Chapter 163: Looting the Boss Lair (1)

After thirty minutes had passed in the living room, Li Chunhua couldn’t suppress herself from exclaiming because the table was full of food. "So many!"

Bowls and plates full of youtiao, steamed stuffed dumplings, congee, hot and dry noodles, jianbing, bacon omelet with leeks, and wontons were spread on the table.

Long Haoran placed a bowl, a spoon, and a pair of bamboo chopsticks for her.

(Pics in comment section.)

"Eat." He spoke, pushing the dishes near her before taking the seat opposite her.

"Thanks for the food." Chef Long must have spent a long time in the kitchen to cook so many portions. Li Chunhua licked the corner of her lips.

Li Chunhua first went to taste the youtiao and moaned after the first bite. The memories of her master came to her mind. He used to bring these to her every morning, and they were paired with soy milk.

"There is no butter. Otherwise, it would taste better." Long Haoran spoke and sat opposite before taking out a large bowl and the [Sarape Wheat] and carefully separating the kernels from the head and transferring them inside the bowl.

He had been cooking since 5 a.m. and his inventory was full of them even after those three gluttons ate a lot.

Normally he would only cook fixed portions, but somehow his hands cooked on its own and he earned 500 gourmet points.

If he cooks more tonight, his class will reach Level 10 and will obtain additional skill.

"No, it’s good already." Li Chunhua quickly finished three youtiaos in one sitting and grabbed the ladle of the congee.

One sip will warm her stomach and moisten her rapping-parched throat, and it is all she needs to know that the rest of the meals will be good as well. "Chef Long, you’re always the best. How about becoming an official resident? I promised your benefits would increase."

Li Chunhua only said it as a compliment and didn’t expect the man to answer her.

"Alright." Long Haoran’s hands that were pulling the kernels stopped for a second before they resumed.

The sounds of choking could be heard.

(⊙ˍ⊙)

Li Chunhua swallowed the bacon first before exclaiming, "Are you serious?"

"Yes."

The dumpling who formally tied the cook laughed inside and didn’t waste a moment to throw him an invitation. First step is done. Next step is increasing the debt.

[Player Baozi is inviting you to join the Salted Fish Territory as an official resident. Does the player agree?]

[Please take note that if you agree, you will be revoked of the right to have a territory of your own. Your current territory will vanish, and you will be under Player Baozi’s jurisdiction.]

If it were the past Long Haoran wouldn’t agree when faced with such choices, but the Long Haoran now merely glided his eyes over the consequences of his choices and tapped on the ’yes’ option.

In the forest near where the bull-smashing event occurred, a group of people were currently monitoring a territory after seeing the growing crops on the farm.

Suddenly, a white fog emerged and enveloped the whole territory. The players were terrified and hid. After ten seconds, when they sensed no danger and inspected the territory, but they couldn’t find it anymore.

"Where is it?"

---

The appearance of Long Haoran’s name among her population residents filled her with joy, and she silently spied on his information. When she saw his class was empty, her mind had a question mark because it was blank.

Chef Long didn’t have his class yet?

But it wasn’t her place to be nosy. Never mind. Even if Chef Long didn’t have a class, she’s going to protect him all her life!

[Congratulations for becoming an official resident of the Salted Fish Territory!]

[Because your territory ranked first in the weekly disaster event and you’re an official resident, you will be granted an additional 5% boost in stats.]

Is there such a thing?

Long Haoran’s eyes were glued to the last information, and he checked his personal status interface, and when he saw the added stats, he was surprised.

Li Chunhua spent five minutes eating all the dishes before muttering a dirt-dispelling spell to clean them. Long Haoran and she gathered the plates and bowls, planning to wash them later before they returned to the living room.

Because she fainted yesterday, she hadn’t had the chance to eat the dessert Chef Long made. She took it out and the perfectly preserved bowl of [Shaved Ice Dessert (Mix-Mix)].

Long Haoran saw the dessert and couldn’t help but comment. "It tastes better if you mix it."

Li Chunhua’s eyes lit up, and she followed his words. She stirred the crushed ice soaked in milk and chocolate until it was blended well and dug her spoon before tasting.

The sweetness and different texture made her love it instantly, and before a minute passed, the bowl was empty.

Long Haoran then took out a bowl from his inventory.

[Cold-Brewed Tieguanyin]

Her throat, tired from all that rapping, was soothed by the tea.

This is called life.

Li Chunhu leaned on her chair and relaxed.

----

"What are you doing, Chef Long?" Li Chunhua rested her chin on her hand.

[Sarape Wheat (Kernel)]

"Mill it to make flour. We can plant them too. Soft wheat has more starch and less gluten and can be made into cakes, pastries, desserts, noodles, dumpling wrappers, and many more." Long Haoran talked more than usual, and he wasn’t even aware of it. Long Zurui won’t even receive this kind of treatment.

Li Chunhua’s interest was caught and offered. "Let me help you!"

"We can’t right now. We need a milling machine or quern," Long Haoran said. Rape seed will also need such things if he wants to extract oil.

"How do you make a quern?" Li Chunhua asked.

Long Haoran remembered the quern he had at home. "First, we need granite..." He didn’t even need to finish his words.

Li Chunhua took out the units of granite on the table. "I have them."

Long Haoran blinks. Where did she get this? From the quarry?

<@_@>

But even if they have granite...

"We don’t have the equipment to cut it..." Long Haoran once again couldn’t finish his sentence.

"I do! Just state your proportions. I will cut them." Li Chunhua grabbed the granite.

She has a diamond cutter? Where did she get it? Could it be from the secret realm?

Long Haoran responded and said the parts of the quern or milling stone.

Li Chunhua listened attentively and went to cut the granite based on his words, making Long Haoran stare blankly. Just after a minute, two circular granite stones with polished edges were pushed towards him.

"You forget the hole in the middle." Long Haoran stammered in disbelief.

"Oh." Li Chunhua grabbed one of the stones and poked her finger until there was enough room for the kernel to go through.

Watching her dig her finger as if the granite was a soft mud or clay dough so effortlessly made Long Haoran raise his finger and poke, but it couldn’t even advance a centimeter.

(._.)

The reality stung him.

Just when is he able to do that?

---

After making the mill, Li Chunhua only remembered that the house was quiet. "Where is Brother Siri?"

"He went on a trip. The fox and my native too are helping the other players level up. The radish is in the garden, talking to the plants." Long Haoran said and cleaned the table.

So they are busy. It can be helped. The number of residents was still too small, which made her remember the three maps.

She took them out and spread them on the table.

The hand-drawn map was marked in animal hide, providing safe routes towards lairs.

[Queen’s Bloodsucking Mosquito’s Lair]

[Ice-Mutant Silver-Back Raptor’s Lair]

[Friendly Emperor Yeti’s Lair]

One of the precious loots from killing the boss was the map because of the boss’ lairs.

Without a map, you will need to be on the constant lookout for traps, dangerous terrain, and guarding monsters, and if you’re not careful enough, you will lose your life.

But with a map, the journey will be easier.

"Chef Long, how about going on a shopping trip?" Li Chunhua asked her new resident.

Boss lairs are rich in resources. It is the reason for their strength. Recalling the ice-shaved dessert, Li Chunhua was even more determined. She must take more ice or bring home an automatic ice-making machine!

( ﾉ ﾟｰﾟ)ﾉ Yosh!

Long Haoran tossed the map a glance, and after scrutinizing the marks, he agreed.
