Chapter 689 [(*^▽^*)]
After all… there was something Qin Xingyu hadn’t explicitly said, which Lin Leyou knew in his heart.
Even if you are extremely lucky enough to encounter the opening of this dungeon, and even more lucky enough to accumulate the maximum of 100 billion points, at least you can guarantee that you won't die.
Even if you clear this difficult dungeon, you may not necessarily get the items you want.
After the instance ends, who knows how much longer the wait will be?
Lin Leyou knew that, having become a resident, his lifespan was definitely different from that of people in the real world; his lifespan was calculated according to the endless world.
However, players from the real world who come to the Endless World still only have a lifespan of a few decades. But within these few decades, an additional restriction is added: they will die when their score is negative.
However, even if they accumulate a lot of points, they will still die when they reach a certain age, and they will also grow old.
And he... Lin Leyou, has become a resident, which is completely different from Xue Rui.
He had been thinking about this for a while, ever since he and Xue Rui confirmed their relationship. But they were only eighteen or nineteen years old and still very young. They had a long time before they got old, so there was no rush.
If that's the case, then there's no need...
Lin Leyou rolled around on the bed a couple of times while hugging the blanket before contacting Xue Rui, "Xiao Rui, I've asked around."
Xue Rui had been waiting, and upon receiving Lin Leyou's reply, he sat up excitedly. "Really?"
Lin Leyou didn't answer directly, but instead asked, "Xiao Rui, are you really going to come to my place?"
Xue Rui blinked. "Is there some kind of difficulty?"
Lin Leyou, "Isn't it better to stay over there? Bring me there too... that way we can be together. Would you be willing?"
Xue Rui felt there was something more to his words, wondering, "Did Teacher Qin say something...?"
Lin Leyou: "I just feel... you seem to be too good to me? You always put me first."
Xue Rui: "I...of course I'll put you first."
After thinking for a moment, Lin Leyou told him what Qin Xingyu had said, "I think this item... if you're unlucky, you might never get it."
Moreover, you absolutely cannot buy such items outside; they are exclusively exclusive. Only those who have this need have a certain probability of obtaining such items from the dungeon.
Xue Rui: "I know it's difficult."
Lin Leyou, "Hmm?"
Xue Rui: "I'm not afraid, Leyou. I want to be with you forever."
Lin Leyou clenched her fingers tightly. "Then you..."
Xue Rui: "I know that it's absolutely impossible to achieve everything in one step. So let's start by developing the first step of the plan."
Lin Leyou said, "The first step... is to obtain a special key so that we can be ready to open dungeons of super-star difficulty at any time. Without the key, everything is just empty talk."
Xue Rui said, "As long as there is a chance and hope, that's fine. I'm just afraid that there will be no chance at all, no hope at all. It's okay, we are still young, and we will definitely be able to wait until that day."
Lin Leyou: "Yes, absolutely."
He had never entered the Endless World in his previous life, so he didn't know if the Super Star difficulty dungeon had ever reappeared, but he felt it should in this life.
We can't just not give them any at all, can we?
But how do you get this key? Lin Leyou searched frantically on the Endless World Network once again, and finally found that it appears randomly in dungeons of difficulty levels S to 3S.
Just how random is this randomness? Some people have been frantically entering these instances to find the key, but have searched for years without any success.
Previously, an employee of the Bureau of Order Management took advantage of his holiday to take on two relatively easy NPC role-playing jobs in an S-rank dungeon with his partner. As a result, one of the NPCs gave them a key, which was the key needed to enter the Super Star difficulty dungeon.
Is it really that random? So you can't specifically aim for the key to clear the game; you just have to wait for it to appear. Since that's the case...
Things are different now than before. To clear a dungeon from S to 3S difficulty, you now need to wait 20 days, 25 days, and 30 days respectively, which is a limitation for them.
This is something that really can't be rushed.
Lin Leyou also felt a bit annoyed; these things were really too troublesome... But it didn't matter; no matter how troublesome it was, this was something that had to be done.
He had a good idea before: to make Xue Rui a resident as well, which would be perfect. But after thinking it over, he decided not to make a decision for the time being and to wait until he actually got the item.
Perhaps I will still yearn for the real world?
Or perhaps Xue Rui still feels that it's better for both of them to be in the real world...
But what if I reveal to Xue Rui that I'm actually from the real world? Will he be angry with me? And...
