NOVPUBZefina was no longer so confident this time.
She pondered for a moment and then slowly spoke up,
"I indeed cannot guarantee that I won't be controlled, but I can guarantee that I will maintain absolute clarity in some situations," she glanced at Qin Chuan and Lin Yue.
"Avoiding Disease's first Talent Effect, 'Contracted Spiritual Beast immune to all negative effects and marks.'"
"This Talent Effect transforms to apply to myself within a dungeon."
"So as long as I enter a dungeon, Sfin Gard cannot affect me."
Qin Chuan and Lin Yue exchanged glances, a look of surprise appearing on their faces.
They hadn't expected Avoiding Disease's first Talent Effect to be this.
From the perspective of Talent strength, the potency of this Talent Effect was quite remarkable.
As could be seen from Qin Chuan's four Spiritual Beasts, at high ranks, the beasts' reliance on the effectiveness of terms and the added effects of Skills was strong.
Water Flower's Water Flow Mark and [Knockback], Ice Cream's Eternal Winter term effectiveness, Frost Cold's slowing effect and [Frost Freeze], Silver Horn's [Armor Break], Shadow Devouring Poison's defense reduction and Life Stealing mark, Little Black's [Shattering] and [Tear].
All of these would not be effective against Avoiding Disease, significantly weakening the four little ones' strength.
If Zefina's Talent Effect was this, then she indeed had the assurance to maintain clarity within a dungeon, unaffected by Sfin Gard.
Qin Chuan and Lin Yue looked at each other again and then knocked on the tabletop with their knuckles, their expressions contemplative.
After a moment, he slowly opened his mouth.
"Since that's the case, let's discuss how to solve the Sleepless."
-----------------
Outside the Luoyue Guild, Oriel looked curiously at a sphere placed on an open space, as tall as a person.
Blue, green, and yellow halos flowed over the sphere, within which one could faintly sense immense lifeforce, as if a new life were about to hatch from it.
She slowly raised her hands, pretending to pinch in midair, ready to reach towards the sphere in front of her, but the next instant, a hand grabbed her wrist.
"Don't touch!" Evelyn said with a wary face, "That's the chairman's!"
"I know, I know..." Oriel's face suddenly showed a bit of resentment, "I just wanted to touch it myself. Just now I saw, you all touched it!"
"We are members of the Luoyue Guild; you are not," Evelyn huffed, "Besides, you cannot beat Little Black and Little White."
Oriel glanced at the two giant dragons, one black and one white, standing not far from the sphere and couldn't help but complain inwardly.
Little Black, Little White?
How are these two creatures little in any way?!
"Stingy!" Oriel moved her gaze from the sphere and crouched down in front of Evelyn, stretching out a hand to pinch Evelyn's slightly chubby cheeks.
"Little one, it seems like you have some grievances against me, yeah?"
"You… mmm..." Just as Evelyn was about to say something, Oriel held down both sides of her cheeks and started kneading, the cute little face gradually deforming under her molestation.
Evelyn's eyes quickly became dangerous, her gaze turned murderous.
But the next moment, her head was buried in Oriel's bosom.
"Mmm..." Evelyn's raised hand slowly fell.
Damn it, suffocating!
"Muhaha~" Oriel let go of Evelyn with satisfaction, "If I can't touch that round thing, I'll just touch you."
Seeing Evelyn's eyes darting towards a certain towering part of her body, Oriel chuckled, "No need to be envious, when you grow up..."
In the gradually brightening gaze of Evelyn, she shrugged.
"You'll realize, some things cannot be envied."
Evelyn: "..."
She hated women with large breasts!
"Iron Hammer Uncle, Oriel and Evelyn seem to get along very well," Red Leaf said while helping with the spoon to prepare delicious food, looking at Iron Hammer, who was also assisting but occasionally glancing in Evelyn's direction, and smiled.
"Yes," Iron Hammer shook his head lightly and laughed, "It seems my worries were somewhat superfluous."
Hearing Oriel's boastful words about the new owners of the Ascension and Soul Fusion Talents in the guest hall, Iron Hammer worried if this contact between the two would lead to some unexpected incidents.
Fortunately, it now appeared no such terrible situation would arise.
