boar''s. The boar''s speed was probably around E+ Rank, so it was no match for Chloe''s D- Rank Speed. The boar seemed to know it couldn''t catch Chloe, so it turned to charge at the other women. The women all tried to dodge the boar. Ten minutes later. The boar stood there, glaring at Chloe and the women. It had charged at all of them, but they had all easily dodged it. And now, it was covered in eight or nine crossbow bolts, looking like a porcupine, a pitiful sight. The boar knew it was time to run. It didn''t want to die at the hands of humans and become food. So, the boar turned and ran into the depths of the Wasteland. But a figure had been waiting for it in the back, the figure of Jason, who had been watching all along. The boar didn''t pay attention to Jason and charged straight at him, increasing its speed. It was confident that no human could withstand its charge. As long as Jason dodged, it could escape. Jason held the Wooden Spear, waiting for the right moment... when the boar was only six or seven feet away, he threw the Wooden Spear. Thwack! The Wooden Spear, thrown with D Rank Strength, was terrifying, piercing straight through the boar. "Oink!" The boar squealed in despair, feeling its life quickly draining away. Jason stood there, not even looking at the boar. The boar ran about fifteen or twenty feet past Jason before slowly collapsing on the ground. It had been killed by Jason''s thrown Wooden Spear. "Wow!" Chloe and the other women exclaimed. Jason''s move was so cool. Jason struck a few poses. Chloe, Ellie, and Jenna enthusiastically applauded and cheered. Kira rolled her eyes. How old was he? He was still acting like a kid. And the sisters were really spoiling Jason... Ellie hopped over to Jason, her eyes shining as she praised him, "Jason, the way you threw that Wooden Spear was so cool..." Jason laughed, feeling a little embarrassed by the praise. Seeing Jason was in a good mood, Ellie smiled and said, "Jason, I hit the boar the most times..." Jason had promised that whoever hit the boar the most times would get an Attribute Orb as a reward. Ellie seemed to have a talent for shooting. Half the bolts in the boar''s body were hers. Jason realized, flicking Ellie''s forehead. He should have known. How could Ellie, that prideful girl, praise someone for no reason? She wanted an Attribute Orb. So, Jason took out an E-Rank Attribute Orb and gave it to Ellie. Ellie happily took it, kissed Jason on the cheek, and turned to join her sisters in collecting the crossbow bolts. 43 - Small Dungeon Token While Chloe and the others were collecting the scattered crossbow bolts in the Wasteland, Jason dragged the boar''s carcass to the wooden chest. Opening the chest, he found a token. A dungeon token? Jason immediately picked up the token to examine it. [Small Dungeon Token] After using the token, the vehicle owner can lead followers to a small dungeon world. Clearing the dungeon yields generous rewards. Current Participating Vehicle Owners: 35/100 Jason stroked his chin and nodded after reading the token''s information. He didn''t expect to find a dungeon token on the third day of the Escape World. Luckily, he hadn''t gone to the bus today, or he would have missed it. Jason knew that dungeons were a source of great rewards. Even a quick run could get him a few Attribute Orbs. Jason wouldn''t miss such an opportunity. So, he squeezed his hand and crushed the token. [Ding, vehicle owner Jason Williams has signed up to participate in the small dungeon world. Current number of participants: 37/100. Please wait for the number of participants to reach the required amount.] After reading the system notification, Jason dragged the boar''s carcass back to the kitchen. The kitchen had knives. Jason proceeded to butcher the boar. Jason had plenty of experience processing animal carcasses from his previous life, so he was skilled at it. Soon, the boar was mostly taken care of. The head, trotters, meat, bones, organs, and blood were all separated by Jason. When Chloe and the girls returned to the kitchen after collecting the arrows, they were shocked. Chloe exclaimed, "Hubby, you butchered a whole boar? Were you a butcher in a slaughterhouse?" Jason rolled his eyes at Chloe, "Do I look like a butcher?" "I can process it so quickly because of my D Rank Strength and Speed." The girls hadn''t seen Jason process the boar. In Jason''s hands, a two-hundred-pound boar was as simple as a toy. Chloe and the other women understood and hurriedly helped move the pork into the freezer. Today''s cooking task was naturally assigned to Jenna. Jason told the girls about his plan to go to the dungeon world soon. "Jason, can I go with you?" Ellie''s eyes lit up, feeling that going to the dungeon world would be fun. Especially with her experience shooting the boar, Ellie needed a chance to show off her shooting skills. This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it The other women also said they wanted to see the dungeon world. Jason didn''t want to take the girls because he wasn''t sure what dangers lurked in the dungeon. He couldn''t guarantee that he could take care of them. Also, a hundred teams were participating in this dungeon. If the girls participated, they would easily attract attention. Someone might even realize that the beautiful women selling items in bulk at night were the same team. This could ruin Jason''s plan to quietly reap wealth. Jason told the girls the downsides. "How about this After I go to the dungeon, Chloe, you lead the team to continue searching for chests, okay?" With the girls'' stats, plus Chloe''s Mental Impact skill, they should be safe. So, Jason was confident in Chloe''s ability to lead the team. Seeing Jason say this, Chloe nodded and agreed: "I''ll listen to you, Hubby. Leave the sisters to me. I''ll protect them." Kira suddenly grabbed Jason''s arm, "Hubby, since you said a hundred teams will be participating, you might run into Sarah. Can I go with you?" "We promised to slap Sarah together." Hearing Kira say this, Jason hesitated. It wouldn''t be a problem to just take Kira alone, but that would leave Chloe''s team short one person. At this time, Chloe smiled and said, "Hubby, since you made a promise, take Kira with you. Leave this place to me." And Ellie, although she also wanted to go to the dungeon with Jason, immediately patted her chest after hearing Chloe''s words: "Jason, don''t worry about taking Kira, I''ll shoot all the monsters guarding the chests with my crossbow and protect the sisters." Jenna also nodded, "I''ll cook a big meal, waiting for Jason to come back." Since Chloe and the other women all said so, Jason agreed to take Kira to the dungeon. To ensure the girls'' safety, Jason exchanged another twenty-four Attribute Orbs, giving each of them six. Then, Jason exchanged a D-Rank Attribute Orb and enhanced Chloe''s Spirit to D- Rank. Now Jason could finally be at ease. But after exchanging the Attribute Orbs for the women, Jason only had 28 Favor Points left. He had over a hundred Favor Points when he woke up this morning. Lamenting how quickly Favor Points were used up, Jason checked the system. There were over sixty vehicle owners participating in the dungeon. It wouldn''t be long before it reached a hundred. "Kira, get ready, the dungeon''s about to start." "Okay, Hubby," Kira said excitedly. Kira wanted to experience more things with Jason. That''s what she considered love. Although she had become Jason''s woman, Kira knew that she lacked some affection with Jason. Although affection could be cultivated, the two didn''t have a chance to be alone in the RV. The only time they had spent alone talking and flirting was before they got on the RV, when they were hugging on the road. Kira liked that experience and wanted to spend more time alone with Jason. That''s why Kira had tried to go to the dungeon with Jason. Jason had said that entering the dungeon meant they would be inside for several days. So, Kira found two large backpacks, filled them with food and water. As for weapons, Kira took the crossbow and Wooden Spear, plus the boots she was wearing. Jason did the same. Both of them carried backpacks full of food and water, quietly waiting for the dungeon to open. Chloe drove off to continue searching for chests. Ellie and Jenna went into the kitchen to process the pork and prepare a big meal for tonight. About half an hour later. Jason heard a system notification in his mind. [Ding, the number of participants in the small dungeon world has reached the limit. You will enter the dungeon in ten seconds. Please contact the followers participating.] Jason smiled. The dungeon was finally opening. He put his arm around Kira and waited for the countdown... Whoosh Jason and Kira turned into a white light and disappeared from the RV. A moment later, Jason and Kira appeared in a bedroom. The bedroom was dim, with only moonlight shining in from the window, but it was enough for Jason and Kira to see everything in the bedroom. Kira held up her crossbow and scanned the surroundings, making sure there was no danger before sighing in relief. Then, both of them heard a system notification in their minds. [Welcome to the Zombie World. Please be careful not to be bitten or scratched by zombies, or you will be infected and become one of them.] [For the next seven days, your team will receive points for every zombie you kill.] [The one hundred teams will be ranked based on points. After the seventh day, teams ranked 100th to 11th will be rewarded with six E-Rank Attribute Orbs. Teams ranked 10th to 4th will be rewarded with six E-Rank Attribute Orbs, one D-Rank Attribute Orb, and a random 1-Star equipment. Teams ranked 2nd and 3rd will be rewarded with six E-Rank Attribute Orbs, one D-Rank Attribute Orb, and one 2-Star equipment. The 1st place team will be rewarded with six E-Rank Attribute Orbs, one D-Rank Attribute Orb, one 2-Star equipment, and one skill book.] 44 - Zombie World [Tip 1: Resource chests are hidden throughout the city. These chests contain food and water.] [Tip 2: Advanced zombies have crystal cores in their brains. Any creature can strengthen its attributes by absorbing them, but there is a chance of mutation. Please be cautious.] After hearing the system prompt, Jason signaled Kira to remain silent. He grabbed his Wooden Spear and headed towards the bedroom door. When the system prompted, Jason had already heard a sound outside the bedroom. He wanted to check the source of the sound. Kira was nervous about Jason leaving the bedroom, especially since it was nighttime. She grabbed her crossbow and followed behind Jason. The system prompt said this was a zombie world. Kira had seen plenty of zombie movies; they were disgusting and terrifying. She didn''t want to be infected and become a zombie. Click. Jason opened the bedroom door handle, making a locking sound. He immediately felt something hitting the door. Thump, thump, thump! Jason held the door shut with one hand, keeping it still. "Roar!" A roar came from behind the door. It was a zombie! Jason and Kira knew what was behind the door without thinking. Jason signaled Kira to back away. Kira understood and immediately retreated to the corner of the bedroom, giving Jason room to fight. Jason then opened the bedroom door and thrust out his spear as fast as lightning. Thwack! The Wooden Spear pierced the head of the zombie behind the door. It was a female zombie, with rotting flesh and a decaying smell. After taking down the zombie, Jason didn''t let his guard down. He checked the entire room. Only after confirming that there were no other zombies in the room did Jason relax. In this zombie world, Jason had to be careful. He didn''t want to be infected and become a zombie; that would be a tragic death. "Hubby, the chat channel is definitely inaccessible," Kira said, looking at the system panel. Jason nodded. It was normal that the chat channel was inaccessible. This was a dungeon world, and the time flow was different from the Escape World. How could they communicate? Seven days in the zombie world might only be half a day in the Escape World. If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. Jason didn''t think much of it. The only thing he looked forward to was the reward for first place on the leaderboard; it was too generous. The reward was a skill book. Jason had to fight for that first place. Besides, even the reward for one hundredth place wasn''t bad. Once this dungeon was over, as long as they survived, the strength of these hundred teams would surpass the others, making them the top teams. Right, he hadn''t checked the leaderboard yet. Jason opened the system to check the leaderboard. There were a hundred names on the list, each representing a team. Because Jason had just killed a zombie, earning 1 point, his ranking immediately rose to fifth place. 1st place: Hank Reed, 3 points 2nd place: Joseph, 2 points 3rd place: Wendy Jordan, 1 point 4th place: Samuel Sands, 1 point 5th place: Jason Williams, 1 point ... 67th place: David Lee, 0 points ... After looking at the leaderboard, Jason was thoughtful. He recognized several names on the leaderboard. For example, Wendy Jordan had been offered as a reward by David Lee in his previous life because she was a virgin. She died for unknown reasons. And the man named Hank Reed was said to be a soldier with considerable strength. Samuel Sands was the most mysterious. He was a Taoist priest who could tell fortunes. He could predict some things. In short, all these hundred teams had some tricks up their sleeves. Jason had to treat them with caution. Although Jason was strong, he could still be ambushed by special abilities. And this zombie world wasn''t simple. There were advanced zombies. With his D Rank Strength, Jason couldn''t be reckless in this world. "Hubby, there''s a horde of zombies downstairs..." Kira walked to the window and looked down, then quietly reminded Jason. Jason also came to the window to check. The zombie world was dark at night. The view outside the window was dim. He could only see countless figures moving below with the moonlight. Jason knew there were zombies downstairs. The most eye-catching one was a three-meter-tall zombie covered in rotten flesh. This should be the advanced zombie the system mentioned. As Jason observed the advanced zombie, it seemed to sense his gaze and suddenly looked up at Jason. Jason was startled. He quickly pulled Kira aside. Perhaps Jason reacted quickly, or perhaps the zombie''s vision wasn''t good at night, but it didn''t spot Jason and Kira. Jason didn''t expect the advanced zombie to be so perceptive. Jason was only observing it for a few moments, and it sensed him. After waiting for a while, Jason returned to the window and observed the situation downstairs. This time, Jason didn''t dare to focus on the advanced zombie. Instead, he observed the zombie horde. In the moonlight, the zombie horde was moving, not knowing where to go. He could occasionally hear zombie roars, which were eerie and unsettling at night. After watching for a while, Jason knew that the zombies wouldn''t stay in place. They should leave after a night. So, Jason looked at Kira. "Let''s rest here for a night. We''re not in a hurry to hunt zombies, and we have plenty of food and water." "Okay, I''ll listen to you," Kira said, her face flushed as she looked at the double bed in the bedroom. For these seven days, she would be alone with Jason, without the other beautiful sisters. Great... Jason smiled, picked up Kira, and went to the bedroom. Kira''s Favor Points +5 Kira''s Favor Points +5 ... The sky gradually brightened. Harsh sunlight shone in from the window, making Jason squint. "It''s dawn..." Jason lay in bed, not wanting to get up. He had a habit of sleeping in and didn''t like waking up early. Looking at Kira, she was still sleeping. Last night, Jason had exchanged six Attribute Orbs to enhance Kira''s Constitution. Now, all of Kira''s attributes except Spirit were enhanced to E+ Rank. Except for vehicle owners with special abilities, no one was a match for Kira. Jason opened the system to check. His ranking had dropped to twenty-something, and it was still declining. Many teams had already gotten up early to hunt zombies and increase their points. The first place was still Hank Reed, with 36 points. No, these people were so dedicated. He couldn''t fall behind. Kira''s Favor Points +5 At this time, Kira woke up and snuggled into Jason''s arms, "Is it morning? Hubby, are we going to kill zombies?" Jason didn''t want to get up and kill zombies, but he didn''t want to fall too far behind the other teams. After all, he didn''t know the situation in this world yet. He had to explore and see. "I''ll go kill some zombies to check things out. You don''t need to come. Continue sleeping and resting." Kira wanted to go kill zombies, but she understood that Jason was worried about danger, so she could only follow his arrangements. Not causing Jason trouble was a consensus among her and her sisters. 45 - Whos Really Killing the Zombies Jason and Kira each ate a sandwich and a hot dog, replenishing their energy. Kira especially drank a large bottle of mineral water. She had lost a lot of fluids overnight and needed to replenish them. Jason went to the window and looked down. The horde was gone. Only about twenty zombies were wandering around below, which wasn''t a problem for Jason. "You rest in the room. I''ll go downstairs and kill a few zombies," Jason told Kira. Kira nodded. They had slept late last night, and she needed to catch up on her sleep. Fortunately, she knew Jason''s strength and wasn''t too worried. Jason grabbed his Wooden Spear, opened the door, and walked out. Soon, Jason was downstairs. Several zombies close to Jason noticed him and roared, lunging at him. Jason easily stabbed them with his Wooden Spear. These ordinary zombies weren''t very fast, making them easy to kill. However, Jason didn''t notice that several bees were observing him from the sky as he killed the zombies. Twenty-odd ordinary zombies were nothing to Jason. In two or three minutes, Jason had killed them all with his Wooden Spear. He opened the system. His score was 23, but his ranking had only risen to 14th. Hank Reed in first place had over 80 points. Jason was surprised. What ability did this Hank Reed have to score so quickly? Jason only knew that he was a soldier; he didn''t know anything else. In his previous life, their statuses were too different. One was strong, and the other was an ant. So, Jason naturally didn''t know Hank Reed''s background. The other teams in the top ten weren''t bad either, steadily climbing with scores around thirty to forty. Jason also noticed that David Lee''s ranking had risen to eighth place. Interesting. He didn''t expect David Lee to be doing so well after getting a C-Rank Van. Jason wasn''t worried about the people ranked above him. His strength was no less than anyone else''s. He was confident he could take first place. It was just slaughtering zombies. As long as he didn''t encounter large hordes or advanced zombies, he had nothing to fear. So, Jason walked in the direction he had come from If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. At this time, various teams were using different methods to hunt zombies and increase their team scores. On the leaderboard, names were constantly fluctuating. The one everyone found unfathomable was Hank Reed, who was firmly in first place. His score was about twice as high as Joseph in second place. No matter how hard Joseph tried to catch up, the gap between their scores only widened. On a certain street. Joseph, a white man, was wielding an iron axe, hacking away at a small group of zombies. However, the zombies around him seemed not to notice Joseph, wandering aimlessly. This was Joseph''s vehicle''s ability: to eliminate his presence. As long as the zombies'' mental strength didn''t exceed D Rank, they couldn''t detect him. Joseph chopped a zombie to death with his axe, panting with exhaustion. He could only find a corner to rest. "Damn it, that first place must be cheating. How is he getting points so fast?" Joseph complained as he looked at the leaderboard. His ability was to eliminate his presence. The zombies were like sitting ducks in front of him. But he was still far behind first place. Joseph could only think that the guy named Hank Reed was cheating. Wait, was it because Hank Reed''s team was more powerful? Joseph suddenly thought of another possibility. The team. If multiple people were killing zombies, Joseph couldn''t compete with Hank Reed alone. As for why Joseph didn''t have any teammates, there were two women in his SUV. One of them was Sarah Jones, but they could barely kill a chicken, let alone a zombie. So, Joseph hadn''t brought those two women into the dungeon world. This actually saved Joseph''s life. Because one of Jason and Kira''s goals in coming to this dungeon was to deal with Sarah. If Sarah wasn''t in the zombie world, she wouldn''t have provoked Jason. While Joseph was hiding in a corner resting, the zombie horde on the street suddenly became restless, which startled Joseph. He quickly checked what was happening. Huh? Someone was killing zombies? Joseph frowned. Who was crazy enough? There were over two hundred zombies here. Without an ability like his to eliminate their presence, the only result would be being surrounded and killed by the horde. Joseph wanted to see who was so reckless. Unfortunately, the horde blocked his view. He could only hide in a corner and watch. The horde was converging on one place. Joseph didn''t think anyone could survive in this situation. Ten seconds later, the horde was still converging. A minute later, the horde was still converging. Two minutes later... Joseph realized something was wrong. The number of zombies was noticeably smaller. Could someone really kill the entire horde? Joseph felt like he had discovered something important, but he didn''t dare to go over to check. He didn''t want to be accidentally injured. Wait, I can check the leaderboard. Joseph remembered that the leaderboard could show who was slaughtering the zombies. All he had to do was see who had a significant increase in points. Joseph quickly opened the leaderboard. He was in second place, with over 70 points. Hank Reed in first place had over 140 points, and it was still rising. "Could it be Hank Reed in first place?" Joseph couldn''t help but guess. No wonder his score was rising so quickly; he had such strength. Joseph admired Hank Reed. If Hank Reed could slaughter the horde, there was no point in him competing for first place. He couldn''t compete. They weren''t on the same level. As Joseph was thinking, his ranking dropped. It dropped to third place. What!? Joseph didn''t expect the third place to surpass him and become second while he was resting. The competition was fierce. But Joseph wasn''t worried. He decided to rest and then go kill zombies. With his ability to eliminate his presence, was he afraid of surpassing the other guy? But soon, Joseph frowned. Because the second place was gaining points quickly, surpassing him and reaching over 80. Then over 90. Then breaking 100... This guy named Jason Williams was gaining points faster than Hank Reed. Joseph had witnessed Jason quickly rising from over 70 points to over 100. And he was still rising, his momentum approaching Hank Reed. Hank Reed had over 150, and Jason had over 110. Hank Reed still had over 150, and Jason had over 120. Gulp. Joseph swallowed and looked at the horde not far away. Who was killing the zombie horde? Jason or Hank Reed? Joseph already had a guess in his mind, but he still had to see who was killing the zombie horde. After a few more minutes, Joseph finally saw a figure moving through the horde. This person was holding a Wooden Spear, and it was impossible to see their speed. The zombies that approached the person were instantly stabbed in the head. 46 - Jason Williams Tops the Leaderboard As Jason Williams pierced the last zombie with his wooden spear, he finally moved away from the corpse-strewn street. Joseph, who had been hiding in a corner, couldn''t help but sigh in relief as he watched Jason Williams walk away. Looking at the leaderboard again, Jason Williams had surpassed Hank to become number one. The two were separated by more than 50 points. 1st Place: Jason Williams, 245 points 2nd Place: Hank, 187 points 3rd Place: Joseph, 76 points ... Seeing the leaderboard, Joseph felt like he was just running alongside a prodigy. Even Hank in second place had more points left over than Joseph''s total score in third. Joseph no longer hoped to compete for first place. He now just wanted to hold onto third. At least the reward for third place was the same as second, so he wouldn''t lose anything. Thinking of this, Joseph felt his strength returning and quickly got up, heading in the opposite direction from Jason Williams. Joseph now just wanted to kill more zombies to maintain his third-place position. He didn''t care about the two big shots above him. Meanwhile, on the rooftop of a low building, a man in military uniform frowned. Behind the uniformed man, four men were quietly discussing Jason Williams. "Jason Williams? Isn''t that the guy who exchanged Attribute Orbs for Blueprints?" "That''s right, that''s him, we got our battle boots Blueprints from him." One of the men holding a wooden spear looked at the uniformed man, "Hank, this Jason Williams is the one we traded the battle boot Blueprints to for Attribute Orbs." The uniformed man was Hank, the former number one. And the 1-star battle boots Blueprints that Jason Williams bought were sold by Hank. However, it wasn''t Hank who traded with Jason Williams at the time, but his follower. So Jason Williams and Hank didn''t have much contact. Hank nodded, indicating he heard them, then looked down at the horde of zombies below. A flying sword was rapidly weaving through the horde, occasionally slicing off a head. This was Hank''s ability: weapon manipulation. He had previously been at the top of the leaderboard thanks to this ability. However, despite this ability to effortlessly take heads in a crowd and easily slaughter zombies, Jason Williams had surpassed him, making Hank feel very uncomfortable. He naturally didn''t want to give up the first-place position. Unfortunately, Jason Williams'' score was rising too quickly. Just as Hank was focusing his mental energy on the flying sword, preparing to overtake Jason Williams, Jason Williams'' score on the leaderboard began to rise again. The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. 260 points 270 points 300 points 400 points On the rooftop, the four followers behind Hank looked at each other. They originally thought Hank was invincible, but they didn''t expect someone to be even more courageous than him. Who was this guys general? Should they advise Hank to give up trying to compete for first place? Half an hour later. After Hank used his flying sword to kill all the zombies downstairs, he contentedly retracted the flying sword. He opened the leaderboard and looked. 1st Place: Jason Williams, 562 points 2nd Place: Hank, 312 points 3rd Place: Joseph, 139 points ... Hank''s legs weakened, and he cursed out loud. He felt exactly the same as Joseph, only with collapse and incomprehension. "Damn it, he''s cheating! This Jason Williams is definitely cheating!" Hank only hated that the system didn''t have a reporting function, otherwise he could definitely write a report thousands of words long. Too bullying. Hank already suspected that Jason Williams had an infinite-ammo machine gun in his hand. Otherwise, how could he explain his score rising so quickly? Meanwhile, Jason Williams didn''t care about Hank''s mental breakdown; he was still slaughtering zombie hordes. However, before killing the zombie hordes, Jason Williams would carefully observe. Confirming the number of zombies, the surrounding terrain, and whether there were any high-level zombies. Only when these risks were within his ability to manage would Jason Williams jump out and slaughter zombies. The morning passed quickly. Jason Williams'' score had reached over 1100, while Hank in second place only had over 600 points, and Joseph in third place was even more pathetic, with just over 300 points. In short, Jason Williams intimidated everyone with an overwhelming attitude. He actually slaughtered over a thousand zombies in one morning, which was simply too brutal. Hank in second place and Joseph in third place didn''t even kill as many as Jason Williams combined. And Jason Williams didn''t kill over a thousand zombies without a price: he used up more than a dozen wooden spears. However, a dozen wooden spears were just a few dozen Escape Coins to Jason Williams. At the same time, the small groups of zombies in the area near Jason Williams had been slaughtered, leaving only two large zombie hordes. One of these large zombie hordes had eight or nine hundred zombies, and the other had thousands of zombies. Neither of these zombie hordes was easy to deal with. Especially the one with thousands of zombies; if Jason Williams encountered it, he would only have the option to run. Jason Williams didn''t provoke the remaining horde of eight or nine hundred zombies either. Because there were high-level zombies in the horde. Out of caution, Jason Williams chose to avoid them. While hunting zombies outside, Jason Williams accidentally found a wooden chest in a corner of the street. Opening the chest, it actually contained a family bucket of fried chicken burgers for five people, as well as ice-cold cola. Smelling the aroma of fried food, Jason Williams'' eyes couldn''t help but light up. He couldn''t remember how long it had been since he had eaten such delicious food. Jason Williams didn''t even want his wooden spear anymore, picked up the fried chicken burger family bucket,ŴͰ, and quickly rushed back to his residence. However, after Jason Williams left, the few bees that had been following him in the air circled twice, then flew in another direction. About a dozen minutes later, the few little bees flew into the window of a certain residential building. The window was open, and bees and wasps were flying in and out from time to time, as if there was a beehive inside. Inside the room. A girl was sitting on the sofa, with a few little bees resting on her palm, the same ones that had just been tracking Jason Williams. "You found someone slaughtering zombies en masse?" The girl muttered to herself, looking at the bees in her palm. Anyone who didn''t know better would think she had mental problems. But that wasn''t the case. The girl''s ability was to communicate with, control, and cultivate bees. This ability was actually quite OP, a downward strike for most creatures. No person or animal would dare to withstand the attack of a bee swarm. However, in this world, the bee swarm couldn''t kill a single zombie, which made the girl very distressed. The girl was Ellie, whom Jason Williams remembered slightly. Ellie''s transportation was very special: her vehicle was full of beehives and flowers, but she couldn''t take anyone on board. Because the maximum number of people her transportation could hold was one. This resulted in Ellie not having any followers or teammates. This made it even more miserable for Ellie in the zombie world. Other than when she first arrived and shot a zombie in the room with a wooden bow, Ellie hadn''t killed any zombies since. Her score was only a pitiful point. Her ranking had also dropped to the last place, number one hundred. Ellie no longer had any hope for ranking rewards; if she could, she even wanted to hide in the room for seven days. But she had no food or water. Staying in the room would only lead to starvation and thirst. So Ellie wanted to find a teammate to help her find food and water. Jason Williams, who had just killed zombies alone, became Ellie''s target of choice. She just didn''t know that the result of her going to find Jason Williams was tantamount to entering the lion''s den... 47 - A Cute Little Beauty When Jason Williams returned to his apartment with the fried chicken burger family bucket, Kira was already waiting for him at the door. "Oh, how did my little badass know I was coming back? Have we reached the point of telepathy?" Kira''s face flushed, and she rolled her eyes at Jason Williams. "What telepathy? I saw you coming back from the window" Kira wanted to say something more, but didn''t know how to start. Last night, Jason Williams gave her the nickname ''little badass'' and even used a pajama Blueprint to synthesize leopard-print pajamas for her to wear. Jason Williams calling her little badass just now was clearly implying that the beastly affair wasn''t over, and to be prepared for some role-playing later. "Hubby, how about I play the little badass tonight? Take me zombie-killing this afternoon, please?" Kira hugged Jason Williams'' arm and pleaded, not wanting her legs to be weak this afternoon and continue resting in the apartment. She had been paying attention to the leaderboard all morning. Especially after seeing Jason Williams'' ranking soar to the top, she was incredibly excited. Now that Jason Williams had become number one, Kira also wanted to kill some zombies to train herself, not wanting to just play the little badass for these seven days. If that were the case, she would be laughed to death by her sisters when she returned to the Escape World. Kira wanted to kill some zombies and become stronger. When she went back, she wanted to show Chloe and the other sisters how amazing she was. Jason Williams laughed, "I can take you zombie-killing this afternoon, but you have to perform well tonight." "How... how else do I have to perform? Didn''t I already play the little badass? I even begged for mercy like a little kitten in the end" Kira said with a resentful expression at the end. Jason Williams always bullied her, his old classmate. Jason Williams then pointed out the key point, "You have to be more proactive." This kind of thing wasn''t fun if only one person was putting in effort, and Jason Williams also wanted to enjoy being passive for a change. Chloe did this very well. But Kira, despite her usually outgoing personality, was shy in this regard. A little badass only becomes truly irresistible when she lets loose. Kira lightly punched Jason Williams, "Dream on, I''m still a newbie, how can I let loose" As they were talking, they were about to enter the apartment and close the door. At that moment, Kira caught a glimpse of a small yellow figure following behind Jason Williams. "Bees! Quick, get inside and close the door!" Kira quickly pulled Jason Williams inside and closed the door. Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. Being stung by a bee would cause a big swelling, and Kira didn''t want to let a bee into the apartment. Jason Williams didn''t pay it much attention. He brought Kira to the table, placing the fried chicken burger family bucket and cola on it. "We''re in for a treat these few days. The food from the chests in this copy world should be pretty good, like this family bucket." Smelling the aroma of the family bucket, Kira couldn''t help but feel hungry. She used to work out and was very restrained in eating this kind of high-calorie fried food, so she hadn''t eaten enough delicious food before coming to the Escape World. She didn''t expect to be able to eat a fried chicken burger now. Jason Williams and Kira sat closely together, whispering sweet words and eating burgers and fried chicken. Just as they were being affectionate, a knock sounded on the door. Huh!? Jason Williams and Kira were both stunned, and they exchanged serious glances. Jason Williams immediately got up and synthesized a wooden spear. Kira took out her crossbow, following behind Jason Williams. "Who is it?" Jason Williams went to the door and asked. After a moment, a girl''s voice sounded outside the door, "Hello, I don''t have any ill intentions, I just want to ask you to team up." A girl outside the door? Jason Williams and Kira exchanged glances, both recognizing the voice outside as a girl''s. Out of caution, Jason Williams didn''t open the door immediately. The person outside was definitely not simple, because Jason Williams was sure he wasn''t being followed when he came back, unless they had a special ability. But now that Jason Williams had just returned, someone was knocking on the door, clearly having been followed. That meant the person outside had an ability that even he couldn''t detect. Not knowing the other person''s background, Jason Williams didn''t want to have a conflict with them. "Team up? How?" Jason Williams probed. "I can provide you with information, such as the location of nearby zombies and other teams, in exchange for just providing me with some food and water." The girl outside the door stated her terms. Jason Williams frowned. Only providing food and water? "Don''t be ridiculous, do you think I''m stupid? With your ability to gather information, you could find food yourself. Why would you want to team up with me?" Jason Williams tested the person outside. Unfortunately, the apartment door didn''t have a peephole, so he couldn''t see the situation outside. "My ability makes it difficult to kill zombies, otherwise I wouldn''t be asking you to team up," the girl outside the door explained helplessly. Jason Williams understood. The girl outside the door''s ability must be related to reconnaissance and tracking, unable to obtain food on her own, so she was asking him to team up. Of course, this was just the person outside''s word, and Jason Williams wouldn''t completely believe it. So Jason Williams signaled Kira to hide in the bedroom, ready to come out and fight at any moment. As Kira hid in the bedroom, Jason Williams cautiously opened the apartment door. The next second, a swarm of bees flew in through the door crack. It was already too late to close the door. Jason Williams could only remain still, letting the bee swarm fly into the apartment. The bee swarm was clearly controlled, and didn''t sting Jason Williams. After a moment, a girl carrying a beehive on her back pushed open the door and entered, smiling, "Hehe, don''t worry, I don''t have any ill intentions... Woah, you''re so handsome." "There should be another person in the apartment, right? Are they hiding in the bedroom or the bathroom" Jason Williams looked at the bee-controlling girl and recognized her identity: Ellie. He didn''t expect this girl''s ability to be controlling bee swarms. He had been careless. Then Jason Williams'' eyes narrowed, and he suddenly acted, throwing the wooden spear instantly. It stabbed into the wall behind Ellie, scaring her and causing her to break out in cold sweat. She almost died at Jason Williams'' hands. Ellie then saw Jason Williams holding another wooden spear, and quickly waved her hands, "Ah, don''t kill me... I don''t have any ill intentions, I just want to team up." Jason Williams nodded, "I will, put those bees and wasps away." Ellie hesitated, but after looking at the wooden spear in Jason Williams'' hand, she compromised. So all the bee swarms flying around the room flew into the beehive on her back. Jason Williams also casually threw the wooden spear aside, which finally made Ellie breathe a sigh of relief. If they fought, the result would only be Ellie being pierced by the wooden spear and Jason Williams being covered in stings. This was a result that neither side wanted to see. "Kira, come out," Jason Williams called out to the bedroom. Then Kira opened the bedroom door, holding her crossbow, and walked out. The three of them then sat down at the table. After Ellie sat down, her eyes kept darting back and forth between the fried chicken burgers and the cola. If Jason Williams and Kira weren''t watching her, Ellie would be drooling. And Jason Williams and Kira couldn''t help but nod at the same time as they looked at Ellie. A cute little beauty. 48 - Ellie Joins the Team Jason Williams looked at Ellie, liking what he saw. The girl radiated cuteness in every gesture. Even without makeup, her collagen-rich cheeks were more than a match for most women in the world. If Lily Young was a princess, Sarah Jones was like your first love in high school, and Ellie was the lively and adorable girl next door. Jason Williams wasn''t about to let this beauty slip away. Meanwhile, Kira also had the idea of taking Ellie in as a younger sister. Having a sister to share the workload would reduce her pressure by half during the seven days. Kira was even more eager than Jason Williams at this point. "You''ve seen my ability. I can control bee swarms to scout for you, and even help you deal with other teams. My condition is that you have to feed and house me for these seven days," Ellie said, looking at the family bucket. She wished Jason Williams would hurry up and agree so she could eat a burger. Jason Williams tapped the table, making Ellie look away from the family bucket. "I''ll provide you with food and drink, no problem, but I don''t want to partner up." "Huh?" Ellie was confused. Providing food and drink without partnering? Was there such a good thing in the world? But Jason Williams'' next sentence made Ellie realize that there was no such thing as a free lunch. "Providing food and drink isn''t difficult for me, but I only provide for my women. Do you want to become one of my women?" "Ah!?" Ellie exclaimed, then looked at Kira. "Don''t you mind?" Kira was stunned. "Why would I mind?" "Aren''t you two a couple?" Ellie asked, confused. Jason Williams and Kira were both so good-looking. They were like a match made in heaven, and their actions were very intimate, clearly a couple. Kira understood Ellie''s confusion and said, "I''m one of his women. If you join, we''ll be sisters." "And I really hope you''ll join. Our Hubby is Jason Williams, the number one on the leaderboard. You definitely won''t regret your decision today if you join." "He''s your Hubby, not our Hubby," Ellie complained. She hadn''t agreed to become Jason Williams'' woman yet. But Ellie was somewhat surprised that Jason Williams was the number one on the leaderboard. No wonder he was so powerful, with the ability to kill her instantly. Ellie looked at Jason Williams and asked, "How many women do you have?" Jason Williams was calm and composed, with a hint of regret in his voice. "Right now, there are only seven or eight, but I''ll work hard to take in more women in the future" Only seven or eight? And planning to take in more in the future? If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. Ellie''s eyes widened, and her two cute little cheeks puffed up. From what Jason Williams was saying, seven or eight was still too few? Wasn''t he afraid of wearing himself out? Ellie crossed her arms and shook her head at Jason Williams. "I don''t want to marry a heartbreaker, even if you''re handsome." "That''s a shame. We can''t team up then," Jason Williams raised an eyebrow at Ellie. Then Jason Williams pulled the family bucket in front of him, took out a chicken burger and fed it to Kira. "Here, wifey Let''s eat the whole family bucket, not leaving a single piece for her." "You" Ellie glared at Jason Williams, sulking. Kira giggled, knowing Jason Williams'' tactic all too well. She was taken in with bread and instant noodles. She wondered how long this bee-controlling beauty could hold out. So, to cooperate with Jason Williams, Kira took small bites of the burger he fed her. "Hubby It''s so delicious. This one is spicy. Try this chicken wing." "Mm, these BBQ wings are cooked just right. Too bad there are only two left. We''ll each have one." Jason Williams and Kira fed each other from the family bucket, eating very slowly the whole time, commenting on the taste of each bite. Ellie swallowed repeatedly on the side. She hadn''t eaten anything since coming to the copy world. There was a little honey in the beehive, but even the bee swarm didn''t have enough for themselves, let alone spare any for her. The aroma of the fried chicken burgers filled the entire apartment, incredibly rich. "Ah!" Ellie clearly couldn''t resist the temptation of the food and directly reached into the family bucket, grabbed a burger, tore open the packaging, and ate. Jason Williams and Kira didn''t stop her, watching her devour the burger with a smile. After eating the burger, Ellie completely resigned herself to her fate, looking at Jason Williams. At least he was handsome enough. It wasn''t too much of a loss for her, except that he was too much of a heartbreaker. Otherwise, she would have agreed to Jason Williams long ago. After all, who wouldn''t want to fall in love with a handsome guy? Kira also noticed that Ellie was a bit embarrassed, so she sat next to Ellie and asked about her situation. They introduced themselves and got to know each other. Ellie held a fried chicken leg in her left hand and drank cola in her right, but her eyes kept looking at Jason Williams from time to time. "You can''t abandon me after we leave the copy world, or I''ll be at a huge loss" Jason Williams nodded with a smile. "Don''t worry. As long as you don''t betray me, I won''t abandon you." Ellie felt much more comfortable after hearing Jason Williams say that. She didn''t want to sell her body for a few meals, but if Jason Williams protected her in the future, it wouldn''t be too much of a loss. Lunchtime passed quickly. The family bucket had been eaten up by the three of them. Jason Williams got up and looked at the two women. "Let''s go, I''ll take you zombie-killing." The two women didn''t object to killing zombies. Kira wanted to improve her strength and gain combat experience, while Ellie wanted to see Jason Williams'' strength and whether he could protect her in the future. After a simple preparation, Jason Williams and the two women left the apartment. This time, with Ellie''s bee scouting ability, Jason Williams could easily find places with fewer zombies. Jason Williams basically left it to Kira to deal with the small number of zombies they encountered. Practicing with low-level zombies was perfect for Kira. And Jason Williams personally taught Kira how to fight. Kira benefited greatly. These experiences were all combat methods that Jason Williams had summarized from fighting his way up from the bottom. Killing low-level zombies was basically no problem. Moreover, Kira''s Strength, Speed, and Physique attributes were all E+ rank, and her speed reached D- rank after putting on the combat boots. Even Hank and Joseph didn''t have such high attributes. So, zombies had no chance but to be slaughtered when facing Kira. After Kira stabbed dozens of zombies to death with her wooden spear, her whole temperament changed a lot. She looked like a female general, full of heroism. Ellie, on the other hand, wasn''t interested in killing zombies. After shooting two zombies with her wooden bow, she didn''t do anything else. Even when Jason Williams wanted to personally teach her how to fight, she refused. Her reason was that her ability wasn''t suitable for dealing with zombies and she had already given up. Since she couldn''t get into the top ten on the leaderboard anyway, she was just tagging along in this copy world. It was better to leave the zombies to Jason Williams to solve, which would increase Jason Williams'' score and maintain his first-place position. Jason Williams didn''t say anything about this. To each their own. And Ellie''s ability wasn''t bad either. Jason Williams would be on edge if he had to fight a swarm of bees. It was just that bee swarms were too ineffective against zombies. 