Li Ke didn't know just how ridiculously much the addition of a magical variable would boost Rias's strength; he was still that unlucky kid with only eleven times the Power of a normal white-collar worker.
He even thought he had ten times the strength of a normal person, as Rias said...
After all, at the very end, the feeling wasn't very obvious.
Honestly, Rias was too overpowered here.
"But..."
Rias squeezed her palm, the joy on her face disappearing.
"This Power comes at a price."
She looked at her palm. Because she was familiar with contracts, she felt one settle on her the moment she added the skill points.
"The more I use the Power of this world, the less the mark of my original world will become. If the mark of my homeland disappears completely, I will become a being of this world and will never be able to return to my own world, and..."
Rias closed her eyes, sensing things that Li Ke couldn't.
Because she was a Demon familiar with contracts, she clearly sensed the contents of the contract.
"This world is damaged, which has caused it to become the twisted thing it is now, so it is begging for help, begging for a new leader to help restore its integrity. But unfortunately, this world is finished. Countless malice permeates this world, and the Power it originally used to help the humans of this world through their difficulties has all disappeared because of that damage. What we are using is just some wreckage of Power... Moreover, this Power is useless once it leaves this world. Seriously, what a letdown."
After Rias finished speaking, Li Ke and Kelly exchanged glances, because neither of them had similar feelings.
Li Ke thought it was because Rias had become the strongest Dimension Lord, but he thought about it carefully, and he didn't encounter such a feeling when he became a Dimension Lord.
"Is it because of levels?"
Li Ke wasn't sure, but he felt it was because Rias was the strongest person right now.
"So I'm not interested in skill points anymore, because once I fully accept the Power of this world, then I will have to stay here forever. But I can still do quests with you, after all, it's better to be prepared."
Rias said with a smile, and Li Ke, who didn't want to think about these troublesome things, stopped thinking about it and took the three of them to the store to accept and share the quest.
The quest was very simple, so simple that Li Ke didn't even have to take action. The zombies were wiped out by the energetic Rias and Kelly, while he and Lux scavenged the rooms.
Then...
"Hahahaha!! Three black guys!!"
Kelly looked at the three people holding duct tape, a magazine, and a medical kit, and laughed wildly while holding her rocket launcher.
Chapter 26: The Well-behaved Miss Lux
Li Ke's mood improved a lot, because this proved one thing.
It wasn't that he was too unlucky, but that Kelly's luck was too good.
This woman was blessed by luck. Although her background and experience were hard to call lucky, as of now, she was the luckiest of everyone present.
"It's really frustrating that I actually lost to a human in luck."
Rias was also a little surprised. She looked at Kelly, her eyes full of disbelief.
She considered herself to be among the luckiest, but she still couldn't compare to Kelly.
"What a pity."
Rias couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
It was a real pity that such a person couldn't join her peerage. This kind of rule-breaking good luck could bring a lot of good things.
As for superstition or something...
She was a Demon, so what was she talking about superstition for?
"The strong luck that can overwhelm the Gremory clan, Miss Kelly, you must be an important person in your world, right?"
She couldn't help but ask. A guy with such incredible luck couldn't possibly be a nobody in another world.
But Kelly's answer surprised her a lot.
"Of course not, I'm just a small character. No one would care if I was thrown into the crowd. Okay, stop talking nonsense and do the quest quickly!"
Kelly laughed it off, and the four continued to team up to do quests.
Because they were so fast, the eight quests were completed in almost an hour, and after that, they started building fortifications again.
Although Tsunade was gone, Rias could still fly for a short period of time without any problems.
Kelly went to set up some simple protective measures to protect their relatively fragile gate.
Li Ke and Lux began mining.
The mining work was very tedious and boring, but the new forging furnace that Kelly created allowed their efforts to be quickly transformed into results, and the new Workbench recipe that Li Ke obtained could also turn these Steel Ingots into more solid and reliable things.
When Li Ke was adding materials to the furnace, he accidentally saw Lux, who was covered in dust, and couldn't help but think of something.
"We'll be able to leave soon..."
Li Ke looked at Lux. Although he had tried his best not to show his love for her body, Lux still trembled when she saw him.
Not because of Li Ke's gaze, but because of Lux's own thoughts.
Because Lux listened to Rias and didn't add skill point in the Seven Days to Die System, she was consuming her own Power when she swung her tools. Because of this, Li Ke had run back several times before he saw Lux once.
Lux was already a little exhausted, so when she came here, she had some thoughts of resting.
But looking at Li Ke, who was full of energy and only slightly sweating, she couldn't help but think of one thing.
And that was Li Ke...
How many times could he do it in one night?
This was a very realistic question. Even if Lux had never considered such a thing before, it was clear that she had to consider it now.
So, she couldn't help but stutter as she asked.
"Mr. Li Ke, is your body okay? Do you exercise often...?"
Her stammering appearance was very cute, and Li Ke instantly understood the reason why she was trembling.
"Ah? This... although I'm not bragging, these tasks won't tire me out now."
Li Ke tried to speak in a voice that wouldn't make people think of other things.
"As for exercise, that was a long time ago, but this period of life has made my body a lot better."
