Chapter 212: Sixth Day (2)

(A/N: Chapter dedicated to LotusLin for the Magic Castle.)

[Basic Appraisal Skill Activated]

Long Haoran saw the properties and his attention were drawn to the familiar patterns badly carved. His fingers traced the lines.

Isn’t this from the bandages? Suddenly, he remembered how Xiao Hua was jumping in joy last night giggling over the blueprints. She did it?

How come only his brother gets to have one?

"Thank you." Long Haoran said unaware of his tone turning slightly weird. He quickly sent the gears to his brother. After a second, he received a message.

[Great Romantic Sage]: The two blueprints from last night! Are you the one who bought it? By the way brother, the stats granted by the gears were so awesome, but...the carving looks like chicken ribs. It reduces my cool image.

Long Haoran frowned.

[Dumpling Duke]: Return it to me.

Long Zurui was alarmed.

Why does he sense that his brother was angry? Or it’s just his misconception? Just as he was about to reply, his brother was no longer online.

Darn, I forget asking him about that loli from last night!

On the other side, Long Haoran was currently admiring his gears. Xiao Hua took another set, exclusively for him. So he also has one.

The corner of his lips upturned. If Long Haoran was a wolf, one could see a tail wagging behind him. "Thank you."

(A/N: How cute would that be? My heart is melting. XD)

After eating simple breakfast of congee, porky crocs noodles, and vegetable side dishes made by Aunt He and Aunt Qi, the combat units clamored towards the public bathhouse to take a serious bath and answer the calls of nature.

Whilst at it, they talked about the leather gears and each was eager to see it. Sadly, Aunt Su said that they would only be distributed in the afternoon by the landowner.

Most of the players right now didn’t have to such facility and have been complaining about their butts getting rashes from using leaves because of the lack of toilet papers.

While some did manage to build small toilets, the access to a portable water sources and digging a channel requires so much manpower.

"Hurry up and assemble." Elga waited on the entrance waving her axe like a flag and let everyone gather carrying their rations, copper quality gears and spare weapons.

After bidding everyone goodbyes, they marched out of the territory.

The Support Units continued with their task last night except for Rioli’s group. They were told to build a wide staircase to the wall for the units to step on, palisades, and wooden boxes for the traps.

Rioli divided his team into two groups.

Li Chunhua returned to the tailoring shop and carved on the rest of the gears and with her in there, the Aunties found themselves achieving 100% success rate. They all looked at the landowner with weird gazes, wondering if it was because of her.

"Aunties, how far are we?" Li Chunhua asked, noticing their stares.

Aunt Su and the other Aunt snapped out of their thoughts, "6 armors, 5 pairs of greaves and 6 pairs of bracers more." Last night, Aunt Su leveled up her tailor profession to Apprentice while Aunt He and the rest were halfway through. Because of these, their efficiency increased.

Long Haoran walked towards the back of the main residence, to collect [Colorful Myriad Eggs X4] and bumped into the Elf who was trimming on a familiar plant.

Long Haoran’s eyes changed. It’s the vegetable from the nightmare dungeon. It looks like they managed to get a hold of its seeds.

Siri sensed someone’s presence behind. "You’re here. That seed of yours has become a sapling and I replanted it beside the Azalea tree." Siri pointed to the newly build wooden fence where a small plants with four golden leaves stood.

"Except for the trees, the rest could be harvest. I’ll leave first. I’m going to concoct the mana recovery potions." Siri patted the dirt of his knee before standing up and leaving the place.

Long Haoran bent his knees and picked up the blue and red chumpets.

[You’ve got 56 units of Hoarfrost Chumpets-Second Class]

[You’ve got 45 units of Blood Karmic Chumpets-Second Class]

He also collected the others.

[You’ve got 10 kgs of Hoarfrost Wild Peanut- Second-Class]

[You’ve got 15 kgs pieces of Blood Karmic Golden Potato- Second-Class]

[You’ve got 5 kgs of Hoarfrost Snakeberries- First-Class]

[You’ve got 25 bundles of Blood Karmic Sanguine Leek- First-Class]

In the kitchen, Long Haoran busied himself cooking different desserts. The taste of the golden potato was between purple yam and sweet potato.