49 - Dont Be Afraid, Ladies In the afternoon, Jason Williams led Kira and Ellie around, hunting zombies. During this time, Jason Williams tried to scout the large zombie hordes. As a result, Jason Williams was almost surrounded by the large zombie hordes twice, making him never dare to think about hunting them again. Going up against a large zombie horde alone was suicide. Large zombie hordes were too difficult for Jason Williams to deal with, so it was better to kill small zombie groups. So, Jason Williams focused his energy on hunting small zombie groups. The day quickly came to an end. As it grew dark, Jason Williams led Kira and Ellie back to the apartment with several boxed lunches and bottles of mineral water. Back in the apartment, the three sat at the table eating their boxed lunches. "Do you guys have the feeling that this zombie world seems too easy?" Jason Williams asked the two women after taking a bite of his boxed lunch. Jason Williams didn''t know why, but he always felt that the zombie world was too simple. Like Ellie, as long as she had food and water, she could easily hide in the room for seven days. But the two women looked puzzled, not understanding what Jason Williams meant. "Easy? How?" Kira rolled her eyes. "Hubby, you''re strong, so you naturally feel that killing zombies is easy. The others aren''t like you. If you don''t believe me, look at the teams after the twentieth place on the leaderboard. Their scores are still around a hundred, or even just dozens." Hearing Kira say this, Jason Williams opened the leaderboard with a puzzled look. The first place was still Jason Williams, with a score of over 2100. The second place was Hank, with a score of over 1500. The third place was Joseph, with a score of over 900. The scores for fourth to tenth place were around six hundred to seven hundred. The scores for tenth to twentieth place were around four hundred to five hundred. But from the twentieth place onwards, the scores dropped sharply, basically around one hundred points, with the very last ones having only a few dozen. The worst, Ellie, had a score of only 3 points. Seeing this leaderboard, Jason Williams only had one thought: eighty percent of the teams had already started slacking off. From the twentieth place onwards, the thinking of these teams was basically the same as Ellie''s. They no longer aimed to kill zombies. These teams wanted to survive seven days and be satisfied with a basic reward. After all, the scores of the top ten teams were too high. They basically had no hope of squeezing into the top ten, so instead of risking their lives to kill zombies, they might as well slack off. The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. However, seeing the negative attitude of most of the teams, Jason Williams had a bad feeling. But he couldn''t figure out what the key problem was. Was the copy world really that easy to clear? Jason Williams looked at Ellie. "Ellie, after you finish eating, get ready. Let''s collect our ''vehicle fare'' as soon as possible." "Mm," Ellie said softly, nodding as she lowered her head to eat her boxed lunch. But if you looked closely, you would find that her snow-white neck was already blushing red. Kira smiled silently on the side. She was about to have another sister. Jason Williams was preparing to build a beauty army. After dinner, Jason Williams pulled Ellie into the bedroom. There were basically no entertainment options this late at night. The only thing Jason Williams could do was collect his "vehicle fare." Ellie''s Favor Points +2 In the city, other teams were also hiding in their apartments, resting. No one would be stupid enough to hunt zombies at night. But there was one exception, and that was Hank. But Hank was only hiding inside the building, controlling his flying sword to hunt zombies outside. He didn''t dare to venture out at night, in case he ran into a zombie horde and could only wait to die. Huh? Just as Hank was about to hunt zombies, he noticed that all the zombies were moving in one direction. Were the zombies gathering? Hank stopped hunting zombies and frowned, thinking about what this situation meant. At night, only zombies were active in the city, but Jason Williams wasn''t idle either, working hard for Favor Points. Kira''s Favor Points +6 Kira''s Favor Points +6 Kira''s Favor Points +6 Lying in a gentle embrace, Jason Williams gradually became sleepy. Just as he was about to fall asleep, the time reached 0:00. [Ding, the zombie hunting time begins. All zombies at night will hunt down the three teams with the lowest scores until dawn.] Jason Williams and Kira suddenly widened their eyes. They had just finished fighting and hadn''t fallen asleep yet, so they naturally heard this system prompt. On the other hand, Ellie, lying in Jason Williams'' arms, was sleeping soundly, drooling, and didn''t know what was happening. But Jason Williams was already breaking out in a cold sweat. Now all the zombies were hunting down the last three teams, which meant that Ellie''s location was already known to all the zombies. "Quick, get up and get dressed! We have to leave here!" Jason Williams said seriously. Kira was on the verge of tears. "Hubby, my legs are still weak." "Don''t be afraid. Get dressed first. I''ll carry you later," Jason Williams comforted Kira, signaling her not to panic. Then Jason Williams woke up Ellie, explaining the current situation as he put on his clothes. Ah!? Ellie''s hair was messy, and she was still groggy, not fully awake. When she reacted, she was startled. "I... I''m being hunted by all the zombies now?" Ellie''s face turned pale, and she immediately grabbed Jason Williams. "You can''t abandon me! I gave you my virginity!" Jason Williams flicked Ellie''s head hard. "If you don''t want to die, hurry up and put on your clothes! By the way, send out the bee swarm to scout the surrounding area." "Okay, okay," Ellie nodded quickly. She was now completely lost, and her only reliance was Jason Williams. She would do whatever Jason Williams said, guaranteeing to be obedient. The three quickly put on their clothes. Food and weapons were no longer necessary to bring. The only thing they needed to take was Ellie''s beehive. Ellie put on the beehive and looked at Jason Williams expectantly, afraid that Jason Williams would dislike her for being a burden and abandon her. Kira''s legs were weak, and she also looked at Jason Williams. She thought she would recover after sleeping for one night, but she didn''t expect to be in such a predicament. Jason Williams also had a headache looking at the two women. The two women had difficulty moving, making it impossible to escape the zombie siege. But Jason Williams couldn''t bring himself to abandon the women and run away alone, so he could only keep the two women by his side and protect them. Their location had been exposed. Jason Williams didn''t dare to leave Kira alone, only taking Ellie to escape. So, it was safest to keep the two women by his side. Jason Williams squatted down, allowing Ellie, who was carrying the beehive, to lie on his back. Then he synthesized a towel to tie himself and Ellie together, fixing them in place. Ensuring that Ellie could always stay on his back. Then Jason Williams had Kira lie in his arms. Jason Williams then carried Kira in his left arm, held the wooden spear in his right hand, and carried Ellie and the beehive on his back. "Don''t be afraid, my ladies! Watch how Hubby leads you out of here!" As insurance, Jason Williams also exchanged seven D-rank Attribute Orbs, strengthening his speed attribute to D+ rank. Only then did he jump straight out of the window 50 - Ellies Devoted Jason Williams, carrying the two women, jumped to the ground floor, killed a few zombies with his wooden spear, and then asked, "Ellie, what''s the situation with the bee swarm''s scouting? Which direction has fewer zombies?" Ellie had already followed Jason Williams'' instructions, sending the bee swarm to scout the surrounding area, and now bees were flying back from all directions. Dozens of bees were flying around the three of them, looking like they had stirred up a beehive. Ellie, lying on Jason Williams'' back, communicated information with the surrounding bees. Soon, Ellie pointed in one direction: "That way, that way has fewer zombies. The hordes haven''t gathered yet" Actually, the three of them weren''t surrounded by zombies yet thanks to Jason Williams slaughtering a lot of zombies nearby during the day. Otherwise, the downstairs would have been full of zombie hordes already. With a direction, Jason Williams didn''t dare to delay and started running for his life with the two women. What he had to do now was quickly run out of the zombie horde''s encirclement. Otherwise, he could only wait to die when he encountered high-level zombies. Jason Williams was very fast. Even with two burdens on his body, the zombies couldn''t catch up. At the same time, Ellie wasn''t idle, sending all the bees to scout the surrounding area. Now, the bee swarm was Jason Williams'' eyes, very important, at least ensuring that Jason Williams wouldn''t run into the zombie horde. Under Ellie''s command, Jason Williams stopped and went, running in circles in the city. But Ellie''s face was getting more and more flustered. No matter how fast Jason Williams carried her, the zombies in the city were constantly gathering towards her. The final result would only be nowhere to escape. After killing a few zombies with his wooden spear, Jason Williams also noticed this problem. He began to think about how to break the situation. Soon, Jason Williams understood that the key problem was with Ellie. "We can''t keep running like this. Ellie, you have to kill zombies to increase your score and raise your ranking." "As long as you''re not in the last three, you won''t be hunted by zombies." That''s right! Kira and Ellie''s eyes lit up at the same time. This was really the only way to break the situation at the moment. Kira quickly opened the leaderboard, wanting to see how many points Ellie needed to surpass the fourth-to-last place. But after taking a look, her face changed drastically: "Hubby, two names are missing from the leaderboard. Ellie''s ranking has risen to 98th. The original 98th and 99th place must have been killed by zombies." Jason Williams nodded, indicating that he understood. The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings. They were already considered fast responders. Other teams couldn''t escape the zombie encirclement like him. And even Jason Williams couldn''t have escaped until now without Ellie''s bee swarm''s help. Getting back to the point, Ellie wanted to get rid of being hunted by zombies, so her ranking had to rise to at least 95th. And in Jason Williams'' opinion, 95th place wasn''t safe at all. Who knew how many teams would die tonight? Jason Williams could see that this leaderboard was a death list. The lower the ranking, the faster you died. No one could slack off. The reward of six Attribute Orbs wasn''t so easy to get. So, Jason Williams decided to increase Ellie''s score. Taking advantage of the fact that there were no zombies around, Jason Williams put Ellie down from his back, then had Kira carry the beehive on his back. The two women''s positions had to be switched to make it easier for Ellie to hunt zombies. Jason Williams tied Kira to himself with a towel and exchanged twelve Attribute Orbs for Ellie. After taking out the twelve Attribute Orbs, Jason Williams only had a pitiful 2 Favor Points left. "Ellie, strengthen your Strength and Speed, and get ready to kill zombies." Ellie looked at the handful of Attribute Orbs in her hand, first in shock, then with tears in her eyes. At this moment, she truly realized the benefits of becoming Jason Williams'' woman. Jason Williams'' responsibility moved her deeply. Because Jason Williams could completely abandon her and run away with Kira. But Jason Williams never gave up on her, and even gave her twelve Attribute Orbs. This value exceeded the reward of the leaderboard. "Jason, thank you I''ll be your woman forever." Ellie''s Favor Points +5 At this moment, Ellie completely returned her heart to Jason Williams. Jason Williams smiled and exchanged six more Attribute Orbs for Ellie. "Strengthen your Physique as well. You''re going to kill a lot of zombies tonight." Ellie took the six Attribute Orbs, a little dazed looking at the eighteen Attribute Orbs she was holding. Jason Williams was too generous. Giving out eighteen Attribute Orbs at once? Who would believe it? But Jason Williams'' actions weren''t over yet. He synthesized a pair of Combat Boots and a wooden spear for Ellie. Seeing that Ellie was holding the Attribute Orbs but hadn''t absorbed them, Jason Williams flicked her little head hard. "What are you thinking about? Quickly absorb the Attribute Orbs and put on the combat boots." "Okay, okay," Ellie felt the pain in her forehead, waking up and answering in a panic. Kira, lying on Jason Williams'' back, giggled. This sister was clearly stunned by the generosity. She had said before that becoming Jason Williams'' woman would never be regretted. Ellie absorbed the eighteen Attribute Orbs, strengthening her Strength, Speed, and Physique to E+ rank. By the way, Ellie had opened a Bronze Chest before and had obtained six Attribute Orbs, which she had strengthened in Spirit. Because controlling bee swarms required Spiritual Power. Now Ellie''s four attributes were all E+ rank. And Kira''s three attributes were E+ rank, and her Spirit attribute was E- rank. In terms of attributes, Ellie was even stronger than Kira, plus her bee-controlling ability, she was simply a little invincible. Especially after Ellie put on the Combat Boots, her Speed attribute became D- rank, making her feel a little cocky. But Jason Williams wasn''t cocky, carrying Kira and holding Ellie as he escaped the zombie horde''s pursuit in the city. If they encountered a small number of zombies, he would directly let Ellie solve them. If they encountered a large number of zombies, he would run away immediately. The bee swarm''s role in this was very important, allowing Jason Williams and the two women to never be surrounded by the zombie horde. The number of zombies Ellie killed gradually increased, and her score also rose steadily. Besides being responsible for running, Jason Williams also guided Ellie''s combat experience on the side. The most relaxed one was Kira. She was almost asleep lying on Jason Williams'' back. At this time, most of the teams in the city were panicked. They were all awakened in the middle of the night by the system prompt. Everyone knew that the zombies were hunting down the bottom three teams, and would continue to hunt them down until dawn. This made those teams who had chosen to slack off regret it. Especially the teams ranked in the eighties and nineties, they had already started to panic. Because the names on the leaderboard were decreasing. "No, we can''t sit still and wait for death. Let''s go, let''s kill zombies to improve our ranking." Some teams, not afraid of the night, went out to kill zombies. Soon, all the teams noticed that the scores of some names were rising. Everyone wasn''t stupid and understood what this meant. So, everyone couldn''t sit still and went out at night to hunt zombies, increasing their team''s ranking. Involution appeared between the teams. And the most calm at night were the top ten teams. The zombies couldn''t possibly come to hunt them tonight, so they might as well take advantage of the night to sleep more, nourish their spirits, and kill more zombies during the day. 51 - The Bleak Reality of Escape World Night. As the number of people on the leaderboard continued to decrease, those teams who were slacking off during the day couldn''t sit still any longer and went out to hunt zombies to increase their scores. This situation made it more difficult for Sophie to improve her ranking. Everyone was hunting zombies to increase their points, and Sophie wasn''t necessarily faster than other teams, not to mention she had to run away to avoid being surrounded by hordes of zombies. In addition, the constant reduction in the number of people on the leaderboard meant that Sophie couldn''t shake off the bottom three teams. After killing a zombie with a wooden spear, Sophie quickly opened the leaderboard to check her ranking. She was currently ranked 92nd, the third from the bottom. She only needed to rise one more place to escape the zombie horde. But soon, the last place disappeared from the leaderboard, and Sophie''s ranking naturally became the second from the bottom. "How could this be..." Sophie felt a little aggrieved. The leaderboard seemed to be playing a joke on her, always keeping her within the bottom three. In addition, other teams'' scores were also rising, making it difficult to climb the ranks, leaving Sophie feeling powerless and almost in tears. At this moment, Jason pulled Sophie into his arms: "We need to move, which direction has fewer zombies?" "Jason, I..." Sophie''s lips trembled, her voice tinged with a sob. Jason realized that Sophie''s emotions were off. He kissed her trembling lips to comfort her. Their eyes met, and Jason looked into Sophie''s tearful eyes. "What are you afraid of when I''m here? Don''t worry, I won''t leave you behind." "Just tell me quickly, which direction has fewer zombies? I don''t want to die here. I haven''t had enough of the beautiful women in this world yet." "Pfft~." Sophie chuckled through her tears. She didn''t expect Jason to still be thinking about picking up women at this time. So she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and immediately pointed Jason in a direction. Jason held Sophie in one arm, carrying Kira, who was dozing on his back, and quickly fled in the direction Sophie indicated. In this sleepless night, the number of people on the leaderboard continued to decrease. But in everyone''s eyes, the leaderboard was like a book of life and death. As long as you become one of the bottom three, it doesn''t matter where you hide. Some people tried to hide in tall buildings, blocking the doors. But in the face of the endless zombie horde, the zombies piled up into mountains of corpses, climbed to the top of the buildings, and then broke through the windows to kill those inside. This narrative has been purloined without the author''s approval. Report any appearances on Amazon. Some people hid in basements, thinking they could escape the zombies'' pursuit. But the advanced zombies were not just for show, and directly dug the hiders out of the basement. Unless someone had a combination like Jason and Sophie, with night reconnaissance abilities and the speed and strength to escape zombie hordes. Otherwise, they could only wait for death. In short, no one wanted to be one of the bottom three teams. They didn''t know how long they had been running. After Sophie killed many zombies, her ranking finally rose and she was no longer one of the bottom three. Jason and the two women finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Great, the zombies are finally not chasing us anymore." Sophie''s legs went weak and she fell into Jason''s arms. Kira laughed: "I told you, we''d be fine." After they were safe, Kira snuggled on Jason''s back, her face filled with happiness. This made her think of the good times when they hugged each other before getting into the RV. She actually liked this feeling of hanging on Jason. Jason wanted her to get down, but Kira refused. Jason was a little confused. He didn''t know that Kira had developed a strange hobby of liking to hang on him. After Sophie''s ranking rose, Jason immediately led the two women into a building. Soon, the pursuing zombie horde began to disperse. "Let''s rest here for a while." Jason looked at Sophie. The girl''s face was covered in sweat, but there was a look of joy from escaping death. During this time, Sophie was responsible for reconnaissance and killing zombies, which exhausted the bee-controlling girl. Both her mind and body were greatly depleted. Jason saw Sophie''s hair sticking to her sweaty face and reached out to help straighten it. Then he conjured up a towel to wipe her sweat. "We can''t be careless. Once the zombie horde disperses, Sophie, you need to continue killing zombies to improve your ranking." "Okay." Sophie nodded, took the towel, wiped the sweat from her cheeks, and looked at Jason with a changed expression. After tonight, she truly felt love for Jason. Only by going through life and death together can you truly experience the sense of security of having a man protect you. If it weren''t for the wrong occasion, Sophie would want to collect the ''vehicle fare'' now. Jason naturally didn''t know what Sophie was thinking. What Jason was wondering now was how Sophie had survived in this copy world in her previous life. It couldn''t have been David who saved her. Did Sophie have some ability to kill zombies that she hadn''t discovered herself? Jason looked at the swarm of bees flying around Sophie, a thoughtful expression on his face. "Sophie, can your swarm evolve? Or give birth to other species..." "It can''t evolve, and I can only control honeybees and wasps," Sophie replied. Jason nodded, but kept this in mind. "By the way, Sophie, what level is your vehicle?" "A-Rank. I found it in the underground garage of a flower shop." Sophie now completely trusted Jason and didn''t hide the information about her vehicle. After waiting for a while, the zombie horde outside the building had dispersed. Jason carried Kira on his back and led Sophie to continue killing zombies. This time, without the pursuit and encirclement of zombie hordes, Jason and Sophie completely let go of their hands and feet to kill zombies. They no longer had to worry about running away after killing a few zombies. As long as there were no large zombie hordes with advanced zombies, there was no danger to Jason. Jason and Sophie''s scores began to rise rapidly. Their ranking also began to slowly improve. The sky gradually brightened, and everyone finally got through the night. The zombies no longer gathered and began to wander around. Jason opened the leaderboard. Sophie had risen to 75th place, but there were only 83 teams left on the list. Seventeen teams had disappeared overnight. At this rate of death, by the fifth day, all the teams would be almost dead. Hiss~ Jason gasped. The problem of the zombie world was here. Sophie was always paying attention to Jason. Seeing that Jason''s face was not good, she quickly asked. "Jason, what''s wrong?" Jason shook his head and didn''t tell Sophie his thoughts for the time being. "It''s nothing, Sophie, can your bee swarm find our original residence?" "We''ve been busy all night, it''s time for us to go back and rest." The three of them were not in good condition, especially Sophie, who had consumed a lot of mental and physical strength. If it weren''t for Jason carrying her to escape every time, she wouldn''t even have the strength to kill zombies. Sophie had the help of her bee swarm, naturally knew the location of their original residence. So Jason carried Sophie and Kira on his back and quickly rushed back to their residence. The three of them ate something simple and then fell asleep on the bed. 52 - An Unlikely Alliance The next day, at noon. The harsh sunlight shone through the window, Jason and the two women had slept all morning, their physical and mental strength fully recovered, and they woke up one after another. Jason opened his eyes and stretched. The fatigue from being chased by zombies all night had long since disappeared. "Alright, everyone, get up." Jason signaled the two women to get out of bed and stop clinging to him. They still had to go kill zombies later. The two women giggled and ignored Jason, getting up together and going to the living room to whisper secrets. Jason saw that the two women had a close relationship and didn''t say anything. With the experience of being chased by zombies together last night, they had built a deep friendship. The three of them ate some bread and prepared to hunt zombies again. Jason looked at the leaderboard. He was still in first place with over 2800 points. Second place was Frank Lawson, with over 2500 points. Third place was Joseph, with over 1600 points. Eightieth place was Sophie, with over 300 points. After resting all morning, Sophie''s ranking had dropped a lot again, and she was now the fourth from the bottom. Now, no team dared to slack off. No one wanted their ranking to be low, making them the target of zombies at night. Therefore, everyone was trying their best to hunt more zombies. Jason led the two women downstairs, preparing to hunt zombies, but found eight people waiting for him downstairs. These eight people probably belonged to two teams. One team consisted of three Taoists wearing Taoist robes, and the other team was led by a man in military uniform, followed by four subordinates holding wooden spears. These eight people looked at the two beauties following Jason and were a little surprised. They didn''t expect the first-ranked Jason to be so good at enjoying himself, with two beautiful women accompanying him. They were all a little envious. More than ten people stood downstairs, looking at each other. Jason was the first to react. He recognized the man in military uniform as Frank Lawson, and the young man in the lead wearing a Taoist robe should be Sonny Zendt. These two were both strong people in their previous lives. He didn''t expect them to appear here together, they must be here to find him. At this time, the young man in the lead wearing a Taoist robe quickly stood up and spoke: "Brother Jason, we have no malice, please don''t misunderstand." The author''s tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. "Let me introduce myself, I am Sonny Zendt, ranked sixth, and this is Frank Lawson, ranked second." "We are here to find you, we want to cooperate." Cooperate? Jason couldn''t help but turn his gaze to Sophie. That''s what she said when she came to him yesterday. These people shouldn''t be looking for him to provide free food and drinks, right? "Tell me, what do you want to cooperate on?" Jason said indifferently. Sonny Zendt organized his words and quickly said: "My ability can calculate heavenly secrets, for example, I calculated that you live here." "I also calculated that if all teams continue to act alone in the future, our results will all be death." "Based on the calculation of twenty teams dying every night, everyone will be killed by zombies in six and seven days." "The only solution is to hunt down advanced zombies." "So I hope to organize all the teams and hunt down advanced zombies together." Sonny Zendt said a lot in one breath, but clearly expressed the problems and solutions of the zombie world. Frank Lawson didn''t speak. He obviously agreed with Sonny Zendt''s proposal, otherwise he wouldn''t be here. The eyes of the two teams were focused on Jason. They were all curious about what the first-ranked Jason was thinking. Jason nodded secretly. He had also seen the situation that the Divine Calculator said, but he didn''t know the solution. So Jason asked: "Why will killing advanced zombies solve this problem?" "I think we should kill more ordinary zombies and reduce the number of zombie hordes. That''s the correct solution." Jason expressed his views and guesses. Sonny Zendt couldn''t help but light up when he heard Jason say this. Jason didn''t refute his point of view, but expressed his own thoughts. From Jason''s words, he heard that Jason had also discovered this problem, so his persuasion was half successful. Sonny Zendt quickly explained: "There are too many ordinary zombies, we can''t kill them all." "But advanced zombies are different. There are only a hundred of them, the same number as our teams." "As long as we kill these hundred advanced zombies, the zombie''s night action will be without command, we can hide upstairs, and the zombie hordes can''t do anything to us." "Oh?" Jason''s eyes lit up, feeling that what Sonny Zendt said made sense. He just wasn''t sure if it was true. If there were no more advanced zombies, ordinary zombies would only act on instinct at night and couldn''t climb buildings. It would even be difficult to gather together. And according to the Divine Calculator, there were only a hundred advanced zombies, which was a bit interesting. It looked like a duel between two races. Humans hunted zombies during the day, and zombies hunted humans at night, to see who could survive after seven days. Interesting. Jason finally understood the mechanism of the zombie world. In their previous lives, Sophie, Divine Calculator, Frank Lawson, David Lee and others were able to survive this copy because they killed all the advanced zombies within seven days. So Jason smiled and looked at a few people: "There is a large zombie horde of eight or nine hundred zombies nearby. Are you interested in trying to hunt down advanced zombies with me?" Divine Calculator and Frank Lawson looked at each other. They obviously didn''t expect Jason to be so impatient. So Sonny Zendt quickly explained: "Brother Jason, don''t be impulsive. Large zombie hordes are not easy to deal with." "And there are advanced zombie commanders in the zombie horde. We are too few people. There is no difference between going there and sending ourselves to death." Frank Lawson also nodded beside him: "I have tried to hunt down advanced zombies. Their IQ is very high. Even if I hid in the distance, I was almost surrounded by zombie hordes." Obviously, both of them had been in contact with large zombie hordes and were a little afraid of advanced zombies. Sonny Zendt quickly said his idea of ??dealing with large zombie hordes, which was to find twenty or thirty teams. Then send weak people to lure away ordinary zombies, and organize high-end combat forces like Jason and Frank Lawson to hunt down advanced zombies. This was the most effective and safe way. Their current problem was how to organize twenty or thirty teams. Sonny Zendt wanted to organize the top twenty or thirty teams with the appeal of Jason, Frank Lawson, and Joseph. Jason waved his hand: "That''s too much trouble, we can try hunting an advanced zombie first." "You two groups should have no problem luring away half of the zombies, and the rest will be left to us." Um... Frank Lawson and Sonny Zendt glanced at each other, they didn''t expect Jason to be so confident. Frank Lawson was the first to react, agreeing with Jason''s proposal: "If we can hunt down an advanced zombie, it will be more convincing to organize other teams..." "And I also want to see your strength, how come your score is rising faster than mine." Seeing Frank Lawson say this, Sonny Zendt gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement. The three groups immediately negotiated tactics to deal with the large zombie horde. 53 - Hunting the Brute A small park in the city. Nearly a thousand zombies were gathered here, all under the command of an advanced zombie with a height of three meters and muscles all over its body. Unlike those zombies that wandered around, the zombies here were all gathered together, densely packed, like an army. If anyone dared to provoke them, they would be instantly swallowed by the zombie horde, without any resistance. Outside the small park. Three young men wearing Taoist robes frowned. "Senior brother, are there really only eight or nine hundred zombies here? I feel like there are more than a thousand," one of the Taoists asked. Sonny Zendt shook his head, he didn''t know how many zombies were here either. However, for safety''s sake, Sonny Zendt pinched his fingers and calculated a divination for his three brothers. "It''s okay, be careful, it''s not very dangerous." The two junior brothers next to him breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. The three Taoists then mustered up their courage and shouted loudly to attract the attention of the zombie horde. Roar~ Roars kept ringing out from the zombie horde, as if giving some kind of order. Immediately afterwards, all the zombies moved and chased after the three men. If you looked from the air, you would find that the zombie horde was like a big hand, surrounding Sonny Zendt and the other two. Run! Sonny Zendt and the other two were so frightened that they turned around and ran. They didn''t dare to stand there and wait for the zombies to surround them. With the command of advanced zombies, the speed of the zombie horde was obviously much faster than that of ordinary zombies, and they even ran, the scene was quite shocking. Sonny Zendt and the other three were so frightened that they couldn''t help but increase their speed by a few points, running away according to the prescribed route. Their purpose was to lead the large zombie horde away from the park. In the zombie horde, the advanced zombie that was more than three meters tall was very conspicuous. It didn''t see that Sonny Zendt and the other three were luring it. It was just chasing humans according to its instinct. So this advanced zombie kept roaring to speed up the zombie horde, trying to catch up with Sonny Zendt and the others. However, although the speed of the zombie horde was increased, the originally dense formation actually had a tendency to disperse. Roar~ The advanced zombie urged the zombie horde again, not to let the three humans in front run away. However, it didn''t realize at this moment that its zombie horde formation was like a long snake, chasing Sonny Zendt and the other three in the city. In particular, the escape route of Sonny Zendt and the other three was pre-determined, gradually fleeing into the building complex, allowing the zombie horde to be blocked by the terrain. The three men led the zombie horde to escape in the city. Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there. Just as the zombie horde was chasing and killing, a flying sword flew from behind. After slaughtering several zombies in front of the advanced zombie, it flew leisurely to the rear. Roar~ The advanced zombie roared angrily. It felt that it had been provoked and looked in the direction of the flying sword, a man in military uniform was waving at it. Roar~ The advanced zombie roared and led the zombie horde to chase after it. However, half of the zombie horde in front was still chasing Sonny Zendt and the other three, completely unaware that their leader had shifted their target. So the zombie horde actually split into two parts, one part was still chasing Sonny Zendt and the other three, and the other part turned around to chase Frank Lawson. At this time, the advanced zombie hadn''t realized anything yet. But half of its zombie horde was missing. This advanced zombie led the remaining half of the zombie horde to chase Frank Lawson. In the next halfway, four more men holding wooden spears jumped out and lured away some zombies. These four men were Frank Lawson''s followers, and their mission was to further lure away some zombies. These four men didn''t lure away many zombies, about seventy or eighty each, but the four of them together lured away two or three hundred zombies. Now there were only one or two hundred zombies left around the advanced zombie chasing Frank Lawson. At this time, the advanced zombie finally discovered the problem. Not only was its zombie horde small in number, but it was also very scattered due to the chase all the way. Humans were gradually luring away its zombie horde. The not-so-smart IQ of the advanced zombie also understood something. However, the advanced zombie didn''t care. The zombies that were lured away were nothing to it. Even if they were all lured away, there was no loss. It wasn''t a zombie that relied on its subordinate zombie horde to fight. Moreover, during the day, it took a lot of mental power for advanced zombies to command ordinary zombies. If it commanded too many zombies, its brain would be dizzy and uncomfortable. So the fewer zombies it commanded during the day, the better its state would be. This was also the reason why it could now understand that the zombie horde was lured away by humans. Moreover, there was also a difference in strength between advanced zombies. The stronger the advanced zombie, the fewer zombies it commanded during the day. On the other hand, those advanced zombies that commanded thousands of zombies were actually the weakest and had no sense of security, so they would command a large number of zombies. This advanced zombie was very confident in its own strength. That''s why it allowed its subordinate zombie horde to chase humans and then leave its control. This advanced zombie now wanted to see what tricks humans were playing. It didn''t believe that it would be hunted by humans. Just as the advanced zombie was leading a small number of zombie hordes to chase Frank Lawson, Jason led Kira and Sophie to suddenly kill from the corner. The three men directly killed the advanced zombie. The scene was suddenly chaotic. Some zombies were still chasing Frank Lawson, while others were killing Jason and the other three, and then were stabbed to death by wooden spears. "I''ll leave the ordinary zombies to you." Jason said to the two women beside him. Kira quickly poked several zombies to death with a wooden spear, and then smiled: "Hubby, come on, I believe you." "Jason, don''t worry about killing that big guy. Leave these ordinary zombies to me and Sister Kira." Sophie patted her small chest, very confident. She still wanted to kill more zombies to increase her score today. Sophie didn''t want to be chased by zombies for another night. As for whether Jason could defeat the advanced zombies, the sisters weren''t worried at all. They had already seen how strong Jason was last night. If even Jason couldn''t defeat the advanced zombies, then everyone could only wait for death in this world. Jason smiled indifferently, holding a wooden spear and quickly killing the advanced zombie. During this period, ordinary zombies were blocking the way, but were instantly killed by Jason. With Jason''s D+ level speed, how could these zombies block it? Moreover, the zombie horde was not only small in number, but also sparsely formed, completely losing the dense feeling it had in the park. Ordinary zombies were even less of a threat to Jason. Jason quickly came to the advanced zombie with muscles all over his body and threw a spear, stabbing the advanced zombie in the head. However, the wooden spear only scratched a little skin on the zombie''s head. Roar~ The advanced zombie roared and punched Jason. Boom! The advanced zombie''s fist hit the ground, gravel flew, the ground burst, but Jason easily dodged, his speed far exceeded that of the zombie. However, the advanced zombie didn''t end with just one punch. It frantically hammered Jason with both arms like a gorilla. Boom boom boom... The advanced zombie''s speed was not slow, and its arms were blurred, and the ground was destroyed as if it had been bombarded by countless shells, without a single complete place. Roar~ The advanced zombie chased Jason and smashed wildly. Jason easily dodged all of them. He was much faster than the advanced zombie. It looked like he was playing with the advanced zombie. In fact, Jason wasn''t playing with the advanced zombie. He was adapting to the opponent''s fighting style. This zombie was very difficult to deal with. Not only was it huge, but its strength and speed were not bad, and its fighting style was also very wild. Jason didn''t dare to be careless. Once he was hit, Jason would be injured. So he had to dodge every attack of the advanced zombie and didn''t dare to resist it head-on. 54 - A Flying Sword Descends Kira and Sophie quickly cleared the zombies on the scene, but their eyes would occasionally look towards the direction where Jason was fighting the advanced zombie. The oppressive feeling of this advanced zombie was too strong. A casual blow could smash the ground, making the two women even more worried about Jason''s safety. Kira gritted her teeth and stabbed a few zombies to death with a wooden spear, and then urged the absent-minded Sophie. "Sophie, stop looking, kill these ordinary zombies quickly." "Okay, okay." Sophie quickly nodded. The only thing they could do now was to help Jason clear these zombie small fries. The one hundred or so ordinary zombies on the scene were nothing to the two women. At this time, Jason was in a very difficult situation. It was difficult for him to cause damage to the advanced zombie. The problem appeared on the wooden spear. The wooden spear in Jason''s hand was obviously unable to keep up with this level of combat. A 5 Escape Coins weapon was difficult to kill ordinary beasts, let alone killing advanced zombies. What a joke. Jason needed at least a 1-star melee weapon to cause damage to zombies. Now Jason could only rely on his own speed to entangle the zombies, and then use wooden spears to cause weak damage to them. Jason dodged the advanced zombie''s fierce hammer and quickly jumped back, pulling away five or six meters, and threw the wooden spear in his hand with all his strength. Whoosh Thump~ The wooden spear lodged in the advanced zombie''s shoulder, but was blocked by the advanced zombie''s muscles and bones, only the tip penetrated its body. Roar~ The advanced zombie roared and casually pulled out the wooden spear from its shoulder. This didn''t cause much damage to it at all. Even not much blood flowed out. The advanced zombie''s muscles and bones were its best defense, and its only weakness was its head. Even if its body was pierced by a wooden spear, it wouldn''t affect anything. Unless the wooden spear could penetrate its brain, Jason couldn''t kill this advanced zombie. On the other hand, as long as the advanced zombie hit Jason with one punch, the victory would be immediately clear. At this time, Jason was already planning to give up hunting advanced zombies. On the other side, not far away. Frank Lawson knew that Jason had taken action when he saw that there were only dozens of zombies following him. So Frank Lawson shook off the zombies behind him and returned to find Jason and the others. Soon he came to the scene, and Frank Lawson saw Jason and the advanced zombie entangled in battle, and Kira and Sophie were slaughtering ordinary zombies. This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it. Sure enough, he was impressive. Frank Lawson looked at Jason entangled with the advanced zombie, and couldn''t help but admire him in his heart. He finally knew where the gap between him and Jason was. The attributes of the two were not on the same level. If Frank Lawson himself faced this advanced zombie, he would be smashed into meat pie in an instant. "No, I, Frank Lawson, must help." Frank Lawson was never a person who stood idly by. Seeing Jason and the others killing zombies, he decided to help. He immediately manipulated the flying sword to help Kira and the two women slaughter zombies. He couldn''t afford to provoke advanced zombies, but could he still not kill ordinary zombies? The flying sword suddenly appeared and quickly slaughtered zombies, startling Kira and the two women. However, seeing that the flying sword only killed zombies and didn''t attack them, the two women were relieved a lot. Although they were wondering where the flying sword came from, they still concentrated on killing zombies. After Jason entangled with the advanced zombie for a while, he had decided to run away. He couldn''t kill this advanced zombie unless he could get a good weapon. Jason looked towards Kira and the two women, wanting to notify them to run away quickly. But the result was that he saw a flying sword constantly slaughtering zombies. Huh? Jason''s eyes lit up, and he stared at the flying sword that was flying around in the air. This flying sword looked extremely sharp, and killing zombies'' heads was like playing, but the flying speed was too slow. Otherwise, it would have been able to sever the advanced zombie''s head. It was really a good wild flying sword. Jason was excited. His luck was really good. He was short of weapons to kill zombies, and as a result, a flying sword flew in from nowhere. What was the son of luck? Jason finally knew now, it was him! It was just that the flying sword was a little arrogant. What was the point of killing ordinary zombies? Why didn''t it hurry up and fly into his hands to recognize its owner. However, Jason could also understand. This flying sword looked like it had spirituality, and it was normal to have some defects in its personality. After all, only such a flying sword had the sense of achievement of subduing it. While Jason was entangled with the advanced zombie, he approached the flying sword. No one on the scene noticed that Jason was intentionally approaching the flying sword. Everyone thought that Jason and the advanced zombie happened to be fighting near the flying sword. Suddenly, Jason seized the opportunity and pounced on the flying sword. The speed was so fast that even the advanced zombie didn''t react. Jason grabbed the flying sword directly in his hand like catching a dragonfly, and then laughed as if he had found a treasure. Not far away, Frank Lawson in military uniform was stunned. "Wait, that''s my sword!" You, Jason, and the advanced zombie fought so wonderfully, why did you suddenly grab his flying sword? Frank Lawson wanted to control the flying sword to break free from Jason, but the flying sword was tightly grabbed by Jason in his hand, and it couldn''t fly away at all. Frank Lawson''s face was flushed, but he couldn''t break free. Jason didn''t care that the flying sword wanted to fly away from his hand, and stylishly showed off a sword flower, and rushed towards the advanced zombie. Damn it, now that he had a weapon, he would kill you. Jason had been hammered by the advanced zombie for so long, and he had long been resentful in his heart. His speed and strength were stronger than the opponent, but because of the weapon, he couldn''t break the opponent''s muscle defense. Now the battle should be reversed. I saw Jason quickly rushing to the advanced zombie and slashing out with the long sword in his hand. Thump~ A one-meter-long wound was immediately cut out on the advanced zombie''s chest, and dark red corpse blood was constantly flowing out of the wound. Roar~ The advanced zombie was furious, and its arms kept hammering Jason. But Jason was too fast, and it never hit Jason with a punch. However, with a weapon in his hand, Jason''s fighting style was obviously different from before. While dodging the zombie''s attack, the long sword in his hand kept slashing out. Countless sword wounds immediately appeared on the zombie''s body. After having a weapon, Jason became very violent, chasing the advanced zombie and slashing wildly. Roar~ The advanced zombie roared, and fear flashed in its eyes. It didn''t expect Jason to be so powerful after having a weapon. Now it was covered in sword wounds and looked very embarrassed. The advanced zombie was obviously cowardly and turned around to escape. However, Jason wouldn''t give it a chance, aimed at its neck and slashed out with his sword. If Frank Lawson controlled the flying sword, it wouldn''t cause much damage to the advanced zombie. But Jason''s speed and strength were too strong. The power of one sword directly severed the advanced zombie''s big head. After having a weapon, Jason''s attributes completely crushed this zombie. He won! Kira and Sophie hugged each other happily. Frank Lawson also clenched his fists excitedly in the distance. He couldn''t help but admire Jason''s fighting style just now. It was too great. However, admiration was admiration, Frank Lawson still cared about his flying sword falling into Jason''s hands. He had to get it back quickly. 55 - Mutated Hornets Jason held the advanced zombie''s big head in one hand and the long sword that wanted to struggle to fly away in the other, looking at Frank Lawson with doubt: "This sword is yours?" Frank Lawson nodded quickly. He looked at Jason''s hand that was tightly gripping the sword hilt, and couldn''t help swallowing. Damn it, this Jason wouldn''t be thinking of taking his flying sword for himself, would he? Frank Lawson even thought that if Jason killed him with a sword now, he would have nowhere to reason. Thinking of this, Frank Lawson couldn''t help but feel a thump in his heart. Sure enough, in the next second, Jason raised the flying sword and looked at it up and down: "Your name isn''t written on it, how could it be yours?" "This sword is clearly an unowned object. I just grabbed it with my own hands. You wouldn''t be impersonating, would you..." "That''s right, that''s right. I personally saw this sword flying around in the air. It didn''t have an owner at all, and you weren''t even there at the time." Sophie quickly testified from the side. This Frank Lawson was really shameless. He was actually licking his face to ask Jason for the treasure sword. If it weren''t for the sake of the cooperation just now, she would have commanded the bee swarm to sting him. Kira stood beside Jason, looking at Frank Lawson up and down. She had actually seen that this flying sword was probably this person''s, but she didn''t say anything. Faced with the scrutiny of Jason and the three, Frank Lawson was a little embarrassed, and quickly pointed to the flying sword in Jason''s hand. "This sword is my weapon. You can release the flying sword, and it will naturally fly to my side." "No way." Jason shook his head and refused: "What if the flying sword runs away when I let go? Can you afford to pay for it?" Frank Lawson was sweating profusely, he couldn''t afford to lose this flying sword. All of his strength was in this weapon. If Jason really took it away, then he would be a useless person. So Frank Lawson quickly explained: "I was really using the flying sword to help you kill zombies just now. You should be able to see that, right?" "And we have already reached a cooperative relationship. I also used the flying sword to help you kill zombies just now. How can you rob my weapon?" Seeing Frank Lawson say this, Jason also knew that this flying sword was indeed the other party''s. However, there were still 99 advanced zombies in this city, and Jason would still need to borrow Frank Lawson''s flying sword next. So Jason said: "I can return the sword to you, but I will need to borrow your flying sword to hunt advanced zombies later. If you agree, I will return it to you." Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon. "I agree, I agree." Frank Lawson quickly nodded in agreement. Jason then released the flying sword. Afterwards, the flying sword immediately flew back into Frank Lawson''s hand with a swoosh, for fear that Jason would go back on his word and snatch it back. Now that the advanced zombie had been resolved, Jason began to consider hunting other advanced zombies. This matter still needed to be discussed with others. Through Sophie''s bee swarm ability, Jason and the others quickly found Sonny Zendt and others. After everyone gathered together, they discussed how to organize other teams. After everyone discussed, they decided to contact other teams today, and then hunt advanced zombies tomorrow. Sonny Zendt took the lead and said: "I can go to the top ten teams and convince them to participate in the hunting of advanced zombies." For hunting advanced zombies, the top ten, or even the top twenty would participate without hesitation. Because this was related to whether they would be chased by zombies on the last two nights. Frank Lawson quickly said: "Let me act with the Taoist, it will be easier to convince other teams with me." In fact, Frank Lawson didn''t want to stay with Jason. He always felt that Jason was coveting his flying sword. Jason nodded in agreement. It was good that Frank Lawson and Sonny Zendt''s two teams left. Jason had no interest in taking them to kill zombies. As for how to contact other teams to cooperate, this matter was left to Sophie''s bee swarm. Jason found some paper and pens in the building, wrote the reasons for organizing the teams to hunt advanced zombies, and said that if they didn''t want to be killed by zombies at night, they would come to participate in the hunting of advanced zombies tomorrow. Then he hung the written small notes on the bodies of the bees. Then he let the bees find the various teams. After seeing the notes, those who were interested would naturally come to participate tomorrow. So everyone opened up and acted separately. Frank Lawson and Sonny Zendt''s team went to find the top ten teams, and Jason took the two women to kill zombies. Before leaving, Sonny Zendt asked Jason for the head of the advanced zombie, and Jason naturally gave it to him. With this head, other teams would also have the confidence to come and hunt advanced zombies. However, before Jason gave the head to the other party, he had dug out the crystal nucleus from the zombie''s head. It was a red crystal. [Zombie Crystal Nucleus]: Any creature can absorb it, which can strengthen attributes, but the side effect has a chance to cause mutation. Jason didn''t dare to absorb this zombie crystal nucleus himself after seeing it. What if it mutated? Sophie suddenly had a strange idea after seeing the zombie crystal nucleus. "Jason, this crystal nucleus can be absorbed by any creature, can my bee swarm absorb it?" Huh!? This could really be tried. Jason wasn''t interested in this zombie crystal nucleus, and its effect was not as good as attribute orbs. Jason and the women would definitely not absorb the zombie crystal nucleus, then the result could only be sold. However, it was also a good idea to let the hornets absorb it. "Okay, let your bee swarm try it." Jason gave the crystal nucleus to Sophie. Sophie summoned ten hornets from the beehive, and she decided to use these ten hornets to try to absorb the crystal nucleus. Sophie can currently only control two types of bee swarms, one is the honeybee swarm, which is responsible for scouting and collecting honey. The other is the hornet swarm, which is responsible for fighting and stinging people. Since the crystal nucleus can improve attributes, then it is natural to let the hornets who are responsible for fighting absorb it. Sophie commanded ten hornets to bite the crystal nucleus. Soon, the crystal nucleus was eaten clean by the ten hornets. Afterwards, the hornets lay on the ground and didn''t move. "Are they dead?" Kira asked curiously. Sophie shook her head. Her spiritual connection with the ten hornets was still there. Next, a magical scene appeared in front of Jason and the others. The bodies of the ten hornets were glowing red and actually began to expand. "They''ve mutated!" Jason couldn''t help but light up. Jason had suspected that Sophie had a way to survive the zombie world. It seemed that in her previous life, Sophie relied on the mutation of the bee swarm to survive the zombie world. The three men quietly watched the hornets mutate. After about ten minutes, the size of the ten hornets expanded to the size of a basketball, and the red light on their bodies dissipated. Jason carefully observed the ten hornets. In addition to the increase in size, the most scalp-tingling thing about these hornets was the half-meter-long coarse needle on their tails. If this were stuck in the head, it could instantly penetrate a big hole. Jason looked at Sophie and immediately asked: "How is it? Can you control these mutated hornets?" Sophie nodded and said: "I can control them... it''s just that these ten hornets want to eat... human flesh." 56 - Mutant Wasps "What? Mutant wasps want to eat human flesh?" Jason Williams jumped back, increasing the distance between himself and the wasps. He suspected that these mutant wasps might be infected like the zombies. Luckily, it seemed that Ellie could completely control these ten wasps. "How about letting the wasps kill zombies?" Jason Williams suggested. "Yeah, I feel like the mutant wasps are pretty strong. Let''s give it a try," Ellie said, her eyes full of anticipation. She naturally wanted to test the strength of the mutant wasps. If they could hunt zombies, it would significantly reduce her pressure this afternoon. Jason Williams immediately led the two women to hunt zombies. By the way, Jason Williams gained a thousand points for hunting that advanced zombie. Now, his points exceeded 3900, firmly holding the first place, unshakable. On the other hand, Ellie, with just over 300 points, had dropped to 81st place, becoming the third from the bottom. She needed to increase her points and ranking as much as possible before nightfall, or she would be chased by zombies again. The three quickly found dozens of wandering zombies. "Go," Ellie waved her small hand, and ten basketball-sized mutant wasps flew towards the zombies like drones. The mutant wasps swooped down, their half-meter-long stingers aimed at the heads of the zombies. *Thwack* The stingers penetrated the zombies'' heads. As the zombies fell, the mutant wasps quickly flapped their wings, pulling out their stingers, bringing out reddish-white sticky goo. One mutant wasp could easily kill a zombie. "Ellie, it looks like you don''t have to do anything this afternoon," Jason Williams couldn''t help but marvel. Ellie nodded excitedly. She didn''t want to kill zombies herself, as it was both disgusting and dangerous. With how easily the mutant wasps killed zombies, she didn''t need to lift a finger. Being able to hide in the back and command the wasps was too easy. Kira smiled and put her arm around Ellie''s shoulder, "Ellie, once Hubby gets more crystals in the next few days, he will let all your wasps mutate, then how powerful you will be..." Ellie shook her head helplessly. "No, controlling these ten mutant wasps takes up a lot of my mental energy. Controlling too many can easily backfire." Ellie couldn''t imagine how terrifying it would be if the mutant wasps escaped her mental control and attacked her instead. She didn''t want to have her head pierced like a zombie. Jason Williams nodded in agreement, "Ellie is right. It''s dangerous to control too many of these mutant wasps. But you can take the elite route." Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation. "After getting crystals in the future, you can continue to strengthen these ten mutant wasps." "As for your future mental energy problems, leave it all to me. I''ll take care of all your Attribute Orbs in the future." "Really!?" Ellie immediately grabbed Jason Williams''s arm. For Jason Williams to promise to take care of all her Attribute Orbs in the future was quite a feat. Seeing Jason Williams nod, Ellie excitedly kissed him on the cheek. She was overjoyed. The three stood in a corner, chatting and laughing. Watching the ten mutant wasps constantly dive from the air, hunting zombies one after another. This method was much easier than Ellie hunting zombies herself. Jason Williams wasn''t in a hurry to increase his points either. He took the two women to hide in a corner and cultivate their relationship. The ten mutant wasps became Ellie''s laborers, and Ellie''s points were rapidly increasing thanks to their efforts. For the rest of the afternoon, Ellie directed the mutant wasps to hunt zombies. Ellie''s 300-plus points actually increased to over 1500, and her ranking jumped to 23rd. Relying on ten mutant wasps for an afternoon, she surpassed sixty teams. She didn''t have to worry about being chased by zombies at night. In the afternoon, the three of them found another resource chest, which contained five bowls of Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup, Chicken Flavor The three returned to their residence before dark. At the dinner table, Jason Williams looked at the two thin slices of beef in the noodle soup, and his forehead was covered in black lines. Whose beef noodle soup is this! The amount of beef in the five bowls was barely enough to graze a cow. Although he was very unhappy, the five bowls of noodles were enough for the three of them to eat their fill. After dinner, it was completely dark. Besides the moonlight outside the window providing some brightness, the room was dark. But the city was a playground for the zombies. The sounds of zombies roaring rang out in the city. All the ordinary zombies gathered near the advanced zombies, waiting to hunt humans starting at dawn on the third day. And the teams at the bottom of the rankings didn''t dare to rest. They went out to hunt zombies in the dark, increasing their points to improve their team''s ranking. On the other hand, Jason Williams didn''t worry about this problem at all. Jason Williams and Ellie''s rankings definitely wouldn''t drop to the bottom three tonight, so they could rest easy. And Jason Williams naturally had to work hard to get More Favor Points. He had used up his Favor Points last night, leaving only 1 point, so he had to replenish them tonight. Kira +6 Favor Points Ellie +5 Favor Points Kira +6 Favor Points Ellie +5 Favor Points ... Nothing happened overnight, only the roars of zombies echoed in the night. The third day in the zombie world dawned. Jason Williams felt a tickle in his nose and scratched it. But his nose was still itchy. After scratching it several times, Jason Williams realized something was wrong. He opened his eyes slightly and saw that Kira was tickling him with her long hair. Jason Williams pretended to scratch his nose. Kira covered her mouth and giggled. She obviously found it amusing to tease Jason Williams with her hair. Just as Kira was about to tickle Jason Williams with her hair again, Jason Williams suddenly opened his eyes, yelled, and hugged Kira. "Ah~" Kira obviously didn''t expect Jason Williams to wake up suddenly and was startled. Ellie, who was next to her, was woken up by the two of them and rubbed her eyes groggily. "Jason Williams, what''s wrong with Kira?" "Ellie, save me," Kira said, was hugged by Jason Williams, and asked Ellie for help. Jason Williams picked up a pillow and threw it at the dazed Ellie. Ellie also woke up, picked up a pillow and hit Jason Williams. The three played around in the room. After playing for a while, Jason Williams let the two women go. The three ate a little food for breakfast. "Hubby, how many teams will hunt advanced zombies today?" Kira asked after finishing a bread and taking a sip of water. Jason Williams also finished the bread in his hand, took the bottled water from Kira''s hand, and took a few big gulps before swallowing the food. "Basically, the top twenty teams will come. The remaining teams are uncertain." Hunting advanced zombies was related to whether Jason Williams would be chased by zombies at night in the last two days for the top twenty teams, so they had to pay attention to it. Jason Williams opened the rankings. At this time, there were only 64 names left on the rankings. Nineteen more teams were destroyed by zombies last night. 57 - Park Gathering A Small Park. This used to be the habitat of a high-level zombie, but since Jason Williams and his team took it down yesterday, no zombies have been seen around. Now, eight or nine figures arrived at the small park. Among them were people in Taoist robes and others holding wooden spears C Sonny Zendt''s and Frank Lawson''s groups. "Are we the only ones here?" Frank Lawson wondered. This small park was supposed to be the gathering place for today''s high-level zombie hunt. But it seemed like the other teams hadn''t arrived yet. "No, there are already people over there." Suddenly, broken Chinese rang out from the group, surprising both Sonny Zendt''s and Frank Lawson''s teams. They noticed a white man standing among them, a wooden axe hanging from his waist. It was Joseph, ranked third on the leaderboard. "Joseph..." Sonny Zendt stared at the white man in astonishment. He didn''t understand when Joseph had appeared beside them. They hadn''t even noticed Joseph''s presence, which meant he must have some special ability. In any case, Joseph''s abilities felt very mysterious. Frank Lawson and the others were also startled and wary of Joseph. This foreigner was worthy of his third-place ranking; he definitely had some tricks up his sleeve. Joseph greeted them in broken Chinese, "Hi, friends... you''re finally here." Frank Lawson and the others had found Joseph yesterday and invited him to participate in the high-level zombie hunt, so Joseph recognized them. "Joseph, I didn''t expect you to arrive so early," Frank Lawson nodded to Joseph. Joseph waved his hand. "I just got here not long ago..." After exchanging greetings, they chatted idly in the park. Joseph then inquired about Jason Williams''s situation. Frank Lawson and the others weren''t surprised; almost every team asked about Jason Williams. Everyone was filled with curiosity and apprehension towards the top-ranked player. Joseph had seen Jason Williams in action, so he wanted to gather as much information as possible to avoid provoking him. By now, some teams that had arrived earlier were already in the park. They exchanged a few words with Frank Lawson and Sonny Zendt before quietly waiting for the meeting time. As time passed, more and more teams arrived. These teams, usually in groups of three to five, gathered at the small park. You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version. Everyone carried weapons for self-defense, and many were covered in bloodstains, indicating they had killed quite a few zombies. The teams that could come here were generally ranked in the top twenty or thirty. Each had their own methods for hunting zombies. Then, someone suddenly asked: "Frank Lawson, can we really kill all the high-level zombies in these two or three days? Is your plan reliable?" By now, dozens of people had gathered in the park. Many teams had only come with doubts after receiving the bee-delivered message yesterday. They didn''t have much confidence in hunting high-level zombies, but they had no other way to change anything. They could only come here to see what was happening. Then, Sonny Zendt stepped forward and explained the rules of this instance world to everyone. "Everyone, the rule of this instance world is that humans hunt high-level zombies during the day, and zombies hunt humans at night." "If we don''t kill those high-level zombies, we''ll just be waiting to die at night." "If you want to survive, you must eliminate all high-level zombies within two to three days." Although it was quite difficult, everyone had a chance to succeed if they cooperated properly. Many people frowned upon hearing this. "Although I don''t want to deny your plan, are high-level zombies really that easy to kill?" someone asked, puzzled. Some of them had tried to engage with high-level zombies, but they could only flee in disarray when faced with the overwhelming horde. Sonny Zendt helplessly spread his hands. "If high-level zombies were really that easy to kill, I wouldn''t have gathered everyone here." "Next, all of us must contribute. Those without strength will be responsible for luring away zombie hordes, and those with strength will form teams to kill high-level zombies." "We need to hunt at least thirty to forty high-level zombies every day to survive this world." The crowd fell silent upon hearing this. Outside the park, David Lee''s team arrived late. Looking at the crowd gathered in the park, David Lee complained to the Beautiful sisters beside him, "Look, there really are a lot of people gathered here." Smack! One of the Beautiful sisters slapped David Lee on the back of the head. "What are you whining about? Hurry up, we''re almost late." David Lee was almost knocked over by the Beautiful sisters'' slap. The Beautiful sisters didn''t hold back, making David Lee''s head buzz. This made David Lee hate the Beautiful sisters even more. He, the driver, was being bullied like this, it was utterly humiliating. If he had the ability, David Lee would have abandoned the Beautiful sisters immediately. Just as David Lee and his team were heading towards the park, three figures were also walking towards it from not far away. The two groups accidentally met outside the park. The Beautiful sisters and others didn''t think much of it, but David Lee''s expression changed constantly. He was initially surprised to see the two beauties, then turned angry when he saw Kira, and finally, he felt that Jason Williams looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before. A moment later, he remembered that his van seemed to have been stolen from this person. In just two or three seconds, various expressions changed on David Lee''s ugly face. Now, David Lee finally understood why Kira had tricked him into buying combat boots. It was because he had stolen Jason Williams''s van before. "Kira, you little bitch, I thought it was strange. We had no grudges, so why would you trick me into buying combat boots? It turns out you''re having an affair with this pretty boy." David Lee took the initiative to accuse Kira. Jason Williams and his team were surprised to see David Lee daring to provoke them. But after thinking about it, they understood. David Lee didn''t recognize Jason Williams, nor did he know Jason Williams''s strength. In David Lee''s opinion, Jason Williams was with two powerless beauties, so their combat power couldn''t possibly be better than his team. Before the Beautiful sisters came to the zombie world, they opened a Bronze Chest and obtained six E-Rank Attribute Orbs, strengthening their strength to E+ Rank. One of the Beautiful sisters was wearing combat boots, so her speed was also E+ Rank. David Lee had also strengthened his physique to E+ Rank because of the van''s attribute bonus. Plus, with the two adult men, Monty and Son, their team''s combat power wasn''t bad, otherwise, they wouldn''t have made it into the top ten on the leaderboard. "Kira, hand over a pair of combat boots right now, or we won''t be polite!" David Lee held a fire axe, a lewd grin on his ugly face. The Beautiful sisters and the others heard David Lee''s words and understood that the people who had tricked David Lee into buying combat boots were the group in front of them. "David Lee, are they the ones who tricked you into buying combat boots?" One of the Beautiful sisters asked sternly. Seeing David Lee nod, one of the Beautiful sisters rolled up her sleeves, preparing to fight, but after noticing that all three of them were wearing combat boots, she immediately frowned. 58 - Park Encounter Beautiful sisters, upon noticing the combat boots worn by Jason Williams and his companions, correctly gauged their strength. A regular person donning combat boots would experience an E+ level boost in speed and a significant increase in combat power. Her younger sister, Chloe, was a prime example. Consequently, even with their numerical advantage, they stood little chance against Jason Williams and his team. Thus, Beautiful sisters addressed David Lee and the others, "We''re here today to hunt high-level zombies. There''s no need to start a conflict over something like this." "Let''s just drop it and meet up at the park." Beautiful sisters winked at Chloe, signaling for her sister''s support. Having grown up together, they understood each other implicitly. Although Chloe didn''t quite grasp Beautiful sisterss desire to avoid confrontation, she unconditionally supported her sister. Chloe spoke up, "Beautiful sisters is right. Our priority should be killing zombies and surviving in this world, not engaging in disputes with other groups." Having Beautiful sisters and Chloe state their position, they made it clear that they wished to avoid any conflict with Jason Williams and his party. Monty and Son exchanged glances, secretly wishing they could subdue Jason Williams and claim the two beauties for themselves, each taking one. However, with Beautiful sisters and Chloe against it, they reluctantly yielded. After all, Beautiful sisters and Chloe were the leading voices in their group. However, David Lee, standing nearby, protested, yelling, "How can we just let it go like that? That bitch scammed me out of so many supplies..." *SMACK!* Before David Lee could finish his sentence, Jason Williams delivered a swift and brutal slap, sending him sprawling to the ground. The force of this slap far surpassed the one Beautiful sisters had delivered earlier. The Beautiful sisters and their companions paled, taken aback by Jason Williams''s sudden attack, which had instantly floored David Lee, a man with an E+ physique. Stunned, David Lee lay on the ground, ears ringing, his head spinning, disoriented. Jason Williams planted his foot on David Lee''s face, his expression icy. "You dare insult my woman? You''ve got a death wish." The reason Jason Williams had acted without hesitation was that David Lee had insulted Kira. He had been looking for an opportunity to deal with David Lee and wasn''t about to stand by while he hurled insults at Kira. Beautiful sisters, Chloe, Monty and Son immediately tensed, drawing their weapons and aiming them at Jason Williams. While David Lee might not hold much sway within the group, he was, after all, their RV owner. "Buddy, I suggest you let him go. We''re the eighth-ranked team on the leaderboard," Monty threatened. They couldn''t afford to let David Lee die. If David Lee died, the Van would be gone, forcing them to fight for resources on public transport. They had to get Jason Williams to release David Lee. The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. However, Kira and Ellie, standing behind Jason Williams, weren''t about to let them threaten Jason Williams. Kira brandished her crossbow, while Ellie patted the beehive on her back. In the next instant, a swarm of bees poured from the hive, engulfing Beautiful sisters, Chloe, Monty and Son. At the same time, ten drone-sized mutant wasps descended from the sky, their eyes fixated on Beautiful sisters group. *Gulp* Monty swallowed hard, utterly dumbfounded, wondering where this swarm of wasps had come from. Everyone else was relying on cold weapons, and here they were, masters of beast-taming. Son was so terrified that he dropped his wooden spear. "Mercy, milady..." Monty stammered. He felt like breaking down in tears and slapping David Lee twice. Just look at what kind of person you provoked! None of these three were easy to mess with. Jason Williams could take down David Lee, who had an E+ physique, with a single blow. Kira''s crossbow was no less lethal than a pistol. Even more terrifying to Beautiful sisters and her group was the swarm of bees controlled by Ellie. Those ten mutant wasps, in particular, their stingers gleamed with a cold light, clearly not meant for mere stinging, but for piercing brains. This was too unfair. They stood no chance. Beautiful sisters face was ashen. She knew Jason Williams and his party was trouble, but she didn''t realize how frightening they were. Especially the swarm of bees surrounding them, which made them afraid to resist. Their current concern wasn''t how to save David Lee, but how to get Jason Williams to spare them. Beautiful sisters even wondered if Jason Williams would extinguish his rage and let them go after killing David Lee. With gritted teeth, Beautiful sisters looked at Jason Williams and said, "Um... big brother, this is indeed our fault." "We''re willing to hand over all our equipment and supplies. You can kill that fat bastard David Lee if you want, we won''t complain a bit." "We only ask that you spare our lives..." Chloe, Monty and Son, upon hearing Beautiful sisters''s words, quickly nodded, claiming their association with David Lee was tenuous and begging for their lives to be spared. "Oh?" Jason Williams looked at the Beautiful sisters'' group in surprise. Jason Williams recognized Beautiful sisters and Chloe. He didn''t know Monty and Son. Jason Williams glanced down at David Lee, not intending to kill him outright. Because David Lee posed no real threat. Just as in the previous life, David Lee had never managed to kill Jason Williams. In the face of the S-Rank RV, David Lee was powerless to retaliate. For Jason Williams, it was better to torment David Lee every day than to kill him immediately. At that moment, David Lee''s pained moans rose from beneath Jason Williams''s foot. "Ah, it hurts! You bastard, how dare you step on me!" David Lee finally came to his senses, struggling to get up. Seeing this, Jason Williams pressed down with sudden force. David Lee immediately felt his head about to explode and cried out, "It hurts... it hurts so much, my head is going to be crushed! Have mercy..." Beautiful sisters, Chloe, Monty and Son watched David Lee''s struggles, silent and trembling with fear. Jason Williams stepped on David Lee''s fat face, looking at the Beautiful sisters'' group with a smile, pondering how to deal with them. At that moment, a group of people emerged from the park. About seventy or eighty people were walking towards Jason Williams and the others. Clearly, people in the park noticed the commotion and came out to investigate. Frank Lawson, leading the seventy or eighty people out of the park, saw Jason Williams standing on a man, with four others standing before Jason Williams like misbehaving schoolchildren. Frank Lawson and Sonny Zendt exchanged a glance and immediately understood that someone had offended Jason Williams. Normally, they wouldn''t meddle in such matters. However, now was the time to organize teams to hunt high-level zombies, and Jason Williams, who was ranked first on the leaderboard, was bullying other teams, which would clearly affect morale. Frank Lawson immediately walked up and asked softly, "Jason Williams, what happened? Did they offend you?" 59 - Bee Swarm At this moment, all the teams who had come to hunt high-level zombies today were gathered outside the Small Park. In the past two days, everyone present had killed many zombies and accumulated a lot of combat experience. However, now everyone''s faces changed when they saw the swarm of bees surrounding Jason Williams and his group. Especially those ten mutated wasps, which made everyone''s scalp tingle. Could the half-meter-long stinger of the mutated wasps pierce a human brain? Currently, everyone was only certain of one thing: that stinger could definitely pierce their flesh and blood, easily leaving a hole in their bodies. Controlling the swarm of bees... Was this Jason Williams''s ability? Many teams had actually guessed that someone''s ability was bee control after receiving the bee-delivered message yesterday. Now that they saw it, this ability was truly terrifying. Many vehicle owners present compared their own abilities with bee control, feeling both envious and jealous. But except for Frank Lawson and Sonny Zendt''s groups, the others didn''t know that controlling the swarm of bees... was actually the little badass''s ability behind Jason Williams. At this moment, Ellie was glaring fiercely at David Lee and his group. As long as Jason Williams gave the order, she would command the swarm of bees to attack David Lee and his group. And now everyone was secretly clicking their tongues while looking at the swarm of bees, thinking about how they could survive in the swarm. Especially those ten mutated wasps that looked like drones, they looked like they were not easy to deal with. Sonny Zendt and Frank Lawson were also a little surprised when they saw the mutated wasps. Because they had never seen the mutated wasps yesterday. After all, the mutated wasps were strengthened after Jason Williams separated from them. Sonny Zendt secretly pinched his fingers, trying to deduce the information about the mutated wasps. Sonny Zendt''s transportation ability was to consume mental power. Based on the known information, he could deduce all kinds of information. For example, the rules of the zombie world were deduced by him. Sonny Zendt even deduced that with Jason Williams''s strength, as long as someone helped Jason Williams lure away the zombie hordes, he could kill all the high-level zombies in two or three days. This was also the reason why they were gathered here today. After a while, Sonny Zendt looked shocked, and a strange look flashed in his eyes when he looked at the mutated wasps. Because he actually deduced that the mutated wasps could also quickly kill the high-level zombies, even easier than Jason Williams doing it himself. Of course, Sonny Zendt would not say this immediately. He wanted to talk to Jason Williams alone and get some benefits from Jason Williams. Getting back to the main topic, at this time Jason Williams was stepping on David Lee, thinking about how to deal with David Lee. If you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. At this time, Frank Lawson walked to Jason Williams''s side and whispered: "Jason Williams, it''s best not to kill people. Everyone is watching you." Frank Lawson''s hint was obvious, indicating that Jason Williams should not kill people impulsively, which would easily affect everyone''s morale. You must know that they gathered various teams this time to hunt high-level zombies, without any binding of interests, it was all voluntary. If Jason Williams killed someone, many people would be frightened and would not participate in hunting high-level zombies. After all, if you accidentally offend Jason Williams, you will lose your life. Jason Williams nodded and smiled: "Don''t worry, I don''t want to kill them." Then Jason Williams looked at everyone: "Everyone, I am Jason Williams, the first on the leaderboard." "I called everyone here today to hunt high-level zombies." "The reason why I had a conflict with these people is because this ugly fatty insulted my woman, so I taught him a lesson, don''t think too much about it." "I hope to cooperate sincerely with everyone, kill all the high-level zombies, and then leave this world alive." "Okay!" Jason Williams''s words aroused applause from everyone. Jason Williams''s words touched everyone''s hearts. At the speed at which zombies kill humans at night, everyone will die in the fifth or sixth day. Under this inevitable ending, who doesn''t want to leave this zombie world alive? "I believe Brother Jason Williams can lead us to kill all the high-level zombies." "That''s right, Jason Williams can become the first on the leaderboard, his strength is definitely not bad. I heard that he killed a high-level zombie alone yesterday." "Really? Isn''t his ability bee control? Could it be that Jason Williams''s own strength is also not bad." There was an immediate burst of heated discussion in the crowd, and some of the women looked at Jason Williams with fiery eyes, wishing they were Jason Williams''s woman. Because they suddenly realized how good Jason Williams was. Not only is he handsome, but he also has strength. After Jason Williams''s woman was insulted, Jason Williams also took action to teach the other party a lesson. He was simply a safe and secure lover. It''s a pity that Jason Williams simply doesn''t like them. Jason Williams then raised his foot and released David Lee, then picked up the Fire Axe dropped by David Lee from the ground. This was just an ordinary wooden axe, which David Lee should have found in this city. Jason Williams smiled and handed the Fire Axe to Frank Lawson beside him. "I give it to you." "Ah? Well, I have a weapon..." Frank Lawson subconsciously shirked and refused. This Jason Williams is really something, what is he giving him the Fire Axe for? It''s useless at all. Besides, he, Frank Lawson, is also the second strongest on the leaderboard. In full view of everyone, it would be too embarrassing to accept a broken axe from Jason Williams. Is he trying to send a beggar away? Jason Williams rolled his eyes, then forcibly stuffed the Fire Axe into Frank Lawson''s arms. "I know you have a weapon, but from now on it''s mine." After saying that, Jason Williams directly pulled out the Flying Sword hanging on Frank Lawson''s waist. No matter how the Flying Sword struggled, he would not let go. Frank Lawson looked at the struggling Flying Sword in Jason Williams''s hand, wanting to cry without tears. Jason Williams really liked his Flying Sword. He said, how could Jason Williams be so kind to give him a Fire Axe. It turned out that Jason Williams was afraid that he would not have a weapon to kill zombies, so he specially gave it to him. Jason Williams is a good guy... But then Frank Lawson felt various strange gazes from around him. Looking back, he found some people looking at him sympathetically. This included the four followers in his RV. Frank Lawson immediately realized that Jason Williams had forcibly taken away the Flying Sword from him, which immediately caused everyone''s misunderstanding. So Frank Lawson quickly explained: "Don''t get me wrong, my Flying Sword was not taken away, I lent it to him..." It would have been better if Frank Lawson hadn''t explained. After this explanation, everyone looked at Frank Lawson even more strangely. "Boss, we all understand, you don''t need to explain." Frank Lawson''s follower said. Frank Lawson looked bitter after hearing this. The face of this second strongest on the leaderboard was completely lost. At the same time as Frank Lawson, David Lee, who had climbed up from the ground, was also in a bad mood. That Fire Axe was his weapon. Jason Williams gave it away so casually, mainly because Frank Lawson still looked down on his Fire Axe. Of course, David Lee was not in the mood to care about any weapons at all. He was thinking about how he could survive from Jason Williams. Jason Williams would not kill him now, but that does not mean he would not kill him in the future. David Lee understood this even if he was stupid. But he didn''t dare to escape now, because many bees were still flying around him. Jason Williams did not intend to kill David Lee for the time being, but discussed with everyone present how to hunt high-level zombies. Everyone finally decided to lure out a few high-level zombies for Jason Williams to kill first. After all, except for Jason Williams, no one present dared to be sure that they could kill a high-level zombie. 60 - Zombie Intel Somewhere on the city streets, a bloated, obese high-level zombie was chasing a man, followed by dozens of regular zombies. "Roar!" The obese zombie roared incessantly, urging its zombie minions to catch up with the human ahead. Just then, someone jumped from the third-floor window of a tall building nearby, landing right in front of the obese zombie. Under the obese zombie''s dimwitted gaze, the person''s longsword flashed, and the obese zombie was instantly decapitated. A high-level zombie was taken down so easily. The one who eliminated the high-level zombie was none other than Jason Williams. Jason Williams quickly cleared away the surrounding, lunging regular zombies, dug out the red crystals from the high-level zombie''s brain, and left the scene. The entire process took less than a minute. This obese zombie was the sixth high-level zombie Jason Williams had killed. All the high-level zombies near the Small Park had been eliminated by Jason Williams. And it had only been an hour since Jason Williams started leading the group to kill high-level zombies. On average, Jason Williams could kill a high-level zombie every ten minutes, a speed that even Jason Williams found incredible. At the same time, Jason Williams also noticed that the strength of the high-level zombies varied. The larger the zombie hordes, the weaker the high-level zombie. Conversely, the smaller the zombie hordes, the stronger the high-level zombie would be. But even if they were stronger, these high-level zombies were no match for Jason Williams. Once the zombie hordes around them were lured away, Jason Williams could easily take down the high-level zombies single-handedly. Frank Lawson and others played a key role in luring away the zombie hordes; Jason Williams couldn''t have taken down the high-level zombies alone. After collecting the Crystals, Jason Williams was about to return to the park gathering place when he noticed a figure waiting for him at the intersection. It was Sonny Zendt, wearing Taoist robes. Jason Williams walked over, curious. "Sonny Zendt? Are you waiting here specifically for me?" Jason Williams asked. Sonny Zendt nodded with a smile. He was waiting for Jason Williams to make a deal. "Mr. Williams, your strength is truly impressive; you took down that high-level zombie with a single move." Sonny Zendt first complimented Jason Williams before revealing his purpose for waiting for him. "Hehe... actually, I''m here specifically to sell you some information in exchange for some benefits." Buy information? Jason Williams was a little surprised. In his past life, he had heard that Sonny Zendt relied on his fortune-telling abilities to sell information to other RV owners for benefits. For example, the method of recruiting followers at the bus station was sold by Sonny Zendt to many RV owners before word spread, and everyone found out. Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there. He didn''t expect Sonny Zendt to come to him to sell information now. Jason Williams asked curiously, "What information? Tell me, and see if I know it." Jason Williams wanted to see what information Sonny Zendt was selling him. If it was information he knew from his past life, or if the information wasn''t useful, there was no need to buy it. Sonny Zendt understood Jason Williams''s meaning. So he said mysteriously, "I have a way to quickly eliminate all high-level zombies without you having to do it yourself." "Oh?" A flash of curiosity crossed Jason Williams''s mind, and he almost blurted out what the method was. Fortunately, Jason Williams stopped himself in time, only letting out an "Oh." Jason Williams didn''t show any curiosity, but instead considered whether he needed Sonny Zendt''s information. So Jason Williams didn''t speak, but looked at Sonny Zendt, waiting for him to continue. Seeing this, Sonny Zendt wasn''t worried. He was confident that he could get Jason Williams to buy his information. "Mr. Williams, although you eliminated six high-level zombies in one hour, that''s because those six high-level zombies were nearby." "Other high-level zombies are scattered throughout the city; it won''t be easy for you to kill them." Sonny Zendt told Jason Williams about the various difficulties involved. If Jason Williams continued to kill high-level zombies like this, it wouldn''t be difficult at first, but once many high-level zombies were killed, the zombie hordes around the remaining high-level zombies would be harder to lure away. Because now half of the zombie hordes in the city were gathered around the various high-level zombies. Some had thousands of zombies, while others had at least a thousand. After some high-level zombies were eliminated by Jason Williams, a large number of regular zombies would break free from control, wandering around and scattered throughout the city. By then, hundreds of thousands of zombies would be scattered throughout this small city. Even if the zombie hordes around the remaining high-level zombies were lured away, they could quickly summon zombie hordes from nearby. Moreover, the city would be full of zombies; where could Frank Lawson and the others lure the zombie hordes? Unless Jason Williams could forcefully kill the high-level zombies in the zombie hordes, it would become very difficult to kill each high-level zombie later on. Jason Williams frowned after listening, feeling a sense of trouble. He wasn''t really afraid of how strong the high-level zombies were. But he couldn''t face the dense zombie hordes. Because even if he was strong, if a dense horde of zombies lunged at him, Jason Williams would only be swallowed up by the zombie hordes. Unless Frank Lawson and the others weren''t afraid of danger and were willing to help Jason Williams lure away the zombie hordes, even if they themselves were trapped in the zombie hordes. But people are selfish; how many people would risk their lives to help Jason Williams lure away the zombie hordes? So Jason Williams nodded and looked at Sonny Zendt: "I''m very interested in your information. What benefits do you want in exchange for the information?" Jason Williams indicated that he wanted to buy the information, and Sonny Zendt immediately showed a happy expression. In fact, Jason Williams didn''t have to buy Sonny Zendt''s information at all, because he was in first place on the leaderboard, and he would be the last to die. If it was truly a piece of information about abilities related to everyone''s life and death, Sonny Zendt would definitely tell him for free. Moreover, what Sonny Zendt didn''t tell Jason Williams was that as long as Jason Williams killed most of the high-level zombies, the speed at which zombies killed humans at night would be greatly reduced. Maybe only seven or eight teams would die each night. By then, the top twenty teams on the leaderboard could easily survive the seven days and return to the Escape World. So Jason Williams continued to hunt high-level zombies, and as long as he killed most of the high-level zombies, the top twenty teams would have a chance to survive. The information that Sonny Zendt wanted to sell to Jason Williams was to use the mutated wasps controlled by Ellie to kill high-level zombies. Mutated wasps could fly in the air, avoiding the zombie hordes and directly hunting high-level zombies. There was no need to lure away the zombie hordes, and it saved Jason Williams the trouble of doing it himself. Sonny Zendt told Jason Williams the information he had calculated. This included how many Crystals could be used to maximize the strengthening of a mutated queen bee. Because only the mutated queen bee had the strength to hunt high-level zombies; the ten mutated wasps definitely couldn''t do it. One point that Sonny Zendt wanted Jason Williams to pay attention to was that Ellie''s mental strength could only control one mutated queen bee. Sonny Zendt''s suggestion was to kill the ten mutated wasps, free up Ellie''s mental strength, and then strengthen a mutated queen bee. After Sonny Zendt finished telling the information, he said with a smile: "This is my information. If you''re not satisfied, Mr. Williams, then this transaction is void. As for the price... Mr. Williams, you can decide." "Oh, right... I heard David Lee say that you''re selling combat boots. I don''t know if this information can be exchanged for a pair of combat boots." "If not... Mr. Williams, you can just give me some benefits." Sonny Zendt acted very humble, even explicitly stating that if Jason Williams wasn''t satisfied with the information, he didn''t have to pay any fees. 61 - Information and Ambition Sonny Zendt didn''t discuss the price of information with Jason Williams right away. Instead, he told Jason the information first, leaving the pricing up to Jason. Whatever benefits Jason offered were entirely voluntary. If Jason gave him nothing, Sonny wouldn''t say a word. That was the understanding of a smart man. For Sonny, anything Jason gave him was a profit. After all, calculating this information only cost him mental energy, not anything concrete. If the information stayed buried in his gut, he''d get nothing. Sonny''s earlier request for combat boots was a bit of a stretch, a little too ambitious. His ideal price would be a few dozen Escape Coins from Jason. But Jason didn''t underestimate Sonny because of it, nor would he refuse to pay after hearing the information. Jason knew that as Sonny''s transportation improved, his fortune-telling abilities would become even more terrifying. With the right price, Sonny could calculate any information you wanted. Sonny had made a good impression on Jason, who naturally wanted to befriend this information dealer. "You want combat boots?" Jason asked. Sonny quickly nodded, then awkwardly rubbed his nose. "If you don''t have spare combat boots, something else will do... like a few Escape Coins." Sonny was giving Jason an out. If Jason didn''t want to give him combat boots, he could say he didn''t have any to spare and just offer some Escape Coins to get rid of him. But then, Jason casually synthesized three pairs of adult men''s combat boots and handed them all to Sonny. "One pair of combat boots is payment for the information. The other two are a gift from me. You can come to me if you have good information in the future," Jason said. "Also, you can''t sell information about me to anyone. You should know the consequences of offending me." With that, Jason patted Sonny on the shoulder and headed toward the park gathering point. Sonny stood there, stunned, holding the three pairs of combat boots. Jason had generously given him three pairs, enough for him and his two fellow apprentices. Sonny snapped out of his daze, feeling overjoyed and a little confused. Where did Jason get these three pairs of combat boots? Spatial equipment? Sonny subconsciously started calculating, and in an instant, his mental energy plummeted. His expression froze. Jason''s ability was collecting blueprints?! With that ability, he''d never lack resources. Then Sonny became even more puzzled. Jason was so strong; his ability should be combat-related. How could it be the ability to collect blueprints? Did he have other abilities? Driven by curiosity, Sonny started calculating again, but this time, his mental energy didn''t react at all. He clearly couldn''t figure anything out. ... Meanwhile, at the small park, after helping Jason lure away the horde, everyone gradually returned and gathered there. "I don''t think those advanced zombies are that powerful. Jason killed them too easily. Should we go kill a few advanced zombies ourselves?" Outside the park, over twenty people gathered, discussing the possibility of teaming up to kill advanced zombies. Someone frowned. "Could it be that Jason is just too strong, and the advanced zombies aren''t that weak?" This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report. "Jason is strong, but I''m not bad either," a burly man said, patting his chest. He carried a large axe and said confidently, "I won''t lie to you all. My ability is Berserk. I can enhance all my attributes to E+ Rank within ten minutes. It would be easy to chop an advanced zombie to death." Everyone looked at the burly man in surprise. They hadn''t expected him to have such a powerful ability. Enhancing all attributes to E+ Rank did give him a chance to kill an advanced zombie. Then another man exclaimed excitedly, "Brother, my ability is Aura Enhancement... When ordinary people are enhanced by my aura, all their attributes will also be enhanced to E+ Rank. If we team up, your attributes can definitely break through to D- Rank." Wow! Everyone gasped again. It seemed that no team gathered here was simple. With Berserk and Aura Enhancement, killing an advanced zombie was almost guaranteed. These twenty-odd people, representing six teams, were now considering leaving Jason and killing advanced zombies themselves. After all, killing an advanced zombie would give their team an extra thousand points, potentially catapulting them into the top ten. It was much faster than spending the whole day killing hundreds of zombies. If they continued to help Jason lure hordes, their points would increase slowly, and their ranking would definitely drop. Immediately, these six teams reached an agreement. They would tell Jason that they were leaving his team, to hunt for more crystals. They were going to kill advanced zombies. ... On the other side of the park, David Lee and his group were trapped by a swarm of wasps, unable to move. Ellie and Kira, who had gone to help Jason lure away the zombies, hadn''t returned yet. "Now is our best chance to escape. We can''t keep waiting," David said anxiously. He was more eager than anyone else to escape this place. He didn''t want to die at Jason''s hands. The beautiful sisters frowned, knowing that David was right. But before Ellie left, she had left the swarm of wasps and five mutated wasps to watch them. How could they escape under the watchful eyes of the wasps? David gritted his teeth and whispered to the four sisters, "We''ll cover our heads with our coats and scatter. Then we''ll meet back at our place." David had made up his mind to escape, even if it meant getting stung all over. It was better than dying at Jason''s hands. The beautiful sisters knew they couldn''t delay any longer and nodded in agreement. "No problem. We''ll run separately, but you have to go first." David had an E+ Rank physique and was covered in fat. The wasps couldn''t really kill him. The only threat to David were the five mutated wasps. David took off his coat, covered his head, and then, taking advantage of the beautiful sisters'' inattention, snatched her fire axe and ran away without looking back. The swarm of wasps immediately went into chaos. Before Ellie left, she had ordered the wasps to prevent David and his group from escaping. Now that David had escaped, most of the wasps chased after him, including three mutated wasps. "Damn it! Ah... Ouch! Help!" David''s screams grew fainter and fainter. He was actually escaping, enduring the wasp stings. The beautiful sisters were overjoyed. Because David had lured away most of the wasps, they had fewer wasps chasing them when they scattered. "Now''s the time! Run!" The beautiful sisters covered their heads with their coats and ran away, screaming. A moment later, "David Lee, you bastard... You stole my fire axe!" The beautiful sister used her coat to ward off a mutated wasp, her face green with anger. Then her sister arrived to support her. Because the sister was wearing combat boots, she quickly ran to her sister''s side and chopped at the mutated wasp with her axe. Splat! Although the mutated wasp looked scary, it was surprisingly fragile. The sister killed it with one axe. The beautiful sisters exchanged glances. They hadn''t expected the mutated wasps to be so weak. The two sisters stopped running and immediately went to rescue Monty and Son. After some effort, the four of them killed the other mutated wasp. Then, enduring the stinging wasps around them, they chased after David. 62 - Queen Bee As Jason Williams and Sonny Zendt were heading back to the park, Ellie and Kira rushed over, their faces etched with urgency. "Jason, that ugly fatty and his crew escaped, and they even killed my five mutated wasps!" Ellie whined, stomping her foot in front of Jason. The wasps, with their limited intelligence, had been outsmarted. David Lee and his group found the loophole and picked them off one by one, making their escape from the park. Jason, surprised, asked with curiosity, "David and his guys are that brave? Weren''t they afraid of getting stung to death by the swarm?" Wasps'' venom was no joke; a few stings might be tolerable, but too many could be fatal. Jason had once seen a video of someone dying after being stung by a swarm of wasps, despite being rushed to the hospital. Ellie, a hint of schadenfreude in her voice, said, "The wasps I left behind stung that ugly fatty pretty good. He''s probably a goner." Jason''s lips twitched, inwardly cursing David for his recklessness. He hadn''t planned on killing David off so soon. Jason wanted to torment David slowly, satisfying his desire for revenge from his past life. David dying from wasp stings felt too easy. Still, unwilling to give up entirely, Jason instructed Ellie, "Have the bees monitor David Lee and his group''s location. Once we''ve dealt with the advanced zombies, I''ll find David and give him a good flogging, even in death." Flogging a corpse? Ellie looked speechless, wondering what kind of vendetta Jason had against David. He wouldn''t even let the guy rest in peace. Just then, Sonny Zendt approached Jason with a wide smile, holding two pairs of combat boots. "Jason, my friend, I''m off to deliver these boots to my two junior comrades. I''ll be sure to contact you first with any good intel in the future." Sonny was incredibly grateful to Jason. He knew these three pairs of boots weren''t a free gift; he''d have to repay the favor with information later. His two junior comrades were still hunting regular zombies nearby, trying to prevent their ranking from dropping. Currently, most teams were trying to hold their rank, sending out two or three people to kill zombies nearby, which meant few were willing to lure zombies, allowing David Lee and his gang to escape. Sonny wanted to deliver the combat boots to his junior comrades as soon as possible, so he bid his farewell. Jason''s generosity only cost him some Escape Coins to manufacture the combat boots. Befriending an information broker like Sonny would be a great help in the future. What Jason didn''t know was that Sonny was not just an information broker, but also a master strategist. In his past life in this zombie world, which Jason did not exist, Ellie relied on her swarm of bees to recruit Sonny and his two companions as underlings. Sonny, naturally, calculated that the teams with the lowest ranking at night would be hunted by zombies. So, on the first day, Ellie killed many zombies to avoid being killed by zombies at night. The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. Then, Ellie and Sonny, along with Frank Lawson, David Lee, and other strong individuals, killed several advanced zombies, obtaining some Crystals, which Ellie used to enhance a mutated queen bee. Ellie used the mutated queen bee to kill all the advanced zombies, clearing the Escape World. However, this time, Jason''s intervention caused some deviations for Ellie, but she eventually returned to her original path. Next, Ellie just needed to enhance the mutated queen bee, kill all the advanced zombies, and she would clear the Escape World. After Sonny left, only Jason, Ellie, and Kira remained. Jason then shared the information Sonny had sold him with Ellie. Ellie was overjoyed. She knew it. Mutated wasps could indeed be further enhanced. While the current mutated wasps appeared fearsome, they weren''t particularly strong, only capable of killing regular zombies. David Lee and his gang''s ability to defeat the mutated wasps was a good example. So, the three of them decided to first enhance a mutated queen bee. Ellie was hesitant, saying, "Jason, my mental power isn''t enough. I''ll have to kill the remaining mutated wasps first to have enough mental power to control the mutated queen bee." According to Sonny''s information, Ellie''s mental power was limited, and a mutated queen bee would occupy most of it. If she didn''t kill the mutated wasps, Ellie wouldn''t be able to control the mutated queen bee at all. Jason waved his hand, directly exchanging a D-Rank Attribute Orb for Ellie. "No need for all that trouble. Just enhance your Spirit stat to D-Rank." Ellie''s eyes lit up. Jason really had a D-Rank Attribute Orb. Kira had told her last night that Jason had the ability to acquire Attribute Orbs. Originally, she was going to surrender after only one round last night, but after Kira persuaded her, Ellie gritted her teeth and endured two more rounds. She suffered quite a bit. Ellie squeezed her legs together, blushingly snatching the Attribute Orb. She wasn''t being polite about taking Jason''s Attribute Orb now, considering how much effort she had put in. Soon, Ellie enhanced her Spirit stat to D-Rank, and Jason took out five Crystals. A wasp needed to absorb five Crystals to become a mutated queen bee. Without Sonny''s information, Ellie wouldn''t have invested five Crystals into enhancing a single wasp, so without Sonny''s information, it would be very difficult to create a mutated queen bee. Ten minutes later Under the watchful eyes of Jason, Ellie, and Kira, the wasp that absorbed five Crystals continued to expand, exceeding the size of the mutated wasps. It was even approaching the size of a human. It had absorbed five Crystals, so it had plenty of energy inside its body. Finally, a large wasp with a body length of about four feet appeared before Jason, Ellie, and Kira. "This is the queen bee?" Kira gasped, covering her mouth. She looked at Ellie, who was five foot three inches tall, and realized that the mutated queen bee was about the same size as Ellie. The mutated queen bee had wings and a sharp, pointed stinger. Jason stroked his chin, already anticipating the scene of the mutated queen bee flying over the swarm of zombies, finding an advanced zombie, and then flying over to stab the advanced zombie to death with its stinger. Ellie clenched her small fist excitedly. She was extremely satisfied with this mutated queen bee. After enhancing the mutated queen bee, the three of them headed back to the park. Outside the park, forty or fifty people were discussing and arguing with each other. Frank Lawson was arguing red-faced with someone, Sonny Zendt stood aside, minding his own business, and Joseph hid in the crowd. When Jason returned, everyone''s eyes lit up, and they immediately surrounded him. "Jason, many of our teams'' rankings have dropped. We might not be able to help you lure zombies anymore." Currently, there were still more than sixty teams on the leaderboard. The bottom forty teams were killing zombies all over the city, increasing their scores rapidly. While those in the top twenty had higher scores, the gap would gradually close over time, and their rankings would drop. Frank Lawson, standing nearby, complained, "Don''t you people know that killing advanced zombies is the most important thing?" "If we work hard, we can kill all the advanced zombies by tomorrow." Jason solved six advanced zombies in an hour, giving Frank Lawson hope of clearing the Escape World. So, he fully supported Jason in killing zombies. "Easy for you to say, you''re ranked second, you have plenty of points, of course you don''t worry about anything." "My ranking has already dropped to twenty-eighth. If I continue to lure zombies, my ranking will drop below fortieth today, and I''ll be killed by zombies tonight," someone immediately expressed their concerns. 63 - Leaderboard Shock The atmosphere was thick with unease as many teams worried about their scores. Some even considered hunting advanced zombies together. The simple solution to this problem was for Jason Williams to give other teams the opportunity to kill advanced zombies, ensuring their help in luring them. This would involve Jason weakening the zombies, allowing lower-ranked teams to deliver the final blow. Initially, that was Jason''s plan. However, Sonny Zendt presented an alternative method using the mutated queen bee, eliminating the need to assist other teams. A middle-aged man in the crowd asked with frustration, "Jason Williams, we want to help you lure zombies, but we can''t watch our rankings plummet. Do you have a solution?" Many astute individuals knew that Jason offering the chance to kill advanced zombies would resolve the issue, but no one dared to suggest it. They were waiting for Jason to propose it himself so they could grudgingly help him. The middle-aged man aimed to coax Jason into suggesting it. Instantly, all eyes were on Jason. If he offered the opportunity to kill advanced zombies, he would be met with praise and support. But Jason smirked, noticing the anticipation on many faces, which didn''t match their supposed fear of dropping in the rankings. He knew exactly what they were thinking. They had cast him as the righteous, responsible, and idiotic protagonist. So, Jason decided to play with them, returning the longsword to Frank Lawson. "I don''t have a solution. Just kill zombies to increase your scores. When there are only twenty teams left on the leaderboard, we''ll unite to kill advanced zombies." Jason''s words caused many faces to fall. Someone exclaimed anxiously, "That won''t work! If we don''t kill all the advanced zombies in one day, teams will be wiped out at night..." Discontented murmurs spread among the crowd. No one expected Jason to abandon his responsibilities. A burly man wielding a giant axe spoke up, "If that''s the case, we''ll try hunting advanced zombies ourselves. We''ll team up when there are only twenty left." This burly man, whose vehicle had a berserk ability, had already arranged with several teams to hunt advanced zombies. Jason''s statement gave them the perfect excuse to leave. He led a group of twenty people from six teams out of the park. Suddenly, the park was half-empty, with only twenty or thirty people remaining. Some, like Sonny Zendt''s two disciples, were killing ordinary zombies nearby. The middle-aged man who had questioned Jason earlier was filled with regret, forcing himself to say, "Jason Williams, I have a solution that can fix the current problem." A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. Jason scrutinized the man, already anticipating what he was about to say. He feigned ignorance, asking, "What is it? Let''s hear it." Everyone focused on the middle-aged man. He proclaimed righteously, "Every advanced zombie we kill increases our chances of survival, so Jason Williams, you can''t give up killing them!" Frank Lawson nodded enthusiastically, agreeing with the man''s statement. However, he couldn''t understand why the man, who had complained the loudest about luring zombies for Jason, was now supporting Jason''s hunt for advanced zombies. The middle-aged man continued, "Jason Williams, your score is already over ten thousand. You don''t need to worry about your ranking. Why don''t you give us the chance to kill advanced zombies? That way, we can improve our rankings, and you won''t lose anything..." Ellie, who had been standing behind Jason, couldn''t take it anymore, interrupting the man. "Dude, stop, stop! I''m about to throw up. You just want Jason to kill advanced zombies for you, and you''re trying to convince him it''s for the greater good. Shameless!" Ellie''s bluntness made the man''s face turn ugly. "You..." The man wanted to retort, but he remembered how Jason had dealt with David Lee and his cronies for his woman. If he disrespected Ellie, Jason would show him the terrifying power of the number one ranked player. Jason scoffed, "My woman can see through your petty schemes. Do you really think I''m an idiot?" Frank Lawson awkwardly rubbed his nose, vowing never to admit that he was the idiot. The middle-aged man took a deep breath and bid farewell to Jason. "Jason Williams, if you don''t think my idea is viable, then I must take my leave." The middle-aged man turned and led his followers away. After exchanging glances, the remaining teams bid farewell to Jason and departed as well. Only Frank Lawson and Sonny Zendt remained. "Jason, I''ll be leaving as well." Sonny Zendt bid farewell to Jason and left. Sonny Zendt knew that Jason would use the mutated queen bee to kill advanced zombies, so he wasn''t worried. All he needed to do was maintain his top ten ranking to receive rewards after the dungeon ended. Finally, Frank Lawson also left. Although he had many questions, he wasn''t too concerned. This was the confidence that came with being ranked second. After everyone had left, Jason and his companions left the park as well. It was time to hunt advanced zombies. In the following period, everyone was shocked when they saw the leaderboard. Ellie, who had been ranked thirtieth, started gaining points rapidly, adding a thousand points every so often. She quickly surpassed Joseph in third place, then easily overtook Frank Lawson in second. As for Jason Williams, with his ten thousand points at the top, he was also surpassed by Ellie, dropping to second place. As the day neared its end, Ellie''s score had reached over ninety thousand. Everyone was dumbfounded by the leaderboard. At this time, only one advanced zombie remained in the city. Throughout the day, Ellie had used the mutated queen bee to eliminate over ninety advanced zombies. As large numbers of advanced zombies died, the ordinary zombies were freed and scattered in all corners of the city. No one dared to go outside anymore, preferring to hide inside buildings and watch the leaderboard. Inside a building, a burly man holding a giant axe watched the leaderboard, his lips twitching. After they left Jason, they wanted to hunt advanced zombies, but the group of twenty could not find a single advanced zombie. They were forced to hide in the building by a group of ordinary zombies. All because of Ellie. How could she be so messed up? The burly man sat on the ground in despair, wondering who Ellie was. 64 - Early Exit Joseph hacked and slashed at the zombies with all his might, not even considering a break despite the heavy toll on his stamina. If you were to ask who was most devastated by Ellie''s rise in the rankings, it would undoubtedly be Joseph. Originally in third place, he had now fallen to fourth, a situation he couldn''t accept. Although it was only a single spot, the reward difference was a two-star piece of equipment, illustrating the magnitude of his loss. "F*ck, did Ellie crawl out from under a rock?" Joseph grumbled about Ellie, but his zombie-slaying didn''t slow down one bit. On the leaderboard, he had no hope of surpassing the two gods, Ellie and Jason Williams, but there was still a sliver of a chance to overtake Frank Lawson. With four days left until the end of the zombie world, Joseph resolved to surpass Frank Lawson''s score within that time. Meanwhile, Frank Lawson was looking at the leaderboard, marveling at what he saw. He knew that the bee-controlling girl beside Jason Williams was named Ellie. No wonder Jason Williams was so fearless in the park, not worried about killing high-level zombies at all C he had Ellie as his trump card. "Boss, Joseph''s score is rising quickly. He seems to want to compete with you for third place..." Frank Lawson''s subordinate, noticing Joseph''s rapid increase in points on the leaderboard, alerted him. Understanding his subordinate''s meaning, Frank Lawson walked to the window and sent out his flying sword to kill zombies. Roar~ A three-meter-tall high-level zombie roared continuously, summoning nearby common zombies to gather around it. It was the last high-level zombie in the city. Even as unintelligent as it was, it knew that its kind had been killed, and danger would soon be upon it. So it needed to gather as many zombies as possible to protect itself. However, as dusk fell, it failed to notice the black shadow circling in the sky. With its constant roaring, the black shadow in the sky finally locked onto the last high-level zombie. The black shadow dove down rapidly, its sharp stinger piercing the air. This black shadow was none other than Ellie''s mutated queen bee. The high-level zombie seemed to sense something and looked up at the sky in confusion. *Thwack!