Gentleman's Night Canteen

It's a pity that after testing, it was found that as long as this thing is not hit by the dragon gun, the ordinary city defense crossbow can't penetrate it in the state of 'demon armor'.

But there are advantages and disadvantages. The defensive effect of this thing depends entirely on the energy input. If you can't get enough energy, it is no different from an ordinary round shield.

It's just a pity that everyone didn't figure out how this thing was used as a kitchen utensil until everyone left.

Although some people have asked whether it will be used to cut stick bones and the like, it is like a bone cutter.

However, the sharpness is not enough without activating the 'Devil Armor', but after activating the 'Devil Armor', the edge will have a certain curvature like a devil's scales, which is a bit delicate to use as a saw, let alone a The kitchen knife is gone.

But at this moment, a somewhat hoarse voice suddenly emerged from the crowd.

"By the way... Although this thing has a certain cutting and lethality, it is still a shield in essence, right? So could it just be buckled? For example... a chopping board?"

While talking, the other party put the shield on the table, and at the same time pulled out the knife he usually used to decompose the material and scratched the shield twice.

Immediately, everyone's eyes lit up, and Lan Meng decisively summoned a kitchen knife to try it out. It seemed... pretty good?

Not only that, Lan Meng suddenly remembered another function of the shield.

"Who has water?"

"Is wine okay?"

"Can!!"

Lan Meng, who took a bottle of beer from a hunter, poured it directly on the shield, and then a miraculous scene appeared, and the wine poured on it was quickly absorbed by it.

Apparently a shield with the demonic 'bloodthirsty' trait can absorb more than just blood.

It can be carried with you, can quickly grow in size when used, and it is hard enough, and even has self-healing ability.

As a chopping board, it is qualified, not to mention that it has the function of absorbing liquids such as blood and juice to keep itself and the ingredients dry.

This chopping board is more convenient than imagined!

Although Lan Meng's rationality told him that the "magic tools" were weapons transformed by demons, there should be no demons dying to turn themselves into a chopping board. As for whether the other party was originally a chopping board?

It's not important anymore.

For Blue Dream, it is a chopping board!

Everyone, including Lan Meng, cheered for revealing the mystery. As for the 'magic tool' surrounded in the middle, it lay there quietly, as if it was out of tune with this world...

A group of hunters surrounded a chopping board... No, when a round shield cheered, Lan Meng noticed a special existence among the crowd.

The person who proposed the 'cutting board' suggestion———Master Yuanye.

She and her teacher, as well as the head of the regiment, the master of swordsmanship, and the commander belong to the first batch of regiments, and are also the only female first-line member of the same regiment, but the difference from the others is that the other party is not a hunter but a The main job of scientific researchers is to observe and collect the ecological habits of various monsters in the wild.

As for the other party's real name, Lan Meng, I don't know, just like the group leader and the others, as a pioneer who came to the New World 60 years ago, they established the initial "star stronghold" and paved the way for those who came later. The original cornerstone, and the latecomers are not only grateful for their contributions, but also to express their longing, and everyone generally uses honorific titles.

The "big group leader" who is different from all group leaders, and the "chef" who is different from the general Ai Lu cat chef, the commander who commands everyone "commander", the teacher of all hunters "sword master", who has traveled the entire New World Observer 'Master of the Fields'...

The names are just code names, and those who don't want to call their lives directly use these new titles to express their inner longing.

Compared with the head of the group who sees the dragon and never sees the end, Master Yuanye appears more frequently in the star stronghold than the other party. At least Lan Meng has not seen the other party a few times in the past half a year, but he is already full of white hair. Hair, but with a lean body and piercing eyes, it seems that there is no fatigue.

When seeing the other party at this time, Lan Meng's teacher also waved happily at the other party.

"came back?"

"came back."

"Okay~ I'll...we'll cook you a good meal later!"

Master Yuan Ye was slightly taken aback by the chef's strange sentence. After all, the other party's attitude undoubtedly recognized Lan Meng's cooking, which also made the other party a little curious.

From a certain point of view, she went deep into the wilderness as a woman and explored no man's land. She has the strongest curiosity in the whole first-stage group, and this curiosity has also made her what she is now.

As for Lan Meng, although he was a little nervous at first, he soon returned to normal. After all, since his teacher recognized him, then... it's not a big problem.

Right now he was curious about something else.

"Master Yuanye, how could you think that this... is from a chopping board?"

As soon as Lan Meng's question was uttered, the surrounding area was unconsciously quieter, after all, everyone hadn't guessed it before...

Chapter 43 'Development'

In fact, it's not just Lan Meng who is curious, everyone is curious, but the other party doesn't care.

