After scouring the rooms in the dormitory for almost an hour, Leon found over a hundred female students carefully wrapped in fine silk webs until they suffocated.

Only eleven survived until he arrived and freed them. As for the rest, they were sucked dry of their blood and nutrients, becoming egg shells for little spiders to grow from.

Leon had shivered at the sight, and remembered the unconscious girls who were still breathing and resting upstairs.

A light frown crossed his lips.

"I definitely can’t transport them to the field house all by myself."

He sighed, then sat on the ground, resting his back on the wall and placing the black greatsword beside him. That thing was still heavy to carry, so he decided it was time to use his free stat points.

[Observation: A human with mana luck and good skills]

His stats had increased naturally after eradicating the swarm of spiders, and he was seven times stronger than a normal human.

"It still isn’t enough to wield this guy properly."

Shooting the black sword a bitter look, he added twenty stat points into his strength stats, raising it to 99.

Leon gasped as he felt his muscles squirm and newfound strength flood his body.

To balance it out, he raised his stamina and agility to 90 points each, leaving him with 50 free stat points.

"Now, let’s see."

Grabbing the hilt of the greatsword, he rose to his feet and lifted it up.

Although he still felt the weight, it wasn’t as overbearing as it was previously. He could now wield it without straining too much.

Weng!

A casual swing shook the air fiercely, fueling Leon with glee. He could tell that the damage caused by this weapon would definitely not be meager.

Thyra smiled, watching him play with the greatsword like a kid finding a new toy.

’He’s advancing very fast. The apocalypse literally just started yesterday and this guy...’

She couldn’t help but feel expectant about his future. Would he rise to become a higher entity like herself? Or would he perish and be forgotten?

She didn’t know, but she was very curious.

"When you smile like that, I find it hard to believe you’re a demon."

Leon’s comment snapped her out of her thoughts.

"Ah~? It seems you’re finally learning how to rizz up a girl. Hmm, my little baby is growing~"

Her lips curled seductively, and she took a step forward. The slit on her gown revealed her slender and fleshy thigh with pale skin that could make any man salivate.

Leon strained to tear off his gaze from that detail, then quickly changed the topic.

"I should go check on those girls if they’re still unconscious."

Thyra merely giggled, sensing his inner struggle.

"Alright. I’ll wait out here. Don’t do anything bad to those defenseless bunnies, okay?"

Leon didn’t even answer. He just ran upstairs as fast as he could, haunted by Thyra’s giggles.

.........

Selene, Reymond, Samson, and Gwen returned to the field house after taking the necessary drugs from the pharmacy. Although they also wanted to branch the restaurants, there was no one to help them with the load, so they postponed going there.

When they returned, they realized that Leon had gone to the male dormitory and rescued some students, also returning with enough clothes.

However, after setting out to the female dormitory, he hadn’t returned since then.

Gwen’s brows furrowed worriedly. "Could something have happened to him?"

Selene’s eyes narrowed. "If he could reach the male dormitory, then he should have no problems reaching the female dormitory. There is nothing stopping him from returning unless..."

Her gaze darkened, and she involuntarily clenched her fists. If it was really what she was thinking, then she would kill him by herself.

Reymond naturally understood her line of thoughts. He felt conflicted because her guess could be right.

After all, men were lustful creatures by nature.

"Let’s give him some time. He probably encountered some difficulty. Also, it’s too late to go out now. More dangerous creatures would surely come out at night."

Selene nodded and exhaled, though her expression didn’t soften.

She turned to Gwen, handing her the bag of drugs she was carrying.

"You can distribute the drugs for those feeling cold. I’ll be taking a shower now."

Although she was highly resistant to cold because of her ability, she disliked the fact that her clothes were wet and had dried on her.

She was almost disgusted by the faint smell coming from her own body.

Of course, she wasn’t smelling bad. It was just that she valued hygiene very highly and hated wearing a single cloth for two days.

Faintly displeased, she walked away to wash herself at least.

Samson had already gone to rest in a corner where some other lecturers and female university workers were speaking with him.

Gwen and Reymond looked at each other, then began sharing the drugs.

The night paused quietly and darkly in the field house, as the lights were turned off to avoid attracting the attention of mutated beasts.

Fortunately, the electric lamps and bulbs were powered by solar panels and hadn’t been affected by the interrupted power supply.

The next morning, everyone woke up one by one, only to find Reymond pacing around worriedly while Gwen tried to calm him down.

"What’s going on with you brats? Why is he panicking?"

Samson asked in a displeased voice as he was stirred awake by the murmurings.

Gwen turned to him with a worried look. "It’s Selene. She left early this morning."

Samson frowned. "She went out alone? Sigh, that girl is really something else."

He stood up, then walked up to Reymond and patted his shoulder.

"Don’t worry, boy. Your girlfriend will be fine. She must have gone to the female dormitory. Let’s go look for her."

The brown-haired young man froze, looking at Samson with wide eyes.

"G-girlfriend?! No, it’s not like that!"

Samson rolled his eyes and walked past him. "Whatever. Let’s get going."
