A few days later.

"Screech!"

Wang Fan rubbed his lower back and slowly sat up from the bed.

I felt sore all over, as if every bone in my body had been reassembled.

His head was still a little dizzy, and memories flashed through his mind like broken pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.

Erebus's frenzied attacks, the surging killing intent within himself, and the anxious cries of the women...

He shook his head, trying to clear his mind.

Only then did he realize that he was in a cabin on an ironclad ship, with sunlight streaming through the window and warming him.

"What am I doing..." Wang Fan murmured to himself, his thoughts gradually becoming clearer.

He recalled that after his fierce battle with Erebus, he had lost control of his murderous intent and fallen into a coma, but he couldn't remember what happened afterward.

Suddenly, the door was gently pushed open, and Qin Xiaoxuan walked in carrying a steaming bowl of herbal soup.

When she saw Wang Fan wake up, she was stunned at first, then smiled with joy, her eyes glistening with tears: "Wang Fan, you're finally awake!"

Looking at Qin Xiaoxuan, Wang Fan felt a surge of warmth in his heart and said with a smile, "Xiaoxuan, thank you for your hard work. How long have I been unconscious?"

Qin Xiaoxuan walked to the bedside, placed the medicine on the table, and said, "You've been unconscious for three days and three nights. We were so worried about you."

"Here, drink this bowl of medicine first. We put a lot of effort into brewing it according to the recipe Bingmei gave us. It will be good for your recovery."

Wang Fan took the herbal medicine, took a small sip, and felt the bitter taste spread across his tongue.

He frowned, but still finished the medicine in one gulp.

Just then, a commotion arose outside the door.

Immediately afterwards, Xiaomeng, Su Yalin, Hua Nianci, and Su Yaqi rushed in.

"Brother, you're finally awake!" Xiao Meng rushed to Wang Fan's bedside, grabbed his hand tightly, and her face was full of joy.

"Yes, Brother Wang Fan, you really scared us," Su Yalin said with a smile, but a trace of worry still lingered in her eyes.

Hua Nianci and Su Yaqi also gathered around, asking about Wang Fan's health with concern.

Looking at the group of women who cared about him, Wang Fan was deeply moved: "Thank you all. If it weren't for you, I might..."

Qin Xiaoxuan gently patted Wang Fan's shoulder and said, "What are you saying? We're all family, of course we should support each other."

"However, you took too much of a risk this time. You can't do that again."

Wang Fan nodded and said, "I understand."

"But the situation was urgent at the time, and without using all our strength, we would not have been able to defeat Erebus."

"By the way, how is Erebus?"

Su Yaqi interjected, "He's already dead. You took care of him yourself."

"However, you later lost control of your murderous intent and fell into a coma, which worried us terribly."

"Fortunately, Bingmei remembered that you said women could help you reduce your killing intent, so we took turns going in, and finally managed to suppress that killing intent for you."

Wang Fan was startled, realizing that his awakening was entirely due to the efforts of the women.

He looked at them, his eyes filled with gratitude and affection: "You have done so much for me, I really don't know how to repay you."

Xiao Meng smiled and said, "Brother, don't say such formal things. We are family, and family should help each other."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Wang Fan looked at these kind and brave women in front of him.

I secretly vowed to myself that I would work even harder to protect them from any harm in the future.

In this warm atmosphere, the ironclad ship continued its slow journey...

As time passed, the ironclad ship returned to the Snow Soul Ice Nest.

During this period, he was well taken care of by the women.

Wang Fan's body gradually recovered, and his former vitality and strength returned to him.

On this day, Wang Fan sat alone in his room, preparing to observe the changes in his strength.

He calmed himself down and opened his personal system panel.

It was clearly displayed above.

Name: Wang Fan

Level: 10 (/)

Strength: 999 (normal adult strength is 10)

Physical fitness: 999 (normal adult is 10)

Agility: 999 (normal adult is 10)

Mental state: 999 (normal adult level is 10)

Attribute points: 10

Skills: Blood Shadow Halberd Technique, Mountain-Shaking Halberd Technique, Blood Sea Shield, Basic Fork Technique, Basic Combat.

After adding the attribute points, I saw "Tier 10" clearly displayed in the level column on the panel.

Wang Fan was slightly taken aback, then frowned.

Logically, he should have gained a lot of experience after killing Erebus and should have broken through to the tenth level or above.

"Could it be that special conditions are required?" Wang Fan pondered to himself, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

With a shift in his thoughts, Wang Fan turned his attention back to attribute points.

He recalled that after breaking through to the sixth rank, his attribute points had increased significantly.

But now, when his attribute points reached 999, no matter how he tried, he couldn't increase them any further.

Wang Fan fell into deep thought: Was there some connection between breaking through the stagnation of experience points and capping attribute points?

Is it a setting of the system itself, or is there a hidden opportunity that has not yet been discovered?

However, after thinking for a long time, my mind was still a jumbled mess, and I had no clue what to do.

He couldn't help but laugh at himself, thinking, "Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. Anyway, judging from the current world situation, there shouldn't be many people who can be my match."

Although I comforted myself with these thoughts, the flame of my ultimate pursuit of power still burned within me.
