Chapter 43 - The Queen's New Outfit

The path was deep and quiet. The thick fog only allowed Elena to see three meters ahead and the tall trees beside the road. Her legs in high heels were a bit numb. She felt as if she had been walking for an hour or perhaps a whole day. Her mind was in a mess in the fog, unwilling to think, and she didn't feel tired. Fortunately, the cautious Elena suddenly became a little more alert and finally realized that if she just walked into the unknown and mysterious jungle like this, it would be a miracle if she could survive. After all, in the strange world, the survival rate of ordinary people was almost zero.

"System, where's my mysterious gift package?" Elena asked hopefully.

[Ding-dong! The host's request to extract the mysterious gift package has been responded to! Drawing a prize based on the current scene...]

[Congratulations, host! You have drawn - The Queen's Adventure Set!]

[Adventure Set One: The Queen's Pink Crystal Flower Crown.]

[Adventure Set Two: The Queen's Flower Tower Skirt.]

[Adventure Set Three: The Queen's Necrotic Flower Staff.]

As the system's voice fell, Elena found that she had suddenly put on a delicate and small pink transparent crystal flower crown; she had changed into a gorgeous tight skirt with a large flower tower hemline covered with shiny pink gems; and a delicate crystal staff with pink crystal flower buds had appeared in her hand.

Elena: ✧⁺⸜(●˙▾˙●)⸝⁺✧

"The Queen's Adventure Set" was truly beautiful, full of presence, pure yet elegant. In short, it was both innocent and seductive! If she hadn't been informed in advance that this was the "Adventure Set," Elena would have thought this set of equipment was for dazzling the eyes of those men at a banquet.

However, this crystal flower crown was so shiny. Wouldn't it be too eye-catching? The skirt wrapped her thighs tightly. Wouldn't it be inconvenient to run away? And this staff... Was it a utensil for serving strange creatures? This Adventure Set clearly dressed her up as a "food" that was more delicious and easier to eat!

[Exploration is one of the important hobbies of the Queen. The Queen's Adventure Set is dedicated to creating a pleasant adventure journey for the Queen, helping her remain elegant and noble even when tired during the exploration.]

[The Queen's Pink Crystal Flower Crown: Made from the material of the Great Wizard's prophecy crystal ball, it can predict behavioral risks for the Queen and effectively help her avoid Class 1 risks during exploration. Stay calm in danger, the Queen's elegance is everywhere!]

[The Queen's Flower Tower Skirt: Made from the hair of succubi and the armpit hair of flower demons, wearing it increases charm by 10 and comes with the skill - The Allure of Flower Fragrance (Confuse a life for one minute, cooldown five minutes). Whether you are male or female, you will surely fall at the Queen's feet!]

[The Queen's Necrotic Flower Staff: Made from the lively and cute necrotic flowers in the graveyard of ghouls, also known as - Big Mouth Flower. Just insert the staff into the soil and shout "Open your mouth," and it will immediately grow into a giant big mouth flower and swallow you in one bite.]

[The tongue of the Big Mouth Flower is soft and warm, allowing you to sleep until dawn!]

[The petals of the Big Mouth Flower are fragrant and sturdy, making your "home" warm and safe!]

[A mobile bedroom for the Queen's exploration, you deserve it! Note: Please clean the saliva of the Big Mouth Flower before moving in. That saliva is enough to corrode ghouls.]

[Note: All sets must be worn to activate the set skill.]

Elena listened to the system's prompts in her mind and felt that it seemed not bad. Just like a pillow when you're sleepy, with this "Queen's Adventure Set," Elena finally felt a bit more confident. She turned around to look at Nini, wanting to express her joy to her, but suddenly discovered... Nini was gone? ! The entire misty and deep jungle path was occupied by Elena alone. Did Nini get lost? But there was only one path here... Suddenly, Elena had a strange illusion as if she had been the only one walking on this path from the very beginning. An inexplicable sense of eeriness once again crept over her entire body.

She swallowed hard and turned back, only to suddenly find that the fog ahead had dissipated, revealing a lush and beautiful jungle scene before her eyes. The towering trees were lush and green. The warm sunlight and the dappled light on the ground were refreshing. A clear stream meandered through the grass, crystal clear. Several uniquely shaped small houses were faintly visible in the forest, like a scene from a fairy tale.

"Is this... the Lost Jungle?" Elena stared in astonishment at everything before her. She had not expected that instead of the gloom and danger she had anticipated, it had a captivating charm that made her reluctant to leave.

[Ding Dong! Congratulations, Host, you have arrived at a new map - Lost Jungle! Map difficulty: Catastrophe level.]

[System Task: 1. Survive in the Lost Jungle for one month successfully. Reward: A complete set of Queen's home furnishings! (You are the first to make the Lost Jungle your home, Queen.)

2. Escape from the Lost Jungle. Reward: 100 bottles of blue upgrade potion! (As the first person to ever escape the Lost Jungle, the level of 100 bottles of blue upgrade potion is far below your hidden level.)

3. Destroy the Lost Jungle. Reward: One copy of the Gospel! (You know, for an impossible task, no matter what bizarre reward is offered, it's harmless. Don't ask me if this reward really exists; you won't get it anyway.)]

Elena was suddenly covered in cold sweat and trembling all over. The reward for escaping the vampire castle, a task of such a high level of difficulty, was only a queen's outfit. But the three tasks just issued by the system, even the simplest survival task, had the reward of a queen's outfit as well. No wonder they were disaster-level tasks.

Why was her luck so good!

o(╥﹏╥)o

"Judging from your expression, you seem to like it here, little sunflower," a teasing voice suddenly came from beside her. Elena turned her head and her hair stood on end immediately!

[Life form in the Lost Jungle]

It was a terrifying giant snake, completely black and slimy, with nine heads! Each of its heads was as big as a millstone, and its stinking, coiling body lay on the grass, almost as tall as an elephant. Nine such thick...

things!

It definitely felt like it would be fatal!

[Your sanity -5]

"Turn into a frog!!" Elena was terrified and immediately used her trump card! "Frog? Where?" ! "Yes, I like eating frogs. But I hate toads because the pustules on its body make me feel sick." The fourth head of the Hydra poked out and looked around carefully. Elena's eyes widened. Her frog magic had failed? She knew that it was a magic that even the Lord of Fear couldn't resist.

"Oh! There are no frogs at all. I think you must have been mistaken. But to be honest, there haven't been any new friends in the jungle for a long time. I can feel that many new lives have come to the jungle today. That's great. The jungle is getting more and more lively." The Hydra continued to raise its fourth head, smiling, kind and cheerful. However, its other eight heads were all closed, as if they were sleeping.

Elena's body stiffened. She didn't feel the slightest bit relaxed because of the Hydra's friendly tone. It was just because this jungle was too strange! This Hydra that could ignore her frog magic was too strange! Was its snake skin naturally resistant to magic? Or was it stronger than the Lord of Fear and ranked above the root?

"All the lives in the jungle, I have an important announcement to make." Just then, a huge voice suddenly rang out from the depths of the jungle, causing all the leaves in the jungle to rustle. Elena looked in the direction of the sound and saw a huge tree in the center of the jungle, with huge eyes and a mouth appearing on its trunk.

The mouth of the giant tree slowly opened:

"A new tree spirit has been born. Its name is - Lord of Fear!"
