Chapter 126: Hundred Herbs Tea

First World is in a rare situation where multiple events were happening simultaneously.

Event overload.

The Name of the Rabbit Event

The Yaoguai Festival Event

The Festival of Ten Thousand Flowers Event

Normally, no game would have two festivals running at the same time like this; it makes it difficult for players who have limited time.

Excluding The Name of the Rabbit, it seems that the main content of the event hasn't been revealed yet.

Both festival events are "packages" containing many different sub-events.

The Yaoguai Festival roughly includes 5 smaller activities.

Yaoguai Cuisine: The food stalls in the City of Thousand Tails change every day, providing experience buffs and exchange rewards.

Collecting Yaoguai's Power Remnants for prizes

Mystical Shop offers many good items.

The Yaoguai Festival – happening in 2 days.

Thousand Tails Coin...

Many players say that it is related to the fifth event in the Yaoguai Festival package.

But no one knows the details clearly.

Hmm.

No One took a coin out from his inventory to examine it.

He planned to meet the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King later to ask a bit about it.

. . .

"Darn it, it's so spicy!!!" Lady Lam cried out.

"How can something in a game be this spicy...?" Cherished Dream's face was already drenched with sweat.

"Spicy, isn't it? Ha ha! It's a specialty of the City of Thousand Tails! Do you know even the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King loves the spicy noodles I cook?"

At that moment, the Rooster King was cooking spicy noodles while laughing heartily at the two people's suffering.

This is part of the Yaoguai Cuisine side event. Every day, players can enjoy a free meal at the food stalls in the City of Thousand Tails and receive a random gift ticket as a reward, which can be quite generous.

However, the target for many is the Spicy Noodle Amulet of Rooster King.

As the name suggests, the amulet depicts the Rooster King with his exceptional spicy noodle dish. It's practically an advertisement item.

But its effects are quite impressive.

【Spicy Noodle Amulet of Rooster King】

【An amulet carved by the top artisan of the City of Thousand Tails, featuring the spicy noodle dish favored by the Rooster King.】

【Effect: Spicy Noodle Warrior! Receive a Rooster King's Spicy Noodle Bowl each day; consuming it increases attack by 25% and movement speed by 10% for 1 hour.】

【Effect: Indomitable Spicy Noodle Warrior! After consuming the Rooster King's Spicy Noodle Bowl, gain a damage-resistant shield until it's broken. While the shield is active, damage increases by 10%.】

Two lines of effects.

The amulet's special feature is the ability to "give a spicy noodle bowl daily."

Players can equip it before logging off the game, and upon returning the next day, they'll have a spicy noodle bowl in their inventory.When in battle, eat it to gain the effects.

Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

Then... just take the amulet off.

Wear a different amulet.

The buff effect from the Chicken King's Spicy Noodle Bowl isn't bad at all.

"Tastes good, right!? Ha ha! Everyone Yaoguais loves my noodles! This is your reward."

Both of them received a 【Spicy Noodle Reward Ticket】.

Activating this item will randomly open an item from the reward gacha pool.

Too many gacha...

"Shall we open it together, guild leader?"

"Let's do it."

Lady Lam and Cherished Dream also nodded and tore the ticket to activate it.

A burst of fireworks exploded, and then items appeared in their hands.

"What is this? Rooster King Headgear? Isn't the lion head enough?" Lady Lam sighed.

"Cherished Dream, what did you ge- what the heck is that!?"

Cherished Dream stared blankly at the Rooster King Amulet in his hand.

"G-Guild leader... let me explain!!!"

"Recently, I've felt a bit unlucky, Cherished Dream, you've opened two Epic items in two days, you must have stolen my luck, right?"

"I did not!"

"You did!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

...

Cherished Dream was cut off from the 500 million Gold reward fund Lady Lam earned from Heaven's Pride.

The Rabbit Yaoguai hopped swiftly.

Leading No One inside.

