Chapter 17: Bloody Mary's Gourmet Recipe

When the sky was completely dark, the force 7 wind on the sea still did not stop.

The Man-Shark, which was preparing to go to the pirate port "Iron Anchor Bay" for repairs, did not dare to risk capsizing and continued to sail at night.

Instead, the old captain Salman led him to a remote island away from the normal shipping route.

Successfully anchored in a sheltered harbor using a spare anchor in the bilge.

[Bloody Eye] did not give Byron any more chance to perform, but personally demonstrated his above-level seafaring ability in front of the crew.

Let them know that in addition to being a strong force, he is also a good pirate captain.

Byron was also very conscious of not stealing the limelight.

In fact, as an outstanding graduate of the Royal Naval Academy, and a core member of the royal family of the Kingdom of Hastings.

His mind had the most precious nautical charts that Hattings had ever gathered, and he knew many hidden supply points, ocean routes, pirate ports, rare mineral deposits...

At least ten years ahead of lower-class adventurers and ordinary private explorers.

This valuable knowledge is also his only treasure now.

Just wait for him to realize it one by one on the road of future growth.

However, after becoming acting captain of the sea, Byron obtained the privilege of entering and leaving the captain's room, reading nautical charts, and using the compass, marine clock, and sextant.

Of course, if there is a Navigator or Navigator of the Lighthouse sequence on the ship, none of these tools are needed.

They themselves are the most powerful human flesh navigators and will definitely not get lost at sea.

"Pull! One, two! One, two! ...”

A group of pirates drove several small boats and dragged huge fishing nets out of the sea.

The live fish and crustaceans collected from the island were disposed of on the spot and sent to the kitchen of the Maneater.

Goo-too, goo-too...

The milky white thick fish soup in the cauldron is bubbly, and the freshest sea fish and carefully matched spices transform the otherwise ordinary ingredients.

Byron, who had already entered his role, wore a chef's hat, tasted a bite of the delicious fish soup, and nodded with satisfaction:

"Yes, although there are differences in the spices of the two worlds, relying on the [Logbook]'s ability to peep secretly, the degree of restoration is at least ninety percent.

This pot... Purine bisque is qualified!

After that, I can find bamboo to make a few more steamers.

Steamers are much more thermally efficient than ovens and pots, and can cook the most food with the least amount of fuel, making them ideal for use on sailboats.

It can also be steamed to retain the most delicious taste of those high-quality ingredients, so that even the most picky tongue gourmets will want to stop. ”

After the awakening of [spirituality], Byron's senses and control over his body skyrocketed, and his hands-on ability was directly full.

Relying on the various food recipes that have been seen and eaten, it is easy to pretend to be a star chef.

Plucking a single hair can crush the entire food desert!

Soon, Byron prepared three dishes and one soup with the capture of the pirates near the island and the ship's inventory.

The finest parts were packed in several silver platters, held up on a huge wooden plate, ready to be personally presented to his "most beloved" Mr. Captain.

The two pirates who helped the cook also carried out all the rest of the food.

The unique, enticing aroma cheered the hungry pirates.

At this time, not to mention the well-prepared food, even the nautical biscuits that have been damp and maggots are delivered to their eyes, and they will also eat with relish.

Byron knocked on the door of the captain's cabin, located on the top floor of the stern.

"Come in!"

I heard a voice that was clearly impatient.

In order to prevent the bad water in his stomach from accidentally flowing out of the corners of his mouth, Byron restrained all the expressions on his face and pushed the door in like a meticulous noble deacon.

The tall stern is far from the moisture and salt spray of the sea, and the conditions are much better than those of the lower cabins.

There are bright windows and red curtains made of velvet.

Shiny brass and silver artifacts, locked treasure chests, and a variety of fine hot and cold weapons glittering on the weapon racks.

There was also a sweet smell of honey, maple sugar, cane sugar, etc., and it was clear that the captain was also an avid sweet-tooth.

