Chapter 672: The main ingredient for making bracken cakes
Everyone was slightly excited when they heard that they could go to Lundberg Mansion.
Darkness said quickly, "Maybe there are some clues to stop Walavi. Xiaolin, let's go and take a look!"
"Oh, right! Ribbons! Maybe my ribbons are there?! Go find them, Kobayashi!" Aqua also urged him.
Xiao Lin rolled his eyes angrily.
"You, you forgot about your ribbon before, right? Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't have a ribbon, right?"
"What are you talking about! Without that, I would lose my dignity as a goddess! It's very important!"
“I feel like there is no difference now than before…”
Although she said so, it really doesn't feel any different. After all, Aqua's ribbons are not always visible. She only shows them when she wants to prove that she is a goddess.
If that's the case, forget it.
But every time Aqua claims that she is a goddess, she is never recognized, so it really makes no difference whether she is a goddess or not.
Darkness then spoke up again: “The guild’s judgment is also very hasty. I don’t know what kind of damage will happen in the future. It’s better to deal with it as soon as possible.”
"Yes."
Xiaolin sighed slightly.
The current dilemma is that the guild ignores it, and the adventurers have no sense of crisis. But Xiaolin cannot tell the origin of the slime, otherwise Sena will have to arrest him again.
If he is arrested, who can stop Slime Walavi?
He still has to clean up his own mess.
Then they came to Uncle Lundberg's house, where almost nothing had been moved. According to Senna, this was an important evidence site and could not be destroyed at will. Thanks to this, everyone was not unable to find any information about Slime Walavi because all the things were taken away.
But not before that.
"No! Not here either! Absolutely not! Where did that guy take my streamer?!"
Aqua rummaged around the room.
Her tone became more agitated the more she flipped through the papers, and in the end, she seemed to be throwing everything around, making it difficult for others to find clues.
"Calm down a bit."
Xiaolin stopped what he was doing and said, "Did you sew it back on the rag?"
"I can't forgive him for doing such a despicable thing! Okay, Xiaolin will also help us look for it and turn the furniture over!"
She gave orders to Xiaolin in a crying voice.
"I'm not here to look for streamers!"
Having said that, I still helped her turn over the furniture scattered on the floor, but unfortunately I didn't see Aqua's ribbon.
Maybe Aqua's actions were too rough and Sena couldn't bear it anymore.
She walked over and said to the two of them, "Let's just say there is a condition for restoring the original state. I'll ask you to restore the places that have been found to their original state."
"Hey, Useless Goddess, did you hear that? You've turned upside down, so you should be able to return to your original state, right?" Kobayashi looked at Aqua who looked anxious.
"...Please, please."
Sena left after saying this.
“Haha, really…”
Xiao Lin sighed helplessly, then turned to his companions and asked, "Darkness, have you found any useful clues?"
"No... not yet."
She answered loudly.
It seems that it is not that easy to find.
Xiao Lin has used his eyes to search carefully, but unfortunately, looking more does not mean that he will find it.
It seems like I need to waste some time.
At this moment, Huihui suddenly shouted at him: "Xiaolin! What is this? There are some words written on it that I have some impression of, but I can't understand them at all..."
She held aloft a notebook.
It looks quite old, with a purple cover and looks quite luxurious.
Can’t understand the text?
I have a bad feeling...
"let me see."
Kobayashi took the notebook from Huihui.
After opening it, it was just as I imagined, a very old notebook, but it was well maintained and the text on it was not missing.
"Let me see... On October X, a noble asked me to do a great research. He said anything was fine, which made me feel awkward. The noble said, 'As long as it's great, I can do anything' and prepared a lot of money for me, so I want to just do it for now and live a carefree life here."
what happened?
This narrative style seems strangely familiar?
It's not good, it's really not good.
Kobayashi's alarm bells were ringing. His premonition told him that if he continued watching, something bad might really happen, but there was no way out now.
Must see!
"X month 0 day, it was awesome! No worries about food and drink, everything I wanted was awesome. I was about to ask about the research results, so I just made something. Smoke came out when I pressed the button. I just said, 'It's too dangerous, please don't touch it.' He said, 'Great, really great...' or something like that. It was so easy to fool him."
