Maimang Xiexie and Zhangyu Tong slowly turned their heads to look at the guests, performing a "Big Boss's Glare"—are you looking for trouble?
At that moment, Erhao Tuzi had also turned to face them.
His rabbit mouth, missing a front tooth, moved as if chewing on a crisp carrot, and he coldly said, "Dare to lay a hand on me?!"
Yinhao Tuzi was clearly not a good sort either; he slammed the table and stood up, saying, "Dare to lay a hand on my sister... Hahaha, sorry... dare to lay a hand on my sister?!"
Yu Xunge: "..." No wonder the deity noticed so quickly and was so agitated.
B8017913: "Totally understandable, right?"
Yu Xunge already knew what she had in her hand. While her teammates were focused on Erhao Tuzi, she quickly glanced down.
【■■·Rabbit Tooth】 (a gift from the deity): Using it will freeze time in your current world for 30 minutes. If you actively attack or kill any living being, the time freeze effect will immediately end. (Usage count: 1)
The moment Yu Xunge finished reading the item description, she crushed the Rabbit Tooth without hesitation and chose to use it.
There was no better time to use it than now!
Whether it was the awkward situation she was in or the peculiar circumstances of this divine game.
Considering the punishment of the river of time, she wouldn't use her own time ability, but this one-time item was perfectly fine.
The moment the Rabbit Tooth was crushed, her teammates and the rabbits in the restaurant froze, the entire world pressed on pause.
Yu Xunge immediately sprang into action, running over to hoist both rabbits and dashed out of the restaurant.
B8017913: "What are you planning to do?"
Yu Xunge: "Causing trouble, causing trouble, causing trouble!"
B8017913: "The first deity doesn't seem to have provoked you, right?"
Yu Xunge: "Just a little something on the side!"
Leaving them in the restaurant was a disaster; better to send them off together.
She had no thoughts of respecting the deities; she treated these event packages just as Maimang Xiexie treated them.
She had to act as if she didn't know these event packages were from the deities.
With the rabbits slung over her shoulders, Yu Xunge flew toward Restaurant No. 1, relying on her orange-red wings, reaching her destination in under a minute.
She first paused outside Restaurant No. 1 to glance at the rules.
Though time was frozen, just to be safe, she wanted to ensure that her violations inside the restaurant wouldn't exceed three.
After memorizing the rules and confirming she could leave safely after her business was done, Yu Xunge entered the restaurant.
Inside Restaurant No. 1, there were three players ranked in the top fifty of the ladder, along with two rabbit guests. She scanned the room and was surprised to find that Zichuan Taoyou was absent, but to her astonishment, Donghai Shaleng was indeed in Restaurant No. 1!
What a coincidence!
Yu Xunge flew up, placing Erhao Tuzi on Donghai Shaleng's neck, lifting Donghai Shaleng's long hair that reached his ankles, wrapping it around Erhao Tuzi multiple times and tying it in a tight knot.
Thinking about how much Donghai Shaleng cared for his hair, she plucked a handful of it and stuffed it into Erhao Tuzi's hands.
Then, Yu Xunge began to clean out Restaurant No. 1.
Although her skill to close the restaurant was restricted, the backpack unlocked by the World Tomb Key could still be used. Yu Xunge packed all the high-end ingredients from Restaurant No. 1 into her backpack.
During this time, she continuously used 【I Want to Progress So Badly】 on the players and rabbits in Restaurant No. 1, and with the support of Songui, Yu Xunge enjoyed an unprecedented thrill.
Here were the strongest players and the strongest rabbits.
Yu Xunge stayed in Restaurant No. 1 for nearly ten minutes. It wasn't that she didn't want to steal more; it was just that after her first successful theft, the long string of failures made her suspect that perhaps each rabbit could only be stolen from once.
But those who dared to come to Restaurant No. 1 were no ordinary rabbits, and Yu Xunge's haul was still quite good.
A rabbit ear the size of a palm, and a golden twig with several branches and tender leaves.
【■■■·Rabbit Ear】 (a gift from the deity): Can replicate any item (Usage count: 1)
The four players in Restaurant No. 1 hadn't produced anything, likely due to some anti-theft measures.
Yu Xunge didn't feel disheartened; she wasn't in a hurry to use the Rabbit Ear but instead secured her loot and hurried to Restaurant No. 2.
Following the same method, she packed high-end ingredients from the restaurant while making progress.
B8017913: "Why are you still carrying Erhao Tuzi?"
Yu Xunge: "Oh, he’s probably my first fan. I’m just catering to my fans here."
B8017913 fell silent, feeling that Yu Xunge had lost her mind again.
