Chapter 619: Chapter 608: Curry Master
Wen Wen stared at Moyadi for a while, then opened his mouth and said, "Illusion Master... If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have taken you for an acrobat."
Moyadi coughed lightly and then puffed out his chest, proudly saying, "Acrobatics, I do know a thing or two about that."
I wasn’t praising you, what on earth are you so proud of!
Wen Wen’s mouth opened and closed for a bit but ultimately he couldn’t think of what to say to mock Moyadi, so he just resignedly said to him, "Knowing acrobatics is great, very impressive... I hope you can use your acrobatics to sort this place out for me."
Moyadi said proudly, "Of course, I came here this time specifically to resolve the issues here for you."
After Moyadi’s explanation, Wen Wen gained some understanding of his abilities. Moyadi’s main ability was to impose illusions on people.
If the opponent was stronger than him, then his illusion techniques were just that, illusions, which could deceive the opponent’s senses, making them see false things.
If the opponent was weaker than him, then his illusions could potentially become reality at any moment, and being wounded within the illusion would also reflect onto the body.
He could also cast illusions on ordinary people on a large scale, which is why he had ridden his motorcycle all the way here without being noticed.
He and his team were constantly on the front line fighting against illusion-type monsters, just like those teams that specialized in dealing with ghosts.
Moyadi’s supporters quickly set up a small camp nearby, from which they would investigate the mysteries of this small town.
That’s right, the materials for the camp were also brought by motorcycle!
After waiting for a little while, they began testing the town, but the methods were somewhat incomprehensible to Wen Wen, with some engaging in completely meaningless bad dancing, others playing with spinning tops, and some meditating...
During this process, Wen Wen asked a few simple questions and confirmed that in the eyes of these supporters, they could only see the fake town.
If Wen Wen had not been very confident in himself, he would have even suspected that he was the one under the influence of the illusion.
Moyadi patted Wen Wen on the shoulder and said, "The basic testing will take some more time to complete. How about I make you some curry in the meantime?"
Then this self-proclaimed Illusion Master, without doing any investigation of the place, began cooking rice over a fire under Wen Wen’s astonished gaze.
Wen Wen didn’t know where to begin with his criticisms.
"You don’t seem to be in a hurry at all."
As he chopped vegetables, Moyadi said to Wen Wen, "Incidents in the realm of illusions often tend to be far more dangerous than facing monsters with real swords and guns!"
"I once had a partner who, in order to save a little girl held hostage by a monster, performed a taboo illusion technique. Not only did he fail to save the girl, but he also lost himself in his own illusions, becoming an idiot..."
"It’s dangerous, that’s true, but that sounds like a problem with your partner..."
Wen Wen still sat across from Moyadi, deciding to follow his arrangement. Every Ranger’s experience could be a legend in its own right.
Although Moyadi seemed unreliable, he was, after all, a master in the field of illusions. His experience in this area would certainly overwhelm Wen Wen’s, so following his lead was definitely the right choice.
Moyadi measured a tomato with a ruler, then cut it into precise eighths and said, "Just the information you provided me with is totally insufficient. We need to collect more data to ensure that we can resolve this event."
"After all, what we face is a powerful Containment Item that even the Disaster Upper Order got lost in, and it covers an area the size of a small town."
Watching Moyadi’s chopping actions, Wen Wen found himself somewhat looking forward to his dish.
In his memory, the culinary preparations in the Yingua District were all mushy, but seeing Moyadi cut all sorts of dishes with uniform size and thickness, there should be a chance to create something different.
While waiting for the dishes, Wen Wen saw one of Moyadi’s supporters drag in two prisoners in shackles.
Hmm... these two inmates were also brought over by motorcycle.
Wen Wen asked Moyadi, "What is this..."
Moyadi, while cutting the beef into small pieces, said, "On my way here, I requested death row inmates from a nearby prison. I want to use them to test out the Illusionary Realm of this small town."
"If we don’t figure this out, we’ll forever meddle with the Illusionary Realm inside, not to mention how to deal with this Containment Item. By the way, the beef was also bought near the prison."
"One of them knows this town is an Illusionary Realm, and the other is completely unaware of it. I will let them both enter the town and then come out separately, and decide on the next test based on their reactions."
Not long after Moyadi finished speaking, the test officially began.
The first death row inmate vanished within Wen Wen’s sight as soon as he entered the town.
Looking at the reactions of the supporters, it seemed like the inmate was still visible to them, so he must be inside that fake town.
A moment later, the inmate emerged from the town unscathed, even holding an apple in his hand. Wen Wen remembered there was a fruit stall at the entrance of the town.
After entering the range of the small town, the second inmate first disappeared into thin air, then reappeared in Wen Wen’s sight after a few seconds.
He appeared in the real small town just like Wen Wen had initially!
To the others, the inmate seemed to suddenly vanish after entering the town, and they had no clue where he was now.
Seeing the puzzled looks from everyone, the inmate realized they might not be able to see him and cheered wildly, running deeper into the town.
This was an opportunity of a lifetime for him; he could take this chance to escape from here!
But soon he realized that as he ran, he ended up back at the same camp he had left from—the one where a man with a beard was cooking!
Moyadi smiled and said, "This is just a small application of illusion techniques. In his eyes, he has escaped our clutches, but in reality, he found us himself. Since I brought him out, I can’t let him just run away."
Wen Wen stroked his chin, thinking Illusion Techniques were really quite handy. The Resentful Spirit girl he had caught from the Steamed Bun shop also knew illusions—perhaps he should consider cultivating it.
The supporters surrounded the two inmates, starting to question them about their experiences inside the town.
Wen Wen, who had been paying attention to the test, only then noticed that Moyadi’s dishes were nearly ready.
But contrary to Wen Wen’s expectations, the dishes Moyadi made were still mushy!
Wen Wen spoke in disbelief, "If you intended to make mush from the start, why did you bother cutting the ingredients so neatly and beautifully..."
Moyadi seriously said, "If the cutting isn’t perfect, how can you make the perfect curry? Here, have a taste."
Wen Wen took a serving of rice and curry that Moyadi handed over, frowning at the taste, but his eyebrows promptly relaxed.
This thing was damn delicious!