Hey, hey, hey, this is such a useless statement, this is not...!
"On Y month, Z day, if it was just a smoking machine, it would be troublesome to ask a lot of questions, so I just casually said, 'This is a level-consuming curse, it's dangerous to touch.' I think that's enough. On Z month, Y day, ah, living a carefree life but still feeling dissatisfied, I want to eat that, I want to eat it so much. Ah, the one I often eat in Liben, the bracken cake."
It's you indeed!
Since it was the bald old man from the Red Demon Clan, then doesn’t that mean the reason why Slime Valavi was created was…
"Xiao Lin? Xiao Lin! What's wrong with you? Why did you stop so suddenly? What's written next? Read it quickly!"
"You're really slow, let me see!"
“Don’t, don’t grab it, stupid Aqua!”
The stupid goddess impatiently snatched the notebook from his hand, and then began to read. After all, she was once the goddess in charge of the Liben area, so she also recognized the characters there.
"Before, I asked him if he had similar food and tried to order one, but I got something completely different. I said it was a translucent, soft, cool dessert sprinkled with bean powder and dipped in honey. But he brought something that looked like a piece of slime with sauce on it. Are you kidding me!"
After reading it, Aqua raised her head.
There was a clear stupidity in her water-blue eyes, and she seemed confused and wondered if she had read it wrong.
"... Warabimochi?"
"It's okay, just continue reading."
Kobayashi covered his cheeks, signaling Aqua not to take it too seriously and continue reading.
Aqua nodded.
"Q month W day. Ah, I want to eat it. I want to eat bracken cake so much! The taste I miss, bracken cake. Soft and bouncy, I want to eat it so badly! I want to eat it so much that I'm going crazy! If it doesn't exist in this world, can't I just make it myself? So, the development of a way to eat bracken cake at any time began. I put a lot of enthusiasm into this research, and I would be very excited as long as I could eat unlimited bracken cake at any time... Kobayashi, if I could eat bracken cake, I would also be very..."
"Shut up and keep reading."
"...Xiao Lin, you are a bully!"
Never give Aqua any sweetness. This stupid goddess will shine as long as she is given a little sunshine, and she always makes some requests that give people a headache.
"On W month Q day, I was so focused on developing it that the nobles were frightened. How funny. I was clearly making bracken cakes."
"On V month M day, it's done. The bracken cake has the ability to increase in value and evolve, and it will regenerate repeatedly when eaten. In order to make it increase automatically, it will be more efficient to make it an autonomous organism. It will also increase if left alone. Therefore, I combined the genes of the plant closest to bracken in the world with edible slime, and the result was very successful."
Hey Hey hey……
That guy is really amazing, to be able to go to such lengths just to eat bracken cakes.
"Magical creature Brackencake."
Aqua blinked and wanted to say something but continued reading when Kobayashi rolled his eyes at her: "Calm down and think about it. What is this? But it's great that you can eat it as you like! Just be perfunctory with the nobles and say that this thing is the Ultimate Magic Creature Walavi."
What a bad premonition.
This is already a very bad premonition.
"Oh no. It's an unexpected increase. I can't finish it. To be honest, I'm tired of it. Even the most favorite food will get boring after a while. Since there's no way to deal with it, let's seal it up. It will increase infinitely, and maybe one day it will cover the whole world. It's very likely. It's not good! So, seal this guy up. Thank you for the hospitality."
Aqua put down the notebook in her hand.
Not only her, but also Krillin, Darkness and Huihui were speechless about this guy.
"Every time, every time...it's always your fault!"
he roared loudly.
Darkness only heard the key words.
"It can multiply infinitely until it covers the entire world. What should we do, Xiaolin? It will bring disaster to the world!"
"The ultimate magical creature Walavi that can cover the entire world... So cool! I say, Xiaolin, let's cultivate it!"
Likewise, Huihui only heard the key words.
Seriously, how is it possible to raise something like this? Are we supposed to treat it as emergency food? What a joke!
"Xiaolin, I'm already starting to get scared."
"Don't be afraid, you are a goddess!"
