"The cooked ones are on the left, the raw ones are on the right, if you want to eat burnt, you can bake them yourself, I'm too busy don't make noise with me!" Chen Kai gritted his teeth and rummaged through the steel drill in his hand, in order to prevent the smell of barbecue from wafting out, the entire underground stove was almost a fully enclosed space. Even the air intake is stuffed with a tube made of charcoal, the purpose is to absorb the smell of barbecue in the air and prevent it from wafting out, so Chen Kai, who works in this environment, will not be in a good mood.

In this sweltering environment, Chen Kai's most hopeful thing may be to replace the iron drill in his hand with a pig-killing knife as soon as possible, at least killing wild boars is still outside, although the battle will be dangerous, but it is definitely better than stuffing in the oven. It's a pity that Chen Kai was more unlucky, and he got this task when he drew lots, although there were a few beauties accompanying him, but after all, the sultry heat defeated the eye-catching gaze.

In fact, when Mo Yan entered the underground kitchen, he was startled by the cool equipment of several beautiful sisters inside, because the underground space was too stuffy, Su Wan and several of the girls who were assigned to make zuò dry food had to choose to wear cooler clothes, so when Mo Yan entered the kitchen, the nosebleed almost gushed out uncontrollably. However, what made him more depressed was the systematic fuzzy strategy of protecting women, which made important parts hazy in Mo Yan's field of vision. But sometimes the hazy it is, the greater the temptation for people, but Mo Yan quickly shook his head and came to his senses, or was doused with cold water. Because the underground is too stuffy, everyone will pour a basin of cold water on their bodies when they enter, and the person who poured cold water on Mo Yan was a girl named Wang Wu, who directly pulled the rope, and poured a cold on him regardless of whether Mo Yan was prepared or not.

"Ahh The icy swamp water not only cooled Mo Yan's burning heart, but also almost made him cold, especially when he was unprepared, even if the temperature in the kitchen was high, it would take time to dry his clothes, and before that, he could only follow Chen Kai's ass behind the cold clothes to help. In order to continue to enjoy the eye-catching scenery in the kitchen, Mo Yan was very resolute and took the initiative to stay and became Chen Kai's helper, responsible for delivering him skewered barbecue and cutting large pieces of meat.

But soon Mo Yan found how sad and uncomfortable his seemingly advantageous move was, when three minutes had passed, his head began to sweat, and when ten minutes had passed, white salt particles had appeared on his wet linen robe, all of which were the result of the rapid evaporation of water. At the same time, his body also fell rapidly, and the rate of decline was definitely twice that of ordinary conditions, because his position was closest to the stove, and it was several times hotter than the girls who boiled the broth at the door.

At this time, Mo Yan especially admired Chen Kai who was standing on the edge of the barbecue table that was constantly emitting high temperatures, because the temperature was far higher than the meat cutting table where Mo Yan was. It's just that what Mo Yan didn't know was that Chen Kai had been carrying an ice attribute magic spar on his body, and at the same time, other girls also had this kind of spar on his body, although it couldn't completely offset the high temperature of the underground kitchen, but at least it could make them a little more comfortable, and the speed of the body would not drop so fast. It's just that this method was discovered by Mo Yan after he washed cold water three times in a row, because Chen Kai didn't tell him, or he didn't know that Mo Yan would stay.

As for the little girl who assigned Mo Yan to work, Wang Wu directly classified him into the ranks of strange uncles and perverts after seeing his lustful eyes, and then naturally took the initiative to forget about the fact that he could cool down by wearing an ice attribute magic crystal. I was busy with my own big pot of broth powder, and at the same time, I needed to cut potatoes and vegetables and put them in the soup pot to increase the nutrition of the broth.

"By the way, what's your name?" When Chen Kai put a roasted pork on the plate on the side, he suddenly found that there was an extra person behind him, and Su Wan, who was originally skewering and cutting meat for him, was already cooking soup there with a big pot.

“…… That Brother Kai, I am the Mo Yan who wants you to borrow money! Mo Yan said depressedly, and then depressedly put an ice attribute magic crystal that he had just gotten on his neck, he now finally understood why girls couldn't be offended. Such a small ice attribute magic crystal is at most a hundred gold coins if you buy it, but Mo Yan spent five gold coins to rent it, and the use time was only one hour, and the worst thing was that the girl who lent it to him said that he loved to rent or not, which made him depressed to death.

"You are Mo Yan, the macho man who blew up the thunder cannon barrel? Why are you so thin! Chen Kai didn't see his image when he heard Fei Yun mention Mo Yan, so in his imagination, Mo Yan's appearance should be relatively tall and strong, but the reality is that the other party is relatively thin, almost a head shorter than Chen Kai.