* The mutated queen bee was too fast, giving the high-level zombie no chance to react. The stinger directly pierced its skull. Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site. The last high-level zombie was easily dealt with by the mutated queen bee. At the same time, that mysterious voice echoed in everyone''s minds. [All high-level zombies have been eliminated. The instance world is now complete. Everyone will return to the Escape World in ten seconds.] "What? We''re returning already?" "Who is Ellie, ranked first? She must have killed all the high-level zombies." The surviving people in the city discussed animatedly, all surprised and delighted by the early end of the zombie world. This was especially true for the teams ranked lower. If Ellie hadn''t stepped in, they would have been dead for sure. Of course, some were happy, and some were sad. Joseph, who was in the middle of hacking at zombies, froze in place. The zombie world had ended early, and he had no hope of reclaiming third place. On the other side, upon learning that the zombie world was over, Ellie''s expression changed drastically. Her eyes welled up with tears, and she threw herself into Jason Williams'' arms. "Jason Williams, I I don''t want to be separated from you." Ellie''s voice trembled with a hint of a sob. She never expected that killing all the high-level zombies would end the instance world early. She hadn''t spent enough time with Jason Williams; how could it be over already? Kira also looked on with a complex expression, wanting to comfort Ellie. But seeing Ellie in Jason Williams'' arms, she couldn''t bear to interrupt their last ten seconds together. After all, no one knew when they would meet again. Jason Williams also hadn''t expected the zombie world to end early. Holding Ellie, he felt a pang in his heart. Jason Williams still wanted to use the four days to get More Favor Points with Kira and Ellie and develop their relationship. But the instance world ended prematurely. Holding Ellie, Jason Williams quickly consoled her, "It''s okay, Ellie... We''ll definitely meet again in the future." Ellie wanted to say something but hesitated. She believed that she would have the opportunity to meet Jason Williams again, but they couldn''t be together. Because Ellie was also a vehicle owner, would she have to abandon her own ride to get on Jason Williams'' RV? Ellie held Jason Williams without speaking, cherishing every second she had with him. Ten seconds passed quickly. Everyone was enveloped in white light and left the zombie world. Gusts of wind stirred up sand and dust, creating a light dust storm. On a certain highway. Inside a dilapidated van that was originally empty, five people appeared in a flash of white light. "We finally left that zombie world!" Beautiful couldn''t help but exclaim. After all, they had offended that man named Jason Williams. If they didn''t leave the zombie world early, Jason Williams would find them sooner or later. The five people in the van were in a terrible state. Each of them had several swollen welts on their faces, clearly stung badly by the bees. The worst off was David Lee, whose entire face was unrecognizable. Beautiful sisters all remembered that David Lee was not doing well and quickly became concerned. "Fatty, how are you doing? Are you feeling better?" Monty and the others asked with concern. None of them wanted David Lee to die because the van would disappear with him, and they would have to go to the bus to survive. So Beautiful sisters all wanted to save David Lee. David Lee was already in despair. He was swollen and in pain all over, having difficulty breathing, and even his consciousness was a little hazy. Clearly, a large amount of bee venom was taking effect in his body. At this rate, he wouldn''t last long. At that moment, Beautiful quickly said, "He''s about to die. Don''t we have ranking rewards? Use the Attribute Orbs to strengthen his physique. There might still be hope for him to survive." The eyes of everyone in the van lit up. Even David Lee, whose consciousness was hazy, perked up. Sure enough, he received the rewards from the system''s settlement. David Lee''s ranking was originally eighth, but after being stung by the bees, he didn''t have time to kill zombies, so his ranking dropped to over ten. Therefore, he only received six Attribute Orbs. David Lee hated Jason Williams. If it weren''t for Jason Williams, their team''s ranking could have steadily remained in the top ten. Now he had almost been stung to death by the bees, all thanks to Jason Williams. David Lee gritted his teeth and absorbed the six Attribute Orbs, then strengthened his physique. Now David Lee''s physique attribute was E+ Rank, and with the strengthening of the van''s ability, David Lee''s physique had reached D- Rank. With a D- Rank physique, David Lee clearly felt better, and his body was recovering. "Jason Williams, you just wait..." David Lee slurred. 65 - Return A flash of white light. Jason Williams and Kira returned to the RV. Having experienced so much in the zombie world, they both felt a bit out of place suddenly being back in the cozy RV. "Chloe, we''re back!" Kira announced loudly to the others inside. Immediately, the sound of clattering pots and pans came from the kitchen, along with Ellie''s excited voice. "That''s Kira''s voice! Jason and Kira must be back!" "Ellie, how did you knock over the vegetable basin again" "Sorry, sis, I''ll clean it up later. Let''s go see Jason and Kira!" The sound of Ellie and Jenna chattering excitedly came from the kitchen, making Jason chuckle. It seemed Ellie had been more of a hindrance than a help in the kitchen, judging by the sounds of the pots and pans. Just then, the RV slowly came to a stop, and Chloe walked in from the driver''s seat. "Hubby, you''re finally back!" Chloe noticed the bloodstains on Kira and Jason and was immediately alarmed. She rushed to Kira, checking her over with her hands. "Kira, why are you covered in blood? Are you hurt? Let me check." Kira''s face flushed, and she quickly grabbed Chloe''s hands. "I''m not hurt. It''s just blood from killing zombies" Chloe knew they weren''t injured, but seeing Kira resisting, she reluctantly withdrew her hands and went to hug Jason instead. If her good sister wouldn''t let her, she''d just find her Hubby. At that moment, Ellie and Jenna came bounding out of the kitchen and ran up to Jason. "Jason, I shot down several Goblins and wild animals today!" Ellie was eager to show off her accomplishments. She discovered she had a real talent for shooting, having taken down several Goblins and wild animals with her crossbow. "Ew, Jason and Kira, why are you covered in blood? What happened in the instance dungeon?" As soon as Ellie got close to Jason, she smelled a strong, slightly rotten scent of blood. Jason and Kira had been in the zombie world for so long that they were used to it, but Chloe and the others noticed it immediately. Jason then told the three girls about their experience in the zombie world. "The instance dungeon we went to was a zombie world. These bloodstains are from killing zombies." Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings. Feeling uncomfortable after three days without a shower, Jason took Kira''s hand and said to Chloe and the others, "I''ll tell you about what happened in the zombie world later. Kira and I are going to take a shower first." Jenna immediately said, "Jason, Kira, are you hungry? I prepared a lot of ingredients" She had traded for a lot of ingredients on the channel today and wanted to cook a big meal for dinner. Jason smiled and nodded. "Kira and I haven''t eaten much today. I''d love to try your cooking." Jenna nodded happily, having spent most of the day in the kitchen preparing ingredients, just waiting for Jason to come back so she could cook a meal. Ellie quickly chimed in, saying she would help her sister. Chloe teased Ellie, telling her not to cause trouble for Jenna and suggesting they all take a shower together. "Chloe, we''re not dirty. Why do we need to take a shower?" Ellie protested. Chloe replied matter-of-factly, "We got out of the RV to open treasure chests today and got covered in dust." Ellie realized Chloe was right but still rejected her suggestion. "No, I promised Jenna we''d make a big meal together. Showers can wait. I can shower with her tonight." Ellie turned and went to the kitchen with Jenna. Jason and Kira went to the bathroom, leaving Chloe in a dilemma. Should she shower now or wait until tonight? Comparing Ellie and Jenna to Kira, Chloe decided to wait until tonight. After all, it was two against one. It was around three or four in the afternoon. Apart from the team that went to the instance dungeon, the other teams had spent the day scavenging for supplies, and their gas was almost gone. Most teams were now parked and resting, cooking or relaxing. With nothing to do, many people naturally turned their attention to the chat channel. One sentence in the chat channel caught everyone''s attention. "After going to the instance dungeon today, I realized there are so many strong people among us. It was really eye-opening." The person who sent the message was called Bai Sheng. His words made everyone curious and puzzled. Instance dungeon? So many strong people? One sentence touched on two important pieces of information, immediately drawing everyone''s attention. Someone immediately pinged Bai Sheng in the channel, asking what he meant by those words. What instance dungeon? What strong people impressed you so much? Others urged Bai Sheng to stop talking in riddles and share the news quickly. Faced with the crowd''s prodding, Bai Sheng slowly sent a message: "Everyone, it''s not that I don''t want to say, but I went to the instance dungeon this morning and only just got back. I didn''t collect any supplies today, and I need to find some treasure chests for food before it gets dark." Hearing this, the crowd cursed impatiently, wondering when Bai Sheng would finish scavenging for supplies. Someone immediately advised Bai Sheng that he could search for supplies tomorrow since the gas wouldn''t disappear. Collecting supplies depended on gas, and as long as there was gas, they could search for supplies at any time. There was no need to rush. He should just tell them what was going on with the instance dungeon. Bai Sheng said he had no food in his RV and couldn''t starve Everyone then realized what Bai Sheng meant. If they wanted him to reveal information, they had to give him something in return. So, a few people with surplus food immediately traded some to Bai Sheng, who then told everyone about the zombie world. "This morning, our team got an instance dungeon token from a treasure chest" Bai Sheng wrote about his experiences from beginning to end in the chat channel. The chat channel, which had been filled with messages every second, became quiet. Only Bai Sheng was telling his story. Everyone learned that a hundred teams had gone to the instance dungeon to kill zombies today. Bai Sheng gave everyone a certain understanding of the instance dungeon. The bottom three teams on the zombie night hunting leaderboard horrified everyone. Forty teams had died in just two nights. If the big shots hadn''t killed all the high-level zombies, even more people would have died. In his past life, no one had ever explained this to everyone in the chat channel. After all, only a dozen teams survived after Ellie cleared the instance dungeon in her previous life. Those teams wouldn''t have been in the mood to talk about this in the chat channel. So, Jason had no understanding of the zombie world in his previous life. Instead, Bai Sheng, for a little food, posted the information about the instance dungeon in the chat channel. Someone immediately asked Bai Sheng in the channel: "Bai Sheng, quickly tell us which big shots are on the leaderboard and what makes them so amazing?" 66 - Rankings Revealed "Hey, Billy, spill it! Who are the heavy hitters on the leaderboard?" In the Group Chat App, everyone learned about the zombie world situation and couldn''t help but ask who the top players on the leaderboard were. Especially the number one player who cleared the instance by wiping out high-level zombies. Talk about hacking the game! It just didn''t seem possible. It was totally insane. How strong does one person have to be to kill a high-level zombie in a horde? Scratch that, ninety-plus high-level zombies! Now, a lot of people are starting to think Billy is just making stuff up to trick everyone. But Billy said over sixty teams survived the zombie world. All they have to do is find the people on the leaderboard and ask them to tell the truth. Actually, its no wonder people doubt Billy. After Billy finished talking, he realized how ridiculous Ellie''s achievement was. He has to list everyone on the leaderboard and prove the instance world is real, or everyone will think hes a liar. So, Billy starts announcing who''s on the leaderboard. "Hold your horses, folks! I remember all the top players. I''ll list them from the bottom up." "But when I say ''player,'' that might mean a team. After all, teams help rack up points." "First up, a player named David Lee." Mark Johnson: "David Lee!?" Akizuki Takashi: "David Lee!?" ... As soon as Billy says David Lee, dozens of people in the Group Chat App lose it. Because they all received favors from David Lee on the bus. Billy didn''t expect so many people to respond when he mentioned David Lee. This David Lee must be a big deal. So many people know him. So, Billy posts David Lee''s situation in the Group Chat App. "Listen up, folks, David Lee made a deep impression on me. He was ranked eighth for the first two days, but for some reason, he didn''t gain any points on the third day." "As a result, after the instance world ended, his ranking dropped to sixteenth." Everyone''s puzzled. Why didn''t David Lee gain any points on the third day? Billy sends a message, gloating: "Hey, folks, David Lee may have dropped a little, but he lost big time." "Because his sixteenth-place reward is the same as my sixtieth-place reward C only six Attribute Orbs." The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. Mark Johnson: "Hahaha... David Lee finally got his comeuppance." Akizuki Takashi: "Hahaha... David Lee deserves it. I bet the reason he didn''t gain any points on the third day is because he was hiding away with some girls." ... Dozens of people in the Group Chat App mock David Lee sarcastically. Pfft! David Lee sees the Group Chat App and spits out a mouthful of blood. He''s so mad he almost kicks the bucket. He glares venomously at the Group Chat App, especially at the people who are gloating and laughing the hardest. Mark Johnson, Akizuki Takashi, I''ve got my eye on you. Billy continues to talk about who''s on the leaderboard. Billy starts listing names one by one from tenth place, finally reaching Joseph in fourth place. Billy makes a point of mentioning Joseph. "Don''t underestimate Joseph just because he didn''t make the top three. He''s definitely strong. It''s just that the top three on the leaderboard are god-like freaks." In an SUV. Sarah Jones sees Billy praising Joseph so highly and a satisfied look spreads across her face. Her judgment was right. She''s hitched her wagon to Joseph. If she had stayed with Jason Williams, she''d probably be starving somewhere. Billy warns everyone in the Group Chat App: "Listen up, folks, those are the top players ranked four through ten on the leaderboard. If you run into them, don''t mess with them." "Not only did these big shots get six E-Rank Attribute Orbs, but they also got a D-Rank Attribute Orb and a one-star piece of gear." "If you piss off any of them, you better think twice about your own strength." Billy threatens everyone in the Group Chat App. He''s sucking up to the top ten so they won''t be bothered by his publicizing the leaderboard. After all, even if he doesn''t say anything, the sixty surviving teams will leak the news, so the top ten can''t hide themselves anyway. Instead, Billy openly praises them, and everyone except David Lee feels pretty good. Even Joseph accepts the fact that he''s fourth place. Billy continues to announce the leaderboard in the Group Chat App. "Next up, I''m announcing the third-place winner, Frank Lawson." "From the first day in the instance world, I''ve been keeping an eye on Frank Lawson. This big shot slaughtered seven or eight thousand zombies in three days. You can imagine how scary he is..." Slaughtered seven or eight thousand zombies in three days? How did he do it? What did he use? After killing seven or eight thousand zombies, his weapon must be dull. Many people imagine a man wielding a butcher knife in a horde, standing on a mountain of corpses. Of course, many people want to question Billy. Just as someone''s about to send a message questioning him, Frank Lawson speaks up in the Group Chat App. "I''m not as amazing as you guys think. It''s just that my ability makes it easy to kill ordinary zombies." Frank Lawson is just trying to be humble. After all, even though his weapon manipulation ability makes it easy to slaughter zombies, Frank Lawson feels his ability is nothing compared to the terrifying strength of Jason Williams and Ellie. He can''t even kill a high-level zombie. However, Frank Lawson''s humility is seen as arrogance in everyone else''s eyes. What''s your ability, Frank Lawson? Killing seven or eight thousand zombies is easy? Are you trying to flex on us chickens? Keep in mind, there are still 7,800+ people alive in the Group Chat App, most of whom are ordinary people, almost as weak as zombies. Are you saying you could kill everyone in the Group Chat App by yourself? Everyone feels chilled to the bone. People who wanted to question Frank Lawson don''t dare to send messages anymore. But then, some people suddenly start praising Frank Lawson in the Group Chat App. "Frank Lawson is too modest. Your ability to take someone''s head from a mile away is truly admirable." "That''s right. Except for the top two on the leaderboard, who can guarantee they could survive Frank Lawson''s blade?" Sonny Zendt: "Don''t be so humble, Frank. Everyone''s seen your strength." A lot of people start sucking up to Frank Lawson in the Group Chat App. These people who are praising Frank Lawson are all in the top twenty and met Frank Lawson in the small park. Some people suddenly pop up in the Group Chat App, praising Frank Lawson, and from the way they''re talking, they seem to know each other. This makes people who doubted Billy have to believe the zombie instance is real. Then, many teams who participated in the zombie world prove that Billy isn''t lying, which finally convinces everyone. For a while, the Group Chat App is buzzing. Some people are asking about the situation in the instance world, and some people are answering questions about the walkthrough that Billy doesn''t know. Like humans hunting high-level zombies during the day, and zombies hunting humans at night. For a while, everyone in the Group Chat App forgets to ask who the top two on the leaderboard are. 67 - Clone In the Bathroom Jason Williams leaned back into the bathtub, eyes closed in blissful relaxation. The hot water washed away the grime and lingering scent of violence from the Escape World. "Oh, right, my Dungeon rewards." He reached for his system interface, still half-submerged in the water, and claimed his spoils. Second place on the leaderboard earned him six E-Rank Attribute Orbs, one D-Rank Orb, and a 2-Star Equipment piece. Jason had a surplus of Attribute Orbs, so he was most interested in the equipment. 1-Star gear offered D-Rank stat boosts, so 2-Star items likely provided C-Rank enhancements. He was eager to see what the system had in store. A pair of boots that increased speed would be a godsend, potentially pushing his D+ Speed to C-. Or maybe a sharper weapon, as his current Wooden Spear was becoming increasingly inadequate. The rewards materialized: seven shimmering orbs and a black hoodie. "A hoodie?" A wave of disappointment washed over him. Not a weapon, not boots. [Hoodie] 2-Star Equipment: Enhances Constitution and provides moderate defensive capabilities. The hoodie''s properties were underwhelming. It would boost his Constitution to D+, but he needed something more. Still, his current clothes were bloodstained, so it was worth it to change. He absorbed the D-Rank Attribute Orb, channeling it into his Spirit. The remaining six E-Rank Orbs went to Kira, who was just finishing her shower and settling into the tub. With the orbs, her stats will reach E+ Rank. Currently Jasons stats are at D Rank Name: Jason Williams Strength: D-Rank Speed: D+ Rank Constitution: D- Rank Spirit: D- Rank Skills: None Escape Coins: 12062 Overall Rating: D-Rank Just as Jason was reviewing his stats, Ellie sent him a friend request. He had forgotten to add her. He accepted, and she immediately sent a gift. A book appeared in his hand. The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. "A Skill Book?" [Shadow Clone]: Summons a physical clone with equal stats at the cost of large amounts of Spirit and Stamina. Note: The Shadow Clone shares consciousness, making it difficult to control. Jason''s eyes lit up. This was perfect for him. His advantage was his high stats. A clone with equal strength would be a force to be reckoned with. The only downside was the difficulty of controlling it. He''d need to be able to multitask. He decided to message Ellie before learning the skill. "Hey, Jason, the Shadow Clone skill takes a lot of Spirit. It''s not a good fit for me, so I figured you could use it." Ellie''s powers revolved around controlling swarms of bees. If she used a skill that drained her Spirit, the swarms would become uncontrollable. Jason didn''t hesitate to ask her about the 2-Star gear she got. She revealed it was a necklace that boosted Spirit and provided some protection against mental attacks. Jason didn''t ask for it. If it had been a melee weapon, he would have taken it, but a Spirit necklace was better off with Ellie. "Learn the Shadow Clone skill already, and see if you can send the clone over to keep me company through the system." Jason was stunned. He never thought of using the clone like that. It was a crazy idea, but it made sense. The system couldn''t transfer living things, but the clone wasn''t alive. It was just a manifestation of Spirit and Stamina. Jason immediately learned the Shadow Clone skill. As the skill book vanished, he gained the new ability. He focused, channeling his Stamina and Spirit. They began to drain rapidly. The rate of depletion determined how long the clone could last, but it would cost him at least half his reserves. He could only summon one clone. Summoning two would leave him unconscious. Unless he had some potions to replenish his reserves, he was stuck with one. Suddenly, a dark figure materialized in the tub. Kira, who had been relaxing nearby, screamed and dove for cover. "Ah!" In the kitchen, Chloe, Ellie and Jenna were chatting and cooking when they heard the scream. They looked at each other, worried. "What was that?" Ellie and Jenna looked nervous. Chloe quickly shook off the nasty images in her head, grabbed two glasses, and began to fill with some ice-cold orange juice to Ellie. "Ellie, youre not really helping in the kitchen, take these to them and see what is going on in the bathroom." Ellie thinking she was being helpful, grabbed two glasses of ice-cold orange juice and ran over to the bathroom. Back in the bathroom Jason Williams explained to Kira what had happened, which made Kira breath a sigh of relief. The Shadow Clone was just a product of Jasons stamina and spirit, in essence, it isnt really a living creature. Jason looked at his shadow clone carefully, the shadow clone was condensed into one form, it had the basic features, but no one could tell who it was. Having one consciousness controlling two bodies, made Jason feel very uncomfortable. Jason could not control both bodies, so he just let his main body close its eyes, and let his consciousness take control of the shadow clone. Afterwards, Jason tried giving the shadow clone to Ellie. Shockingly, it worked! Jason scratched his head, right when he was about to move the consciousness to the shadow clone, the bathroom door suddenly opened. Creak Ellie poked half of her head in, sneakily observing what had happened in the bathroom. Ellie, what are you peeking at? Jason and Kira looked at the door speechlessly. Ellies pigtails were obviously outside of the door, it was hard to not notice. Umm I am here to bring some orange juice Ellie said as she rushed into the bathroom, placed two glasses of orange juice in front of them, and ran back into the kitchen. Jason and Kira looked at each other and laughed Sometimes Ellie can be really cute. After Ellie left, Jason told Kira to take care of his main body, and to make sure he doesnt drown in the bathtub, and then he transferred the consciousness to the shadow clone 68 - Joyces van Inside a small car. As Jason''s consciousness transferred to the Shadow Clone, he found Joyce poking his face with her finger. "What''s up?" Jason asked suddenly. Ah! Joyce was startled and quickly withdrew her hand. Then Joyce realized that Jason''s consciousness had transferred to the Shadow Clone. "Jason, you scared me!" Joyce patted her little chest and then pinched the Shadow Clone, but Jason felt no pain at all. This made Jason feel very magical. But thinking that the Shadow Clone was a shadow condensed from spirit and stamina, it was normal not to feel pain. When the Shadow Clone was in combat, it could be used as a meat shield, or it could be used to fight in a way that exchanged injuries for injuries. "Jason, what do you think of my ride?" Joyce gestured for Jason to look at the interior of the car. Jason heard Joyce say this and began to look around. From the outside, Joyce''s ride was a small car. But the interior space was not small, about ten square meters, with only one driver''s seat in the front, and various flowers planted in the back. Looking back, it was like a sea of flowers. Many bees shuttled through the flowers collecting honey, and then flew back to the beehive hanging on the car wall. In addition, Jason also saw the mutated Bee Queen and five Hornets lying in the sea of flowers, gnawing on a Goblin corpse. Wasps could originally eat meat, and now they had evolved and had a larger appetite. Fortunately, the Escape World was not short of monster corpses, so there was no need to worry about their food problems. In fact, Joyce''s biggest gain in the zombie world was the remaining 94 Crystals that had not been absorbed. As long as Joyce''s mental strength was sufficient, she could strengthen a batch of mutated Bee Queens. Seeing the interior of the car, Jason praised, "The interior is nice." "Of course." Joyce nodded proudly, then said embarrassedly, "Jason, Kira told me that you have a bathroom in your RV. Can you get me some hot water to take a shower?" Joyce hadn''t taken a bath for a long time. Before, when her body was dirty, she just wiped it with a wet towel. Now that she had just returned from the zombie world, her body was even more filthy. Letting Joyce take a bath was not a difficult task, as long as she was provided with enough hot water. Jason felt a little trouble, so he decided to give Joyce a bathroom. The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings. For Jason, a bathroom only cost 2000 Escape Coins, which was nothing at all. However, the Shadow Clone could not synthesize a bathroom, so it could only be done by the main body. "I''ll return to the main body and send you a bathroom. This Shadow Clone will stay here to see how long it lasts." Jason explained the situation of the Shadow Clone to Joyce, and then his consciousness returned to the main body. Inside the RV bathroom. After Jason''s consciousness returned, Kira was drinking chilled orange juice sent by Ellie. Jason also felt thirsty, picked up a chilled orange juice and took a sip, feeling refreshed. Then Jason synthesized a bathroom and traded it to Joyce. Just as he was about to close the system, he found that someone named Billy was commenting on David in the Group Chat App. And below, Mark, Akizuki and dozens of others were ridiculing David in various ways. Good As for why these people hated David so much, Jason didn''t know, and it had nothing to do with him anyway. So Jason soaked in the bathtub, drinking chilled orange juice, while Kira massaged him from the side, and the two leisurely watched Billy announce the strong on the leaderboard. ... As time passed. At this time, in the Group Chat App, after some discussion and understanding, everyone believed that Billy was not lying. Someone curiously asked, "Billy, hurry up and tell us who the top two on the leaderboard are." Frank, who was ranked third, was so powerful, so how strong would the top two be? Could they be C-Rank experts? Of course, some people also guessed that the top two would not be too outrageously strong. They must have some special abilities to kill so many zombies. Billy didn''t keep them in suspense. Seeing someone asking, he continued to announce the leaderboard. "Everyone, the second on the leaderboard is Jason, and the first is Joyce." "Jason dominated the top of the leaderboard with absolute strength for the first two days in the zombie world, and killed several high-level zombies on the third day..." "Joyce showed her power on the third day, killing more than ninety high-level zombies, so I was able to return to the Escape World alive." After Billy announced Jason and Joyce, he praised their achievements. Everyone immediately discussed what abilities Jason and Joyce had. Because Jason was second, he didn''t attract too much attention. Most people focused on Joyce''s abilities. Some people speculated that Joyce''s ability was a rule-based ability, and she must have triggered some rule to kill the high-level zombies. Some people even speculated that Joyce was a reincarnated empress who was now recovering her strength and would lead everyone to break the Escape World in the future. Inside a bus. Lily and Tiffany were shocked and delighted to see that Jason was among the strong announced by Billy. They had just boldly guessed whether Jason would be among the top two. Unexpectedly, Jason was really there. Now that they thought about it, could Jason''s strength be poor if he could give them combat boots and Attribute Orbs? Lily didn''t think much of it, but Tiffany cheered in her heart that she had found a treasure. Inside another bus. Sophie, wearing a princess dress, showed an expression of admiration on her small face when she saw that Jason was among the strong announced by Billy. She had long heard Chloe say how powerful Jason was, and now that she saw Billy complimenting Jason so much, she admired Jason even more. Just as Sophie was checking the Group Chat App, several men came to Sophie. "Leader Sophie, we''ve run out of wolf meat. Think of a way to get another one." "Yeah, if we don''t have food to eat, we won''t have the strength to steal treasure chests tomorrow." These people seemed to be respectful to Sophie, but they were hinting that if she couldn''t get food, they wouldn''t be able to steal treasure chests and lure monsters tomorrow. Everyone on the bus looked at Sophie. No one came to defend her, and even some women were making demands. "Leader , can you get some other food? I''m going to throw up from cooking wolf meat..." Sophie clenched her small fists angrily. She could see the faces of these people. They were all superficially obedient to her. Today, these people didn''t even get the resources of a Bronze Chest. Everyone was putting in effort without producing results. In a day, this bus only opened a few Wooden Chests, got some Escape Coins and bread, and they were divided up. Now that the wolf meat was gone, they finally knew to come to her for food. Sophie didn''t immediately refuse the men, but nodded expressionlessly, "I will help you find food, but you must get the resources of the Bronze Chest tomorrow." Everyone promised that they would try their best to steal treasure chests. Sophie looked at everyone on the bus and sneered in her heart. When these people found out that she couldn''t get food, would they continue to mooch on the bus? 69 - RV upgrade The Shadow Clone lasted for about five minutes before automatically dissipating due to exhaustion of stamina and spirit. Jason frowned as he soaked in the bathtub. The Shadow Clone, which consumed half of his stamina and spirit, only lasted for five minutes. And that didn''t even account for stamina consumption during combat. In a combat situation, the clone''s existence would be even shorter. However, Jason realized that when he created the Shadow Clone, his stamina and spirit were both E-Rank. It was normal that it wouldn''t last long, even after consuming half. As his strength increased in the future, the Shadow Clone would naturally last longer, but currently, the Shadow Clone couldn''t sustain combat for long. Jason also gained a certain understanding of the Shadow Clone. The advantage of the Shadow Clone was that its combat power was the same as Jason''s. It could be used as cannon fodder and even remotely support the women through system transactions. The disadvantage was that creating a clone at least consumed half of his stamina and spirit, and it could only last for five minutes, with an even shorter duration in combat. Moreover, Jason wasn''t yet accustomed to simultaneously controlling both the main body and the clone in combat, and he needed to practice adapting to it. Half an hour later. Jason and Kira finished showering, put on pajamas, and walked out of the bathroom. "Smells delicious." As soon as Jason and Kira exited the bathroom, they smelled the aroma of food. Jenna had clearly prepared the meal. From the kitchen, they could hear Chloe and the other two girls chattering, seemingly telling Ellie to be careful when carrying the dishes so she wouldn''t spill them. Jason smiled and took Kira''s hand. "Let''s go. I''m starving." Kira''s beautiful face blushed slightly, and she affectionately hooked her arm around Jason''s. The two of them walked towards the kitchen. In the kitchen, everyone started eating when they saw Jason and Kira enter. The five of them sat at the dining table, which was covered with meat dishes, a very lavish spread. All the dishes on the table were mainly wild boar meat, with very few side dishes. Currently, vegetables and fruits were very scarce, and Jenna couldn''t find any place to buy them even if she wanted to. However, some individual teams had already begun to try planting and raising livestock. For example, Jason had planted rice and wheat, which had now grown to knee-high. They would reach maturity when they grew into small saplings. Jenna had also bought a few eggs from a team that was raising hens today. It was evident that other teams were also trying various methods to earn resources. Kira looked at a plate of sweet and sour pork and asked, "Oh my god, Jenna, did you make all this?" Jenna nodded a little shyly. Kira immediately admired Jenna. She only knew how to make some weight-loss meals, and her cooking skills were no match for Jenna''s. This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there. Jason picked up a meatball and tasted it, nodding involuntarily. "Your cooking is really good. From now on, Jenna will be in charge of cooking." Jenna smiled and nodded without refusing. Cooking was her hobby, and she couldn''t wait to do it, so how could she refuse? Everyone ate at the dining table. They mainly ate bread, along with stir-fried meat slices, meatballs, braised pig trotters, and other dishes, which they enjoyed heartily. Of course, Jason didn''t forget to send a portion of the meal to Lily and the other women. During the meal, the conversation gradually opened up, and everyone talked about what they had done today. Jason and Kira told the women about their experiences in the zombie world. Ellie then said how she had shot goblins today and helped her sister prepare ingredients in the kitchen. Jenna then talked about what ingredients and seasonings the kitchen was lacking and what ingredients and seasonings she had exchanged for in the group chat app. Chloe then said what supplies she had searched for, mainly various foods and sundries, as well as hundreds of Escape Coins. To Jason''s surprise, Chloe had obtained a 0-Star Engine Blueprints from a chest. Jason was overjoyed when he heard this. He had finally gathered enough conditions to upgrade the RV. [Vehicle Engine]: 0-Star Vehicle Equipment, can reach a maximum speed of 150km/h after installation. Number of times the blueprints can be manufactured: 2 Manufacturing required: 20 Escape Coins. Jason immediately spent 20 Escape Coins to synthesize a 0-Star Engine. Currently, the 0-Star vehicle equipment installed in the RV includes an engine, fuel tank, alarm, headlights, and car windows. [Ding, the RV has been installed with 5 0-Star vehicle equipment, meeting the upgrade conditions, please wait...] If you looked at the RV from the highway at this time, you would find that the RV was shrouded in white light. The RV''s original dilapidated exterior gradually turned new, and finally became a brand-new gray-white RV. The interior of the RV had also changed, and the interior space had more than doubled, with about two to thirty square meters of space. [Ding, the RV upgrade is complete.] After receiving the system prompt, Jason opened the system panel to view [Transportation]. RV (S-Rank 1 Star) Capacity: Unlimited. Function 1: Collect Favor Points... Function 2: Exchange Attribute Orbs... Function 3: Store Blueprints... Function 4: Probe, the owner has the ability to probe women. Favor Points: 22 points Current Stored Blueprints: 2-Star Large Bathroom, 2-Star Large Kitchen, 1-Star Battle Boots, 1-Star Hand Crossbow... Jason couldn''t help but be stunned when he saw that the fourth function was probing. So Jason looked at the four women. [Chloe] Favor Points: 7 (Loyalty) Beauty Score: 9.5 Exchanged with opposite sex: 1 [Kira] Favor Points: 6 (Love) Beauty Score: 9.3 Exchanged with opposite sex: 1 [Jenna] Favor Points: 5 (Admiration) Beauty Score: 9.0 Exchanged with opposite sex: 1 [Ellie] Favor Points: 5 (Attachment) Beauty Score: 9.2 Exchanged with opposite sex: 1 After Jason felt the information in his mind, he understood what the fourth ability of the RV was. With this ability, he could tell whether a woman had malice towards him. At the same time, he could also identify which women were virgins. Now Jason finally understood why David was able to spot Lily and Joyce as virgins at a glance in his previous life, and even find the women on the RV who were hostile to him. Jason was very satisfied with the four women on the RV now. This was the foundation for his beautiful women''s team. The sky was getting dark. After dinner, Jason still arranged for Chloe and the other three women to continue selling wooden spears and other items. At this time, Jason discovered that Sonny had announced a message in the group chat app. "Everyone, I am Sonny, the sixth on the Dungeon world leaderboard. My ability is fortune-telling. I have calculated that tonight at 0:00, monsters will attack all vehicles except buses. Please all car owners be prepared at night." "What? Really?" "Fortune-telling? There''s such an ability?" Everyone in the group chat app was discussing whether Sonny''s message was true or false. No one knew what Sonny was up to. But many people had already decided to wait until 0:00 tonight to see if there were any monster attacks, so they could confirm whether it was true or false. Anyway, staying up until the early hours of the morning was not difficult for many people. And it was better to believe that monsters would attack at night than not to believe it. As a reborn person, Jason naturally knew that what Sonny said was true. Because after 0:00 tonight, it would be the fourth day of Escape World. The protection period for the first three days was over, and beasts and goblins would attack vehicles at night. From the fourth day onwards, each team would need to arrange someone to keep watch at night. However, Jason wasn''t sure why Sonny would announce this information. Sonny in his previous life had never done such a thing. Jason knew that Sonny wouldn''t be kind enough to announce information for free. Could it be that Sonny was trying to gain fame and trust? 70 - Sonnys plan Jason quickly guessed that Sonny announced the monster night raid to gain fame and trust. Once the monster night raid happened tonight, all the RV owners who were prepared would be grateful to Sonny, and Sonny would gain a lot of fame and trust. His fortune-telling ability would also be recognized by everyone. Next, whatever information Sonny wanted to sell, people would buy at a high price. For example, how RV owners can recruit followers on buses. Jason didn''t expect that Sonny would pave the way and build a persona for himself in this life in order to sell information. This Taoist has some tricks. Just as Jason was thinking, Sonny sent a friend request. Jason naturally agreed. After the two became friends, Sonny immediately sent a message: "Brother Jason, I have calculated that there will be a monster night raid tonight. You must be careful. It is best to send a follower to keep watch." Sonny seemed worried that Jason hadn''t seen the Group Chat App, so he specially added him as a friend to remind him. Jason knew Sonny''s little thoughts, so he replied: "Yes, I saw your announcement of the monster night raid." In fact, even if Sonny didn''t say it, Jason would arrange for several women to take turns keeping watch tonight. Sonny sent another message: "I have a very important piece of information that I want to tell Brother Jason in advance, but you must not leak it out." Jason had previously given Sonny three pairs of combat boots, and Sonny wanted to return the favor as soon as possible, so he specially came to tell Jason the information. And Jason naturally knew Sonny''s thoughts, and even could roughly guess what Sonny wanted to say. So Jason replied: "If you want to tell me the method of recruiting followers, you don''t have to tell me." After Sonny saw Jason''s reply, he was shocked and quickly started calculating with his fingers. However, he couldn''t figure anything out. Jason actually knew the method of recruiting followers, and even guessed that he was going to tell him this method. Sonny was now both shocked and puzzled. He found that he couldn''t see through Jason at all, and Jason made Sonny feel horrified. Sonny knew better than anyone how unfathomable Jason was. Now Jason had also exposed his method of recruiting followers, how could Sonny not be alarmed. That was why Sonny was so eager to repay the favor of sending the combat boots. Thinking of this, Sonny gritted his teeth and started calculating with his fingers what information Jason needed. Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere. At the same time, Sonny also stretched his other hand towards the steering wheel. The steering wheel on his car was very magical, shaped like a compass used for divination. This was a new ability unlocked after Sonny''s car was upgraded to 1 star. This compass can be used once a day to calculate a person''s urgent needs and how to solve them. Sonny decided to use this ability on Jason. Soon, his mental energy began to deplete continuously After about ten seconds, Sonny ended the divination with a dizzy head. Although he had consumed a lot of mental energy, Sonny finally figured out what Jason needed with the help of the compass. Sonny organized his words and sent a message to Jason: "Brother Jason, the follower you want to recruit is on the bus, but it''s difficult to get on her bus, right?" Jason was stunned when he saw Sonny''s message. Sonny meant that he had a way to get himself on Lily and Sophie''s bus. Jason was silent for a while, then replied: "Tell me about it." Although Jason had a way to get Lily and the two other women to the RV, he would have to wait until the next extreme heat world. Now that Sonny had a way to get the three women to the RV in advance, Jason naturally had no reason to refuse. And Sonny was finally relieved to see Jason asking. Both of them knew that Sonny didn''t owe Jason anything after he told him this information. So Sonny said: "My method has about a 40-50% success rate. As long as Brother Jason experiments a few more times, he will definitely succeed." "First, the follower on the bus needs to drive a few people off the bus. At the same time, Brother Jason, you also need to get off the bus and be left on the highway When the bus drives again, there is a high probability that it will pick you up." "After someone gets off the bus and it restarts, there is a high probability that it will trigger the condition for taking people on board." "If Brother Jason doesn''t succeed, repeat it a few more times, and you will definitely succeed." Jason silently noted this method. In fact, this method of Sonny''s had also been used by people in his previous life. Generally, it was a method used by RV owners who took a fancy to someone with strength on the bus and wanted to recruit them. After the two sides communicated, they would operate together. It''s just that Jason was too weak in his previous life, and no one used this method to recruit him. And the RV owners who knew this method would not make it public to all RV owners. After all, followers with strength were very rare, and if all RV owners knew this method, the only ones who would lose out would be those who knew the method. After getting the method, Jason ended the chat with Sonny. Chloe and the four women were selling Wooden Spears, alarms and other items nearby. As for Jason himself, he was not idle either, and continued to acquire Blueprints. But Jason''s acquisition this time caused quite a stir in the Group Chat App, after all, Billy had announced Jason, this strong man, in the channel not long ago. This led to many people privately chatting with Jason, wanting to build relationships. Jason ignored them all and focused on acquiring Blueprints. However, when it was time to rest at night, Jason still had not acquired any high-level Blueprints. It was understandable to think about it. Now that everyone had passed the stage of initial material scarcity, and they were not in urgent need of improving their strength when they did not lack materials, who would sell good Blueprints? And Jason basically already had the low-level Blueprints. The most circulating Blueprints on the market now were 0-star RV Blueprints. Therefore, RV owners who had surplus resources could collect 5 0-star RV equipment to upgrade their vehicles if they dared to spend the resources. And although Jason did not gain good Blueprints, Chloe and the four women reaped another wave of wealth tonight. Jason''s Escape Coins had reached a staggering amount of more than 20,000. "Alright, let''s stop here for today." Jason said to the four women. The four women naturally understood what Jason meant, it was time to rest for the night. Jason thought for a while and looked at the four women: "There will be a monster night raid after 0:00 tonight, you need to take turns keeping watch." "Once a monster appears, you need to wake me up." The four women nodded after hearing this, and naturally would not refuse such a thing. Tonight, they only needed to keep watch from 0:00 to 6:00, so each of the four women only needed to keep watch for an average of one and a half hours per night. At the same time, Jason also notified Joyce to pay attention to the monster night raid. Joyce wasn''t worried about the problem of keeping watch. She could hand this matter over to the Mutant Hornets and the Queen Bee. Jason also remembered that Joyce''s vehicle had not been upgraded to 1 star, so he sent a few 0-star RV equipment to Joyce and then ignored her. At this time in the RV, Chloe pulled Ellie and Jenna to the bathroom to take a shower. Only Jason and Kira were left. Jason was naturally not polite and picked up Kira to rest. Kira''s Favor Points +6 71 - Night Raid Jason wasn''t too greedy; he only collected Favor Points from each of the women once. After all, the four women still had to take turns keeping watch tonight, and it wouldn''t be good to exhaust them too much. Chloe''s Favor Points +7 Ellie''s Favor Points +5 Jenna''s Favor Points +5 Jason helped Jenna wipe the sweat from her forehead, signaling her to seize the time to sleep, as she had to keep watch at night. At this moment, Jenna''s small face was flushed, and her breathing gradually calmed down. Hearing Jason tell her to rest, Jenna nodded obediently, burrowing into Jason''s arms like a kitten and closing her eyes. Jason hugged Jenna, checked the time, and realized it was still half an hour until midnight. There was bound to be a monster raid at midnight tonight, so Jason wasn''t in a hurry to rest. It wouldn''t be too late to sleep after dealing with the wave of monsters that attacked at midnight. Jason now had 45 Favor Points, which was just enough to enhance his attributes. Jason''s Spirit and Physique were both E-Rank, making it impossible to maintain the Shadow Doppelganger for long. Therefore, both Spirit and Physique needed to be improved. Currently, Jason had a black hoodie, which, when worn, would increase his Physique attribute to E+, but his Spirit attribute was still E-Rank. So, Jason needed to enhance his Spirit attribute first. Thus, Jason exchanged two E-Rank Attribute Orbs, enhancing his Spirit attribute from E-Rank to E. In the end, Jason had 25 Favor Points left. He only needed to save up another 15 Favor Points to enhance his Spirit attribute to E+ Rank. After a simple attribute enhancement, Jason hugged Jenna and opened the Group Chat App to pass the time. Time gradually passed... Within the Group Chat App, many people weren''t sleeping, but were quietly waiting for the monster raid mentioned by Sonny. To kill time, some people were telling dirty jokes in the channel, so they didn''t feel bored. Unconsciously, the topic shifted to the monster raid. Someone asked what methods should be used to deal with the monster raid if it really came. This was indeed a thought-provoking question. For example, Jason could send a Shadow Doppelganger off the RV to easily solve it. But other teams didn''t have Jason''s abilities. After discussing, everyone realized that the simplest method was to run over the monsters with their vehicles. If that didn''t work, they could drive away; the monsters probably couldn''t catch up. But whether it was running over monsters or driving away, there was one prerequisite: the vehicle had gasoline. This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience. However, many teams had used up almost all of their gasoline while searching for supplies today. Some teams with weak strength and no gasoline finally realized the severity of the problem. So, some people began to buy gasoline at high prices in the channel. Fortunately, the sixty-plus teams that survived the Dungeon world today had a lot of gasoline left, and these teams took the opportunity to sell gasoline, making a hefty profit. Everyone realized at this moment how precious gasoline was in the Escape World. And the only way to obtain gasoline was to wait for the system to distribute it every morning. And the determining factor for the gasoline distribution was the number of people in the vehicle. Many RV owners were extremely regretful. Why didn''t they recruit more people before leaving the city on the first day? At that time, many RV owners had a strong sense of vigilance, believing that having too many people in the vehicle would pose a threat to them. But now, it had become an important reason for widening the gap between the rich and the poor. Some teams with four or five people in their vehicles could collect thirty or forty Bronze Chests every day, and the resources they obtained had already upgraded their vehicles to 1 star. And teams with two or three people in their vehicles not only collected fewer resources every day, but also had obvious disadvantages in stealing Bronze Chests and fighting monsters. Conversely, buses had too many people. Each bus had about thirty people, the number of Bronze Chests searched each day was limited, and resources were extremely scarce. Many people wanted to leave the bus and get into the RV owner''s vehicle so that they wouldn''t have to go hungry. But no matter how these people got off the bus, the end result was just going to another bus. Now, if Sonny were to sell the ''method for RV owners to go to the bus'', there would be a large number of RV owners buying it. Back in reality, time quickly reached midnight. Outside the RV. There were three short figures braving the wind and sand in the dark night, groping towards the RV. It was three green-skinned Goblins. The three Goblins all had excitement in their eyes, looking forward to having beautiful human women in this RV. The three Goblins were very clever. They didn''t directly attack the RV, as that would trigger the alarm. Instead, they quietly groped towards the car door. Just as one of the Goblins was about to try opening the car door, the car door opened by itself. A shadow holding a Wooden Spear looked at them. The three Goblins were all stunned; they didn''t expect their secret actions to be discovered. What confused them even more was, what kind of creature was this shadow? It looked even more like a monster than them. That''s right, this shadow was the Shadow Doppelganger controlled by Jason. Before the three Goblins could react, the Shadow Doppelganger took the lead, and the Wooden Spear in its hand quickly stabbed out, instantly piercing the throat of one of the Goblins. With Jason''s E+ Rank Speed and E Rank Strength, the three Goblins didn''t have the slightest chance of winning. The other two Goblins also reacted, roared, and waved bone daggers to stab at the Shadow Doppelganger. Jason didn''t control the doppelganger to dodge, but stood in place waiting for the Goblin attack. He wanted to experiment with how much damage the Shadow Doppelganger could withstand. *Thud* *Thud* The two bone daggers seemed to have stabbed into a very viscous liquid, which made the two Goblins pause. But Jason found that the daggers didn''t cause any damage to the Shadow Doppelganger at all. So, under the terrified gazes of the two Goblins, the Shadow Doppelganger grabbed one Goblin in each hand and swung them around like toys. Then the two Goblins were smashed hard on the ground, spitting out blood. This smash broke their bones and damaged their internal organs; they obviously wouldn''t live long. However, Jason didn''t let them go. Controlling the Shadow Doppelganger, he punched a Goblin with all his strength. *Bang* On the spot, this Goblin''s head was smashed open, but the Shadow Doppelganger didn''t feel any discomfort. If Jason''s body threw this punch, the reaction damage he would receive would definitely be considerable. But the Shadow Doppelganger was completely fine. Jason quickly realized the power of the Shadow Doppelganger: fearless of damage, fearless of death. Its combat power was clearly stronger than Jason''s own body. At this moment, the only surviving Goblin on the scene showed fear in its eyes, immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowing to the Shadow Doppelganger, begging for mercy. Jason wouldn''t let this Goblin go, picked up the Wooden Spear, stabbed it, and reaped its life. The Shadow Doppelganger eliminated the three Goblins in just ten seconds. Then the Shadow Doppelganger returned to the RV, closed the door, and locked it. Jason''s body gently woke the sleeping Kira, signaling her to keep watch. Kira rubbed her eyes, got up groggily, then kissed Jason on the face before going to the driver''s seat to keep watch. 