At last, after a long wait and character customization, half an hour passed, and the waiting time was over.
Whoosh—!
More than a hundred beams of intense light lit up across the waiting screens almost simultaneously. This time, it was not the gentle, soft, comforting kind of light, but something violent and scorching, carrying a certain primal vitality.
That light pierced through the entire galaxy, through the void, through the membrane between reality and illusion, and then—
"!!"
Li Haonan felt it.
He did not see it, hear it, or smell it.
He simply felt it.
It was as if he had gained a somewhat unfamiliar "body." It was not his original office-worker body, left in a subhealthy state by endless overtime and technological nastiness, but a brand-new, unfamiliar body filled with power and radiating a certain primal savagery.
His first sensation was strength!
Yes, strength!
His shoulders seemed more than twice as broad as before, and his arms at least several sizes thicker. From head to toe, from his toes to his fingers, every part of him brimmed with incomparable power!
Then came his second sensation: solidity.
Not the heaviness of a "heavy" body, but the solid weight of being "full." His body felt as though it had been forged from steel and stone. Every muscle was taut, every bone as hard as alloy. He clenched his fist, and his knuckles crackled. It felt like smashing boulders barehanded would be no problem at all.
Then came his third sensation—shortness of breath?
That was right!
He could not breathe, as though the air would not enter his lungs.
Then, an uncontrollable primal instinct seeped up from his marrow, urging him to burrow and claw upward with all his strength. He could not stop himself even if he wanted to.
"!!"