The taste of the berries was similar to the green grapes.

[Gourmet Experience +345]

[Blood Karmic Golden Potato Pancake with chopped Saguine Leeks (Grade: B) is now available on the picture book.]

[Blood Karmic Golden Potato Pie and Hoarfrost Peanut Crust Bars (Grade: B+) is now available on the picture book.]

[Blood Karmic Golden Potato Candy (Grade: C) is now available on the picture book.]

[Steamed Blood Karmic Golden Potato stuffed Hoarfrost Peanut Filling (Grade: B+) is now....]

[Pan-Fried Crispy Blood Karmic Sweet Potatoes (Grade: C) is now...]

(A/N: I’m feeling hungry. Pics in the comment section.)

Apart from these, the recipes of dumplings and rice balls from last night were added as well. Most of the buffs were increasing a particular stat and immunity for a certain amount of time. Some dishes also gave small permanent boost.

Long Haoran mass replicated the dishes and he garnered: [Pancake X167 pieces], [Candy X455 cubes], [Peanut Dumpling X134 pieces], [Small serving of Pan-fried X68], and [Crust Bars X345 cubes].

Even with the long distance of the Tailoring Shop from the main residence, Li Chunhua whose senses were ultra-sensitive picked up the smell and excused herself.

Long Haoran only felt the door pushed opened and wind the vibrated before he heard the familiar voice.

"Chef Long...how are you doing?" Li Chunhua called out softly while her eyes roamed over the desserts in the table, hoping she could taste just a little even just a single bite but what she got instead was a plate of each.

"Here. Eat it slowly." Long Haoran said before storing the rest.

Li Chunhua blinked at Chef Long who dragged two seats, pushed one of them gently towards her while he occupied the other, waiting for her to eat.

"It’s so lonely to eat alone. Let’s eat together." Li Chunhuan said and scooted right beside Chef Long, dividing the desserts equally between them.

Long Haoran looked at her with unknown gaze and accepted the offer.

Unfortunately, before they can even eat, some party crushers came in.

"Master, how cruel! You are eating alone?"

"Kya!"

"Ji ji ji!"

It seems like not only Li Chunhua’s nose had a food built-in detection device.

Several hours passed and noon came, Elga and the others returned to the territory and were immediately greeted by square pits.

One of the unfortunate fellow fell down.

"Ah!"

Elga and the others hurriedly went to help the man out.

Li Chunhua who was digging nearby for the traps heard the noise and jumped out of the pit and walked towards the crowd. "Be careful of the pits. Some already have stakes coated with poison."

Poison?

Elga and the others paled like paper and turned around to count the pits.

1...3...145....127...200?

So many?

Siri who was currently applying poison on the wood next to a pit, spotted them from afar and called Elga, "Come in, we’re going to start the practice battle."

Being called, the players including Elga carefully trudge on the path avoiding getting skewered.

Along the way, they saw the stakes with iron tip laced with black liquid inside 1.5 by 1 meters wooden box on the bottom of the holes and stiffened.

Li Chunhua also walked towards the entrance only to be blocked by the Elf.

"Master, we will be practicing without you."

"Why?" Li Chunhua was confused.

"Why are you asking why? With your crazy strength, how will the other have the chance to fight? Additionally, the traps and fortification will get destroyed if you joined."

"Then, what am I going to do?" Li Chunhua frowned. It’s not her fault that she’s strong.

Siri patted her shoulders, "Of course, lure some monsters. Master, be sure to lure about 20 of them first. then 30 and increased it by 10 at every 40 minutes interval."

Li Chunhua digested his words: Wait? So she becomes the bait? No way...

"Brother Siri, I have a better idea."

"What is it?" Siri was curious.

Li Chunhua grinned and whispered.
