In the next few days, Lu Zhe would take Su Ying to complete some cooking tasks every day, which required him to go to Tiannan and Haibei to collect all kinds of strange materials, many of which were more troublesome than purple roots and beards.

Fortunately, these things are not difficult to find, it just takes time, and during this time, there have been fights with domestic players, and there have also been small groups of foreign forces at the border.

In the end, they all turned the danger into a disaster and successfully completed the task.

Return to the Culinary Trainer in the Upper Demon City.

Su Ying handed over the task.

"It seems that there is no follow-up, and a recipe was given."

"The trainer will give each player who completes the quest a beginner recipe, but in the future, you will need to find it yourself." Lu Zhe explained.

"Oh."

"See what?"

Su Ying found the formula in the backpack and clicked it to check it.

【Cooking recipe: high-grade mussel meat. Requires Clam Meat*2, Sea Salt*1, Rosemary*1

[High-grade clam meat: food, restore 2% of the health and mana of the eater per second, must be in a non-combat state when eating, can not move, eat for more than 10 seconds, will get a special magic effect, breathe underwater for 30 minutes. 】

After reading it, Lu Zhe had a dead heart.

Empress Ou was silent for a long time and reappeared in the rivers and lakes.

The delicious mussel meat sold in the exchange is already considered a high-end product, and Lu Zhe also bought a few when he took Su Ying to catch fish last time, but the effect of the delicious mussel meat is far less than the high-grade mussel meat that Su Ying obtained this time.

Not only is the recovery speed of blood blue increased by 4 times, but the underwater breathing time is also increased by 3 times. The former may not be obvious, but the latter is very useful.

You must know that you can't eat underwater, so 30 minutes of underwater breathing can support players to go deeper and explore more of each other.

This temptation is simply deadly.

Lu Zhe has never seen this thing on the exchange, and once it comes out, it will definitely sell for a good price.

However, the materials are not cheap, mussel meat and sea salt are common, but rosemary is a rarity, and it can now be sold for 5 gold coins on the exchange.

Lu Zhe didn't care about this little money, and immediately let Su Ying get over the chef's addiction, borrowed NPC's kitchen utensils, and made 10 high-grade mussels that cost more than 5 gold.

The two of them were half of each other, and they were all happy.

……

Another week passed.

It's time for the arena to settle.

Su Ying and Lu Zhe were the first to reach the rank of second lieutenant, and it would take another week for the others to be completed.

Du Xiaoxiao went home during the day, leaving only Su Ying in the studio, and Lu Zhe specially took a day off to accompany her.

At the quartermaster's office in the main city, Su Ying happily bought the tiger mount she had been looking forward to for a long time.

Summoned as soon as he got his hands on it.

The slender figure of the little white rabbit rode on the back of a tall and mighty tiger, indescribably chic and handsome.

The mount is 10 gold coins, which is insignificant for Lu Zhe.

During this time, he sold potions and grenades, and he still had thousands of gold coins on him, even if it fell to the current exchange rate of 1:30, it was a lot of money.

Because the exchange rate is still inflated, he did not save money, but frantically hoarded some goods with obviously low prices, he knows better than anyone else the actual value of various materials, so this kind of trading is sure to make a profit, just the goods saved now, if they are sold in the future, it is also a huge amount of money.

Su Ying got the mount and took a turn in the main city, attracting a lot of attention.

At this stage, in addition to professional clubs, there are some PVP masters, and the total number of mounts is already quite a lot, but the proportion is still not high when it is scattered across the country.

"Won't you be able to ride a tiger to fight monsters in the future?" Su Ying asked with a smile.

"You think too much, the mount is just a tool to facilitate your journey, not for you to ride and fight, you can't summon the mount in the combat state, and you can't attack on the mount, you can't use skills and items."

"Huh?" Su Ying obviously didn't understand this.

"But you can defend, you can dodge and take body."

"That's not much use."

"It's very useful."

Lu Zhe smiled, knowing that Su Ying couldn't understand the meaning for the time being, and he didn't explain much.

"I'll go out for a spin." Su Ying said.

"Hmm."

Lu Zhe knew that she was going to find Qin Qingman.

Sure enough, Su Ying turned around and sent a message: "Xiaoqing, come and see my mount." ”

The other party quickly replied: "Where are you?" ”

"Going to the entrance of Bank No. 54 in the Demon City."

"Coming soon."

Not long after, Qin Qingman also came on the same tiger.

