I told you to change your skills, and you changed them into a nuclear explosion immortal?

Upon hearing this, Li Zian nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.

Xu Qingmeng stared in astonishment, her eyes widening, and she froze on the spot.

"Purgatory Mode???"

Xu Qingmeng's breathing became rapid, and she subconsciously took a step forward.

"Lu Yun, you're kidding, right? Hell Mode? And a level 30 dungeon?"

"That's a difficulty level that even five level 50 silver epic-level professionals would have a hard time clearing!"

This was definitely the most she had ever spoken in her life.

But in fact, what she said wasn't wrong.

Among the five difficulty levels, the difficulty increases exponentially as you progress.

Generally speaking, being able to clear the higher level of a dungeon of the same level is considered a sign of skill, and only teams with all epic-level characters dare to challenge the harder level.

But that's just a challenge; I can't say I'll be 100% sure I can beat it.

As for Hell difficulty, almost everyone who dares to challenge it is backward compatible with level 20.

Otherwise, why do first kills of Hell and Inferno difficulty levels still exist in most dungeons?

Isn't it just because it's too difficult to beat?

Of course, you could let those top-tier players complete the game.

Putting aside the lack of experience, the rewards will be cut back, and you'll have to suffer a month-long weakness buff as punishment. This means that those who are too high-level will not attempt the purgatory mode of low-level dungeons.

The problem is, this is only the first job advancement quest?

How did I end up with a mission of this level?

Xu Qingmeng became increasingly dumbfounded as she thought about it, and the way she looked at Lu Yun changed.

Could it be that he forgot to check the almanac before going out and started reading the characters instead?

Seeing the two people's dumbfounded expressions, Lu Yun helplessly shared the task.

After reading it, Xu Qingmeng was even more dumbfounded.

"No, not... a Gold Myth-level quest?"

"So many restrictions and requirements???"

Oh no, this person really left!

Standing next to him won't get you struck by lightning, right?

Xu Qingmeng looked at Lu Yun with a completely bewildered expression.

"They're flashing alarms, and you still call this an easy mission?"

Lu Yun twitched his lips, somewhat helplessly.

"It's really not difficult. If there wasn't a limit on the number of people, I wouldn't have bothered you."

"..."

Xu Qingmeng was speechless, yet inexplicably anxious.

Because the mission clearly stated that if Lu Yun failed three times, he would never be able to advance to the next level and would be stuck at level 30.

"No, I'll call a few people over to help you."

"Oh, no need, the three of us are enough, no, to be precise, I can manage on my own."

"Lu Yun, you must be joking! This is level 30 Hell Mode, even five Mythical-level professionals wouldn't dare guarantee anything!"

Seeing that she was a little anxious, Lu Yun was both amused and exasperated. He pursed his lips, patted her shoulder, and said softly.

"Okay, it really works, you don't need to worry."

Xu Qingmeng wanted to say something more, but seeing Lu Yun's calm and confident eyes, she couldn't bring herself to speak.

Seeing this, Li Zian touched Lu Yun's forehead with a bewildered expression, and then touched his own forehead with suspicion.

He then muttered to himself while clicking his teeth.

"It didn't catch fire, did it?"

"Get out of here!"

Lu Yun, his face darkening, pushed his hand away.

"Let's go, let's get into the lab quickly."

"Wait a moment."

Seeing his persistence, Xu Qingmeng, for some reason, found herself believing he could pass the level again.

Moreover, Xu Qingmeng also realized that even if she couldn't pass the level, there were still two more chances, right?

If he fails, he can always find someone else to help him.

Thinking of this, she immediately opened the trading channel.

"You're charging me admission so you can unlock the Hell Mode, right? 1 gold isn't enough. I have another 10 gold and some other materials. See if that's enough. If not, I'll have someone send more."

"Keep this resurrection straw doll too. It's okay if it fails; I'll help you find another way."

Looking at the rare materials and the gleaming 10 gold in the trading window, Lu Yun was stunned.

To be honest, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the two were just strangers who met by chance and were only nodding acquaintances.

But why did she go to such lengths to help me?

Could it be that she really likes me?

Is this a joke?

I'm an orphan, and I'm nobody.

She is the eldest daughter of the Xu family and a top school beauty. No matter how you look at it, the two of them are completely unrelated.

Moreover, in terms of aloofness, Xu Qingmeng, known as the "eternal iceberg," is even more aloof.

Let alone saying so much today, normally it's a blessing if she even opens her mouth.

This is... too strange, isn't it?

Seeing Lu Yun looking at her with suspicion, Xu Qingmeng blushed and quickly looked away.

"Don't overthink it, we're classmates, I don't want to..."

Xu Qingmeng's voice grew softer and softer, while Lu Yun's gaze became increasingly strange.

Li Zian glanced at it and realized that if they kept mixing the turtle and mung beans like this, it would be time to get them by tomorrow morning.

"Hey you two, are you still going to do the mission or not?"

"Huh? Ah... okay, okay..."

Xu Qingmeng suddenly snapped back to her senses, blushing as she looked away.

"Okay, then you pack your things first and let's get into the dungeon quickly."

"Forget about the stuff, I have the Purgatory Opener."

"???"

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingmeng's eyes widened instantly.

"The Purgatory Activator? You..."

"A clear dream?"

