Chapter 198 -198 Tyrone Tree Beer and the Unexpected Name
After the turmoil of the day, the atmosphere in Messer City became somewhat abnormal as night fell. Although “Mayor Ross” came out in time to soothe the unsettled citizens, they were not fools and could naturally sense that something was amiss in Messer City.
Therefore, aside from the Central District, the other districts were extremely quiet.
Especially the Blank District, which was still shuttered with few pedestrians to be seen.
In such an atmosphere, Tang Qi silently left the city area, changed his clothes in a secluded spot in the suburbs, and once again entered the Rotten Truffle Forest as his “Second Body”. It was still the abandoned estate and the Ghost Carriage.
Soon, Tang Qi saw the increasingly familiar Mysterious Valley.
This chapt𝒆r is updated by frёewebηovel.cѳm.
At the entrance, Tang Qi marked himself and took the opportunity to refresh his seal.
It was either he had come later this time or the other Transcendents had arrived early because, just as night had fallen, the place was already bustling.
Beneath those black trees and rugged rocks, wisps of fog clung persistently.
At a glance, there were at least dozens of stalls.
At the end of the valley, the three wooden houses—Contract, Appraisal, and Information—had all lit up with dim lights, indicating the presence of visitors.
Naturally, the busiest spot without a doubt was the newly opened “Mysterious Bar”.
Even from a great distance, the noise emanating from the refined wooden house could vaguely be heard.
It was even more bustling than last time.
Although Tang Qi was very interested in continuing to taste Savoy’s Extraordinary Drinks and Food and was curious to see if it had grown another new arm, after thinking it over, he decided that it was still more important to take care of business first.
Having already chosen the “Demon Hunting” and “Petrification” Extraordinary Bullets, he started his attempts straight away.
The first step was naturally gathering materials.
Unlike Tang Qi’s naïve and accidental success with the Soaking Method, the casting method obtained from the black-haired woman was a very authentic casting method.
Tang Qi not only had to engrave corresponding magic runes on each bullet, but he also needed to add some special materials inside the bullets. The process was very complex, especially for the Petrification Bullets.
Tang Qi was full of enthusiasm as it was his first attempt at an authentic casting method.
While muttering the required materials for both types of bullets inwardly, he browsed through the stalls one by one.
He was not just collecting materials but also looking for hidden treasures.
Both activities were quite enjoyable.
As the most mainstream type of Extraordinary Bullet, the Demon Hunting Bullets required materials that were not too rare. Tang Qi did not expend much effort and had gathered all necessary materials after browsing through seven or eight stalls.
However, finding materials for the Petrification Bullet proved to be more challenging.
As he was about to finish browsing the market without much success, Tang Qi wondered if he needed to trade with the Ancient Castle Bureau again.
“Hmm?”
Just as this thought arose, Tang Qi had come to a stall.
The stall owner was the Ghost Stall Owner he had encountered once before.
Still sporting the look of an explorer, with snow-white beard, floating in mid-air.
His stall displayed a variety of “fresh antiques”.
Among these things, one almost immediately caught Tang Qi’s attention. Fortunately, Tang Qi was enveloped in fog, preventing the Ghost Stall Owner from seeing his expression, otherwise, he’d inevitably face a harsh bargaining.
Even without noticing, Tang Qi, with the experience from their last encounter, was well aware that this seemingly trustworthy Ghost Stall Owner was actually a cunning fellow.
The two of them were similar in this regard.
What Tang Qi saw was a fossil.
Palm-sized, it contained the outline of an ancient small herb.
The fossil was inlaid with gold and had a base, obviously a burial item of a collector of such items.
Regarding the Petrification Bullet, the main material was not limited to one specific kind; several types of Extraordinary Materials possessing “Petrification Power” were recognized for use in casting.
Right before him, was exactly one of those materials.
And it was the kind that worked well.
[Curios: Medusa Grass Fossil.]
[State: Complete.]
[Information Fragment: The Medusa Grass has become fossilized, its Extraordinary Power merging with the fossil itself. This has caused its Level to continuously plummet, yet it can still be used in crafting Secret Medicines, castings, or for other purposes.]
Having confirmed the material, Tang Qi did not entangle with the Ghost Stall Owner any further.
