Chapter 63: Decadent Life, Story Begins
Three days before the hunter assessment, all the girls broke through and successfully advanced to the star level.
Not only do they have a lifespan of 10000x10 years, but because of their realm master-level bloodlines, they naturally step into the realm level.
Nowadays, women can barely make ends meet even in this cruel universe.
In some remote star regions, one can even become a big figure who dominates a region.
At this point, Lin Yu no longer allowed them to stay in the original universe to accelerate their growth, nor did he give them initiation directly.
The higher the realm, the more difficult it is to increase the gene multiples, and the consumption will increase exponentially.
Although both of them have doubled their genes, the gap between the star level and the Lord of the Universe is so big that even the virtual universe will feel the pain.
At the stellar level, it has enough power to suppress the human world, and it is only the beginning of special life. It is the best time to increase the gene multiplier.
Of course, there is another aspect.
Lin Yu really can't bear it.
The time acceleration is a thousand times, and the consumption is so great that even an immortal would feel the pain.
It's okay for a short time, as the original universe clone absorbs a lot of the original energy of the universe and can still withstand it.
After a long time, it would be considered good if the clone of the original universe did not grow or degenerate.
Anyway, with a Realm Lord-level bloodline, it would naturally grow for a hundred years before it could easily reach the Universe level, so there would be no shortage of time.
The day before the hunter exam,
Early in the morning, Lin Yu was pulled out of bed by the women.
"Xiao Yu (A Yu, Yu Jun), wake up, it's time for us to leave."
"ha!"
Even though he is already a star-level powerhouse, Lin Yu still maintains the daily routine of an ordinary person.
Get up at dawn,
After breakfast, do some exercise and study the rules.
After lunch, I took a nap hugging the little Loli pillow, and then continued my morning work.
After dinner, take everyone to take a bath, and then do some multiple uses of flowers and fruits.
Finally, a lucky character is randomly selected to plug the gap. There is no need to leave. Just maintain the state and fall into a sweet sleep.
The next day was another boring day.
The simple and boring days were abruptly interrupted as the hunter assessment date approached.
At the dining table, Lin Yu was eating steamed dumplings, but his eyes couldn't stop twitching.
"Okay, okay, I'm scared of you."
He quickly finished his breakfast, took the hot towel brought by Feishazi, and wiped off the non-existent stains on his hands.
"I'm really scared of you. It's just a whale island. What's so good about it?"
Although he complained, Lin Yu quickly changed his clothes and took the girls on the journey to Whale Island.
Whale Island is named Whale Island because its shape resembles a whale.
The island has a complex terrain, with dense rainforests and unfathomable lakes, and is home to all kinds of rare and exotic animals.
Just got off the boat, haven't caught my breath yet,
"Xiaoyu and everyone, let's go fishing for the Swamp King, okay?"
A fishing rod appeared in his hand at some point and he was waving it with a rustling sound. Yuanzi blinked his big, dull eyes and made suggestions to everyone with great interest.
His eager look was just like a naughty kid who got a "peerless sword" and wanted to find a chrysanthemum field to test it out.
That's actually true.
After all, the fishing rod in Yuanzi's hand is not an ordinary item.
The pole itself is made of tungsten steel alloy, with some demon snake bones integrated into it. The material is far superior to ordinary metal, and even a demon snake cannot break it easily.
The fishing line is made of the tentacles and snake sticks of the devil snake. It is very tough and resistant to tension and wear.
The final fishhook is made from the fangs of a demon snake. It can not only easily penetrate flesh and blood, but also has maximum tensile and compressive resistance.
The whole set of equipment is enough to squeeze the demon snake to the bone marrow.
According to the craftsman who forged it, it was unknown what kind of giant fish this precious fishing gear was intended to catch, but he could assert that it could definitely catch whales with ease.
Holding the precious fishing gear that made his father envious to the point of tears, Yuanzi couldn't wait to show off his skills.
"Fishing, or swamp master."
Hunting, a word that can activate the wild blood in one's body.
The instinct engraved in their bones surged, and the women almost agreed unanimously.
A cunning look flashed across his eyes, and Yuanzi immediately struck while the iron was hot and told the content of the bet.
"For a bet, how about ten puffer whales?"
As a veteran with two and a half years of schooling, Suzuki Sonoko is confident that she can beat the group of novices in front of her.
"Just ten puffer whales, I agree."
"Me too."
As he was rich and powerful, the women didn't take the small bet seriously and agreed to it immediately.
"Okay, it's settled. Ayu, can you join us?"
Next to them, Lin Yu, who had been smiling as he watched a group of pretty young girls playing around, was also dragged into the gambling game.
"Okay, let's see who can catch the fish first."
Laughing and playing, as if on a spring outing, one man and eight women, obviously young men and women of wealth or nobility, showed no fear as they easily entered the ancient jungle that terrified all the island residents.
After walking for a few kilometers in the dense forest, a wide lake suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
Along the way, for the sake of fairness, no one took the initiative to sense the breath of creatures in the forest, but moved forward based on intuition.
"It's several kilometers long and wide. Judging from its size, this lake should be home to the king of the swamp."
