That night, Hunter did not sleep.
By the time he finished his work, it was already past four in the morning.
He glanced at the Killer Wife beside him, who was so tired she had begun to snore softly.
Still feeling unsatisfied, Hunter threw on a robe and left the bedroom and the wooden cabin.
Walking outside the cabin, he looked at the sky, which was beginning to brighten slightly.
He breathed in the incredibly fresh air of the farm.
Hunter couldn't help but stretch, then headed toward another wooden cabin on the farm.
The farm he had recently purchased had a total area of two hundred and ninety-seven acres, which converted to nearly one thousand eight hundred mu in Chinese's units of measurement.
The total area had actually exceeded one square kilometer.
Because this farm contained over one hundred and seventy acres of woodland and only about one hundred and twenty acres of farmland...
...one of the previous owners had built two wooden cabins in different parts of the farm for lodging.
One was located in the farmland area, while the other was over by the woods.
Though called cabins, while both were only single-story buildings...
...each cabin had a kitchen, a bathroom, a living room, and three bedrooms. Including the utility room and garage, each occupied over two hundred square meters.
After all, this was a farm; the one thing it didn't lack was land.
As for the barn and stables, they were located near the center of the farmland.
There was a leveled area there, and some agricultural machinery left by the previous owner was also kept there.
Hunter left the cabin in the farmland area and headed toward the one in the woods.
As for the Killer Wife Jane in the cabin behind him, Hunter didn't mind whether she left after waking up.
If she left, she left; if she stayed, she stayed!
In any case, Hunter knew she would come looking for him again in the future.
"Country roads, take me home. To the place I belong."
Walking along the dirt road within the farm, Hunter hummed one of the few English songs he knew.
Hunter was in a truly excellent mood right now.
Because that Killer Wife had participated in an assassination attempt against him for the third time.
Last night, he had taken his revenge on her quite thoroughly.
Just like last time, but this time Hunter had gone three rounds with her.
From late at night, they had kept at it until past four in the morning.
And the reason Hunter was so certain that the Killer Wife would take the initiative to find him again was based on this.
Thanks to last night's 'revenge,' he had finally leveled up his Reproduction Skill, which had been just a few experience points away from an upgrade.
But to Hunter's surprise!
He had originally thought that for the proficiency system he had obtained...
...the level cap for every triggered skill would be at least LV10.
As it turned out, last night, when the Reproduction Skill level increased...
...it wasn't the 'LV6' Hunter had expected.
Above LV5, the skill had actually reached its maximum level.
This gave Hunter a slight shock.
But following that was nothing but excitement.
After the Reproduction Skill rose from LV5 to LVMax...
...Hunter had gained a full ten free attribute points this time, and the size of his private space had also increased by ten cubic meters.
If it were just that, he wouldn't be this excited.
What made Hunter even more thrilled was that ever since he got the proficiency cheat...
...his lifespan cap, which had appeared on the attribute panel as if it were fixed data and hadn't increased with his strength...
...had finally increased by one point this time after the Reproduction Skill reached LVMax.
Furthermore, after the Reproduction Skill reached LVMax, Hunter discovered it had permanently added a passive skill.
It could subtly alter the mindset of any female he had intimate interactions with, increasing their dependency on and obedience to Hunter.
It was precisely this passive skill that overshadowed Hunter's excitement about the improvements to his strength, private space, and lifespan.
In this life, he hadn't originally thought about getting married.
While Hunter disdained being a mere scumbag, he still wanted to try out what it would be like to be an invincible 'Sea King' playboy.
And now, he was beginning to look down on being a mere Sea King.
"I want to be the Sea God!"
Thinking of the future, with flags of all colors fluttering around him...
...the smile on Hunter's face never faded.
As the first person he had been intimate with after the skill reached max level...
...Hunter was very confident that the Killer Wife would definitely come looking for him again.
Strolling leisurely, he arrived ten minutes later at the wooden cabin located in the farm's wooded area.
Not feeling sleepy at all, Hunter sat down casually on the living room sofa.
Then, he took out the coded briefcase that the people from the Continental Hotel had delivered last night from his private space.
After he entered the code, the briefcase made a sound like air escaping.
The case popped open automatically, revealing the items inside.
There weren't many things in the briefcase, only three items in total.
A laptop, a mobile phone, and a folded piece of paper.
Hunter still remembered the warning from the middle-aged white man who had delivered the items last night.
He knew he only had half an hour to find his answers.
He first picked up the folded paper and saw it written: "Specially customized satellite communication phone. Do not insert a SIM card, or suffer the consequences. It can only dial one unique number; once connected, someone will resolve your concerns. However, you are prohibited from using this phone before becoming a true member of the hotel."
"Specially customized computer. No internet connection required to receive mission assignments via satellite terminal. All functions will be opened to you after completing the trial."
"Some information about the organization has already been stored in the computer."
"You only have half an hour to view it; it will be automatically deleted after that."
"You must not privately copy, retain, or leak any information you see, or suffer the consequences."
Confirming that everything he wanted to know was inside that laptop...
...Hunter picked up the laptop and found it to be quite heavy.
After connecting the battery and power and quickly turning it on...
...the computer screen successfully opened after a brief blue screen of three or four seconds.
Hunter looked closely and saw that the computer screen didn't have the many software icons found on ordinary laptops.
Even icons like 'My Computer' and 'Recycle Bin' were not all there.
On the large desktop, there were only two different icons from left to right.
One icon depicted a building with the words 'Continental Hotel' appearing beneath it.
The other was a text document so ordinary it couldn't be more mundane.
Hunter quickly moved the cursor and clicked open the text document.
The next moment, a file densely packed with writing appeared on the screen.
Hunter's spirits lifted, and he began to read carefully word by word...
