5: Chapter 5 The Professor with a 95/100 Appearance
As soon as these words were spoken, both of their gazes turned toward the side door.
Through the Villa's surveillance monitor, they saw a figure wearing a white lab coat.
Her figure was slender, her temperament cold and aloof. Even though she was in a disheveled state, with bloodstains and dust on her white lab coat, it still couldn't hide her intellectual and elegant beauty. Her beauty score was actually even higher than Jiang Wanxing's!
Behind her, two Rotten Claw Monsters were closing in step by step.
Her white lab coat had already been torn by the sharp claws of the Rotten Claw Monsters, adding a gruesome wound to her arm.
Fresh blood flowed down her fair arm and dripped onto the ground, looking particularly striking amidst the blood mist. The situation was critical!
Another goddess had delivered herself to his doorstep!
And she was a biology professor who was well-versed in the weaknesses of Strange Monsters!!
This made Lin Zhou feel incredibly excited.
However, he still felt some hesitation.
Because the side door still had only primary-level defense; once breached by the Rotten Claw Monsters, the army of Strange Monsters would take the opportunity to swarm in!
Lin Zhou looked at the cold and elegant Professor Su Qinghan on the monitor, then at Jiang Wanxing, who was gripping his arm tightly beside him, and suddenly felt a surge of determination.
Fortune favors the bold!
He had to take in this second goddess!
The pleading sounds at the side door were growing weaker. Professor Su Qinghan's white lab coat was torn again by the sharp claws of the Rotten Claw Monsters, and the wound on her arm deepened.
She leaned against the cold side door, her body trembling slightly.
Yet, she still maintained a trace of cold, aloof elegance. A flicker of despair flashed through those cold eyes, but she did not give up.
[Detected female survivor Professor Su Qinghan approaching the Villa's side door. Enable temporary defense?]
[Professor Su Qinghan's Talent: C-rank [Micro-Ice Condensation] (Can condense Ice Spike for attacks, freeze low-level Strange Monsters, 30% freezing probability).]
[Beauty Score: 95 (Cold and aloof older sister type, Fortunes Blessing bonus increased to 90%! Unlocks exclusive fortune buff: Produces an additional 30 fortune coins daily, Villa arrow tower damage increased by 10%!)]
[Ability: Professor of Biology at Hangzhou University, proficient in Strange Monster genetic research and weakness analysis, can customize targeted attack plans to significantly improve killing efficiency!]
A 95-point cold and aloof older sister type?
90% fortune coin bonus?
30 extra fortune coins daily?
And it can also increase arrow tower damage by 10%?
More importantly, she is proficient in Strange Monster weaknesses and can customize attack plans?
Hearing these talent attributes, Lin Zhou's heart pounded wildly.
If he took in Professor Su Qinghan this time, the fortune coin bonus would be maxed out, and the arrow towers would also become stronger.
Dealing with those 20 Strange Monsters and the elite Iron-Spine Wolf would give them a much greater chance of winning, perhaps even a guaranteed victory!
"Big Boss, you can't open the side door! The side door still has primary-level defense; it will break with one impact!"
Just then, Jiang Wanxing gripped his arm tightly, her tone full of worry, her little face deathly pale, her eye rims slightly red, "Once the army of Strange Monsters arrives, we're done for!"
Having finally found a glimmer of hope for survival, she didn't want to face such a huge crisis again just like that.
"School Beauty Jiang, she is a biology professor, proficient in the weaknesses of Strange Monsters. With her here, we might be able to deal with that elite Iron-Spine Wolf."
"Moreover, if I take her in, my attributes in all aspects can increase to improve the Villa's defense and the level of the arrow towers. If I don't save her, when that wave comes, the Villa... won't last long."
Lin Zhou explained slowly.
"But... what if..."
Hearing these words, Jiang Wanxing hesitated.
But seeing those terrifying Rotten Claw Monsters, she felt afraid again.
"School Beauty Jiang, since you have already bound a contract with me and become my person, you should trust me."
Lin Zhou said slowly.
