Lord of Mysterious Wizard-Chapter 229 - Moon Stealer
Chapter 229: Chapter 229 Moon Stealer
“Esteemed guest, what would you like to order? The first drink is on me.”
Tang Qi turned around and heard Savoy, wearing a bronze mask, speaking in a mysterious tone. It still had six arms, except there was now a bulge around its waist, indicating that a seventh arm was about to sprout.
However, the reason for its generous offer was certainly not because of its development, but rather because it recognized Tang Qi.
Despite the misty cover, this Six-Armed Bartender was somewhat different.
Tang Qi was not surprised, nor did he feel anything else. Among Special Abilities, this was an Abnormality that had no other pursuit than brewing exquisite drinks, and it belonged to the Permanent Neutral Camp.
“New drink menu!”
Tang Qi’s gaze moved past the bartender, settling on the wall behind.
The old wooden board there had been replaced, and both the drink and food menus were updated.
The Extraordinary Drinks menu had been expanded beyond the previously available Mysterious Cocktails, Snake’s Eye, Warm Dawn, Venus’ Kiss, and Heart of Chaos, by adding three new drinks: Flame Red Wine, Moon Stealer, and Unicorn’s Blood.
“Since someone’s offering, I won’t be polite — a glass of Snake’s Eye that I’ve never tried before, and a new drink… the Moon Stealer!”
Tang Qi smiled, accepting Savoy’s kindness without refusal, casually ordering two glasses of Extraordinary Drinks. As always, Tang Qi did not have to wait long. After the illusory movements of six arms before his eyes, two glasses of differently colored, distinctly fragrant drinks appeared in front of him.
One was completely green, looking incredibly healthy, more like a fruit and vegetable juice than an Extraordinary Wine. However, after gazing at it for more than a second, slender eyes emitting a ghostly light slowly opened within the green liquid.
For a moment, it seemed as though the drink was steeped with a dozen snake eyes.
But in the blink of an eye, all these Anomalies disappeared.
The appearance of “Moon Stealer” was much more appealing.
The drink, resembling cola, had a “thing” floating in it, similar to a full moon, with a texture like ice but without emanating any coldness. Instead, it seemed to absorb light, bit by bit, vanishing.
“Looks interesting.”
Tang Qi seemed intrigued and reactivated his Special Ability.
At the bottom of his eyes, two special visions were concurrently formed.
[Curios: Snake’s Eye, a concoction prepared by the Abnormal Bartender Savoy. Based on tequila, it includes Green Fluorescent Grass Juice, multi-eyed snake eyes, lemon juice… Consuming it will heal bodily or mental damage; the effect varies from individual to individual.]
[Curios: Moon Stealer, also mixed by the Abnormal Bartender Savoy. Based on Sulan whiskey, it includes Moon Stone, black octopus bile, honey… Upon consumption, it randomly steals a positive or negative emotion, with equal chances for each.]

Unexpectedly, the frightening-sounding “Snake’s Eye” was an Extraordinary Wine capable of healing injuries.
And the Moon Stealer also seemed very interesting.
Tang Qi’s eyelids drooped as he turned off his ability. While listening to the boasts of other Transcendents around him, he first lifted the glass of Snake’s Eye and finished it in one gulp.
Huh!
Unlike the previous three glasses of Extraordinary Wine, Tang Qi felt exceptionally comfortable this time, as if a gentle breeze had wafted over, enveloping his body and softly caressing him, creating a warm, comfortable sensation.
Tang Qi reckoned that neither his body nor spirit had any damages. Yet, the moment he put down the glass, he indeed felt much more comfortable.
Without hesitation, he then picked up the “Moon Stealer” and poured it into his mouth. The moment the drink touched his lips, Tang Qi didn’t feel the presence of the Moon Stone – perhaps it was stolen in an instant. He felt an emotion being stolen along with it but couldn’t tell which one yet.
But the next moment, as soon as he set down the glass, an intense impulse arose in his mind, revealing the answer.
Tang Qi, at this moment, suddenly felt like slouching against the bar in a state of decay, wanting Savoy to bring up all the drinks; he desired to be stumbling drunk, to drink until he could drink no more because he felt his future was bleak, just like a salted fish.
“Reborn for so long, and still seems to be a virgin, although famous, but not my true body, got a pet, yet it’s not a cute and beautiful centaur girl, my casting mainly relies on soaking, haven’t even successfully challenged the most basic Secret Medicine Apprentice…”
“Buzz”
Just as these depressed and incredible thoughts emerged, Tang Qi swiftly suppressed them with his overwhelming spiritual power. At the same time, with a movement of the Melting Furnace Power within him, a murky aura was burned away to nothing, and in an instant, Tang Qi had recovered.
Now he knew what emotions had been stolen from him, but he didn’t want to say.
Silently, Tang Qi paid for the second drink, which was the fee for the Moon Stealer, then ignored the boasts about himself within the bar and courageously walked out.
“Underage, really shouldn’t be drinking.”
Muttering to himself in a low voice, Tang Qi walked straight towards the Intelligence Cabin across the street.
He didn’t actually come to the marketplace tonight with nothing better to do.
On his agenda, there was still one thing for him to do here, which was to spend money.
More precisely, to find something.
The rubber fruit!
One of the so-called three basic Secret Medicines in the Original Secret Medicine School, the Rubber Man Secret Medicine.
Its difficulty utterly crushes the other two, Spirit Communication, and Wind’s Language Secret Medicines, not only in terms of preparation difficulty but even more so in finding materials.
For the first two, if Tang Qi wanted to prepare them, he could do it at any time.
But not for Rubber Man Secret Medicine, its main ingredient, an Extraordinary Material known as “rubber fruit,” is extremely rare within the Divine Eagle Federation.
If Tang Qi wanted to prepare Rubber Man Secret Medicine, it seems he must head to the birthplace of the Original Secret Medicine School, which is an incredibly vast, pristine jungle. This area is not only where the Original Secret Medicine School originated but also the birthplace of countless Mysterious forces.
With his current strength, entering that place, he would likely become prey at the bottom of the “Mysterious Side food chain.” If Tang Qi’s only Source of Power were that of a Secret Alchemist, then naturally he would not have many choices.
Unfortunately, Secret Medicine is not the highest priority among his current Skills.
Therefore, Tang Qi decided to trust in the power of Divine Grace and once again entered the humble wooden house.
He walked straight to the dimly lit chandelier, pulled back a chair and sat down, a breeze appeared, and the Mysterious shadow cloaked in a black cloak appeared in front of Tang Qi as expected.
The Shadow Servant!
Having traded before, Tang Qi didn’t waste time and directly stated his request.
“I need to know, within the territory of the Divine Eagle Federation, where can I acquire the Extraordinary Material produced by the Yama Jungle, the rubber fruit?”
After saying this, Tang Qi looked at the Shadow Servant.
Unlike the quick agreement last time, the Shadow Servant suddenly vanished for a moment, then reappeared rapidly, and with a hint of regret said, “Esteemed customer, it is with regret that the rubber fruit is an extremely rare material. Because it has very few uses, it seems only some Special Secret Medicine Schools need it, so it has not yet entered the Divine Eagle Federation.”
After speaking, the servant paused for a moment, then continued, “However, the organization has plans to expand into the Southern Federation Region shortly and may open a new marketplace in Sweet Water City. If the customer is willing to issue a reward, maybe there will be good news after some time.”
“Of course, the resulting bounty, transportation costs, and other fees will be solely borne by the customer.”
“Let’s do it, sign the contract!”
Without hesitation, Tang Qi directly agreed.