[Bloody Eye] Salman, who had changed his clothes again and returned to his gentlemanly posture, was sitting at his desk.

But in the dim light of the whale oil lamp, the teak desk was not a nautical chart, but a somewhat strange book.

On the page that was opened, a small passage of lingua franca was written in some kind of bright red handwriting.

- Porpoise pudding.

Add porpoise blood and fat, oats, salt, pepper, ginger, stir well, stuff into porpoise intestines, and cook for a long time until soft and glutinous, not too hard.

Then take it out, bake it on a small basis and serve it.

Obviously, this is a recipe.

It's just that the "pudding" in this recipe is very different from the pudding in Byron's impression, and it is more like Byron's cognition... Blood sausage.

Meat, animal blood, and other excipients are poured into the intestines and cooked for consumption.

Moreover, a recipe that is so crude that he has never even heard of it, let alone a meeting.

Can you believe that there are recipes in the world that don't even have a metaphysical unit of measurement like "a little???

However, Byron, who had a solid reserve of extraordinary knowledge and was proficient in a variety of extraordinary languages, felt that there seemed to be something hidden in the intricate decorative patterns of the pages.

Just when he was driven by the exuberant desire to solve puzzles in the [Logbook], he was about to take a closer look.

Syllable!

Salman casually closed the page and set it aside.

It also made Byron see the name of the book - "Bloody Mary's Gourmet Cookbook".

Not sure why.

Seeing the charred pages and scarlet handwriting, Byron inexplicably thought of human burnt skin, burnt fat, and flowing blood.

And with that the frightening... Strong appetite!

It seems that I sincerely think that those things are delicious.

If it is an ordinary chef, I am afraid that I can't control the desire in my heart at this time, and reach out to touch it.

Byron shuddered, realizing what it was.

"It's... Forbidden knowledge! ”

Human beings themselves are just a bunch of mortal beings who have risen from the mud and dust, and have never been the masters of the otherworld.

Every spiritual ascension is a personal 'transgression' that bears unpredictable risks.

In the transcendent's perception of this world.

The whole world is filled with violent, chaotic, essentia tides full of unknown dangers.

Outside the seemingly peaceful known human world, I don't know how many dark creatures, degenerates, evil spirits, and even the most evil weirdness are hidden.

One of the basic abilities of the Silver Law, created by the Creator, is to act as a spiritual dam to protect the entire human race!

It connects the spirituality of all human beings throughout the ages.

In the seven-layer network of laws from shallow to deep, all the history, knowledge, and even ineffable experiences of the human race are precipitated.

Most of these extraordinary knowledge and abilities that have been passed down through the ages are passive abilities that are not gorgeous at all, and their power is still very ordinary.

For example: [Weather Intuition], [Erudite and Strong], [Long Sword Mastery], [Poison Identification], [Rock Sheep Footsteps], [Extraordinary and Long-lasting]...

The highest principle is to follow: stability! Stable! Stable!

From the first step of the [Ladder of Glory], you can see the end at a glance.

As long as they are in the same profession, there is almost no difference in the extraordinary abilities obtained by two people after each rank promotion.

The good thing is that all of this knowledge and ability has been tested over hundreds of thousands of years, and there will never be inexplicable side effects for users.

Moreover, just by touching the corresponding level of the legal network, you can master the corresponding professional knowledge in a very short time.

To become the most top-notch presence in the corresponding industry, there is no need to learn at all.

But [forbidden knowledge] is different.

Dangerous, mysterious, and powerful, transcendents of any profession can acquire treacherous abilities outside the sequence through acquired learning.

but was never accepted by the representatives of the order of the Silver Law.

The Church even denounces them as: the knowledge of the devil - black witchcraft!

Not only is it strictly forbidden, but it also spares no effort to hunt down and kill practitioners.

It was at this time.

[Secret: Salman's Unspeakable Secret] solution density jumped from 40% to 66%.

Obviously, people have the heart to fight tigers, and tigers also hurt people, and before Byron offered "food", Salman was ready to take the first step against him!
