Chapter 6: To the Land of the Beginning

Desert nights, cold as winter. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Locke takes out the spirits, and the night cat is in charge of lighting the fire.

The egret took out the four-horned meat that had been prepared for a long time and took out the folding grill. Start slicing the raw meat.

This is the first time that this kind of Korean barbecue has happened in this other world, and it has aroused the curiosity of Illian and Nina. The two of them gathered around the egret, curiously tasting the sauce and touching the cut ingredients.

"Is this a noodle fruit? Can this also be grilled? That sour fruit has a strong flavor and can be used for cooking? Ilian has never eaten it before. ”

"Well, please believe in the taste of Egret's special barbecue feast, and when you taste my craftsmanship, you will definitely fall in love with this dish. As he spoke, the egret marinated the sliced meat in the spices.

Although the names of spices in this other world are different, there are many kinds of spices. Egret itself is a person who loves to eat, and in the three months since he came to this world, he has also put a lot of effort into finding the familiar taste of the cuisine.

Three different fruits and vegetables were used to create the flavor of vinegar, sour fruits were used instead of lemons, and powders or juices were found to replace condiments such as cumin, chili pepper, and monosodium glutamate. If the main task of this world is to change to a chef's competition, Egret has already won at the starting line with the accumulation of food from its own world.

With the movement of the egret, the aroma of barbecued meat mixed with the smell of delicious vegetable and fruit soup wafted into everyone's nostrils, stimulating everyone's taste buds.

"At first, based on the appearance of the egret, I thought it was a traveler from the Northern Wastelands. But now, judging from the Egret's cooking skills, this little brother must be from the rich Kazan Empire. Locke had a nostalgic expression, "The captain who brought me to join the explorer team in the first place was an elite professional from the Kazan Empire. The rich meatloaf and the melodious tunes of the Kazan people. Ziz, it's wonderful. ”

As he spoke, Locke hummed a folk song peculiar to the Kazans, and the song with a deep voice pierced everyone's ears.

"Legend has it that there is treasure in the valley,

It was an ancient and mysterious place.

Just grab my bag,

You can get a lot of wealth.

But my love,

Your lonely eyes make me worry,

Rather give up that immortal glory,

I only want to stay with you in the ordinary farming village.

Inseparable lover,

Your gentleness drives me crazy.

I'd rather give up that endless riches,

I just want to see the sunrise and sunset with you. ”

As Locke sang, everyone began to hum in a shallow voice. This ballad-like song seems to have a unique charm that makes everyone smile and hum.

Jayne seemed to be stuck in a memory, and he didn't even start tasting the food that Illian handed over.

"Isn't it unappetizing?" asked Egret as he handed Jayne the wine, a little curious.

This Jayne's family is relatively low-key, although he is from the same Divine Radiance as Ilian, but Ilian has not heard of it. However, Ilian is young, and he rarely touches affairs other than exercising his life magic, so it's normal that he hasn't heard of it. And Jayne's demeanor has always revealed a kind of aristocratic etiquette, and the experienced Locke thinks that he is from a noble background, and everyone will naturally have no objections.

Jayne smiled at the egret and took a bite of the egret's signature barbecue. "It's a rare delicacy. If you are not a strong professional, I am afraid that being a chef can easily become famous all over the world. ”

"Haha. Thanks for the compliment. But I probably don't have the time to do that. "Gourmet food from Earth can conquer the tastes of otherworldly aristocrats, which really delights the egret. "My goal is to find the three treasures. It's better to do it as early as possible, but there's no time to delay a career like a chef. ”

Jayne's eyes shrank instantly when he heard this, and his tone became a little strange: "The three great treasures refer to the life jade, the infinite jade, and the bewildering heart jade?"

"What, little brother, your target is actually three treasures known as miracles?" Locke and Nightcat almost all came together, "Hahaha, that's the dream of all explorers." The whereabouts of the three major treasures have been unknown for a long time, and as long as one is found, even if it is just a clue, it can be sold for a sky-high price in any of the six empires. Not to mention the honors received. Brother, your goal is really ambitious. Night Cat laughed.

"Yes, Baoyu is not so easy to find. Dhoni drank the fruit and vegetable soup and joined the discussion. "The Scholar's Tower has been established for thousands of years, and some clues have been studied for Baoyu during this period. First of all, the last recorded copy of the Baoyu record was before the Calamity War. It can be judged, then, that Baoyu was used in war, and in the war, Baoyu was either lost or occupied by the six empires that exist today. Secondly, Baoyu is very useful, so the degree of protection is definitely the top. Even if it is not lost, it must be in the most dangerous ruins in the world. To put it mildly, even with the best explorers in the world, it may not be so easy to break through the defense mechanisms of ancient ruins. After all, after the Calamity War, there are too many ancient technologies that have been lost. ”

"No, not exactly. Jayne interjected suddenly, his brow furrowed, as if he didn't quite agree with Dhoni's reasoning. "Baoyu's clues are very important, and most of the families or individuals who know the clues cherish themselves and do not share information. Therefore, it is difficult to find Baoyu's whereabouts. As long as this information can be gathered, it will naturally not be difficult to deduce the location of Baoyu. ”

Dhoni didn't refute, but sighed. "It's easy to say, but all of the people who have this kind of clue are the big families that have had countless inheritances since before the Calamity War. It has continued until now, and they have no shortage of money and no shortage of combat power, so what do they need to share with others the information of treasures that are enough to rule the world. ”

There is still a way, as long as it .......

