Chapter 352: Special Food
“It’s like this. Since you have spent more than 300 gold coins in the Cloud Medicine Pavilion, we will give you a Copper membership token. In the future, you can enjoy a 10% discount when you spend in the Cloud Medicine Pavilion. Please use your source energy transfer token to bind your membership.”
After the female receptionist handed over a Copper membership token, he kept it in his space bag.
After that, Lugh left the medicine shop that belonged to the Cloud Medicine Pavilion.
“I’ve just entered a medicine shop in the Cloud Medicine Pavilion, but I’ve already spent nearly half of my own funds. I have to be careful with the remaining money.”
After Lugh settled the medicine that was used to treat Gary, he was also preparing to buy another high-grade medicinal herb for Big Mouth.
Since he still needed to buy a high-grade medicinal herb, why didn’t he buy it at that place just now? That was because this medicinal herb was not a simple medicine, but a medicine that contained a strong source energy.
The Cloud Medicine Pavilion’s upper-level area was very large. It was a very long commercial street. After walking for nearly fifteen minutes, Lugh finally found a store that might sell that medicine.
The store’s name was ‘Hundred Source Room’. The name was simple and clear. It was a store that specialized in selling all kinds of medicine that contained source energy.
Lugh walked into the hundred source room. It was different from before. There were already some customers in the shop who were purchasing medicine.
Almost all of them had source beasts of their own attributes. In order to increase the strength of the source beasts, they came to buy some high-grade medicinal herbs with the corresponding attributes.
These people were all from rich families. The lowest quality source beasts around them were all soldier-grade source beasts. Moreover, their levels weren’t low. After all, they were people who could come to the Cloud Medicine Pavilion’s upper level area. After taking a glance at these powerful source beasts, a new idea came to Lugh’s mind.
“Hello, how can I help you?” A young male receptionist in the shop saw Lugh entering the shop and immediately went forward to greet him.
“Do you sell poison dissolving ginseng here?” Lugh asked.
“Yes, what year’s poison dissolving ginseng do you want?” the male receptionist asked with a smile.
“A hundred-year-old or so would be fine. Give me one.”
Poison dissolving ginseng was classified according to the length of the year. Generally, the poison dissolving ginseng sold was fifty-year-old, a hundred-year-old, a hundred-year-old, the highest was two hundred-year-old, the lowest quality was eighth-grade, and a hundred-year-old poison dissolving ginseng was the lowest grade, it was also in the category of eighth-grade medicine.
“Sir, this is your hundred-year poison dissolving ginseng. Please check it.” The male receptionist quickly took out a brocade box, opened it, and took out a palm-sized purple poison dissolving ginseng with a special isolation glove, showing it to Lugh.
Lugh had followed his father to read the pharmacology of panaceas for many years. He immediately determined that this poison-dissolving ginseng was indeed of a hundred-year quality. He then nodded to the other party to confirm that there was no mistake. After that, he took out the Copper-rank member certificate that could give a 10% discount.
“The original price of the hundred-year-old poison dissolving ginseng is 90 gold. After the 10% discount, it will be 81 gold. Please keep this poison dissolving ginseng well, Sir.” After the receptionist skillfully confirmed Lugh’s membership status, he passed the packaged poison dissolving ginseng to Lugh.
After Lugh handed over the money, he kept the hundred-year-old poison dissolving ginseng back into his spatial brocade pouch. Meanwhile, his wallet shrunk once again. The money that the championship had given him had spent more than half of the money he had spent on these medicines for treatment. Now, Lugh only had nineteen gold left on him. He decided to invest the rest of the money into Big Mouth’s food.
After buying the poison dissolving ginseng, Lugh directly left the Cloud Medicine Pavilion. He turned around and walked towards the public commercial street where the various merchants gathered. He was prepared to dispose of some source beast ingredients on his body and also buy some things at the same time.
Most of the shops on the main street were mainly for the trading of source beast ingredients. Lugh didn’t go out of his way to specifically pick one, choosing a shop with a decent number of customers and walking in, after all, it had been less than two hours since the sky turned dark.
The shop that Lugh entered was a shop that specialized in selling source beast food. It was divided into several areas according to the source beast’s attributes and types.
