Chapter 58: Invincible Attributes, I Do Not Eat Beef

Around the dining table, Liu Yang introduced the newcomers to everyone:
"Let me introduce you all. This is Bai Ling, nicknamed White Fox. She is an esper. And this is Wang Feifei, who, just like you, is an ordinary person."
Hearing Liu Yang's words, expressions of surprise appeared on everyone's faces.
An esper?
This stunningly beautiful woman with a head of ethereal, short white hair turned out to be an esper?
He Yushi and the others immediately cast gazes filled with envy.
In the apocalypse, being able to awaken an esper ability was something truly enviable.
Possessing an ability meant having the capability to protect oneself.
When facing ordinary zombies, an esper would never feel fear.
Then, Liu Yang introduced He Yushi and the others to Wang Feifei and Bai Fox.
Both White Fox and Wang Feifei wore friendly smiles as they said, "Nice to meet you all. Since we will be living together from now on, please take good care of us."
Although White Fox was an esper and had been quite arrogant back at the Black Tiger Base, things were different now.
Since she had decided to follow Liu Yang, she needed to show proper respect to the women around him.
Compared to these women, she was a newcomer.
She certainly wouldn't dare to overstep her bounds or act superior to the host.
"Not at all, not at all! There's no need to talk about taking care of each other. You're an esper, and we're just ordinary people. As long as we all get along well, that'll be wonderful," He Yushi and the others quickly chimed in.
"Of course! I'm very easy to get along with. Don't worry, if there's any danger in the villa area, I'll protect you!" White Fox said, patting her chest.
Hearing this, expressions of pleasant surprise appeared on He Yushi and the others' faces as they said,
"That's simply wonderful! With an esper to protect us, we can finally feel at ease!"
Zhao Lina, the top student and campus belle, chimed in, "If possible, you should chat with us and teach us how to awaken our abilities! We want to awaken them too!"
Hearing this, Tang Mengting and the others nodded eagerly. "Yes, yes! Exactly! You should teach us so we can awaken our abilities too. Then we'll have the power to protect ourselves!"
White Fox replied, "There aren't really many special techniques to awakening an esper ability; it mostly depends on talent and genes. If you really asked me to teach you, I wouldn't even know where to begin. However, if you want to know more about espers, I can tell you everything I know."
Zhao Lina nodded and said, "Mhm, that's fine too. Tell us all about espers, and we can study it ourselves to see if we can figure out the secret to awakening!"
Everyone chatted and ate, creating a warm and lively atmosphere.
Only Zhou Keke seemed uninterested in the conversation, keeping her head down and eating her meal continuously.
Halfway through the chat, Zhou Keke put down her bowl and said, "I'm full. I'll go back to take a shower first. You guys enjoy your meal."
Liu Yang found this a bit strange. He remarked, "Huh? Why is Zhou Keke eating so fast? And her face looks a bit unusual—kind of flushed. Is she coming down with a fever?"
He Yushi wore a mischievous smile as she nodded. "Oh, yes, yes! Her health is a bit poor. You'd better go give her a thorough check-up later!"
Zhao Lina added, "A check-up as fierce as a category-eight gale, oh!"
Tang Mengting and the others instantly burst into laughter. "Hahaha! Even though Zhou Keke is the sports goddess, she might not be able to handle that! You guys stop being so mischievous!"
"Hahaha! Exactly, Zhao Lina, you're so bad!" Su Xiao, Chen Dan, and the others laughed heartily as well.
Seeing everyone laughing so happily, Liu Yang was completely baffled.
What's going on?
Is there something funny?
Why can't I understand the punchline at all?
Whatever.
Time to eat!
Unable to fathom the women's sense of humor, Liu Yang decided to focus on his meal.
After finishing dinner, he returned to his own room.
However, the moment he opened the door, his sharp perception immediately sensed that someone was inside the room.
He also caught the faint scent of a woman's perfume.
Liu Yang paused for a moment. Then, a mischievous smile spread across his face as he spoke into the room:
"Which little kitty is being so proactive? Waiting for me in the room before I've even finished dinner? To reward you for being so eager, I'll definitely have to put in some extra effort!"
Hearing these words, the bedding suddenly trembled.
Liu Yang smiled smugly.
He immediately dove under the covers.
Once beneath the sheets, he realized that the person waiting for him was none other than the sports goddess, Zhou Keke!
Furthermore, Zhou Keke was waiting for Liu Yang's plucking in all her pristine, unclad glory.
Looking at her perfect figure and the distinct mermaid lines on her abdomen, Liu Yang couldn't help but say, "So it's the famous sports goddess! I guess I really need to take good care of you then!"
"Mmh, ah! ♡" Zhou Keke let out a nervous, low moan before cautiously whispering, "You mustn't be too crazy..."
Liu Yang smiled with absolute confidence. "Relax, I have the most experience with girls like you who haven't experienced the winds and moonlight. I know what I'm doing!"
Soon, indescribable sounds echoed from within the room...
...
Student Council President Chen Hao had showered Zhou Keke with millions in gifts and still failed to win her over, yet in the end, this sports goddess voluntarily crawled into Liu Yang's bed.
If Chen Hao were to find out about this, he would probably be so furious he'd devour three large roasted chicken legs in one sitting.
...
The next day.
Liu Yang checked his system notifications.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the task of 'spreading branches and leaves' for 10 consecutive days. All basic attributes of the host have been increased to 1,000 points!"
Upon receiving this notification, Liu Yang was overjoyed.
Good grief! Originally, all his basic attributes were at 850 points, and now they had jumped straight to 1,000 points—a massive boost of 150 points!
Wasn't the reward for this branch-and-leaf spreading a bit too overpowered?
1,000 basic attribute points were 20 times that of an ordinary human!
Back when he was at 16.5 times, Liu Yang could slice through level-6 zombies on the stele test as easily as cutting vegetables.
Now that it had increased to 20 times, wouldn't he be virtually invincible?
To the current Liu Yang, ordinary espers were no different from mere ants.
Awesome!
Liu Yang felt a surge of inflated confidence.
With such formidable attributes, should he finally be able to utter the phrase, "I don't eat beef"?
Liu Yang checked his panel statistics:
"Name: Liu Yang."
"Age: 18."
"Height: 185 cm."
"Weight: 80 kg."
"Strength: 1000."
"Speed: 1000."
"Stamina: 1000."
"Spirit: 1000."
"Abilities possessed:
1. Future Deduction - Level 4,
2. Virus Immunity - Level 4,
3. Freeze Control - Level 6,
4. Dark Space - Level 5,
5. Zombie Control - Level 2."
"Equipment possessed: Dark Cloak, Black Light Katana."
"Special Talent possessed: Genetic Reinforcement."
Looking at this panel, Liu Yang was beyond thrilled.
Not to mention having five abilities, his primary offensive skill, Ice Control, had been upgraded to level 6. His ice needles were now practically inexhaustible, and he could even forge ice shields or wrap his entire body in frozen armor.
Just this 20-fold multiplier on basic attributes alone was enough to instantly kill many espers!
Because an ordinary level-1 esper only possessed a base attribute of around 100 points.
Liu Yang's basic attributes were ten times those of an ordinary level-1 esper!
Attributes like this were enough to instantly eliminate an opponent before they even had time to react!
Moreover, there were still 15 young maidens living in the adjacent villa.
That meant a guaranteed 15 more kills.
When the time came, would a 25-kill streak yield even greater rewards?
