21: Chapter 21 Attribute Enhancement

"Th-this feeling!" Chen Ze exclaimed involuntarily, his voice trembling slightly.

He slowly raised his arm, watching his muscular, well-defined arm under the sunlight, his heart filled with amazement.

Just by simply clenching his fist, he could feel an unprecedented power gathering in his palm, as if he could easily crush anything before him if he wished.

To verify his strength, Chen Ze went straight to the fourth floor of the Blockhouse, where the heaviest weapon of his Fortress was located—the Type 92 infantry gun.

When he first transmigrated here yesterday, he had tried to move this big guy, but even after exhausting all his efforts, the Type 92 infantry gun hadn't budged an inch.

That thing weighed at least 400 jin!

At that time, he was full of helplessness and could only treat it as a last resort for defense, hoping he would never have to use it.

But now, Chen Ze stood in front of the Type 92 infantry gun again, his eyes full of confidence.

He flexed his wrists, took a deep breath, and then reached out with both hands, firmly gripping the gun body.

Following this, he let out a low shout, his leg muscles exerting force like a giant tree taking root, firmly supporting his body, while his arms exerted a sudden, upward force.

The incredibly heavy Type 92 infantry gun, under Chen Ze's immense strength, actually slowly lifted off the ground.

"Ha! Hahaha! Is this the power that surpasses ninety percent of humanity!"

Chen Ze laughed excitedly.

It was no wonder Chen Ze was so excited; one had to know that the world record for the snatch was only 187 kilograms, which was almost the limit of human capability.

Although he had just lifted it by hugging it, if one were not a professional, it would be absolutely impossible to lift the 400-jin, irregularly shaped Type 92 infantry gun.

This required not only pure strength but also extremely high demands on body coordination and muscle control.

"Looking at it this way, transmigrating to this Fortress survival world is actually not bad for me!"

In his original world, his company had gone bankrupt and he was drowning in debt; Chen Ze could only work day and night without seeing a glimmer of hope for a comeback.

Since transmigrating to this Fortress survival world, although it was fraught with crises, he now held the golden key to his rise.

"Fang Hao, Lin Yuan, you guys had better not die, otherwise it will be hard to quell the hatred in my heart!"

Just then, a faint noise came from the stairs. Chen Ze turned his head and discovered that Wang Yalan had woken up at some unknown time and was leaning on the railing, walking towards him with unsteady steps.

Seeing Chen Ze look over, her expression became flustered for a moment.

"Mr. Chen, I—I didn't mean to eavesdrop on you. I just heard movement upstairs, so..."

"It's fine, it doesn't matter if you heard. Those two people are my former enemies; they caused me to lose everything, and in this life, I must kill them!"

Chen Ze waved his hand, signaling her not to worry, and offered an explanation.

"By the way, how is your injury?"

"Ah? It feels much better. Did you bring me back yesterday? Th—thank you."

Actually, after Wang Yalan woke up, she realized that this must be Chen Ze's Blockhouse, and she still had some impression of Chen Ze taking care of her.

But as soon as she thought about the person in front of her helping her take medicine mouth-to-mouth, Wang Yalan's face instantly flushed slightly, and she felt a wave of shyness in her heart.

She subconsciously turned her head away, not daring to look directly into Chen Ze's eyes, while those somewhat ambiguous scenes kept surfacing in her mind.

Chen Ze didn't think that much; he walked up in a few strides and gently untied the cloth strip wrapped around Wang Yalan's shoulder.

He noticed that the previously ghastly wound had already started to scab, and the surrounding redness and swelling had subsided quite a bit.

"It's recovering well. It seems e-rank purified water really does have some healing effects!"

"e-rank purified water? What is that?"

Wang Yalan's eyes widened slightly, her face full of confusion.

"It's the water I fed you yesterday!"

Chen Ze answered matter-of-factly and continued.

"This thing is a rare commodity at this stage; drinking one liter every day can increase all attributes by one point! Check if your attributes have increased?"

"One liter? You mean you fed me a whole liter?"

It has to be said that the focus of men and women on problems really is different.

Wang Yalan seemed to have completely missed the part about increasing attributes; her mind was entirely occupied by the fact that she had drunk a whole liter of water fed to her mouth-to-mouth by Chen Ze, and the blush on her face instantly deepened, almost spreading to her earlobes.

Chen Ze only realized this belatedly and scratched his head in embarrassment.

"You lost too much blood and passed out in the morning, I had no choice but to do that! Um... can you..."

"Mm, I understand!"

Wang Yalan was flushed, but she hurriedly spoke up.

She looked up and saw Chen Ze's embarrassed appearance, and for a moment, she actually let out a "pfft" of laughter.

The man in front of her, who hadn't shown a shred of hesitation when killing, was decisive and ruthless, yet was now fidgety and uneasy over such a small matter; it was truly interesting.

After Wang Yalan laughed, her mood also relaxed a lot.

"Actually, if we're talking about who lost out, it's you. I'm a married woman; I let a young man like you kiss me just like that!"

Ah? This... this married woman is really something!

Chen Ze sighed inwardly, helpless, and could only cough twice to ease the awkwardness.

"Um, I exchanged for some anti-inflammatory medicine for you from the trading channel; it will help with the wound recovery, so remember to take it on time."

As Chen Ze spoke, he directly handed over the box of Amoxicillin.

Wang Yalan took the medicine and was stunned. Although she didn't know what price Chen Ze had paid to get this medicine, after transmigrating to this different world, medicine must be a precious item.

She couldn't help but compare Chen Ze with Yang Wei. If she were injured, would that bastard Yang Wei spend survival coins to buy her medicine? Absolutely not!

"Thank you!"

"What are you thanking me for? Didn't you sustain this injury blocking a hit for me? It's only right that I take care of you!"

Chen Ze returned to his carefree demeanor, walked to the water purifier, picked up a cup, and gulped down two mouthfuls.

"Ah! This e-rank purified water is really not bad! It's sweet."

After finishing, Chen Ze directly handed the cup to Wang Yalan.

"You should drink some too, it's good for your wound recovery."

Wang Yalan had also looked at the communication channel yesterday and knew that items with such grades were all very valuable.

She hesitated for a moment, took the cup, but did not drink.

Seeing this, Chen Ze did not force her and continued.

"Starting from tonight, you will live in my Blockhouse!"

"Ah?"

Wang Yalan was looking down at the cup, and was suddenly stunned by Chen Ze's words; various thoughts immediately flew through her mind.

"Why did he suddenly let me live here? Doesn't he usually mind others coveting his Blockhouse?"

"Although I really want to live in such a safe shelter, but... but he won't force me to do anything, right?"

She looked up slightly and happened to see Chen Ze's bare upper body; the solid muscle lines were distinct, exuding a wild sense of power, which was like heaven and earth compared to her ex-husband Yang Wei.

"He is so young and so strong; living with him seems... not impossible."

Thinking of this, Wang Yalan swallowed her saliva, pursed her lips, and spoke.

"Mm! I'll listen to you!"
