Chapter 799: Chapter 64 Jack’s Message

"Ah, hiss, where did your minds go?" Alcmene blinked innocently and said, "You wouldn’t think I made food with Marsh Stalkers as the ingredient, hiss, how could that be? Those things covered in flesh bumps and all sticky, I couldn’t possibly use them as ingredients."

"Ugh," Freya was the first who couldn’t bear it, the young girl who had lived a life of luxury and had the least experience with adventures simply couldn’t stand against the High Priest with such bad taste. Alcmene’s last description was like a final blow, making her retch uncontrollably, she didn’t even have a chance to protest because she dared not open her mouth, feeling that if she did, even this morning’s breakfast would spray out. As for the other young girls, although they had seen many disgusting things in their adventures and had much higher resistance than Freya, they had never imagined what it would feel like to put those nasty things in their mouths, so they too covered their mouths with pale faces, fully understanding Pannis’s previous evaluation of Alcmene. For the High Priest who has been trapped in the swamp for over a hundred years, maybe her greatest pleasure was observing the wry expressions of her victims after a practical joke. However, Lina’s reaction was quite unexpected to the others, the silver-haired priestess, although also quite nauseated, covered her mouth with her hand, but strangely enough, there was a clear blush on her pale face, one couldn’t help but wonder what inappropriate thing she had seen, triggering her memory.

Of course, the most normal was Pannis. He just sighed deeply, pressing his forehead as he felt his head swelling, almost as if it had grown larger. Pannis rubbed his head and said weakly, "They can’t withstand such treatment from you, Alcmene, please restrain yourself a bit. You girls don’t listen to her nonsense. This is indeed the ingredient we brought, just the Swamp Python, remember the Swamp Skull Tribe gave us several pieces after hunting it, which she took to use. Um, what she said in a way wasn’t wrong, we indeed watched the hunting battle for a long time and remember what happened afterward quite well. Come on, don’t look so troubled, this is made from the tender meat closest to the spine of the Swamp Python, it tastes not only free of the swamp creatures’ common muddy smell but is also delicious and can increase resistance to most of the swamp’s poisons for a time, making it one of the best foods in the Whispering Swamp, so don’t be scared by her, go ahead and eat it, it’s fine."

Catherine looked at the half bowl of python meat soup left in front of her and shook her head with a wry smile. Clearly, even after Pannis’s explanation, it was unlikely that the girls would have the appetite to continue eating, even the always hungry Freya put down her soup spoon, deciding not to touch the python meat soup anymore. Seeing the girls’ troubled expressions, Alcmene’s vertical pupils narrowed into slits, and she said with a laugh, "Alright, alright, hiss, I won’t tease you anymore. Marsh Stalker meat isn’t tasty, rest assured."

"Who says so, I find it quite delicious," Jack, who had been busily eating out of his own food bowl, suddenly looked up, his mouth stuffed with food, he mumbled unclearly, "I’ve eaten quite a lot, the meat is smooth and delicate, and it gives a tingling sensation when you eat it. And that food is the best, every time you eat half, it grows back by itself, so you never worry about eating them into extinction, you can eat to your heart’s content. It’s a pity they only appear in the Southern Marshes, you won’t get a chance to taste them."

"Actually, we just killed three not long ago," Pannis said. "Right nearby, and we’ve been talking about it all this time, how could you not know?"

"I wasn’t listening," The biggest advantage of a hydra eating is that it can use eight heads to eat at the same time, using the remaining one to talk, which doesn’t interfere with eating or conversing—a feat other races could never achieve. Jack was doing just that, his eight heads buried in the food bowl, the one head that was lifted covered in meat soup: "What you were talking about was too boring; I couldn’t be bothered to listen. I came to eat with Alcmene, not to hear you talk business. But what did you just say? You killed three Marsh Stalkers nearby? Impossible, I’ve never heard of Lurkers leaving the Southern Marshes."

"So, we suspect someone has been meddling behind the scenes," Pannis said. "Perhaps someone brought them here."

"Oh, now I get it," Jack said, utterly uninterested as he lowered his head back to his food, then murmured offhandedly, "I was wondering what those guys were doing, wandering around my territory back then. Turns out they were looking for those Lurkers. What a shame, such delicious food they found, and they didn’t even eat it."

"Hmm?" Although the hydra just mentioned it casually and didn’t care, everyone, including Alcmene and her daughter, turned their gaze to it at the same time. Since Graneer had once mentioned that Alcmene had created a barrier in the swamp, Pannis had even specifically discussed with Alcmene how the moribund slipped past the barrier into the Southern Marshes to modify the Lurkers. Initially, Pannis thought the barrier was only effective against the Undead and couldn’t detect the moribund, but according to Alcmene, the barrier targeted the Energy of Death and was not specifically aimed at the Undead. Therefore, for this critical issue, the group had yet to find an answer. No one expected Jack, the hydra that had been feigning death on the ground, to utter such a statement, which meant it had witnessed everything the others had done. Pannis probed, "Can you clarify what you mean? Exactly who did you encounter, and what were they doing?"

"Can’t, I need to eat," Jack buried his head in the food, completely ignoring Pannis’s question. "And I’ve forgotten already, it’s got nothing to do with me, why should I remember."

"Jack, sss, this is very important to us," Alcmene coaxed like one would a child. "If you want to eat, I’ll make you something delicious every day for the next few days, sss. Can you please try hard to remember now?"

"Oh," Jack responded to Alcmene and Pannis with a completely different attitude, obediently lifting his head. The several heads huddled together, eyes looking at each other, seriously recalling for a while before it said, "Still can’t remember."

"Sigh," Alcmene let out a sigh and asked, "Then tell me, how did you discover those people?"

"A demigod accompanied by several of Legendary Rank, walking around the territory I share with another of my race," Jack’s heads continued to playfully bite each other, with only one head seriously answering, "How could I possibly not notice them."
