That's amazing survival skills!

[Strength 55 - Strength 90]

Energy rises from the coccyx, rushes along the spine to the forehead, and spreads to the limbs and torso. Muscle fibers are constantly torn and reorganized, gradually becoming thicker.

Heavy breathing came from beside me.

The three women turned to look and found that Lin Yuan was breathing heavily and had large beads of sweat on his forehead, just like before. The only difference was that he was not curled up on the ground.

The skin began to turn red, even more so than before.

The three women silently observed Lin Yuan, noticing all his changes, and were very curious as to why he always wore such an expression.

Half an hour later.

Lin Yuan gasped for breath, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and face, and looked down at his trouser legs, which were already soaked with sweat.

Gu Siyu shook her head when she saw that the other person looked as if they had just been pulled out of the water.

Although I didn't understand it, I was deeply shocked.

They were even more curious about why the other party was able to produce these things that shouldn't belong to him for two consecutive days, and even more curious about where he got them from.

He has an even bigger secret!

【30:24:34】

Lin Yuan glanced at the countdown timer displayed on the light screen at the front of the car. There was still half an hour left, which should be enough.

[Quality Upgrade Card!]

"Use it against hardness," Lin Yuan murmured to himself.

[Upgrading...]

Upgrade successful!

【Hard (Quality Purple)】

[Active Effect: Increases skin hardness (calculated based on defense) by 65% ​​for 5 minutes, with an 8-minute cooldown.]

[Passive Effect: Permanently increases defense by 30]

Lin Yuanmo felt that the skin on the back of her hand was more resilient than before. When she scratched it with her fingernail, faint white marks appeared, but she felt no pain at all.

If I had upgraded this purple-quality toughness beforehand, and then used it to withstand the kobold priest's fireball skill, I probably wouldn't have suffered such great damage.

"What a pity, we were still a step too late."

Wang Xi, who was closest to him, turned her head to glance at the voice, completely unaware of the meaning behind the other person's words.

Finding him still the same, continuing to munch on his bread, she said casually, "We don't have much bread left in our stock."

Scattered on the ground were extremely dry loaves of bread. Although they didn't taste very good, they were filling and a good choice for maintaining the energy needed for daily life.

In the past two days, we have had plenty of other resources, but we have hardly obtained any food.

Gu Siyu glanced at the bread on the ground. Based on the current consumption of the four people, it could last until tomorrow morning before the supply was completely cut off.

"We'll be in the safe zone in a few minutes. We'll see if we can make the trade then."

"Well, I guess I'll hope so."

"It's okay, I have plenty more." Lin Yuan raised her hand and took out half of the bread from her backpack.

The air was filled with a whooshing sound, like raindrops falling to the ground. The bread that landed kept sliding around and quickly occupied the space at the four corners.

"Where did you come from?" Han Miao's pupils contracted sharply, staring incredulously at the bread in the corner. "Have you awakened a system?"

"Do you think this is a novel?"

Lin Yuan rolled his eyes, but had to admit that this woman's intuition was truly terrifying. However, how could he possibly tell anyone about something like this?

"You must have awakened a system!" Han Miao leaned forward, grabbed Lin Yuan's wrist, and shook it back and forth, saying coquettishly, "Let me see it, I've never seen what a system looks like before."

Lin Yuan glanced around and said, "Grown this big? How big?"

Han Miao froze, and when she came to her senses, she angrily raised her hand and slapped Lin Yuan on the head.

Snapped!

With her wrist gripped, Lin Yuan retaliated with even greater speed.

The sound of a clearer slap replaced it.

"Hmm, the texture is still as good as ever. Looks like you haven't lost weight during this time."

"you!"

Han Miao felt the pain in his buttocks, which wasn't as severe as before, but it seemed that this bastard had also scratched...scratched it while slapping him!

This made her feel extremely humiliated, and she couldn't bring herself to directly point it out.

What if we expose this scoundrel and he tries to force himself on us?

She was a weak woman, and together with the other two, they were no match for him now!

Zizi!

The piercing sound of electricity rang out again, accompanied by the cold, mechanical voice.

We have now entered a safe zone. The vehicle will stop in three minutes. Passengers, please prepare to disembark.

[Duration: 10 hours. You may leave early.]

Lin Yuan released Han Miao's wrist, stood up, walked to the front of the car, opened the chat interface, and found that it was just as he had expected, full of people expressing their anticipation for the safe zone.

Some even indulged in unrealistic fantasies.

The car doors opened to both sides.

It's no longer the abandoned, forest-like environment of before. The cement ground underfoot is very clean, and there are shops right across the street, creating a very modern environment.

The three women arrived at the car door with inexplicable excitement.

"Be careful, I have a feeling that this so-called safe zone isn't so safe after all," Lin Yuan warned before getting out of the car first.

When the four of them stood on the concrete ground, the panel reappeared in front of them.

Welcome to the safe zone. You are absolutely safe here. As long as you have enough survival points, you can buy anything you want.

[Action is prohibited within the safe zone. The consequence of any action will be elimination. Of course, if you have enough survival points, that's a different story.]

The two rules are explained in a very simple, yet extremely straightforward manner.

All of this conveys a single message.

As long as you have enough survival points, you can do whatever you want here!

The subway quietly stopped in place. Lin Yuan turned around and looked around. He found that the area was huge, with subways densely packed together, though of varying grades.

The lowest level is LV1, but there are quite a few like them who have upgraded to LV2.

The most striking feature is its streamlined body, painted in silver-white, with numerous windows, including a transparent glass panel at the front, allowing a clear view of the direction it is traveling.

"That must be a Level 3 subway, right?" Han Miao pointed to the subway that had just stopped not far away.

A group of one man and three women emerged from inside. However, compared to their group, the three women were clearly subordinate, hanging their heads and following behind the man, allowing him to touch them inappropriately.

"Disgusting," Gu Siyu muttered under her breath.

Wang Xi remained calm, showing little change in expression.

I've seen this kind of thing far too often in the business world; there are always quite a few people doing it.

Then he turned to look at Lin Yuan.

Although this man was a bit flirtatious and his hands were somewhat unruly, he was still much better than the man they had just met.

He clearly possesses sufficient strength, yet he still refrains from forcing himself on her.

The man had his arms around the woman beside him, his hands resting on his chest, his fingers wandering as he walked towards them.

The force applied seemed a bit too much, and a look of pain appeared on the woman's face. Out of fear, she could only force herself to endure it and dared not make a sound.

The man grinned when he saw Wang Xi, Gu Siyu, and Han Miao, whistling at them before turning to Lin Yuan and saying, "Brother, these three women are quite nice."

"How about we take turns playing?"

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow at the man. "I don't think so."

The man wasn't angry at being rejected; instead, he laughed heartily and continued walking towards the store with the woman beside him.

"It's okay, they'll still be mine afterward."

"Pervert!" Han Miao was furious. He put his hands on his hips and shouted at the figure's back.

What he got in return was an even more arrogant laugh from the man. He turned his head to the side, licked his lips, and looked at the man with naked possessiveness in his eyes.

Gu Siyu and Wang Xi frowned at the same time.

"Surviving on the subway is probably not that simple."

Lin Yuan nodded, showing no surprise whatsoever. "The woman next to that man wasn't originally in his car."

"Hmm? What do you mean?" Gu Siyu looked at Lin Yuan, wondering how the other party knew about this, or if it was just his guess.

"Didn't you notice that those three women were terrified of that man?"

"Given the vast disparity in strength between the two sides, fear is only natural," Wang Xi said. "But what does that prove?"
