Chapter 164: Achievement ‘my Life Is Mine To Control’
Yu Jiang picked up a bottle of green and thick Mysterious Potion and sniffed it first.
Way too intense, straight to the crown of the head.
She suspected this stuff was the venom of a poison toad, chugging it down was still quite challenging.
Yu Jiang took a deep breath, psyching herself up—smelly and bad taste weren’t issues, as long as it improved her strength, bottoms up!
She raised the cup, closed her eyes, and tilted her head back to pour it in,
The taste, how to put it… bad, but not to the point of being unbearable.
What she couldn’t tolerate was not getting the permanent buff!
[Wow, seems poisoned, but no big deal, won’t drop health points, just 5 health value, duration 4 hours (Detox Pill cannot remove)]
In Yu Jiang’s player status, a green dizzy and nauseous sticker pack was added, and now the leaves outside the window had double images, head heavy and feet light.
She adjusted her mindset and picked up another bottle.
Anyway, already had the poison buff, what was there to fear? She didn’t believe it could poison her to death?!
Another gulp, poisoned again, duration didn’t increase, just the buff stacked one more layer, head dizzier, stomach uncomfortable.
Continue, third bottle, still poison.
Not angry, not angry, getting angry would make her sick with no one to replace her—Yu Jiang laughed, angrily.
Fourth bottle, her face was all green from drinking.
Finally! Got the permanent buff.
[Player consumed Mysterious Potion, feels full of strength, overall fitness +5, insect poison resistance level +1 (debuffs from intermediate poisonous monsters seem useless on you~)]
[Alchemist using Mysterious Potion has 88% chance of getting buff, you actually chugged 4 bottles, stacked three layers of poison buff, didn’t it taste bad?
Player obtained achievement ‘My Life By Me’,
Reward: Detox Pill upgrade scroll (one is better than two!)]
Yu Jiang: .Bad taste is secondary, mainly heart aching, one less Mysterious Potion means one less profit.
Good thing the reward scroll can make up for some losses, upgraded Detox Pill has two more medicinal herbs, effect is top-notch, price hike, definitely price hike!
In the team channel, the atmosphere was especially cheerful at this moment.
Sad Pig Intestine asked if anyone wanted mixed noodles tonight, cold noodles too.
Pure Love Cockroach Spicy Spicy said getting a brand new upgraded weapon was too exciting, treating everyone to a tune.
Then a bewitching melody floated out, shocking the channel into silence, Yu Jiang’s groggy head cleared up.
Lightning Mage King: “Good! But, Sister Lang, we’re all teammates.”
Hand Holding Cleaver Chopping Wire: “Little sis, your skill penetrated the light screen? Why are my feet shaking?”
Purple Butt Can Do It: “Is this why I can’t become a wandering artist?”
Han Jiang Gu Ying: “What song, kinda intense.”
X: “.”
Pure Love Cockroach Spicy Spicy sang a line: “Fake smokes fake booze fake friends, this song.”
“I need an achievement, gotta have ten players hear my performance, so… skill can’t pass through light screen, Cleaver Brother, maybe you shook yourself?”
Hand Holding Cleaver Chopping Wire: “Don’t say, it really is, your suona is powerful.”
Yu Jiang: “@Sad Pig Intestine, I want cold noodles and cold skin, just got poisoned, at first thought it was a serious hallucination.”
Shi Xu: “Poisoned? Who?”
She could not only poison teammates, now poisoning herself too.
Yu Jiang shared her 3-layer debuff, teammates immediately showed respect.
Normal players would be dizzy and staggering at 2 layers, she was holding 3 layers, health value down 15 points, seeming fine.
Purple Butt Can Do It: “Sis, you’re too hardcore.”
Yu Jiang briefly explained to everyone, didn’t recommend they gamble, potion expensive, 95% poison chance for non-alchemists, not worth it.
“@Purple Butt Can Do It, if you wanna gamble, give it a try.”
Purple Butt Can Do It sent a sticker pack pointing back at himself, “Me?”
Then, he thought seriously and said, “What price? Let me see.”
Permanent buff is a rare opportunity for non-combat players like him, he was a bit tempted.
“Wait till I sort out supplies, talk later.”
Yu Jiang enduring the stacked debuffs like a game over, it wasn’t not uncomfortable, saying to sort supplies was just habitual, no need to say if not wanting to.
She planned to rest first, deal after 4 hours, afraid dizziness would lead to wrong price on trading platform, better to arrange people for auction too.
Sad Pig Intestine: “Sister Jiang, I have a few small pumpkins, sending you one, good for stomach.”
Then she received the cold mixed noodles and cold skin she bought, plus a steamed small pumpkin.
Yu Jiang: “Thanks, Intestine.”
Team trades weren’t too fussy, she usually gave friendly price, might send extras, same for everyone.
Yu Jiang half-lay on the sofa, planning to rest first, 4 bottles of Mysterious Potion messed up her taste buds like a beating, eat with late-night snack later.
Shi Xu private chatted, “Need a healer to clear 3-layer poison buff? I’ll go with you to parallel road.”
Sky not fully dark yet, with their reputation finding a healer easy, her state needed teaming to prevent trouble.
“Nah, evening parallel road too risky, map full of blind spots.” Yu Jiang thought and continued, “I’m fine.”
Shi Xu: “Mm, good then.”
Yu Jiang closed her eyes to rest, last bit of daylight outside vanished in the endless rainforest, night fell, insect chirps and rustling sounds around the car.
This feeling really unpleasant, after 4 hours, Yu Jiang soaked in sweat, like just fished out of water.
Health value gradually recovered, body felt lighter.
Yu Jiang grabbed clean clothes, took a shower first, she liked feeling comfy before enjoying food.
Out of the bathroom, head clear too, she replied to Purple Butt Can Do It,
“Want to trade for solar panel upgrade card or washing machine upgrade parts also fine, if you need a second bottle, cheap 100 crystal coins, but say early, only 6 bottles left total.”
Washing machine upgrade saves energy, has drying, cleaning won’t affect clothing loss.
Purple Butt Can Do It: “No problem, saw washing machine upgrade parts before, will collect soon, been opening boxes these days no good stuff, wonder luck today.”
“Planning auction, sell Mysterious Potion high to first echelon healers.” Yu Jiang switched to team channel.
Before she finished, teammates got it.
Strawberry Candy: “Got it! I’ll cooperate on bidding.”
Lightning Mage King, Kuang Kuang Kuang and others responded, “Us too, probably no one knows we’re together, unlike X and Han Jiang big shot more eye-catching.”
Yu Jiang smiled, “Purple Butt Can Do It will say when to bid later, thanks everyone.”
Controlling auction rhythm needs dedicated people.
After Purple Butt Can Do It told the merchant caravan side, Yu Jiang opened the public screen.