There is only one style and color of the mount given by the rank, and there is no choice.

Qin Qingman already had a mount, and Su Ying was envious for a long time, so as soon as he got it, he hurriedly called his friends to share the joy.

In fact, the mounts are all the same, and there is nothing to look at.

But the excitement of women is obviously not in the thing itself, but in the excuse to get together.

"It's beautiful."

"So are you."

Two beauties rode their mounts side by side in the city, especially among them, there were star players like Qin Qingman, which naturally attracted countless people to follow.

Qin Qingman was one of the first players in the country to own a mount, and as November's signature, the club will of course prioritize solving this problem for her.

And the method used is also very simple.

Battlefield Diamond Rank.

Arena 2V2 ranked 34th in the world.

Her arena teammate was none other than Qiu Yan.

In fact, the combination of fire law and priest did not have an advantage, if Qiu Yan really wanted to score points, it was impossible to match with Qin Qingman.

But in order to let Qin Qingman get the mount as soon as possible, as Qiu Yan, he also had to be a sparring partner.

Even so, they still fought all the way to this ranking with a complete victory, and Qiu Yan, who is known for his high explosives and high damage, compressed the time of each game to the shortest.

The two rode the tiger all the way out of the city to a place where no one was around.

"The Gray God's mount is here." Qin Qingman asked.

"Well, a few of the other guys on our team are almost there."

"When are you going to fight the eighth layer of the secret realm?"

"I don't know, but he said he could try it once he got a mount, what about you?" Su Ying asked rhetorically.

"I've tried twice, but it doesn't work at all, that slag path has only been more than half a point, and like this, I'm afraid I will have to upgrade another five levels to go." Qin Qingman also did not hide it.

"Can't the money team do anything?"

"He, he's been worried about this recently, I said I'll ask the gray god what he thinks, and he resolutely refuses to let it, men's self-esteem is sometimes ridiculous."

Su Ying covered her mouth and smiled: "It's been a long time since my family mentioned the secret realm, why don't I ask?" ”

"Don't do it, let them compete with each other for this kind of thing, let's just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight." Qin Qingman said.

"Makes sense." Su Ying smiled.

After knowing Qin Qingman for a long time, I found more and more that her casual side was very different from the cold image on the TV network.

"I heard that you met Lu Xiang a few days ago?"

"Yes, we also killed a lot of Mongolian players together, how do you know?"

"There are videos on the Internet, the gray god is really powerful, our captain and they have studied the video all night."

"Lu Xiang is also so powerful." Su Ying said.

"Lu Xiang's offense is really terrifying, and no one is his opponent when he hits the front."

Qin Qingman had fought against Lu Xiang more than once in the previous league, of course, she knew the strength of the other party very well, especially since she was still treated, and she was often the target of attack, with her ability, she would be seconds if she didn't pay attention to it.

"It's just too impulsive." Su Ying remembered the scene when Lu Xiang rushed into the crowd that day, and she couldn't help but want to laugh.

"Reckless, that guy is also so virtuous in reality, frizzy."

"Have you seen it?"

"Don't you know that I've seen him get married."

"He's married?"

"I can't see it, I got married at the age of 22, and I know his wife, all of whom are in the circle."

"That's a fate."

"What, I guess the reckless man is troublesome to fall in love, so he just found one around."

"Is that an exaggeration?"

"That's what I think anyway......"

“……”

The two women gossiped all the way, and Lu Zhe couldn't listen to it anymore.

In the afternoon, Du Xiaoxiao called and said that she wanted to stay at home for one night, Lu Zhe was not worried that Su Ying would spend the night in the studio alone, so he stayed and leveled the sofa in the living room for one night.

……

Early the next morning.

The weather is changing, and it was fine before getting up, but when I was ready to go out, it suddenly rained heavily.

Lu Zhe looked out of the window of the studio, and the heavy rain fell from the sky like a dump, and the pedestrians on the road holding umbrellas were not spared.

Because of the proximity, he usually walks to work, but today in order not to be late, he could only take a car, but he was still drenched in rain before getting into the car.

The door of Warwick Company was full of employees shaking their clothes with umbrellas, and Lu Zhe rushed all the way from the car to the gate and came to the office smoothly.

"Brother Lu is early."

"Brother Lu is early."

"Early."

Sun Yifan and Wu Miao really arrived early, not only cleaned the office again, but also started typing code very diligently.

