Chloe, following Jason's instructions, haggled and traded two wooden spears for a disguise mask.

  The disguise mask was useful, in a way.

  But it didn't enhance combat abilities.

  For some, two wooden spears were more practical.

  For Jason, however, the disguise mask hid his true identity.

  Jason didn't want to attract everyone's attention just yet.

  He just wanted to lay low, secretly develop, and collect as many virgins, blueprints, and resources as possible.

  The disguise mask perfectly concealed his identity.

  It would be perfect for wearing on the bus tomorrow.

  After exchanging the mask, Chloe continued trading wooden spears for supplies.

  Besides Escape Coins, Chloe also acquired a lot of food.

  Things like bread, cookies, ramen, hot dogs, bottled water, and a whole bunch more, all piled up in the corner of the RV.

  This was something Jason specifically told her to do.

  Stocking up on food now was the right move.

  As the saying goes, a full pantry brings peace of mind.

  Then, a private message sent a shock through Chloe, making her eyes redden.

  “Ah! Hubby, my… my girlfriend contacted me!” Chloe exclaimed excitedly.

  Jason was completely baffled.

  What the heck?

  Your girlfriend?

  Jason thought he'd misheard, but Chloe was already engrossed in her chat.

  Jason wanted to ask for clarification but hesitated to interrupt.

  He realized Chloe had encountered someone she knew.

  It wasn't an unlikely scenario.

  If you were with someone before entering the Escape World, there was a high chance of landing in the same area.

  Like Jason and Sarah.

  Sarah had been breaking up with Jason when they unexpectedly arrived in the same area.

  After a while...

  Chloe stopped chatting and looked at Jason with a pitiful expression, as if she needed something.

  Jason seized the opportunity to inquire about the situation. After hearing Chloe's explanation, he finally understood.

  Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

  It turned out Chloe was a lesbian.

  Before entering the Escape World, Chloe had been on a date with her girlfriend, Sophie Wilson, and then they both arrived in the same area—though not together like Jason and Sarah.

  Neither woman knew the other was in the same area.

  It wasn't until Chloe was selling wooden spears in the channel that Sophie recognized her and immediately contacted her.

  “Hubby~, can you get Sophie to the RV? She's too dangerous on the bus.”

  Chloe suddenly clung to Jason’s arm, acting cute.

  Jason was somewhat taken aback by Chloe's sudden display of affection.

  Chloe was a stunning beauty, and her cuteness almost made Jason agree to anything.

  “Ahem…” Jason coughed, trying to maintain his composure, and asked, "Uh… is…Sophie a virgin?"

  Chloe’s smile faltered.

  She almost wanted to beat Jason up.

  However, Chloe understood the RV's capabilities and knew Jason's motives.

  It was better to bring Sophie to the RV and enjoy it together than leave her on the dangerous bus.

  “Of course she’s a virgin, my Sophie has never been with any men, women aside.”

  Chloe said confidently.

  Apart from her, no one had ever touched Sophie.

  Too bad she would be leaving Sophie to Jason soon.

  After receiving Chloe’s assurance, Jason asked another concerned question.

  “Chloe, is Sophie pretty?”

  Chloe rolled her eyes and opened her system to show Jason a picture of Sophie.

  Jason gave a thumbs-up after a glance.

  She was a beauty.

  A cute, princess-like beauty.

  Her looks were definitely on par with Chloe's.

  Jason looked at Chloe and asked, “I’m okay with it. Is Sophie willing to come with me?”

  Chloe patted her chest confidently: “I’ll persuade her, but I don’t know how to get her from the bus to the RV.”

  “If we wait too long, I’m worried about Sophie’s safety. I heard she’s been harassed by some men on the bus.”

  Jason frowned, unable to ignore Sophie’s situation.

  “Chloe, tell Sophie about me first, ask if she’s willing to come with me.”

  “I can give Sophie some Attribute Orbs to boost her strength.”

  “Then tomorrow, I’ll go to a few buses and see if I can find Sophie…”

  Jason explained his method of finding people on buses.

  Chloe was overjoyed and immediately contacted Sophie.

  Jason waited.

  After a while, Chloe seemed to have told Sophie a lot.

  “Hubby, Sophie wants to chat with you. Add her as a friend.”

  Jason nodded and opened his system.

  Soon, Sophie’s friend request appeared.

  After adding each other, Sophie immediately sent a message:

  “Uh, did you… you know… Chloe?”

  Jason knew exactly what Sophie meant and replied:

  “Chloe probably told you everything, why ask me again?”

  “All I can tell you is that Chloe is doing well, or she wouldn’t have sent you to me.”

  “So? Are you willing to come to my RV?”

  Sophie was silent for a moment before replying:

  “Yeah, I trust Chloe.”

  Jason nodded in satisfaction and used Favor Points to give Sophie six Attribute Orbs.

  “Sophie, absorb these six Attribute Orbs, then enhance your Strength to E+ Rank. That way, you'll be able to protect yourself on the bus.”

  “Thanks, Jason.” Sophie replied.

  On a certain bus…

  Sophie, dressed in a white dress like a princess, secretly absorbed the Attribute Orbs.

  Then she opened her system and enhanced her Strength to E+ Rank.

  After that, Sophie opened Jason’s profile, seeing the handsome man, her face flushed slightly.

  He’s so handsome…

  Sophie subconsciously clenched her legs, various unsavory images flashing through her mind.

  She wondered if she could last two hours.

  She didn't want to get herself killed; she didn't have Chloe's stamina.

  Sophie felt both excited and nervous about going to Jason's RV.

  There was also a little worry.

  But those were things to consider later.

  For now, Sophie had to wait for Jason to pick her up. All she needed to do was protect herself.

  There were quite a few men on this bus eyeing her.

  On the other hand…

  After giving Sophie six Attribute Orbs, Jason looked at his remaining 1 Favor Point and felt a headache coming on.

  This Favor Point thing is way too slow.

  No, I need to get more.

  So Jason turned his attention back to Chloe, selling her wooden spears.

  How can I get more Favor Points from Chloe?

  [A friend has sent you an item. Do you wish to receive it?]

  A system prompt suddenly interrupted Jason’s thoughts.

  What’s going on?

  Someone sent me something?

  Jason checked his system and found that it was Lily Young who had sent him blueprints.
