Chapter 61

"Adding these three achievement points, he now has 25, and even more excitingly, his prestige value has increased to 4, and his luck value has reached 3. This means that whatever he does in the future will be easier..."

Li Zhengxi, who had just received the reward from Demon Entertainment, felt very pleased. Moreover, at the beginning of the game, rewards only came once every six months, and they were only for achievement points, usually just 1 or 2 points each time. But now, there were surprises almost every month, and even in the past half month, there had been several consecutive rewards. This also indirectly proved that his accumulation over the past half year was starting to bear fruit, and it was time for a big breakthrough.

Of course, there were joys and worries. Demon Entertainment wasn't a charity; they were always watching him. Besides occasionally giving him dangerous missions that could drive him to the brink, they always found ways to make him spend his earnings as soon as he made a little money.

For example, right now, although he had just received a reward, he needed to get a fit body to handle the swimming pool scene tomorrow. He had already boasted to Yoon Seok-ho about this.

Of course, for this proud guy, he also wanted to look good on TV.

He still activated the Crisis Mode, then opened the advanced options and clicked on the body shape under the appearance section. In an instant, more than a hundred different models appeared in his virtual eyes.

From short and small, tall and large, thin as a rail, fat as a mountain, to all kinds of strange shapes, such as limping, missing an arm, or even alien-like with shells or eight arms and eight legs, there was nothing you couldn't find here.

Li Zhengxi was momentarily dazzled, marveling at how amazing it was. Perhaps when he was bored, he could play with different outfits, especially on Halloween, where the props here would be unbeatable.

After a while, he finally turned his attention to the dozen or so normal body types. These included small, normal human sizes, as well as those as muscular as Arnold Schwarzenegger.

After looking for a while, Li Zhengxi, following the prompts, first compared his height and then finally chose a template similar to Won Bin's, but slightly more muscular.

This was very cheap; even a complete transformation would only cost 10 achievement points, and in Crisis Mode, it would only cost 1 point. However, Li Zhengxi thought 10 points were too expensive.

He only had 25 achievement points in total. Besides, to have a good body, he should exercise himself. Moreover, after two consecutive fights, he felt he should learn some martial arts.

So, he still chose the body shape in Crisis Mode. Out of curiosity and some trepidation, he took off his blue T-shirt before confirming the purchase, looking at his slightly lean but still well-proportioned body.

But this was far from the muscular chest, dazzling abs, and chiseled muscle lines he wanted. So, he wondered what it would feel like to transform, and whether it would be painful.

Thinking about this, he felt a bit nervous. If it hurt too much, he would be in trouble! He considered for about fifteen minutes, remembering that choosing acting skills didn't hurt, and finally, he bit his lip and clicked confirm.

After clicking, for a while, he felt nothing, and his body didn't seem to change under his watchful eyes.

"It can't be ineffective, that would be too disappointing!" Just as Li Zhengxi thought this, he suddenly felt his body getting warm, and then it seemed to be slowly expanding.

At this moment, when he looked down at his body, his eyes widened. His body was visibly "growing," and it was as if a creator's hand was shaping his body, making his chest muscles broad and muscular, his abdomen tightening, and his eight-pack abs becoming prominent. His shoulders, back, buttocks, and limbs were all changing, and in the end, a well-built, sun-kissed, and chiseled body was formed.

There was no pain like in novels where the transmission of skills was excruciating. It was just a bit warm and expanding, and then he had this amazing result. He even felt his body had become much stronger.

Therefore, Li Zhengxi grinned, dancing and jumping with joy. He ran to the large mirror in the room, looking at his body full of masculine charm, flexing his arms, expanding his chest, and making various poses to show off his manly strength.

At this moment, Kim Tae-hee opened the door and walked in. She was stunned for a moment, then blushed, looking at Li Zhengxi, who was only wearing a pair of shorts, showing off. Li Zhengxi didn't notice her and continued to display his masculine charm.

Perhaps because she had seen him naked when they were young, Kim Tae-hee thought, and now, looking at his well-built, masculine body, she couldn't help but blush and feel her heart racing. However, she didn't immediately call out to Li Zhengxi but stood there, her eyes shining, looking at him a few more times.

Unfortunately, Li Zhengxi turned around to check his back muscles, and he saw Kim Tae-hee.

"Ah, you're here!" Li Zhengxi was stunned for a moment, then grinned and made a Popeye pose, proudly showing off his chest and abs, and asked, "How do I look, pretty handsome, right?"

Li Zhengxi didn't feel embarrassed about showing off to Kim Tae-hee; he even had the idea of a man displaying his masculine charm to a woman. However, Kim Tae-hee, at this moment, blushed so much that it looked like she could bleed, and she spat at him, "What are you doing, you crazy guy!"

She had come to discuss the shooting for the next day, or perhaps just to find an excuse to spend time with him. Now, she didn't have the courage to stay, especially when she thought about the possibility of him doing something to her like last time.

She spat at him again and ran away, leaving Li Zhengxi feeling quite depressed for a while.

However, he was even more depressed the next morning when, after being excited all night, he got up to get dressed and found that his T-shirt was no longer suitable.

Actually, he had considered this from the beginning and tried not to add too much muscle, just reducing fat to make the muscle lines more prominent. However, the final result was that he had become a bit bigger.

So, he searched through all his T-shirts and shirts and finally found one that fit, though it was quite tight. Because of his good body, it didn't look bad, but it might seem a bit like he was intentionally showing off.

At least, when he met Son Ye-jin, she looked at him in surprise and said, "Why are you dressed like that?"

Li Zhengxi shrugged helplessly, and his muscles bulged, making it look like the shirt buttons might pop off at any moment. This made Son Ye-jin even more disdainful, and he casually replied, "Don't you think I look manly this way?"

He ignored her various taunts and got into the car to head to the swimming pool.

On the set, Yoon Seok-ho had already prepared for the shooting. Seeing Li Zhengxi, he greeted him naturally, then noticed his appearance and smiled, "You really didn't bluff, your body is... well, at least it looks very handsome!"

If last night was excitement, today, especially after wearing tight clothes for a while, he was already a bit uncomfortable. He even felt like this body wasn't his. Even with a good body, he felt it should be the result of his own efforts, which would be more natural and charming. So, facing Yoon Seok-ho's praise, he could only smile bitterly and half-jokingly said, "I worked hard to get this body for you..."

Of course, having a good physique, like a woman having a good figure, is always something to be praised and proud of. Especially when he took off his shirt and got rid of the tight shirt, and saw the bright eyes of the makeup artists, costume designers, and other women, he immediately forgot his negative emotions.

However, Son Ye-jin still looked down on him, seeing his body, which was only covered by a bathrobe for the scene, and said, "I didn't expect you to be a musclehead, they say guys like you are all idiots..."

Unfortunately, she was looking for trouble without thinking, so Li Zhengxi began to mercilessly tease her, "Yeah, I'm definitely dumber than some college student!"

Seeing her grit her teeth, he leaned in close to her ear and whispered teasingly, "By the way, I accidentally saw you the other day, and today is my compensation. You can look as much as you want, I won't ask for any interest..."

"Ah!" Hearing this, Son Ye-jin blushed, thinking about that day, and was even more furious. She screamed and kicked him in the back of the knee.

Shooting was about to start, and Li Zhengxi was standing by the pool, waiting to jump in. Her kick made him stumble, and he fell into the pool.

The splash made everyone laugh, and Yoon Seok-ho, seeing the perfect moment, clapped his hands and said, "Since our writer Li can't wait, let's start with a take!"

Thus, amidst more laughter, everyone began the day's shooting...
