Chapter 25: What's going on in your head?
Labyrinth of Trials, Level 2.
"I see, is this a unicorn?"
Xu Shuo looked at the sheep in front of him who was digging the ground with his front hooves, glaring at his sheep with an angry face, thinking that this guy did look like he could eat, and the only difference from the sheep in the world he originally lived in was that he was missing a horn.
"There really is a unicorn, Mr. Xu Shuo, have you been here before?" Lilian exclaimed.
"It's all about intuition, intuition." Xu Shuo lifted the dagger and slowly approached the unicorn in front of him, "Anyway, this guy is sure it's our dinner, right?" ”
As if he understood Xu Shuo's words, the unicorn let out a piercing cry, lowered his head, and rushed towards Xu Shuo with the sharp horns above his forehead.
Xu Shuo dodged the unicorn sprint with a roll, but the unicorn did not brake, but directly hit the stone wall not far behind Xu Shuo.
Xu Shuo turned his head and found that a deep hole appeared in the wall that was stabbed by the sharp horns of the unicorn sheep, and he couldn't help but shudder, it was worthy of being a Lv2 demonic beast, although the attack method was simple, but if it was stabbed by the sharp horn, it would be a death if it was not good.
The unicorn shook its head and rushed towards Xu Shuo again.
"Come on, let me see what you're capable of."
Xu Shuo held the knife in his backhand, tensed the spirit of his whole body, and rolled again at the moment when the unicorn rushed to him, but this time he rolled towards the front side of the unicorn sprint, while stabilizing his body, Xu Shuo handed the knife out horizontally, and the unicorn sprinted towards the original trajectory, and one leg naturally hit the blade in Xu Shuo's hand.
I have to say that the dagger that Mei lent to Xu Shuo was really sharp, and Xu Shuo was prepared that the knife might be knocked off, but the moment the leg of the unicorn touched the blade, it was easily cut, and the touch was as light as cutting vegetables. No wonder Barton said that this knife was Mei's treasure before, this short knife is really amazing, in Xu Shuo's memory, even if it is a knife cut by modern machinery, it may not be so sharp.
The unicorn lost one leg and immediately lost its center of gravity and fell to the ground, screaming and struggling desperately to get up on its remaining three legs. However, Xu Shuo didn't give it a chance, and immediately stepped forward to mend the knife after the first blow, and cut off the head of the unicorn sheep.
The blood of the unicorn was sprayed all over the ground, and the air was confused with the strong smell of blood. Lilion turned her head in disbelief.
"It's finally done, huh~" Xu Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, but then he thought of a question: "However, how do you take care of this guy?" It doesn't seem like there's a fire here, do you eat raw? ”
"If it's fire, I have a way." Lilian said weakly, "However, I want to borrow your knife from Mr. Xu Shuo." ”
"Knives?" Xu Shuo couldn't figure out what the knife had to do with fire, but he still handed the dagger to Lilian, "Here." ”
Lilian took the dagger and asked, "Is there a fire right here?" ”
Xu Shuo looked left and right and said, "This layer is the territory of the unicorn sheep, it is not surprising when there will be a unicorn sheep again, it is safer for us to return to the cave with water on the previous layer." ”
"Yes, yes." Lilian agreed.
Xu Shuo picked up the thigh that the unicorn had been cut off before, weighed it, and felt that it was enough for two people to eat, so he put the leg of mutton on his shoulders and took Lilian back to the boss room on the first floor. Xu Shuo was vigilant when he passed through the iron door of the room, and after finding that the boss had not been refreshed, he returned to the first floor from the boss room, and then followed the marks he had made before and walked back to the secret treasure room on the first floor.
After returning to the secret treasure room, Xu Shuo said to Lilian: "Okay, it should be no problem here."
Lilian nodded, crouched down, and began to carve something on the ground with her dagger.
Xu Shuo watched from the sidelines, and soon he could see what Lilian was drawing - it was a magic array, and the outer area was a circle about half a meter in diameter, with a five-pointed star pattern and some symbols that Xu Shuo couldn't understand, in short, it looked quite complicated.
After about five minutes, Lilion stopped drawing, only to see her put a hand on the pattern on the edge of the circle and begin to chant something.
“…… Fire Spirit, please give me a symbol of warmth and hope, and the Tinder of Fire will appear. ”
A flash of fire began to appear in the center of the magic circle, and after a few seconds it grew into a fist-sized flame.
"That's it, the knife will be returned to you, Mr. Xu Shuo." Liliam handed the knife back to Xu Shuo.
Xu Shuo took the knife, looked at the fire on the ground in a bit of confusion and asked, "Is this magic......?" Isn't your vocation a teacher? ”
Lilian blinked her eyes and said with some confusion: "This is general magic, it is a simple magic that anyone can use as long as they can draw magic arrays." Mr. Xu Shuo, don't you know? ”
Xu Shuo shook his head.
Lillian explains, "Universal magic is magic that can be used by ordinary people, but it is complicated and time-consuming to use. Specialized magic, on the other hand, is a high-level magic that can only be used by magicians, and is more powerful and versatile. ”
"I see, teachable." Xu Shuo nodded.
After that, because there were no barbecue tools such as wooden sticks, Xu Shuo had to cut the meat on the leg of unicorn lamb into pieces and stick it in a knife to roast. The fire summoned by the magic array is only the size of a fist, so it can only roast one piece of meat at a time.
Xu Shuo randomly picked a piece to roast, and with the burning of the flame, the thigh meat began to exude an attractive aroma, and in the process of roasting, a layer of golden grease began to emerge from the surface of the leg meat, and the fat bubbled up one after another at the high temperature, making a sizzling sound.
(And fat...... In this bare labyrinth, what does the unicorn eat to grow so big? )
Xu Shuo was puzzled, and suddenly heard a sound of "goo~", which seemed to be someone's stomach, and he looked up at Lilian, who was sitting opposite, who buried his face in his knees shyly.
Xu Shuo looked at the roast leg of lamb in his hand and felt that it was almost over, so he wanted to take the roast meat off the knife and give it to Lilian, but after his fingers touched the meat piece, he found that the freshly roasted meat was very hot, so he simply handed the knife to Lilian along with the roasted leg of mutton.
"You eat first, I'll bake it when you're done." Xu Shuo said, "Be careful, it's still hot." ”
Lilian hesitated, whispered "thank you", took the dagger, blew on the roast, and began to eat in small bites.
"Well, it's delicious." Liliam looked satisfied.
"Really? If you don't have seasonings, won't you feel that the taste is light? Xu Shuo asked.
"The taste is a little lighter, but the meat of the unicorn itself has a fragrant aroma, and it is still delicious if you taste it carefully."
Lilian said, tore off a small piece of barbecue, handed it to Xu Shuo's mouth, and said with a red face: "Mr. Xu Shuo, ah~"
"Uh......"
Faced with the sudden feeding, Xu Shuo opened his mouth half hesitantly, while Lilian took the opportunity to send the meat into Xu Shuo's mouth.
The meat of the unicorn does have an umami flavor and is very tender, and the roasted fat is also fragrant. But compared to barbecue, Xu Shuo will care more about Lilian, after the little girl fed him, her face became more and more red, and she didn't dare to raise her head to look at him, she just lowered her head and nibbled on the barbecue in her hand, as if she wanted to pretend not to care, but her acting skills were really clumsy.
(This guy, is it supposed to ...... )
Xu Shuo once again used the eye of love to check Lilian's favorability for him, and found that the number had become "49".
(Long again?) What is this stupid lady thinking in her head, is she self-attacking all the time? )