72 - Protection Period End Jason watched Kira''s retreating figure as she went to stand guard, saying nothing. Arranging for the women to stand guard not only disrupted their rest but also hindered Jason from getting More Favor Points. In reality, solving the night watch problem wasn''t difficult. In the future, Jason would only need to catch one or two wild animals or monsters to replace the women on guard duty. It would be like keeping a dog to guard the house. Wild animals and monsters could be caught if they were strong enough, but they needed the Domination Collar item to truly control them. The Domination Collar could only be obtained from a Silver Chest, and it was an item that only the RV owner could use. As long as the Domination Collar was put on a wild animal or monster, it would make them mentally obey the RV owner. In the future, RV owners would catch one or two monsters or wild animals to enslave. Not only would they be obedient, but they could also be used as cannon fodder and for night watch duty. However, the Domination Collar also had its drawbacks, as it would consume a lot of the RV owner''s Spirit. Few RV owners would enslave multiple wild animals or monsters. Of course, catching one or two to train for fun wasn''t a problem. As Kira went to stand guard, Jason put his arms around Jenna and closed his eyes, falling asleep. During the night, Jason''s RV was very peaceful, but the Group Chat App was in an uproar. All the teams had encountered monster night raids. Fortunately, Sonny had warned everyone in advance, or many teams would have been victimized tonight. So, people started thanking Sonny in the Group Chat App. Sonny also warned everyone in the Group Chat App that there might be more night raids tonight, and everyone should not let their guard down and be sure to arrange for people to stand guard. "Taoist Sonny, there are only two people in my RV. It''s too hard to stand guard at night. Do you have any solutions?" This question seemed to be pre-arranged, guiding everyone to shift towards a certain topic. Sonny: "Few people in the RV? I have a way for you to recruit people on the bus, but..." Most RV owners were shocked to see Sonny''s message. Sonny actually had a way to recruit people on the bus. "Taoist Sonny, as long as you are willing to tell me the method, I am willing to pay a high price." So, many people in the Group Chat App immediately flattered Sonny, all wanting to know the method of recruiting people on the bus. Sonny did not reveal the method. He was not a philanthropist. Intelligence had to be sold in exchange for resources. Moreover, this kind of intelligence was contagious. Sonny had to fight for the greatest benefit for himself. He had to sell the intelligence to as many people as possible at once. So, Sonny said that anyone who wanted to know the method should transfer 20 Escape Coins or equivalent materials to him tonight as payment for the intelligence. He would tell the method to everyone who bought the intelligence tomorrow morning. This novel''s true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there. And Sonny also said that those who bought the intelligence first would definitely have an advantage over those who didn''t buy the intelligence, and they could recruit their favorite followers in advance. Beautiful women, talented people, and people with special skills on the bus would definitely be recruited first. Moreover, 20 Escape Coins was not expensive. Did the RV owners want to miss the opportunity to recruit followers because of these twenty Escape Coins? Many RV owners were tempted and said that they would transfer 20 Escape Coins to Sonny tonight. The Escape Coins that Sonny earned from this one message tonight were definitely not less than what Chloe and the Beautiful sisters earned from selling materials. Through tonight''s night raid, many people trusted Sonny very much, and most RV owners were willing to spend 20 Escape Coins to buy intelligence. The night passed quickly. Jason''s RV was not attacked a second time, perhaps because the three goblins with their tragic deaths outside the RV had a deterrent effect. Kira and the Beautiful sisters took turns standing guard in the order that Jason got More Favor Points last night, and there were no problems. When Jenna finished standing guard, the sky was already slightly bright. Jenna did not continue to go back to bed to catch up on sleep, but went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. As the wind increased on the fourth day, the morning temperature became very cold. Only the blanket could bring warmth. Jason slowly opened his eyes and found that Jenna, who was originally in his arms, had been replaced by Chloe at some point. At this time, Chloe had drool on the corner of her mouth, clinging to him like an octopus. Jason did not wake Chloe up, but closed his eyes and continued to sleep in the gentle embrace. ... [Ding, the three-day protection period has ended, unlocking the Pursuit Escape mode, unlocking the Chest Contention mechanism, and unlocking the World Auction Channel.] [Today, the wind level has increased to level 8 - strong wind.] [The number of people in the RV is 5, 500 units of gasoline and 23 Escape Coins will be issued.] (Jason, Chloe D-Rank, the other three women E-Rank strength.) Hearing the prompt, Jason stretched in the blanket and reluctantly got up. The women also got up, listening to the whistling wind outside, feeling like the RV would be blown away. Kira took her clothes back from Chloe''s hands, put them on, and looked at Jason: "Hubby, that Pursuit Escape mode sounds very dangerous..." Jason shook his head and said, "It''s okay, if we are chased, we will escape. If we can''t escape, we will fight." After Jason tested the combat power of Shadow Doppelganger last night, he was really not afraid of pursuers now. In addition, Chloe''s Spirit impact could provide support, and they could even beat the pursuers shit out. But Jason did not explain anything to the women, but thought about what actions to focus on today. Searching for chests and picking up Lily and the Beautiful sisters were both very urgent. Today, the Chest Contention mechanism has just been unlocked, and there is a high probability of finding a Silver Chest. The so-called Chest Contention mechanism is actually just a high-level chest that is discovered by more than two teams at the same time. Then various contention modes will be triggered, such as the follower contention mode. The RV owner has to send followers to get off the RV to compete for the chest. During this period, the RV owner cannot take action, and whether or not resources can be obtained depends entirely on the strength of the followers. This is also why Jason wanted to train the four women to fight for chests before. Jason had also heard in his previous life that today, teams had opened good equipment, props, and even some potions in Silver Chests. These were not ordinary materials. So, Jason definitely had to lead a team to collect materials today and not miss the opportunity to open a Silver Chest. Similarly, Lily and the Beautiful sisters must also be picked up back to the RV as soon as possible. Today''s level 8 wind, everyone can still move outside. When tomorrow''s level 9 wind comes, ordinary people will not be able to move. And in the last two days of level 10 and 11 winds, everyone can only hide in the RV and escape to the next Escape World. So, if you want to bring the three women on the bus back to the RV, it must be completed today. Otherwise, you can only wait for the next world. After Jason thought about it, he decided that it was important to pick up Lily and the Beautiful sisters first, and then take the team to fight for chests in the afternoon. So, everyone began to wash and eat breakfast. In the kitchen. Jason picked up a bread. The bread was cut in half by Jenna, and after being baked twice, it was sandwiched with grilled meat slices, fried eggs, grilled sausages, and sauce. It was very delicious to eat. This is the benefit of having a chef in the team. In the entire Group Chat App, which team can live as comfortably as Jason? Jenna naturally would not only prepare breakfast for the people in the RV. She also prepared it for Joyce and Lily and the Beautiful sisters. Jason also specifically asked Jenna to add them as friends and be responsible for the food problems of Joyce and the Beautiful sisters in the future. After Jenna traded the bread with grilled meat slices and ham to Lily, her expression suddenly changed. "Jason, Lily said that a RV owner came to the bus and wanted to recruit them..." 73 - Bus Controversy Hearing that a vehicle owner was recruiting Lily on the bus, Jason frowned. So Jason opened the system and inquired about the situation of Lily and Tiffany on the bus. Soon, Tiffany replied that a man had just boarded the bus, stating his identity as a vehicle owner and wanting to recruit two followers. Lily and Tiffany are both beautiful and powerful leaders on the bus. Which vehicle owner wouldn''t want to recruit them onto their vehicle? So, after learning about the two women''s situation, the vehicle owner didn''t recruit anyone else and kept pestering them, wanting them to get off the bus with him. Lily is now so annoyed that she''s almost fighting with that vehicle owner. Jason realized that things weren''t simple. How could a vehicle owner coincidentally board Lily''s bus? At this moment, Sophie also sent a message, saying that a vehicle owner had also boarded her bus. The situation was basically the same as Lily''s. Seeing that a vehicle owner had also boarded Sophie''s bus, Jason immediately understood something. Sonny must have sold the information, causing many vehicle owners to go to the buses to recruit people now. It''s also Jason''s fault for going to bed early last night and not seeing Sonny''s messages in the group chat app. So, Jason first synthesized three crossbows, then sent them to Lily and the two women, reminding them to shoot those vehicle owners directly if there was anything abnormal. If they encountered a problem they couldn''t solve, they should contact him immediately, and Jason would send a Shadow Doppelganger to solve it. After Jason finished instructing them, he opened a private chat with Sonny and questioned: "Sonny, did you sell the method of recruiting people on the bus?" On the other side, Sonny felt a headache when he saw Jason''s message. He knew that Jason would come to him to ask about this. If Jason wanted to get on the bus with Lily and the two women, there was one prerequisite: there couldn''t be too many vehicle owners waiting for the bus on the road at the same time. Today, after Sonny woke up in the morning, he had already sold the information to hundreds of vehicle owners. Now, there are many vehicle owners waiting for the bus on the road. So, it is currently difficult for Jason to get on the bus where Lily and the two women are. Sonny suddenly thought of Jason''s problem after selling the information. So, Sonny quickly replied to Jason: "Jason, this time it was my oversight. How about this... I''ll give you that information for free, and I''ll owe you another piece of information, how''s that?" Sonny''s attitude was very sincere, indicating that he still owed Jason a piece of information. If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. After seeing Sonny''s reply, the anger in Jason''s heart subsided a lot. Jason also knew that Sonny wouldn''t be stupid enough to trick him with this kind of thing, as it wouldn''t do him any good. Since Sonny had already indicated that he would still owe him a piece of information, it was already the most sincere compensation. So, Jason didn''t make things difficult for Sonny anymore, but asked him to help him calculate how big the probability of successfully getting on the bus was now. Sonny quickly replied: "Jason, don''t make things difficult for me. I can''t calculate the probability, but I can help you calculate for free which time period has the fewest people waiting for the bus." It is now difficult for Jason to get on the bus with Lily and the two women. But after most vehicle owners have recruited followers, Jason will naturally have a chance. So, Jason only needs to wait a few hours to pick up the three women on the bus. So, Jason agreed to Sonny''s method. Sonny quickly calculated it and replied: "Jason, there are the fewest vehicle owners getting on the bus at noon. There will be many vehicle owners going to the bus in the morning and afternoon." After Jason got the information he wanted, he ended the chat. Next, Jason could only wait until noon to pick up the three women. So, Jason told Lily and the two women about the situation, telling them to be careful of the vehicle owners getting on the bus in the morning, and that he would pick them up at noon. Lily and the two women were overjoyed. Who would want to stay on the bus when they could go to the RV and live a good life? On the bus. Lily and Tiffany each held a crossbow, aiming at a young man. The young man was so scared that he quickly raised his hands: "Beautiful sisters, please don''t shoot arrows, I don''t have any malicious intentions." Lily said dissatisfied: "If you dare to harass us again, I will shoot you to death with crossbow bolts." The young man quickly said that he wouldn''t dare. But the young man really didn''t want to give up the opportunity to recruit Lily and the two women, so he found a seat on the bus and thought about how to get the two women to get off the bus with him. Lily and Tiffany frowned when they saw that the young vehicle owner didn''t get off the bus. In the following time, several more vehicle owners boarded the bus. After these vehicle owners learned that Lily and the two women were strong and had weapons like crossbows, they were very excited. With strength, weapons, and beauty, which vehicle owner wouldn''t want to take them on their vehicle? If they recruited these two women onto their vehicle, their team would not only increase their overall combat power, but also have ranged weapons. So, none of the vehicle owners who came to the bus wanted to get off, and they were all boasting on the bus about how powerful their transportation tools were and how heaven-defying their abilities were. Lily and Tiffany held crossbows, and as long as any vehicle owner dared to approach within two meters, they would immediately shoot crossbow bolts. As several vehicle owners always didn''t get off the bus, the bus was strangely full and no longer took people on. The situation on Sophie''s side was exactly the opposite. After a vehicle owner got on the bus, they didn''t know Sophie''s strength at all, and didn''t even notice Sophie. The other followers on the bus wouldn''t tell the vehicle owner about Sophie''s situation, but instead tried their best to hide Sophie and show off themselves. Men bragged to the vehicle owner about how powerful they were, what skills they had, and how loyal they were. Women showed off their beauty and the qualities of a good wife to the vehicle owner, and also performed dancing and singing talents. As a result, no vehicle owner noticed the petite Sophie. Sophie hid in the corner and snickered, watching the bus like a job market, with a group of people promoting themselves surrounding every vehicle owner who came. Then the vehicle owner picked one or two they liked and took them off the bus. In one morning, five vehicle owners boarded Sophie''s bus and took ten people off the bus. The entire bus was suddenly missing a third of its people. Back to Jason''s side. Since it was decided to pick up Lily and the two women at noon, Jason could lead the team to search for chests in the morning. So, after Jason and others finished breakfast, they drove the RV to find chests. In terms of gasoline, there were 100 units left yesterday, plus the 500 units of gasoline issued today, for a total of 600 units of gasoline, which was enough to search for supplies for a day. Jason drove the RV, moving forward on the wasteland road covered in yellow sand. Soon, they encountered the first Bronze Chest. "Huh? The number of Goblins guarding the Bronze Chest has increased." Chloe, sitting in the Passenger Seat, noticed at the first time that the number of Goblins guarding the Bronze Chest had become three. 74 - Crossroads The increased number of Goblins guarding the chest didn''t surprise Jason; he had anticipated it. The number of Goblins would only increase further in the future. The importance of team strength was gradually becoming apparent. If other RV owners only focused on improving their own strength without cultivating followers, they probably wouldn''t even be able to take down a Bronze Chest. Jason looked at Chloe and the three girls. "I want you all to defeat the next three Goblins. I won''t intervene." Upon hearing this, the four girls, except for Kira, were nervous. After all, Kira had experience fighting in the zombie world, while Chloe and the other two had never faced more than one monster at a time. Ellie nervously asked, "What should we do? Should we split up and lure them away to kill them one by one?" Jenna chimed in with her opinion, "I think... we should form a formation and use the advantage of our Wooden Spears and hand crossbows to deal with the Goblins." Jenna believed that since there were only four of them, it wasn''t suitable to lure the Goblins away. Staying together would allow them to support each other. Kira didn''t say anything; she believed that either method could defeat the three Goblins. They had advantages over the Goblins in terms of numbers, strength, and weapons. The only things they lacked were combat experience and courage. So, the three girls all looked at Chloe, the eldest among them. After thinking for a while, Chloe decided to confront the Goblins in a formation. She had the Spirit Shock skill. As long as she timed it right, she could instantly take out one Goblin. Soon, the four girls finalized their plan and got out of the RV with their hand crossbows and Wooden Spears. Jason accompanied them. Although Jason wouldn''t directly fight the Goblins, he could provide the girls with combat experience from his past life. As soon as they got out of the RV, a strong wind blew, causing everyone to squint. "This... the wind is too strong, isn''t it?" Ellie felt like her small frame was about to be blown away. If her Physique attribute wasn''t decent, she probably would have been blown away already. Chloe suddenly remembered that she had goggles among the sundries she had collected, and now was the time to use them. So, Chloe went back to the RV and took out five pairs of goggles. After everyone put them on, they felt much better. Then, Jason took out five towels and distributed them to the four girls and himself. The towels could be tied around their faces as masks to prevent sand from entering their mouths and noses. After preparing their defenses against the sandstorm, the five of them walked towards the Goblins like bandits in the desert. The four girls first tried to shoot the Goblins from a distance with their hand crossbows. However, the wind was too strong, which greatly affected the accuracy of the crossbow bolts. Plus, the three Goblins weren''t stupid; they knew to dodge. Even though Ellie had a shooting talent, she didn''t hit a single Goblin. The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement. Kira stopped using her hand crossbow and instead switched to a Wooden Spear, leading the charge towards the Goblins. Chloe and Jenna also picked up their Wooden Spears and followed behind Kira. The three Wooden Spears pointed forward, making it impossible for the short-armed and short-legged Goblins to get close. Ellie continued to hold her hand crossbow in the back, ready to shoot at the Goblins if they got closer, giving her a better chance of hitting them. The three Goblins, seeing four human females approaching, excitedly shouted. As long as they could cripple and subdue the four women, it would be enough for them to enjoy for a day. So, the three Goblins surrounded the four girls from the left, center, and right. Seeing the Goblins surround them, Kira frowned, but she quickly calmed down. She stopped and waited for the Goblins to get closer. The four girls gathered together, forming a good formation, and watched the Goblins approach. Jason, who was not far away, offered reminders and imparted team combat experience, as well as some details to pay attention to. As long as the four girls didn''t panic, there wouldn''t be any problems. After all, after putting on their combat boots, their speed was D-Rank, and their Physique was E+ Rank. Plus, they had long weapons like Wooden Spears, so there was basically no chance of losing. Soon, the three Goblins were in a team fight with the four girls. Kira attacked decisively, instantly injuring one Goblin. Although Chloe and Jenna didn''t cause any damage to the Goblins, they also didn''t allow the Goblins to get close. Seeing that they could suppress the Goblins with just one Wooden Spear, the two girls immediately gained confidence. Yesterday, they had killed Goblins in a three-on-one situation, so they really didn''t expect that they could suppress a Goblin on their own. "Ellie," Chloe suddenly called out as she launched a Spirit Shock attack on the Goblin in front of her. The Goblin instantly lost its mind and stood there blankly. Ellie, who was already prepared, immediately fired her crossbow bolt, which instantly pierced into the Goblin''s body. At the same time, Chloe continued to stab the Goblin with her Wooden Spear. By the time the Goblin regained consciousness, its life had come to an end. The situation quickly reversed, turning into a four-on-two encirclement of the remaining Goblins. Soon, the other two Goblins also died under the Wooden Spears and crossbow bolts. During the fight, one Goblin threw a dagger before it died, almost injuring Chloe. Luckily, Chloe reacted quickly and dodged in time. After the battle, the four girls all had their own insights and experiences about team combat. Opening the Bronze Chest, they found only a barrel of bottled drinking water and a dozen Escape Coins. After a quick cleanup, they picked up the crossbow bolts they had missed and returned to the RV to continue searching for chests. Next, all the chests they encountered along the way were left to the four girls to handle. The four girls accumulated combat experience. Even Ellie temporarily abandoned her hand crossbow and started using a Wooden Spear to kill monsters. In such a windy environment, crossbow bolts had no ranged advantage at all. They could only hit enemies when they were close, so sometimes it was really more convenient to use a Wooden Spear. Jason gradually became more relaxed, watching them take down chests from the driver''s seat. Inside the RV. The four girls huddled together, excitedly discussing their experiences of killing Goblins. Ellie jumped up and down excitedly, showing off to her sister how powerful she was, and then running to the driver''s seat to ask Jason how she performed. If Jason didn''t praise her, she would kiss him on the face a couple of times. But Ellie''s performance wasn''t really good. She hid in the back and randomly poked with her Wooden Spear, almost accidentally injuring Kira in front. Jason really didn''t want to lie and praise Ellie. It wasn''t until Ellie''s saliva was all over Jason''s face that he had no choice but to surrender and praise her courage. After Ellie received Jason''s praise, she was mocked by her three older sisters for using such a dirty and despicable trick. Ellie naturally couldn''t argue with her three older sisters, so she started playing around with them, and for a moment, the RV was filled with the girls'' laughter and playful noises. Time quickly reached a little after ten in the morning. Just as Jason was thinking about going to the bus stop to pick up Lily and the three girls later, a fork in the road appeared ahead on the once straight highway. On the Wasteland outside the fork in the road, there were two Ogres, three meters tall, wearing primitive animal skins. Between the two Ogres, there was a silver-white chest, exactly the Silver Chest that Jason had been longing for. And on the other side of the road fork, there was a heavy truck parked. When Jason drove the RV near the fork in the road, he immediately heard the system prompt. [Congratulations on discovering a high-level chest, activating the chest contention mechanism, the participation conditions of two teams have been met] [Scanning the number of people on both sides, starting to randomly select the contention method...] [Contention method: Follower personal battle.] [Contention number: Three matches of one VS one.] [The RV owner has the right to concede for their followers, until one side wins two matches.] 75 - First Blood Jason turned his gaze towards the heavy truck at the other fork in the road. The next step was for both sides to send their followers into battle, and Jason was curious about who the owner of the opposing vehicle was. Similarly, the people inside the heavy truck were observing Jason''s RV. Neither side knew the other''s true strength, but both were determined to obtain the Silver Chest. Inside the heavy truck sat four men. A burly man in the driver''s seat was the owner of the heavy truck, named Howard. Howard was internally complaining about how competing for the Silver Chest required comparing the strength of their followers. If only they could compete based on the owners'' strength. Howard''s current strength was not bad at all, his Power had been enhanced to D-Rank, and his Speed was E+. And Howard''s trump card was his Berserk ability. After going Berserk, Howard could kill any enemy with his giant axe. Having such strength but being unable to fight was a great pity in Howard''s heart. Although he couldn''t fight, Howard had great confidence in his three followers. Although his followers hadn''t enhanced their attributes, they had killed many zombies in the zombie world, and their combat experience was good. Winning two matches shouldn''t be a problem. [Please send out followers to fight from both sides...] Howard looked at a young man inside the truck: "Luck, the first victory is very important, go." Luck was overjoyed upon hearing this and immediately showed off his arm muscles to Howard: "Howard, don''t worry, I''ll definitely get you a win." Howard nodded in satisfaction. He knew Luck''s skills; he was a sports student who practiced javelin throwing, and his physique was the best among his followers. Howard then took out an iron spear from the truck. This spear was a 1-star equipment rewarded from the leaderboard after returning from the zombie world. If Howard didn''t have a 1-star giant axe, he would have used this spear long ago. Although Howard was reluctant to part with the 1-star spear, he knew that winning a victory at this moment was the most important thing. And Luck, who practiced javelin throwing, was the most suitable person to use this spear. "Go and bring me a victory; this 1-star spear will be yours afterward." Howard handed the spear to Luck. Luck happily took the spear. He had been expecting when Howard would give him the spear, but the treasure chest competition mechanism today unexpectedly facilitated this opportunity. So Luck took the spear and got out of the truck. On the other side, inside the RV. Jason looked at the four women in the vehicle, eventually stopping his gaze on Chloe and Kira. Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site. "Kira, you go for the first battle, Chloe will take the second." Although Jason had confidence in the strength of all four women, he didn''t dare to be careless and joke with their lives. So for the first battle, Jason decided to send Kira, who had the most combat experience. If they encountered any unexpected situations, Kira could handle them. Then he would send Chloe for the second battle; with Mental Shock as her trump card, Chloe basically had no chance of losing. If they won the first two battles, the third battle wouldn''t even be necessary. The two women didn''t decline or avoid battle. Kira put on her mask and goggles, preparing to get out of the RV. Jason thought for a moment and reminded her: "Be careful, we don''t know the other side''s true strength yet, and remember not to step off the highway, or you''ll be attacked by the two Ogres guarding the chest." In this kind of one-on-one battle, there would definitely be a difference in strength between the two sides. And the weaker side naturally had a chance to turn defeat into victory, which was to run off the highway and use the monsters guarding the chest to turn the tables. At that point, the two sides would be competing in luck and determination. Even the stronger side could easily stumble, so Jason naturally had to remind Kira. Kira understood, taking the wooden spear and getting out of the RV. As the followers of both sides got out of the vehicles, the other people in the vehicles were all locked inside by the power of the rules to watch the battle and couldn''t get out to help. Jason and the three women squeezed into the driver''s seat, watching Kira walk towards the other side. And Jason was ready to give up at any moment. If Kira was in mortal danger, he would immediately admit defeat, and Kira would be instantly teleported back into the vehicle by the rules, saving her life. This was the only way for the vehicle owner to save their followers. It wouldn''t be easy for a vehicle owner to cultivate a trustworthy and capable follower in the future. Naturally, they wouldn''t want to see their followers die in the treasure chest competition, so vehicle owners had to be ready to admit defeat at any time during their followers'' battles. Inside the heavy truck. Howard and the others saw a woman coming down from the opposite RV. They were stunned at first, and then they couldn''t help but laugh. "Pfft~, hahaha... The RV actually sent a woman to fight? Are there no men in their vehicle?" Howard asked jokingly. The most important first battle, and they actually sent a woman. The other two followers also laughed along. Their originally tense atmosphere was completely relieved when they saw that the other side had sent a woman to fight. One of the followers guessed: "Howard, could it be that the owner of the RV only took women on board?" Howard''s eyes lit up upon hearing this. It was very likely that the RV only took women. There were indeed vehicle owners in the chat channel who only took female followers, bragging every night about how busy they were and mocking those vehicle owners who took male followers, saying they were too stupid to enjoy themselves. Howard was both envious and angry. Which normal male vehicle owner wouldn''t want to take a few beautiful women on board? But after they first descended on the city, this heavy truck was discovered by the four of them at the same time. Howard was just one step ahead in getting into the truck, so he was bound as the vehicle owner. And the remaining three people also took the opportunity to get into the truck. They couldn''t be driven away, which was why all of Howard''s followers were male. Howard was now very jealous of that vehicle owner who only took female followers. Suddenly, an idea struck Howard. He wanted to share this treasure chest competition battle in the chat channel. Not only would he gain some fame, but he could also take the opportunity to mock those vehicle owners who only took women. So, while Kira and Luck hadn''t started fighting yet, Howard immediately opened the chat channel and shared the situation of the treasure chest competition mechanism. Just as Howard shared the competition rules and the fact that the opposing vehicle owner only had female followers, the two people next to him suddenly exclaimed. "What''s wrong?" Howard looked towards the highway. He saw that Luck, whom he had high hopes for, had been stabbed through the throat by the woman on the other side with a wooden spear and fell to the ground unwillingly. Howard was stunned, staring at Luck''s corpse with his mouth open. Luck, are you kidding Howard? You were just stabbed to death by the woman on the other side with one spear? Did you go there to deliver a 1-star spear to the other side? Howard''s heart was bleeding as he saw the woman on the other side pick up the spear from the ground and walk back. Actually, it was also because Kira was wearing goggles and a mask, and she was wearing a windbreaker, so Luck and Howard didn''t recognize Kira. How would they know that Kira was one of the women who followed Jason in the small park in the zombie world? If they could have recognized Kira, they would have given up and left long ago. And Howard was the vehicle owner who wanted to kill the advanced zombie in the small park at that time with his Berserk ability. [Please send out followers to fight from both sides...] 76 - Chest Loot "A one-star spear?" Kira picked up the iron spear from the ground, a surge of joy filling her heart. She knew Jason was lacking a proper weapon, forced to use a Wooden Spear. This one-star spear was perfect for him. So Kira, spear in hand, turned and headed back to the RV. As Kira boarded the RV, Chloe, armed with her Wooden Spear, stepped out. The two women switched places for the second round. Inside the RV. Ellie and Jenna immediately surrounded Kira, deeply impressed by her decisive actions. Furthermore, Kira seemed utterly composed after killing someone, as if it wasn''t her first time. The truth was, Kira''s ease stemmed from her time adapting to the zombie world. She had slain countless zombies, so she felt no guilt. The three women then went to the driver''s seat, where Kira handed the one-star spear to Jason. Jason accepted the iron spear without hesitation, examining it briefly. [Spear] 1-Star Equipment: Offers a degree of armor penetration. "Not bad. Finally, a decent weapon." Who knew a chest battle would yield a one-star weapon? The opposing vehicle owner must be bleeding inside. Jason knew that his opponent''s heart was bleeding. A one-star equipment just vanished. Setting the spear aside, Jason and the women continued to watch the crossroads. At that moment, a man holding a Wooden Spear emerged from the heavy truck. The man across was cautious, afraid to get close to Chloe, fearing he would follow in Luck''s footsteps and get stabbed to death. Howard sat inside the heavy truck, his eyes fixed on the crossroads. He believed Luck had simply been careless and was caught off guard by Chloe. This time, with caution in mind, wouldn''t his followers be able to beat a woman? Yet, as Howard thought this, he was shocked to see his follower standing still, like an idiot. Then, he was easily impaled by the woman''s spear. "What..." Howard was speechless. Were his followers really this useless? Even if they couldn''t beat a woman, they should at least struggle before dying. Even a pig being butchered struggles, but his follower didn''t even do that? The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. [Victory is determined, Chest contest is over.] Howard felt the scenery blur, the crossroads, Silver Chest, Ogre, and RV all vanished. He was again facing a straight highway. If not for the two missing people in the car, he would have thought he had just dreamt. On the other side. Jason''s crossroads had also vanished, but the Silver Chest and the two Ogres remained in the Wasteland. The constraints of the rule were lifted, Jason led Kira and the women down from the RV, looking into the Wasteland. Chloe, who had just killed someone, stood in place for a moment, then walked to Jason: "Hubby, I killed someone." Jason nodded slightly, then asked Chloe, staring at her: "Do you feel any discomfort?" Chloe shook her head, not answering, but looked at Jason with determination. Whether it was Chloe or the other women, they all knew they would have to face combat and killing in Escape World sooner or later. They had killed plenty of monsters, so how could killing a person affect them? Seeing that Chloe wasn''t affected, Jason was relieved. Then he looked at the four women: "In a moment, Chloe and I will each lure away an Ogre. Kira, you go steal the chest. Ellie and Jenna, provide cover with crossbows from the road." The Ogres were all D-Rank or above, with good strength, speed, and physique. Their only weakness was low intelligence and Spirit. So, luring away the Ogres to steal the chest was the easiest solution. Even if Jason had the strength to kill the Ogres, there was no need to waste effort on them. Hearing Jason''s arrangement, the women''s spirits lifted. This was the first time Jason had led them to loot a chest, and it was much better than them making their own decisions and figuring out how to fight. It was the difference between having a commander and not having one. Soon, Jason and Chloe walked off the road, starting to lure away the two Ogres. In the Wasteland. The two Ogres saw Jason and Chloe walking off the road, excitedly howled, then chased after Jason and Chloe respectively. Ellie and Jenna immediately fired crossbow bolts. The Ogres were huge and didn''t seem to dodge, so Ellie and Jenna actually hit them. But the bolts seemed to have little effect on the Ogres, who continued to chase Jason and Chloe. Jason and Chloe ran in opposite directions on either side of the road, trying to get as far away from the Silver Chest as possible. Kira stood on the road, calculating the distance. When the two Ogres had run far enough, Kira quickly dashed off the road, running towards the Silver Chest. The two Ogres didn''t care about the chest being stolen. All they saw was the food in front of them. Kira ran to the chest, opened it, and grabbed the Blueprint inside, then ran back. After Kira returned to the road, Jason and Chloe also returned, leaving the two Ogres howling in the Wasteland in anger. After everyone returned to the RV, Kira shyly handed the Blueprint to Jason. Jason noticed Kira''s unusual behavior. What could make this sexy, wild beauty blush? This Blueprint must be something special. [Simmons Double Bed]: Resting on the bed can increase the recovery speed of Physique, Spirit, and injuries. Blueprint Crafting Times: 1 Crafting Cost: 2000 Escape Coins Jason''s eyes lit up after reading the Blueprint''s information. It could speed up the recovery of Physique, Spirit, and injuries, a very good item. Jason held the Blueprint and smiled at Kira: "This Blueprint is good. Why are you blushing?" Kira immediately retorted, saying she wasn''t blushing. Ellie and the other women also curiously checked what the Blueprint was, and then they understood why Kira was blushing. Ellie hugged Jason''s arm and asked coyly: "Jason, with this Blueprint, does that mean we won''t have to squeeze together anymore?" Jason naturally understood Ellie''s intentions, so he asked: "The space in our RV isn''t that big. Do you want to sleep in a separate bed?" Ellie thought about it. The RV''s space really wasn''t that big. If they placed too many beds, there wouldn''t be room to move. "Then I''m relieved..." Ellie giggled, saying something strange. Jason ignored Ellie and began to think about where to place the bed. If he could get a bedroom Blueprint, he wouldn''t have to worry about this problem. But with the current space, placing too many double beds would leave no room to move around. So Jason decided to only place two big beds in the RV. So, Jason first put away the original ordinary double bed, then synthesized two double beds. This Simmons Double Bed was noticeably larger than the ordinary double bed, occupying a lot of space. To make good use of the space, Jason had to go against his conscience and put the two double beds together, forming an even bigger bed. Then Jason looked at the time and found it was almost noon, so he decided to pick up Lily and the other women 77 - Rescue Mission Inside the RV. Ellie saw the double bed pushed together and squealed, throwing herself onto it and rolling around a couple of times, anticipating sleeping on the big bed tonight. The bed came with pillows and bedding, incredibly soft and comfortable to lie on, almost like a trampoline. Chloe and the other girls also tried lying on the bed to experience the recovery effect. The others didn''t feel much, but Chloe clearly felt her somewhat drowsy head feeling better. She had used Spiritual Shock three times in the morning, consuming a lot of Spirit, so lying on the bed naturally allowed her to experience the feeling of recovery. Moreover, the girls were all very satisfied with this big bed; two beds pushed together made it even bigger. There was no need to worry about being crowded or lacking space. Jason saw that it was almost noon, so he asked Lily and the other two girls about the situation on their bus. Lily''s situation wasn''t good; the drivers on the bus all wanted to recruit Lily and Tiffany. Conversely, Sophie wasn''t being recruited by any drivers. The reason was that Sophie hadn''t obtained any food before, screwing over everyone on the bus. Although no one on the bus dared to complain or blame Sophie, no one paid any attention to her. And after the drivers got on the bus, everyone wanted to be noticed and taken away by the drivers, so who would expose Sophie and make trouble for themselves? Jason learned about the situation on the two buses and decided to go to Lily''s bus first. After all, there were many drivers on Lily''s side, so accidents could easily happen. So Jason told Chloe and the four girls on the RV the situation and began preparing to go to the bus. The girls had different reactions when they heard that Jason was going to pick up people from the bus. Jenna looked forward to it, saying, "It would be so lively if we had three more sisters on board." Ellie was vigilant, worried that if there were too many women on board, she and her sister would fall out of favor. Kira shared this concern, fearing that she would be framed by scheming women, then cast into the cold palace and ruthlessly abandoned by Jason... that''s how palace dramas always played out. Chloe was excited and kissed Jason on the face twice, hoping more than anyone that Jason would bring Sophie onto the RV. To ensure Sophie''s safety, Chloe sent messages every now and then to check on her. Afraid that something might happen to her girlfriend. Jason smiled and rubbed Chloe''s head, comforting her not to get excited. These past few days, Chloe hadn''t mentioned Sophie''s situation in front of Jason, nor had she urged Jason to look for her again on the bus. Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator. She only buried her worries in her heart, so as not to affect Jason. Now that she heard Jason was going to pick up the three girls on the bus, Chloe was naturally very excited, so she returned Jason''s gesture with a passionate kiss. Jenna chuckled. "Jason, should we make a big meal and have a welcoming ceremony?" Jason stroked his chin and nodded, thinking that a welcoming ceremony was indeed a good idea, so he left the matter to Jenna. The girls were all delighted and anticipated it. Kira suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "Hubby, after you leave, should we be on guard against the pursuer mode?" Today, the protection period was lifted, opening the world auction channel, as well as the treasure chest contention mechanism and the pursuer mode. They had already experienced the treasure chest contention mechanism, but the pursuer mode and the world auction channel hadn''t been activated yet. In fact, not only Kira had doubts, but many people in the chat channel were discussing and analyzing. For example, the treasure chest contention mechanism; many teams had already shared their experiences in the chat channel. Everyone was surprised that contending for treasure chests was even more intense than fighting between followers. Whether it was individual combat or team combat, if the followers weren''t strong enough, the team would never have the opportunity to fight for high-level treasure chests. If they couldn''t contend for high-level treasure chests, it would be difficult for the team to further improve their strength, thus falling into a vicious cycle. All the drivers then realized how important the strength of their followers was. This was also the reason why those drivers on the bus, upon learning that Lily and the other two girls were strong, were unwilling to leave the bus. Otherwise, those drivers would have recruited others and left long ago when they saw there was no hope of recruitment. So a follower with strength was very popular with drivers. In addition to discussing the treasure chest contention, the topics of the world auction channel and the pursuer mode were also constantly being discussed in the chat channel. Everyone knew about the world auction channel; there were only two channels in the system''s [Channel] interface. One was the regional channel, and the other was the world auction channel. It was just that the activation time of the world auction channel hadn''t arrived yet; people guessed it should be activated in the evening after everyone had searched for supplies. But the pursuer mode made everyone vigilant. Someone even asked Sonny to help calculate what to prepare for the pursuer mode. Sonny''s answer surprised everyone: they only needed to step on the gas and escape, and the key was to have good driving skills. Jason reassured Kira not to worry about the pursuer mode. He knew that the pursuers would descend in the afternoon, by which time he would have already brought Lily and the other two girls back to the RV. Even if the pursuer mode was activated early, Jason could send a Shadow Doppelganger to deal with the pursuers. So there was nothing to worry about for the time being. After Jason gave a few simple instructions, he put on his goggles and face mask and got off the RV. This time, Jason didn''t wear the disguise mask; he needed to get the three girls onto the RV before the afternoon, and he didn''t have time to provoke David. