Online game: Basic attacks increase strength; the greater the power, the more powerful it is!

"All three stages are S-rank?! Are you sure?!"

There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone, followed by Ruan Lingshan's gasp.

"Sure."

"Oh My God……"

Ruan Lingshan murmured, "Just how terrifying must his strength be?"

Ji Yunshang recalled the scene of Jun Heng blasting the Dragon Blood Lizard away with a single punch.

A complex expression flashed across those clear, watery eyes.

"If I were to fight him one-on-one, I estimate my chances of winning wouldn't exceed 30%."

"Thirty percent?!" Ruan Lingshan's voice suddenly rose.

"You have a Dominator-level talent! Could he also be a Dominator-level talent?"

"It should be," Ji Yunshang said calmly.

"But even among the Dominator level, there shouldn't be such an exaggerated gap."

"His talent... is probably even more terrifying than my 'Heavenly Sword'."

"What level is he now? Which starting village is he in? Can we recruit him into our guild?"

Ruan Lingshan asked three questions in a row, her tone full of excitement.

"Newbie Village No. 130562, level... should have reached the level 10 limit."

Ji Yunshang paused for a moment: "As for bringing him into the guild, I asked him, and he refused."

"You refused?" Ruan Lingshan was somewhat surprised.

"Doesn't he know the status of the Ruan and Ji families in Jianghai City?"

"He knows," Ji Yunshang said calmly.

"But he doesn't seem to care."

"interesting……"

Ruan Lingshan's voice held a hint of amusement.

"A strong person who doesn't care about money is either a true hermit or has greater ambitions."

"I prefer the latter," Ji Yunshang said.

"The combat awareness he displayed in the Dragon Trials is unlike that of an ordinary player."

"That grasp of timing and the ability to predict the monster's behavior are more like those of a veteran who has experienced countless life-and-death battles."

"Oh? Now that you mention it, I'm becoming more and more curious about King's Landing."

Ruan Lingshan smiled and asked, "By the way, what does he look like? Is he handsome?"

Ji Yunshang was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

She recalled Jun Heng's angular face, his deep eyes that seemed to see through everything, and his calm and composed demeanor.

"It's alright," she replied briefly.

"Not bad?" Ruan Lingshan's voice carried a mischievous smile.

"For our Miss Ji to say 'it's alright,' that's quite impressive!"

"Don't talk nonsense." Ji Yunshang's tone remained cold, but the tips of her ears turned slightly red.

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore," Ruan Lingshan said with a smile.

"By the way, you just said he's reached the level 10 cap? He should be coming to Dawn City soon, right?"

"Mm," Ji Yunshang replied.

"That's great!" Ruan Lingshan exclaimed excitedly.

"Once he arrives in Dawn City, I'm determined to see for myself just how powerful this player is—the one whose name Miss Ji remembers!"

Ji Yunshang didn't reply, but simply took a sip of tea, and Jun Heng's image reappeared in her mind.

……

Back at my old rented apartment, I started packing my luggage.

It's called luggage, but there's really not much to pack.

A few changes of clothes, some daily necessities, plus two gaming helmets.

Junheng slung a backpack over his shoulder and picked up his suitcase with his other hand.

Just as he picked up his suitcase, he suddenly sensed something was amiss.

It's too light.

This suitcase contains Jiang Mingyue's clothes and some miscellaneous items, weighing at least forty or fifty pounds.

But when he held it in his hand, it felt like he was carrying a bag of cotton.

It's so light you can barely feel its weight.

Jun Heng raised an eyebrow slightly, calmly put down the suitcase, and then picked it up again to test it.

Yes, it is indeed lighter.

However, it's not that the suitcase has become lighter, but rather...

His strength increased.

Jun Heng looked down at his hands and slowly clenched his fists.

He could feel a faint but real power flowing through his body.

He was very familiar with that feeling.

Because in "Alien Descent", he would have this feeling every time his strength increased.

But now, this feeling is appearing in reality.

"Junheng? What's wrong?"

Jiang Mingyue's voice pulled him back to reality from his reverie.

"It's okay." Jun Heng shook his head and easily lifted the suitcase.

"Let's go to our new home."

The two took a taxi back to Emerald Bay.

This time, they checked in directly.

Although Chen Mo was unwilling, the formalities had already been completed, so he couldn't say anything more.

But when they were exchanging keys, his eyes were fixed on Jun Heng, as if he wanted to see right through him.

"Mr. Jun, the final payment is in seven days. I hope you can be there on time."

Chen Mo handed over the keys, his tone carrying a subtle hint of provocation.

"Don't worry." Junheng took the key.

"Not a penny less."

Chen Mo snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Jiang Mingyue watched Chen Mo's departing figure and gently tugged at Jun Heng's sleeve.

"Junheng, I feel like Chen Mo seems to have a lot of issues with you..."

"So what if you have opinions?" Junheng smiled nonchalantly.

"There's nothing he can do to us."

After saying that, he pulled Jiang Mingyue into the villa.

The moment Jiang Mingyue pushed open the door, she was completely stunned.

Although she had already seen it once that morning, her mind was preoccupied with the price and she had no interest in appreciating it.

Standing here now, she truly felt the luxury and exquisiteness of this villa.

Sunlight streamed into the living room through the floor-to-ceiling windows, making the marble floor shine brilliantly.

The crystal chandelier refracts a rainbow of light under the sunlight, making the entire space look like a dream.

"This...this is really our home?"

Jiang Mingyue stood in the center of the living room, looking around, her voice trembling with disbelief.

"Yes, our home."

Junheng walked to her side, his tone calm yet resolute.

"From now on, no one will be able to bully you anymore."

Jiang Mingyue turned around and looked at Jun Heng's angular face.

The sunlight cast a golden outline behind him, making him look as if he had stepped out of a painting.

Her heart skipped a beat.

"You...you shouldn't keep saying things like that."

She turned her head away, pretending to look at the living room decorations, her voice carrying a hint of reproach.

"It seems like...it seems like..."

"What does it look like?"

Jun Heng took a step forward, and the distance between the two suddenly shortened.

The boy's unique masculine aura made her inexplicably uneasy.

"No...it's nothing."

She instinctively took a step back, but accidentally tripped over the sofa leg and fell backward.

"Be careful!"

Jun Heng reacted quickly and grabbed her waist.

His warm palm, pressed against her waist through the thin fabric, sent a burning sensation through her.

Jiang Mingyue froze, her mind going completely blank.
