Chapter 129: Garden of Eden – Legendary

Rover watched a long string of notifications appear before him and let out a breath of relief.

He didn’t rush to check the rewards. Instead, he opened the door and saw the hallway was empty, feeling a faint disappointment.

If the zombies’ corpses were still here, he would have harvested a lot more Omni Points.

Crack!

The door opened. Bardi stepped out, looked at Rover, and spoke in a heavy voice. “Congrats.”

Rover nodded lightly. Feeling a little puzzled, he asked, “That Mecha you controlled was really strong. But why did you give up so easily?”

Bardi replied, “Not enough resources. It was my first time running into soul-type monsters. My Mecha can kill them, but it burns through energy six times faster than normal. So I figured there was no point wasting effort.”

“Besides, even though I dropped out, I still got over 1,000 gold coins from the points I earned. So this round, I still profited a few hundred gold coins.”

Rover smiled. “If you run into trouble, just contact me. I’ll help within what I can.”

Bardi was about to leave, but he suddenly stopped. He turned around, stared at Rover, and grinned. “Same to you.”

After saying that, he headed down the stairs, his figure disappearing at the hallway corner.

Rover let out a sigh, about to say something, when suddenly…

“Master!!!” A familiar voice rang out, followed by a soft body throwing itself at him.

Rover didn’t dodge, letting her crash into him, but…

“ACK!!” Rover felt like a truck had slammed into his body, sending him flying backward.

BAM!

His body smashed into a wall six meters away with a sharp impact sound and then… he blacked out.

Nanoe, Morie, and Monica were so frightened their faces turned pale.

Selina panicked, scrambling up from his chest, anxiously calling, “Master! Master! Don’t die!”

Rover’s consciousness sank into darkness, but before he passed out, he still managed to curse, ’Fuck!’

…

“Uhm!” Rover slowly woke up. His body still ached a bit, but it was much better than before.

“Master…” Selina’s face appeared in his view, full of worry and fear, a few tears still clinging to her eyes.

Rover sighed and said softly, “I’m fine, it’s just… it hurts a little.”

He slowly sat up. Selina hurried to support his back, so gentle it was as if she were holding the most fragile and precious treasure in her hands.

Rover sat on the bed. Suddenly, he thought of something and turned to look at Selina, a trace of scrutiny in his eyes.

At this moment, Selina was a bit more beautiful than before.

Snow-white skin without a single blemish, her body’s curves so perfect they looked like a mathematical formula.

Her blue eyes, like two sapphires holding an entire ocean inside, shimmered as if emitting light while looking at him. Within them was endless love, tenderness, and a madness buried deep.

Her lips, like two shy rose petals, were closed. Even without lipstick, they were plump and smooth, stirring in him the urge to take them into his mouth and taste them.

Most striking of all, the info panel above Selina’s head had changed from the same white as everyone else to purple.

[Selina – Epic-grade Tenant]

’Epic-grade Tenant?’ Rover frowned, sensing something was off.

He looked at Selina and smiled. “Selina, what happened to you out there?”

Selina tilted her head, then sat between his legs and rested her head on his thigh. That gorgeous, adorable face looked like a small, harmless kitten, making anyone who saw her want to pull her into their arms and protect her.

She began telling him everything, from entering the [Destination] space to fighting the zombies in the front yard outside the apartment complex.

She hid nothing, including how, after blacking out the first time, she was taken into a strange space, forced to recall sorrowful memories, and then saw him put a thorny vine leash on her and drag her out of the darkness.

Of course, she skipped over the details of her past and the terrifying things she had been through.

Her narration was utterly indifferent, as if what she was talking about had nothing to do with her.

After listening, waves surged in Rover’s heart, his attention locking onto Death Skeleton.

He didn’t think Death Skeleton was merely an NPC brought by the System. It seemed to have some other role.

Rover asked softly, “You worked hard.”

“No…” Selina shook her head. With her head still on his thigh, her hand reached up to gently caress his chest as she smiled. “Being useful to Master, that’s my happiness.”

Rover stroked her unbelievably beautiful face. His hand slid to her neck, then slipped under her thin top.

“Um… Master…” Selina bit her lip, her face flushing red, but she didn’t resist. Instead, she pushed her chest up so he could feel more.

Rover snorted a laugh and said softly, “Alright. Go outside first. I need to check the rewards.”

Selina pouted in dissatisfaction, but she obediently followed his words.

After Selina left, he still didn’t rush to check the rewards, instead choosing to look into Selina’s information first.

[Selina]

[Role: Tenant]

[Level: 2 | Rank: Epic]

[Loyalty: 100]

[Beauty: 93]

[Physique: 296 (+55) | Spirit: 271 (+15)]

[Lust: 55%]

[Skills:

Description: Possesses 30 years of perfect combat experience with all types of swords (especially foil swords).

[Fusion Progress of the Underworld Angel’s Heart: 17%]

Rover frowned, realizing Selina’s strength had reached an entirely new level, even more terrifying than before.

Her Beauty had risen from 91 to 93, each attribute had directly increased by 200 points, and her daily Omni Point output had jumped to 4,350 points.

Even the skill [Swordsmanship] had evolved from D24 to C24.

And… the Underworld Angel’s Heart… what the hell was that?

Even though Rover didn’t know what it was, with only 17% fusion progress, Selina’s strength was already this terrifying. If she fully fused with it, then… she wouldn’t be much different from a god.

Besides, Death Skeleton had guided Selina toward some place. That place might have unspeakable danger waiting, but it might also be her Fortuitous Encounter.

In just one game round, Selina had suddenly become the core combat power of this room.

Rover also understood why she had knocked him out. With over 200 Physique, it was a miracle he hadn’t broken bones.

He sighed, feeling a little happy because the stronger Selina was, the safer this room became.

However, remembering what she had been through, Rover didn’t want her stepping into such danger again.

He knew Selina had skipped countless details of pain and despair, because she hadn’t realized she already had the Underworld Angel’s Heart.

To obtain that thing, she had likely “died” once already. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have known she possessed something so terrifying.

Rover sighed, then opened the info panel and tapped the reward notification.

[Notification: You received rewards for being the only one to clear this game round and for killing Zombie Angel. You have obtained:

“This medal…” Rover was overjoyed and immediately put the medal into his backpack. Even though he didn’t feel anything directly, he knew the medal’s effect had already taken hold.

A 50% damage increase against zombies for everyone in the room and the defense towers. If this got out, it would drive all Survivors insane.

“System, open the Legendary supply crate.”

Rover checked his backpack, so happy his face split into an excited grin.

“System, draw a special effect.”

[Ding! You have obtained 3 special effects. Please choose 1 of the following 3:

Rover didn’t hesitate at all and immediately chose, “I choose… special effect number 3, Garden of Eden.”