"It's not my fault that this is thin, what can I do if I don't gain weight by eating meat naturally? Besides, is there a direct relationship between thinness and macho men? No matter how thin I am, I'm a pure man, just now! Mo Yan listened to Chen Kai's words and became even more depressed, thinking that he wanted to be in the shape of the body under the adjustment of the role, but no matter how he adjusted, it was just like this, but he accepted the title of macho man without humility, and patted his chest to say that he was very suitable for this title.

"By the way, why did you get here? Did you also draw a bad luck lot! Chen Kai took the meat skewers handed over by Mo Yan, and then skillfully smeared them with grease and spices and roasted them on the flame, and at the same time stepped on the leather bellows under his feet. The blue flames instantly rose under the wind, and at the same time, Mo Yan seemed to feel that the temperature of the entire underground space seemed to be a little higher.

"I left this on my own initiative!" Of course, Mo Yan couldn't say that he stayed to appreciate the hazy beauty of the beauty, so he lowered his head and said an answer that made Chen Kai stunned.

"You're stupid! It's so hot, you still take the initiative to stay~" Chen Kai directly gave such an answer, which made Mo Yan depressed and embarrassed, if he knew that the underground kitchen was so hot, he would not stay, and the girls here were not friendly at all, looking at him like a pervert.

"By the way, Mo Yan is here?" When Chen Kai turned around and said that, the door of the underground kitchen was suddenly opened, and the sound of a dark dagger came in from outside, of course, bringing cold air and fresh oxygen from the swamp.

"I'm here! I am here! Mo Yan heard the sound of the dark dagger as if he had heard the gospel of heaven, he directly handed the skewered barbecue to Chen Kai, and then crawled out of this place that made him hot and crazy. But after running out, he ran back and returned the cryolite in his chest to the girl who rented it to him, he didn't want to wait until the next time he saw the other party and had to pay more gold, now he was so poor in his pocket that he could run a mouse.

“… That's it! Chen Kai was very surprised with the barbecue in his hand, he thought that the other party could stay at least a few more hours, but he didn't expect to leave in just over an hour. However, he soon found that there was not much food left to prepare, so he did not feel any dissatisfaction with Mo Yan's runaway, and complained a few times at most.

When Chen Kai wiped his hands and walked out of the stuffy underground kitchen to breathe, Mo Yan, who was originally very happy, was following behind the dark dagger with his head down, preparing to leave the camp. As thieves and key personnel in the mission, they are preparing to test the effect of camouflage black mud, and the group plans to sneak into the place where the demon's gate is located to use black clay.

In fact, some tasks in the game are awarded by the players themselves or others, for example, Chen Kai was completing the task of dry food when he was busy. There is no limit to the number of tasks or items that can be completed, but only a general framework, and the player is rewarded with experience or other non-material rewards based on the consequences of the completion of the mission. Of course, this reward is sometimes hidden in the process of the mission, such as Chen Kai's dry food task, he can't get a penny of gold or experience, the only thing he gets is to increase the cooking experience at the end of the task.

Such quests are rarely reflected in the player's quest log, as most of them are of a relatively low grade, not even the lowest F rank according to the rating standards of the Mercenary Guild or the Adventurer's Guild. But sometimes there will be more advanced tasks in the tasks promulgated by the players themselves or the completion of the goals, for example, the project that Mo Yan is about to complete now, according to the news that Chen Kai got from Fei Yun, the unlucky Mo Yan obtained a C-level task, that is to say, the area he dived into was dangerous, and the level of C was straightforward, in that area, Mo Yan may encounter creatures with a level of more than the eighth order, and this infiltration area is assigned randomly, and the difficulty of all tasks is the same, But whether they will meet eighth-order characters on the real road depends on their luck. Because during the execution of the task, there will be changes with the level of the creatures that appear, if a tenth-order fire demon appears in front of Mo Yan, then the difficulty of their task will become S-level - a standard ten-dead mission.

Of course, in fact, players have subjective initiative when completing the tasks they have taken the initiative to obtain, that is, they can independently seek good fortune and avoid evil, as long as they are careful to avoid those areas where high-level monsters are hidden, or more directly, lie on the ground and pretend to be dead after sneaking in. As long as the demons pass by and don't notice that they are hiding underneath, the mission is completed, and then they can happily run back with the experience rewarded by the system.

It's just that in this way, the experience of the task reward will become low, or even directly become none, after all, the system will not reward those who steal and cheat, and all the rewards need to be fought for by themselves. Diving under the nose of an eighth-order creature is not the same as diving under the nose of a fifth-order little demon, and naturally gaining experience is different.

However, apparently most people are a little scared of this C-class quest displayed in the quest bar, after all, tasks such as running to the demon patrol area to fetch soil are only E-rank, and there is not much difference in nature between the two, and you need to dive into that area. It's just that after applying black mud, Mo Yan and they must not use skills such as shadow hiding, but directly use the skin color of their bodies to complete camouflage and hiding, which invisibly increases the difficulty a lot. Therefore, Mo Yan, who had just gotten rid of the scorching environment, immediately became depressed, especially when he recognized the difficulty of the task, and suddenly the environment in the kitchen seemed not so unbearable, but it was a pity that he could only bite the bullet now, and sneaked towards the distant death zone behind the butt of the dark dagger.

