Ella lifted her chin with pride. “Ms. Robin said I’m the housekeeper of Shangri–La now!”

“The housekeeper?!” Dane stared at her in disbelief.

“Are you sure she doesn’t have some other plan? First she’s nice to you, then when you let your guard down, she might—”

“Hey! Can you stop thinking like that?” Ella puffed out her cheeks, clearly annoyed.

“You should feel lucky we met someone as kind as Ms. Robin. She even agreed to let you come inside!”

Before the two men could react, Ella carefully lifted the unconscious Henry onto her back. “Come on. Hurry up. Don’t stand around round,” she said. “I still need to give Princess Ruby a bath.”

Thanks to the strength she had gained from Hercules, carrying a grown man felt easy for her. Ella ran forward without trouble. Tim and Dane barely had time to think. They could only hurry after her, confused and stunned as they followed her inside.

Along the way, the shock never stopped.

Was this really the same villa they remembered? Everything looked completely different.

After Henry was placed on the bed, Tim and Dane were still too stunned to speak. They stood there for a long time before their minds slowly caught up.

More than anything, they wanted to know what kind of person Robin really was.

After settling Henry, Ella placed the medical kit beside the bed and gave a few quick instructions. Then she rushed out again without stopping. She still had to run hot water for Ruby’s bath. Soon the room was quiet. Only Tim, Dane, and the unconscious Henry remained.

Tim opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but no words came out. He and Dane simply looked at each other.

They had attended many big events and seen all kinds of situations before. But here, strangely enough, they both felt a little nervous.

“Let’s treat his wounds,” Dane finally said, picking up the medical kit.

Tim nodded silently.

At the same time, in the backyard.

Robin was carefully watering a small plant. Suddenly, a soft chime rang inside her mind.

“Beep–Detected 4 outsiders. System Shop activated. Points: 0. Points contributed by outsiders:

0.”

Robin paused.

System shop? Points? What is that?

Her eyes sparkled. These two terms had never appeared before. After having the system for so many days, she had already learned one thing, anything from the system was always top quality.

Something new and powerful was coming.

Just as the thought crossed her mind, a machine suddenly appeared in front of her. It looked like a vending machine.

Robin studied it carefully. The machine was divided into many small compartments. Right now, only the first three slots had items. All the other spaces showed the same message: Locked.

The first two slots were labeled “Purification Pill” and “Revival Pill.” The third slot held a cloud of gray mist. Beneath it was one simple word: Unknown.

“What’s this?”

As Robin focused on the items, descriptions appeared in her mind.

The Purification Pill, just as the name suggested, could improve a person’s body. It made them healthier and stronger for 200 points.

Then she looked at the Revival Pill.

Robin’s eyes widened. She couldn’t stop herself from reading it out loud. “As long as the injured person is alive, this pill can bring them back to life.”

She sucked in a sharp breath.

Wait, is this the magic pill you see in movies? The kind that could pull someone back from death itself?

The system really did only produce amazing things.

Robin felt thrilled.

But good items came with a high price. When she looked closer, she froze. The Revival Pill costs 5,000 points.

As for the mysterious gray mist in the third slot–it required even more. 10,000 points.

Robin had no idea what the “Unknown” item was, but she was already curious about it.

“How do I even get these points?” she asked.

The system answered simply. “Kill zombies.”