Lin Leyou was still a little conflicted. Should she just tell him now? If she told him now, Xue Rui would know that she was also from the real world, and that they could be together. Maybe then she wouldn't be so fixated on the key or the prop that allowed her to change her identity.
He certainly trusted Xue Rui, but Xue Rui's identity in the real world was something he couldn't access right now, especially if he were exposed to the Bureau...
His previous connection with Qian Feng, along with his series of unlucky experiences, had already left an impression on him at the police station and among the two officers who were also players.
If he gets together with Xue Rui again and becomes her lover, he will definitely be thoroughly investigated. When they ask him where he got the money, how will he answer?
Even if Xue Rui doesn't say it, he estimates that his strangeness will soon be discovered, thus exposing his identity.
Lin Leyou suddenly thought of something. Speaking of exposing one's identity, had Xue Qian's identity as a player been exposed? Ever since he moved to his new home, as long as he hadn't officially entered the dungeon and cleared it, he would always keep a mechanical spider near Xue Zhengyang's house in the same neighborhood.
The mechanical spider actually saw Xue Qian's figure normally. It's a real pity that after the shipwreck killed him, it didn't reduce his score to negative.
What a pity, what a real pity... But even if he were still alive, Xue Qian would definitely not have many points left. If only we could meet again, we could send him back to his hometown directly.
In the following days, Xue Rui did not come to Happiness Community to look for him, and Lin Leyou was also lucky not to encounter any dungeons while staying in Happiness Community. In this way, the twenty-five days passed completely.
The time came once again for him to meet Xue Rui.
Xue Rui had been very excited all day. He was lying in bed, waiting for midnight to arrive.
"Enjoy your trip!"
Lin Leyou was currently in the Endless World, using his phone to browse through all the valuable information about dungeons ranging from S to 3S difficulty. Of course, much of it was uninformative, but he picked out the useful information to read. Although the information here couldn't compare to that in Qin Xingyu's study, it was the latest.
"I'm here."
Xue Rui: "You're not paying attention."
Lin Leyou raised an eyebrow. This Xue Rui was quite something. He answered Xue Rui while looking through these things, and you could tell from his tone that he wasn't paying attention.
Where are you not concentrating?
Xue Rui, "What are you looking at?"
Lin Leyou sighed, "Xiao Rui, you're amazing! I'm looking through some information related to high-difficulty dungeons."
Xue Rui said, "There's no need to look at it. It's useless anyway. We might not go to the same instance. Even if we're lucky enough to run into it, the quests will probably be different."
Lin Leyou, "Hmm... So, have you decided what difficulty level of dungeon you want to enter this time?"
Xue Rui said, "For us now, it's perfectly feasible to go to a 3S difficulty dungeon every time."
Lin Leyou said, "That's true, but the difficulty of the dungeons we entered before has changed. If we choose a 3S difficulty dungeon this time, the difficulty will only become easier."
Xue Rui, "Then... should we choose the 2S difficulty level?"
Lin Leyou said, "Forget it, let's choose the 3S difficulty. If the difficulty remains the same, choosing the 2S would be a waste. Besides, we might have been lucky before, but if it changes again this time, it's just bad luck."
Xue Rui didn't think about it any further, "I'll listen to you."
Lin Leyou: "Alright, alright, it's about time, let's enter the dungeon!"
Having prepared everything, the two entered the instance just after midnight. This instance was a 3S difficulty instance selected by Lin Leyou.
However, he only selected the difficulty level and did not choose anything else; the type of this instance was completely random.
When Lin Leyou opened his eyes again, he found himself in a vast grassland, with the only tree on the grassland behind him.
The tree is 100 meters tall, with lush branches and leaves, and countless leaves rustling in the wind.
He looked down at himself. He was dressed casually, like someone who was just out for a walk. He picked up a mirror and looked at himself. He looked like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, and he was good-looking, but he didn't resemble himself at all.
He stood up and slowly walked forward. When he left the shade of the tree and stepped into the sunlight, he suddenly felt as if the view before him had opened up.
A gust of wind blew by, and the entire grassland seemed to cheer.
Lin Leyou looked at the waves of grass swaying in the wind on the grassland, the seemingly unreal white clouds in the sky, and the azure sky. The environment here was truly wonderful.
But... has this system been silent for too long?
"System, where's the notification?"
"System prompt: This instance is entirely open to exploration. The time limit is one month. After the instance ends, it will be announced whether the instance is cleared, as well as the rewards or points deducted. During this period, the system will not provide any notifications."