Yu Xunge: "You can't deny it! He came to find me, which means he likes watching me cause trouble. Bringing him along to cause trouble—what else could it be but catering to my fans?"
B8017913: "The likelihood of you catering to fans is lower than the chance of Li Zhu completely unfollowing Songui."
Yu Xunge: "…………"
Damn it, I can't argue with that!!
Yu Xunge: "…Fine, I just haven't managed to steal anything from him, and I'm not willing to let it go."
B8017913: "Ha, the mechanical race doesn't make mistakes."
Yu Xunge pretended not to hear that; she was busy making progress.
Restaurant No. 2 had only one rabbit guest, but it took Yu Xunge eight minutes to succeed in stealing.
She didn't think her theft rate was the problem; she was pondering whether the players or deities had some anti-theft measures that reduced a thief's success rate.
But what she managed to steal this time was truly great! Almost the very thing she wanted most!
【■·A Rabbit Hair】 (a gift from the deity): Using it can sever all causal ties between you and a target. No matter what happened before, from this moment on, you owe each other nothing. (Usage count: 1)
Yu Xunge practically sprinted back to Restaurant No. 1, standing in front of Donghai Shaleng.
Yu Xunge: "I didn't misunderstand, right? If causal ties still exist, Donghai Shaleng can find a way to retrieve the Midnight Exile I stole, but if I sever them, he can never get it back, right?"
B8017913: "Yes."
Yu Xunge: "If I sever them, the skills I've already stolen won't disappear, since it says 'no matter what happened before.'"
B8017913: "Exactly."
Yu Xunge: "…If I misunderstood, the furious moon I possess will definitely go back in time to remind me after the game ends..."
She no longer needed B8017913 to respond. Taking a deep breath, Yu Xunge used the Rabbit Hair on Donghai Shaleng.
【Chapter 524: Divine Game: Nonsense Restaurant 39】
Naturally, the two curses on Donghai Shaleng disappeared.
Yu Xunge took one last look at Donghai Shaleng, thinking that the story was far from over.
As long as Donghai Shaleng was alive, this grudge would never end—the grudge of having his divine gift stripped away...
Putting herself in his shoes, if someone stole her divine gift, she would want to devour their flesh and drink their blood. Even if she managed to get it back, it wouldn't quench her hatred. Moreover, she had completely cut off Donghai Shaleng's hope of reclaiming the 【Midnight Exile】.
Yu Xunge hoisted Erhao Tuzi again and set off for Restaurant No. 3, but she didn't go inside.
The rules of this restaurant were too complicated; once inside, she had to complete four tasks to leave, each of which couldn't be bypassed without dealing with the restaurant staff.
With less than ten minutes left of the time freeze, Yu Xunge decided to head straight to Restaurant No. 4.
Pack it up!
Make progress!
Do a little cleaning on the side to earn some nonsense points.
B8017913: "You don't seem to be afraid of offending deities and demons at all."
Yu Xunge: "I'm just trying to please their rivals."
B8017913: "You always manage to say things that leave me at a loss for words."
Yu Xunge: "Hmph, then stop bothering me while I make my fortune!"
A few seconds later, Yu Xunge looked at the item in her hand but couldn't manage a smile.
【■■■■·A Rabbit Hair】 (a gift from the deity): Using it can randomly steal a skill icon from the target, with a 100% success rate.
Was this item good? It was fantastic.
But it also meant that other players could potentially get it.
What she was doing to other players could very well boomerang back at her...
Yu Xunge didn't plan to keep this Rabbit Hair for the New Year; she needed to convert it into resources as soon as possible.
However, it wasn't necessary to use it on deities and demons; they certainly didn't lack skill icons, and she might end up stealing something useless.
The skill icons that Erhao Tuzi casually gave her, along with the one he used to pay for the meal, were of low quality, as if they were just pocket money.
This Rabbit Hair was best used on players; every player carefully selected their skills, and even if they weren't the strongest, they were definitely the most practical!
At this point, there were less than five minutes left before the time freeze ended.
Yu Xunge first used 【Rabbit Ear】 to replicate 【■■■■·A Rabbit Hair】, then flew to the entrance of Restaurant No. 2—Zichuan Taoyou was there.
If she was going to steal, she might as well steal the best!
Yu Xunge: "Does Zichuan Taoyou have a time ability to go back?"
If he did, she probably wouldn't be able to steal anything good.
B8017913: "I can't say."
Yu Xunge understood; since she couldn't steal the best... she decided not to linger at the crime scene.
She headed to Restaurant No. 5.
B8017913: "Why aren't you going to Restaurant No. 1?"
