"Damn it!"
Reluctantly!
Makabaka could only abandon his sword!
But Makabaka knew how powerful his strike was. Wolf Slaughter, having taken this blow, was basically out of the fight!
"Only the two of you left, watch me deal with you slowly!"
Wolf Slaughter chuckled grimly, "Without that sword, your speed in cutting threads will probably slow down considerably, right?"
"So what?"
"How long can you last by calling upon the power of appetite?"
"Today, I will eliminate you nuisances for the Cloud Country!"
A faint, charming laugh echoed.
"Little brother who can fly, you must have forgotten about this concubine."
Makabaka was shocked! Big Wind Novel Network
It was that woman!
Last time, it was her who had gravely wounded him with unknown means!
Makabaka leaped into the sky, but these threads bound him tighter and tighter.
He hadn't risen high when Flower-Faced Tiger delivered a fierce tiger-pounces-on-a-ball strike, embedding Makabaka into the ground again.
Beast had been waiting for a long time!
He held Makabaka tightly from behind!
"Seeking death!"
Makabaka struck Beast's arms with his elbows, bone-cracking sounds echoing, but those arms were like iron clamps, unmoving.
"Little brother~ Look at your concubine~"
At some point, Qingcheng had appeared before Makabaka.
The veil on her face had vanished.
"No!!!!"
……………………
Allied Camp.
The Human Skin Doll met with Zhang Wei.
"Sir, I have not failed my mission."
Zhang Wei looked at the white gourd and let out a deep sigh.
"After planning for so many days, the Phoenix Koi is finally in hand. How many are there?"
"About a dozen or so. Besides the Phoenix Koi, I also selected some other good-looking ingredients and brought them back. I don't know much about ingredients, nor their specific quality."
"It's fine, bringing back the Phoenix Koi is already a great help to me."
"Sir, please don't say that. It's all my duty."
Entering the main tent.
The Human Skin Doll held the gourd, and countless ingredients sprayed out from its mouth, landing steadily on the ground without a single scratch or bump.
"Sir, your gourd."
"You've used this thing very skillfully, keep it for yourself. Consider it a reward for this achievement."
The Human Skin Doll was stunned, then exclaimed in surprise, "Do you truly mean it?"
Spatial equipment was extremely precious.
Even those in the top ten of the Black List had not heard of anyone possessing such an item.
Moreover, the white gourd had a capacity of several hundred cubic meters, more than ten times that of a Haru backpack, making it a top-tier item among spatial equipment.
If auctioned, it could fetch at least five hundred million Berries.
The Human Skin Doll naturally loved the gourd, but still hesitated and politely declined.
"Gathering intelligence is my duty, and besides, I already owe you too much, Sir. If I accept this gourd... I will be uneasy."
"Consider it a gift between friends."
Zhang Wei smiled, "Between friends, there's no such thing as owing. Perhaps when I'm down and out in the future, I'll need you to take me in. You can't refuse then."
Such a hypothetical situation was impossible!
The Human Skin Doll was speechless and could only look at Zhang Wei with gratitude before accepting the gourd.
After seeing the Human Skin Doll out.
Zhang Wei rubbed his hands with a hint of excitement.
"Top-tier ingredients comparable to the Fade-to-Mortal Immortal Palace, this is truly exciting!"
[Discoverable Ingredient Found: Dark Tentacle Monster]
[Capture Level: 44]
[Type: Extremely Special Ingredient.]
"Extremely special ingredient?"
"Could it be a specially processed ingredient from the original work?"
"I remember storing one before, it was a soup pot spirit gifted to me by Old Man Jun."
Zhang Wei continued to read.
[Origin: Realm of Illusory Dreams]
[Realm of Illusory Dreams Introduction: A realm existing between existence and non-existence, intelligent beings have a very small chance of reaching it during their slumber.]
[The Realm of Illusory Dreams is bizarre and unpredictable, with both dangers and opportunities. Consuming food there will replenish the body's nutrition. Dying there will inflict the same damage to the body.]
[Dark Tentacle Monster Introduction: A monster born of desire, usually appearing in the dreams of lecherous old men.]
[Note: Prey captured in the Realm of Illusory Dreams has a small chance of being brought back to the real world.]
————————
Looking at the crystal box before him, Zhang Wei shouted, "Awesome!"
"Isn't this like having a wet dream and bringing back the item?"
"The key is that this item is actually level 44!"
"From a probabilistic standpoint, this is truly rare in the world! Extremely rare!"
Realistically.
How many people in this world can capture a level 44 ingredient?
And what's the probability of entering the Realm of Illusory Dreams?
The most crucial point is that the dreamer needs to be a lecherous old man!
There are tens of billions of people on Earth, but only one percent have awakened Gourmet Cells, and even fewer can reach level 44 or above!
The ingredient in the crystal box looked like a mass of black mist, leaving traces like an octopus washing dishes as it crawled…
"Dark Tentacle Monster... But how do you even eat this thing?"
"Extremely special ingredient, it must have a specialized preparation method."
He stored it in the Treasure Hall.
Zhang Wei decided not to act rashly.
After all, this might be the last time he ever encountered such a thing.
Where would he find a dreaming lecherous old man next time he wanted to capture one?
Even if he did, who would admit to such a thing!
[Discoverable Ingredient Found: Phoenix Koi]
[Capture Level: 28]
[Introduction: Treasure of the Sea of Clouds, its fins resemble a phoenix's tail, and its scales are golden-red. Each time it leaps from the water, it shimmers with iridescent colors. Phoenix Koi is extremely nutritious, greatly supplements vital energy, and can effectively repair damage to all organs and mend cracks in Gourmet Cells.]
A quick count.
There were fourteen of them.
"I'll deal with them all today. Anything not used immediately will be stored in the right annex."
[Storage Complete!]
[Replication Time: 160 days]
[Storage Complete]
[Replication Time: 149 days]
…………
……
After fourteen storage operations, the replication time successfully decreased to 29 days.
"Mend cracks in Gourmet Cells?"
"What are cracks in Gourmet Cells?"
Recalling the original manga.
It seemed that damage caused by Appetite Demons would damage the genetic code of Gourmet Cells, making it permanently unhealable.
Similar to Zebra's mouth, which could never be healed.
Some original characters had permanent scars for the same reason.
"So, tearing Gourmet Cells is the effective method against opponents with high regeneration. This kind of damage is to reduce the enemy's maximum HP!"
Harming ten fingers is not as good as breaking one!
The atmosphere instantly became more enthusiastic.
"So the effect of the Phoenix Koi is to repair damage to Gourmet Cell encoding. It's not just simple wound healing; it's equivalent to restoring maximum HP!"
"God-tier ingredient!"
"With such a powerful effect, its capture level is only 28. No wonder it's becoming extinct so quickly!"