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh... Jason got off the RV and immediately felt the extreme wind force; ordinary people couldn''t even stand steady in this environment. Jason opened the system and, according to Sonny''s method, contacted Lily and asked her to kick a few people off the bus. Lily was prepared for this; for the price of a portion of food, there were naturally people willing to get off the bus. The drivers on the bus were confused, but no one stopped Lily''s actions. At the same time, Chloe drove the RV away, leaving Jason on the highway. After someone got off the bus, the bus would definitely search for people waiting for the bus on the highway first. At this time, there was a high probability that Jason would be selected by the bus. ... Jason waited silently on the highway, battling the wind and sand. About twenty minutes later, a bus slowly appeared at the end of the highway, heading towards Jason. Jason''s spirit lifted, praying that it wasn''t the wrong bus. Soon, the bus stopped in front of Jason, and the door opened automatically. Jason got on the bus, and immediately countless gazes were focused on him. Then more than a dozen men and women all surrounded Jason. "Brother, I''ve been practicing Sanda for three years, and I''m also very skilled at driving, with ten years of driving experience. My friends call me the God of Mount Akina. I''m also very loyal..." "Big brother, can you take me away? I''m an online streamer; I can sing and dance..." "Good bro, I''m very caring, I also cook and give massages...I can even play games with you." 78 - Bus Brawl Jason watched the dozen or so people crowding around him, immediately understanding they were promoting themselves, wanting to leave the bus with him. Jason glanced at the woman claiming to be a streamer. ?Joy Favor Points: Beauty Score: 7.8 Interacted with: 21 Jason''s eyes flashed with surprise, and he couldn''t help but look at her a few more times. This streamer might have ordinary looks, but she had some game, having interacted with quite a few men. Then Jason looked at the caring older sister beside her. Sarah Favor Points: Beauty Score: 7.6 Interacted with: 1016 Holy crap... a thousand-man slayer!? Jason took a step back in fright at the four-digit number, afraid of catching something. With the RV''s scouting abilities, he was gaining some experience today. "Good little brother, just take big sister with you, and big sister will definitely satisfy you..." Sarah''s eyes were full of lust as she reached out to grab Jason. Jason quickly dodged, saying, "Wait, I''m not the RV owner, I can''t take you..." To avoid being pestered by the thousand-man slayer, Jason could only hide his identity as the RV owner. You''re not the RV owner? Everyone on the bus was stunned, then scattered away with disgusted looks, returning to their seats. "What a waste, made me expect something for nothing..." the streamer complained before turning and leaving. The others did the same, including the previously enthusiastic thousand-man slayer, who rolled her eyes at Jason and then swayed her hips away. In fact, if Jason took off his mask now, someone in the crowd would definitely recognize him. After all, Billy had announced Jason''s achievements in the zombie world yesterday. And Jason had bought Blueprints in the group chat app, so basically many people had seen Jason''s avatar. Too bad no one recognized Jason, or there would have been a face-slapping scene. Then the thousand-man slayer and the streamer would both show regretful expressions. But Jason didn''t take off his mask to show off. There was no sense of accomplishment in showing off in front of them. He just glanced at the twenty or so people on the bus and didn''t see Lily and Tiffany. Apparently, he hadn''t been able to successfully get on the bus where the two women were. Jason didn''t give up and continued to the next bus. Before getting off the bus, Jason made a point of scanning all the women on the bus, but didn''t find a virgin. Clearly, virgins were rare, and not easily found on just any bus. Jason didn''t linger and got off the bus, then contacted Lily, asking them to continue driving people off the bus. Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon. In the following time, Jason followed Sonny''s method and got on a bus, but it still wasn''t Lily''s bus. Until the third time he got on a bus... This time, after Jason walked onto the bus, he wasn''t swarmed by a group of people introducing themselves. Instead, half the people on the bus were all gathered at the back of the bus, bragging about something, while the other half sat in their seats, looking at Jason helplessly. As if the arrival of an RV owner had nothing to do with them. No wonder they were helpless. Today, whether it was a male RV owner or a female RV owner, none of them had recruited anyone. Instead, they were all focused on those two grandmas in the back. And Jason finally saw Lily and Tiffany sitting at the back of the bus. Not far from the two women, many RV owners were surrounding them, bragging about how good the conditions were on their RV. They also guaranteed that as long as the two women followed them, they would prioritize cultivating the two women when they found resources to improve their strength. One middle-aged female RV owner even stated that there were no men on her RV, and the two women wouldn''t have to worry about being taken advantage of. However, the two women completely ignored the surrounding RV owners and were observing Jason who had just boarded, confirming Jason''s identity. But Jason was wearing a mask, so they couldn''t tell if it was Jason himself. After seeing the two women, Jason sighed, realizing he had wasted an hour, but had finally gotten on this bus. He wondered if he could get on Sophie''s bus before the afternoon. So Jason quickly walked towards Lily and Tiffany, preparing to quickly take the two women off the bus to find Sophie. But at this moment, three men blocked Jason''s path. "Bro, you wouldn''t be looking at those two Beautiful sisters, wanting to recruit them, would you?" one of the men asked. Jason nodded, "I''m going to take them off the bus, don''t block my way." The three men blocking the way quickly appeased Jason, then said softly, "Hey, bro, don''t get excited, don''t even think about those two beauties. No one can recruit them." "Why don''t we join forces and just take those two women down directly? Then two women, two crossbows, we can split them evenly, what do you say?" The three men spoke very quietly, only allowing Jason nearby to hear their conspiracy. Jason originally didn''t want to bother with these three men. But when he heard that they were going to take action against Lily, he stopped and looked at the three men in front of him. The three men thought Jason had agreed, so they began to explain their plan. It turned out that these three men were also RV owners who had just boarded the bus not long ago. After learning about Lily''s situation, they naturally wanted to recruit them to their RV. But the RV owners before them had all failed to recruit them, so they had even less hope. So they planned to forcibly take the two women down. One of the RV owners said confidently, "My ability is electromagnetic field paralysis, which can put people in an area into a few seconds of paralysis. While they are paralyzed, two of us can go grab the crossbows, and two of us can kill the other RV owners." The three men seemed to have planned how to take down the other RV owners and Lily long ago. Now they just needed an assistant to help grab the crossbows. That''s why the three men approached Jason who had just gotten on the bus. Someone was worried and solemnly instructed, "Everyone be careful, don''t let anything go wrong. Watch out for the other people on the bus, I don''t want to become the background for a hero saving the beauty." Jason quickly nodded, indicating that he wouldn''t become the background. The three men were relieved and then walked towards the back of the bus together. The RV owners at the back of the bus didn''t notice Jason and the other three approaching at all, thinking that the four were also there to recruit Lily. The RV owner with the magnetic field paralysis ability raised his hand. The next moment, several RV owners and Lily were all shrouded in an electromagnetic field. "Not good!" An RV owner immediately reacted, wanting to resist. But everyone shrouded in the electromagnetic field had electric currents running through their bodies, falling into a state of paralysis and unable to move at all. Lily and Tiffany were the same. Fear flashed in their eyes. They wanted to open the system to ask Jason for help, but they couldn''t even move their fingers. Some of the other RV owners fell to the ground, while others slumped in their seats. They were completely devoid of the high spirits they had when they were bragging just now. "What are you doing... don''t kill me..." The middle-aged female RV owner who was still recruiting Lily just now had fear flashing in her eyes, and her legs went weak as she slumped on the ground. There was even liquid flowing out from below. 79 - Out Bus with two beauty "Do it now!" The driver with the magnetic paralysis ability urged. The paralysis only lasts a few seconds. They had to take out the other drivers and snatch the crossbows from Lily and Tiffany within that time. So, Jason and the others acted simultaneously. Jason and the driver with the magnetic ability rushed towards Lily and Tiffany, aiming for their crossbows. The remaining two drivers pulled out Goblin bone daggers and began to harvest the lives of the other drivers. Chaos erupted. Some drivers begged for mercy, others struggled. The other passengers on the bus were dumbfounded, not understanding why the drivers had suddenly turned on each other. Lily and Tiffany were filled with despair. Especially seeing Jason and the other driver charging at them, they felt like fish on a chopping block, helpless and vulnerable. "Give me the crossbow!" The driver reached out to grab Lily''s crossbow. At that moment, Jason stopped pretending. He suddenly punched the driver next to him. Boom! Jason''s strength and speed were now formidable. His punch landed squarely on the driver''s face, sending him flying. The driver crashed to the ground, twitching, blood gushing from his mouth and nose, barely alive before passing out. The sudden reversal stunned everyone. Especially Lily and Tiffany. Their beautiful eyes widened, filled with disbelief and confusion. The shift happened so quickly. The drivers were also stunned, especially the two with the bone daggers. They completely forgot about eliminating the other drivers. During that brief moment of shock, the other drivers'' paralysis wore off, and they were no longer lambs to the slaughter. "These bastards! They tried to ambush us! Everyone, get them!" A free-for-all broke out among the drivers. Some pulled out weapons, some unleashed their abilities, and others hid in corners, begging for mercy. Jason punched away a driver who tried to ambush him, then looked at Lily and Tiffany. "It''s me." Jason, worried they wouldn''t recognize him, removed his mask to show them his face. The two girls were overjoyed to see it was indeed Jason, who had come to their rescue. At that moment, Jason''s eyes flashed across the girls'' information. Love what you''re reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on. Lily Favor Points: - - Beauty Score: 9.1 Number of Heterosexual Interactions: 0 Tiffany Favor Points: - - Beauty Score: 9.3 Number of Heterosexual Interactions: 0 Jason was surprised by the girls'' beauty scores. In his opinion, both girls were beautiful, just with different styles. What criteria did the probing ability use for beauty scores? Jason quickly noticed the difference in their figures. Lily seemed to lose in the A-cup department. In contrast, Tiffany''s figure was very sensual. The difference between them was like the ultimate contrast between naivete and maturity. Jason discreetly averted his gaze and motioned for the girls to follow him off the bus. The two girls exchanged glances, then got up and followed Jason. Lily, following behind Jason, couldn''t help but glance at the middle-aged female driver hiding in the corner, constantly begging for mercy. When the female driver tried to recruit Lily, Lily had been tempted for a moment. If she got on the female driver''s bus, she wouldn''t have to give up her virginity. However, Lily only felt a little tempted, but she never seriously intended to go with the female driver. First of all, she wasn''t familiar with the female driver. Secondly, the female driver was unreliable. Like just now, when danger suddenly struck, Jason was able to save them, while the female driver just begged for mercy and peed her pants in fear. In comparison, the female driver couldn''t give her a shred of security. Screaming and begging wouldn''t save them when they faced danger again. Besides, Jason had never mistreated them. He gave them Attribute Orbs and equipment to increase their strength, and he never skimped on their meals. Since Lily accepted these things, she was prepared to become Jason''s woman. Just like in her previous life, when Jason shared his food with her, she had always stayed by his side. At that moment, the drivers who were fighting suddenly noticed Jason leading the two girls away. "Wait, stop fighting... those two women are being taken away!" "What?!" All the drivers glared at Jason with anger in their eyes. Seeing Lily and Tiffany indeed following behind Jason, they were furious. Some of them had been on this bus for a long time. They had spent all morning trying to recruit the two girls, only to have someone else steal them away. How could they not be angry? One young driver was about to explode with anger. He immediately questioned Lily, "Lily, why are you going with him? What do I lack compared to him?" Lily seemed to hate this young driver. This young driver was the first driver to get on this bus. When he saw Lily wearing her school uniform, he felt like he had found his ideal first love. He had pestered Lily all morning, driving her crazy. Lily hid behind Jason and retorted to the young driver, "He''s better than you in every way. He''s more handsome, more gentle, more humorous, more responsible..." Lily blurted out all the compliments she could think of, seemingly wanting to infuriate the young driver on purpose. After she finished speaking, Lily playfully stuck out her tongue at Tiffany. After all, she felt embarrassed after saying so many complimentary things about Jason. Tiffany covered her mouth and giggled, giving Lily a thumbs up. Lily''s words completely shattered the young driver''s simp heart. The young driver roared and pointed at Jason, yelling, "You bastard! Did you threaten Lily to make her go with you? I''ll fight you to the death!" The young driver raised a wooden ax and charged at Jason, intending to chop him to death with one blow. The young man''s speed was extremely fast, probably E-Rank or higher. Most people couldn''t block the ax. But Jason suddenly delivered a front kick, hitting the young driver in the chest. Everyone heard the sound of bones breaking. The young driver''s hundred-pound body was kicked away, landing on the ground and spitting out blood. If you examined the young man''s body closely, you would find that his breastbone was broken by Jason''s kick. Unless he had a healing potion, he wouldn''t survive. Jason coldly scanned everyone present. Those drivers who had originally wanted to deal with Jason were silent and trembling. No driver dared to covet Lily and Tiffany anymore. So, without anyone stopping him, Jason led Lily and Tiffany off the bus. After getting off the bus, Jason gave the girls goggles and masks to protect them from the wind and sand. Then, he contacted Sophie, asking her to drive people off her bus. Jason was going to take the two girls to Sophie''s bus. The three of them stood on the road, waiting for the bus. The two girls curiously asked Jason about the situation on the RV. Naturally, Jason didn''t hide anything and told them about the situation on the RV. When the two girls learned that there were four women on Jason''s RV, and he was going to bring three more women on board, they were speechless. Aren''t you afraid of exhausting yourself with seven women? 80 - Blind Shot The bus carrying Sophie was filled with a chorus of rumbling stomachs. Many hadn''t eaten anything since yesterday afternoon. Yesterday, Sophie had promised them a wolf carcass. But now, she claimed she couldn''t get one, leaving everyone hungry. They all knew they''d been played by Sophie, but they were too weak to retaliate. It was their own fault, really. If they hadn''t been so disobedient, focusing on luring monsters to steal Bronze Chest, they wouldn''t be starving now. Regret was too late. Inside the bus, while everyone was lightheaded with hunger, a Middle-aged man kept sending messages in the Group Chat App. Everyone else was too hungry to move, but he was constantly chatting, which seemed odd. Someone next to him asked curiously, "Hey Monty, what are you doing? You''re starving like the rest of us, but you still have the energy to chat? Don''t let that girl see you, or she''ll kick you off the bus." The "girl" he was referring to was Sophie. Just moments ago, Sophie had inexplicably kicked someone off the bus, leaving everyone puzzled. Monty, annoyed by the interruption, replied casually, "I''m begging for food, leave me alone..." Begging for food? The others nearby exchanged puzzled glances. Soon, they were stunned. Monty suddenly produced a piece of jerky and ate it. "Holy crap, Monty... you actually got food! Tell me who you begged from, I''ll go ask too..." If they could get food, they''d beg from the Group Chat App, would even recognize someone as Dad. Monty rolled his eyes, swallowed the jerky, and then pulled out a cookie, making the others drool. Realizing he was showing off, Monty quickly ate the cookie, afraid the others would snatch it. The people around Monty started to give him nasty looks. Monty, feeling a little better, explained, "I just sucked up to a RV owner. This is the food he gave me." Everyone was envious. Sucking up to a RV owner wasn''t easy. Reading on this site? This novel is published elsewhere. Support the author by seeking out the original. They couldn''t help but think of Sophie, who had become powerful and taken over the bus after sucking up to some big shot. Some had tried to imitate Sophie, trying to suck up to a RV owner in the Group Chat App, but no one paid them any attention. Monty, seeing their disappointed expressions, glanced at Sophie in the back corner of the bus. He was getting jerky and cookie because of Sophie, or rather, because of her crossbow. Monty had told an RV owner that there was a crossbow on their bus. The RV owner, wanting a ranged weapon, offered Monty food in exchange for the crossbow. They secretly agreed that Monty would kill Sophie and take the crossbow to sell to the RV owner. The RV owner would give Monty a weapon: a Goblin bone dagger. It wasn''t very sharp, but it could still be deadly. With the dagger, Monty had a chance to kill Sophie, but she still had the upper hand. Sophie was incredibly strong and fast, she could beat everyone on the bus. Plus, she had a crossbow. Trying to take it head-on would be suicide. Of course, that didn''t mean Monty couldn''t find a way to kill a little girl. Monty had been in plenty of fights when he was younger and knew that if you''re weaker than your opponent, you had to resort to dirty tricks. Like throwing sand in their eyes... Monty was sure he could take her down if he suddenly threw a handful of sand. Too bad. Sophie was gorgeous. He hated to kill such a beautiful woman, but he will enjoy her body first Monty didn''t tell anyone his plan. He got up and walked towards Sophie. His left hand was in his pocket, clutching a handful of sand, and his right hand held the bone dagger. He approached Sophie with a smile. Sophie was eagerly waiting for Jason to pick her up. Seeing a man approaching her, she immediately became alert. "Stop, don''t come any closer!" Sophie was wary and immediately aimed her crossbow at Monty. It was no wonder Sophie was so cautious. Monty seemed up to no good. Monty was stunned. He didn''t expect the girl to be so alert, not giving him a chance to get close. Monty had no choice but to keep approaching Sophie, while the others on the bus watched curiously. To lower Sophie''s guard, Monty explained that he wanted to talk about food, while slowly moving closer. Sophie sensed something was wrong and threatened, "If you come any closer, I''ll shoot!" Monty didn''t back down. He took another step and suddenly threw a handful of sand. Sophie didn''t expect him to throw sand and was blinded. Monty was overjoyed, dodging the crossbow''s aim, pulling out the bone dagger, and rushing towards Sophie. Sophie panicked, fumbled with the crossbow, and fired wildly. *Thwack* Sophie felt something warm spray on her body, followed by a thud. Someone had fallen in front of her. The bus erupted in screams. Someone was saying that someone had been killed, that Monty was dead. Sophie''s heart raced. Her eyes watered from the sand, and she slowly opened them. What she saw made her pupils constrict. She was surrounded by blood, and Monty lay motionless on the ground. The arrow she had fired wildly had accidentally pierced Monty''s neck, saving her life. If the arrow hadn''t hit Monty, Sophie might be dead. But Sophie couldn''t accept that she had killed someone. She trembled, tears streaming down her face. The others on the bus were afraid to approach Sophie, whispering amongst themselves. Some condemned Monty for picking a fight with Sophie, ruining things for everyone. Others were already considering leaving the bus and seeking refuge elsewhere. The bus drove for another ten minutes and then stopped. Everyone looked outside in confusion. Three people were waiting for the bus: Jason, Lily, and Tiffany. As they boarded the bus, some immediately asked Jason if he was an RV owner and if he was looking to recruit followers. Jason didn''t answer. He noticed Sophie sitting in the back of the bus, covered in blood, sobbing. 81 - Ladies Unite Jason was overjoyed to see Sophie. Finding her so quickly saved him a lot of trouble. But he was taken aback by Sophie''s condition. Sophie was covered in blood and looked disheveled, clearly she had been through something rough. Jason frowned and scanned the others, then quickly walked towards Sophie with Lily and Tiffany. The others on the bus exchanged glances. Jason''s behavior didn''t seem like he was there to recruit them, and he looked like trouble. Especially with Lily and Tiffany each holding a crossbow, everyone''s pupils shrank, and they dared not approach. After all, old Monty had just died from Sophie''s crossbow bolt. And now here are two other women also have crossbows, what are the odds? Everyone vaguely guessed that Jason and the two women had a close relationship with Sophie. So no one stopped Jason. Sophie felt someone approaching and hurriedly raised her crossbow at Jason. But there were no bolts in the crossbow at all. Sophie exclaimed, realizing that she had already shot all her bolts, and hurriedly looked around for them. "Don''t be afraid, it''s me." Jason took off his mask, revealing his face. Sophie was stunned when she saw Jason, and then her eyes filled with tears. She felt like she had found support and was about to cry. Jason saw her information in his mind. Sophie Favor Points: Beauty Score: 9.2 Number of opposite sex having conversations with: 0 Jason walked up to Sophie and checked her for injuries. He breathed a sigh of relief when he confirmed that the blood on Sophie''s body was just splatter. Then Jason asked Lily and Tiffany to take care of and comfort Sophie while he asked a few people what had happened. No one on the bus dared to hide anything, and Jason quickly learned what had happened. Jason glanced at old Monty''s corpse on the ground, unsure of what to say. However, now that Sophie had killed someone, her mentality would change. This could be considered a form of growth for her. Compared to the other women, Sophie was more timid. For example, Lily was brave. After getting her Attribute Orbs, she dared to lure monsters and steal Bronze Chest, Tiffany was more calculating and wouldn''t let herself suffer. And the four women on the RV had also grown to varying degrees. Even Jenna and Ellie had killed many monsters, and they were mentally stronger than Sophie. Unauthorized reproduction: this story has been taken without approval. Report sightings. Although Sophie''s killing was accidental, it might not be a bad thing for her. People always have to grow, and this experience would change her timid personality. Then Jason didn''t linger on the bus any longer and led the three women off the bus. ... On the highway. Jason waited with the three women in the sandstorm for a while. Finally, Chloe, driving the RV, appeared at the end of the highway. Sophie, who had been feeling down, was now blushing and hiding behind Lily and Tiffany. The reason? The wind on the highway was too strong, and Sophie was wearing a skirt, which she couldn''t keep down at all. Even with Lily and Tiffany helping, they couldn''t hold down the flying skirt. Jason, on the other hand, watched the three women struggling to hold their skirts down and chuckled to himself. Of course, he could give Sophie some pants, but why would he do that? Instead, Sophie, focused on holding her skirt down, temporarily forgot about the killing and became more lively. The RV slowly stopped in front of the four. Before Chloe and the other girls could get out to greet them, Jason immediately led the group onto the RV. The sandstorm outside was too strong, and Jason didn''t want to stay outside for a second longer. Once inside the RV, Chloe and the others immediately greeted them, and then the seven women gathered together, chattering away. Jason was extremely satisfied with the beautiful scene in front of him. After a brief introduction, he let them get to know each other on their own. The RV immediately became lively, with the women constantly talking and sharing. Chloe was alarmed to see the blood on Sophie''s body and quickly checked her over. After confirming that Sophie wasn''t injured, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked what had happened. Sophie didn''t answer. She saw Chloe and her eyes turned red. She rushed into Chloe''s arms. For her, Chloe was her closest person. Being able to be by Chloe''s side in Escape World was enough for Sophie. Lily and Tiffany had formed a best friend alliance on the bus. After getting on the RV, the two women were outwardly friendly, but secretly comparing themselves to the other women. However, although they were pretty, none of the women on the RV were lacking in looks, and each had her own unique charm. The athletic Kira, the blonde, blue-eyed, tsundere mixed-race loli Ellie, the similarly mixed-race but outwardly gentle and inwardly tough Jenna, the quirky Chloe, and the timid Sophie who aroused protectiveness, none of the women were inferior to them in terms of appearance. Lily, on the other hand, noticed her own shortcomings. Because she was the smallest, and not in age... Lily looked down at her flat chest and her face darkened. Even the youngest Ellie and Jenna were much bigger than her. She had no advantage in that department. Ellie and Jenna didn''t know what Lily was thinking. Seeing that Lily was about the same age as them, they asked how old she was. "Lily, how old are you?" Jenna asked. Lily clearly misunderstood something, but still stubbornly replied, "I... I''m a B-Rank expert, just like you guys." "Huh? A B-Rank expert?" Ellie and Jenna exchanged glances. Why didn''t they understand what Lily was talking about? They just wanted to ask how old Lily was. On the other side, Kira, seeing that Lily and Sophie were young and didn''t seem like scheming women, focused her attention on Tiffany. Tiffany also noticed that Kira was probing her. But neither of them showed anything, and instead, they were friendly with each other. They weren''t stupid. If they mocked each other or acted in an unharmonious way, they would definitely incur Jason''s displeasure. And they would be the ones to suffer. So Tiffany praised Kira for her great figure, and Kira in return praised Tiffany for her sexy figure, saying that she must have worked out a lot to get it. Lily, who was standing nearby, pricked up her ears. She really wanted to ask them for advice, but she was too embarrassed to open her mouth. In short, now that there were more people in the RV, there were also more thoughts and plans. Jason checked the time. It was almost afternoon. So he told everyone to have some instant noodles, bread, and other simple food. They would have a big meal in the evening as a welcoming ceremony for the three new women. The women naturally agreed. The priority in the afternoon was to gather resources, so everyone had some simple food. Then everyone went to the kitchen, and the three women, who had just gotten on the RV, were shocked by the mountain of food in the kitchen. Chloe and the other three women were proud of it. These were all obtained through selling equipment every night. If they weren''t worried about not having enough space to store resources, they could have exchanged for even more. Then Jason and the women had some simple food in the kitchen... 82 - The Pursuers Arrive! Jason and the girls grabbed a quick bite, then hopped in the RV to hunt down more chests. The three newest additions, Lily, Tiffany, and Sophie weren''t exactly powerhouses yet, so Jason didn''t want them fighting. He told them to hit the showers and relax. They didn''t argue, they were desperate for a shower. "Hey, Chloe, is that a bed?" Lily asked, pointing at two king-sized mattresses pushed together. Of course, Lily knew it was beds. What she really meant was: are we all going to be crammed in here together? Everyone would know my A-Rank is compromised. Chloe grinned. "Yep, they''re beds. But they''re special, souped-up beds that restore your Physique, Spirit, and heal you." "You guys have been roughing it on that bus, right? Crash here after your shower, catch some Z''s." The girls were totally on board. Even Lily, despite her concerns, didn''t want to say no. They were beat. Felt like they''d been on a non-stop, hard-seat train ride for days. They desperately wanted to sink into a comfy mattress. Sophie, especially. Unlike Lily and Tiffany, who could watch each other''s backs, Sophie hadn''t slept soundly for days, always on edge, looking pale and tired. Chloe led them to the bathroom, even snagged them fresh pajamas. Then, she joined Jason in the driver''s seat. Meanwhile, Jenna, Ellie, and Kira were whipping up a massive dinner in the kitchen. The RV cruised on they snagged a couple more chests easily with Chloe''s help, and the afternoon was moving on, it was after 2 pm when they heard a ding! Pursuer mode: Engaged! One hour to escape. No fuel consumption. Jason was ready. The instant he heard the system, he floored the gas pedal, the RV engine roaring into gear At the same time, three beams of light crashed down behind the RV, solidifying into three heavily modified cargo trucks. These weren''t your average trucks. The front ends sported massive, spiked bumper meant to do damage, clear signs they were built for ramming. Vrooom! The engines roared to life, and the trucks gave chase. Jason''s quick reaction had given him a head start, so the trucks weren''t right on their tail. Inside the RV. Jason glanced in the rearview mirror and his face paled. This was not good. Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site. The number of pursuers was random, and three cargo trucks meant he''d drawn a short straw. Each truck carried a D+ rank demihuman pursuer. Three trucks equaled three D+ level psychos coming after them, his Shadow Doppelganger wouldnt get him out of that one. There was nothing for him to do but slam on the gas and outrun them. Chloe, in the passenger seat, saw the trucks closing and gasped. She wasn''t sure exactly how dangerous these pursuers were, but the sight of three tricked-out trucks meant their RV wouldn''t stand a chance in a collision. "Hubby, should I blast them with Spiritual Shock?" Chloe asked worriedly. Jason shook his head. "Not yet. Conserve your Spirit for the crucial moment." Chloe''s Spiritual Shock could be a game-changer, Jason wasn''t wasting it. Just then, Ellie peeked in from the back. "Jason, what''s the deal with those trucks? What can we do?" The other girls huddled around the door, anxious to help. Jason didn''t need them in the fight yet, but he told them to prep their crossbows. If things got desperate, they''d need to join the fray. Ellie nodded, and the girls prepped. Even pursuers would think twice before trying to shrug off a volley of crossbow bolts. Jason paused, thinking, then told Ellie a few quick instructions. Chloe and Ellie were grinning. They hadn''t realized Jason had a trick up his sleeve. If it worked, the pursuers wouldn''t have a chance. All across the landscape, Jason and the crew weren''t the only ones trying to evade; cars of all descriptions tore down the highways with all sorts of trucks and contraptions hard on their tails. Some got lucky, hounded by one single, beat-up pickup. Others got screwed over like Jason, with three ramped-up semi-trucks tearing after him. No one was dumb enough to throw the RV into park and fistfight the pursuers. The accelerator pedals hit the floor, no fuel consumed. Jason risked a glance in the rearview mirror. The trucks were closing, but the RV had a chance. The RV wasnt slow - Jason installed a 0-Star engine upgrade giving the machine 75mph maximum speeds The new breed of hunter trucks did not start with a natural top end speed advantage. It became a game of speed now. Jason glared down the road ahead, eyes like lasers. It was all about paying attention. All three of the trailer trucks still maintained solid ground on the tail. Suddenly Jason saw a gold shimmer far off at a patch of road - obviously, not normal pavement. He angled his course towards that strip as a sign of his anticipation to go much faster Whoosh!!! An unimaginable push forced Chloe back into the seats! The vehicles clocked a max instantaneous speed of nearly 120mph!! Argh!!!!! What just happened!? RV just teleported or something!!!! - Jason barely heard anything the ladies asked with such massive g-forces being inflicted. The lady in the front now understood more like that driving simulator they played as girls! Jason, laser-focused on the road in front, kept silent. That sudden speed boost demanded an increased workload. Again, the 3 monster semi trucks mirrored course over the gold shimmering ground, These bursts had only temporary benefits; but each machine slowly lost steam and returned closer to base nominals Again and again the asphalt turned serpentine ahead! They no longer had advantage in their rear, it was now very up close. And the Semis mirrored action had very much an angle too Truck to truck physical contests broke up as these large masses came to tight corners - The inner portion of RV got all their attention by Eleanor again- Just at that instant one particular trailer vehicle managed by skill and some luck had managed to get on top. Seeing how quick one bad accident in driving, that fast semi was makingElie looked with eyes of this time for the switch up!" - the mini cute bad*** inside lit up just like so! Thats exactly when Eleanor received a transmission and tapped onto one app button to enable drops and spawns A Simmons Double Bed appeared right from no where, as she clicked this option Now there would be zero hope of evading that newly appeared obstacle!! "It worked!" Elie exclaimed 83 - Couch Craze *Bam!* The couch Ellie tossed out was demolished by the truck. The truck''s speed dropped drastically, allowing the other two trucks to overtake it. Despite the reduced speed, the truck itself remained largely undamaged. The pursuers'' trucks were modified and reinforced, particularly with a sturdy front bumper designed for impacts. They weren''t about to be taken out by a single couch. Inside the truck. A male Elf subhuman frowned but quickly steered to push the wreckage aside and accelerate after the RV. Due to their recent arrival in Escape World, they had nothing: no speed boosts, no resources, and no Escape Coins. Their trucks had no upgrades. Facing obstacles like sofas, the pursuers were essentially helpless. Dealing with sofas wasn''t particularly difficult but it needed some resources or speed props. The quickest way to get resources was to hunt down car owners, and catch slaves to sell. Basically, they the pursuers were the natural enemy of all escapees. On the highway, the RV continued to be chased by three trucks. Not long after, the Elf subhuman saw another truck ahead crash into a couch, facing the same problem he''d just encountered. "Heh... hehehe..." The Elf couldn''t help but chuckle. Seeing other pursuers share his plight brought him a sense of schadenfreude. After all, the pursuers were in competition. The Elf didn''t want the others to be doing better than him. As he passed the other truck, he saw a dog-headed beastman inside cursing, which made him even happier. "Hmph, stupid dog-head..." the Elf mocked. He figured that after his experience, the others would be wary of sofas. The dog-head clearly hadn''t learned his lesson. As the Elf drove on, he soon found himself facing the same couch dilemma again. Because the road ahead was peppered with speed boosts. The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement. Jason drove the RV over each speed boost, while the women tossed a couch onto each one. To use the speed boosts, the pursuers would have to crash into the sofas, and slow down. But if the pursuers did not use speed boost, they could not keep up with the RV. Inside the RV. Jason was driving, casually crafting more sofas, piling them up and taking space. Except for Tiffany, the women had Strength boosts. "Ellie, let me try tossing a sofa," Lily said excitedly. Ellie, looking disheveled, retreated from the window, her hair a mess. The wind and dust outside were intense. Hearing Lily''s offer, Ellie was happy to pass the torch. She warned her, "Lily, put on goggles and a face mask before you toss a couch. I just ate a mouthful of sand..." Lily hesitated after seeing Ellie''s pathetic appearance. She had just taken a bath, and her hair was still wet, and would be ruined after facing the outside. However, Lily also saw Ellie''s awkwardness, bit her teeth, even did not care about bathing. she did not wear goggles or masks and put her head outside of the car. The other women exchanged glances. They all saw that Lily was taking Ellie''s place in suffering. Kira nodded approvingly. She liked Lily''s self-sacrificing attitude and it earned her more favor points. Kira said, "Sisters, let''s take turns throwing sofas. Pursuer mode lasts an hour, we can''t let Ellie and Lily suffer alone. "Ellie, get goggles and a face mask for Lily." The women agreed to the couch-tossing proposal. They all knew that after they got on this RV, their safety was bounded together, so they contributed. Chloe came out of the driving compartment and reminded the women that couches on speed boosts would create more problems. So the women quickly organized: finding the locations of the speed boost, trading sofa for Lily, carrying sofas, and taking face masks. The bond among the women got tighter. Each sofa being thrown out of the RV, caused chaos for the three trailers at the back. "Damn it, how can there be so many couches..." The Elf finally realized the problem. How many couches does that RV have? More than a dozen had been tossed. All three trailers crashed to slow down. If the couches were tossed on speed boosts, then the trailers will forcefully crashed on them. *Bam!* the Elf subhuman trailer crashed the speed boosts, the car speed instantly increased. but the car then hit a sofa, and crash. The sofa was pushed aside. But the trailer''s window cracked, the front bumper broke. The Elf felt pain for the car and gave up on crashing sofa by speeding up. On the high way, the trailers got irritated. They didn''t imagine the first pursuer experience would be so bad, with never ending supply of sofa on the RV. Could the RV''s abilities is throwing out sofas? The three pursuers understood that catching up the front car would be hard. So they did not crashed into sofa. They just passed it. "Huh..." The elf saw a couch discarded in front of the high way, then got an idea. Then, the elf slowly parked his car, came off the car, actually moved the discarded sofa into the car trunk. Then the two trailers crashed up from behind, their faces turned into magnificent expression when they saw what the Elf did. A bizarre view appeared. The pursuers all gave up pursuing, and started snatching up sofa on the road. They had seen enough and understood that sofas was an excellent tool. So grabbing up more can only create benefits. Regardless, the pursuers cannot crash on the RV, so the couches became trophies for themselves. The three D level Asia men, started almost fighting. Jason obviously don''t know about what happened, but what he know is the sofa has became a "fragrant bun" for the pursuers. At this moment, Ellie came to the driving room and asked "Jason Bro, the trailers have disappeared, do we still toss sofa?" After listening, Jason stunned. Then saw the back mirror and indeed, there were no trailers there. Using discard method...is this easy to get rid of the trailers? 84 - Roles Unveiled "Did we really lose the pursuers that easily?" Jason asked, sounding surprised. Ellie nodded, explaining, "Jason, those three trucks crashed into the sofas and vanished." "We dropped quite a few more sofas after that, so the pursuers shouldn''t be able to catch up now." In Jason''s past life, the pursuers were known for their power and resourcefulness. He never imagined a bunch of discarded sofas would make them give up the chase. But Jason didn''t know that the recently spawned pursuers were broke and had no abilities or resources to speak of. And it wasnt just two or three sofas that Jason had dropped, but a good twenty or thirty. Many were even placed on speed boosters, so without any special tools, how could the pursuers possibly catch up to the RV? Seeing the pursuers were gone, Jason told Ellie to keep two sofas for themselves and throw the rest away. Synthesizing those sofas barely cost any Escape Coins anyway, so he wasn''t worried about the loss. With the pursuers gone, the atmosphere inside the RV relaxed considerably. Following Jason''s instructions, the women tossed out the remaining sofas and then idly chatted inside the RV. Of course, they kept a close eye on the rear, ready to throw out more sofas if the pursuers returned. Having just dropped a load of sofas, the women felt both excited and amused, and their relationships grew closer, leading to more open conversations. Lily and the other two women who had just joined the RV crew were also starting to fit in. Lily and Tiffany, in particular, had been worried about their lives in the RV. But after talking to Kira and Ellie, they learned that Jason treated his women well. They could see it from the state of Chloe and the others C Jason didn''t abuse or mistreat them. Plus, there was plenty of food and drink, and he helped them develop their strength. As long as they didn''t betray him or disrupt the harmony between the sisters, they could expect a good life in the RV. As for Sophie, she already knew how good life in the RV was, thanks to Chloe. With a simple heart and no bad intentions, she was happy just to stay with Jason and Chloe, and she got along well with the others. The RV continued down the road, unimpeded, waiting for pursuer mode to end. Jason drove, relieved that the pursuers hadn''t reappeared, allowing the voices of the chatting women in the RV were light and laughter filled the interior. Chloe, sitting in the passenger seat, glanced back, noticing that Ellie was bragging about her accuracy with a crossbow, saying that goblins would scatter in fear just at the sight of her. The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. Lily naturally didn''t believe it and questioned Ellie, searching for flaws in her stories. Their endless bickering led to plenty of jokes, and the other sisters egged them on, suggesting that they should hold a competition to test each other skills in a duel in marksmanship Tiffany added that a simple shooting contest wouldn''t be interesting enough and suggested adding other types of competition and excitement. That would make them even more happy, or, and it will be the referee''s fault to settle that. This meant to witness and entertained for a time period with joy and relief. Lily wasn''t originally afraid of competing, but the topic and suggestions kept going in weird directions. Ellie even suggested comparing Physique that evening, which was just too far to even begin the discuss on. And with all the women watching and judging, she''d be too embarrassed, and her A-Rank strength would be exposed. Lily immediately said that she was a newbie who hadn''t trained her Physique, so she wouldn''t participate in a competition she was sure to lose. Sophie, sitting next to Jenna, covered her mouth and giggled, her face breaking into smiles after being amused by Ellie and Lily''s conversation. Seeing Sophie smile, Chloe felt relieved. Sophie had been down ever since the killing, and Chloe had been worried. But seeing Sophie now, it was clear the issue wasn''t serious. Then, Chloe smiled at Jason. "Hubby, looks like the sisters are getting along well." Jason was focused on driving, wondering why the pursuers hadn''t returned, and he hadn''t really paid attention to the women''s chatter. Hearing Chloe say that the women were getting along, he listened more closely and nodded. Whether overtly or privately, Jason didn''t want infighting among the women. In a crisis, any discord could lead to loss or even the group''s destruction. Jason didn''t want to see that happen in his team. Through this escape, Jason had also identified a few issues. For instance, his driving was limiting himself. He could entrust driving to the other women, freeing up his combat ability. Besides, every team needed different roles, such as drivers, support staff, intelligence officers, cooks, medics, assistants, scouts, ranged attackers, and main fighters. Jason''s role was the owner, and he needed to be one of the main fighters; he couldn''t always be the driver. He hadn''t passed the driving responsibility to any of the women because he had been concerned the pursuers would catch the RV. In the future, he would no longer continue being the driver. He had to select someone from among the women to drive. Additionally, Chloe and Kira should be trained as main fighters, and being a driver wasn''t a good fit for them. Even Lily, with her combative nature, could be developed into a main fighter. Ellie had a talent for shooting, making her the natural choice for the team''s ranged attacker. In the future, when they acquired any ranged racing items, Ellie would be the one to use them. In battles, Ellie could use crossbows for ranged attacks. If he found any decent ranged weapons or shooting skills in the future, Ellie would get first dibs. As for Jenna, she was undoubtedly the team''s cook. Any ingredients and food recipes he found would be given to Jenna. That left Tiffany and Sophie, and Jason hadn''t yet decided which direction to develop them in. If Tiffany was good at driving, she could be the team''s future driver. If not, she could be in charge of support, trading and buying items, managing intelligence, or even helping Jenna in the kitchen. As the RV filled with people, the workload in the kitchen would definitely increase, and Jenna might not be able to handle it alone. As for Sophie she could develop as a medic. Any healing skills or potion recipes he found could be given to Sophie. Overall, Jason''s team needed more members. The number of people in his RV couldn''t compare to Joyces Feminism Cult. Even with the addition of Joyce, he still didn''t have the numbers. Joyces Feminism Cult had thirty to forty female RV owners, over a hundred core members, and more than a thousand peripheral members. Even David in his past life had thirty to forty women in his RV, along with a good number of RV owners under his command. Of course, Jason''s team would focus on quality over quantity, and he aimed to be stronger than those teams in quality. As Jason drove, pondering how to develop and strengthen his team, the system notified him of a message from Joyce. Jason opened the system to check and immediately changed his expression. Joyce wanted to deal with the pursuers and asked if Jason could send a Shadow Doppelganger to support her. 85 - Drift & Revenge Jason received Joyce''s plea for help, realizing things must be rough for her to ask for his aid. So, Jason stopped the RV and let Chloe drive, continuing their escape. The pursuers were already far behind; as long as Chloe didn''t drive too slow, they shouldn''t catch up. The women were puzzled when Jason stopped the RV. "Hubby, what''s wrong?" Chloe asked, confused. Jason got up, handing the driver''s seat to Chloe, "Chloe, you drive. Joyce is in a bit of trouble and needs me to send a Shadow Doppelganger to help." Chloe understood and immediately took the driver''s seat, starting the RV. Jason briefly told the women to watch out for the pursuers. He took out the 1-Star Spear he''d obtained earlier and summoned a Shadow Doppelganger. As Physique and Spirit were consumed, a Shadow Doppelganger identical to Jason appeared. The Shadow Doppelganger took the 1-Star Spear, and Jason traded it to Joyce. Jason himself closed his eyes, lying on the bed to recover Physique and Spirit. Seeing this, the women stopped chatting, afraid to disturb Jason. The RV became incredibly quiet. Since they had nothing to do, Kira went to the passenger seat to keep Chloe company, and Jenna and Ellie went to the kitchen to prepare a feast for dinner. Lily and the other two girls also wanted to help in the kitchen, but Jenna stopped them. The kitchen didn''t need too many people. The three could only obediently sit on the sofa and rest, occasionally getting up to check the windows for pursuers, or to glance at Jason lying on the bed. Meanwhile, BAM! The Shadow Doppelganger, holding the 1-Star Spear, had barely been traded over when he felt a jolt and nearly fell. It turned out that the pursuer''s truck was ramming Joyce''s rear, causing the car to shake. The car was filled with swarming bees and wasps, probably disturbed by the collision. Jason looked around and realized the interior was two or three times larger than before, expanded after the vehicle upgraded to 1-Star. "Jason, let''s stop and fight the pursuers," Joyce said, holding a Wooden Spear, her face full of anger as she approached Jason. Her car had been hit by the pursuer''s truck several times, making her want to stop immediately and fight back. You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story. Huh? Jason was taken aback and looked at the driver''s seat in confusion. It was empty. Joyce was standing in front of him, and the car was still moving. Jason jumped, quickly asking, "Joyce You don''t need to drive?" Joyce blinked, looking at the Shadow Doppelganger with a surprised expression. It was the first time she had seen Jason scared. She giggled. "HeheHahaha, Jason! This is an ability I unlocked after upgrading my car to 1-Star! I can use Spirit to control the car." "Also, after upgrading, my bee colonies can produce honey that heals injuries every day, and the wasps venom has a dazing effect." Joyce remembered that she hadn''t told Jason about her new abilities, so she explained them to him. Jason realized that Joyce was using Spirit to control the vehicle. In fact, controlling the car with Spirit was a huge burden for Joyce. She had only started doing it after the Shadow Doppelganger arrived. Controlling the bees occupied Spirit but didn''t consume it, while driving the car did consume Spirit. They conflicted. If too much Spirit was consumed, the bees would go out of control and lash out. This was why Joyce didn''t learn Spirit-consuming skills like Shadow Doppelganger. Before Jason could say anything, Joyce''s face changed, and she closed her eyes to control the car. Her car performed a beautiful drifting maneuver around a sharp bend ahead. Screechthe tires rubbed against the ground, making noise. The car swerved, and both Joyce and the Shadow Doppelganger nearly fell over. Luckily, Jason reacted quickly, steadying himself and helping Joyce. On the road, the pursuers were stunned. Joyces drifting maneuver had been amazing. If Joyce had had this driving skill earlier, they would have lost her a long time ago. With that one turn, Joyce had gained a dozen yards on the pursuers. The pursuers didn''t know how to drift, so they had to slow down to turn. Joyce hadnt expected using Spirit to control the car to be so effective, but she couldnt maintain it for long. So, Joyce looked at the Shadow Doppelganger, "Jason, let''s stop and take out the pursuers. Ill use the wasp swarm to help you." Joyce''s confidence came from the wasp swarm. If the pursuers were stung a few times, they would be dazed and defenseless. Jason asked, "Wait, Joyce, how many trucks are chasing you?" "Two trucks," Joyce replied honestly. Jason went to the window and glanced at the two trucks behind them. The two all-around D-Rank pursuers werent easy to deal with, and the wind outside was strong, which would limit Joyces bees. He wasnt sure if they could win. Besides, Jason didnt know that the pursuers who had just descended were broke, with not even a single Escape Coin. Even if they won, they wouldn''t get anything. So, Jason didn''t support fighting the pursuers and told Joyce his thoughts. Joyce frowned. "Jason, I dont want to fight the pursuers either." "But they''ve hit me several times. If we keep running, my car will be wrecked sooner or later." Joyces driving skills werent great, and she couldnt maintain Spirit control for long. Fighting the pursuers was a desperate measure. Jason smiled. "Isn''t it great that you can use Spirit to drive? I cant even drift like you did." Joyce rolled her eyes. She didn''t have that much Spirit to control the car. Then, Joyce''s eyes lit up, and she asked, "Jason, are you going to give me D-Rank Attribute Orbs to strengthen my Spirit?" If Jason could give her a few D-Rank Attribute Orbs to boost her Spirit, it would solve the current problem. "Uh" Jason scratched his nose awkwardly. He didn''t have any extra D-Rank Attribute Orbs at the moment. So, Jason explained, "I dont have any extra Attribute Orbs, but I have equipment that restores Spirit. You can also put on sofa..." Jason told Joyce about the Simmons Double Bed''s abilities and how to placed the Sofa. Joyces eyes lit up, and she jumped up and down with joy. "That''s great, Jason! I want to put Sofa on my car! The pursuers almost wrecked my car, so now I can finally get revenge!" Jason smiled faintly, his consciousness returning to his main body. Then, he traded the Simmons Double Bed and Sofa to Joyce. 