After a picnic on Gaia Star, an area known for its stunning scenery, mild climate, and abundance of rare treasures, Wang Zhifan noticed his agility and Spirit attributes increased, gaining 2 points and 3 points respectively.
He was particularly delighted that his long-stagnant Spirit attribute had improved once more, especially since his profession as a blade master hadn’t boosted his Spirit attribute from leveling up until now.
Additionally, the two charming maids who had always stayed in the East City Lodge and the Deceit Realm had a great ti here. With the vast and boundless environnt, they freely expressed their nature, running around, while casually grabbing novel ocean creatures to munch on, making Wang Zhifan consider bringing them here more often in the future.
In contrast, the naturally fleet-footed Red Deer Horse was quite lethargic and quiet, spending most of its ti resting in the shade on the beach, occasionally nibbling on fruits it had never tasted, enjoying a leisurely ti.
After the cookout, Wang Zhifan didn’t rush back to the real world but let them play freely while he began practicing the Wind and Thunder Heaven-Treading Skill.
"Raise winds and thunder from the flat ground!"
With a sudden clear call, he darted like an arrow across the beach towards the vast golden ocean, treading air without touching the surface, gradually reaching nearly a hundred ters high in the sky.
However, this height was about his current limit. Without any objects to leverage, Wang Zhifan’s skill level in the Wind and Thunder Heaven-Treading Skill was insufficient to support further ascent, and his body began to fall downward.
Wang Zhifan didn’t mind this seemingly disheartening situation. He didn’t forcefully exert himself to prevent the fall but instead adapted to it, changing his stepping technique and deftly turning his air-stepping descent into a wave-riding movent.
Running on the water was much easier than treading air. After a few seconds of adjustnt, he rose from the water again, practicing his sky traversal with progress on each iteration, gradually achieving so small yet solid improvents.
Several hours later, feeling his stamina starting to drain, Wang Zhifan returned through the vast sky to the beach, taking his playfully satisfied maids and horse from this world; he himself returned to the second-floor bedroom of the villa, ready to bathe and continue practicing in the Profound Mysterious Secret Mansion.
But before entering the bathroom, Wang Zhifan suddenly heard several notification sounds from his phone. Opening the screen, he noticed several new ssages and three missed calls.
"Chu Wei, Chen Ming, Chen Can all called ? Did sothing happen?"
Wang Zhifan imdiately felt a bit strange. While he regularly exchanged a few words with these friends over the phone during idle tis, he couldn’t recall any important plans for today.
Without much thought, he dialed Chu Wei’s number first.
The call connected quickly, and amidst the background noise, he heard urgent discussions, gunfire sounds, and angry growls from unknown creatures, suggesting a sowhat chaotic scene.
"Fan! There are several troubleso Gray Realm monsters in the suburbs now! The managent bureau is having trouble dealing with them! Can you spare so ti to help?"
Before Wang Zhifan could ask about Chu Wei’s situation, her slightly anxious voice relayed the general situation.
"What kind of monsters are they exactly?"
Wang Zhifan didn’t respond directly but calmly asked for more detailed information.
"They’re several large physical-type monsters! Their defense and recovery are strong! Even bombs can’t kill them! They’re hard to control! Our team has spent quite so ti and still can’t eliminate them! Oh no! I have to control my baby to top them off! If you’re coming, head straight to Unity Road..."
Chu Wei hurriedly explained over the phone but abruptly hung up to join the battle, leaving Wang Zhifan with a rough address.
"Is Dongjiang City experiencing a Gray Realm disturbance again? But it’s a bit ridiculous if even the managent bureau can’t handle these monsters..."
Ending the call, a hint of doubt appeared on Wang Zhifan’s face as he muttered to himself.
Since he stopped working temporary jobs at the managent bureau, his encounters with the Gray Realm have been fairly limited, mainly learning about its frequent appearances through communications with Chu Wei. The bureau has relied on expanding the official player base to manage the clearing pressure.
Thus, hearing that the bureau couldn’t handle the creatures in the suburbs felt odd. In his perception, Xia Country’s largest player organization should be strong enough not to be troubled by so Gray Realm riffraff.
Thinking briefly, he decided to take a look, considering the incidents were happening in Dongjiang City where he lived. Allowing situations to develop negatively wouldn’t be good.
"Rush there directly using the Wind and Thunder Heaven-Treading Skill? Or ride the Red Deer Horse? Or drive a car?"
He hesitated slightly over the ans of travel, mainly reluctant to showcase too much of his capability before the managent bureau. Even though he was no longer as wary of the bureau as before, fewer complications were always better.
"Driving it is, my luxury BMW car has been gathering dust in the garage for quite a while now."