Before we got closer, we realized they were not the first wave of tourists.
At the edge of the lake, under a big tree, there was a lush child holding a fishing rod, staring at the calm lake surface without blinking.
"Xiao Jie, it looks like this is the place."
"Eh!"
As if they had noticed something, several people stopped instantly.
"Here we go!"
On the grass, Xiao Jie shouted excitedly, immediately grabbed the fishing rod and pulled it up hard.
"..."
The huge force pulled the fishing line, causing the fishing rod to bend into a bow in an instant.
I don't know what material it is made of, but even though the fishing line and the fishing rod have made friction sounds under the heavy weight, they have never broken and are instead hooking onto something in the lake.
After a struggle and with the help of a big tree nearby, Xiao Jie successfully caught a strange fish that was about four or five meters long, with a red body and a densely packed belly with two rows of red and black lobster legs.
"I'm lucky. I happened to see Xiaojie hanging up the Swamp King."
Seeing Xiaojie holding up the Swamp King and running home in a hurry, no one wanted to approach him.
Although he occupies a large space in "Hunter x Hunter", the gap is too big and people are completely uninterested.
To restrain one's aura, it is instinct for those who possess crystal cores.
With a thought, one can store the soul and all breath into the crystal core, making it impossible for the outside world to detect the depth and reality.
Even though Xiaojie had a superhuman sense of smell and perception, he couldn't detect even a trace of the people even though they were not far behind him.
"Okay, let's get started."
Manifesting several fishing rods and handing them to everyone, Suzuki Sonoko rubbed her hands together, her face excited, as if she had already seen herself conquering everyone with her superb skills.
However, fishing is something that is difficult, assuming there is no cheating, and most of us are new to the technique, so the only difficulty is luck.
Unfortunately, there was such a destined girl among the group.
Almost as soon as the bait was put into the water, the Lord of the Swamp hung the hook with such a freshness.
"Well, I think I won."
On one side was the innocent Xiaolan, and on the other side was a lively and strange fish that was several times bigger than Xiaojie's. The girls couldn't help but twitch their eyelids.
Even Yuanzi's mouth twitched, and he wished he could slap himself a few times.
"Forget it, gambling with Xiaolan is just asking for trouble."
As best friends for many years, no one knows better than her how flawed Xiaolan's luck is.
As a second prize in a lottery, it is impossible to win the first prize. As for the Golden Flower, the chances of winning are either a leopard or a straight gold. But making her wait a few more seconds is an insult to the lucky darling.
"Wow…"
After losing the game, Sonoko had to turn her grief and anger into food, chewing the thing that caused her to lose miserably, in order to make up for some of her losses.
The king of the swamp may not taste as good as puffer whale, but it is also a rare delicacy.
The meat is relatively delicate and has a special sticky feeling, similar to Qingjiang fish, but has a richer texture than Qingjiang fish.
Especially when used for hot pot, the taste is simply an upgraded version of the combination of fish brain and sheep eye, which made Lin Yu praise it so much that he ate half of it by himself.
In addition, the girls found shrimps, crabs, mushrooms, fruits, wild vegetables, and honey from the lake and the ancient forest nearby.
Let Erina, the canary who has been protected in a cage since childhood, enjoy the fun of picnic and camping.
After finishing the meal, they cleaned up the traces and began to search the island for anything edible.
In addition to a large number of animals and plants, the group also discovered a fox bear that was more than two meters long and nearly three meters long.
If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the one that Xiaojie raised.
Because it had an owner, even though Lin Yu was curious about its taste, he did not touch it and instead let it live.
In the following time, the four people did not disturb the peaceful life of the residents on the island.
After touring the entire island and obtaining a large number of biological samples, they returned to the original universe villa.
Everyone does their job and deals with today's harvest.
Sow what you want to sow, classify what you want to classify, experiment what you want to experiment, and record what you want to record.
All samples were divided into two parts. One part was given to Yuanzi to upload to the Wanjie Mall as samples, and the other part was planted in a location selected in the original universe to see if they would be affected by the gourmet cells and evolve further in the future.
The species names, physiological data, and biological characteristics are recorded and uploaded to the virtual universe by Haibara Ai and Nico Robin.
Finally, it was up to Erina and Hisako to research how to cook or combine the various creatures to bring out their most delicious flavors.
Even on just one whale island, there are more than thousands of species of creatures included in the diet.
Knowing the existence of the panacea called gourmet cells, no one was too picky. Except for those species that were really eye-catching, most organisms were sampled.
After the trip, the harvest was quite rich. Even for a star-level expert, it took several hours to process all the harvest.
Among them, organizing information and trying flavors take up the most time.
Especially when tasting the food, Erina's small face, which was as big as a palm, wrinkled into a ball with bitterness.
All kinds of strange and bizarre flavors pass through the tongue of God.
Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty are the five flavors of life.
Salty is okay, the saltiest thing is table salt.
The other four flavors are really fatal.
After some attempts, Erina even felt that the tongue in her mouth was no longer her own.
Instantly, almost everyone said madly in unison:
"No, we have to recruit people quickly to handle these chores."
