Jason walked briskly to the fountain pool and scooped up the monster that had shrunk to the size of a palm.

Compared to the previous gigantic, the monster at this moment has become extremely small, and the overall appearance looks like a squid, with a slightly hard gray matter shell, and ten wrist feet without suckers.

If it weren't for the previous scene, Jason would definitely treat it as an ordinary squid.

But at the moment?

Nature is incredibly delicious food.

The rich fragrance kept burrowing into Jason's nose, and he couldn't wait to take the food, then pick up the 'Laugher' and 'Trickster', and walked towards the butler.

"Where's the kitchen?"

Jason asked.

"In, there."

The butler trembled and pointed to a corner of the building.

Resisting the urge to rush straight into the kitchen, Jason said to Detective Hall:

"Tell Bundy about everything here!"

With that, Jason hurried to the kitchen.

He was confident that Hall would take care of everything.

Is there still a danger inside the building?

Jason believes not.

If there were still similar monsters in ambush, they should have rushed out just now and recovered their decline.

However, due vigilance, Jason still has.

Even if hunger is like scratching, vigilance should be like instinct.

After making sure everything was safe, Jason walked straight to the stove.

Different from the simple equipment in the single dormitory, in this kitchen, which is larger than his room, all the kitchen utensils are readily available, especially in terms of spices, pepper, cardamom, turmeric, cinnamon, bay leaves, perilla, mint, etc., and there is no shortage of fruits, vegetables, and poultry in the basket on the side.

What pleases Jason the most is that the fire on the stove is not extinguished.

Throwing the firewood into the fire, a bag of charcoal was poured into it before the flames could rise, and the flames were pressed down and more vigorous savings began, at which point Jason began to process the food.

After the 'laugher' is thoroughly cleaned, it is the most direct stew.

In the iron pot, various spices are poured into it, and the 'laughers' who are difficult to cut directly enter the pot.

When the soup in the pot was tumbling, the blood foam floated, and after Jason fished them out one by one, he picked up the wine on the side and poured it into it.

In an instant, the smell of wine melts into the smell of meat, and it rises with the water vapor.

In the time it took for the Laugher's flesh to soften completely, Jason began to change the knife to the Trickster, cut it into pieces, poured the tomato juice mixed with various spices on it, began to knead and marinate, and then sent it directly to the oven next to it.

As for the squid-like food that exudes a richer aroma, Jason chose the most modest cooking method -

Roast!

After being brushed with a layer of grease, the food that has been inserted into the iron chisel quickly cooks and the pepper is sprinkled with it.

The spicy spicy burst from the flames, which whetted Jason's appetite.

Without waiting for more, Jason just bit the roasted squid, swallowed it in his mouth, and chewed it in large gulps, the juice splashing everywhere, and his lips and teeth were fragrant.

[Devour Submariners!] 】

[Minor recovery from injury!] 】

【Satiety +3】

【Satiety: 3】

……

Just like the taste of the 'Submariner', it provides three times as much food as the 'Laugher' and 'Trickster'.

However, this does not mean that Jason will hate the 'laughers' and 'tricksters' who turn into food.

Food, it's innocent, isn't it?

Stained with tomato juice and pepper, the 'Trickster' has a sour and spicy taste, the skin has a crispy texture, and the meat is fresh and tender, especially the large bite of meat that Jason deliberately left when changing the knife, which makes people chew it in a big bite.

The most comfortable thing is that it is paired with the soup made by the 'Laugher', which is slightly mixed with the flavor of alcohol, which makes the meat more and more delicious.

A bite of meat and a mouthful of soup, Jason ate faster and faster.

[Devouring the Laugher, the Trickster!] 】

[Minor recovery from injury!] 】

【Satiety +2】

[Satiety: 5]

……

A warm feeling swirled through Jason's body.

Jason, who had not rested for a long time and had experienced several battles, felt that his energy and physical strength were recovering at a rapid pace at this time.

After a few breaths, he felt that his mental and physical strength had become extremely abundant.

"When there are no injuries, you can recover your physical strength and spirit!"

Surprise flashed in Jason's eyes, but he was immediately replaced by joy.

Because, he knows, how important it is to be able to recover physical strength and energy in a short period of time.

Just like at this moment, in this strange and dangerous environment, his trump card is the same: the ability to quickly improve his skills.

The moment of truth can save lives.

Without hesitation, Jason clicked on the skill bar.

[Yes/No consumes 2 points of satiety to increase the gunpowder weapon. Light weapons? 】

"Yes!"

With Jason's affirmative answer, [Gunpowder Weapon. Light Weapons] is boosted accordingly.

【Gunpowder Weapons. Light weapons (skilled): Not only do you know how to use light gunpowder weapons such as pistols, submachine guns, and rifles, but you also know their characteristics quite well, which is almost an effect that ordinary people need to spend 3-5 years to cultivate, effect: perception +0.2 (beginner 0.1, proficiency 0.1)]

……

After the words are revealed, the harmony of body and skill begins again.

When everything stopped, Jason instantly pulled out the MF92 and aimed ahead, a point faster than before, not because of the improvement of physical fitness, but because he knew how to draw the gun more reasonably.

After silently feeling the changes in himself, Jason was ready to continue to improve his skills.

[Yes/No consumes 4 points of satiety, 1 point of excitement of eating, and improves gunpowder weapons. Light weapons to mastery? 】

"Excitement about eating?"

Faced with this unfamiliar word, Jason was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly he was stunned.

"Monsters are strong and weak."

"There should also be a high and low level of satiety."

"The ordinary one is 'satiety', and the next level is 'food excitement'."

"In other words, if you want to 'eat the excitement', you can hunt from higher-level monsters."

"And it takes 'Excitement of Food' to be able to move up to Mastery level, and obviously, there will be a more significant change in skills at the Mastery level."

Jason, who came to such a conclusion, immediately looked at [hand-to-hand combat].

Again, he won't accumulate 'satiety' until he is safe.

[Yes/Do you consume 2 points of satiety to improve hand-to-hand combat?] 】

"Yes!"

[Hand-to-hand combat (skillful): The body itself is a powerful weapon, and after a long period of basic training, you not only have certain skills, but also gradually become stronger; Effect: Constitution +0.1, Strength +0.1】

……

Different from gunpowder weapons. Light weapons] and level-up [hand-to-hand combat] seem to be more comprehensive.

Feeling the power in his body, Jason, who had adapted slightly, turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

He had already heard the noise in the courtyard.

Apparently, Bundy had arrived with someone.

And when he pushed the door and walked out, he not only saw Sheriff Bundy with a large number of police officers, but also unexpectedly saw Finch carrying him a message.

The young police officer, dressed in civilian clothes he had seen before, held a heavy book in his hand, and when he saw Jason, he immediately trotted over and said:

"Lord Jason, Lord Dan, said to leave this to you."

"It solves your problems."

As he spoke, he handed over the book.

From the outside, this is an ordinary book, and there is basically nothing to care about except for being a little thicker.

And judging from Finch's posture and demeanor, it also proves that there is no danger in the book itself.

So, Jason was ready to raise his hand and take the book.

But the moment Jason's finger touched the cover of the book, his expression was stunned.
