Moss’s points rapidly increased as he continued completing more missions. Although he could not repeat his astonishing feat of breaking three records consecutively, he would occasionally break records twice in a row.

That was because the missions he accepted became increasingly difficult. It was also because he no longer accepted mount-related missions.

However, Moss had obtained 9,876 points in just a month and a half. It allowed him to rank first among the many rankings in Buried City.

“He jumped to the top of the leaderboard!”

“He ranked first!”

“He’s first in the attention rankings!”

“He’s first in the monthly points increase rankings!”

Moss also squeezed into the top 500 in the total point rankings. As his points continued increasing, his membership level also climbed. He had become a gold member from the initial bronze and silver membership levels.

The results caused Name Stolen’s reputation to spread throughout Buried City. After the beginner missions, Moss listened to the older man’s suggestions and wore a mask.

Therefore, many did not know what he truly looked like, let alone where he came from. Therefore, the members liked discussing this matter after dinner.

“I think Name Stolen is a professional from an influential family. He came to Buried City just to prove his strength.

“He must be a steady middle-aged man, judging from his deep voice and calm appearance.”

“Don’t you think he’s having too much of an easy time completing his missions? I suspect he must have a relationship with the City Lord!

In short, these were the recurring opinions and discussions.

Moss never paid attention to these things, even though he was at the center of everyone’s attention. During that time, he still focused on his missions while paying attention to news of the spatial anomalies and abnormal Magical Beast sightings.

Moss was racing against time because he was getting closer to evolving into Super Paladin. At this moment, his experience had reached 471 points and unlocked the five-star Red Flame Holy Sword.

He had collected all eight types of crystals he needed in the past month of doing resource-related missions.

Through his previous experiences in the weapon upgrade missions, he tried his best to choose crystals one or two grades higher than the Unlimited Evolution System requested.

He also traded items with Gunther to receive two more barrels of Raging Fire Oil. The upgrade process also went smoothly with Owen’s superb blacksmithing skills, creating the five-star Red Flame Holy Sword.

As for unlocking advanced achievements, Moss combined his previous experiences with his past experiences.

He also thought he could unlock an advanced achievement by becoming a Buried City diamond member.

He was getting closer to his goal of evolving his profession, which excited him. On the other hand, Moss also felt a strong sense of urgency.

Firstly, summer vacation was almost over. Considering his experience points over the past week, the speed at which he gathered experience started slowing down.

Secondly, news of spatial anomalies and abnormal Magical Beast sightings had become more frequent. It made Moss even more eager to improve himself.

Moss prepared himself for the inevitable significant changes. Therefore, he thought it was time to accept a massive mission.

He removed his membership card from his pocket, opened the mission list, and looked at it. When he scrolled to the bottom, he found a line of notifications under a mission called “king of the land.”

“You can obtain diamond membership by completing this mission alone.”

‘Diamond membership?!’ Moss could not help but smile, his eyes sparkling.

Diamond membership was the highest level of membership in Buried City. It was two levels higher than the gold membership he was on. It went from gold to platinum and then to diamond.

Under normal circumstances, the minimum requirement for getting platinum memberships was to gain 15,000 points in total. Still, it was tougher to become a diamond member.

Diamond membership was an annual upgrade. When a member earns more than 20,000 points, they will automatically become a diamond member for a year.

If one earned another 20,000 points in the following year, it would renew one’s diamond status. Otherwise, one would return to being a platinum member. However, earning 20,000 points a year was no easy task.

For example, one’s mission completion value would be in the top 200 if one completed a level 5 mission every time. One would earn 108 points.

Hence, one would need to spend the entire year completing level 5 missions every two days without rest. Even so, one could only earn 19,440 points by the year’s end.

On top of that, one could only gain more than 20,000 points and become a diamond member if one added other rewards or completed a more challenging mission.

Even so, one could only be a diamond member for a year. Still, all citizens of Buried City dreamed of becoming diamond members because they could enjoy high-quality resources and honorable treatment given by the City Lord.

“After becoming a diamond member, I should be able to unlock advanced achievements,” Moss muttered as he looked at the mission on his membership card.

Although he was the only one who ranked first in the elite training program, becoming a diamond member was entirely different from that.

Ranking first in the elite training program allowed Moss to unlock the intermediate achievement, so obtaining diamond status would be an advanced achievement.

A ripple arose in Moss’s heart when he thought about how he could evolve his profession soon. He looked at the “king of the land” mission again and firmly clicked on it.

After carefully reading the mission introduction, Moss frowned as his expression turned grim. “This is the only way I can become a diamond member and evolve my profession.”

Moss knew what he must do, despite the many challenges ahead.

Skinny Monkey looked flustered and stammered as he reported the situation to Stuart, “B-Big Brother, Name Stolen has accepted an insane mission!”

Stuart was lying in a massive rocking chair, narrowing his eyes as he coldly said, “Why are you so flustered?!”

Skinny Monkey could not hide his excitement as he spoke, “Name Stolen is taking on the level ten ‘king of the land’ mission!”

Stuart bolted upright when he heard Skinny Monkey’s words. He slammed the coffee table beside him and sternly said, “Are you for real?!”

“Of course, sir!” Skinny Monkey handed his membership card to Stuart. “Look, this is the latest information on Name Stolen.”

After looking at Skinny Monkey’s membership card for a while, Stuart laughed maniacally. Then he patted Skinny Monkey’s shoulder, saying, “Go look for Name Stolen with Tarly. That means we’re supporting Name Stolen in completing his mission.”

“But, sir, Name Stolen has always liked being alone. Do you think he’ll come to us this time?” Skinny Monkey asked in surprise.

“The level ten mission is the most difficult among the non-hidden ones. Do you think Name Stolen can complete it alone? No one is confident enough to say they can complete the mission, even if several teams go simultaneously.”

Stuart gently patted Skinny Monkey’s cheek and continued, “We will help Name Stolen, even if he disagrees. We can enjoy ourselves for a while if we pick up some scraps from the mission. It would be great if we can make it to where we can benefit from the mission.”

Skinny Monkey became excited when he heard what his boss said. “All right, Big Brother. I’ll go look for Tarly now and chat with that kid.”

With that, Skinny Monkey disappeared like smoke.