"Compared to Oriel, I'm more curious about that orb," Leonhardt laughed on the other side. "It looks somewhat similar to the beast eggs that hatched Little Black and Little White but not exactly the same."
"If it could also hatch a Spiritual Beast, I wonder what would come out."
The topic piqued the interest of the other members, who had all touched the orb just before. Now, exchanging thoughts, they began to speculate one after the other.
With everyone's help, Spoon quickly prepared a lavish feast.
As soon as the dishes were served, Oriel dragged Evelyn straight over.
"It smells so good!" Her light green eyes almost turned dark green, as she couldn't help but swallow her saliva vigorously, eyeing the large plate of roast beast leg placed right at the center of the table.
Compared to that, what was she eating every day at the Secret Silver Dagger Guild?
She, Oriel, had to eat her fill today before leaving!
-----------------
When Qin Chuan, Lin Yue, and Zefina finished discussing the details of the cooperation and stepped out of the reception room, the first thing they saw was the sight of Oriel and Evelyn competing for a beast leg.
The slightly serious atmosphere among the three of them instantly dissipated.
"Sorry, Oriel she…" Zefina helplessly covered her forehead.
"It seems Oriel really likes Spoon's cooking," Lin Yue smiled. "Why not have a meal before you leave? Spoon's cooking won't disappoint you."
"Then I'll humbly accept your offer," Zefina nodded slightly, not refusing.
The next moment, she noticed the Holy Spirit Embryo placed on another open space.
"That's the loot from your SS rank Secret Realm?" Zefina became curious. "A beast egg?"
"This is an embryo. Of course, I don't know what's the difference between it and a beast egg," Qin Chuan spread his hands. "Anyway, we have to hatch it first."
"Spiritual Beasts from Secret Realms are all very special," Zefina smiled. "Congratulations in advance for acquiring a new powerful Spiritual Beast."
Spoon's prepared banquet received unanimous praise. Feeling satisfied with ample food and drink, Zefina no longer lingered. She took her leave, pulling along Oriel, who seemed as if she wanted to live here.
Watching the two leave, Lin Yue spoke softly, "Do you think…the information Sfin Gard revealed to Zefina is true?"
"Which aspect are you talking about?" Qin Chuan turned to look at Lin Yue.
"The relationship between the Heavenly Dome Rank and the Dream World."
"That…" Qin Chuan showed a contemplative expression.
Truthfully, he was also surprised when Zefina mentioned "the Dream World is the lowest layer of the Heavenly Dome Rank and is also a part of it."
He had always regarded the two as separate entities.
After all, according to the analysis by Feng Yin before, the Clans on the Heavenly Dome Rank tried to invade Blue Star, whereas the Dream World protected it; they should be opposed.
If Sfin Gard was right, then all their previous speculations would be overturned.
But Sfin Gard's statement also had a key piece of evidence.
That was, in the instance pathways, Dungeon Talents would revert to Player Talents.
After pondering for a moment, Qin Chuan spoke softly, "Let's take it one step at a time."
Regardless of the actual relationship between the two, the most important thing at the current stage was to resist the incoming instances. He believed that once his strength reached a certain level, the mysteries would naturally be revealed.
"Mhm," Lin Yue nodded lightly. "I'm planning on having Little White Breakthrough right now."
"For the resources we lack, we can exchange Personal Points."
"Not waiting for tomorrow?" Qin Chuan looked at Lin Yue.
Even without spending points, Little White would be able to Breakthrough smoothly after the raid on the Secret Realm tomorrow.
"Not waiting," Lin Yue shook her head. "Sfin Gard poses a significant threat, and I'm afraid that waiting until tomorrow to Breakthrough might affect the plan to eliminate him."
"The sooner I am promoted to Epic Rank, the more I can help you."
As soon as she finished speaking, she unhesitatingly exchanged for four Epic Rank resources in the Guild Store.
Moments later, amid the dazzling light, Little White let out an exhilarating Dragon roar. The momentum soared, and as the light faded, its size had caught up with Little Black, and around the unique horn on its head was a radiant gold crown, with the long tail adorned with a magnificent gold gemstone.
With Little White's promotion to the Epic Rank, Lin Yue became an Epic Rank player after Qin Chuan.

The plot is a bit stuck, one update for today.
