Taking advantage of the three girls leaving, Yuto Saito opened his personal panel.
[Name: Yuto Saito]
[Gender: Male]
[Level: 1]
[Strength: 119 (average for ordinary people is 10)]
[Agility: 59]
[Physique: 56]
[Mental Power: 110]
[Experience: 120]
[Combat Strength: 344]
[Strength Evaluation: 3 stars]
[Talents: Mind Power LV1 (0/100), Super Strength LV1 (0/100), Lightning LV1 (0/100), Freeze LV1 (0/100)]
[Items: 6 White Spars, 1 Copy Card]
With 120 experience points, Yuto Saito could level up. He did so without hesitation.
[Congratulations! The host has leveled up to Level 2.]
[You have gained 20 free attribute points.]
[You have received 2 Copy Cards.]
[Team Mode has been activated.]
Yuto Saito noted that upon reaching Level 2, he received 20 free attribute points and 2 Copy Cards.
Curious, Yuto Saito asked, "System, when I reach Level 3, will I get 30 free attribute points and 3 Resurrection Cards?"
System: "Yes, host."
A smirk played on Yuto Saito's lips—it was exactly as he had guessed. He quickly allocated all his attribute points to his physique.
He opened the character panel again.
[Name: Yuto Saito]
[Gender: Male]
[Level: 2 (0/1000)]
[Strength: 119 (average for ordinary people is 10)]
[Agility: 59]
[Physique: 76]
[Mental Power: 110]
[Experience: 20]
[Combat Strength: 364]
[Strength Evaluation: 3 stars]
[Talents: Mind Power LV1 (0/100), Super Strength LV1 (0/100), Lightning LV1 (0/100), Freeze LV1 (0/100)]
[Items: 6 White Spars, 3 Copy Cards]
The next level required 1,000 experience points. With three Copy Cards on hand, it seemed more efficient to upgrade his talent skills first.
Yuto Saito also noticed that only 4 White Spars were needed to upgrade the floating island.
Curious about the newly activated Team Mode, Yuto Saito read the instructions carefully.
Team Mode: The host can invite others to join the team. Each team member receives a +10 boost to all attributes and shares the experience gained from killing monsters.
For example, if the host invites Member A to join the team and Member A gains 10 experience points for killing zombies, the host also gains 10 experience points. One person kills, and the entire team shares the experience.
(Conditions for joining the team: Females with an appearance rating of 90 or above can join the team when invited by the host. Males with a loyalty rating of 90 or above can join the team when invited by the host.)
Yuto Saito understood quickly, having experience with online games. Teaming up to share experience and boost abilities was standard.
Without hesitation, Yuto Saito invited Ni Shuang, Yun Yun, and Natto to join the team. With them on board, he wouldn't have to fight zombies alone to gain experience. This strategy was both effective and comfortable.
As for inviting boys to the team, Yuto Saito dismissed the idea entirely. The requirement of 90 loyalty was nearly impossible for males to meet.
Just then, the three girls returned. Yuto Saito immediately sent out the invitations.
A virtual notification appeared in front of Ni Shuang, Yun Yun, and Natto.
[Captain Yuto Saito invites you to join the team, granting you a strength boost. Join the team?]
Ni Shuang blinked her pretty eyes at Yuto Saito. "Xiao Tutu, what's this?"
Yuto Saito smiled. "Just click agree!"
"Oh." Without thinking much, Ni Shuang joined the team.
As soon as she joined, she felt a surge of energy coursing through her body.
Natto joined next, and she too felt more energetic and stronger than before.
When Yun Yun joined, she could clearly sense her own improvement.
With four people on the team, each gained a +40 boost to all attributes, totaling 160 attribute points.
Ni Shuang's combat strength increased to 250, earning her a 2-star strength rating.
Yun Yun's combat strength rose to 316, breaking through to a 3-star strength rating.
Even Natto achieved a 1-star strength rating.
After the bonuses, Yuto Saito's combat strength reached 524, catapulting his strength rating to 5 stars!
Yuto Saito was ecstatic—having a system was truly amazing!
He then checked Natto's personal panel.
[Name: Natto]
[Gender: Female]
[Level: 1]
[Strength: 49 (average for ordinary people is 10)]
[Agility: 49]
[Physique: 49]
[Mental Power: 51]
[Combat Strength: 198]
[Strength Evaluation: 1 star]
[Appearance Evaluation: 93]
[Loyalty: 91]
Natto's loyalty had reached 91, which surprised Yuto Saito—it was rising faster than he expected.
At that moment, Natto, feeling full of energy, looked at Yuto Saito curiously. "Yuto Saito, why did you invite me to join the team? I feel so much stronger now!"
Ni Shuang nodded in agreement. "I feel it too."
Yun Yun gazed at Yuto Saito with a sweet smile. "Xiaotu, is this another one of your abilities? Inviting others to join the team for a strength boost?"
Naturally, Yuto Saito couldn't mention the system. He simply responded, "That's right! This is one of my abilities. The more people on the team, the stronger we all become."
Yun Yun blinked her beautiful eyes and asked softly, "Are there any requirements for joining the team?"
Yuto Saito replied, "Of course! Not just anyone can join."
Ni Shuang, curious as ever, asked, "What are the conditions?"
Yuto Saito calmly said, "They have to be pretty, at least as pretty as Natto."
Natto laughed. "So, I'm at the bottom of the scale. Good thing I meet the criteria! I feel like I could take down a cow right now!"
Yuto Saito smiled. "Natto, you could easily take on an ordinary zombie now."
Natto cheered, "That's awesome! Yuto Saito, I love you!"
Saying that, Natto hugged Yuto Saito tightly.
Yuto Saito was caught off guard by the sudden hug. "Don't get too excited."
Natto's face was flushed, but she smiled brightly. "I'm just so happy. Thank you, Brother Saito, for making me feel strong again."
Hearing the conditions for joining the team, Ni Shuang couldn't help but think that there might be a few more "sisters" joining in the near future.