The professional skills of these two people are indeed very solid, and the tasks assigned to them by Lu Zhe can be completed on time. At present, the two are working together to solve the simulation software of a character running on various terrains, and it is almost finished.

Lu Zhe stood behind them and nodded with satisfaction.

Most of the software that Ye Qing explained had been completed, but Lu Zhe had made some adjustments to several of them, the purpose of which was of course to make it more suitable for Su Ying to use.

This part is considered his personal work, but the workload is not large, so it was also thrown to Sun Yifan and Wu Miao.

Young people, you need to exercise.

Lu Zhe stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with his hands behind his back, watching the pouring rain outside, listening to the sound of the keyboard behind him.

This evil capitalism.

It's depraving.

At noon, he took a nap on the sofa.

As soon as the afternoon work time came, Sun Yifan came to him.

"Brother Lu, we're done."

"All three pieces of software are done?"

"Hmm." Wu Miao has always liked to laugh.

"Have you run it?"

"I've tried, it's okay for the time being."

"I'll see."

The work of the two is indeed very good, and Lu Zhe's requirements have basically been completed, although there are some things that are not wrong in principle and need to be modified, but Lu Zhe did not put them forward on the spot.

These two people came to the company for a few days, worked very hard, and consciously worked overtime every day, even Lu Zhe couldn't stand it.

You two are working so hard, how can I be embarrassed as a team leader?

"Very good, let's do it for now, rest in the afternoon."

"Huh? Nothing else to do? Sun Yifan was stunned.

"No, let's talk about it tomorrow, don't work overtime tonight, go back early."

Lu Zhe still has some work to do on his side, but now the progress has far exceeded expectations, and the work is incomplete, so why work so hard.

"Oh." The two returned to their seats, seemingly dazed.

I don't work during working hours and don't know what to do.

"Brother Lu, is it possible to play games?" Wu Miao leaned over and asked in a low voice.

"Well, feel free when the work is done."

Lu Zhe also logged in to the game himself at this time, but his position was the innermost side, and ordinary people couldn't see his screen unless they deliberately went around behind him.

With Lu Zhe's consent, the two were elated.

After all, they are all young people, how can they not like to play? It's just that I don't want to lose this job opportunity, so I've always been cautious.

Lu Zhe doesn't go online often during the day, and leveling is basically a person.

Su Ying and Hyacinth already have a very tacit understanding, and occasionally joining Qin Qingman is even more efficient, so Lu Zhe rarely bothers them even if he is online during the day.

Lin Qi's incident has completely subsided, and he will finally not receive any more apologies from others, although he has money, it is quite annoying.

Lin Qi has been discharged from the hospital and returned to his home, although it is not an official comeback, the club still arranged a grand welcome ceremony, many fans were invited to attend, and even contacted Lu Zhe in the game, hoping that he would be a special guest.

Lu Zhe made up his mind not to return to the professional circle, so it was naturally impossible for a real person to appear again, so he politely refused on the grounds of a long distance and busy work.

The fate is also understood, after all, the bad bad wolf has never revealed his deity, and this kind of invitation is mainly polite.

After going online at noon, he did not continue to level up, but drove his canoe from the coastal coast of Putian City and headed southeast.

Once you enter the sea, you will have to rely on a map to locate and orient you.

The maximum speed of the canoe is 80 knots, and if you convert it to speed, it is 148.16 kilometers per hour, which is of course impossible in reality, but the range of the ocean in the game is the same as reality, and if the ship or the like is still according to the real speed, it basically can't do anything.

If a sea expedition in the game takes the same amount of time as in reality, war will almost never break out.

In addition, the speed of 80 knots is not something that everyone can do.

The automatic speed of the canoe is only 20 knots, and manual control can be greater than this value, and to reach a speed of 80 knots, in addition to the professional hand speed, it must also be maintained all the time, which is obviously not enough for many people.

Even if it is Lu Zhe, the speed of 80 knots can only be maintained for about half an hour, which is almost the limit.

Therefore, after Lu Zhe set the canoe to sail automatically, he went to take a nap.

If it is later, this practice is very dangerous, because it is difficult to guarantee that you will not encounter the enemy halfway.

But now he is the only one in the world who owns a ship, so naturally there is no such problem, and there is a possibility of encountering monsters or pirates in the sea on the way, but this probability is not high, and even if you encounter it, you will be unlucky.

When I woke up, I found that the canoe had run aground on the beach.

Open the map.

Lu Zhe nodded with satisfaction, this was his destination.

Ray Island.