In addition to the twelve players involved in this mission, there is also Kashgar, a thief from the Red Tarantula Adventure Group. In fact, the real leader of the entire team is not the player Dark Dagger, but the more experienced Kashgar. He is a cut above players like the Dark Dagger in terms of strength and ability, so he will be more experienced in dealing with unexpected problems. Therefore, he led the team not only to reassure them, but also to Van Clery.

The group slowly lurked along the shallow swamp that they had walked several times towards the area where the Demon Gate was located, and before they could reach that area, they needed to traverse about five kilometers or so of vegetation. It's just that these vegetation began to gradually wither under the influence of demonic power, and at the same time, the mud full of water in the swamp gradually disappeared, and a large amount of water was evaporated or even directly sucked away by the power of the demonic gate, forming a dry and waterless situation in the dead area. So the area of the vegetation that gets closer to the Devil's Gate is the more desolate it becomes, and only the vegetation near the water's edge has a slight green tinge.

When Fei Yun cautiously stepped into the vegetation belt, he found that his mood at the moment was a little excited, of course, more nervous, after all, whether this black mud has any effect has not been verified, especially after applying the black mud, everyone can only be bare-chested, and there is only a pair of pants on the whole body. They had so few weapons that they could only carry a dagger, and in such a situation there was no other way than to pray that a pitch-black color similar to the soil would protect them. But they didn't sneak in during the day, but in the dark of night, after all, their pants and hair were very clear during the day. The demon's activity ability during the day is much stronger than that at night, so for the sake of safety, the Dark Dagger has set the time of infiltration at night.

A few thieves covered in black cloth led by Kashgar quickly walked through the dark vegetation forest, and everyone knew that time was short, because the sooner they reached the black soil area, the farther they could go. Not only did they have the task of testing the effect of the black mud, but they also had the task of finding a suitable hiding place for the team behind, and if there was no suitable place, they would just dig out a place, not too big, as long as they could hold up a tent and go offline.

Of course, the players who are offline are the players, and Van Clery needs to stay in the tent, after all, they are not players but real natives. However, if the tent is a tent with spatial attributes, then Van Clery and the others can rest quietly in it. Therefore, it is very important to choose a location that can be used as a downline location, but before that, you must first complete a real yàn, that is, whether the black mud can be used as a camouflaged real yàn.

"Okay~ Let's put mud on our own!" When the group rushed to the black soil border of the Demon Lands out of breath, the sky had just fallen into darkness. The dry grass and trees under their feet were trampled and immediately turned into patches of grass ash clinging to their boots, but they were quickly bounced off because Fei Yun had already begun to undress.

"Whew! It's cold! When Mo Yan took off his whole body to only his pants, he felt not embarrassment but cold, and at this moment, they suddenly found that in addition to the threat of demons, there was also a not very high temperature in this place. Perhaps due to the high temperature of the ground during the day, it seems that the temperature in the vicinity of this demon's gate will drop rapidly at night, and even hoarfrost will appear in some places.

"Stop talking nonsense, get to work! We're going to hurry, it's been an hour and we have to get two things done before dawn! The dagger pulled out a tube filled with black mud and smeared it on his body as he said in the team channel, from now on everyone knew that they couldn't make or make sounds, and the only thing they could communicate was body language and team channels. Therefore, after hearing the words of the dagger, everyone immediately acted quickly, took out the unpleasant black mud and smeared it on their bodies.

The black clay made of glue mixed with adhesive has a strong adhesion and does not dry quickly, even if it is rubbed on the ground, because all the clay is very fine before boiling. It took Chen Kai and them a long time to grind the soil, and the time to grind the soil was longer than the time to boil the black mud.

The delicate black mud makes people feel like they are using a real mask when applying, but the mask can be washed off, and this black mud is difficult to wash off unless it is raining. They had experimented with it in the camp, and even after half an hour of soaking in water, the black mud would still adhere to the skin, but the color would become lighter.

Several of them wore leather hats on their heads, and their heads were tightly wrapped. Such a hat has little defense, and its purpose is only to ensure that the hair is not exposed. Of course, you can try shaving your head so you don't have to worry about your hair, but not everyone in the team is happy to shave their heads, at least not the girls.

Dressed in dark dirt, they carefully walked into the black soil area under the leadership of Kashgar, the color of their bodies was almost the same as the soil under them, especially in this dark night, unless there was moonlight, it was really impossible to see whether it was a person or a monster walking on the land. When encountering danger, everyone's first reaction is to lie on the ground, which is dead and combined with the dirt below, unless you walk very closely, it looks like a mound on the ground. Therefore, in Fei Yun's opinion, this disguise is undoubtedly relatively successful, and the only question now is whether they will be discovered by the demons.
