39: Copy, S-level Heart of Fire!
Two hours later, Xia Qi left Lina's residence, playing with the smooth Rune Reset Stone in his hand.
He could feel a very mysterious aura from it; the patterns formed by the runes contained the power of rules.
It was no wonder that only Rune Great Masters above Rank 60 could craft it.
However, even Rune Great Masters were not very willing to craft Rune Reset Stones, as they could only be used for dungeons below Rank 20, making them somewhat of a novelty.
Only the children of some big bosses could use them in the early stages, so there wasn't a large supply on the market.
A single Rune Reset Stone, in terms of price, cost about 30 million. It could be used for ten dungeon runs in total. For others, it would definitely be a loss, but in Xia Qi's hands, he could still make money.
Putting the Rune Reset Stone into his storage space, Xia Qi simply waited near the dungeon entrance.
An hour later, three hours after Yun Qingyue entered the dungeon, she appeared at the dungeon entrance again.
Compared to last time, she was covered in dust this time, panting with a tired expression.
Even if she could run the dungeon ten times a day, her stamina couldn't keep up, and her energy was depleted. Entering the dungeon again would be suicide.
"Oh my goodness, how did Xia Qi manage to level up so quickly? I'm practically exhausted."
After more than a dozen consecutive hours, she had run the normal difficulty Zombie Mine three times. Although her Rank had risen to 12, she was completely drained.
"Have some water and rest."
Xia Qi quietly approached, handing a cup of energy water to Yun Qingyue. Covertly, his left pupil shifted, having already used Copy on her.
[Copy S-Rank Talent: Heart of Blazing Fire.]
[Heart of Blazing Fire (Copied)]
[Quality: S-Rank]
[Effect: Burn all directions; you are the monarch of flames.]
Seeing the description of Heart of Blazing Fire's attributes, Xia Qi was secretly delighted. He could finally directly copy S-Rank Talents.
Like Thunder Control, the S-Rank Talent Heart of Blazing Fire was a fire element Talent, belonging to the noble elemental Talent series.
At the same time, Heart of Blazing Fire also granted Xia Qi an active skill.
[Fire Sea: Burn the heavens and destroy the earth, incinerating all things. Fire Sea covers a radius of one hundred meters.]
If he wasn't mistaken, the power of Fire Sea should not be weaker than Nine Heavens Thunderclap.
Directly copying this S-Rank Talent saved him a lot of trouble.
"Hey, this drink can restore energy! I feel like a lot of my fatigue has disappeared."
Yun Qingyue's eyes lit up. Just one sip had greatly improved her mental state, so she couldn't resist and drank half the cup in one go.
"The rest is for you. I'm sorry, it was too delicious, I couldn't resist."
Seeing Xia Qi staring at her intently, Yun Qingyue shyly returned the cup with lipstick marks to Xia Qi.
"Ah? I've already drunk from it, you can have it all."
Xia Qi, who had been focused on the Talent interface, snapped back to reality and waved his hands repeatedly.
"Xia Qi, you're too kind to me. Then I'll drink it all, okay?"
"Drink it, drink it."
Yun Qingyue drank the remaining energy water as if it were a treasure. Such energy-restoring drinks were uncommon. The Yun Family naturally had them, but this was given by Xia Qi, so the meaning was different.
Carefully putting the empty cup into her space, Yun Qingyue cheered herself on, "I can reset the dungeon eight more times, Xia Qi. You wait for me, I will definitely catch up to you."
After speaking, she was about to continue entering the dungeon, but Xia Qi spoke up.
"I think I can take you to clear the dungeon. I guarantee you'll reach Rank 15, and you won't have to do anything."
"Really?!"
When Yun Qingyue heard Xia Qi's words, she froze in place, rubbing her head in disbelief.
Xia Qi actually invited her!
Oh my god, this must be the legendary two-person world!
Because of Xia Qi's invitation to team up, Yun Qingyue's thoughts drifted to the Nine Heavens, almost even thinking of names for their children.
"Hey, are you in or not? Give me an answer."
Seeing Yun Qingyue standing there shyly and awkwardly without speaking, Xia Qi thought his invitation was too abrupt.
Indeed, Yun Qingyue didn't need to team up with him at all. The Yun Family's financial resources and Materials were enough for her to clear dungeons alone.
Rune Reset Stones were, after all, very precious items, so it was normal not to want to share them with others.
If he were a normal person, Xia Qi's thoughts wouldn't be wrong, but he was mistaken. Yun Qingyue was clearly not a normal person.
"I agree! Take me to clear the dungeon with you, I'm so happy I can barely contain myself!"
Yun Qingyue, realizing what was happening, nodded frantically like a pecking chick, afraid that Xia Qi would change his mind the next second and not have a sweet duo run with her.
"I'll jungle, you support. It's happily decided. As for the Materials in the dungeon..."
Xia Qi pondered, stroking his chin. He had Lucky. If they split it fifty-fifty, it seemed a bit of a loss, as it would easily be millions. This point needed to be thought through carefully.
"I don't want them. You're already taking me to level up, I only need the experience."
As soon as this question came up, Yun Qingyue didn't even think about it and refused to share. Firstly, she didn't lack money at all; she had no concept of money since childhood.
Secondly, she had run the normal difficulty dungeon twice today, and each time only yielded four to five hundred thousand in Materials. Splitting it in half would leave only a little over two hundred thousand, which was completely unnecessary.
Therefore, for Xia Qi, whose family was relatively tight on money, it was better to leave these funds to him. S-Rank Talents were just the beginning; to continuously grow stronger, besides leveling up, a large amount of money was also required.
Yun Qingyue simply gave everything to Xia Qi; she only wanted to be able to team up with him.
"Alright, it's settled then. Don't regret it."
"Don't worry, I definitely won't regret it."
Yun Qingyue nodded, quietly following beside Xia Qi.
The two arrived at the dungeon entrance. Xia Qi, as the leader, selected the dungeon difficulty, while Yun Qingyue stood by, stretching.
After a day of fighting, her energy had recovered quite a bit, but her stamina was still lacking. Stretching her body would make her feel much more relaxed.
Yun Qingyue, tall and slender, freely displayed her beautiful figure in front of Xia Qi.
At 1.7 meters tall, dressed in a white mage robe and white stockings, her figure was even more curvaceous.
She looked only slightly shorter than the 1.8-meter-tall Xia Qi.
Xia Qi estimated that while Yun Qingyue wasn't as well-endowed as Lina, she wasn't bad either.
"At least a C," Xia Qi mumbled unconsciously.
"What did you say?"
Yun Qingyue turned her head.
"Nothing, let's enter the dungeon."
With that, Xia Qi selected nightmare difficulty.
Two faint lights flowed around their bodies. The Rune Reset Stone on Yun Qingyue's body emitted a mysterious glow, canceling the dungeon's cooldown.
At this moment, Yun Qingyue also subconsciously glanced at the dungeon's difficulty.
Her expression changed drastically. "Xia Qi, did you choose wrong?"
Before her words even fell, the two had already disappeared into the dungeon entrance.
