Is the closed beta test of King of Loque over? The official release is here!

He looked at Mo Fan with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

"Mo Fan, you not only won the game, but more importantly, you know how to share."

He paused, his voice becoming even gentler.

"This is very rare."

Mo Fan lowered his head slightly and said respectfully:

"Thank you for the compliment, Elder."

The Grand Elder nodded, then turned around and looked at Niu Kuang and Song Chen.

"You two did a good job too."

His voice became serious.

"Although you lost, you didn't act impulsively during the process, but instead made the decision that was most beneficial to the team."

He paused.

"This is commendable."

Niu Kuang scratched the back of his head, a rare hint of embarrassment appearing on his rugged face.

Song Chen remained expressionless, but his tense shoulders relaxed slightly.

The elder looked around at everyone, his voice becoming louder.

"The points you earn will be used in the Sacred Tree Ceremony during the Easter Egg Festival."

He raised his wooden cane and tapped it lightly on the ground.

"The more points you have, the richer the rewards you can obtain in the sacrifice."

His gaze swept over everyone present.

"So, cherish the points you have."

As soon as he finished speaking, cheers erupted in the market.

The indigenous people applauded and cheered for the performance of the three teams.

Murong Jiao raised her hands high, her smile as bright as the sun.

"Haha, we're number one! Number one!"

She turned around and winked at Mo Fan.

"Mo Fan, thanks to you this time!"

Mo Fan shook his head.

"It's the result of everyone's joint efforts."

Murong Sha walked to Mo Fan's side, her blue eyes sparkling with gentle light.

"Mo Fan, thank you."

Her voice was soft, yet it carried a genuine emotion.

Mo Fan looked at her and smiled slightly.

"You're welcome."

Fang Xu also came over, his face full of excitement.

"Brother Mo Fan, you're amazing! That barbecue seasoning and sauce were a stroke of genius!"

Mo Fan patted Fang Xu on the shoulder.

"You baked it very well too."

The four men exchanged smiles, their faces beaming with the joy of victory.

Chapter 232 Easter Egg Festival (Both chapters are nearly 3,000 words each)

The cheers gradually subsided.

The elder did not rush to leave, but instead leaned on his wooden cane and paced slowly beside the ashes of the campfire.

“Next,” he said softly, but his voice drew everyone’s attention back, “is the most important part of the Easter Egg Festival—making Easter eggs.”

Easter egg.

Everyone's hearts moved.

Having been in Pandonog for so many days, the words "Easter Egg Festival" have been on my lips the whole time, but I haven't actually experienced anything related to "Easter eggs." The previous miner competitions and barbecue contests were ultimately just for accumulating points.

Now, it seems we're finally getting to the main point.

Everyone held their breath in anticipation.

I originally thought that, given the ancient and mysterious style of this tribe, making Easter eggs would involve some complicated ritual, requiring some special ability or tedious process.

But unexpectedly—

"Bring it up," the elder waved to the clansmen behind him.

As soon as he finished speaking, a dozen strong and robust natives emerged from the depths of the market, carrying large and small wooden boxes, bamboo baskets, and stone plates, and lined up in the center of the market.

The wooden box was opened, the lid of the bamboo basket was lifted, and the cloth curtain on the stone slab was removed.

Colorful items came into view.

There were pigments of all colors, stored in small earthenware bowls, ranging from deep indigo to bright vermilion, from soft pale yellow to intense emerald green, covering almost every imaginable color.

There were some regularly shaped molding materials, which were divided into three piles according to their different materials.

There are also some scattered decorations, varying in size and shape, which look quite interesting.

These are... the materials used to make Easter eggs?

It was much simpler than I expected.

The elder walked up to the materials, turned around, and looked at the three teams.

“These are all the materials needed to make the Easter eggs.” His voice was calm and clear. “You can use the points you earn in the competition to exchange for these materials, and then—make your own Easter eggs.”

