Chapter 35

Lu Qingyu revealed an astonished, cute expression.

She chuckled and said: "You're not the top student of Baiyun No. 1 Middle School, yet you don't even know this."

Then she giggled repeatedly, feeling she had finally gotten the better of Jiang Chen once.

"Hehe, you actually don't know; turns out there are things you don't know."

Jiang Chen didn't respond, just quietly looking at Lu Qingyu.

To him, there being many things he doesn't know isn't strange, right?

"I'm not omniscient; it's normal not to know some things."

Lu Qingyu seemed to have discovered something amusing, she continued joking: "Say something nice, and I'll tell you."

Jiang Chen turned his head, closed his eyes, unwilling to engage with Lu Qingyu any further.

"If you want to say it, say it; still playing this game, he's not a child."

"Getting him to say nice things is impossible."

Lu Qingyu sighed, feeling Jiang Chen was a bit stiff.

"You're really boring, can't even take a joke."

She teased again: "People say Magic Class Profession's thinking is the most lively and agile, unlike you being so stiff."

"I really doubt you're a genuine Summoner."

Jiang Chen remained silent, feeling such jokes were meaningless.

Lu Qingyu's eyes shifted: "Let me tell you, it's because I used a Cooldown Talisman."

Jiang Chen searched his memory for information about the Cooldown Talisman, but found none.

He didn't even know what a Talisman was, because the school didn't teach this knowledge.

It seems the authorities don't record much information in textbooks; many things remain unknown.

Professionals need to slowly explore this in their future careers.

Lu Qingyu

Explained: "The Cooldown Talisman can cancel the instance's cooldown, allowing you to enter the instance repeatedly."

Then Lu Qingyu took out a palm-sized talisman, placed it before Jiang Chen: "This is it."

The talisman looked like a gemstone, its surface shimmering with tempting light, covered in incomprehensible runes.

At first sight of this item, Jiang Chen felt it was profoundly mysterious.

Jiang Chen touched the talisman, and his fingertips glowed faintly.

Through Detection Technique, he obtained the talisman's information.

"Basic Cooldown Talisman"

"Usage count: 7/10"

"Description: Can cancel instance cooldown, effective only on instances below Level 20."

So such a thing exists! Jiang Chen felt he was indeed ignorant.

Lu Qingyu continued explaining: "I used this talisman to continuously enter instances; now you understand, right?"

If he also had this talisman, he could repeatedly run instances to raise his level.

It would be far more efficient than now, without having to idle for 12 hours waiting for the instance cooldown to fully disappear before re-entering.

Jiang Chen asked softly: "Is this talisman expensive?"

Lu Qingyu replied: "I don't know either; it was given by my father; as for its value, I truly have no idea."

Lu Qingyu's family is very wealthy; the Lu family of Baiyun City holds a place in the entire Jiangbei Province, so even something she doesn't know the value of must be hard to obtain.

Absolutely precious!

Jiang Chen analyzed and felt he couldn't obtain such a talisman for now, because his wealth pales compared to Lu Qingyu's family.

He can only think about it.

Lu Qingyu added: "There are still two days"

"time, I will use up the talisman's 7 Reset Opportunities."

"Adding my own cooldown, I still need to run instances at least 9 more times to reach Level 15."

She sighed: "Goodness, I'm going to die from exhaustion."

With a worried look, she appeared like a seventeen- or eighteen-year-old high school girl.

She no longer had the school demeanor of constantly wanting to showdown with Jiang Chen.

She became much more approachable; it seems girls are indeed multifaceted.

After thinking, Jiang Chen said: "I can take you to run instances; I guarantee you'll reach Level 15, and you won't need to lift a finger."

Lu Qingyu's eyes lit up; she suddenly recalled that this classmate beside her indeed had the ability to Solo Run instances...

Running instances with Jiang Chen would not only save trouble but also yield more experience.

She herself wouldn't need to act, and with the two of them splitting experience, there would still be a lot; no matter how you look, it's very worthwhile.

It's practically guaranteed profit in experience, plus saving considerable time.

No fatigue, yet more experience—this is a great boon.

The only problem is that this way, her level would fall even further behind Jiang Chen's.

But even if she didn't follow him to run instances, could she catch up?

Lu Qingyu had no confidence.

After consideration, Lu Qingyu made a decision.

If her level temporarily can't catch up, so be it; first ensure she can enter Shenlong University.

Anyway, the professional path has just begun; the future is still far off; someday she'll catch up.

Okay, I promise you, you take me to clear the instance, I'll share the talisman with you to use together.

Jiang Chen knew Lu Qingyu would definitely agree; as long as she isn't too stupid, she won't

Refuse.

This way, I can also clear the instance a few more times.

Although each time yields less experience, but with more times, actually the gain is greater.

This is a win-win result.

Lu Qingyu said, "Then let's not waste time, let's enter the instance together."

Jiang Chen didn't move, "In two hours, my cooldown time will end."

There are still two hours; using up a talisman reset opportunity isn't worth it.

Lu Qingyu isn't stupid; she can calculate this clearly: "Alright, then wait two hours, I'll nap first, wake me when done."

Saying that, she lay down and slept, soon falling asleep.

Sleeping so defenselessly in the wild is very dangerous.

But Lu Qingyu slept very peacefully, because Jiang Chen was beside her.

No matter how dissatisfied she is with Jiang Chen, she knows his character well, can be completely at ease.

Lu Qingyu curled up her body, slept soundly, with a smile on her lips.

After Jiang Chen gave the guard command to the skeleton, he continued meditating, restoring his spiritual power.

Two hours later, Jiang Chen's instance cooldown ended.

Get up.

Jiang Chen woke Lu Qingyu.

Lu Qingyu, half-asleep, said, "So fast."

Lu Qingyu rose and stretched, revealing her slender navel.

At this moment, she unabashedly displayed her beautiful figure.

Lu Qingyu is tall and slender, her height is about 1.7 meters, her body is well-proportioned.

She looks only slightly shorter than Jiang Chen, who is 1.8 meters tall.

The two stood side by side, like a perfect match made in heaven.

Only the skeleton warrior beside them is somewhat out of place.

After sleeping two hours, Lu Qingyu's spirit has largely recovered, fatigue mostly gone.

The two formed a team, Jiang Chen as team leader, together they came to the instance.

At the entrance.

Lu Qingyu used a basic cooldown talisman, making her instance cooldown disappear.

A faint light flowed over her body, Lu Qingyu nodded at Jiang Chen, "Alright, let's go in."

Jiang Chen opened the instance, then selected nightmare-level difficulty.

Lu Qingyu's face changed dramatically, "Did you select the wrong difficulty?"

Before her voice faded, the two had already disappeared at the instance doorway.

"Ah, don't, Jiang Chen, did you really select the correct difficulty..."