Jayne didn't answer, and the expression on his face seemed to make up his mind. However, everyone was immersed in the discussion of Baoyu's clues, and did not notice the change in Jayne.

The egret also sighed, the task of this goddess is really difficult to be out of the charts. In the world of ignorance, we are searching for miraculous treasures that have not even been recorded in history itself. If anyone is able to do so, please contact me.

"Elf, it seems that we will have a long time to stay in this other world to find the puzzle-like treasure jade. The egret said silently in his heart.

"Please don't worry. Your Excellency, I was given infinite life when I was created by the Goddess. And God has made Your Excellency also solidify time, and we don't need to worry about longevity at all. ”

This elf is definitely endowed with some kind of brain-dead character, and the goddess who has nothing to lose the treasure jade to another world has a character, and she definitely can't find the point of natural stay.

There shouldn't be any communication with this elf, it's a waste of feelings. Thinking of this, the egret is a little helpless, and the role of the elf is not as great as the accompanying auxiliary system. At least the auxiliary system can improve its strength at an incredible speed without bottlenecks, but the elves will only give some information that cannot be said.

"Straight to the point. After discussing it for a long time, Locke finally spoke up. "Tomorrow morning we will arrive at the Origin Land, the altar of the ancient Zanlie Empire that Lord Jayne said. Most importantly, we will face the strongest combat power in the world, a master-level demonized mecha. Without knowing the combat information of this demonized mecha, the situation is very unfavorable for us. So I'm going to make some arrangements. ”

Several people, including Egret, sat around Locke with solemn expressions. Waiting for the arrangement, even Illian was sitting up, with a serious expression on his small face.

"First of all, Ilian, as the main logistical force, needs to prepare the power of the giant god, the spring of life, and quickly judge the reinforcement materials and corresponding magic power of these three miracle powers. At the first time of the battle, protect one by one in the order of Nina, me, egret, and night cat, and exit the battle immediately after the protection is completed. Locke stopped Illion, who was about to speak, and continued: "I know you also have the ability to fight, but I need you to restore your mana in the rear, and your main task is to ensure that you always have the energy and magic to release the hymn of life, which is crucial to ensure that we complete the mission tomorrow without casualties." ”

"Secondly, Dhoni needs to improve the protection of the combat area. The Scholar Tower doesn't have any magic spells that are capable of fighting, but it is extremely researched to prevent the lost and formation magic spells from accidentally invading the battle area. In order to ensure that the combat area is not accidentally invaded, Dhoni, we need you to make a minimum of elite-level protection arrays to ensure that each combat area is protected. ”

"And as the main combat force, Nina. Tomorrow's biggest task will be yours to complete. The master realm is only slightly known to you, so tomorrow's battle will require you to make strategic judgments throughout the process. The most important thing is that you, as the bearer of the greatest pressure of the battle, need you to make a judgment to retreat immediately if the battle reaches an uncontrollable stage. Don't force it. ”

"Night Cat, with Nina as the main fighter, you need to play the role of a containment. Helping Nina win the flaws is also not an easy task, but you are the person with the most combat experience and the best eyesight besides Nina, I believe you will definitely be able to do it. ”

"I'm going to focus on attacking with Nina and helping her defend herself against over-intensified attacks. My strength rating is A+, and my system is also A+. So the one who can take on the most attacks is me. If there's damage or power that can't be avoided, be sure to duck to me right away. It's up to me to resist. ”

"What about me?" Seeing that Locke had finished arranging everyone, his voice paused, and before he could say the location of the egret, the egret was a little dumbfounded.

"Little brother, your combat power is very strong, but your combat experience and judgment are obviously lacking. It can't be used as the main attack, but you have the most powerful killer weapon that everyone doesn't have, and if there is a battle collapse or a more serious situation, you need to unleash all your strength, and use your best skills to temporarily contain the demonized mecha so that everyone can evacuate. As for Lord Jayne, all you need to do is keep the other demonized mech under control. ”

As soon as the words fell, the egret frowned, although he was indeed inexperienced, but his combat power was not so bad that he could not be used as an assist. This kind of task of running after breaking off is not a problem at all after releasing the demon battle body.

Locke seemed to know what the egret was thinking, "Little Egret, I didn't mean to underestimate you. Being recognized by us and joining this team is a testament to your strength. But team combat is completely different from solo fighting, and it's not just that we need to get familiar with your fighting rhythm, but you also need to cooperate with us. Placing you on this mission is the trust we entrust with your life. I hope you don't live up to it. ”

"Okay. Since you've said so. The egret's eyes showed more seriousness than ever before. "I will not fail you. ”
