Chapter 85: The Correct Usage of Ravens
It's better to act than to move.
Chu Guang immediately found an axe and chopped the joints of the hind legs of the split-claw crab, which was almost as long as a baseball bat.
Not to mention, this crab leg looks quite solid, thick and long, and it weighs six or seven pounds, which is enough for two or three people to eat.
The crab meat of the white flowers dangles in the crab shell, looking tender like tofu, full of high-quality protein and fat.
This big guy looks so ugly from the outside, and the mud all over his body seems to be unwashable, but I didn't expect the crab meat inside to look very cool.
Just before lunch, Chu Guang randomly selected a young player passing by and asked him to summon the crow to the house of the sanatorium.
Without waiting for the crow to ask what was wrong with him, Chu Guang handed out the crab leg in his hand and showed her the crab meat.
"Can you eat it?"
Crow looked confused and nodded in a daze.
"Uh, it should be possible?"
I didn't see any green.
However, how can you rest assured that there is no basis for words.
Chu Guang, who had always acted cautiously, continued in a commanding tone.
"Take a bite."
That look was like a gift.
It's just like the NPCs in other games that guard next to the respawn point.
However, the gifted players don't think so.
Seeing that the manager was about to stuff the crab leg into his mouth, the crow hurriedly stepped back and waved his hand, crying and laughing.
"Wait, wait! This is a raw duck! Why don't you let me eat it when it's cooked? She didn't resent the manager's tough attitude, after all, she wasn't a real person.
Gan!
Why do you care so much in the game?
If you want to eat, you will eat, and you will not be able to open your mouth and take a bite.
I didn't expect this little player to be so particular. However, Chu Guang thought about it and felt that what she said seemed to make some sense.
Freshwater crabs are different from deep-sea crabs, and there are many parasites in freshwater environments, so it is not advisable to eat them raw.
After all, not being poisonous doesn't mean that you won't have diarrhea if you eat it, but you can't die after eating it for a while. It's like no matter how high your physique is, there's no need to pick up unclean things to eat, right?
Thinking of this, Chu Guang no longer insisted, but said in a different way of thinking.
"I'll give you a mission."
"What, what task?"
Crow's face was full of suspicion and vigilance, and he always felt that the word mission was full of conspiracy.
However, Chu Guang didn't bother to explain at all, and only shoved the crab leg the length of a baseball bat into her hand.
"The content of the task is very simple, first step 1, you first go and get this crab leg cooked...... It's 2 copper coins, take it to the warehouse and buy some charcoal. ”
It seems that this task will be triggered step by step.
Although it always feels like there is a pitfall, as a player, Crow still can't resist the temptation of "exclusive missions" in the end. Confused, he took the 2 copper coins "task props" given by Chu Guang, and ran to the warehouse to buy charcoal.
Soon, Raven returned with the charcoal she had just bought.
I saw that she carefully found an empty room on the first floor of the sanatorium, squatted in the corner of the wall and surrounded a small circle with stones.
Then put the charcoal on it, light the fire, hum a song and start roasting the crab legs.
Just as the crow was roasting the crab legs, Chu Guang, who was standing at the door of the room and waiting boredly, couldn't help but drift away with divergent thoughts.
Anyway, why can't cockroaches eat the same scavengers, but crabs can?
Will......
In fact, it is also edible?
It's just that no one has tried.
Puzzled, his gaze unconsciously drifted to the back of the crow.
Coincidentally, the shell of the crab leg on the fire was roasted and cracked, making a popping sound.
The sudden sound startled the crow, who was concentrating on roasting the crab legs, and reflexively shrank back his neck and shoulders, but he didn't sense someone's bad intentions.
Chu Guang walked into the room and looked at the crab leg in her hand.
I saw that the muddy blue crab shell was roasted into a circle of black wax red, and the center of the shell was cracked with a small crack.
Traces of white water vapor and bubbles came out of the cracks, and the fragrance that had been smothered in the shell for a long time overflowed the whole room in an instant.
"Wow...... It smells so good. ”
Raven sniffed and swallowed greedily.
Anyway, it looks even better than king crab.
The point is that she has eaten king crab, not this!
"Is it baked?"
Hearing the urging behind him, Crow came back to his senses and realized that he was still on a mission, and hurriedly stood up with a crab leg.
