Chapter 284: Drinking Tea (2)

Long tables, fallen leaves, cups of tea; elites, players, existencea rather poetic scene indeed.UppTodated from nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m

The players stayed put. They werent sure what this story quest was about. What if the cup of tea was poisoned? They turned their gazes at the NPCs, who were all carefully lifting their teacups in admiration as if it was some sort of treasure. Some of them took a light sip, and elation immediately washed over their faces.

Is that some sort of drug? The players wondered.

Itd be nice if it was wine. Masks voice was crystal clear throughout the silent patio.

Everyone turned to look at Mask, only to realise he had already downed the cup of tea. Sir Duen chortled. He looked at Mask as if he was an interesting toy and said, This brothers words are likeable. However, ordinary wine doesnt have the same effects as my tea, you know?

The tea leaves are made from a divine trees leaves. A divine tree takes a century to grow and stays leafless for three years before it grows a full crown in another three years. The verdant leaves then wilt and fall, which takes another three years. This tea is made from said fallen leaves, meaning it is only available every nine years. Ive named this tea the Divine Tea.

Drako Yau nodded in agreement. The moment he drank the tea, he received a system notification that read, Drinking the Divine Tea has granted you 10 attribute points and increased your comprehension capability.

In other words, drinking the tea gave the players two levels for free, not to mention the mysterious comprehension capability enhancement. Drako Yau had a vague feeling that the latter was way more important than the ten points.

After hearing Sir Duens explanation of the Divine Tea, the players all drank their cup of tea and were similarly elated. Most were overjoyed by the free attribute points, with only a handful of them deep in thought about the second effect.

Suddenly, a person stood up, an NPC to be exact.

Sir Duen, tea times over. Is it time for the sword?

The elder laughed as he scolded, Kid, why the rush?

The young NPC in his twenties replied obstinately, Look at all those trash! I cant wait to teach them a lesson!

Sir Duen smiled, clearly not taking it to heart. Have a seat. Youll go first when we start later.

Hades eyes flared up with battle intent as his sword struck twice almost simultaneouslyDual Slash! Swords clashed against one another with a screeching clang.

Tai On shouted the moment their blades locked, Good!

Almost immediately, Tai Ons sword broke off into three glowing swords as they blocked Hades attack in a triangular formation. Hades spun his sword and repositioned it for a thrust, connecting defence into offence.

Every assassin was dumbstruck by Hades move. It was the Level 23 Assassin skill, Poisoned Riposte!

Poisoned Riposte: Parry the enemys attack and immediately counter-attack. If the weapon is poisoned, the poison will be twice as potent.

It was the strongest poisoned attack assassins had. The doubled poison damage alone made it one of the best skills in an assassins arsenal. However, with how argent Hades sword was, it clearly wasnt poisoned. His style of fighting aboveboard with viciousnesswas he really an assassin? Wasnt that how weaponmasters fought?

Every unfortunate leaf that came between their battle was immediately rent into dust and swept away into oblivion by the breeze.

Tai On was surprised that Hades chose to fight speed with speed, but that only made things more thrilling for him.

Good fella! Hes got quite the guts to fight me with speed!

Tai On was just as quick as he slanted his sword to block Hades thrust and drew a step back. Hades saw his retreat and suddenly disappeared along with his thrusting sword.

Spectacular! the spectating players couldnt help cheering.

Hades forcefully ended Poisoned Riposte and cast Shadowstrike!