"I also guessed randomly, because it is impossible to bring too many things in the wild, so I use local materials for some kitchen utensils. Finding a stone to decompose ingredients is the most common usage. Speaking of which, I sometimes eat bread. After fermenting some flour, paste it on the hot stone..."

In terms of cooking skills alone, apart from the cat mother-in-law in the Yuechen stronghold, the head chef who is Lan Meng's teacher can be said to be the leader, but when it comes to the ability to survive in the wild, even it has to be ashamed, after all, the other party is alone. People who have explored the New World for nearly 60 years.

So the opponent is also very good at using various plants and animals in the wild.

Just like the cooking method of roasting hot stones mentioned by the other party just now, the head chef naturally knows that he has used this method to make food more than once when he was adventuring in the wild with the group leader, but because he has lived in the star stronghold for a long time, he is used to it. The convenience of having pots and pans made him unable to react for a while.

Of course, part of it is because Lan Meng said in advance that the scope of 'kitchen utensils' has been limited.

After hearing the other party's explanation, everyone also showed expressions of sudden realization.

Many people even completely let go of themselves under the reminder of the other party, directly ignoring the 'sawtooth' on the edge of the shield.

"Indeed, as Master Yuan Ye said, I have used this kind of big stone to roast meat in the wild before!"

"Then can it also be used as a pot in reverse?"

"Aren't you stupid? You're not afraid of a trick, and you just fly out with the facts?"

"Isn't this pot able to absorb water automatically? Oil should also be able to?"

"Then the water has been sucked, what can this pot cook?"

……

While the hunters' novel arguments are indeed very interesting, there is always a strange feeling about Lembongan.

"Fortunately, this magic tool is not conscious, otherwise, knowing that I have been 'developed' with so many strange uses, maybe I will commit suicide right away? '

Compared with the hunters who let themselves go, after expressing their opinions, Master Yuanye focused on the snowball beast that was taking a nap in Lanmeng's arms.

After getting Blue Dream's permission, the other party held it in his hand.

And the Snowball Beast, who was surprised by the opponent's actions, didn't panic anymore after glancing at Lan Meng and got a "no problem" look, but looked at the opponent curiously.

Looking at the big blinking eyes of the other party, and feeling the fluffy feel in the palm, the other party couldn't help but smile.

"Hello~ little guy~"

As if feeling the kindness of the other party, the Snowball Beast jumped even happier, and seeing this, the other party couldn't help showing a somewhat sad expression.

"It's such a cute little thing~ I can't help but think of it when I see it..."

The other party stopped abruptly in the middle of speaking, but Lan Meng followed the other party's line of sight and found that the other party was looking at her teacher.

Suddenly, Lan Meng's eyes lit up.

Yup!

Although my teacher always looks like a big brother, but any creature has a growth process, and it is impossible for my teacher to grow up like this when he was born, so doesn't it mean that his teacher also has...

"Snapped!!"

Without waiting for Lan Meng to think about it, he slapped him hard on the waist.

"Are you done with your work? Go to practice when you're done!!"

Although her teacher doesn't seem to be any different from usual, but I don't know why Lan Meng always has a feeling of embarrassment and anger from the other party. The strong desire to survive makes Lan Meng, who originally wanted to complain, decisively choose to give up.

'Obviously I am very serious in training and work, but usually...'

Looking at the somewhat embarrassed Lan Meng, the other party shook his head helplessly.

As for Lan Meng, although he said he was "running away", he obediently went to the training ground to try out his new equipment.

Although it was a surprise to get this 'magic tool' from Dante, since he intends to use it himself, the next thing he needs to do is to get familiar with everything about it.

Whether it's the weight, or the resistance when swinging, or some other details.

Knowing your own kitchen knife as a chef is fundamental to mastering your own shield as a hunter.

After staying in the training ground for several hours, Lan Meng has basically mastered the 'magic tool', and even developed some special usages. For example, it is not necessary to activate it immediately during battle, it can be held in hand Give your opponent a 'surprise'.

Think about it, when the enemy feels that his attack is imperative, a shield is suddenly blocked in front of the opponent, maybe this can be a good opportunity to counterattack.

Of course, if you choose to use it in this way, there is also the possibility of not blocking the enemy's attack and causing yourself to be injured. How to use it depends on Lan Meng's own choice.

However, according to the head of the team, Lanmeng was a bit stiff in offense because of the lack of actual combat, but his defensive performance, which tested his eyesight and decisiveness, was good. The next step is actual combat training in addition to basic training.

And this completely made Lanmeng usher in his own "good day".

