Chapter 96 Wang Meng Resigns to His Fate, School Beauty Qiao Gets Anxious

"One hundred and one..."

This number was like an invisible thunderclap, exploding in the minds of everyone present, shaking their brains until they felt like they were boiling.

The entire room was so quiet that they could hear each other's heavy breathing and frantic heartbeats.

Everyone looked as if their souls had been sucked out; they stood there with their mouths agape and eyes hollow, completely stunned in place.

"One hundred... and one? Am... am I fucking hallucinating?"

"What kind of joke is this! Is this his individual... attribute?"

"This... this fucking attribute, is it even possible for a human to have?"

Jiang Haiqing's face was as pale as a sheet of paper, his lips trembling, unable to utter a single word.

Previously, he had thought that Su Ze might just have good equipment and good luck.

But now, this number was like an invisible giant hammer, smashing all his luck and unwillingness into pieces.

That wasn't equipment; that wasn't luck.

That was pure, overwhelming strength!

A monster wearing human skin!

Wang Meng, who was slumped on the ground, saw his large frame sway violently, feeling as if everything before his eyes were spinning.

Just a moment ago, he had been smug about his "wait one day" plan.

He had still been fantasizing that the "Best Potential Dormitory Gift Pack" could allow him to make a comeback.

But now, this system announcement was like an incredibly loud slap, striking viciously against his soul.

To hell with a comeback!

To hell with being on equal footing!

In the face of this absolute, unreasonable number "101," his little schemes and his ambition were nothing more than a huge joke!

"Brother Meng... this..."

His subordinates looked at him, their eyes no longer filled with the previous anger and defiance, but only pure fear and confusion.

It felt as if something was stuck in Wang Meng's throat.

He wanted to say something to steady the morale of his troops.

But when he opened his mouth, he found his voice was incredibly dry.

It was over.

Completely over.

All hope, all unwillingness, all fantasies of a comeback... at this moment, had turned into bubbles.

After a long while, Wang Meng seemed to have been drained of all his strength, and he sighed with a heart turned to ash.

Jiang Haiqing leaned over, his voice trembling: "Brother Meng... now... what should we do?"

Wang Meng did not answer immediately.

He stared blankly with unfocused eyes.

After another while, he spoke in a voice that was almost a whisper.

"Let's go find Su Ze."

His subordinates were all stunned.

Wang Meng raised his head, his eyes devoid of any arrogance or ambition, leaving only the weariness of resignation.

"Go and ask... if he is still willing to give us a chance regarding that cooperation he mentioned earlier."

He paused, his voice dropping lower, as if speaking to himself.

"In the future... if possible... let's see if we can follow him."

He had accepted it.

He had completely abandoned the idea of comparing himself to Su Ze.

Compete with such a freak? Fight for supremacy?

That wasn't competing for dominance; that was courting death.

This time, none of his unruly sports students raised any objections.

Everyone remained silent, tacitly accepting this decision.

Meanwhile.

Ten minutes ago, Tenth Floor, Dormitory 100.

"Sister, you have to move to that 404 tomorrow?"

Qiao Yunfeng looked at his sister, who was helping to organize supplies, his face full of reluctance and worry.

"Hmm."

Qiao Yunge nodded absent-mindedly.

In her mind, she was still repeatedly thinking back to that announcement that had resonated throughout the entire building.

【Congratulations to player 'Su Ze' for being the first to reach a cumulative total of ten thousand zombies killed! Obtained unique achievement: Ten Thousand Zombie Slayer!】

Ten thousand...

Unconsciously, an image appeared before her eyes of Su Ze, alone, holding a long spear, slaughtering his way through the zombie horde as if taking a leisurely stroll.

That silhouette, for some reason, caused a strange palpitation in her heart.

"Sister, once you go to Su Ze's place, you must take good care of yourself."

"That's right, Sister Yunge, that Su Ze... although he is powerful, he doesn't look like a good person. You must not let him bully you."

"If he bullies you, just tell us... we will go and fight him... although it seems like... we can't beat him..."

Two cousins also gathered around, their faces full of concern and hesitation.

Qiao Yunge looked at her cousins' concerned faces.

For some reason, the slight reluctance she had felt at the beginning now vanished without a trace.

Becoming that man's tenant... being his woman...

It didn't seem like something impossible to accept?

In fact... she even felt a faint sense of joy and anticipation.

Just as she was letting her imagination run wild, that cold, grand mechanical prompt sound exploded in everyone's minds without any warning!

【Ding! Detected that all dormitories in the Dormitory building are full!】

【Now, beginning the settlement for "Best Potential Dormitory"!】

Qiao Yunge's movements stopped instantly.

Settlement?

Su Ze's Dormitory... was full?!

She stood there stunned, her mind unable to process this.

How could it be full?

Wasn't it agreed that there was one last spot left for her?

【Congratulations to 4th Floor - 404 Dormitory for obtaining the unique 'Best Potential Dormitory' gift pack!】

【Now announcing the basic combat power of all members of the winning Dormitory.】

【tenant · Jiang Yuwan, basic combat power: 28.】

【tenant · Yao Qingya, basic combat power: 27.】

...

【tenant · An Lan, basic combat power: 32.】

An Lan?

This name was like a needle, piercing fiercely into Qiao Yunge's ears.

Who was An Lan?!

Wasn't it supposed to be her?

Why was it An Lan?!

An indescribable panic instantly filled her heart.

Su Ze... changed people?

He didn't want her anymore?

As soon as this thought emerged, Qiao Yunge's face turned deathly pale in an instant.

"Sister! That's great! You don't have to go!"

When Qiao Yunfeng heard this news, he was stunned at first, then became ecstatic.

"Hahaha! Sister, you don't have to go and be a tenant for that big pervert!"

He danced with excitement.

The two cousins and their girlfriends also cheered.

But less than two seconds after laughing, everyone suddenly stopped, realizing something was wrong.

Because they saw... their sister, Qiao Yunge, not only didn't look happy at all, but instead stood there looking as if she had lost her soul, dejected, with her lips trembling slightly.

"Sister... Sister? What's wrong?"

Qiao Yunfeng asked cautiously.

An utterly absurd thought suddenly rose in his heart.

It couldn't be... his sister... it had only been how long... could she really have... fallen for that Su Ze?!

Just then, the last system announcement continued to sound.

【landlord · Su Ze, comprehensive combat power: 101.】

【Dormitory 404 total basic combat power: 240.】

The entire Dormitory 100 fell into a deathly silence.

Qiao Yunfeng and the two cousins were like people under a freezing spell, standing there with their mouths agape, their minds blank.

One hundred... and one?!

Wait, one hundred and one?!

And Qiao Yunge, upon hearing this number, swayed violently.

She finally understood what kind of opportunity she had lost.

She had thought she was being forced, that it was humiliating.

But only at this moment, when this opportunity was snatched away by someone else, did she realize that deep down in her heart, she was actually so eager!

Eager to become a member by that powerful man's side!

Eager to stand under his wings!

But now, it was all too late.

That position had been snatched away by a woman named "An Lan."

No!

Impossible!

A surge of intense unwillingness and grievance welled up in her heart.

Qiao Yunge raised her head abruptly, and those bright, beautiful eyes were instantly bloodshot.

"Sister, you..."

Before Qiao Yunfeng could finish his sentence, he saw Qiao Yunge push him away violently and rush toward the Dormitory door without looking back.

"I'm going to find him and ask him clearly!"