Previously, No One had seen the palace of the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King, but this time it still looked grand.

At a glance, it seemed no different from an ancient Emperor's palace.

Only it had a much more ethereal feel to it.

There were many rock gardens with gently cascading water.

There were even many small streams visible on the path to the Grand Hall.

The Yaoguais here seemed quite busy, occasionally you would see some beast-shaped Yaoguais passing by.

"Thousand Tails Yaoguai King! No One has arrived!"

The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King waved them in.

No One stood before the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King and bowed.

"Greetings, Thousand Tails Yaoguai King, may I ask why you summoned me today?"

The Thousand Tails took a cup of tea, drank a sip, and spoke gently.

"The song that my sister, Heavenly Demon In Black sang... was it from you?"

"Sister?" No One thought to himself.

Is my Master that close to the Heavenly Demon In Black?

"Yes," he replied.

"Did you write it?" The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King was intrigued.

"No. It is a song from a distant lands."

"It is one of the old songs from those distant lands that I deeply appreciate."

"If you like, I can let you listen to some of the songs I have with me," No One offered.

As he spoke, No One took out the Musical Cubes he was carrying from his inventory.

"Alright."

More than a dozen Musical Cubes were handed over to the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King.

Unexpectedly, she was interested in them.

"Hmm...~"

The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King opened each Musical Cube to listen.

"Not bad."

"I suppose you have an idea of why I invited you here, don't you?"

"Is it related to these songs...?" No One asked.

The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King nodded.

"Thank you as well. It's been a long time since I've heard my sister sing."

"She still sings beautifully, just like in the old days."

"I wouldn't dare claim credit; it's just something a disciple should do," No One humbly replied, clasping his hands in salute.

"You were quite charming back then, hmm? Ah."

"you better treat my dear master well~" she teased.

No One blushed deeply.

"Ah... That...!"

"Please don't mention that."

That chuunibyou moment of his had already become legendary.

"Why not! I would love to steal you as a disciple, such disciples aren't easy to find."

"You're too kind. Miss Snow Moon is by no means inferior to me."

He had not yet cried so much for his Master.

The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King smiled, covering her mouth.

Throughout the conversation, she listened to the music that No One provided.

"While I'm enjoying the music, if you have any questions you're curious about, feel free to ask."

"Come here and join me for tea, don't be shy."

As she spoke, the Thousand Tails walked on the floating water to the center of the Grand Hall.

From the cracks, streams of water flowed upward, twisting together to form a table and chairs.

"Will it be wet to sit...?"

"For me, no; for you, perhaps a little," the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King chuckled.

The Yaoguai Rabbit immediately laid a mat over the water-crafted chair.

The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King's fur and attire were waterproof, so these items had no effect on her.

Thanks to the mat, No One's attire also stayed dry.

The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King gently waved her hand, pouring tea into a cup for No One.

"Having a chat with my sister's disciple should be quite interesting."

No One carefully brought the cup to his lips and took a sip.

Oh...!

Delicious tea...!

But then...

A buff effect appeared.

【Hundred Herbs Tea】

【Tea made from a hundred types of herbs rival the quality of elixir. It soothes the poison within the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King.】

【Within the room 5 minutes after drinking, all defense stats +1000%】

【Within the room 5 minutes after drinking, all recovery stats +1000%】

【Within the room 5 minutes after drinking, gain one immunity from death.】

What on earth is this?

The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King...

She drinks this like it's plain water.

What kind of properties are these?

If this tea were sold, players would be scrambling to buy it.

"Lord Thousand Tails Yaoguai King... this tea... why is it so powerful?"

"Just call me Amethyst, there's no need for such formality. Snow Moon also advised the same. Disciples of our master are not outsiders."

"Oh... Aunt Amethyst."

Amethyst glared at him.

"Aunt..."

"That's too old."

"Ah..."Sister Amethyst."

"That'll do." She smiled.
