Chapter 119 After Two Hours

Two hours later, in a certain single-player script of moderate difficulty.

"This place is sure hard to find." Feng Bujue stepped into the dark and gloomy basement and spoke to the darkness.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

In the next second, a gust of wind swept through, and two rows of candles on either side of the basement lit themselves.

The candlelight illuminated the somewhat narrow space and revealed three eerie shadows.

"I already sent Dian San and Dao Si to pick you up, but the two of them seem to have gotten lost themselves..." Samodir continued.

Being the tallest of the three, he could only sit on the ground in this space; if he stood up straight, his horns would poke the ceiling.

"Heh... as expected of Mad Moxxi, you didn't need our people to guide you... and still managed to overcome all the obstacles to get here." The next to speak was Taliohm.

He was still the same as ever, wearing a black robe and a gorgeous cloak. His pale face and unique "double pupils" were always shrewdly glancing at others.

"Long time no see, Mad Moxxi." The last to respond to Jue-ge was a huge spiritual skull – Duo Ling. "If I remember correctly, the last time we met, you borrowed something from me, and you still haven't returned it..."

"The [Mo Yao Ling Shu] no longer exists. Even if I wanted to return it to you, I couldn't." Feng Bujue shrugged in response. "However... I'm a pretty trustworthy guy. As the saying goes, what's borrowed must be returned, and it's easier to borrow again. To compensate you for your loss, I'll give you something of comparable value." As he spoke, he took out an item from his knapsack and handed it to Duo Ling.

"This..." Duo Ling glanced at it, "...could it be the legendary 'Wo Cao Lei Nao De Zhu Gu' (Holy Crap, I Can Hold It Mushroom)!"

"Yes, I got this thing by chance a long time ago, but I haven't found a suitable opportunity to use it." Jue-ge paused. "I thought about it, and I'll use this to compensate you for the loss of your [Mo Yao Ling Shu]."

It was previously mentioned that Feng Bujue obtained the [Wo Cao Lei Nao De Zhu Gu] in a "Ukiyo-e style grotesque script," and it was described as a "mushroom that can remove multiple negative statuses," but the specific description of the item was not listed.

Here, let's reveal it...

[Name: Wo Cao Lei Nao De Zhu Gu]
[Type: Consumable]
[Quality: ???]
[Effect 1: The God of Haiku is watching over me! (When the player swallows this mushroom, all mental negative statuses can be removed)]
[Effect 2: I'm adding mushrooms for you~ (Permanently changes the art style of one NPC)]
[Remarks: A mysterious mushroom that grows in northeastern a certain country.]

After reading the description of this item, I believe everyone understands... like [Chuck Norris's Shaving Razor], this is an "ultra-limited" item. Its quality cannot be defined, probably because the value of its two effects are completely different.

For players, this mushroom is at most "Excellent" grade, but for those NPCs, it must be a "Legendary" grade divine object.

"Although I also think... do not do to others what you do not want done to yourself." Feng Bujue pretended to wave the mushroom in front of Duo Ling. "But... some things have different values in different people's eyes..."

"Alright, stop talking nonsense." Duo Ling was very shrewd, and he already knew what Feng Bujue was going to say next, so he directly interrupted him. "We're all smart people, no need to beat around the bush with me..." He stated bluntly, "As long as you give me the mushroom, the matter of the Mo Yao Ling Shu is written off, and... I can also give you something else in exchange."

"Then it's settled." Jue-ge said, opening his palm.

Duo Ling immediately used telekinesis to take the [Wo Cao Lei Nao De Zhu Gu] and absorb it into his own "mind space."

Two seconds later, he spoke again: "Aren't you afraid that I'll take the thing... and go back on my word?"

"Heh..." Feng Bujue replied with a relaxed expression, "Cooperation is based on mutual trust... If you're the kind of person who would break your promise for petty gains, then we don't need to continue talking."

"Hmph hmph hmph..." Taliohm sneered from the side, "Not only is your Excellency very smart... but you're also very good at talking..."

Duo Ling coldly responded, "Whether the Illusory Demon Church will cooperate with you is still to be discussed... but I certainly wouldn't break my promise on such a small matter..." As he said this, he took out another item from his mind space and manipulated it to float in front of Jue-ge.

Feng Bujue took it and opened the game menu to take a look...

[Name: Chuck Norris's Autobiography]
[Type: Other]
[Quality: Legendary]
[Effect: Everything you want to know is here]
[Can be taken out of this script: Yes]
[Remarks: One of the "CN" series of items, recording one of Chuck Norris's 100 well-known facts, bound upon pickup.

——Chuck Norris isn't really writing a book, the words are just organizing themselves out of fear.]

"When you unsealed the curse on 'Fu Ling', you also found a similar item, right?" After Duo Ling handed the book to Feng Bujue, he continued, "Then you should also know how valuable these items are to you otherworldly travelers."

"Oh? You also know about 'Fu Ling'?" Feng Bujue asked, feigning surprise.

"Hmph..." Duo Ling sneered, "Why are you pretending with me?" His tone gradually turned cold as he said this, "With your intelligence, you must have already deduced... that her transformation into that state was all caused by me."

"Heh... alright, let's talk about those things later." Feng Bujue said, putting the book into his knapsack, "Let's talk about the finals of the Peak Tournament... that is, the 'Ragnarok' 'game'."

"Before that..." Samodir spoke up at this moment, "I wanted to ask as soon as you entered the basement... At this moment, shouldn't you and your companions be competing on some planet (because all the All-Out Brawl of the Four Realms matches start at the same time, and they all take place in Thriller Paradise's main universe, there is a possibility that multiple teams will meet in the same world; to avoid this situation, each team is usually teleported to a different planet)?"

"Oh... that..." Feng Bujue said, "That match started two hours (game time) ago, and our team won after thirty minutes, so..." He spread his hands, the rest was self-explanatory.
