72: Chapter 72 Host, you yourself

...

A long time later.

As the sounds in the room finally faded away.

The system's voice finally rang out in Ye Fan's mind.

[Ding! Detection successful: Li Shiya is pregnant!]

[Congratulations Host, you have completed the system mission!]

[Reward obtained: 300 system points × 7]

[Reward obtained: 1ml rapid recovery serum × 7]

[Reward obtained: Lightning Talisman × 7]

[Reward obtained: Star Blade × 70]

[Reward obtained: system storage space expanded to 50 cubic meters.]

[Reward obtained: All basic attributes of the Host's body have been upgraded to S+]

Ye Fan's mouth hung open as he listened to the system announce the rewards with wide-eyed surprise; his joy was beyond words.

His smile was incredibly radiant.

He thought to himself, "These rewards are so generous. Li Shiya truly deserves her status as the highest-rated woman I've taken in so far."

"Congratulations Host, all basic attributes have reached perfection, and all Supernatural Ability levels have been upgraded to Level 4." After the system finished announcing the rewards, its voice echoed in Ye Fan's mind once more.

Instantly, the smile on Ye Fan's face grew even brighter.

This... what kind of god-tier rewards were these?

He was utterly shocked; this was the first time he'd received such a haul.

However, Ye Fan's smile soon vanished.

Just as Ye Fan was still reveling in the abundance of rewards.

The next sentence from the system left him stunned: "Since the Host's physical fitness has reached perfection, the system will undergo a one-month upgrade. During this period, the Host will be unable to complete any system missions."

"Ah, what?" Ye Fan's eyes widened instantly, his face filled with disbelief. "This..."

This information was truly hard for Ye Fan to accept.

In other words, during this one-month system upgrade, he wouldn't be able to complete any system missions at all.

That meant he couldn't get system rewards, which meant he couldn't improve his strength.

For Ye Fan's current situation, this was simply...

Right now, that Zombie King in Jiangcheng University was constantly and rapidly growing stronger.

If he couldn't get stronger as quickly as possible, how would he face that Zombie King when the time came?

But the system just had to choose this exact moment to upgrade, which made Ye Fan feel extremely uncomfortable.

At this moment.

Ye Fan was most concerned about one question: would his system storage space be affected?

If the system upgrade rendered it unusable, it would truly be the end of the world.

So, Ye Fan quickly asked in his mind, "Then... during your upgrade, will the special functions I've acquired be affected? For example, the Zombie Monitoring Function and the system storage space!"

The system quickly explained in Ye Fan's mind: "All items obtained by the Host can be used normally, including the Zombie Monitoring Function and the system storage space! Therefore, the Host need not worry; you just need to survive well..."

Ye Fan was a bit speechless, but hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Not bad, not bad! The situation isn't too terrible. As long as I lay low and wait for the system upgrade to finish, I can quickly boost my strength again."

"Very well, the system is about to begin the upgrade. Host, you're on your own. Good luck!"

With that, the system's presence instantly vanished from Ye Fan's mind.

"Hey! No, wait a second, I still have questions to ask!" Ye Fan hurriedly called out.

But no matter what he said or how he shouted, the system's voice never appeared in his mind again.

It was as if it had never existed.

Ye Fan's expression turned grim. He threw up his hands and whispered helplessly, "Sigh, looks like this month is going to be tough. I can only rely on myself."

He wondered, now that his physical fitness was fully upgraded to S+ and all his Supernatural Abilities were at Level 4, what level had his blood qi reached?

This was exactly what Ye Fan had wanted to ask just now.

But the system disappeared so quickly that it was gone before he could even get the question out.

When his rating was A+, his blood qi corresponded to Level 3.

Now that he had reached S+.

Could his blood qi have reached Level 5 or above?

Ye Fan wasn't sure.

At this moment, he really wanted to find a Zombie King at Level 5 or higher to pick a fight with.

Then he would know exactly how strong he had become.

But he was also a bit afraid of the one in Jiangcheng University, which very likely had already reached Level 6 or above.

If he encountered it, he didn't know if his current strength would be enough to win.

This left Ye Fan in an awkward position, unsure whether to go or stay.

"Sigh, forget it, whatever. I'm exhausted today. I'll sleep on it and see tomorrow!" Ye Fan said in a low voice, slapping his thigh with his palm.

Then, he slowly lay down beside Li Shiya and fell asleep!

Since he couldn't continue to increase his strength for now, the only thing he could do was relax his mindset.

Try to lay as low as possible.

As long as he didn't kick the bucket, it would be fine.

...

The next morning, Ye Fan woke up earlier than anyone.

He left the room early and headed toward the first floor.

This luxury villa had four floors in total. The top three floors were temporarily requisitioned by Ye Fan, while the first floor was left to Li Chongan and his son.

However, the reason Ye Fan came to the first floor so early was to find Li Chongan.

Now that his system was undergoing an upgrade.

Everything had to be planned carefully. Ye Fan had to have Li Chongan recruit more manpower as quickly as possible.

Li Chongan and his son had woken up even earlier than Ye Fan and were already sitting in the first-floor hall.

He didn't know what the two were discussing.

When they saw Ye Fan appear, they instantly stopped talking, stood up quickly, and respectfully greeted him.

"Master, it's still early. Why didn't you rest a bit longer?"

"Sigh!" Ye Fan shrugged and sighed, saying helplessly, "I wanted to! But with things so chaotic outside, how can I have the heart to sleep?"

Ye Fan walked quickly to the sofa in the hall and sat down slowly, then nodded to the two, signaling them to sit as well.

Only then did Li Chongan and his son dare to sit down!

Immediately, Ye Fan asked, "By the way, how many survivors returned in total yesterday?"

"Master, there are only the eighteen who fled back at the very beginning. After that, not a single survivor managed to escape back here."

"Eighteen? That's really not great. Are there any awakened Ability Users among those eighteen?"

"There... seems to be one, but I'm not entirely sure."

Ye Fan gave a small hum of acknowledgment and then said, "Alright, have him come see me later."

"Yes, Master!"
