Chapter 233 Sweep, Return
She sighed in her heart, but only silently picked up the soul stones and soul nourishing bottle on the ground, starting to recover and absorb.
Wisps of black mist emerged from the soul stone, slowly merging into her illusory body.
Her figure solidified slightly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Su Ze stopped her when her basic combat power had almost recovered to around 100.
And took back the soul nourishing bottle.
Moreover, once recovered to this level, the effect of the soul stones became negligible.
Su Ze was also satisfied; this level...
Was enough for her to act as a fighter, yet left her no chance to pose any threat to Su Ze.
"Let's go."
Su Ze didn't give her any more time, turning around and walking out of the Dormitory building.
Gai Qian bit her teeth and could only follow driftingly.
The midnight campus was still shrouded in endless darkness.
The two walked one after the other on the empty road, with Wandering Ghosts nearby occasionally attracted by the aura of the living, roaring as they pounced.
"Deal with them." Su Ze didn't stop his pace, ordering without looking back.
Gai Qian nodded and struck repeatedly.
The Wandering Ghosts didn't even have time to scream before they were killed, turning into wisps of black smoke and dissipating in the air.
Cling-clang.
A small pile of copper coins and one or two soul stones fell to the ground.
Su Ze seemed to have eyes in the back of his head; the copper coin necklace automatically sucked the copper coins away, while he conveniently bent over to pick up the soul stones, throwing them into his backpack without a second glance.
For the rest of the time, Su Ze leisurely took her to sweep through the entire Jinghai University and the building.
Gai Qian became a complete fighter; under Su Ze's command, she continuously cleared wave after wave of Supernatural Entities.
Su Ze, meanwhile, followed leisurely behind like a supervisor, responsible for picking up the loot.
Occasionally he would strike too; a single Soul-Shaking Roar cleared a large area.
All the copper coins and soul stones were collected into his pocket; Gai Qian didn't even have a chance to touch them.
During this, Su Ze also occasionally took out the mirror of surveillance to observe Shi Yetang.
But he found she seemed to be resting, looking completely normal.
Although Su Ze was extremely wary of her, since she wasn't causing trouble for now, he was happy to have some peace.
Time passed.
In the blink of an eye, coupled with the high-energy material detector she had given him, Su Ze obtained quite a few high-quality turret blueprints.
Other supplies were also almost completely swept clean.
By now, a hint of fish-belly white had appeared on the horizon.
It was almost six o'clock.
"Sweep complete, going back."
He dropped those few words indifferently and turned toward the Dormitory building.
Gai Qian felt as if she had been granted a general amnesty and quickly followed.
...
Gai Qian was assigned to Dormitory 402 on the same 4th floor, while Su Ze returned to Dormitory 404.
Upon entering the Dormitory, he saw Yao Qingya sitting at the table as usual, with a row of small bottles in front of her, intently developing the zombie serum.
Her movements were focused, and fine beads of sweat seeped from her forehead.
Liu Qiaofei and Zhuang Xiaoxin were assisting her from the side, coordinating with great tacit understanding.
On the other side, An Lan was standing barefoot in the open space, holding a military dagger and practicing her knife techniques over and over.
Her movements were clean and swift, each swing carrying the sound of breaking wind; her heroic face was covered in sweat, but her eyes were frighteningly focused.
On the sofa, Qiao Yunge had her long legs crossed and was actually holding a thick copy of The Art of War, reading it with great interest, occasionally frowning in thought.
At the very back, Jiang Yuwan, Su Meier, and Li Xinran were sleeping.
Although the Dormitory building was much safer now, Jiang Yuwan still established a strict night watch and rest schedule to ensure everyone got the necessary recovery.
Of course, it was also because there weren't enough beds.
From a practical standpoint, Su Ze still felt there was no great need to place too many beds and take up too much space.
Seeing Su Ze return, the girls who were busy all stopped what they were doing.
An Lan just nodded to Su Ze, while Qiao Yunge excitedly put down her book and came over to give Su Ze a bear hug.
Yao Qingya stopped her work, her voice soft: "Su Ze, are you hungry?"
"Senior Su Ze, you're back!" Liu Qiaofei shouted happily.
"Yeah, no need, I'm not hungry." Su Ze nodded, his gaze sweeping around the room.
Finally, his gaze landed on Zhuang Xiaoxin, who was labeling bottles.
The girl was wearing loose pajamas, her black hair tied in a playful bun, revealing her fair and slender neck.
Her small face was a bit tired from staying up late, but those large eyes were still clear and bright, like a fawn's.
Su Ze suddenly remembered that the Bonds of most girls in the Dormitory had already been activated, except for this seemingly timid and shy little girl.
"Zhuang Xiaoxin."
"Ah? Here!"
Startled at being called, Zhuang Xiaoxin quickly stopped what she was doing, stood up straight, and looked at Su Ze nervously.
"Come out with me for a moment."
Su Ze's tone was very calm.
He remembered that this little cutie's Bond hadn't been activated yet.
Zhuang Xiaoxin was stunned for a moment, feeling somewhat flattered, and quickly nodded: "O-okay."
She obviously didn't think too much, assuming Su Ze had something to instruct her privately; she wiped her hands and trotted after him.
Yao Qingya was startled, a sense of sourness rising in her heart, but she quickly suppressed it.
She was already used to it; it wasn't strange for Su Ze to have another woman.
Liu Qiaofei, on the other hand, realized what was happening, her face flushing red as she watched them walk out of the Dormitory.
As for An Lan, she continued practicing her knife skills, completely unconcerned, while only Qiao Yunge silently cursed Su Ze as a big pervert in her heart...
...
Su Ze led her to an empty Dormitory at the end of the hallway.
Since this Dormitory had no owner, anyone could enter even though the door had been repaired.
But Su Ze had previously ordered that during the recovery period, all players would take turns resting at night, and non-combatants were not allowed to go out at will.
So, there was no need to worry about being disturbed.
Su Ze pushed the door open and walked in first.
Zhuang Xiaoxin followed closely behind, looking around curiously.
But soon, her body suddenly stiffened.
No matter how slow she was, she finally realized what was happening.
The girl's cheeks instantly turned as red as a ripe apple, and even her earlobes became burning hot.
She lowered her head, her hands nervously twisting the corner of her clothes, her heart pounding uncontrollably, as if it were about to jump out of her throat.
Su Ze looked at her shy and bewildered appearance, said nothing, and walked straight toward the single bed in the Dormitory.
Zhuang Xiaoxin looked up, saw Su Ze's actions, and her mind went even more blank.
She bit her lower lip, hesitated for a moment, and finally took small steps, following Su Ze to the bedside with a red face.