Before Xu Qingmeng could finish speaking, a voice filled with surprise and astonishment suddenly rang out.

The three of them looked over instinctively and discovered that it was Wu Xiangchen.

After confirming that it was Xu Qingmeng, Wu Xiangchen's eyes lit up and he quickly ran over.

"Qingmeng, are you also coming to Shadowmoon Castle to level up?"

Each safe square does not lead to only one instance.

Here, you can enter the level 30 Shadowmoon Castle, the level 10 Shadowmoon Castle, and the level 15 Bloodmoon Castle.

"Qingmeng, I have four retainers who can help me level up. Would you like to team up with me? I'll let my priest retainer rest for a bit."

Wu Xiangchen was also surprised to see Xu Qingmeng here, so he was overjoyed.

However, the moment Xu Qingmeng saw Wu Xiangchen, her expression immediately turned cold again.

"Need not."

When Wu Xiangchen saw her speak, his eyes lit up with joy. He knew that Xu Qingmeng usually ignored him whenever she saw him!

"It's alright, Qingmeng. The remaining three retainers are all mages, and they can kill monsters incredibly fast. Look, I'm already level 9. If I just grind three more rounds, I'll reach level 10. Then we can go to Blood Moon Castle together to continue leveling up. I guarantee we'll reach level 15 in a week."

"I know you don't want to rely on others and only want to level up on your own, but if you bring your girlfriends along, you'll definitely fall behind in levels."

"If you don't even get a first job advancement after a month, even if you're a silver epic-level class, your entrance score will be significantly lower, and you'll be rejected by higher education institutions."

Xu Qingmeng spoke with impatience in her eyes.

"Please leave."

Wu Xiangchen was a little annoyed, but fortunately he was used to Xu Qingmeng like this. After suppressing his displeasure, he continued to force a smile.

"Qingmeng, you know, I..."

"roll!"

Xu Qingmeng's patience finally wore thin. She frowned slightly and interrupted him with a cold expression.

Wu Xiangchen's face turned pale and then red with anger.

"Qingmeng..."

"They already told you to get lost, why are you still stubbornly sticking here? Are the Wu family members really this shameless?"

Li Zian scoffed, his face full of disdain.

Wu Xiangchen then noticed that Lu Yun and Li Zian were there.

What are you two doing here?

Upon hearing this, Li Zian looked at Lu Yundao with a mocking expression.

"See that, Brother Yun? That's what you call a top-tier simp, all he sees is his sister-in-law, hahaha."

"you?!!"

Wu Xiangchen's expression changed, and her face instantly turned red.

"Li Zian! What the hell are you spouting? Why are you calling her whatever you want while you're arguing about the password?"

"Sister-in-law? Qingmeng Goddess, my brother Yun's wife, what's wrong with your two arms? You're not happy about it?"

Wu Xiangchen shuddered with anger, especially when he saw that Xu Qingmeng did not refute him and instead looked away with a flushed face. He immediately blushed and his defenses crumbled.

"You idiot, you know you're asking for it, right?"

"And you!"

Wu Xiangchen, enraged and embarrassed, pointed at Lu Yun and said angrily.

"An orphan, a piece of trash at the lowest level, dares to lay a finger on Qingmeng?"

I'll fucking kill you!!!

"roll!"

Wu Xiangchen instinctively reached for his weapon, but Xu Qingmeng was a step ahead of Lu Yun.

After all, speaking only requires opening your mouth.

With a cold face and eyes full of disgust, she uttered the sentence she had said most often in her life to Wu Xiangchen.

"Don't ever show your face in front of me again, or bother me or my friends. I'll definitely have a word with Uncle Wu!"

"Lu Yun, let's go."

"you?!!"

Wu Xiangchen shivered with cold, and his eyes turned red.

He hadn't expected that after licking for so long, Xu Qingmeng would still be so heartless.

What broke his defenses even more was that Xu Qingmeng treated him with indifference, but when she turned to look at Lu Yun, she spoke softly.

Such double standards have completely tarnished Wu Xiangchen's reputation.

"Qingmeng... he's a piece of trash, and this stupid thief is no different from trash. If you team up with them, you won't even reach level 15 in two months. You might as well team up with your best friend."

Xu Qingmeng remained silent upon hearing this, only expressing her utter contempt.

Wu Xiangchen was so angry that his veins were bulging.

"Qingmeng! Are you really going to fall into this rut ​​with them? If you team up with me, I guarantee you'll get a first job advancement within a month!"

"As for them, they're just a burden! Can they help you level up and get equipment? Don't forget, he's a mage too. If he drops any equipment, can he give it to you? I can guarantee that!"

"Any magic-based equipment that drops will be yours! Even skill books, I'll give them to you without hesitation!"

"Qingmeng..."

"That's enough! Don't call me Qingmeng anymore. We're not that close."

"Lu Yun, let's go."

Xu Qingmeng didn't want to see Wu Xiangchen for even a second, so she grabbed Lu Yun's sleeve and turned to leave.

All that remained was Wu Xiangchen's face, ashen as blood, his eyes bloodshot.

Staring at the departing figures of the three, Wu Xiangchen clenched his fists and said with resentment and venom in his eyes.

"After we finish clearing the dungeon..."

"Lu Yun...I want you dead...I want you dead!!!"
