Chapter 424 The Gift of the Snowdrift & Hufflepuff's New Invention
Tu Lan selected 20 different languages that Yu Xun Ge didn't know.
But when it came to selecting the last language, Tulan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Should we choose Moonfox Language?"
After all, the deal with Fogblade will take a long time to develop.
Yu Xunge shook his head: "What a waste. We have translators outside, and we can communicate with her in sign language on the battlefield. Besides, if there really is a Moon Fox language in the rules, we can just go and trade with her."
Tu Lan nodded, "That's true, there's no need. Let's continue playing 'Pictionary' with Fog Blade."
After choosing the language, Tu Lan took out a bowl and handed it to Yu Xunge: "This is a gift from Xue Dui, to thank you for taking care of me."
Yu Xunge accepted the Holy Grail's gift, which was half a dragon eggshell. She found that it fit her head perfectly!
The eggshell is light red with some beautiful dark red patterns. There are a few notches along the edge of the eggshell, but the edges of those notches have long been rounded.
Since she got the eggshell, wisps of flame have appeared on it from time to time, as if the eggshell were still alive.
Tulan explained, "These are the shells left behind from dragon eggs that failed to hatch. Snowdrift said you can use them to brew potions or make delicious dishes, and incredible things will happen."
【Sleeping Dragon Eggshell】(Treasure): The eggshell left behind by a baby dragon that dies during the hatching stage. Only creatures blessed by the dragon race can receive this gift. No matter how you use it, it will occasionally surprise you.
It turned out to be the same treasure as the Dragon Ancestor's Reverse Scale from back then.
Yu Xunge: "Don't you want to keep it as a souvenir?"
Tu Lan: "Snowdump said it's been kept long enough, and giving it to a close friend of the dragon clan is the best memento. The little dragon inside can follow us on more adventures. This is Snowdump's child. He said if you like this gift, just take it out and see the world more often."
Without hesitation, Yu Xunge placed a binding stone on it and put it away.
It was only just getting dark, but Yu Xunge wasn't going to be idle: "I'm going to Zelan to find Hechpa, do you want to come?"
"Come on! I brought back a lot of scraps from Dragon Island. Can I sell them to Hufflepuff?"
"Sure, just don't say anything, I'll negotiate the price."
...
Upon arriving in As City, Yu Xunge realized that all the money she had was spent on buying the S-rank skills [Underwater Combat] and [Flash] before entering the World Battlefield, and that Tu Lan had given her the money in the end.
Hufflepuff was still at the same old spot, but it was a bit busy today with a lot of guests of all races. Little Machi was running around taking care of everything.
Yu Xunge, now transformed into a wind scythe, went to help out first. Little Machi collected the money while she helped retrieve the potions the customers wanted from the potion display case.
She discovered that all the customers wanted the same potion, a potion she had never seen or heard of before.
There are two price ranges: the more expensive one costs 2,000 yuan per bottle, while the cheaper one costs 300 yuan.
Little Machi was busy counting her gold coins.
Yu Xunge glanced at the two-thousand-yuan potion in her hand and gasped in shock.
【I Don't Like This Skill II】: Select a Divine Talent Skill no higher than Rank A, apply the potion to the skill description on the game panel, discard the skill, and draw a new Divine Talent Skill. The Divine Talent Skill's level will be the same as your current Divine Talent Level. (Inventor: Hufflepuff)
The cheaper version is called "I Don't Like This Skill I," and it can only change Divine Talent Skills below Grade A.
Yu Xunge: "These were all recently invented by Hufflepuff?"
Little Machi casually explained, "Yeah, didn't you read the Alchemy Daily? Hufflepuff was the headline last week."
She didn't have time to see it, but Yu Xunge was completely convinced. She didn't need it herself, but she wanted to learn it. If the cost of this potion wasn't high, what was the difference between it and the art of alchemy?
In the first year, she didn't like selling things in Zaijiu because resources were scarce there, and draining Zaijiu's players would be equivalent to slowing down the development of her own planet.
But now these players have gradually developed, and at least Dinghai is definitely rich now, and they've been speaking much louder lately.
This busy work lasted for six hours; Tulan even went to watch Hufflepuff brew potions.
However, with the [Clock Reversal] feature, she can seamlessly transition to using the [When you're out and about, your identity is something you created yourself] feature.
After all, the cooldown time is only 4 hours. After using it, she immediately used [Clock Reversal] to reduce the skill cooldown time by 50%, so it only takes 2 hours to cool down.
However, there were a few awkward seconds in between, during which Yu Xunge had to hide beforehand.
She didn't feel that those 6 hours were a waste of time.
Those 16 months of combat training were too much for her. Her brain is now in a state of extreme fatigue. This monotonous job of helping customers get medicine, which doesn't require much brainpower, is actually just right. It allows her brain to relax and unwind.
It wasn't until 2 a.m., when Undercity closed for the day, that Yu Xunge and Little Machi finally had some free time, because all the potions were sold out.
Yu Xunge walked to the table and sat down. There were already dishes that Hedgehog had ordered in advance on the table.
Recalling the intense scene where the customers almost got into a fight over a potion, she casually remarked, "It's a good thing you don't have a rationing system here, otherwise Little Machi and I might have gotten beaten up."
Hedgehog paused in his pouring motion: "What is meant by 'compensation'?"
Yu Xunge took the spoon and bowl from Xiao Maqi, thanked her, and explained, "You have to spend a certain amount of gold coins in the store before you're eligible to buy [I don't like this skill]."
After saying that, she waited for Hufflepuff to be the first to reach for the spoon, but after waiting for a long time, Hufflepuff didn't move. She looked at the undead female mentor in confusion and found that the latter was staring at her with a complicated expression.
Regret, shock, realization, heartbreak, and a myriad of emotions converge into one sentence: Why didn't you say so sooner?!
Tulan was also holding a spoon and bowl, waiting for the meal to be served. Seeing Hedgehog like this, she offered some suggestions:
"Yes, you can also sell blind box potions, which means putting all the potions in a small, undetectable box containing all sorts of potions, the best of which is 'I Don't Like This Skill II', and then you can price them all at 99 gold coins."
Yu Xunge looked at Tu Lan with a look that said, "You're still too green."
"33% chance to use a potion worth around 50 gold coins, 53% chance to use a potion worth 50-100 gold coins, 23% chance to use a potion worth 100-150 gold coins, and the last 1% chance to use [I don't like this skill I]."
Hufflepuff and Maggie listened intently, their breathing slowing down.
Little Machi asked, "Aren't you going to use [I Don't Like This Skill II]?"
Yu Xunge said:
"You can put one box there, and then you can find an undead to buy that box containing the skill 'I don't like this skill II' when the store is busiest, and open it on the spot."
"After all the guests have left, he will return the bottle of 'I Don't Like This Skill II' to you. You can give him a small reward."
"You can probably find an actor to perform once a month, but it's best to have a few different races, and not always the undead."
"And didn't you always say that you have a lot of unpopular potions in the shop that you can't sell? This method can also help you clear out those unpopular potions."