He simply knocked the seller out with money and took away the fossil.
The old ghost was unaware of the origin of the Medusa Grass within the fossil, vaguely feeling it was a nice antique.
Being able to “fleece” a customer made the old ghost feel very pleased.
Little did he know, for Tang Qi at this moment, anything solvable with money wasn’t an issue at all. Besides, the old ghost had grossly miscalculated the value, resulting in a huge loss.
After acquiring the fossil, Tang Qi continued on his way.
However, his luck seemed to run out after that. Tang Qi didn’t mind; he never deluded himself into thinking that each visit to the market would yield a great haul. Having collected the materials for crafting two types of Extraordinary Bullets, he had already accomplished his goal.
Shrugging his shoulders, Tang Qi stepped into the Mysterious Bar at the end of the Valley.
As soon as he entered, a strong scent mixed with noisy, boisterous sounds surged towards him, a smell that hadn’t been present last time, as well as the commotion that was absent before.
Tang Qi’s gaze immediately went to the bar and those tables, where cups of very eye-catching “drinks” immediately caught his attention. Huge glasses were filled with a yellow liquid, topped with a dense white foam-like substance.
Beer?
Tang Qi was slightly taken aback, if not for the ongoing generation of various Transcendent images at the bottom of his eyes, he would have thought he had entered an ordinary bar.
That was until the next moment, another image formed at the bottom of Tang Qi’s eyes.
[Curios: Tyrone Tree Beer.]
[Information Fragment One: Brewed by the Abnormal bartender Savoy, its main ingredient is the white liquid extracted from tree tumors produced in the Tyrone Ancient Trees on the Bania Islands. It has a milk-like texture and provides a massive amount of calories. It is a terrible Hallucination Poison Liquid for Humans, but for Extraordinary Creatures, it is a special form of alcohol.]
[Information Fragment Two: Drinking large amounts of Tyrone Tree Beer, just like how ordinary Humans would feel after consuming lots of beer, would result in pleasure, excitement, confusion, sleepiness, nausea… and other various symptoms.]
[Information Fragment Three: Compared to those cocktails that require mixing, its price is very cheap.]
…
Without a doubt, the Mysterious Bar had found a true path to riches.
Even if the price of this Extraordinary Beer wasn’t as high as that of Mysterious Cocktails, judging by the atmosphere in the bar which was now multiplied in enthusiasm, and the Transcendents starting to go wild from the alcohol, it was clear how right a decision it was to sell this Tree Beer.
Presumably, Savoy was also very satisfied with this scene.
Sure enough, as Tang Qi approached the bar, that face with the bronze mask once again drew close.
“Guest, we meet again.”
“Would you like to try Savoy’s new creation, the warm and sweet Tyrone Tree Beer, brewed with the freshest juice from the tree tumors of the Tyrone Ancient Trees? Those poor natives of the Bania Islands, for this white liquid, would rather brave the icy wilderness to lick it from the forest, only to end up intoxicated and dead in the pristine snow.”
“Adorable yet detestable Devil’s Juice, would you like to give it a taste, guest?”
Initially wanting to order a drink to taste, Tang Qi, after hearing Savoy’s description and seeing the Transcendents passed out around him, silently withdrew the thought.
Raising a hand, he pointed towards the drink menu on the wall.
He spoke indifferently, “I would like to continue my journey of surprises; this time I’ll have a glass of Warm Dawn, along with a serving of Fried Lava Fruit.”
“As you wish, my guest.”
Savoy, swaying his six arms, began to mix a new cocktail for Tang Qi.
Three seconds later, a special drink appeared in front of Tang Qi, a pale-liquid with something resembling a “yolk” wrapped in it, from which strands of golden light spilled out, making the drink seem like a freshly risen Sun shrunken countless times and placed inside.
In comparison, the plate of astonishingly fragrant Food beside it seemed not so strange.
Out of a desire for a surprise, he did not use his Special Ability to read the Information Fragments this time.
Instead, he directly picked up the cocktail named “Warm Dawn,” ready to down it in one go.
But at that moment, amidst the surrounding clamor, a name that suddenly emerged caused Tang Qi’s wrist to jerk sharply, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