Beast Masters paid great attention to the feeding of source beast food, because high-quality food that was suitable for their source beast not only ensured that the source beast’s taste would make it happy, but it could also subtly nurture the source beast’s physique and attributes.
For example, if your source beast had a beast attribute, and you kept feeding it high-quality food with a beast attribute, it would be able to purify the beast attribute in its body. As time passed, your source beast would absorb and digest the energy in the food, level up, or even race quality.
Big Mouth’s attribute is insect and dragon. Dragon-type source beasts are too rare, which is why only some big cities sell dragon-type food and materials. Therefore, this shop only sells insect-type source beasts’ food.
However, Lugh was not in a hurry to buy dragon-type source beasts’ food, because Lugh wanted to quickly increase Big Mouth’s strength within a month. He chose to increase Big Mouth’s insect attribute first, which was more cost-effective and smart than increasing dragon attribute first.
Other than the large number and variety of insect-type source beasts, their strong vitality and extremely short growth period were the characteristics of this type of source beasts. This meant that the level of insect-type source beasts increased very quickly and could quickly increase their combat strength.
However, dragon-type source beasts were different, even though they had many strong points. For example, they had many overbearing dragon race source skills, strong physique and body resistance, long lifespan, extremely high growth limit, and other advantages.
All of these could not hide the slow growth speed of the dragon-type origin beast, and it was extremely expensive.
Thus, Lugh decided to increase the bug attribute of Big Mouth first, and the dragon attribute in the future, when the financial situation allowed, he would make a decision.
Lugh found the area where the bug attribute was classified, and directly went forward to ask the middle-aged man in charge of the area.
“Hello, I’m here to buy the food of the insect-type origin beasts.” There were many customers who bought the food of the insect-type origin beast, most of them were like Lugh in the past, the commoner class. Lugh, who was in a hurry, squeezed into the crowd and spoke to the middle-aged man who was in charge of the area.
“En. Do you want to directly purchase source crystals or special food?” The middle-aged man sat on the chair and yawned as he spoke. Compared to the service attitude of the Cloud Medicine Pavilion’s upper level area, it was like the difference between heaven and earth. However, it was understandable. After all, this kind of customer flow was indeed very torturous.
Not only could source crystals be used as food, but they could also be used as energy for source energy technology. They could also be used as medicine. Their uses could be said to be very broad.
“I want to buy high-quality special food,” said Lugh.
“High-quality special food is very expensive. Can you afford it, little brother?” The middle-aged uncle felt much better after hearing that someone wanted to buy high-quality special food. However, when he saw that the buyer was a young man dressed in plain clothes, he doubted whether he could afford the price of high-quality special food.
“Don’t worry. I have money. Do you recommend special food?” Lugh interrupted the other party’s doubt.
The middle-aged man scratched the stubble on his chin and still looked at Lugh suspiciously. He asked, “Intake type? Import type? Or other special type of food?”
“I want the ingestion type of special food,” Lugh said.
“Alright, I recommend you to buy this ‘worm body meatball’. This is the larva of the Giant Horned Immortal. In addition to the high nutritional meat quality of the Giant Horned Immortal larva, there are also all kinds of medicinal herbs that are beneficial to the growth of the insect-type source beasts and meatballs made from source crystals. Now, the price is discounted. A bag will only charge you one silver.”
The middle-aged man began to fiddle with the cabinet behind him where the food samples were stored. He took out a bag of packaged meatballs that were slightly stained with dust. There was only one meatball in each bag. The meatball was about the size of an adult’s head.
Lugh frowned and looked at the middle-aged man. He said with some dissatisfaction, “Do you have any higher quality special food?”
The middle-aged man looked at Lugh with some surprise. In his mind, the food at this price was already enough to send this young man away. He did not expect that the other party would actually look down on the ‘worm body meatball’ in his hand.
The Giant Horned Immortal was a medium-sized commoner-level source beast. Because its meat was rich and juicy, it was listed as an edible ingredient. Other than feeding it to source beasts, it could also be served as common pub food and was frequently served on the tables of guests, the meatball introduced by the middle-aged man was obviously not a high-class product.
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and asked a handyman to fetch a jar from the back room. The material of the jar was very hard, and there was a faint stench coming from it, causing the surrounding customers to cover their noses and take two steps back. Even Lugh frowned at the smell.