Song Chen took a step forward, his brows furrowed slightly.

"Elder," his voice was neither humble nor arrogant, "what is the use of those Easter eggs that have been made?"

The Grand Elder was not surprised that he would ask a question. His cloudy eyes looked at Song Chen, and his tone was unhurried.

"The created Easter eggs will be placed on the tribe's totem wishing wall."

He paused, then gently tapped the ground with the hand holding his wooden cane.

"Tomorrow—the Easter Egg Festival will officially begin with the wishing ceremony at the Sacred Tree. At that time, the Easter eggs you made will transform into energy and flow into the Sacred Tree."

His gaze swept over everyone present, and his voice became solemn.

"After that, the divine tree will give you energy in return. You can make a wish. The divine tree will grant you what you wish for as a reward."

Make a wish?

award?

The moment those two words were uttered, the eyes of all the players present lit up.

Murong Jiao's almond-shaped eyes widened instantly, gleaming with a light that seemed to say "darling." Fang Xu subconsciously swallowed. A hint of eagerness also ignited in Niu Kuang's bull-like eyes.

Song Chen, however, did not rush to express his excitement. He continued to press for answers.

"So how should these Easter eggs be made? And what does it have to do with points?" He paused, his wording becoming more precise. "Or rather—what is the relationship between points and making a wish later?"

The Grand Elder nodded slightly, seemingly satisfied with Song Chen's question.

“Making an Easter egg is very simple. Just assemble, paint, and decorate with these materials to make a complete Easter egg.” He pointed to the materials with his withered finger. “As for points—that’s the amount of materials you can exchange for.”

“Generally speaking,” the elder said, his tone becoming more serious, “the more points you use to create an Easter egg, the bigger your wish will be.”

Song Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.

"In other words... the wish made is not arbitrary."

“That’s right.” The Grand Elder nodded. “When you make your wishes, the maximum energy limit of your wishes will be determined based on the total points consumed in creating the Easter eggs.”

He looked at everyone and added, "Anyway, you will be able to sense it yourselves in time. At that time, you will naturally understand that you have many great wishes."

Everyone nodded, indicating that they understood.

Simply put, the more points you have, the more materials you have, the bigger and more exquisite the Easter egg will be, and the stronger the wish you can make in the end.

The logic is not complicated.

“Then.” The elder raised his wooden staff and tapped it lightly in the air.

"Redeem your items now and start making your Easter eggs."

As soon as the words were spoken, the members of the three teams rushed towards the wooden boxes and bamboo baskets where the materials were placed.

Everyone examined the materials in front of them one by one.

Upon closer inspection, these things are much clearer than when viewed from a distance—they can be broadly categorized into three main types.

The first category is shaped objects.

This refers to the main material that makes up the "shell" of the Easter egg.

Upon closer inspection, the sculptures are divided into three types based on their materials.

One type is made of bone. It is grayish-white, thin yet hard, with a very smooth surface, and is in the shape of curved pieces. The curvature of each piece is different, but if you pick up a few pieces and compare them, you will find that they are like puzzle pieces, able to interlock and be pieced together to eventually form a hollow egg shape.

One type is made of wood. It has a warm yellow color, fine texture, and also has an arc-shaped sheet structure, but is slightly thicker than bone-based ones, and has a warm and smooth feel.

There is also a stone type. It is dark gray, heavy, and has a natural granular texture on the surface. It is heavier than the previous two, but the assembled eggshell is noticeably thicker and more substantial.

The three materials each have their own texture and characteristics.

Next to the sculpted pieces was a soft, adhesive substance. It was yellowish-brown in color and felt somewhat like modeling clay when squeezed—clearly used to hold the sculpted pieces together, sealing the gaps in the assembled eggshell and making it a complete whole.

The second category is coatings.

Various pigments were placed in small ceramic bowls, arranged neatly one by one. The colors were diverse, with three different shades of red alone.
