"I ca in good faith this ti. It seems you still don’t understand just how important that is."
As he spoke, Lin Feng jutted his chin, gesturing toward the small jewelry bag on the table.
Jiang Yun’er’s brow furrowed slightly. She set down her coffee cup and slowly walked over to look at the bag she had been ignoring.
When her gaze landed on the item inside, and she took it out to confirm what it was...
On the part of the black lace shawl that covered her chest were specks of transparent, dried clumps. Jiang Yun’er’s face instantly flushed with sha and indignation.
But when she saw Lin Feng’s faint, mocking smile, a wave of delayed fear washed over her.
’How could I have been so careless? To leave behind such crucial evidence after that wild night!?’
This rather mysterious black lace shawl was entirely handwoven—one of a kind in the whole world.
Paired with her white silk veil, it perfectly accentuated her elegant disposition. It was an ensemble Jiang Yun’er adored, and she often wore it to high-profile galas.
As a result, it was widely recognizable.
If Lin Feng were to make it public, he could destroy the career Jiang Yun’er had spent her entire life building.
"You..."
Seeing the woman staring at him, dumbfounded and pointing, Lin Feng smiled faintly and glanced around at the RV’s chic decor.
He stood up, walked over to a bookshelf, found a few best-selling books of inspirational garbage, and tossed them on the table.
"I need your autograph. For a colleague’s daughter."
Jiang Yun’er swallowed, not daring to refuse. She took the books and a pen and quickly signed the title page of each one.
Seeing her obedient deanor, Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction. Then, his eyes fell upon a pair of exquisite earrings she was wearing.
"Those are nice. Bag them up too."
Jiang Yun’er followed his gaze and touched her ear. She said, looking troubled,
"This is a sponsored product from an international jeweler. A pair is worth several hundred thousand..."
Lin Feng just grunted in response, his displeasure clear.
Jiang Yun’er quickly took off the earrings, placed them in a small box, and put them in the jewelry bag he had brought.
Seeing him nod with a very satisfied expression, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Feng’s nod of satisfaction, however, wasn’t due to the woman’s obedience. It was because his personal data had just appeared before him—the upgrade to LV 17 was complete:
Lin Feng, LV 17/19
Life Value: 130, Physique: 130, Spirit: 130
Although this Upgrade didn’t bring any extra changes, his three Basic Attributes had all reached their cap, aning he only needed one more point to achieve a Breaking Limit.
As long as he maintained this excellent condition until LV 19, his chances of a Breaking Limit would increase dramatically.
Just as Lin Feng was analyzing his upgraded Attributes, a hearty call suddenly rang out from outside the RV:
"Lin Feng! Enough fooling around. Ti for real business!"
Lin Feng tucked the three books and the jewelry bag under his arm and stepped out of the RV. Two military jeeps were parked outside. In the passenger seat of the lead vehicle, Major Cheng Zhan, whom he had t once before, waved at him.
Nearby, Lieutenant Li Ran was standing by the jeep’s door.
Lin Feng walked up and handed the books and jewelry bag to Li Ran.
"Brother Li, do a favor. This is what Brother Qin asked for. Send it to him when you have a chance."
Li Ran took the books and the bag, leaving as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders. While he was also an Awakener, he was only at the Tier One Early Stage. He was no match for the Late Stage elites in the two jeeps.
Major Cheng, in particular, exuded an astonishing aura that made Li Ran feel like he was being stared down by a tiger; he was on pins and needles.
Crucially, the man outranked him and was far more powerful, so he couldn’t just take his leave.
Fortunately, Lin Feng’s tily appearance had saved him.
Once Lieutenant Li was a good distance away, Lin Feng turned back to Cheng Zhan, who was staring at him. He could feel the aura the major was releasing this ti, but now that he had reached LV 17 and the Tier One Late Stage, Lin Feng was naturally unfazed.
This ca as a great surprise to Cheng Zhan, who imdiately realized that Lin Feng had managed to reach the Tier One Late Stage in just two short days. In tis of peace, that kind of speed would have been unimaginable.
’Indeed, the rumors were true. The hidden strength behind this young man, who looked so harmless when he smiled, was unfathomable...’
Cheng Zhan imdiately withdrew his aura, leaned out of the jeep window toward Lin Feng, and said in a low voice,
"Interested in a mission? We’re heading into the heart of the Zerg Race’s territory to find Middle Tier Zergs."
Lin Feng paused, stunned. Though he had expected it, he still feigned a look of complete shock.
Seeing his reaction, a flash of excitent and satisfaction flickered in Cheng Zhan’s eyes.
But then the young man looked back, his eyes landing on the beautiful woman whose face was partially visible inside the RV...
And then... he shook his head.
