The last item that Wang Yu revealed was a torn piece of paper, it was a recipe.
<Wine Fermentation: The recipe for the production of the best wine>
“Not another strange thing again… Old Bull’s rotten luck is really something.”.
Seeing the Wine Fermentation recipe, everyone in the crowd sighed.
In ‘Rebirth’, the recipes were usually for medicine, those recipes were also the ones that were in demand, and they were easily sold on the market for a good price.
Recipes such as this one have virtually no market value.
“Anyone like this thing?” Wang Yu waved the recipe about.
The crowd all had the same response, “Take it for yourself.”.
“Alright, since no one wants it…” Wang Yu said as he stuffed it into his pockets.
Ever since the medium grade recovery medicine allowed Wang Yu to earn the big bucks, he valued such recipes very much. Others might not have wanted it, but he already had thoughts of opening a bar of sorts to make money.
After revealing the loots, a system notification popped out: Twilight Temple Hell Mode completed…
There were no hidden rounds in the Twilight Temple, after the final BOSS, the level of completion was 100%.
When everyone was teleported out of the dungeon, they all received a large amount of experience points and an obsidian treasure chest.
Even though the Twilight Temple was a LVL25 dungeon, the experience given for the Hell Mode was equivalent to rewards at LVL 50. The experience points alone were enough to increase their levels by 1. Wang Yu, who was nearly reaching LVL 28, was now at LVL 28.6.
Once they were out of the dungeon, Wang Yu excitedly opened his treasure chest. The rewards were the same as the last time- 2 smelting stones.
This was an unexpected surprise as Wang Yu was missing 2 smelting stones before. Now, he didn’t need to head to the PVP arena to get them.
Now that they were back at the Twilight City, Wang Yu returned to his master’s quarters to turn in the quest.
“Teacher, I’ve followed your instructions and completed my investigation…” Wang Yu followed the system hint and handed the dungeon records over to the Hermit.
“Oh? So that’s how it is, no wonder… I have to discuss with that old man about the next step.”.
After turning the quest in, all Wang Yu got was this sentence, there was no experience, no gifts nor bronze tier items.
“Is there anything else?” the Hermit asked as he sipped on his wine.
Wang Yu thought for a moment before showing the Wine Fermentation recipe to the Hermit and said, “Teacher, I discovered this in the dungeon, I don’t know if you’ll have any use for it.”.
After 1 month of playing this game, Wang Yu long knew that if the NPC had higher happiness levels, the chances of getting benefits would increase as well.
The NPCs in ‘Rebirth’ all had different likings, apart from gold, the Hermit’s favourite was wine.
A bottle of wine could obtain his assistance, what great extent would he go to for such a recipe?
“This… Oh? Is this demon Lilith’s fermentation recipe?” the Hermit’s eyes glimmered as he grabbed the piece of paper from Wang Yu’s hand.
“Yeah! Do you like it?” Wang Yu nodded.
The Hermit smiled, “You’re a good kid indeed, I didn’t expect you to think about me in the dungeons… Not bad.”.
“I thought so too… so I grabbed it and wanted to pass it to you,” Wang Yu agreed as he looked earnestly at the Hermit as if he was expecting something.
“Not bad, not bad,” the Hermit went on, pretending not to see Wang Yu’s gaze.
“Teacher, do I get something in return?” Wang Yu asked directly, seeing that the Hermit was trying his best to avoid the issue.
“Alright, alright, what do you want you little brat?” the Hermit smiled and asked.
“Do I get anything I ask for?” Wang Yu asked in return.
“Have you gone down the wrong path?” the Hermit sighed as he took out a skill book and passed it to Wang Yu.
<Immortal Wine: A powerful technique passed down from the ancient ages. Increases many attributes of the user by using the power of drunkedness>
Once Wang Yu obtained the book, he immediately learned the skill. It wasn’t because of his excitement, but because he didn’t trust the Hermit.
The Hermit did not cheat him, the Wine Immortal skill was pretty decent.
<Wine Immortal>
[Drunken Beating of the Mountains]: Increases movement speed by 20%, physical attack and defence by 15% while user is in the drunken state.
[Blood Cleanse]: Dispels all poisons and debuffs on the user with the power of wine.
Even though both of these skills were amplifier skills, the effects were powerful.
“How is it? Pretty decent right? This is one of my favourite skills, if you weren’t smart, I wouldn’t impart it to you…” the Hermit hugged his wine bottle and said.
“It’s good it’s good” Wang Yu said with satisfaction.
His present for the Hermit did not go down in vain, the only thing that could increase movement speed, physical attack, physical defence and dispel poison were mixtures and antidotes respectively.
The two items were much more expensive than regular potions and their usages were much more specialised.
Of course, high end wine was not cheap either. But for the skill, any type of wine would do.
After learning the skill, Wang Yu was ready to find a place to practice, when news suddenly came in.
It was from Seven Blueberries.
“Brother Bull, you’re not here for the PVP arena today?”.
“Didn’t I already mention it? Practice and training is the right way to go… The PVP arena isn’t the way,” Wang Yu lectured.
Wang Yu was a little bumped as well, this girl usually did not take the initiative, it was always him that invited her to join the squad. Why did she suddenly come to him? Could it be that they didn’t have enough people?
“Got it…” Blueberry replied.
Wang Yu felt that he wasn’t being a gentleman by rejecting a girl like this, so he added, “If you need someone, I can join.”.
“We need someone,” Blueberry said directly.
“…” Wang Yu was a little speechless, he felt like slapping himself, why did he find more trouble for himself?
“Just wait for me, I’ll be there soon…” Wang Yu left a final message before heading to the PVP arena.