Although the other party occasionally conducted some actual combat training with Lan Meng before, and pointed out his own flaws for Lan Meng through actual combat and guided him to improve his own fighting style, but in the end it was just training, and the other party would not intentionally try to fight. Hurt Blue Dream.

But now with the two reasons of 'helping Lan Meng adapt to your own equipment' and 'increasing actual combat training', the opponent is no longer as 'gentle' as before.

Accompanied by the wooden sticks that fell on his body, Lan Meng couldn't help but wonder if it was because he had teased his teacher in his heart and was heard by the other party, so the other party asked the head of the group to come Take revenge on yourself.

But rationality told him that he was overthinking. After all, with his teacher's character, if he really wanted to teach himself a lesson, he would probably do it directly.

So it means that this actual combat training is really just the opponent's foundation?

Just like what the other party said to me at the beginning, before the other party became a hunter, he took an iron sword and went to the mountains to challenge the Big Wild Boar King.

So what are you?Challenge the Golden Lion?

But no matter how much he complained in his heart, he was not slow at all, because Lan Meng knew that the other party would not keep his hand because of his distraction. It should be an honor to train yourself.

But it was also at this time that Lan Meng finally realized one thing, that is, the teaching method of his teacher and the training method of the head of the group seem to be in the same line?

This simple and crude 'basic training' is really helpless...

Sub-volume: Be a Light to Others

Chapter 1 The Fluffball Trying to Sneak

Inazuma Castle in the early morning is quiet and peaceful, no doubt this is the credit of 'Master General'!

It is precisely because of the existence of Lord General that this city can remain safe forever.

Jiujo Shaluo, who had just recovered from a trance and was in the state of a sage, couldn't help expressing such emotion as he watched the people passing by the window.

It's a pity that her sage state didn't last long, because some strange voices kept coming from her ears.

"Yaoxi~Yaoxi~Yaoxi~~"

A tall man in an indigo kimono was sitting by her side, with his hands under the table, shaking constantly.

If it was an ordinary person who just woke up and saw this scene, he would probably have called the police directly, but fortunately and unfortunately Kutiao Shaluo is not an ordinary person, and this is not the first time she has seen this scene.

Wei Wei poked her head out, and as expected, a pink fur ball was lying on her back in Lan Meng's arms.

"Nine articles? Are you awake? The bento is already ready, it's in the kitchen, take it yourself."

Regarding Lan Meng's unceremonious behavior, Jiujo Saluo didn't say much, but nodded with complicated eyes.

The complex look in her eyes is naturally not because of Lan Meng's attitude. After all, as the two parties get along longer and longer, especially after experiencing the progress of Lan Meng's cooking skills, she has already firmly believed in Lan Meng's identity as a "chef". Coupled with the trust of "Master General" in Lanmeng, Jiujo Shaluo gradually got used to treating Lanmeng as his companion.

Since it is a companion, it doesn't matter if the attitude is casual, as long as the other party maintains awe of 'Master General', it is enough.

The reason why he showed such complicated eyes was entirely because of the 'pink fur ball' in Lan Meng's hand.

At this time, the other party was lying on his back, and his whole body was lying between Lan Meng's legs. Even before that, a big tail was swinging around Lan Meng's knees, but maybe it was because he had consumed too much physical strength. Because of this, when Lan Meng's movements finally stopped, the big tail rested there silently as if it had been completely burned out.

But maybe it was because Lan Meng stopped the movement of his hands that the originally blurred head of the 'pink hairball' who was in a trance finally gradually regained consciousness.

At first sight, she saw the Nine-Joint Shaluo poking her head out.

If it was before, she might have already covered her face and ran away, just like the first time, but in the past half a month, both parties have already gotten used to the existence of the other party. At this time, not only did she not feel shy at all, Instead, he bared his teeth at Jiutiao Shaluo.

The meaning is obvious ----- don't talk nonsense.

Faced with the threat of the 'pink fur ball', Kujo Saro's mood is extremely complicated.

Because of her role as the leader of the 'Tianling Pursuit', Kutiao Shaluo can be regarded as the one who has the most contact with each other among the three major sects, but this contact usually ends with her wiping the other party's butt.

Even if I already know that the other party is not as dignified as holding a "big festival" every day in private, but often likes to play pranks on the people in Inazuma Castle, but maybe it is because of the idea that "the general is as majestic as I imagined" Influenced by it, Yae Miko's pranks are just a small game for a "senior" who has lived for an unknown number of years to kill time.

After all, although the other party can play pranks, they will often give the other party some rewards after each prank is over.

Some people even look forward to it.

But this idea has only recently collapsed completely.

Pranks can be explained by a detached personality, so how to explain the spoiled Ah Heiyan paralyzed in Lan Meng's arms?

Even the halo of fans can't help it! !
