Good Habits

!?

Wen Ya's little face went pale as she stood frozen in place. 520 Official Website

By then, Lin An had already taken off his shirt.

His body was lean and muscular, his abs clearly defined.

Unlike the muscles built through years of working out or deliberate training,

after Awakening and loading the Savior Template, his body had been perfectly enhanced by the System.

His limbs were long, his lines smooth, and his skin translucent like jade.

His taut muscles were not exaggerated, yet they carried a terrifying power within them.

He actually looks pretty good...

The thought inexplicably surfaced in Wen Ya's heart, and she hurriedly snuffed it out.

Her previously relaxed mind instantly became far more vigilant.

What if he tries to force himself on me?

Should I kill myself? Or what?

Her mind was a complete mess.

If her first time were taken by a stranger, given her personality, she would rather end her own life.

Yet she always felt that Lin An carried a special aura that made her unable to resist feeling close to him, dazed by him.

Damn it!

Wen Ya desperately tried to clear her mind.

While Wen Ya was lost in wild thoughts, Lin An suddenly turned around.

"My back."

"Does it have the same pattern?"

The reason Lin An had suddenly taken off his shirt was that he had thought that perhaps he, too, possessed the unique patterns of a Mutant.

He simply had not seen anything on his front.

If such a pattern existed, then he would need to be careful not to expose his identity as a Mutant in the future.

After all, the existence of Mutants was a temptation to everyone.

"Ah...?"

Only after hearing Lin An did Wen Ya snap back to her senses.

Fortunately, Lin An had already turned around, so he could not see the embarrassment written all over her face.

"N-No."

Wen Ya carefully examined him.

There was nothing on Lin An's smooth, inverted-triangle back.

Lin An frowned slightly at her words.

How could there be nothing?

After his rebirth, even before Awakening, his Willpower had already reached 12 points. It could be said that he absolutely met one of the standards for being a Mutant.

Could it be that he was not a Mutant?

Or was the pattern somewhere lower down?

Question after question arose, leaving Lin An somewhat puzzled.

His brow furrowed slightly.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin An ultimately gave up on taking off his pants.

He had only acted on a whim, wanting to see whether he was a Mutant.

Even if he was not, it was no big deal.

After all, being a Mutant did not offer much help to one's strength. Instead, it made one easily coveted by others.

Forget it. He would check again when he was alone later.

"Rustle, rustle."

Lin An decisively gave up on taking off his pants in front of her.

However, Lin An did not know that Wen Ya had been too embarrassed to inspect him closely just now.

At the edge of his pants behind him, a thin dark-purple pattern flashed past.

After putting his shirt back on, Lin An turned around and looked directly at Wen Ya.

"I'll get straight to the point."

"Join my team and serve me."

Wen Ya froze slightly as their eyes met.

Lin An's gaze was calm, yet full of pressure.

Serve him?

Wen Ya hesitated.

She did not mind joining Lin An's team.

He had not laid a hand on her or taken advantage of her vulnerability.

And she had seen Lin An's strength.

After the Doomsday Game began, most people with even a little sense had realized, after seeing the Zombies, that this world might no longer be the world it once was.

As an ordinary person, and a girl at that, she knew very well that she could not even make it off this highway on her own.

But the words "serve me" implied many things.

"What does serving you mean? Or what do you want me to do?"

"Obey all of my commands."

Lin An did not like beating around the bush. He was concise and direct.

Wen Ya lowered her head and crossed her arms in front of herself. Having taken off her shirt, she felt a little cold.

"Everything?"

"Do I have to listen to you in every matter?"

After remaining silent for a moment, she asked softly and cautiously.

Before receiving Lin An's permission, she did not dare put her clothes back on.

Beneath her girlish shyness, she could only barely cover the patch of snowy white before her chest.

"That's right."

Lin An did not pay attention to such details. He merely glanced at the time on his watch, faint impatience showing.

"Can I refuse?"

After hesitating, Wen Ya raised her head.

Anything.

Would that not mean handing even her life and death over to his control?

"You can refuse."

"But you'll die."

Lin An released his killing intent without concealing it in the slightest.

He had saved Wen Ya purely because she was useful to him.

But if she refused to cooperate,

an disobedient Mutant was better off dead.

A Mutant was meant to fight alongside him in battle. He would never allow her to harbor any disloyal intentions.

As for whether Wen Ya might pretend to agree and merely play along,

he had ways to deal with that after she agreed.

There were quite a few items in the Doomsday Game that could forcibly bind a Master-Servant Contract.

As it happened, he knew where one was.

Therefore,

if Wen Ya refused, he would not allow a Mutant to remain beyond his control.

In the Doomsday Game, Players not only had to struggle before Zombies, but could also become enemies with one another at any time.

If Wen Ya joined someone else's team in the future, she might become a source of trouble for him.

Wen Ya felt Lin An's increasingly intense killing intent.

She sighed inwardly.

She could tell that if she refused,

her fate would be the same as those heads shattered across the ground.

Thinking that, she no longer put on the airs of a young girl.

She knew what choice to make between survival and death.

Besides, Lin An was her lifesaver. Other than seeming cold, ruthless, and harsh, he did not appear to have any other problems.

"I agree."

"Then can you tell me now why you insist on having me join?"

"And..."

Wen Ya bit her lip tightly, a trace of pleading in her eyes.

"Can I put my clothes back on first?"

Lin An said nothing. He nodded, then turned around.

Although Wen Ya had a great figure, he had no interest in thinking about such things right now.

A moment later, Wen Ya had put her clothes back on.

However, seeing that her once shoulder-length hair had been chopped short like it had been gnawed by a dog, she could not help but give a bitter smile.

Lin An glanced at her, then led the way ahead.

"Follow me."

"Don't keep your hair that long in the future."

"In battle, long hair will only affect your performance."

Wen Ya pouted, but did not dare respond. She silently tied up her hair instead.

Lin An walked quickly, leaving her no choice but to jog behind him.

What a... cold man.

I wonder what he has been through.

Walking ahead, Lin An ignored Wen Ya's little emotions.

He stared fixedly at the light screen before him.

The instant Wen Ya agreed to join, a light screen had suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Savior Template: Team Function unlocked."
