Just call me Thor

"Congratulations to participant Thor for conquering the 28th floor with an SSSS-level rating, rewarding all humans in the Tower of Truth with the additional buff [Jeremy]!"

"Limited-time buff [Chicken Soup is Here]: Humans in the Tower of Truth automatically receive a bowl of chicken soup, fresh for 6 hours."

"Limited-time buff [Companion Attack]: Humans in the Tower of Truth gain one summon chance to summon [Nameless's Companion]."

"Limited-time buff [Fuck]: Humans in the Tower of Truth can deal 28% additional damage by cursing their enemies during battle, duration 6 hours!"

"Permanent buff [Jeremy]: Reduces the difficulty of obtaining Exploration Rate for humans in the Tower of Truth when exploring floors below the 30th."

Looking at the newly released announcement, people didn't immediately erupt in cheers and excitement. After all, Thor had already achieved SSSS-level conquest ratings over twenty times. Even boiling water would evaporate after being boiled so many times.

Looking at the four new buffs, everyone's first reaction was: Weird!

What strange buffs!

[Chicken Soup is Here] was still understandable, a free bowl of chicken soup.

Maybe something unexpected would happen after drinking it.

The [Companion Attack] buff was a bit confusing.

Who was Nameless?

Of course, this kind of summon buff to help with conquest had appeared before in the rewards for the 14th floor.

The first two buffs were still within the normal range.

But the third buff, [Fuck], what was that all about?

Fighting and making love at the same time, the ultimate enjoyment?

As for the last buff, it was actually named after a person. Although everyone was curious about who Jeremy was, reducing the difficulty of obtaining Exploration Rate below the 30th floor would only be a good thing for humanity, not a bad thing.

A thousand words could be summed up in one sentence:

"Thor, you're the fucking best!!!"

The crowd was once again ignited, and in all channels and chat windows, the only hot topic everyone was discussing was Thor!

After the heated discussion, someone took out a bowl of delicious chicken soup and drank it all in one gulp.

A flash of lightning, and the person who drank the chicken soup was resurrected on the spot.

"Holy fuck!"

The resurrected person exclaimed, "I got a permanent buff, Strength permanently increased by 2%!"

"That strong?!"

The people around him gathered, and they indeed saw a powerful buff added to his status bar!

This caused another wave of commotion.

A free buff, why not take it!

Just as everyone was about to drink the soup together, someone suddenly asked, "Dude, how does the chicken soup taste?"

The first brave soul who drank the chicken soup's face suddenly changed, as if he had recalled something unpleasant.

The chicken soup couldn't be described as delicious, it could only be said to taste like expired milk!

How bad did one's cooking skills have to be to make such awful chicken soup?

But the first brave soul who drank the chicken soup gave a bright smile.

"Delicious, absolutely delicious!"

He said loudly, "I suggest you all turn your taste settings to the highest to experience the deliciousness of the chicken soup, that way the buff will be stronger!"

As he spoke, he looked around and saw everyone eager to try the soup.

"I have something to do at home, my wife is about to give birth, I'm going offline first, see you tomorrow."

A flash of lightning, and the brave soul went offline.

The second person who drank the chicken soup died and was resurrected, also gaining a powerful buff.

"Ah! The taste of Mom!"

"So delicious!"

This person's eyes were filled with tears, moved to tears.

The first two brave souls had tasted the chicken soup, and the feedback was exceptionally good. Everyone picked up their bowls of chicken soup and drank it all in one gulp.

After countless flashes of lightning, the resurrected crowd was filled with rage.

"Holy fuck, this disgusting thing is the taste of Mom?! This is the taste of your mom's shit!"

"Whoever told me to turn up my taste settings, come out and die!"

"Why did you make me drink this chicken soup? Even though I'm a demon cult traitor, I don't deserve this kind of punishment!"

"Huh? City Defense Department? There's a walking one million bounty here."

"..."

As the power of the poisonous chicken soup took effect, the Core City of Truth was thrown into chaos.

However, when newcomers who hadn't tried the soup asked those who had, they all received the same answer:

"The taste of Mom, absolutely delicious!"

Then, these unsuspecting newcomers picked up their bowls of chicken soup and drank it all in one gulp!

...

In his private space.

Mike looked at the bowl of chicken soup in his hand, lost in thought.

As he stared at it, a prompt popped up above the chicken soup:

[Extremely disgusting chicken soup. Drinking it will cause soul trauma and grant a weak buff.]

The weak buff mentioned by the Eye of Truth was a 20% increase in detection skill range.

Theoretically, this buff was quite strong.

However, it was useless in front of the Eye of Truth.

"In that case, I might as well not drink this chicken soup!"

Mike summoned Vladimir. "This chicken soup is hard-earned and very precious, I'll reward you with it!"

Holding the chicken soup, Vladimir was deeply moved and didn't dare to move.

"Master, your generosity is like the vast sun, selflessly shining on every inch of land..."

After a string of flattery, Vladimir asked timidly, "This soup, I think Dracula should drink it first."

Mike nodded casually. "Whatever you want, anyway, this thing increases the range of detection skills by 200% after drinking it, it's not something valuable."

With that, Mike turned and left.

Vladimir looked at the chicken soup in his hand, his expression full of struggle.

Detection skill range increased by 200%?!

Many of the blood clan's combat skills were a combination of detection and damage, and this buff would perfectly enhance them.

Vladimir calculated in his mind, "Mike said 200%, he must have exaggerated the effect. I think it's at most 100%, no, 50%!"

If it could increase by 50%, how could Vladimir possibly give such a good thing to Dracula?!

"I'll take the risk!"

Vladimir gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, picked up the chicken soup, and downed it in one gulp!

The resurrected Vladimir's face was livid, gloomy beyond compare.

"Only 20%!"

In his agony, Vladimir made a mental note.

"The things Mike makes are specialties from hell!"

It was simply too disgusting!

...

After rewarding the chicken soup to Vladimir, Mike strolled near the Money Tree and didn't forget to instruct Dorian.

"No need to pay Vladimir's bonus this month, I've already paid him in advance."

"Understood, Lord Master."

With that, Mike hummed a tune and wandered around casually.

Master Fool appeared beside him, raising an eyebrow. "You seem to be in a good mood today?"

Mike nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, I found half a copper coin today."

Master Fool: ...

After calming down, Master Fool changed the subject.

"By the way, what reward did you get for the SSSS-level conquest rating on the 28th floor?"

Mike was truly in a good mood. This time, he didn't even charge a fee and directly told Master Fool.

"I was rewarded with a cock!"

As he spoke, Mike placed a brightly cock with a red comb on the ground.

The cock took a few steps forward and raised its head. It felt like its life had reached a crucial moment, it should do something!

Push!

It's out!

An oval-shaped object rolled on the ground.

The cock crowed proudly, "Cock-a-doodle-doo!"

Looking at the golden egg on the ground, Mike beamed, pointing at the cock and saying, "I was rewarded with an egg-laying cock!"

A cock that laid golden eggs!
