Where's the cute girl we were promised? She's completely wiped out S-rank dungeons!

She looked up at Qiao Ran in astonishment, her first reaction being that this was unbelievable.

"How can I be sure this wasn't something you faked?"

"Please! This has the official watermarks of the three major guilds printed on it. If you don't believe me, check it on your own game panel; you can see it there too."

Song Yuan opened her game panel, and sure enough, there was a button called "Player Wanted List." After entering it, she quickly found her name:

The post, published five minutes ago by the leaders of three major guilds, offered a bounty of 3 points for her. It also included a detailed description of her personality, appearance, height, and even her main abilities.

After reading it, Song Yuan gave Qiao Ran a disdainful look. She asked:

"Did I just offend some high-ranking figure? What does that have to do with the other two guilds?"

"You mean Wang Daqiang? He holds a pretty high position in the Crystal Guild. But offending him isn't the only reason you're wanted."

Qiao Ran pointed to himself, "Actually, you're just like me. You performed too well in the first game. Newcomers with high scores and outstanding talent usually receive membership invitations from the three major guilds. If they refuse, they will be eliminated."

I've been there. Once you're targeted by the three major guilds, not only will no other guild accept you, but you'll also be hunted down to death by all the players. Oh, especially Wang Daqiang. He probably wants to tear you to pieces right now, doesn't he?

After she finished speaking, she still couldn't resist promoting herself: "So, actually, teaming up with me is totally worth it! It's fun being friends with me, and if you'd like, I can even make you the guild leader~"

Looking at the grinning Qiao Ran, Song Yuan turned off the three electronic arrest warrants and began to seriously consider the feasibility of this matter:

If what Qiao Ran said is true, then in the following dungeons, not only will NPCs and monsters try every means to kill her, but she will also need to be wary of any player she encounters.

Qiao Ran's attitude towards her has been relatively friendly so far. However, the possibility that Qiao Ran is deceiving her and actually trying to frame her for the prize money cannot be ruled out.

Qiao Ran felt uneasy under her gaze and took a step back, hugging herself. "What kind of look is that? Are you doubting me? I genuinely invited you to team up. If you think my sincerity isn't enough..."

She glanced around to make sure no one was on the path before touching the necklace on her chest:

"Let me show you my original skin."

"What?"

Song Yuan didn't understand the sentence for the first second. The next moment, the blonde girl in front of her gradually blurred and lengthened, her hair shortened and darkened, and finally turned into a tall, handsome young man with long legs.

Song Yuan was astonished upon seeing this: "Wasn't that your true form before?"

Qiao Ran shrugged: "After all, my combat power isn't high, and being wanted is too dangerous, so I need to disguise myself."

After his appearance changed, his voice also changed; it became a clear and clean youthful voice.

Song Yuan: "......" No wonder, that blonde beauty just now didn't seem like the type to choose an ID name like "Being handsome is my sin".

Qiao Ran's original skin still looks incredibly good. He wears a red V-neck top, cinched at the waist to accentuate his graceful masculine curves, paired with black suit trousers. A black rope is tied around his neck, with a blue-purple gradient scale hanging from the end.

He had fair skin, and his pupils and hair were a light amber color. However, he wasn't the kind of handsome with a rugged, masculine look; rather, he possessed a delicate, almost fragile, charm. When relaxed, the corners of his mouth naturally turned up, giving him a gentle and approachable appearance.

It's a face that drives both men and women crazy.

Qiao Ran confidently tossed her hair: "How about it? Pretty cool, right? Now, will you agree to team up with me?"

Song Yuan tilted her head: "Why should I agree to your request? Is your true nature something very private?"

Qiao Ran was taken aback by her words, clutching her chest and exclaiming:

"That's going too far!!! You've already seen it, and now you're telling me you don't agree?"

"You asked me to show this, it wasn't me who requested it. This is practically forcing you to buy it, so why should I pay for it?"

"What's wrong? So you mean you'll never agree, no matter what?"

"No,"

Song Yuan gave him an ultimatum:

"Let me check your stats. If they're good, I'll agree. If you're not strong enough, then there's no need for us to waste each other's time."

Most of the information in a player's profile panel will be directly displayed to the viewers in the live stream. Only the weapon, talent, and skills will be hidden—these are also three crucial items.

Good looks can't put food on the table; real talent is the true currency.

Qiao Ran, of course, understood this principle as well, and raised her hands in surrender:

"Alright, alright, you can see it. This is private information. You'll change your mind after you see my weapons and skills."

As he spoke, Qiao Ran displayed his personal panel:

[Player Name: Qiao Ran]

Luck rating: 50 (Average)

[Appearance Rating: 96 (90 billion young men and women are going crazy for you!)]

[Attack Power: 12 (Only the attack power of "I'll punch you in the chest with my little fists")]

Overall Rating: D

After reading it, Song Yuan indeed showed a rather shocked expression:

"So weak."

Qiao Ran's lips twitched—why was this reaction different from what he expected?

"Don't say that. Have you even looked at it carefully?"

"There are people with such weak attack power and agility," Song Yuan looked at Qiao Ran with a hint of pity, "How have you survived this long in the game?"

Qiao Ran chuckled—still from anger:

"Hey lady, your luck stat is still 0.01, okay? Let's not talk about who's better."

"Your intelligence and skills are pretty good," Song Yuan said with a hint of pity. "If used well, they should be very useful in the game."

Qiao Ran: "...Thank you for your compliment."

As a D-level player, he possesses the skills to control A-level players, so teaming up with him... is barely acceptable.

Song Yuan: "I promise to team up with you in the next game."

Qiao Ran clutched her chest in surprise: "Really?"

"But if we're talking about long-term teammates, I still need to consider you." Song Yuan changed the subject, "So, regarding the formation of the guild, it depends on your performance."

Qiao Ran readily agreed: "Sure! Team up with me, you definitely won't be disappointed. Shall we go into the game now?"

"Now?"

Song Yuan didn't expect it to be so fast and shook her head in refusal: "I still have things to take care of in the real world, and I need to go back first."

"Don't worry, the passage of time in the game is different from that in the real world."

Qiao Ran held up one finger: "A day in the game is equivalent to one minute in the real world. In the real world, you were just spacing out for a few minutes."

Furthermore, the system is releasing a new dungeon today, and the points earned from clearing it are three to five times higher than the old dungeons. Of course, if you're worried that the new dungeon will be too difficult...

Song Yuan answered decisively, "No problem, come in."

Qiao Ran: "Great! I love straightforward people."

Learning that game time has a negligible impact on the real world, Song Yuan felt relieved. It was also a good opportunity to test each other's abilities during this dungeon run. If things didn't go well, they could part ways promptly.

The two arrived at the login hall, selected their instance, and then both disappeared simultaneously.