Li Ke was very sure about this. In this world, he was forced to diet and lose weight, and he exercised all day long. Although he didn't have abs yet, his belly was almost invisible.
If he continued to exercise in this situation, he should soon be able to become a hunk with eight-pack abs.
"I, I see..."
Lux's face turned even redder.
But just as the two of them were about to enter a stage where they had nothing to say, the roar of a motorcycle came from a distance, and before long, Kelly, wearing a jacket and jeans and sunglasses, appeared in front of the two of them.
"Hey, Li Ke, the pond at the gas station was filled with zombies before, and I don't plan to drink it, so come with me, let's get some water. Miss Lux, please help Rias keep watch."
Because Rias sometimes needed to fly to build new steel fortresses, someone needed to help keep watch.
So, Lux agreed without thinking.
"Okay, Miss Kelly."
After Lux finished speaking, she obediently went upstairs, while Kelly gave Li Ke a smile, then took off her sunglasses and used them to lift Li Ke's chin.
"Come on, handsome guy, give me a smile."
Li Ke probably knew what she was going to do.
Chapter 27: Kelly's Turn
The water in this world was very interesting. Li Ke filled several buckets and found that this thing had something in common with the water in Minecraft.
When he used the System's bucket to fill a bucket of water and poured it on the ground, a water block appeared.
Then, this water block produced countless amounts of water.
It wasn't that it flowed directly, but that any water pipe, or container, could take water from it, and...
That blob of jelly-like water wouldn't decrease at all!
"This is really weird."
Kelly looked at this thing speechlessly and scratched her head. Although there were many incredible things in this world, she couldn't help but marvel every time she saw them.
"But this makes it easier for us. We only need to fetch a few buckets of water back."
Li Ke looked at the constantly flowing river. If it weren't for the fact that there were no invincible walls here, and the danger of the foundation being dug through, which would instantly destroy the System framework that served as the solid skeleton, he would probably try to build a house here and use the water to solve the zombie problem.
But unfortunately, this couldn't be done, and although there was an endless source of water, building such a cycle there would undoubtedly be courting death.
"What a pity."
Li Ke sighed, and then he saw that Kelly had already unbuttoned her jacket, and took out a whole set of bedding and put it aside, and even put a few System blocks by the river.
Li Ke instantly perked up, because when Kelly took off her socks, he saw Kelly's delicate soles.
This was very magical. Logically speaking, a woman like Kelly wouldn't have particularly beautiful feet.
The reason was very simple.
She had to constantly move, constantly run, plus the harsh conditions of the battlefield, let alone washing her feet, taking a bath was a luxury.
So Li Ke never expected Kelly's feet to be particularly beautiful, as long as those long legs were still beautiful.
But Kelly showed off a pair of beautiful soles.
Although not as petite as Eriina's, they were still very delicate relative to Kelly's height.
Pink toes plus a beautiful shape, elegant curves, and just the right distribution.
It was as beautiful as a work of art carved, especially when Kelly stretched out her foot to test the water temperature, she subconsciously curled up her toes, adding three points of cuteness and playfulness to this heroic big sister.
"Is this also the difference between different worlds?"
Li Ke couldn't help but want to pinch those cute soles, but he knew that he couldn't go over until Kelly extended an invitation.
So, he prepared to leave here and wash his body as well.
After all, Kelly had been so obvious.
It wouldn't be polite if he didn't wash his body.
However, just as he turned around, Kelly suddenly spoke.
"Where are you going?"
Kelly turned her head, taking off her jacket and placing it on the wooden frame. While asking Li Ke this question, she also began to unbutton her jeans, exposing her full hips and straight, long legs to the air.
Kelly's height was considered tall, a standard 1.8 meters.
But the most important thing was her legs.
Kelly's legs were proportionally longer than those of Earthlings, but they were quite beautiful and slender.
However, Kelly's thighs weren't the very skinny type; instead, they were unusually full, clearly having been exercised.
However, they didn't feel bloated. To be precise, they were still considered 'thin' in the eyes of Earthlings. It was just that compared to the slender and tall physique characteristic of the people of the Celestial Realm, Kelly's legs seemed a bit 'thick'.
Feeling Li Ke's gaze, Kelly couldn't help but feel a burst of shyness, even though she had been prepared for it.
Because she felt her legs were too thick, after all, she was someone who lived in the lawless zone. No matter how naturally beautiful she was, she would change under the ravages of the battlefield.
Kelly had once envied the life of a lady, just supporting her husband and raising children, dressing herself up beautifully.
But unfortunately, she felt she wasn't suited for that kind of life, and after thinking about it carefully, she also felt that this kind of life was very boring.
Perhaps one day she would be tired of adventure, or when she had to worry about making a living, she would stay in one place.
Kelly thought this way, but didn't pull down her underwear herself, because Li Ke had already come over.
Li Ke's hands directly embraced Kelly's slender waist, stroking her abs and other places, making Kelly feel ticklish and unable to help but laugh.
"Well, I want to find a place to take a bath."
Li Ke's answer made Kelly chuckle.
"And now?"
"Of course, it would be more fun to take a bath with you."