86 - Chase is Over "Wow, this bed is huge!" Joyce looked at the Simmons double bed in front of her, feeling delighted. Her RV didn''t have a bed, and she had to lie in the driver''s seat at night. It was nowhere near as comfortable as lying on this big bed. Then Joyce looked at the Shadow Doppelganger with its eyes closed, feeling a little regretful. It would have been great if it were Jason himself. It was such a waste for her to sleep alone. But even though Jason wasn''t by her side, he hadn''t treated her badly. He gave her a bathroom, a bed, and equipment to upgrade her 1-Star RV. She kept all of that in her heart. Joyce had already decided that she would use the wound-healing honey to trade for gasoline, collect more resources, and find good stuff to repay Jason. The wound-healing honey was an extremely valuable resource. The bees in her RV could produce a lot of honey every day, and there would definitely be plenty of people willing to trade it for gasoline. "This is so comfortable!" Joyce immediately lay down on the bed, the softness making her groan in contentment. Then, Joyce felt her Spirit start to recover. What surprised her was that although the recovery speed of her Spirit couldn''t keep up with the consumption rate of controlling the RV, it wasn''t far off. Joyce could definitely maintain RV control for a long time while lying in bed. This Simmons double bed was simply perfect for her. Then Joyce remembered the method Jason had taught her to toss the sofas. She came to the RV window and opened the system to receive the sofas gifted by Jason. After that, sofas were thrown onto the highway as if they were free. And the two pursuers behind her were in trouble. They couldn''t avoid the suddenly appearing sofas and all crashed into them, unable to catch up with Joyce in a short time. Joyce giggled and lay back on the bed to focus on controlling the RV and escaping. On the other side. Jason learned that Joyce''s problem was solved, and then received the 1-Star Long Spear sent by Joyce. He had thought that there would be a big battle when the Shadow Doppelganger went over, but he didn''t expect it to be resolved so easily. Jason sat up from the bed and found Lily, Tiffany, and ?Joy sitting on the sofa, looking at him. So he asked with a smile, "Do you want to come lie on the bed for a while too?" The three women blushed upon hearing this and shook their heads together. Even though they had already prepared themselves to devote themselves to him, they were too embarrassed to go to bed in this situation. Lily quickly said, "Jason, we still have to watch out for the pursuers, so we''d better not lie down..." This story has been unlawfully obtained without the author''s consent. Report any appearances on Amazon. Jason nodded, knowing that the three women were shy. He was just asking casually. But Jason didn''t get out of bed. He had consumed half of his Physique and Spirit when he condensed the Shadow Doppelganger, so he needed to lie in bed and rest for a while. Anyway, there was nothing else to do, so Jason lay in bed and chatted with the three women, building up their relationship. About an hour later. Ding! Pursuer Mode ended. With a system notification sounding, all the trucks driven by the pursuers were enveloped in white light and disappeared on the highway. Everyone who had been chased and escaped breathed a sigh of relief, and then cursed the pursuers. This hour of escape was thrilling for them, and many vehicles were damaged to varying degrees. They were lucky. Those who were unlucky had already been taken out by the pursuers. And the chat channel had already exploded. Everyone was discussing the situation of the pursuers. Because during this hour, the number of people in the channel had dropped by nearly two thousand. The total number of people in the channel dropped from more than seven thousand to more than five thousand. And some of these five thousand people were still on the bus, leaving only a few hundred RV owners. But even if everyone complained and feared, they still continued to repair their RVs, collect resources, and recruit followers. Inside Jason''s RV. Compared to the gloom of other teams, the atmosphere in the RV was much more relaxed. Jason opened the system to check the time. It was already past 3 PM. Then, he summoned all the women. A moment later, the RV slowly stopped. Chloe and Kira walked out of the driver''s seat, and Ellie and Jenna came out of the kitchen. The women all gathered together, discussing that the pursuers had indeed not chased after them. The ones who had the most say here were Ellie and Lily. After all, most of the sofas were thrown by the two women. They were practically wearing "I''m a hero" on their faces. Jason clapped his hands with a smile, signaling the women to stop talking. "Okay, now that the Pursuer Mode is over, I have something to tell you all." The women immediately stopped talking and all looked at Jason curiously. Jason signaled the women to all sit down, and then said, "There are quite a few people in our team now, and I want to discuss the issue of division of labor with you." "For example, combat personnel. Our Attribute Orbs and other resources are limited, so they will definitely be given priority to the combat personnel in the future. It''s impossible to strengthen everyone equally." Jason had chatted with Lily and the other two women for nearly an hour, and he had some understanding of their situation and thoughts. For example, ?Joy and Tiffany weren''t very interested in killing monsters and looting treasure chests. On the other hand, Lily was very excited, wishing Jason would quickly teach her how to fight monsters. So Jason decided to assign the duties he had thought of before, such as driver, chef, logistics, and combat personnel, to the women. He hadn''t assigned them before because there weren''t many people in the RV, so there was no point in assigning them. Now that there were more women in the RV, it was indeed time to assign some duties. After all, it was necessary to build up the team framework first so that problems could be solved effectively. Then, when more women got into the RV in the future, he could just add duties according to the situation. Jason saw that the women were all obediently sitting on the sofa, and then he said, "There are quite a few people in our RV, and there will definitely be more people getting into the RV in the future, so we need to assign everyone''s duties and build the team framework first." The women''s expressions were different after hearing this. Some didn''t care, some were curious, and some were worried. Jason looked at Jenna and said, "First of all, Jenna will be our team''s chef from now on." "Jenna will be responsible for everyone''s food. You can also buy whatever ingredients you''re missing in the chat channel yourself." "In the future, the team will also give you any recipes and items related to the chef." Jenna nodded with determination and immediately assured Jason and her sisters that she would definitely make delicious food for everyone. Then, Jason looked at Ellie and said, "Ellie, you will be our team''s shooter from now on." Shooter? Including Ellie, all the women were confused. They all knew that Ellie had some talent in shooting, but there was no need to specially assign her to a position, right? Since Ellie was good at shooting crossbows, she could be classified as a combat personnel. Ellie herself thought so too. So Ellie immediately said, "Jason, I want to be a combat personnel..." Jason had just said that Attribute Orbs would be given priority to combat personnel, and Ellie also wanted to strengthen her attributes and then hold a Wooden Spear to slaughter Goblins. In short, although she had shooting talent, she also had a melee heart. 87 - Role Call Chapter 87: Role Call Jason noticed Ellie''s desire to become a combatant, which reminded him of her clumsy attempt to poke Goblins with a Wooden Spear that morning, nearly hitting Kira. Clearly, Ellie''s close combat skills were lacking, and she needed to toughen up mentally. Of course, these minor issues would resolve themselves as she gained more combat experience. In essence, Ellie was simply inexperienced in battle. So, Jason smiled and explained to Ellie, "A sharpshooter is also a combatant but with an added responsibility." "Don''t worry; I''ll focus on developing your skills, and you''ll get to use any decent ranged weapons and skills we find in the future." Ellie''s eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she felt that being a sharpshooter sounded pretty good. So, Ellie quickly asked, "Jason, what''s the extra responsibility of a sharpshooter?" Chloe and the other women all looked at Jason with curiosity. Jason explained, "I got intel from Sonny that there will be ranged shooting items in the future, which need someone with accuracy to use. That will be your job." "Especially in pursuer mode, we''ll often need ranged shooting items. Whether we can escape from the pursuers will depend on your shooting talent." Jason used Sonny to cover up his knowledge of the future. Sonny was a celebrity now, and the women all knew his fortune-telling abilities were incredible, so they wouldn''t doubt him. Ellie immediately jumped up excitedly upon hearing this, patting her chest to guarantee she would become a great sharpshooter. Then, Ellie raised an eyebrow at Lily with a smug look on her face that she couldn''t hide. The two women had somehow started competing with each other. Of course, they had no bad intentions; the competition was just to see who was better. Lily was naturally envious of Ellie but pretended to be indifferent, rolling her eyes. It''s just a sharpshooter; what''s there to show off? Once her strength improved, she could easily beat Ellie in close combat. Then, Lily looked expectantly at Jason, her eyes almost telling him directly that she wanted to be a combatant. She had already hinted to Jason that she wanted to become a powerhouse, kill monsters, and loot Bronze Chest when they chatted earlier. Jason also sensed Lily''s gaze, so he announced the combatants. "As for the combatants in our team, we have Chloe, Kira, Lily, and Ellie. From now on, the team''s Attribute Orbs will mainly be used to develop you four." Chloe and Kira were a given. Jason trusted them completely, and the two women were already becoming his right-hand men. If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. Jason wasn''t surprised that Lily wanted to become stronger. In the previous life, they often leaned on each other at night on the bus, talking about their expectations and fantasies, encouraging each other to survive. Lily had often fantasized about becoming a powerhouse in the future... Now that Lily still had this idea, Jason would naturally help her become a powerhouse. Then, Jason looked at Jenna, Tiffany, and Sophie. "Although you are not combatants, you will still get Attribute Orbs in the future. I don''t need you to fight, but you must have the strength to protect yourselves." Jenna and the three women nodded in unison. They were not very interested in fighting in the first place. So, they didn''t have any complaints about not becoming combatants. Currently, only Tiffany and Sophie had not been assigned positions. Jason first looked at Tiffany and asked, "Tiffany, are you interested in taking charge of the team''s logistics?" Actually, Jason had originally wanted Tiffany to be the team''s driver, but he learned that she couldn''t drive when they were chatting earlier. After some thought, Jason decided to let Tiffany handle the team''s logistics. Logistics actually meant helping Jason sell items to earn resources and Escape Coins, replacing Chloe and the other women in selling Wooden Spear at night. Chloe had sold a large number of Wooden Spear for three consecutive days and had been noticed by someone who was interested. Someone had even privately messaged Chloe to ask why she was making so many Wooden Spear, so Chloe and the women would definitely not be able to sell other items in large quantities in the future. If someone found out that Chloe and the women were all in Jason''s RV, then Jason''s ability to collect Blueprints would not be able to be hidden. So, Jason decided to let Tiffany be responsible for the team''s logistics. Tiffany wouldn''t buy and sell supplies in the chat channel like Chloe, but would trade valuable resources with various teams privately. For low-end supplies like Wooden Spear, Tiffany only needed to find a few people on the bus to help sell them. Even if someone wanted to investigate, it would be difficult to find out about Tiffany. Jason told Tiffany about the responsibilities of logistics. Tiffany''s eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she liked the job that Jason arranged. Tiffany was very shrewd and good at calculating, so she was very suitable to help Jason with this kind of thing. Finally, Jason smiled and looked at Sophie and said, "Sophie, I want you to be responsible for the team''s medical care in the future." "I will give you any healing skills or related items and props we find in the future." Sophie nodded quickly after hearing this: "Okay, okay, I listen to Jason." Sophie had a relatively weak personality, and Jason felt that she was very suitable for medical care. However, skills in this area were very rare, even more precious than combat skills, and Jason would have a hard time finding them in a short period of time. So, Jason looked at Sophie and continued, "Sophie, I also want to temporarily give you a task that is not difficult." Sophie nodded excitedly upon hearing this. Jason had her responsible for medical care. But she had no medical skills, and she was just an idler in the car. While the other sisters had things to do, she naturally didn''t want to be idle. Jason gave her another task out of this consideration. "Our team is still short of people responsible for intelligence, and we need you to fill in temporarily..." Because Jason participated in the Zombie Dungeon, there were significant differences from the previous life. Jason couldn''t always rely on the intelligence from the previous life. So, Jason needed Sophie to monitor the chat channel and also develop some intelligence personnel. The Hurricane World would end in three days, and then they would enter the next extreme heat world. At that time, they would merge with people from other regions, and the chat channel would have a total of 20,000 people. Among them was a very powerful large group of thousands of people, led by Wang Ling. Jason needed Sophie to befriend some women on the bus now. If any of these women joined feminism, Sophie might be able to find out the internal intelligence of feminism. In the previous life, David''s team and feminism often had friction, conflicts, and battles. Jason replaced David in this life, and it was estimated that he would also have conflicts with feminism. Therefore, arranging some intelligence personnel inside feminism in advance was beneficial for gaining the upper hand. Now that Jason had arranged the positions of all the women, he found that there were still women missing in the RV. Especially female drivers with good driving skills. However, Jason couldn''t recruit people these days, so he could only wait and see in the extreme heat world. 88 - Spear Sales **Chapter 88: Selling Kevin** With the end of the pursuer mode, Chloe continued driving the RV, scavenging for supplies. Jason realized that, apart from himself, Chloe, and Kira, none of the other women on the RV knew how to drive. What if Jason, Chloe and Kira weren''t on the RV? Wouldn''t that mean no one could drive it? Since the group currently had no dedicated driver, Jason decided that all the women should take some time to learn how to drive. He wasn''t asking them to be pro drivers, but at least be able to handle the RV if needed. So, Ellie and Lily went to the driver''s seat to learn driving from Chloe. Kira and Jenna went to the kitchen to prepare a big dinner. Jason sat on the couch, with Tiffany on his left and Sophie on his right, guiding them on how to trade resources and develop informants. "Tiffany, you can find more people on the bus to help you sell items..." "Sophie, you need to find people to be your eyes and ears. You don''t need them to do anything right now, just give them a couple pieces of jerky to build rapport..." Tiffany''s face flushed as she nodded tightly in Jason''s arms. It was the first time she had been held by a man, and she seemed nervous and uncomfortable. On the other hand, Sophie was quite relaxed in Jason''s arms. If it wasn''t for the slight blush on her face, you wouldn''t have noticed anything was amiss. Following Jason''s instructions, the two women started looking for informants and sales contacts in the Group Chat App. On a certain bus, Kevin opened the system and requested a serving of food for 3 Escape Coins. The market price for a loaf of bread was over 5 Escape Coins, so trying to buy a serving of food for 3 Escape Coins was practically impossible. But Kevin had only earned 3 Escape Coins from opening Bronze Chest today. He might earn another coin or two if he kept opening Bronze Chests before dark, but he couldn''t wait that long. He was too hungry. If he couldn''t get food, he might not even have the strength to get off the bus, let alone continue opening Bronze Chests. So Kevin decided to try his luck and see if anyone was willing to sell him some food. Kevin''s request for food had been posted on the Group Chat App for ages, but hardly anyone paid attention. One person offered him two finger-sized pieces of Gray Wolf jerky. Another person offered him a half-eaten piece of bread. Neither the Gray Wolf jerky nor the half-eaten bread was much, but Kevin really didn''t have any other options. He could only buy one to relieve his hunger for now. If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. Just as Kevin was hesitating whether to get the jerky or the half-eaten bread, someone actually initiated a trade with him. Kevin opened it and was overjoyed. Someone was willing to sell him a loaf of bread for 3 Escape Coins. System transactions were legit, so Kevin, afraid the other party would cancel the trade, immediately accepted and quickly got a loaf of bread. Kevin didn''t care about anything else and immediately started devouring the bread. It was best to eat any food on the bus as soon as possible, otherwise something unexpected might happen, like someone stealing it. Sure enough, a young woman on the bus immediately noticed that Kevin was eating bread. "Kevin... share a piece of bread with me, and I''ll let you touch me, how about that?" The young woman slightly opened her jacket, her eyes fixed on the bread in Kevin''s hand. If Kevin could earn a few Escape Coins from opening Bronze Chest, the women on the bus couldn''t earn any resources even if they tried opening Bronze Chest. In this dog-eat-dog Escape World, women had to trade their bodies for food. Kevin paused his eating and subconsciously glanced at the white expanse of flesh in front of her, then shook his head. Soon, Kevin finished the loaf of bread, and the young woman could only despairingly sit back down. The gazes of some people on the bus also shifted away from Kevin. Kevin felt the gazes leaving him and couldn''t help but breathe a sigh of relief. Then, Kevin took out a small piece of bread, which he had secretly hidden just now, and tossed it to the young woman when no one was paying attention. The young woman was stunned, looking at the small piece of bread in her hand, her eyes filled with tears of excitement. She quickly stuffed it into her mouth and looked at Kevin gratefully. Kevin shook his head at the young woman. He wasn''t giving her food to take advantage of her. Losing a bite of bread wasn''t a big deal to him. He just couldn''t bear to see her starve to death. Kevin also had a beloved wife, and helping the young woman reminded him of his own wife. "That''s right..." Kevin suddenly remembered that he had gotten a good deal by exchanging 3 Escape Coins for a loaf of bread. He had to thank the other person. So, Kevin opened the system and discovered that the person who sold him the bread was a young and pretty woman named Tiffany. Kevin wasn''t stupid. The fact that she was willing to sell him bread for 3 Escape Coins meant she definitely wasn''t on the bus. Tiffany was either a driver or a follower of a driver. So Kevin private messaged Tiffany to express his gratitude. After about a minute, Tiffany sent a message asking, "Are you on the bus?" Kevin naturally admitted it, his heart beating faster. Could it be... she wanted to recruit him? "Send a photo of yourself on the bus," Tiffany continued. Kevin immediately used the system to take two photos of the bus and sent them to Tiffany. But Kevin was soon disappointed. Tiffany didn''t want to recruit him. She just wanted him to help sell some Wooden Spears, and he would get one Escape Coin for each Wooden Spear he sold. Kevin licked his lips. He didn''t understand why Tiffany didn''t sell the Wooden Spears herself, but he wouldn''t pass up the opportunity to earn Escape Coins. So Kevin started selling Wooden Spears on the Group Chat App as Tiffany requested. Although Chloe had sold a lot of Wooden Spears before, Wooden Spears were easily damaged, so the demand was high. Also, many people on the bus had saved up enough Escape Coins to buy Wooden Spears to hunt Gray Wolf. Relying solely on opening Bronze Chest on the bus wasn''t enough to feed everyone. Only by hunting Gray Wolf could they ensure that everyone on the bus got food. So there was no shortage of buyers for cheap weapons like Wooden Spears. Several people immediately asked Kevin to buy Wooden Spears, but Kevin didn''t have any Wooden Spears in hand. He could only ask Tiffany for them first. Soon, Kevin had a Wooden Spear in his hand. Looking at the Wooden Spear in his hand, a trace of greed rose in Kevin''s heart. At this moment, Tiffany sent him another message: "If you dare to pocket this Wooden Spear, I''ll put a bounty on your head in the Group Chat App." Tiffany''s message was extremely cold, as if she knew he was tempted to pocket the Wooden Spear. Kevin gulped, breaking out in a cold sweat. Tiffany could use just one Wooden Spear to put a bounty on his head in the Group Chat App, and someone on the bus would definitely attack him if they saw the bounty. No wonder she had asked him to send photos of the bus earlier, she was checking if he was really on the bus. Kevin quickly replied to Tiffany, saying he wouldn''t dare, and then put away his petty thoughts. He immediately traded the Wooden Spear, received 20 Escape Coins, and then transferred them to Tiffany. After selling 5 Wooden Spears in a row, Tiffany gave him 5 Escape Coins, which was his share of selling the Wooden Spears. Looking at the 5 Escape Coins that belonged to him, Kevin was extremely excited and quickly thanked Tiffany. 89 - Racing Items "I still have a large number of Wooden Spears and various items to sell. Are you willing to continue selling them?" Tiffany messaged Kevin. Selling too many Wooden Spears and miscellaneous items would definitely attract attention. There was a big risk involved; a single mistake could cost you your life. But when Kevin saw the message, he wasn''t worried. Instead, he clenched his fists in excitement. Profit often comes with risk. He was broke and his life was worthless, so he wasn''t afraid of any risk. This was his only chance to turn things around, and he had to seize it. So Kevin quickly replied to Tiffany, "Tiffany, I''m willing to sell. You can confidently entrust this matter to me. I guarantee I can do it perfectly." With Kevin''s constant assurances, and a mix of threats and incentives from Tiffany, she recruited Kevin as her sales rep. After Tiffany''s warning, Kevin naturally wouldn''t dare to reveal Tiffany to anyone. For Tiffany, a sales rep like Kevin could be found easily on any bus. But Tiffany was Kevin''s only chance to turn his life around. Kevin wouldn''t be foolish enough to reveal Tiffany to anyone. Not only would he anger Tiffany, but if someone else snatched his sales job, Kevin would have no one to cry to. In fact, Kevin was already considered a peripheral member of Jason''s team, he just didn''t know it yet. If Kevin could take this opportunity to dominate the bus, it would count as forming a team. Perhaps later, when Jason had conflicts with large groups like Feminism, he could lead his team to support Jason, and might be cultivated by Jason. But currently, Kevin was just a salesperson selected by Tiffany. No one knew what he would achieve in the future. Besides having Kevin sell Wooden Spears, Tiffany would also have him sell some miscellaneous items, such as toilet paper, lighters, etc. The profits on these items weren''t great, and selling them was extremely troublesome and tedious. Giving them to Kevin would save Tiffany a lot of time and energy. Tiffany herself was selling five kinds of 0-Star Vehicle equipment, a 1-Star Vehicle Front Bumper, and 1-Star Battle Boots in the chat channel. Those who could afford these items were either RV owners or strong individuals with resources. As soon as someone bought an item, Tiffany would add them as a friend to develop them as a customer, making it easier to privately trade other items later. Compared to Tiffany''s busy work, Joy''s side was much easier. Following Jason''s instructions, Joy found some women on the bus who were struggling to survive, and gave them a few pieces of wolf jerky, easily adding them as friends. The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation. These wolf jerkies were made by Jenna when she was bored, using the kitchen''s dehydrator. They weren''t seasoned and tasted terrible. But the awful jerky was food for these women. They wished they could get more jerky from Joy. Therefore, both sides intended to befriend each other, and Joy easily became friends with these women. In the future, some of these women might join Feminism. Joy might be able to gather intelligence about Feminism from these women. Of course, this was just a move Jason had set up, and no one knew if it would be effective. Joy''s main task was to help Jason monitor the chat channel. Mainly to monitor major events that everyone was paying attention to and discussing, as well as who was selling valuable items. Especially if someone sold valuable items in the channel, and Jason didn''t notice the chat channel and it was bought by someone else, it would be a pity. Joy briefly looked at the topics everyone was discussing in the chat channel, then reported to Jason, "Jason, everyone in the chat channel is talking about the Pursuer killing two thousand people." "If the pursuer mode comes again tomorrow, I estimate that there won''t be many teams left besides those on the buses." Jason shook his head and smiled: "It''s okay, anyway, the pursuer can''t catch us." In fact, half of those two thousand people didn''t die at the hands of the pursuer; they were just captured by the pursuer and became slaves. After those people became slaves, they were removed from the chat channel. So everyone thought they were killed by the pursuer. The pursuer captured slaves to sell them to rich RV owners like Jason, in order to earn Escape Coins. Some pursuers would even cultivate the slaves'' abilities or strengths in order to sell them at a higher price. Maybe Jason will buy high-quality beautiful slave girls from the pursuers in the future. After those slaves are bought by the RV owners, the slave status will be lifted and they will return to the chat channel. Time passed... The RV searched for chests on the highway. After encountering a chest, Jason took Chloe, Kira, Lily and Ellie out of the car to kill monsters. As the team''s main combat power, killing monsters and finding chests would be their main task in the future. So Jason wouldn''t take action, and would only guide the four girls on how to fight from the sidelines. Among the four girls, Lily grew up very quickly. Although she seemed a little flustered when she started killing monsters, she quickly adapted. Under Jason''s training, they gradually exerted their own attribute advantages, and it was no problem to kill Goblins at all. After finishing the chest, Jason returned to the RV to stay with Tiffany and Joy. When Tiffany sold items, Jason would synthesize items for her in time. Then Jason would look at the chat channel with Joy. With contact and companionship with Tiffany and Joy, Jason''s relationship with the two girls gradually became closer, which was conducive to collecting Favor Points later. In particular, Jason noticed that Joy was not in good condition and was yawning from time to time, probably because she hadn''t rested well on the bus these past few days. He took the two girls to bed for a while to recover from their fatigue. When it was almost evening, the RV was running out of gas, so they stopped to rest. In the afternoon, Chloe and the girls opened Bronze Chests. In addition to some ordinary supplies, they also harvested some good props. Banana Peel: Racing item, which can be placed on the highway. After being stepped on by other vehicles, the vehicle will slide and lose control. Note: Use of this prop requires a vehicle launcher. Vehicle Repair Toolbox: Can repair damaged vehicles and restore the vehicle to its original condition. Fertilizer: Accelerates crop growth. Bandage: Heals minor injuries. The drop rate of good things obviously increased in the afternoon. This was actually related to the increase in the number of monsters guarding the treasure chests and the end of pursuer mode. Jason put away all four props. They couldn''t be used for the time being. Although fertilizer can be used on wheat or rice, there is only one piece of fertilizer and it can only be used on one crop. Also, rice and wheat will mature in two or three days, and it would be a waste to use fertilizer. Besides, Jason has endless bread in his hands and doesn''t lack staple foods at all. Lets use the fertilizer for finding other seeds in the future. "Jason, dinner is ready, sis made a lot of dishes." Ellie hopped out of the kitchen. Jason and the girls immediately smelled the aroma of food wafting from the kitchen. 90 - Auction Bidding The aroma of a home-cooked meal filled the RV. Jenna had outdone herself, preparing a feast to welcome Lily and the beautiful sisters, Tiffany and Sophie, aboard. She put her heart into it. Jason and the girls gathered around the table, ready to dig in. "Wow, Jenna did you make all this?" Tiffany asked, genuinely impressed. She knew Jenna could cook, but this spread was something else. Who would have thought such a delicate girl had such culinary skills? Ellie, standing nearby, puffed out her chest with pride. "Of course, my sister did! If we had more ingredients, it could be even better." Limited by available ingredients, the meal was mainly pork-based: braised pork, ribs, pork knuckles, and ham hocks. Lily smiled, wrapping her arm around Jenna''s. "Jenna, I heard you''re teaching Ellie how to cook. Teach me too, okay?" Jenna nodded, smiling. She''d be happy to teach Lily how to cook. Ellie''s eyes sparkled. She was already learning from her sister; Lily''s cooking skills couldn''t possibly be as good. She could definitely one-up Lily in the kitchen. Jason glanced at the predominantly meaty dishes, deep in thought. What Jenna lacked were vegetables, fruits, chicken, duck, fish, eggs C things that came from farming and raising livestock. To diversify their future meals, he''d need to incorporate farming and animal husbandry into his RV setup. Getting his hands on some seeds should be a priority. Other groups might have seeds, but planting and breeding animals were essentially renewable resources, so no one would sell them. After all, the daily harvest of fruits and vegetables was a reliable source of income. But Jason had a plan. He could trade his planting pots for their seeds. Surely some people were stuck with seeds but no pots to grow them in. Jason decided to try trading planting pots for seeds after dinner. "Alright, let''s welcome Lily, Tiffany, and Sophie to our team!" Jason raised his glass of orange juice. Everyone raised their glasses for a toast, then tucked into the feast. As they ate, they chatted about the day''s experiences and funny moments. With Ellie and Lily playfully bickering, the RV was filled with laughter. As the dishes gradually emptied, the satisfying dinner drew to a close. Jason left the girls to clean up the kitchen, then joined Tiffany on the couch to continue trading supplies. Evenings were the busiest time for trading, so Jason and Tiffany needed to make the most of it, earning Escape Coins to exchange for valuable items. If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. Kevin handled the low-end stuff, leaving Tiffany to sell the 1-Star Boots, Vehicle Front Bumper, and the five 0-Star vehicle upgrades. Jason posted a message in the chat channel, offering planting pots in exchange for seeds. Before long, several people contacted him. However, they weren''t interested in trading seeds for pots; they wanted to buy them with resources or Escape Coins. These people only had a few seeds, so trading them for a pot was clearly not worth it. Jason wouldn''t sell to them anyway. He wasn''t short on resources or Escape Coins. Besides, planting pots weren''t easy to come by. As long as Jason didn''t flood the market, getting their hands on one wouldn''t be so easy for them. After some haggling, Jason managed to trade for two tomato seeds, two eggplant seeds, and one chili seed. Of course, Jason gave them twice the number of planting pots as seeds. After planting the five seeds, Jason continued scrolling through the chat channel for more trades. Most of the trades were for ordinary supplies; very few people were selling equipment or items. But then Jason spotted someone selling equipment. Robes: 1-Star equipment that boosts Spirit when worn. The asking price was 288 Escape Coins. It seemed to be priced similarly to the 1-Star Boots, which was why no one had bought it yet. A 1-Star Spirit-boosting item was useless to Jason. Even Chloe and Joyce, who relied on their Spirit, wouldn''t benefit from it. Their Spirit had already reached D-Rank; a 1-Star robe wouldn''t improve it. Still, Jason bought the robe. It was a 1-Star item, after all. With the robe in hand, Jason went back to scouring the chat channel for other deals. *Ding!* The world auction channel is open. A system notification rang in everyone''s mind. Jason perked up, thinking "Finally, the world auction channel is here!" He''d saved up over 26,000 Escape Coins, enough to buy a lot of stuff from the auction. Jason opened the world auction channel and found that the first item was already up for bid. Longsword: 2-Star equipment. Starting bid: 1,000 Escape Coins. Minimum increment: 100 Escape Coins. Jason glanced at the bid amount below the longsword. It was already at 1,200 Escape Coins. The auction only showed the bid price, not the bidder''s identity, so people didn''t have to worry about being exposed. Jason put in a bid of 2,000 Escape Coins right away. After a while, the price quickly jumped to 2,500 Escape Coins. Jason wasn''t the only one who knew how to earn Escape Coins. Other people from other regions had also managed to accumulate a fortune and didn''t mind competing with him. Jason wasn''t surprised and upped his bid to 3,000 Escape Coins. Three thousand Escape Coins weren''t a big deal for Jason, but they made many people hesitate about bidding any higher. After a moment, someone raised the price to 3,500 Escape Coins. Jason immediately bid 3,600 Escape Coins. But it quickly rose to 4,000 Escape Coins, stunning everyone following the auction. Especially those struggling for survival on the bus. They felt the same way Jason had felt towards David in his past life C a sense of helplessness in the face of someone far stronger. Someone was willing to spend thousands of Escape Coins on a single weapon, while they were worried about scraping together a few Escape Coins to buy food. In just a few short days, they''d already diverged into different social strata. Countless people on the bus regretted boarding the bus and missing the chance to become RV owners when they first arrived in Escape World. Even Jason was taken aback by the 4,000 Escape Coin bid. In his previous life, this longsword had been sold for 3,000 Escape Coins. Now it had jumped to 4,000. But Jason really needed weapons. Neither he nor his Shadow Doppelganger, or even Chloe, had decent weapons. The only one worth mentioning was the 1-Star Spear. So Jason had to get his hands on this 2-Star Longsword. At that moment, Chloe and the other girls finished cleaning up the kitchen and came out. Ellie hopped over to Jason. "Jason, was that you who bid 4,000 Escape Coins on the auction channel?" "No, but I''m going to win that longsword." Jason chuckled, knowing that he has over 20,000 Escape Coins, and he wasn''t afraid of not being able to win it. Jason pulled Ellie into his arms, wanting her to see how he was going to bid on the longsword. The other girls were curious and crowded around, wanting to watch Jason''s bidding war. Jason was immediately surrounded by the girls on the couch, a sight any man would envy. Jason sat on the couch and first bid 4,100 Escape Coins, and tried if someone would want to continue bidding. 91 - Auction Frenzy Jason bid 4100 Escape Coins, trying to gauge if anyone would continue bidding on the longsword. After all, that price was already high, completely exceeding what a 2-Rank equipment should cost. Even if someone could afford it, there was no need to buy a longsword at such a high price. But soon, the bid under the 2-Rank longsword changed to 4500 Escape Coins. Someone really was bidding again. Jason frowned. He could tell that the bidder was determined to get the 2-Rank longsword. Ellie, sitting in Jason''s lap, asked in surprise, "Jason, do you think the bidder is making a lot of Escape Coins like we are, with an ability similar to blueprint acquisition?" They knew that Jason had been making a lot of Escape Coins these past few days with his blueprint acquisition ability. Jason could afford to buy a 2-Rank longsword at a high price because he had a lot of Escape Coins and didn''t care about the expense. What made the other person so confident in bidding? Even they could see that it wasn''t cost-effective to buy a 2-Rank equipment at such a high price. Could the bidder also have a similar blueprint acquisition ability, not caring about buying an equipment at a high price? The girls gathered around Jason, chattering amongst themselves. Some were worried that it wasn''t cost-effective for Jason to buy an equipment at a high price, while others were angry that the bidder was maliciously inflating the price, causing Jason to spend more Escape Coins. Even Chloe and Kira became very serious. They could see from the world auction channel that there were quite a few people with power and resources around the world. In the future, Jason would definitely have no shortage of enemies and competitors. This made them feel a sense of urgency, wanting to become stronger as soon as possible to help Jason. Jason smiled helplessly and explained to the girls, "There are so many people in the world. Even though I have the ability to acquire blueprints, other RV owners also have the ability to earn wealth." Not to mention Sonny, who was making a killing just by selling information. In the future, many people would buy information from him at high prices. And Joyce''s honey for treating injuries could also earn a lot of Escape Coins. Others had things like luck bonuses, doubled resources, increased production in planting and breeding, making medicines, weapons, and so on C all ways to earn a lot of Escape Coins. The girls nodded understandingly, each feeling a sense of gravity and worry. There were so many powerful and capable teams around the world, and they were all thinking about how they could help Jason and the entire team. Jason also noticed the sense of crisis in the girls'' hearts but didn''t say anything. Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator. If the team didn''t have a sense of crisis, it would become lazy and lack a competitive spirit. Both the environment in the RV and Jason''s strength gave the girls a strong sense of security. But they had gradually lost the crisis and competition that came with survival. So Jason wanted to guide the girls to grow, so that they would become his help in the future, instead of letting them enjoy the comforts in the RV. Jason looked at the system, setting a price of 6000 Escape Coins for the longsword in his mind. Once it exceeded that price, he wouldn''t continue bidding. Jason wasn''t stupid. No matter how many Escape Coins he had, he couldn''t waste them like that. So Jason bid 5000 Escape Coins. It was quickly raised to 5500 Escape Coins. Jason''s eyes narrowed, and without hesitation, he immediately raised the price to his final limit: 6000 Escape Coins. But a moment later, the price was raised to 7000 Escape Coins. Jason couldn''t help but smile dryly and didn''t continue bidding. It was just a 2-Rank equipment. He could do without it. 7000 Escape Coins for a 2-Rank equipment? He wondered what kind of sucker bid that price. Since Jason didn''t continue bidding, the longsword was eventually sold for 7000 Escape Coins. ... Inside a tank. Looking at the 2-Rank longsword in his hand and the 7000 fewer Escape Coins, Luck couldn''t help but gasp. Damn it, he got carried away with the bidding... "Big bro, isn''t 7000 Escape Coins too expensive for a longsword?" A henchman in the RV asked. Luck, a middle-aged gangster in his forties, rolled his eyes in annoyance when he heard his henchman''s question: "What do you know? Once I have this longsword, I can copy countless more. I can earn back the 7,000 Escape Coins in no time, and I''ll even give you each one." The several henchmen in the RV were ecstatic when they heard this. Having a 2-Rank longsword in their hands would give them face. So they all expressed their willingness to shed blood and sweat for Luck. Luck sighed inwardly. He bid on the longsword because he had the ability to copy weapons. But no matter how many 2-Rank longswords he copied, no one would be able to afford them in the short term. He had finally managed to earn some Escape Coins these past few days, only to lose them all on a longsword. Luck was full of regret, feeling like he had lost everything. ... With the 2-Rank longsword sold, the world auction channel continued to auction off the next item. Shield: 2-Rank equipment. Starting price: 1000 Escape Coins, with a minimum bid increase of 100 Escape Coins. It was a defensive equipment, and many people with resources around the world participated in the bidding. For everyone, a shield was more valuable than the previous longsword. If someone on the team was holding a shield in the front, the team battle effect would be stronger than a longsword. The price of the shield was quickly raised to 3000 Escape Coins. But Jason bid 5000 Escape Coins directly, making everyone afraid to continue bidding. The price of a 2-Rank equipment was only around two or three thousand, and no one dared to raise the price any further. After all, there had already been a precedent of someone buying a longsword at a high price, and no one wanted to waste money. The shield was soon auctioned off to Jason for 5000 Escape Coins. *Bang*A rectangular shield appeared in front of Jason, hitting the ground with a dull thud, and Jason also lost 5000 Escape Coins. The girls curiously picked up the shield to examine it. Jason wasn''t in a hurry to distribute the equipment and continued to bid on the next auction item. The third auction item was a 2-Rank spear. Also with a starting price of 1000 Escape Coins, with a minimum bid of 100 Escape Coins. This kind of long weapon had a great advantage in killing monsters, and many people immediately participated in the bidding. This time, before Jason could bid, someone raised the price to 5000 Escape Coins first. Clearly, someone wanted to learn from Jason and take the spear with a price of 5000 Escape Coins. As expected, no one continued to bid. Everyone had a scale in their hearts. 5000 Escape Coins was already considered a high price, and basically no one would buy it. Jason naturally wouldn''t give up bidding for the spear, raising the price to 6000 Escape Coins. Like the 2-Rank longsword, 6000 Escape Coins was the highest price Jason would pay. If someone continued to bid, Jason would naturally give up. But the price of 6000 Escape Coins was indeed too much for others, and no one was hot-headed like Luck to continue bidding. So the 2-Rank spear was also auctioned off to Jason. Now Jason had 15,000 Escape Coins left. The world auction channel continued to the next auction item. Flintlock Pistol: 2-Rank equipment, 6 rounds capacity, recovers one bullet every ten seconds. 92 - Star Power A Flintlock Pistol!? Everyone was glued to the World Auction Channel. When the next item up for bid turned out to be a pistol, they were shocked. Some folks were so hyped, they were itching to snag that piece right then and there. Everyone knew what a leveler a gun could be. In this dog-eat-dog world, who wouldn''t want a piece to defend themselves? And this wasn''t just any pistol it had unlimited ammo! Okay, so it was a flintlock, with only six shots, and it took ten seconds to reload one. But still, whether for yourself or the team, having someone with a gun like that could seriously boost your firepower. Some were already daydreaming about how much safer and deadlier they''d be with a pistol. Goblins, beasts, you name it, one shot and they''re down. So, car owners with Escape Coins started throwing bids left and right, ready to win that gun. Jason was also gearing up to bid on that flintlock. He knew that in his past life, David snagged that gun and it became one of his main weapons. Don''t let the two-star rating fool you. David powered it up to a four-star with monster essences. One shot from that thing was like a cannonball. A bullet could crater the ground. Anyone below B-Rank wouldn''t even think about tanking that shot. Now, leveling up weapons was a pain. You needed monster essences. You only got those if you killed a C-Rank or higher monster guarding a treasure chest, and even then, it was only a chance. Monster essences were good for a lot of things, including leveling up gear. Once you had enough, you had to find a pursuer with enchanting skills and pay them some Escape Coins for a ''chance'' to upgrade a two-star item. David managed to get that pistol to four-stars, so that meant it had potential. It could at least reach four-stars again. That''s why Jason had to win that gun. Ellie was sitting in Jason''s lap. When she saw the pistol, she glanced at him, her big blue eyes blinking. "What''s up? You want this pistol?" Jason asked, noticing her look. Ellie quickly shook her head, "Nah not really. My crossbow works just fine." Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon. Of course she wanted that pistol. But she didn''t want Jason spending too many Escape Coins on her. Jason didn''t push it. He wasn''t much of a marksman anyway. He was going to win it for Ellie. He pictured Ellie blasting monsters with that flintlock, and it sounded pretty good. Jason checked the World Auction Channel. The flintlock was already up to 5400 Escape Coins. Once it hit five grand, most of the competition was priced out. But Jason wasn''t jumping in yet. He remembered David winning it for over seven grand. So, five or six thousand wasn''t going to cut it. Sure enough, the price jumped to 6300 Escape Coins. But it kept climbing. Sounded like a few players were still in the game. Soon, it hit a high of 7000 Escape Coins. Ellie pouted, "It''s just a pistol. Is it worth that many Escape Coins?" That was way too high, she thought. Even if Jason was doing it for her, she''d tell him to stop. Her crossbow was just as good, no need to overpay. But then she saw Jason tapping his system to place a bid. "Wait! Hold on" Ellie tried to stop him, but it was too late. Jason had bid 8000 Escape Coins. The price surge brought the auction to a standstill. That was more than anyone expected. How many people in the world could save up eight thousand Escape Coins in just a few days? And who was crazy enough to drop that kind of cash on one piece of gear? Eight thousand could buy tons of supplies and gear. No pistol was worth that. But Jason knew that this one could reach four-stars, so he was ready to pay. Just when Jason thought he had it locked down, someone bumped it up to 8100 Escape Coins. Jason frowned. This guy was testing him, seeing where his limit was. If Jason only went up a hundred or two, that meant he was tapped out. So, he had to go high to scare him off. Jason bid 8500 Escape Coins, showing he was serious about winning. Ellie was speechless, her eyes glued to the World Auction Channel. The other girls in the RV exchanged glances, but no one said anything. Whatever Jason did, they were behind him. The price jumped again, 8600 Escape Coins. Jason didn''t hesitate. 9000 Escape Coins. With his blueprint-collecting ability, making Escape Coins was easy. Nine grand was nothing. Once the chat channel got more people, and everyone got stronger, spending would go up too. He could make tens of thousands of Escape Coins a day. And Escape Coins were only good if you spent them. What was the point of hoarding them and letting them lose value? Jason was betting no one could outbid him now. He was right. Once it hit 9000 Escape Coins, no one dared to bid again. The flintlock was his. The high price was partly due to Jason''s earlier bidding on other items. He had set the bar at six or seven grand for two-star gear. He basically inflated the market. That was why David had won his flintlock for a little over seven thousand back in the day, while Jason just dropped nine. Of course, Jason was way stronger than David was at this point in his past life. David only had about ten thousand Escape Coins saved up, and just that one pistol. And he only had three or four women in his RV. His favor Points and strength were nowhere near Jason''s. Rebirth gave Jason a head start. That was how he got so far, so fast. Back in reality, Jason won the flintlock, leaving him with just over 6000 Escape Coins. Enough for one more two-star item. Jason looked at the flintlock in his hand. It was just like he remembered. He handed it to Ellie, "Go fire a couple of shots out the window, just be careful not to point it at anyone inside." Ellie took the flintlock and kissed Jason hard on the cheek. She had seen him spend nine thousand Escape Coins on her. She was seriously touched. "Got it, Jason. I''ll use this gun to wipe out all your enemies," Ellie promised. Then, Ellie, Lily, Jenna, and ?Joy all gathered around the window, chattering excitedly and trying out the pistol. Jason went back to the auction channel, ready to spend his last six grand. 