"Dear Administrator, I have completed the task you have assigned!"
"Good."
Taking the roasted crab leg from the crow's hand, Chu Guang waited for it to be less hot, broke it in half from the middle, and divided her in half.
"Ate it."
"Yes!"
Who would say no to cooked food?
The crow obediently took the crab leg with both hands, stuffed it into its mouth and took a careful bite, and when it found that it was not hot, it immediately devoured it, and then looked up at the manager expectantly.
Chu Guang didn't speak, but waited quietly for a while, and when he saw that there was no toxic reaction, he tasted the portion in his hand.
The aroma of crab meat spreads between the lips and teeth.
Although it has a bit of an original fishy smell, it does not affect the tender and smooth taste with a little springy teeth. It is also in line with Mr. Shuren's words, high-end ingredients often only need the most simple cooking methods.
In one word, delicious!
Especially for Chu Guang, who had eaten jerky and dry food for too long, this bite of crab meat simply rekindled his hope for food.
The only fly in the ointment is that when he took the crab leg just now, he found that this split claw crab was actually a male and did not have crab roe.
It's a pity that you can only nibble on crab legs.
"Not bad."
Chu Guang, who had chewed slowly and finished taking a bite, nodded, and then took another bite with an expressionless face, and took a second bite...... Countless mouthfuls.
Not to mention.
This thing is really getting better and better.
It would be even more beautiful if you had some cooking wine to remove the fishy smell and vinegar mixed with garlic to enhance the fragrance......
The crow waited with his eyes wide, holding half of the cool crab leg shell in his hand, and waited for a long time without waiting for the next step.
Seeing that the manager had finished gnawing the crab legs in her hands, she finally couldn't help but bring a hint of urging and asked in a low voice.
"Honorable Administrator, may I ask you...... Any other commands? ”
Chu Guang wiped his mouth and gave her the crab leg shell in his hand.
"No, just find a place for me that doesn't get in the way and throw it away."
Crow looked at the crab leg shell in his hand, then looked at the manager, hesitated for a long time before holding back a sentence.
"That...... What about the rewards? ”
Chu Guang looked at her blankly.
“…… What rewards? ”
Seeing the manager's unremembered expression, Crow suddenly became anxious and hurriedly reminded.
"That's it, it's the task reward...... Isn't it a task to grill crab legs? I'm done, right? ”
Chu Guang was silent for a while, looked at her with a strange expression, and nodded slowly.
"Well, it's done."
Hearing this, Crow's face rekindled with hope, and his eyes reflected the light of hope.
"That's—"
Chu Guang: "...... But don't you eat it too? ”
Raven: "??? ”
What a duck!
Is that okay?!
……
You can't be too greedy.
Isn't it enough to have lunch with a great manager and enjoy something more noble than king crab?
No matter how much the little player grinds his mouth, Chu Guang, who doesn't want to speak, looks at her with that "I'm an NPC" expression.
He now understands Xiaoqi a little.
Pretending not to be smart seems to be really easy to do.
In the end, Raven still failed to get the reward she expected from her esteemed manager. Leaving this sad place for her.
However, the crow crow with the strong heart was only sad for two seconds, and then quickly regained his spirits.
In fact, a wave of rational analysis, there is no such thing as a quest without a reward, because this does not conform to the logic of game design!
Especially this kind of "exclusive mission" that the core NPC "invites" a player to do, and the task does not fail, and it is impossible that there will be no reward at all.
The rewards have definitely already been paid!
It's just that it's not through money or contribution points, it's settled in another way.
Crow instantly thought of what she had chatted with the planner in the station text message, her eyes gradually excited, and she whispered to herself.
"That's right, NPCs are all favorable, why did I forget such important information!"
If you don't give experience or money, you must have a good impression!
Ah, why am I so stupid!
I even asked for a reward from NPCs!
Thanks to the NPC not giving, if the bad feeling is exchanged for silver coins, wouldn't you have to regret it!
Thinking of this, Crow was glad in his heart, fortunately he was not reluctant, and fortunately he was reluctant for a long time, and the NPC did not let go.
The only pity is that the favorability can't be checked, it is said that the weight value is hidden, and I don't know how much this task has been added.
