Chapter 99: Chapter 99: The Windfall I, Qian 7, Want Will Never Be Late!
"Chuyun Mountain" instance is the Quasi-E-level dungeon chosen by the system for Qian Qi.
This instance is said to be very mysterious. The military has sent awakened warrior explorers many times, all of whom perished without returning, hence it is recognized externally as a dungeon of C-level or higher.
However, because the gap fluctuations in the Chuyun Mountain Dungeon have always been stable, it’s ranked at the bottom of the strategic requirements, and none of the advanced awakeners from several families have attempted to conquer it.
Thus, this became a bargain for Qian Qi.
As for why none of the awakened warrior explorers sent by the military returned...
It’s because once inside the instance, they appear directly in the sky, and if unprepared, they can only end up falling into the abyss below, potentially dying from the fall.
Coincidentally, even wireless transmission cannot be achieved in this instance, losing contact inside and out, which causes the dungeon’s level to be increasingly rumored as sinister.
Qian Qi squatted in a shopping mall, watching the parachute while reading its instructions.
"Can we really learn this on the spot?" Qian Qi’s little face was worried, "I don’t think I can do it..."
[Women should never say they’re not capable!] The system waved a cheering stick encouragingly.
"But I think we have a money-saving and convenient method..." Qian Qi sneakily glanced at the system.
The system suddenly sensed a foreboding. According to its analysis, whenever Qian Qi gets that look, she’s up to some bizarre idea.
"Look, wouldn’t it be better to spend the parachute money on food?" Qian Qi rubbed her hands together, laughing while gripping the system panel, "Then you can replace the parachute and ensure my safe landing?"
System: ???
"Look at you, you look just like a flying carpet from a fairy tale~" Qian Qi started climbing onto the panel, "Let me ride you!"
She had coveted it for a long time!
System: ???!!!
[Dog-like Qian Qi—] Seeing Qian Qi climbing up, the system struggled frantically, [Get off me! This is disrespect to the system! Disrespect to the system!!!]
"Think of the money~ think of the money!" Qian Qi seduced, "A parachute costs 6000 bucks! Would you rather let the money flow to outsiders, or keep those 6000 for yourself?"
With such words, the system paused slightly, shamefully tempted.
bucks!
[Only this once!] The system spoke stiffly, indicating it’s the last shred of its dignity.
Qian Qi snapped her fingers mentally: Yes! Seduction successful!
On the surface, she acted like a bootlicker, "Thank you, System Lord, you are so kind~"
Qian Qi believed the system was much safer than a parachute. Moreover, once there’s a first time, there will be a second time. Sooner or later, Tongzi would become her exclusive flying device...
Hehehehehe~
Upon obtaining the system’s permission as a flying carpet, Qian Qi began to bulk-purchase houses in several decent communities around the Chuyun Mountain Dungeon.
Real estate transactions are now very advanced online. As long as both parties have face recognition, property ownership transfers can be completed on the same day. After spending the remaining 2 million entirely on real estate, Qian Qi looked at her account with only a few bucks left, and couldn’t help frowning.
"Back to square one, two months of hard work down the drain."
This won’t do, she needs to think of a way to make a windfall and compensate for the empty wallet.
With this in mind, Qian Qi followed the system to Chuyun Mountain Dungeon, and went straight in.
Behind her, Li Haisheng, who had been following Qian Qi, finally saw her alone and frowned.
He seemed to know about this instance, having heard it to be a C-level or higher dungeon.
The one called Qian Qi, well, once inside she’ll surely die, won’t she?
Unexpectedly, earning 20 million is so easy, Li Haisheng’s frown instantly eased, and he directly called Chen Tong.
"The person you mentioned, Qian Qi, has gone into the Chuyun Mountain instance."
"What?" Chen Tong was momentarily stunned; he knew about that instance. Because of its ’no return’ status, it had always been regarded as a hell dungeon by the residents of Xia City.
But why did Qian Qi go into that instance?
Thinking that Qian Qi couldn’t possibly do anything useless, Chen Tong couldn’t help but say, "You should go in too."
"What? Are you crazy?" Li Haisheng shouted, "This is a hell dungeon, many D-level awakened warriors perished in it, and you want me to throw my life away?"
"If she can go, so can you!" Chen Tong asserted, "Follow her. Pretend to be a brave and kind explorer in the instance—maybe she will protect you!"
Li Haisheng: ???
This employer, is his brain malfunctioning? Didn’t he tell him to kill her? Why does he now want her to protect him? What exactly is he thinking?
"First see what she’s doing in the dungeon. I suspect she found new beneficial resources." Chen Tong deliberated, "After you understand, then kill her."
"..." Li Haisheng rubbed his temples, "I absolutely won’t go into the Chuyun Mountain Dungeon, don’t..."
"I’ll raise the pay." Chen Tong, rarely lacking money, "After the job, 40 million."
Li Haisheng’s hand trembled, he looked at the Chuyun Mountain instance, and after deep consideration, said, "Pay me a 10 million down payment, immediately."
Chen Tong slightly furrowed his brows, feeling very displeased with Li Haisheng asking for such a high down payment. But he was too eager to know what good things Qian Qi had found, so he could only grit his teeth, "Alright."
He believed, Qian Qi would never go in there just to die; there must be some treasure inside.
The greedy Chen Tong transferred the money to Li Haisheng, reminding again, "Remember, absolutely don’t give her money, try to appear weak, let her protect you, and come out alive!!!"
"Got it."
For the sake of his own life, Li Haisheng finally decided to try Chen Tong’s method, since according to Chen Tong, Qian Qi really seemed capable.
And, she indeed dared to go into the Chuyun Mountain Dungeon alone just moments ago...
Rolling his eyes, Li Haisheng, for safety’s sake, used the money Chen Tong sent to buy himself a set of more advanced equipment before stepping into the Chuyun Mountain instance.
Inside the Chuyun Mountain Dungeon.
Qian Qi sat on the system panel like a meditating monk.
"Can’t deny you’re something, System Lord. Flying so steadily!" Qian Qi generously gave a thumbs up to the system panel.
[...Just shut up!]
The system panel carried Qian Qi descending slowly amidst the clouds, the soft white clouds brushed against Qian Qi’s ears, bringing a gentle moisture, Qian Qi looked through the system panel downward, discovering numerous overlapping black canyons stretching across the land, like the giant mouths of deep abysses, unknowingly swallowing countless adventurers.
"Are there many magic beasts here?" Qian Qi couldn’t help but ask.
[Pretty much, the canyon is treacherous, even magic beasts might accidentally fall into it and get half-killed. Therefore, this place constantly refreshes with new magic beasts, preventing their levels from rising.]
"I see."
Qian Qi nodded, "Are there Demon Electric Lions here?"
The system seemed puzzled by this question, [Yes, why?]
"Hehe, nothing much." Qian Qi touched her Light Brain and smiled, "I wonder if this instance can deliver a windfall; the previous people probably shattered on impact, and their valuables would have been smashed too."
"Ah, if a wealthy bad guy could just drop from the sky, that would be great." Qian Qi clasped her hands, sincerely prayed, "Pray to the heavens, grant me a windfall!"
[Stop dreaming, where’s this windfall for you? You best earn honest money...] The system’s words hadn’t finished when suddenly the sky echoed with cries of "Ahhh—Help—"
Qian Qi looked up and her small face immediately showed a fierce grin.
Aha!
Isn’t this the windfall coming directly?!