93 - Loot Bonanza Bang! A gunshot echoed. Ellie held the flintlock pistol, a flash of fire erupting from the barrel as it recoiled powerfully. A bullet sped into the night outside. "Wow!" The girls surrounding Ellie gasped, witnessing a real firearm discharge for the first time. Ellie, however, was surprised by the pistol''s kick. She almost lost her grip on the flintlock. A strong wind rushed in through the window, carrying the faint scent of gunpowder, a testament to the flintlock''s power. This particular flintlock was unlike regular ones. It didn''t require tedious reloading. It seemed to have a pocket dimension inside, automatically generating and storing ammunition. Bang! Bang! Ellie repeatedly pulled the trigger, bullets flying into the darkness. Each shot produced a strong recoil. Without her E-Rank strength, Ellie wouldn''t have been able to hold it. ClickEllie pulled the trigger again, but no bullet fired. "Out of ammo" Ellie realized. She had to wait ten seconds for a new bullet to be produced. Six bullets meant waiting a full minute. Lily chimed in, "Ellie, can I try a couple of shots?" "Sure." Ellie nodded, carefully handing the flintlock to Lily. "Lily, the recoil''s strong, be careful to hold on tight, and don''t let it go off accidentally." Jason had already warned the girls. It was okay to play with the flintlock, but they had to be extra careful to prevent any accidental firings. They had all heard Jason''s warning and wouldn''t point the gun recklessly. They would only shoot out the window. And so, the girls huddled around the window, chattering excitedly as they took turns firing. Since they didn''t have to worry about ammo consumption, taking a few shots each was no big deal. Meanwhile, Jason sat on the sofa, browsing the World Auction Channel. He only had a little over six thousand Escape Coins left, enough to bid on one more weapon at most. Ten weapons would be auctioned in total this time, and Jason, with the Escape Coins he had, definitely wanted to snag another one. After all, it was now or never. The World Auction Channel didn''t open daily, but once after experiencing a world. The next opening wouldn''t be until they went to the Scorching World. Therefore, Jason couldn''t miss this rare opportunity to buy a 2-Star weapon. Currently, Jason''s ranged weapons included a 1-Star hand crossbow, a 2-Star flintlock pistol, and two polearms, one 1-Star and one 2-Star, plus a 2-Star shield. The fifth item for auction was a longbow, but Jason didn''t participate. If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. He already had a hand crossbow and a pistol, so he didn''t need a longbow as a ranged weapon. But what he didn''t need, others might. The longbow was a popular ranged weapon, and many people bid high, with someone ultimately taking it for over seven thousand Escape Coins. The next few items were an axe, a staff, and a hammer, all sold for over five thousand Escape Coins. Jason didn''t bid on these either. Because these were all polearms, Jason didn''t participate in the auction. Jason already had two spears, so he didn''t need any more polearms. Instead, he needed to get a short-handled weapon. Long-handled weapons would be restricted in terrains like caves and dense forests. Jason wanted to remedy that shortcoming. When the ninth item, a short-handled long sword, came up for auction, Jason finally made a bid. After a round of bidding, Jason successfully purchased the short-handled long sword for 5500 Escape Coins. The final item was a dagger. Jason didn''t watch any longer, closing the system interface. "Hubby, aren''t you going to watch the auction anymore?" Chloe asked curiously, sitting beside him. Jason was in a good mood, having bought four of the ten weapons in the auction, so he explained with a smile, "I''ve run out of Escape Coins. No need to keep watching." Tiffany, who was sitting beside him, felt a bit guilty. "Hubby, it''s my fault I didn''t earn many Escape Coins today." In the previous days, Jason could earn ten thousand Escape Coins a day. But today, she only earned a little over six thousand Escape Coins, far less than the previous three days'' earnings. If she had earned more Escape Coins today, perhaps Jason could have bought another weapon. Jason saw her guilt and comforted her with a smile, "Tiffany, this has nothing to do with you. The main reason is that the Pursuer wiped out a lot of teams today, so there are naturally fewer buyers than before." Currently, out of the five thousand people in the chat channel, over two thousand were on the bus, and they didn''t have many resources. The remaining two thousand or so people were actually teams led by four or five hundred RV owners, so their spending power was naturally not as good as before. Tiffany was deeply touched by Jason''s words. In her opinion, Jason was completely comforting her so she wouldn''t feel guilty. Tiffany had originally thought that after getting on the RV, she would become Jason''s pampered pet, but she didn''t expect Jason to directly entrust her with the important task of earning Escape Coins. True sincerity for true sincerity, she had already made up her mind to help Jason earn even more Escape Coins. Jason naturally didn''t know Tiffany''s thoughts. In fact, Jason was still somewhat wary of Tiffany. For example, Tiffany hadn''t absorbed any Attribute Orbs, and her stats were no different from those of an ordinary person. She was different from Lily and Joy, and Jason couldn''t be sure of her loyalty. As for entrusting her with the task of earning Escape Coins, Jason wasn''t worried. The Escape Coins she earned from selling items would be transferred to him immediately, so there wouldn''t be a situation where she kept them for herself. Moreover, after tonight, Jason would collect Favor Points and naturally be able to discern her true intentions. Jason reviewed today''s gains. In terms of weapons, Kira had obtained a 1-Star spear in the Chests mechanism, followed by a 2-Star shield, a 2-Star spear, a 2-Star flintlock pistol, and a 2-Star short-handled long sword purchased at auction. In terms of items, the biggest gain was the Blueprints for the Simmons Double Bed, followed by banana peels, a vehicle repair tool kit, fertilizer, and bandages. There was also a 1-Star robe bought from the chat channel. Jason decided to give this robe to Tiffany after confirming her loyalty tonight. After all, the workload of trading goods was huge, and this robe would be of great help to her. After reviewing the gains, Jason gathered the girls, prepared to rest, and arranged for them to take turns guarding the RV at night. Nighttime monster attacks couldn''t be taken lightly. Jason didn''t want to screw up on such a trivial matter. When it came time to rest for the night, the girls'' expressions varied. Tiffany was nervous, Chloe and Ellie were excited, ?Joy was curious, Lily was worried, and Kira and Jenna were smiling without a word. No need to elaborate on these. With the addition of Lily and her two comrades, the pressure of night watch wasn''t great at all. Moreover, the Simmons Double Bed could restore their fatigue and drowsiness, and Jason could even collect more Favor Points. After allocating the night watch duties, they took showers, rested, and the night passed without incident. 94 - Gale Force Winds Deep into the night, inside the RV. The nighttime temperature was frigid, coupled with relentless winds whipping outside, the RV became freezing cold. Chloe shivered, quickly wrapping herself in a thick blanket for warmth. It was her shift to keep watch, and the chill kept her alert. Outside, the wind howled. Chloe checked the surroundings, relieved not to spot any monsters. Keeping watch was boring, but she could kill time checking the Group Chat App. Others on watch in other teams were also killing time in the Group Chat App, chatting, sharing jokes. It was kind of fun. Of course, some shared stories of monster attacks. That kept everyone on edge. Chloe was careful. The RV had an alarm, but it wouldn''t go off until the monster already attacked. By then, the monster would''ve broken in through the window. So guarding duty was crucial. If monsters did attack, Chloe would spot them early and wake Jason. That''s what Jason assigned them to do. Time trickled by... Chloe checked the time. She''d been on watch for over an hour. Time to wake the next person. Just as she was about to get up, she saw several small figures approaching through the Wasteland. In the middle of the night, those couldn''t be human. Monster attack! "It''s actually happening..." Chloe muttered. Not worried, but a little excited. She was on watch for monster attacks. If nothing happened, she would be upset. Now the monsters appeared. Chloe confirmed that they were not seeing things, and went to wake Jason. "Hubby, monster attack." Chloe shook Jason awake. This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report. Jason woke immediately. "What kind of monsters?" Jason asked, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. Being awakened from the monster attack didn''t bother him too much, as he got use to it in his old life. He actually got more cautious if the monsters did not attack. Chloe thought for a moment. "Goblins, I''m pretty sure... seven or eight of them." Jason nodded, summoning his Shadow Doppelganger to deal with the attack. Unless they ran into a C-Rank monster, the Shadow Doppelganger will not lose. Plus, he''d collected 85 Favor Points from the girls tonight. Adding to his existing 25, he had 110 Favor Points. Jason was a little surprised. Tiffany have the most Favor Points with 5 Points, ?Joy with 4, and Lily the least amount of Favor Points with 3 Points. Jason can confirmed that they all didn''t have other motives, and can feel relieved. With so many Favor Points, Jason would naturally upgrade his attributes. First, he upgraded Strength and Spirit, using four D-Rank Attribute Orbs on each to go from D-Rank to D+ Rank. Then he used two D-Rank Attribute Orbs to upgrade Physique from D- to D. A total of 100 Favor Points. Now Jason had 10 Favor Points left, but his stats were insane. Name: Jason Strength: D+ Rank Speed: D+ Rank Physique: D Rank Spirit: D+ Rank Skill: Shadow Doppelganger Escape Coins: 1062 Overall rating: D-Rank Aside from Physique, all other stats are at D+ Rank. Of course, Jason also had a two-star black hoodie that would boost Physique to D+ Rank. Based on tonight''s Favor Points gains, Jason figured he could not only max out Physique before they reached the superheated zone, but also save up 100 Favor Points to get a C-Rank Attribute Orb and break through to C-Rank. The Feminism and pursuers were nothing in front of him at that point. The Shadow Doppelganger appeared, wielding the two-star short-handled long sword and exited the RV to butcher the attacking monsters. Chloe curiously walked to the window. She woke up most of the women in the RV with her awakening of Jason. Jason quickly reassured ?Joy and the other awakened girls. He told them to just go back to sleep. Jason caressed ?Joy, and used his Shadow Doppelganger to fight at the same time. Slowly getting use to multitasking. Two or three minutes later, the Shadow Doppelganger returned to the RV. If not for some of the goblins running for their lives, he could''ve taken care of everything within a minute. Chloe punched the air excitedly. She''d seen the Shadow Doppelganger''s goblin massacre clearly. She was safe with Jason''s strength. She was in tears due to getting hunted by goblins at the start of this Escape World. Now the sight of Shadow Doppelganger butchering goblins planted a seed of self-improvement in Chloe. The monster attack was over, but that didn''t mean it was the only attack tonight. So Chloe woke Kira and took off her shift, before diving into the blankets with Jason. Chloe''s shift was one piece of all of the Women rotation, nothing big to talk about. The night passed quickly. Dawn approached. The wind outside was even stronger, threatening to overturn the RV. Jason and the women were being woken up by the wind outside. The Simmons Double Bed''s effect was potent. Jason and the women didn''t feel sleepy or tired. Especially the women. All of their stats were all quite low, especially their Physique. The girls feel exhausted every night. Now they looked like they''re not. *Ding, Gale Force Winds Have Descended. All Vehicles Must Be Moving At All Times For The Next 3 Days. Important Note: Vehicle will be flung into the Tornadoes once it hits the standstill mark of over a minute! Wind Force Boost to 9/Severe Gale!* 95 - intelligence in bee Out on the Wasteland, the wind howled, whipping up yellow sand that filled the sky. The powerful gusts robbed anyone of the ability to move, forcing them to huddle in their vehicles and wait it out. As the system notification sounded, Jason steered the RV down the highway. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh C hundreds of yards behind the RV, a tornado that pierced the sky was gradually taking shape. Ellie, Lily, and Sophie were pressed against the windows, and they jumped when they saw it. Oh my god, there really is a tornado! Ellie exclaimed. They''d just heard the system warning: stopping for more than a minute would cause the tornado to lift them up, so theyd peered curiously outside. Seeing the tornado looming, reaching for the sky, they were fully convinced the system warning was legit. As the RV drove away, the forming tornado slowly moved as well, almost as if it was chasing them. Its actually following us! The three girls cried out in unison. The sight of the roaring wind and the spectacular tornado outside the window made them pale. Their slight frames wouldnt stand a chance against that kind of wind. Lily, thinking quickly, said, Ellie, Sophie, quick, lets check all the windows are sealed tight! Ellie and Sophie snapped to attention, and the three quickly checked every window, terrified that one might be open, letting the tornado snatch them away. It seemed that was the only thing they could do in the face of the pursuing tornado. Nearby, Kira and Tiffany saw this and couldnt help but smile. The three girls anxious fear was amusing to them. With these three sisters around, life on the RV would definitely be interesting, never boring. However, the two womens expressions turned grim as they gazed at the tornado a few hundred yards back. Of course, it wasnt just Jasons RV that had a tornado on its tail, but other teams'' vehicles as well. The tornado was like a sword of Damocles hanging over everyones head, ready to whisk away vehicles and extinguish the lives of all within. As the teams drove onward, everyone pondered the system announcement. The gist of it was, for the next three days, day and night, they had to keep moving. Combined with the tornado looming behind, everyone understood that if they stopped for more than a minute, the vehicle would be swept up into the sky, leading to wreckage and death. So for every team, the challenge ahead was three days of non-stop driving. If a team had too few members, these three days would be incredibly grueling. A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. But for a team of four or five, taking turns driving, it shouldnt be too hard to endure. Jason didnt need to worry about this at all. He had a full eight people in his RV, plenty to rotate, making it easy peasy. Though only Jason, Chloe, and Kira could drive at the moment. But Ellie and the other girls could all learn to drive; they didnt need to be skilled drivers, just capable of keeping the vehicle moving steadily. And since the highway was free of obstacles, without even a curve, all they needed to do was keep a steady hand on the steering wheel and tap the accelerator. There was no real difficulty to it. A good thing was that these three days wouldnt consume gas, and theyd even get gas rewards daily. Once the three days were over and they headed to the scorching hot world to search for chests, they wouldnt have to worry about running out of gas. Inside the drivers compartment, Jason gradually increased his speed, glancing in the rearview mirror to ensure the tornado wouldnt catch up. While stopping for a minute meant being swept away, driving too slow would allow the tornado to overtake them as well. Jason naturally wouldnt drive too slowly; he had no desire to be lifted into the sky. Chloe, in the passenger seat, watching the howling wind outside, asked, Hubby, with such high winds, do you think well encounter any chests? Even if we do find a chest, we won''t have time to stop and brave the tornado to open it, Jason explained helplessly. It was like a pursuer mode; the vehicles were moving at no cost of gas, meaning no chests would appear. Not to mention, even if there were chests in this environment, who would dare to stop and look for them, risking being swept away by the tornado? So these three days would offer no resource income besides system trades. Of course, all the teams had stored up plenty of food, so there was no need to worry about starvation. And Jason''s RV was even more well-stocked with supplies. What we need to consider is that we cant stop to rest for the next three days. Well need to rotate driving. Chloe, go get Ellie and Lily to come learn to drive. Jason decided that for the next three days, he and Chloe, Ellie, and the other fighters would take turns driving. Rotating between five people, getting through three days of driving should be no problem. "Okay." Chloe nodded. Naturally, she wouldn''t object to Jason''s decision. So she left the driver''s compartment to get Ellie and Lily. A moment later, Ellie and Lily walked into the drivers compartment with two pieces of bread: Jason, my brother, this is breakfast that my older sister just made." Jason took the bread Ellie offered. The bread had slices of meat, ham, and fried eggs inside, convenient for him to eat while driving. "Ellie, Lily, for the next three days we''ll need to take turns driving, so you have to learn to drive as soon as possible." The two girls nodded quickly, indicating they understood. So Jason devoured the bread in a few bites and began teaching the two girls to drive. Somewhere on the highway, a small car was swaying from side to side, like a beginner was driving. "Big Bumble, hold the steering wheel steady for me... you''re making me carsick!" Joyce stood next to the driver''s seat, reaching out to tap the mutated queen bee sitting in the driver''s seat twice. That''s right, sitting in the driver''s seat was the mutated queen bee, with its four insect legs gripping the steering wheel, looking quite comical. It turned out the small car was swaying erratically because the mutated queen bee was driving. After being tapped by Joyce, the mutated queen bee used mental communication to retort with dissatisfaction. "Oh, you dare talk back to me?" Joyce reached out again and tapped the mutated queen bee''s insect head. Now that the wind disaster had arrived, Joyce''s situation was a bit dire, she definitely couldn''t get through three days of driving alone. But since Joyce had made it through these three days in the past, she naturally could make it through this time too. Jason guessed that in the past, Joyce had relied on the mutated queen bee, taking turns driving to get through this crisis. Therefore, after being reminded by Jason, Joyce had already started teaching the mutated queen bee to drive, and even, fearing that the mutated queen bee wouldn''t understand, Joyce tried to continue feeding the mutated queen bee with zombie Crystals. After being continuously fed with zombie Crystals, the mutated queen bee''s intelligence clearly increased again, which made Joyce ecstatic. With the increase in intelligence, the mutated queen bee naturally gradually learned to drive. If Jason knew about the mutated queen bee''s situation, he would find that the mutated queen bee''s intelligence was the same as those monsters guarding the chests. 96 - Skills Unleashed On a certain bus... Mark, who was once beaten and humiliated by Jason pretending to be David, still held a grudge against David. Now, he was trying to brainwash everyone on the bus. "Guys, you''ve all seen the car owners'' situation in the Group Chat App." "They had two thousand followers killed by the pursuer mode yesterday, and that Chests mechanism is just using our lives to help car owners compete for chests. To those car owners, even if their followers die, they can just recruit new ones from the bus. They don''t care at all." "Do you really think becoming a follower under a car owner will end well? It''s much safer for us to stay on the bus..." "I believe as long as we stick together, we can overcome any difficulty in the future." After Mark finished speaking, he immediately gained support and agreement from many people on the bus. Unlike other buses where people were divided into small groups fighting over resources, Mark had already taken control of this bus. Under Mark''s leadership these past few days, the twenty-plus people on the bus worked together to secure chests and even hunted several gray wolves to alleviate the food shortage. Now, the bus had seven Wooden Spears, making it a formidable force capable of taking down Bronze Chests guarded by two or three Goblins. But since some car owners came to the bus to recruit people yesterday, many people on the bus became restless. Mark noticed this and started brainwashing everyone to strengthen his control. Actually, car owners had tried to recruit Mark yesterday, but he rejected them all. Mark knew very well that his advantage was his leadership ability. Leaving the bus to work under other car owners would render him useless, and he would end up as expendable cannon fodder. As the saying goes, better to be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a big pond. He felt safer and more at ease staying on the bus. Moreover, he could use the bus to gather resources and increase his strength. Mark always remembered the scene where David humiliated him a few days ago, which made him understand the importance of strength. In this Escape World, one''s own strength is the key to survival. "Mark, good news..." Someone came to Mark''s ear and whispered something. Mark''s eyes lit up, and he excitedly said to everyone with a smile, "Hahaha, everyone, quickly check the Group Chat App, there''s good news." Everyone on the bus was stunned, wondering what could have made Mark so happy. But they still opened the system to check the Group Chat App. Soon, the messages being discussed in the Group Chat App caught everyone''s attention. It turned out that chests were landing on some buses, and some people found token-like items inside the chests. The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. "That''s great! Chests are actually appearing. Does that mean we don''t have to get off the bus to fight for chests?" someone exclaimed excitedly. "Dumbass, it''s so windy outside, how are you going to get off the bus to fight for chests?" "True, I wonder when a chest will land on our bus." Everyone on the bus was talking, expressing their own opinions. Unlike others, Mark was focused on the fact that someone in the Group Chat App was buying tokens with Attribute Orbs! Attribute Orbs that could increase strength! Although he didn''t know what the token was, the fact that it could be exchanged for Attribute Orbs meant it was definitely valuable. Mark''s eyes couldn''t help but shine, wishing a chest would quickly land on his bus. As if his wish was heard, a white light suddenly appeared on the bus, attracting everyone''s attention. "A chest has landed!" someone exclaimed after seeing the phenomenon. Soon, the white light dissipated, and a silver-white chest appeared in front of everyone. "This... this is a Silver Chest!?" someone couldn''t help but exclaim. Everyone present understood what a Silver Chest represented, and their eyes widened with excitement as they stood up. At that moment, many people on the bus couldn''t help but step forward, wanting to open the chest. Mark reacted quickly. He immediately woke up from his shock and saw that everyone was about to snatch the Silver Chest. He immediately yelled. "What are you doing!? This chest belongs to everyone. I dare anyone to take it for themselves." Mark''s prestige, cultivated over the past few days, was still effective. Everyone who was scolded by him immediately stopped and laughed awkwardly. At this time, whoever dared to open the Silver Chest would definitely become everyone''s target, and it could even cause a major fight on the bus. Mark waved his hand in a deliberately calm manner, driving away the few people who were approaching the chest. Everyone understood Mark''s meaning. The chest would definitely be opened by Mark, so as to ensure that its resources were distributed equally. Mark didn''t waste any time and immediately opened the chest. Inside the chest were a small pile of Escape Coins and a token. Mark curiously picked up the token to examine it. Personal Dungeon Token (Cooking): After using the token, you will be teleported to the Dungeon world to learn cooking. Dungeon token? Learn cooking? A hint of disappointment flashed in Mark''s eyes. He thought the token would be some powerful item. It turned out to be just a Dungeon token for learning cooking. But Mark quickly thought of someone in the Group Chat App buying tokens with Attribute Orbs. Mark felt a surge of excitement, but he still pretended to be calm and reached into the chest. He quietly pocketed the small pile of Escape Coins into his system, and then picked up the token to show it to everyone. "Guys, there''s only this one token in the chest." As Mark took away the items from the Silver Chest, the chest disappeared into thin air in everyone''s eyes, making everyone understand that there was only one token in the chest. Mark held the token up to show everyone. "Check out the stats of this token. It can only improve someone''s cooking skills. It''s useless. Why don''t we sell it and get some resources?" After seeing the token''s stats, everyone on the bus was disappointed. No one objected to Mark using the token to exchange for resources. On the other side. The person who was buying tokens with Attribute Orbs in the Group Chat App was naturally Jason. After all, besides him, no one else would take out extra Attribute Orbs to do such a thing. Jason naturally knew that chests were landing on buses. Escape World was still fair in this regard. During these three days of the wind disaster, the teams led by car owners did not have chests land, but they would still receive gasoline rewards every day. After surviving the three-day wind disaster, they would naturally collect the chest resources from these three days when they went to the next world. And the buses would have chests constantly landing during these three days. The chests not only contained food and water to ensure survival during these three days, but also contained Dungeon tokens of various skills. There were many types of skills for these Dungeon tokens, such as cooking, planting, animal husbandry, medical care, driving, combat skills, and so on. Those who learned from the Dungeon tokens naturally became talents in the eyes of the car owners. Three days later, when they went to the extremely hot world, car owners would naturally compete to recruit talents who had learned from the Dungeon tokens. In his previous life, Jason obtained a token for gun skills at this time, and then he had the capital to barely survive. Even now, the skills that Jason taught Chloe and Kira to use Wooden Spears came from the gun skills he learned from that Dungeon token. This was also why Chloe mistakenly thought that Jason knew martial arts when she first saw him using a Wooden Spear to blind a Goblin''s eyes on the first day of Escape World. 97 - Token Exchange As news of the Skills Dungeon Tokens spread, everyone''s attention turned to the buses. After all, getting a token wasn''t easy. Each bus only had one token, and it was normal for people on many buses to fight tooth and nail for them. Most people who managed to grab a token, fearing it would be stolen, would use it immediately to teleport to the Dungeon. Few, like Mark, managed to hold onto their tokens and planned to sell them. Those who obtained tokens but didn''t use them were either leaders of their buses like Mark or had beaten everyone else into submission with their strength. In their eyes, the skill in the token wasn''t that useful, and it was better to sell it for resources and equipment to improve their strength. Meanwhile, Jason left the driver''s seat and handed the RV over to Ellie and Lily to drive. Only by driving themselves could they learn how to drive quickly. However, worried about accidents, Jason also had Kira watch over them and provide guidance. Then Jason turned his attention to the Group Chat App. Jason and Chloe sat on the sofa with the girls and looked at Tiffany, asking, "Tiffany, have you posted the message about buying tokens?" Tiffany nodded. As Jason had instructed, she immediately announced that they were buying tokens with Attribute Orbs. "Hubby, I''ve already posted the message. Currently, there are two people who want to trade tokens for Attribute Orbs. However, they think three Attribute Orbs are too few and want to exchange for six." Six? Jason frowned slightly, curious, "What skills are in their tokens?" In Jason''s view, skills also had levels. Trading for six Attribute Orbs was fine, but the skill in the token had to at least satisfy him. Tiffany glanced at the system and said, "One person''s token is for cooking, and the other''s is for... singing." Uh... Jason was speechless. There was even a singing skill? However, Jason also knew that the skills learned from the tokens were not ordinary. For example, a cooking token could teach you how to make one or two types of food with special effects. The singing token would similarly teach you how to sing songs with special effects. Only Jason knew this, of course, Sonny might have figured it out too. But neither of them would say anything about it. Instead, they would secretly buy tokens. Token holders didn''t know this. They wanted to exchange for six Attribute Orbs, clearly trying to raise the price. If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it. Jason opened the system to check the Group Chat App. Sure enough, he saw a dozen people who had obtained tokens posting their information. Many RV owners were already bidding, trying to buy the tokens in their hands. These dozen people weren''t in a hurry to sell their tokens, waiting for the highest bid, hoping to get the most benefit. Seeing this, Jason wasn''t in a rush to bid. Instead, he quietly watched the Group Chat App. At that moment, Jenna brought out a pot of tea and a plate of cookies from the kitchen, pouring a cup of tea for everyone. "Jason, I bought a package of tea leaves yesterday. This tea is delicious. You guys should try it too." Jason nodded, picking up the teacup and smelling a unique fragrance before even tasting it. He took a small sip and felt a lingering fragrance in his mouth and a refreshing sensation. The tea actually had a refreshing effect. In the Escape World, cigarettes, alcohol, and tea were all luxury items and could be sold at high prices in the future. For example, a single cigarette could sell for twenty or thirty Escape Coins. If he could get a production line for cigarettes, alcohol, and tea, he could definitely make a lot of Escape Coins. Jason took a few sips of tea and continued to focus on the tokens in the Group Chat App. Besides the cooking token that Mark was selling, there were also singing, driving, medical, planting, farming, and winemaking tokens. The quantity of each token varied. The cooking token had the most, with five people selling them. The most popular was the medical token, but there was only one. Many RV owners were bidding high for it. On the other hand, people initially bid on Mark''s token, but RV owners weren''t stupid. They realized they were intentionally raising the price and ignored them. They thought the skills in their tokens were valuable. Jason was also interested in the medical token. He had assigned ?Joy the position of medic, but without any similar skills, ?Joy could only do intelligence work. Jason had to get this medical token to increase the team''s medical capabilities. However, other RV owners had the same idea as Jason and were bidding high for the medical token. One RV owner had already offered a 1-star equipment in exchange for the medical token. Jason knew he couldn''t wait any longer and sent a private message to the person selling the medical token. The person selling the medical token was called Howard. Jason remembered him. On the first day of the Escape World, he had pocketed six Attribute Orbs from a RV owner and was thrown onto the highway and forced to board a bus. "Brother, if you want to buy the medical token, bid in the Group Chat App. I don''t accept private transactions," Howard replied after receiving Jason''s private message. This was Howard''s way of intentionally raising the price. Only by trading openly in the Group Chat App would RV owners continuously raise prices, maximizing his profit. Jason naturally wouldn''t bid in the Group Chat App, so he sent a message: "I''m offering a flat price of six E-Rank Attribute Orbs, or a 1-star combat boots plus two Attribute Orbs." "If you don''t like either of these prices, I won''t offer any higher." Howard didn''t reply immediately after seeing Jason''s offer, as if he were considering something. After waiting about a minute, Howard agreed to the deal, exchanging for six Attribute Orbs. "Okay, I already have 1-star combat boots, so I''ll exchange the token for six Attribute Orbs." Both parties quickly completed the transaction. Howard also announced in the Group Chat App that the medical token had been traded, causing dissatisfaction and complaints among those bidding on the token. Jason looked at the medical token in his hand, nodding with satisfaction, then looked at Tiffany: "Tell the two people selling the cooking and singing tokens that the Attribute Orbs are gone." Tiffany nodded, and immediately contacted the two people selling the tokens as Jason instructed. On the bus. After receiving Tiffany''s message, Mark''s expression immediately changed. He had thought Tiffany would add one or two Attribute Orbs to buy his token, but he didn''t expect them to be out of Attribute Orbs. Mark regretted it so much, hating himself for being too greedy. But soon, Tiffany sent him another message, saying he could trade the token plus 150 Escape Coins for a pair of 1-star combat boots. Mark was overjoyed. He had obtained more than 180 Escape Coins and a cooking token from the Bronze Chest, which was enough to exchange for 1-star combat boots. So Mark gratefully exchanged for the 1-star combat boots with Tiffany. What Mark didn''t know was that the crafting price for the 1-star combat boots was 100 Escape Coins. Jason had essentially earned 50 Escape Coins and a token from him for free. 98 - Rice and Recovery After Mark''s example of trading tokens for boots, Tiffany used her 1-Star boots to acquire over a dozen more tokens. Most of the tokens in the Group Chat App channel ended up in Tiffany''s hands. These tokens were all for auxiliary skills and weren''t as valuable on the surface as the 1-Star boots that boosted strength. So, like Mark, these folks had to add 150 Escape Coins to get the boots. Even if they were reluctant, they had no choice but to trade with Tiffany. Because no other RV owner could offer anything better than 1-Star boots for the tokens. So, Jason, after deducting the cost of synthesizing the boots, not only earned a dozen tokens for free but also a few hundred Escape Coins. This made Tiffany extremely happy. She hadn''t realized the 1-Star boots were so valuable. Tiffany already vaguely sensed how valuable the 1-Star boots would be in the future. The reason the 1-Star boots weren''t selling now was because the price was too high, and not many people could afford them. Once everyone saved enough Escape Coins, they''d definitely buy a pair of boots to boost their strength. When more people bought them, the profits could reach hundreds of thousands of Escape Coins or more, and this was just one of the Blueprints that Jason had collected. You could imagine how wealthy Jason would be in the future. Jason had no idea that Tiffany was already envisioning him earning massive amounts of Escape Coins in the future. Right now, Jason was smiling as he organized the tokens in his hand. After acquiring so many tokens, the team''s logistics skills were all taken care of. Jason now had 1 Medical Skill Token, 3 Cooking Skill Tokens, 2 Driving Skill Tokens, 2 Planting Skill Tokens, 2 Animal Husbandry Skill Tokens, 2 Singing Skill Tokens, and 1 Brewing Skill Token. The women were gathered around the sofa, all curiously looking at the tokens. Jason first took out the Medical Skill Token and gave it to Sophie: "Sophie, this token is for you." Jason wasn''t sure what could be learned from the Medical Skill Token, but it would definitely enhance Sophie''s medical abilities. "Thank you, Jason," Sophie said, sitting next to Chloe and cheerfully accepting the token. Sophie knew how precious this Medical Skill Token was. Many RV owners were bidding high prices for it, but Jason bought it for her, so she was naturally grateful. Jason then took out three Cooking Skill Tokens and one Brewing Skill Token and gave them all to Jenna. "These tokens are for you, Jenna." Jenna was taken aback and quickly waved her hand, saying, "Jason, that''s too many tokens. One is enough for me." Jason laughed and said, "You''re our team''s chef. Giving these tokens to Chloe and the others wouldn''t do any good. Do you want them to cook for you?" This book''s true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience. Chloe, standing to the side, also said with a smile encouragingly, "Jenna, just accept them. Once your cooking skills improve, we sisters will have a feast." Sophie and Tiffany also joined in, urging her to accept the tokens. Jenna then shyly accepted the four tokens. "Jason, I promise I''ll make even more delicious food," Jenna firmly promised. Jason nodded with a smile. He wasn''t in a hurry to distribute the remaining Driving, Planting, Animal Husbandry, and Singing Skill Tokens. Jenna, Sophie, and Tiffany all had their own responsibilities, so there was no need for them to learn other skills. As for Chloe and the other fighters, there was even less reason for them to learn these logistics skills. His RV had no limit on the number of people, so there was no need for one person to be responsible for multiple roles. The Driving Skill Tokens would definitely be used by the team''s future drivers. The workload for Planting and Animal Husbandry was also significant, and Jason wanted to find someone specifically to handle those tasks. As for the Singing Skill Tokens, Jason felt that they weren''t simple. The songs sung might have a support effect. In the future, he could use the tokens to train a support person who could sing. Jason collected all eight of these tokens, two of each, and said, "I''ve decided to keep the remaining tokens for the people who will be specifically responsible for these areas in the future. I won''t be distributing them to you." The women naturally had no objections after hearing this. Jenna and Sophie were already very satisfied with their tokens. Tiffany still needed to handle trades, and her workload was considerable. She had no time to learn other skill tokens. Chloe, Kira, Ellie, and Lily were all fighters, and they would be assigned skill books in the future, so there was no need for them to compete with the logistics personnel for Skill Dungeon Tokens. "Jenna, Sophie, use your tokens to go to the Dungeon to learn. You should be back before nightfall," Jason said to the two women. The two women had naturally already prepared. After hearing Jason''s words, Sophie took out her Medical Skill Token, and Jenna took out a Cooking Skill Token. The two women used their tokens together, and each was enveloped in a ball of white light, disappearing from the RV. Time passed... a day quickly went by. Inside the RV, Jason spent the day lying on the bed, resting with his eyes closed. Once his Physique and Spirit had recovered, he condensed a Shadow Doppelganger and practiced multitasking. Since each time he condensed a Shadow Doppelganger, he needed a period of recovery, Jason''s training wasn''t very effective. Currently, he could only maintain his main body and Doppelganger acting at the same time, but he couldn''t fight simultaneously. And Ellie and Lily, after each driving for several hours, were now fully capable of driving the RV themselves. From now on, the two women could participate in rotating driving shifts. Tiffany spent the day selling items. Including the items that Kevin helped sell, she only earned Jason over three thousand Escape Coins that day. This wasn''t because of her lack of ability. Since various teams didn''t have income from chests, their spending power naturally decreased significantly. At this moment, a white light appeared inside the RV, and Jenna returned to the RV. "Oh, sis is back!" Ellie was the first to notice Jenna, and her exclamation attracted the attention of everyone in the RV. At this moment, except for Chloe, who was driving the RV, all the women in the RV surrounded Jenna. After hearing the sound, Jason got up from the bed and curiously asked, "Jenna, how was it? Did you learn any cooking skills from the Dungeon?" Jenna nodded, but still somewhat embarrassed, she explained, "Jason, from the Dungeon, I only learned how to make...egg fried rice that has a Physique recovery effect." Egg fried rice? The women all looked at Jenna in confusion. Ellie immediately asked, "Sis, can''t you make egg fried rice?" Jenna quickly explained what happened to her in the Dungeon. After using the token, she was teleported to a kitchen and then forced to constantly practice making egg fried rice. Jason nodded to the side. In his previous life, he was teleported to a training ground and constantly practiced using a spear like a martial artist. It seemed that a Cooking Skill Token could only teach you how to make one type of food with a special effect. Egg fried rice that could restore Physique wasn''t bad. Jason was very curious what kind of food Jenna would learn to make with the remaining two Cooking Skill Tokens. Jason saw that Jenna looked disappointed and understood that she was very unhappy that she only learned to make egg fried rice. So he comforted her, "Jenna, it''s great that you learned to make egg fried rice that can restore Physique. It just so happens that the rice we planted is almost ripe." 99 - Needles and Nerves Jenna''s eyes lit up upon hearing Jason''s comforting words, and she nodded in agreement. Jason was right; fried rice was a good choice since the main ingredient was rice. The rice Jason had planted would be ready in a few days, so at least she wouldn''t run out of rice for her fried rice. No matter what dish she learned to make, she needed all the ingredients. Otherwise, it would be like being a skilled cook without any rice to cook. With that thought, Jenna felt that learning to make fried rice from the token was a great idea since the ingredients were the easiest to find. But soon, Jenna thought of something else and quickly said, "Jason, after the rice and wheat mature, they need to be husked and peeled..." Jenna had thought about this before. Rice and wheat couldn''t be eaten straight from the ground; they had to go through complex processes like husking rice and peeling and grinding wheat. Jason knew this, so he explained, "We don''t need to rush to eat rice and noodles. Let''s collect and store the matured rice and wheat first, and then find a rice-husking machine later." Jason knew that such machines weren''t hard to come by; some pursuers who sold seeds even had them. He could buy one when he saw it. Jenna understood that these things couldn''t be rushed. She looked at the time and realized it was almost evening, so she would have to wait until tomorrow to learn the remaining tokens. At her current rate, she could only learn one token per day. The remaining two cooking tokens and one brewing token would take another three days to learn. "Jason, are you guys hungry? I''ll go make dinner." Jenna realized that everyone hadn''t eaten yet, so she quickly said. Ellie and Lily offered to help in the kitchen. Seeing that it was getting late, Jason said to Jenna, "It''s pretty late, so don''t bother making a big meal. Let''s just make some instant noodles." Jason wasn''t greedy for good food and drink. There was no need to trouble Jenna to make a big meal. Everyone could just have some instant noodles. Besides, many people on the bus couldn''t even afford instant noodles. Jenna nodded and went to the kitchen to cook the noodles, with Ellie and Lily following to help. Meanwhile, as people who had used tokens returned from the Dungeon world, the Group Chat App and the bus became lively. Everyone who had learned skills from the tokens became the focus of attention. Many RV owners wanted to recruit these talents because it was much cheaper than buying a token. The RV owners could do the math. But these people weren''t having an easy time on the bus. Some were captured and forced to reveal what skills they had learned from the tokens, then suffered a beating. The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. Some were isolated and ostracized, while others were flattered and fawned over. There was a mix of everything. But the most talked-about topic was how good the skills they learned were. Some had learned combat skills and indeed became more skilled fighters. Others had learned cooking skills, which weren''t very useful on the bus. This made those who sold the tokens feel relieved. They were glad they hadn''t used the tokens and instead bought a pair of boots that improved their strength. Tiffany''s status among these people was greatly enhanced. They had all added Tiffany as a friend because there would be more opportunities to trade in the future. Tiffany made her purchases privately and didn''t attract too much attention, but she had more and more friends. And these friends weren''t ordinary people. They included not only RV owners from various teams but also leaders with strength and resources on the bus. In short, Tiffany''s network of contacts had secretly expanded throughout the Group Chat App, but she rarely sold things openly and didn''t attract much attention. Not long after, a white light descended inside the RV, and Sophie''s figure returned to the RV. Kira and Tiffany were the first to notice her return and exclaimed with delight, "Sophie, you''re back?" Sophie smiled and nodded, greeting the two women. Since she got on the RV, she no longer had to deal with infighting and danger and had returned to her carefree self. Jason was lying in bed, recovering his Physique and Spirit. Hearing that Sophie had returned, he curiously got up and asked, "Sophie, you''re back. Tell us what medical skills you learned from the token." Sophie had wanted to share what medical skills she had learned for a while. Hearing Jason''s question, she immediately said, "Jason, the medical skill I learned is acupuncture." Acupuncture? Jason''s eyes lit up, and he quickly asked Sophie to tell him more. It turned out that after Sophie was transported to the Dungeon world, she gained various acupuncture knowledge in her mind. Then, she used acupuncture to simulate treating various patients in the Dungeon world. And the acupuncture Sophie learned wasn''t simple. It required consuming Spirit and Physique to infuse into the needles to achieve special medical effects. Jason couldn''t help but marvel. It seemed that the medical token Sophie used was extraordinary. But Jason thought of something else and quickly asked, "Sophie, do you have acupuncture needles with you?" Acupuncture needles weren''t like ingredients; they were hard to find. Unless they built a medical room like the kitchen, there might be medical tools like silver needles inside. Hearing Jason''s question, Sophie smiled and took out a needle case. Opening it, there was a row of dozens of silver needles, which made Jason and Kira''s hair stand on end. "Jason, look... This is a set of silver needles that the system rewarded me." Jason nodded calmly on the surface, but in his heart, he thought that he must never get sick or injured and fall into Sophie''s hands. He didn''t want to be pricked into a hedgehog. However, Sophie didn''t know what Jason was thinking. Seeing Jason lying in bed, her eyes lit up, and she asked, "Jason, are you resting? I can use acupuncture to help you recover from fatigue. It''s very effective." Jason''s expression changed, and he quickly got out of bed and stretched his limbs: "I''m just lying in bed for a nap. No need for acupuncture." Sophie was a little disappointed. She wanted to show Jason her acupuncture skills. Kira and Tiffany covered their mouths and giggled. They naturally knew that Jason was lying in bed to recover his Physique and Spirit, so this performance clearly showed he was afraid of acupuncture. But not to mention Jason, they also felt a little scared when they saw dozens of cold, gleaming silver needles. Sophie seemed really eager to give Jason a few needles, so she said, "Jason, how about acupuncture when you rest tonight?" Jason''s expression changed again. He was sure that Sophie wouldn''t harm him and could see that the girl just wanted to show off her acupuncture skills. But he was not sick or injured, so why would he want to play with needles for no reason? So Jason declined: "I''m a little busy tonight, and I have to drive... When we have time, let''s go to the kitchen for instant noodles first." After Jason finished speaking, he pulled the confused Sophie to the kitchen. He had already decided that he would collect more of Sophie''s Favor Points tonight so that she wouldn''t always be thinking about giving him acupuncture. Sophie was obediently pulled to the kitchen. She didn''t know that she just wanted to show off her acupuncture skills but would receive special attention tonight. 100 - Gale Force Night fell, and every team kept their vehicles moving, desperate to avoid being swept away by the tornadoes. These three days were a test of endurance. The first team to crack would face total annihilation. So, despite the fatigue, no one dared to stop for rest. Inside the RV. Ellie yawned, crawled out of bed, threw on some clothes, and splashed some water on her face in the bathroom to wake herself up. "Jason, I''m here to take over," Ellie said cheerfully, bouncing into the driver''s seat. To keep the RV moving, they needed to rotate drivers throughout the night. It was now Ellie''s turn to relieve Jason. Jason glanced at Ellie and grinned. "You''re full of energy tonight. You got up so fast." Ellie nodded. The double bed''s recovery effect was impressive. A short nap on it restored her energy and gave her a rosy complexion. Her good condition was mainly because she only lost Favor Points once tonight. Jason rotated between Ellie, Chloe, Kira, and Lily to drive the RV, so he didn''t over-collect from any one of them. He didn''t want them driving while exhausted. Instead, Jason focused on collecting Favor Points from Jenna and the other two women responsible for logistics. Especially Sophie, who had been thinking about giving Jason acupuncture, had suffered quite a bit, making Chloe feel sorry for her. Jason''s D+ Rank strength was no joke. Despite being outnumbered, they were no match for him. Under Chloe''s resentful gaze, Jason collected 70 Favor Points tonight. He then spent 40 Favor Points to exchange for four D-Rank Attribute Orbs, strengthening his D-Rank Physique to D+ Rank. Now, all of Jason''s four attributes had reached D+ Rank, making him on par with the pursuers in terms of stats. Next, if Jason could accumulate 100 Favor Points tomorrow, he could exchange for a C-Rank Attribute Orb and become a C-Rank powerhouse. Reaching C-Rank was a jump to another level. Who could stand against him then? But Jason felt uneasy. Was C-Rank strength really so easy to achieve? If David had been able to reach C-Rank so easily in his past life, he would have beaten the Feminism women into a crying mess long ago. Even if David was collecting Favor Points slower than him now, he caught plenty of women later on, and spending some time to raise one attribute to C-Rank or B-Rank wouldn''t be difficult. Yet, David hadn''t reached an untouchable level of strength in his past life. Enjoying this book? Seek out the original to ensure the author gets credit. Jason vaguely realized that David''s strength improvement might have been restricted in his previous life. As for what the restriction was, Jason wasn''t sure yet. Anyway, he would find out tomorrow night when he accumulated 100 Favor Points and tried to exchange for a C-Rank Attribute Orb. "Ellie, take the wheel." Jason parked the RV, left the driver''s seat, and let Ellie take over. Ellie had already learned to drive during the day, so she handled it without any problems. As the RV continued to move, stopping for no more than a minute at a time, the tornado behind them didn''t break the rules and sweep the RV away. The night temperature was quite cold, so Jason took a blanket and draped it over Ellie, giving her some instructions. Ellie, her small figure sitting in the driver''s seat, was focused on driving. She nodded repeatedly as she listened to Jason''s instructions. Jason stayed in the driver''s seat with Ellie for a while, and once he saw that she was doing well, he felt relieved and went back to sleep. Time passed The headlights illuminated the road ahead as they drove, and Jason and the women took turns driving, safely getting through the night. Daybreak approached. *Ding*, Wind force increased to level 10, increasing the power of the wind disaster. Settling the number of people in the car is 8, issuing 800 units of gasoline and 26 Escape Coins. (Jason and Chloe are D-rank strength, and the other six women are E-rank strength.) Inside the RV''s driver''s seat. Kira, who was driving, heard the system notification and glanced at the rearview mirror, seeing the tornado behind them expanding at a visible rate, her face changed. She felt an unstable feeling on the steering wheel in her hand at this moment. Not good! Kira immediately gripped the steering wheel tightly while pressing the brakes to slightly reduce her speed, which stabilized the RV''s movement. This clearly showed that the wind outside was too strong, blowing the RV off course and making driving very difficult. The driver had to constantly exert force to hold the steering wheel firmly, otherwise, the vehicle would swerve, go off the road, and end in a crash. Fortunately, Kira''s Strength attribute was E+, so she had no problem gripping the steering wheel firmly. "Kira, how is it? Is driving okay?" Jason immediately went to the driver''s seat to ask how things were. Kira said with a serious expression, "Hubby, the wind outside is very strong, and the steering wheel is shifting uncontrollably. You have to grip the steering wheel tightly." Kira told him about the problems she was currently facing. Jason nodded seriously; he understood what Kira meant. So he called Chloe, Ellie, and Lily over and told them about the situation. The three women saw Kira''s hands on the steering wheel shaking slightly from time to time, and they knew that driving today was going to be harder. "Jason, we''ll be careful when we drive next," Lily nodded seriously. Their Strength was E+, so as long as they didn''t get careless, they wouldn''t have any problems driving. Chloe thought for a moment and suggested, "Hubby, should we drive a little slower? That way the problem with the steering wheel shifting won''t be as serious." Jason shook his head at Chloe''s suggestion. "We don''t need to slow down. We''ll keep the same speed during the day, and we can slow down a bit at night." Actually, Jason had one thing he didn''t tell the women: driving faster would cover more distance, and they would enter the extreme heat world ahead of schedule tomorrow. Jason naturally wouldn''t tell the women this, as it would affect their driving. If they knew and couldn''t help but speed up, driving too fast could easily lead to an accident. And the wind force tomorrow would be even stronger; by then, all vehicles would only be able to reduce their speed to 30KM/h, so speeding up wouldn''t be possible. Therefore, it was best not to reduce speed today, and try to cover as much distance as possible. Although Jason''s request made the women a little confused, they trusted Jason unconditionally and naturally wouldn''t reduce their speed. In fact, they were all uneasy about the tornado chasing behind them, afraid that the RV would be swept away, so they were unwilling to reduce their speed. Seeing that Kira was driving okay, Jason took the women to the kitchen for breakfast. After a quick breakfast, Jason looked at Jenna and said, "Jenna, go use the Cooking skill token. Ellie and the others can take care of cleaning the kitchen." Jenna nodded, took out a Cooking token, used it, and was enveloped in a white light, disappearing inside the RV.