But though, isn't that kind of online game article with intubation in the back of the head all written?
The protagonist made a simple meal for the NPC.,The NPC didn't pay for it and only gave a thumbs up.,After a while, the protagonist and the reader forgot about it., NPC suddenly came out and danced to brush up on a sense of existence.,Popping is a big sword slapped in the protagonist's pocket.,Popping is a unique cheats that don't pass on men and women, only pass on you.,The protagonist、Readers have slapped their thighs and applauded.。
Good guys, it turns out that meal is foreshadowing!
She's sure to have seen something like that in somewhere, definitely! I've just read too much, and I can't remember which one it is for a while.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was possible.
The crow, who was still a little depressed, couldn't close his mouth, and smirked vigorously, as if he had grasped the future.
Favorability.
Hey, hey, hey.
Hidden Mission!
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Suddenly, the snow outside the house, and the cool breeze blowing through my ears and ankles, didn't feel so cold.
Holding a basket of furs, Fuji Vine is coming out of the warehouse.
Coincidentally seeing a crow passing by the door, and coincidentally attracted by that silly smile, Fujito couldn't help but look at her twice.
Saying......
Does this guy really matter?
That expression always felt like eating the wrong mushroom.
But Fujito took two looks, then stopped paying attention to the guy, hummed a cheerful tune energetically, and continued to the tailor's stall not far from the warehouse.
This evening, the great and wise administrator, will allocate her land for the construction of the tailor's hut.
At that time, her identity will be from a small tailor to a big boss of Fuji Teng!
Fujito has already thought about it.
It doesn't matter if she becomes a rich woman or not, the main thing is that she likes to make clothes. She wants to make those clothes with her carefully designed logo sell all over the wasteland!
At that time, not only the players, but even the NPCs in the game will wear the clothes she designed.
Completely realistic virtual reality game.
It's amazing!!
……
Afternoon.
The snow is getting heavier and heavier.
In order to prevent the trenches from being buried by snow, Chu Guang instructed the players on duty at the gate to report to him as soon as they found that the trenches were waterlogged or covered with snow.
At the same time, in order to prevent the marauders from approaching while the heavy snow was falling, he sent two more Perception and two Agility players to team up from the north and east gates of the wetland park respectively, and carefully reconnoiter along the main road.
If there is a situation, come back and report it immediately.
After doing these things, Chu Guang, who put on a deerskin coat outside, walked to the industrial area north of the sanatorium.
I saw that he brought four pieces of wood, two of which were inserted at the door, two of which were attached to the building of the sanatorium, two points and one line, and a 5m wide main road was measured.
The area of the entire outpost is actually not very large, and according to the wall, the length and width are just over 100 meters.
The five-meter-wide main road is a bit redundant no matter how you look at it, but for the sake of future planning, Chu Guang still decided to make the road around the "resurrection point" wider.
The main road was standardized, and then Chu Guang made a mark with branches at intervals along the main road like a grid, and at the same time marked the corresponding points on the sketch of the outpost, and used numbers to mark the area before the points.
After that, you have to put a sign on the circled plot to correspond to the grid drawn on the map.
"Tsk, I didn't expect this surveying and mapping to be a technical job."
I knew I was going to find a PE teacher to help.
The area within the fence is a little larger than the playground.
I remember when I was in school, there was no laser mapper, and the physical education teacher walked along the playground with a spoon, and it was a straight line, which was straighter than what the math teacher drew on the blackboard.
Looking at the sky that was not early, Chu Guang shook the snow on the small notebook, returned to the sanatorium, and summoned the life professional players of the previously approved industrial land.
In fact, there are not many people involved, after all, counting the mosquitoes who submitted the materials later, there are only five projects he approved.
However, there are far more players around than that.
The vast majority of people come to see the excitement.
"The land is divided, the land is divided!"
"The land has been reformed!"
"I wish my steel workshop was closer to the resurrection point."
"It's unrealistic, you fill in such a large area, how can it be next to the resurrection point, don't think about it!"
There was no more noise in my ears.
With a meticulous seriousness on his face, Chu Guang, who was holding a small notebook in his hand, cleared his throat and loudly announced his arrangement.
"The approved industrial land has been marked on the map."
"Players who have been approved for the application project, please come forward to claim it yourself."
