Jason and the girls had a quick dinner, and it was time for their nightly routine of showering and relaxing.
Outside, the wind howled, the noise drowning out the sounds coming from inside the RV, with only a beam of light piercing the darkness as they drove forward.
Inside the RV.
"Man, this is rough," Jason muttered, lying in bed and holding Chloe, who had fallen asleep from exhaustion.
He'd been pushing the three girls in charge of logistics hard the past two days to earn enough 100 Favor Points, and they had been working non-stop.
Jason brushed a strand of sweaty hair from Chloe's cheek, then checked his Favor Points on the system. He had over 120 now.
Why hadn't David, with his ability to exchange for Attribute Orbs, been able to defeat Feminism in his past life?
There had to be some kind of limitation he didn't know about.
Jason tried to spend 100 Favor Points to exchange for a C-Rank Attribute Orb, and immediately got a notification.
Requirements not met. Unable to exchange for a C-Rank Attribute Orb.
Requirements to exchange for a C-Rank Attribute Orb:
Women with 10 Favor Points: 0/2
Women with 5 Favor Points: 7/4
Seeing the system's response, Jason thought, "I knew it." There really were limitations to exchanging for C-Rank Attribute Orbs.
In his past life, David's progress had been limited by these conditions.
Looking at the requirements, he needed two women with 10 Favor Points and four women with 5 Favor Points to exchange for a C-Rank Attribute Orb.
Right now, among Jason's women, Chloe had the highest Favor Points with 7.
Next were Kira and Joyce with 6 Favor Points.
Then Jenna, Ellie, Tiffany, and Sophie all had 5 Favor Points.
Lily's Favor Points had only increased from 3 to 4 tonight.
It seemed that raising Favor Points before 5 wasn't hard, but raising them after 5 would be difficult.
In Jason's memory, many of the women had started with 5 Favor Points, or had quickly reached 5 even if they hadn't started there.
The real challenge was getting them to 10.
If David from his past life were to hear Jason's thoughts, he would definitely curse him out.
In his past life, David had kidnapped many women, but few of them had even reached 5 Favor Points.
This was mainly because Jason treated the women well and had saved their lives, plus he was handsome, which helped him quickly raise their Favor Points.

After all, what woman wouldn't like a handsome guy who was nice to her and had saved her life?
But Jason hadn't spent enough time with them. For example, Kira had been by his side for less than ten days, including their time in the zombie world.
Not to mention the girls who joined later, their time with him was even shorter, especially since they were all sharing Jason.
So Jason definitely shouldn't complain that their Favor Points hadn't reached 10. To Jason, their Favor Points were already pretty good.
If Jason wanted to exchange for a C-Rank Attribute Orb, he just needed to wait patiently for the women's Favor Points to increase slowly over time. He couldn't be too doting on them just to quickly raise their Favor Points, or it would backfire.
He also couldn't show favoritism to one or two girls, creating a sense of imbalance among them.
Right now, the atmosphere inside the RV was great. The women weren't fighting among themselves because Jason hadn't treated them differently, preventing them from feeling unbalanced.
And their relationships were getting better and better every night, their sisterly bond growing stronger, which was the kind of team atmosphere Jason wanted to see.
Jason couldn't ruin this good team atmosphere just to increase Favor Points.
As he spent more time with the women, their Favor Points would naturally increase.
The requirements to exchange for a C-Rank Attribute Orb weren't that hard to meet.
What worried Jason were the requirements to exchange for B-Rank, A-Rank, and even S-Rank Attribute Orbs. He figured those would require even higher Favor Points from the women.
So raising each woman's Favor Points was important, and Jason also needed to bring more women onto the RV.
After all, exchanging for high-level Attribute Orbs required a lot of Favor Points, and the more women he had, the bigger the team's advantage would be.
Only by nurturing talent in every area could the team survive more easily.
Jason looked at the 120 Favor Points he had in the system. Since his own attributes couldn't be raised, he decided to raise the girls' attributes instead.
Chloe and Joyce had the highest attribute values among the women. Their Spirit attribute had reached D-Rank, and their other attributes were all E-Rank.
Jason wanted to quickly raise their Spirit attribute to D+, so they could maximize their abilities.
Next, Kira had reached E+ in all attributes, and Ellie and Lily still had one or two attributes that hadn't reached E+. As combat personnel, they definitely needed to focus on raising their attributes.
Also, Sophie's acupuncture skills required Spirit and Physique, so she needed Attribute Orbs as well.
And Tiffany hadn't strengthened any of her attributes with Attribute Orbs. She had been working hard these past few days to earn Escape Coins, so she needed to strengthen her attributes.
Looking at it that way, these 120 Favor Points really weren't enough.
Anyway, Jason couldn't raise his own attributes for the time being, so he might as well spend the next period of time strengthening the girls' attributes.
Plus, tomorrow they would be heading to the Extreme Heat World. When the twenty-odd regions merged, there would be hundreds of thousands of people in the chat channel, and Jason would need to exchange a lot of Attribute Orbs for Blueprints and items.
...
Ding! Wind force increased to level 11, wind disaster power increased.
Today is the last day of the Wind Disaster World. We will tally the distance traveled by each vehicle during the three days of the wind disaster. Vehicles that complete the required distance will move to the next world.
Settlement: 8 people in the vehicle, 800 units of gasoline and 26 Escape Coins awarded. (Jason and Chloe at D-Rank, the other six women at E-Rank.)
Whoosh! Strong gusts of wind hit the RV, causing it to shake violently.
In the driver's seat.
Ellie felt the steering wheel slipping out of her hands, her face changing as she quickly tapped the brakes twice to slow down and regain control.
The RV's speed was already only 20 km/h, slower than she could run.
Looking back at the tornado, it was more than twice as large as the previous ones, reaching a terrifying size.
"Ellie, get the speed up to 30 km/h!" Jason's anxious voice came from inside the RV.
The tornado behind the RV was getting closer.
If the RV didn't speed up, it might be sucked into the tornado.
Ellie was startled. Although she couldn't see the tornado approaching the RV, she could tell from Jason's urgent tone. She immediately stepped on the gas.
As the speed increased to 30 km/h, the tornado and the RV maintained a stable distance.