Kobayashi rolled his eyes at the stupid goddess, telling her to muster up the courage to really not even think about it, as her first reaction when encountering a strong enemy was to run away.
"never mind."
Sighed.
“Anyway, let’s talk to Wiz and Vanir first. Maybe they know something…”
The main purpose is to find something that can curb the continuous proliferation of Slime Valavi. Wiz's magic item shop may have such a thing.
Come to the magic tool shop.
open the door.
"You're here for the good of you. You poor adventurers who have been investigating so hard but can't get any relevant information and are overwhelmed by the feeling of futility!"
"The prefix is too long."
Xiaolin rolled his eyes.
It seems that even if I don't tell him, Vanir knows what happened. I might as well not investigate anymore and just ask him for the answer directly... No, this guy's asking price is very high, so forget it.
Wiz also felt a little regretful.
"I haven't found a way to deal with Walavi... Everyone must be tired, let's take it slow, how about a cup of tea?"
"Thank you, Wiz."
"You are welcome."
The careful Lich Lady went to prepare refreshments, while Xiaolin and his companions sat down in the magic item shop.
At the same time he complained slightly.
"Really? What should I do? I don't know where Rafe went after that..."
"An adventurer with nowhere to go but grumbling. It's low-stimulation, but it's a very good negative emotion when you think about it!"
Vanir taunted him, looking very happy at the same time.
Aqua complained loudly, "I can't find the ribbon either... It's really annoying. After all, there's only one and there's no way to replace it! Hey, Wiz, this tea is just water?!"
“I’m sorry, Lady Aqua…”
The Lich Queen quickly apologized.
It was her fingers that accidentally touched the tea, causing it to turn into pure water, but she blamed Wiz for it.
“You, there’s no point in taking your anger out on Wiz.”
"Humph~"
Idiot Aqua turned her head away from him.
Vanir laughed loudly and said, "Hahahaha, this is quite enjoyable. The team is filled with negative emotions due to the failure to achieve the goal. This tastes quite good!"
"Hey!"
"Well, this is just a piece of cake for me, but I'll still give you some corresponding tips."
"Really?!"
"Big hint - Big Tree Maze! Stumble forward to the deepest part of the Big Tree Maze!"
Barnil told them so.
Hui Hui was slightly stunned and asked, "A tree maze?"
“I see. We won’t have to worry about not finding a place to hide.” Darkness agreed after thinking about it.
Big tree maze.
As the name suggests, it is a maze composed of large trees. The old trees are so intricately tangled that it is almost like a dense forest.
Trying to find someone there is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
It's just too difficult.
then--
Xiao Lin looked at the grinning demon and asked, "I say, Barnil, with your foresight, can't you see that area? What is Rafe doing hiding there?"
"Oh my, it's unexpected that someone who has the same ability to foresee the future would ask this question!"
"My level has dropped, and I can't use the foresight ability anymore!"
"Hahahaha, I know! But this information is already a great benefit. If you want more information, do you need to pay a corresponding price?"
You see, I knew it.
Vanir is a devil, and he is the one who carried out the deal. If you don't buy something from him, how can you possibly tell us the information honestly?
Xiao Lin didn't say anything, but his eyes told him to put forward conditions.
"For example, buy out all the products that our store is proud of, including the shelves. A few days ago, the owner of the store didn't listen to my advice and bought a lot of unnecessary things."
"How could that be! I'm sure it will sell very well, and by winter it will definitely..."
Wiz believes in himself very much.
Hui Hui asked curiously, “What did you buy?”
"Permanent hand warmer!" Wiz said excitedly, "As long as you wear it, you will always be warm!"
"Isn't it great? Wouldn't it be convenient to have such a tool when going to the snowfield or iceberg? Then I'll buy one and try it out."
“Wait a minute, Megumin. This is something Wiz bought. How can it be so convenient?”
Xiaolin stopped her.
"Indeed, it could become a treasure! This item is actually an excellent product that will burn to death once it is equipped! There seems to be a case where the user's clothes were burned and turned into a fireball. What do you think?"
"no need!"
How can I buy it under such circumstances?
