106: Chapter 106 One-on-Three Tutoring

Xu Zhaozhao's words from a moment ago made the tense atmosphere in the room even more subtle.

She pressed her entire body against him, her warm breath, carrying the scent of a recent bath, puffing against Fang Che's neck and causing a slight ticklish sensation.

Fang Che did not move, looking down at the audacious woman before him.

Xu Zhaozhao met his gaze without fear, her eyes glistening with moisture, filled with blatant provocation and unconcealable amusement.

She leaned in a little closer, her ample chest pressing tightly against Fang Che's arm.

"What's the matter, Teacher Fang, are you afraid to take on this job? We... are very sincere about seeking your guidance."

Outside the door, Jiang Ning's cheeks flushed hot, whether from anger or embarrassment, she couldn't tell. Gritting her teeth, she muttered, "Zhaozhao, don't start acting like a slut right away..."

She truly hadn't expected Xu Zhaozhao to be so direct, creating such a spectacle right from the start.

Chen Keke buried her entire face into Jiang Ning's back, feeling her whole body burning, her heart threatening to leap out of her throat.

Fang Che didn't say a word, reaching out to grab Xu Zhaozhao's arm and pulling her into the room through the crack in the door with a slight tug.

Xu Zhaozhao fell into his embrace, letting out a soft, gentle laugh.

"Come in."

Jiang Ning pulled the still-trembling Chen Keke into the room, and Fang Che shut the door firmly behind them.

The main light in the room was off, with only a dim, yellowish lamp lit by the bedside. The light was extremely faint, just enough to make out each other's general silhouettes.

Xu Zhaozhao broke free from Fang Che's embrace and, without the slightest hesitation, began to undress in front of the other two.

Her movements were bold yet appeared composed.

"I'll go first!"

It was Chen Keke, her small face flushed completely red, as she quickly turned away, not daring to look any longer.

Although Jiang Ning had a straightforward personality, she was stunned by Xu Zhaozhao's unrestrained style, standing there frozen, not knowing how to react.

The temperature in the room began to rise imperceptibly.

With her supple body, Xu Zhaozhao actively clung to Fang Che. Unlike others who passively endured, she appeared at ease, taking the initiative to guide him.

It was unclear how much time had passed when things in the room climbed to the peak, and the system notification finally rang in his mind.

[Creation Agreement activated, non-initial combination detected]

[Basic Reward: All attributes +3 for both parties]

But immediately after, a golden light flashed rapidly across the room.

[Talent: Absolute Critical Hit triggered]

[Critical Hit Multiplier: ×9]

[Final Judgment: All attributes +27 for both Fang Che and Xu Zhaozhao]

A gentle force instantly surged into Xu Zhaozhao's body; she could clearly perceive her strength and speed undergoing real changes.

A smile of both satisfaction and a hint of smugness appeared on Xu Zhaozhao's face, and she even cast a provocative glance at Jiang Ning not far away.

Her voice carried a touch of lazy hoarseness.

"It's your turn... Keke."

Chen Keke slowly turned around. Seeing Xu Zhaozhao's lazy and satisfied appearance, and then looking at Fang Che, whose expression remained calm by the bedside, her internal conflict reached its peak.

Fang Che spoke in a gentle voice.

"Don't be afraid, come here."

Xu Zhaozhao got up and walked over to Chen Keke, instinctively taking her slightly cold small hand.

"Go on, Keke, think about Xinyi... we will definitely be better than her this second time."

She closed her eyes tightly, letting Xu Zhaozhao push her toward the bedside.

Fang Che slowly calmed her excessive nervousness and shyness.

When the second agreement was completely finished, the system notification rang again right on time.

[Basic Reward: All attributes +3]

[Absolute Critical Hit triggered]

[Critical Hit Multiplier: ×6]

[Final Judgment: All attributes +18 for both Fang Che and Chen Keke]

As the power genuinely surged into her body, Chen Keke's initial feelings of shame were slowly and completely replaced by a sense of stability and reassurance.

Without waiting for Fang Che to say anything, Jiang Ning took a few quick steps to the bedside, her eyes filled with an impatient and intense fighting spirit.

"It's my turn!"

She had truly been unable to restrain herself for a long time; after receiving a signal from Fang Che, she eagerly stepped forward to take the position.

Completely different from Xu Zhaozhao's teasing and Chen Keke's reserved shyness, Jiang Ning's movements were filled with a clear sense of power, carrying a wild, direct drive.

Enduring Fang Che's even more powerful and vigorous suppression than before, Jiang Ning's heart was filled with unprecedented, intense anticipation.

Finally, everything climbed smoothly to the peak.

[Ding! Talent: Absolute Critical Hit, triggered!]

[Critical Hit Multiplier: 56 times!]

Jiang Ning could clearly perceive a torrent rushing into her body; based on this exaggerated amount alone, it was definitely a high-multiplier Critical Hit.

Her whole body couldn't stop trembling slightly, and she gritted her teeth tightly, waiting quietly for that familiar power to surge back into her limbs and bones, waiting for that incredibly pleasant system notification.

Time ticked by slowly, one second, two seconds, and even a full five seconds passed.

...

The room fell into an unsettling silence, with only the heavy, unrestrained breathing of the two people remaining.

The expected system notification was long overdue; there was no sound at all, and even that warm current capable of increasing attributes had completely ceased.

The flushed color remaining on Jiang Ning's face was fading at a visible speed, replaced by a gradually emerging look of astonishment and an unnatural paleness.

She suddenly propped herself up with her arms, her chest heaving violently with her rapid breathing, and her voice even carried a hint of a difficult-to-control, noticeable tremor.

"What's going on... where's the system announcement? Why isn't there a notification!"

Fang Che was also deeply furrowing his brow at this moment; he, too, had felt no feedback of any strength increase.

He immediately pulled up his personal panel in his mind; the four-dimensional attribute values on it, after the previous two increases, were completely stuck with no traces of any further change.

Xu Zhaozhao and Chen Keke, who were still savoring the moment nearby, soon also sensed that something was wrong.

The joy that had previously filled their faces completely froze, and they looked at the pale-faced Jiang Ning on the bed with faces full of confusion.

Why were the two of them able to do it after joining later, yet Jiang Ning, who had joined earlier, couldn't?

A terrible thought quickly darted into Fang Che's mind.

Could it be that the Creation Agreement has a strict limit on the number of times it can boost the same target?

Jiang Ning's complexion became increasingly ugly. This wasn't jealousy at all, but an extreme panic that struck deep into her soul—a panic and sense of loss at the thought that she might never be able to become stronger again.

If even she couldn't continue to become stronger in this way, then what would she have to serve as a main force at the next station to stand at the front and protect everyone? Would she... eventually become like those ordinary girls outside whose hands would shake even while holding a weapon, only able to wait for death or be ruthlessly abandoned by the team?

Jiang Ning clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging deep into the soft flesh of her palms. She bit her lower lip hard, saying nothing, yet her strong body still couldn't help but tremble uncontrollably.

Fang Che immediately realized the serious crisis hidden behind this problem. This was by no means just Jiang Ning's personal matter. If the earliest core members like Teacher Qin Bing or Su Qingxue could no longer gain any attribute boosts in the future, then the growth of the entire frontline combat power would fall into a stagnant mire.

On this dangerous Train, stagnant combat power was equivalent to a slow death. He had to find a way to verify this life-threatening conjecture immediately.