Jiang Wanxing's pretty face changed slightly:
"I... I'm sorry, I was wrong! Then... then you be careful!"
Thinking that if Lin Zhou had really been so heartless as to ignore her plight earlier, she would have already perished at the hands of the Rotten Claw Monsters!
Therefore, out of this consideration, she shouldn't try to stop Lin Zhou.
[Detected Jiang Wanxing's favorability toward the host increased by five, current favorability is fifty-five.]
[Activated shared talent [Speed Boost] effect, host's speed temporarily increased to 50% of Jiang Wanxing's!]
The system notification sounds rang out one after another, and Lin Zhou felt a sense of lightness all over his body.
His speed was much faster than before, his senses became sharper, and even the surrounding sounds became much clearer.
"System, consume 20 fortune coins to activate the side door's temporary energy shield, duration 5 minutes! Consume 30 fortune coins to upgrade the side door to a primary alloy door!"
[Detected that the host has consumed 50 fortune coins, the side door's temporary energy shield has been activated, and the primary alloy door upgrade is complete!]
[Side door primary alloy door: Defense value 30, can withstand 6 consecutive attacks from low-level Strange Monsters!]
As the system notification sound faded, the Villa's side door was instantly shrouded in a pale blue energy shield.
It was a thin layer, yet it emitted a faint blue light, carrying a mysterious power.
The original wooden side door had turned into a thin alloy door. Although it wasn't as thick or heavy as the main alloy door, it was enough to withstand several attacks from low-level Strange Monsters.
The two Rotten Claw Monsters that pounced over collided with the shield and were instantly sent flying.
They fell to the ground, emitting shrill roars, their bodies twitching a few times on the ground before they slowly climbed back up.
Lin Zhou gripped the basic self-defense military dagger at his waist. He dashed to the side door at top speed, pressed the unlock button, and the alloy door opened a gap just wide enough for one person to pass through, urging Professor Su Qinghan, "Hurry in!"
Professor Su Qinghan was incredibly excited and hurriedly used all her strength to squeeze inside sideways.
The moment she entered, he hurriedly closed the door, and the electronic lock automatically engaged.
Immediately after, the two following Rotten Claw Monsters slammed into the alloy door, making a dull thud.
The alloy door shook slightly but remained sturdy, without the slightest damage.
Having survived the ordeal, Professor Su Qinghan leaned against the cold wall, gasping for air.
"Thank you. My name is Professor Su Qinghan, a professor in the Biology Department at Hangzhou University."
"Lin Zhou! Quickly, let me treat your wound."
Lin Zhou introduced himself casually, then took out a first-aid kit, knelt in front of Professor Su Qinghan, and carefully cleaned her wound.
Although this task could be handed over to Jiang Wanxing, this was an opportunity to increase favorability; how could he waste it?
His gentle and skilled movements made a strange light flash in Professor Su Qinghan's cold eyes, and her cheeks flushed slightly.
Jiang Wanxing stood to the side, watching Lin Zhou treat Professor Su Qinghan's wound, a trace of petty jealousy flashing in her eyes.
Her little mouth pouted slightly, but she still walked forward and handed over a bottle of purified water: "Professor Su, drink some water to replenish your hydration."
Professor Su Qinghan took the water, nodded at Jiang Wanxing, and revealed a polite smile:
"School Beauty Jiang Wanxing of Hangzhou University, I know you!"
"Professor Su, in front of you, how could I dare to call myself a School Beauty? But now, we are all on the same path. And now, if we want to survive, we have to rely on Big Boss Zhou's protection!"
Jiang Wanxing smiled and then said.
"Lin Zhou, what is your attribute?"
Hearing this, Professor Su Qinghan hurriedly asked.
"His attribute is the SSS-rank unique talent, 'More Children, More Blessings'!"
Jiang Wanxing couldn't help but explain.
"What? An SSS-rank unique talent attribute? The skill is actually... 'More Children, More Blessings'?"
For Professor Su Qinghan, who had researched deeply, she understood immediately upon hearing this attribute name.
At that moment, a hint of a blush appeared on her cold, pretty face...
