I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot Chapter 1170: 18.8 First Grey Star - Gemstone River Crabs and Snow Vermillion Phesant

Chapter 1170: 18.8 First Grey Star - Gemstone River Crabs and Snow Vermillion Phesant

Ye Jieye left his children in the care of the two systems at early morning and went to the wilderness outside the boundaries. His modest eatery is located in a small village near the border. It's much more barren than the town where the two main characters first met. In sum, it's in risky territory near a human-inhabited location. He left the home to go to the forest and pick some food.

When he checked his house fridge, he discovered there was nothing in it and his children would have nothing to eat when they woke up.

He reviewed his vessel's funds and discovered that he was poorer than a mouse. Worse, he couldn't utilize the components in their little world since they were radically different from the ones in this planet. So he had no choice except to hunt before the sun came up.

He is dressed casually in long sleeves and jeans, with military boots and a bag on his back as camouflage for an inventory of his upcoming hunting spoils. He can also store seafood, river crabs, and shrimp in a cooler. Though he may hide the components using his wife's s.p.a.ce inventory, most of the community was aware of the original and his routine throughout the hunt.

As expected, on his way toward the forest, he b.u.mps into the town mayor and tells him, "Xiao Ye, going hunting for ingredients again?"

"Well~ I failed the a.s.sessment in the capital, old man. I can only hunt to feed my cubs and run the restaurant," Ye Jieye said as he pretended to look a bit embarra.s.sed like the original in the memories of the former Ye Jieye.

The old mayor patted his shoulder in comfort and said, "Don't mind the people of the capital. The guys there were too picky and didn't know what homemade meals taste like. Your cooking is already good. Everyone in the town likes the dishes you make. This old man guarantees it."

"Thanks, old man. Even though I failed the a.s.sessment, I've learned a lot. Come join my cubs and I for lunch later. It's my treat." Ye Jieye said.

The Old Mayor was delighted: "Hoho~ I will definitely come. There is no need for it to be free. This old man will pay. Don't do these free meals anymore. You have two children to save money for. It's hard to be a single parent but...

don't give up, child."

"I won't. Xiao Jing and Xiao Xia are my family after all. Old man, I'm going now," Ye Jieye said as he parted with the kind old mayor. Their town wasn't big enough, and everyone knew each other.

"Be careful when hunting!" The old mayor said before they separated. The older one returned to his home inside the town, while the young one went out to hunt in the wild.

Into the Wild Forest...

As soon as Ye Jieye reached its area, he felt a swarm of eyes on him. If it had been the original, he would have become wary as soon as he stepped inside. Unfortunately, the one within the vessel is no longer the original, but the G.o.d of Void, a nasty and arrogant G.o.d. He was personally verifying the map he discovered in the house as well as the specifics of the food items that lived there.

He discovered that the original Ye Jieye had included quite a few elite and rare-grade ingredients' information on the map, as well as more common cla.s.s components. However, it appears that he did not find any legendary cla.s.s ingredientss in this woodland.

Ye Jieye mumbles, "The original frequently hunts in the outer region of the forest. Would I be able to find legendary cla.s.s ingredients at the center of the forest? Maybe I should go visit the core area while picking a few rare and elite ingredients." As for the ordinary ingredients, he found out that it's just a normal one like those without world qi or energy in it.

For cultivators like him and his children, eating that is useless. So he wasn't interested in it.

He began exercising his legs and glanced in the direction of the core area. "I can't use s.p.a.ce Elements in this world, and I'm afraid I'll get lost for real if I use that, so let's just run," Ye Jieye murmured, hunched down like an Olympic marathoner and ran through the forest like a bolt.

If there is someone above the woodland right now, they will see a very quick individual das.h.i.+ng through the forest in a blur. Ye Jieye had been jogging for half an hour when he arrived at the site of one of the forest's uncommon (rare) ingredients. He was on his way to the central area, so he stopped for a while. He set the knapsack and cooler down beside the riverbank.

The river in front of him is so clear that he can see all the way to the bottom. A ma.s.sive waterfall runs in reverse not far from him. The Reverse Death Fall is one of the unusual spots in this untamed woodland.

The waterfall didn't bother Ye Jieye. He was never interested in it in the first place. He was searching down the river for river crabs. According to the map, this river should contain uncommon elements. The Gemstone River Crabs, as the name implies, have sh.e.l.ls composed of gemstones, and each gemstone imparts a distinct flavor to the crab when cooked.

Gemstone River Crabs Flavors:

Ruby: Spicy

Amethyst: Cinnamon

Emerald: Organic

Sapphire: Basil

Obsidian: Pepper

Diamond: Garlic

Amber: c.u.min

After removing a fis.h.i.+ng net from his bag. He stared at the crystal-clear river, which was devoid of fish or crabs. He remembered that fish and chicken may be used to bait crabs, but he had neglected to pack any.

"I didn't bring any bait with me."

So Ye Jieye has no choice but to hunt around for some. Unfortunately, he couldn't discover even one worm until he heard a clucking sound behind him. A white pheasant with large wings and three feather tails emerged, hunting for worms on the ground and seeing Ye Jieye.

CLUCK. CLUCK. CLUCLUCK!

Upon seeing such a ready-made bait. Ye Jieye grabbed the white pheasant. He noticed the three tails on it and mumbled,

"This chicken seems to have a bit of a phoenix bloodline. It should be delicious when roasted or used as beggar children. I'll catch more before leaving. Xiao Jing and Xiao Xia love to eat cola chicken wings after all."

Ye Jieye took the white pheasant and grilled half of it over his h.e.l.l flames, which were set to the lowest setting in order to burn the fowl to a crisp. The other half of the chicken was placed within the unique fishnet that had previously been used to catch river crabs and fish. He flung the fishnet into the river, and as soon as it reached the water, it morphed into a little dome.

He put some chicken meat inside as bait and went back to his bonfire to fry his chicken legs and wings.

The black h.e.l.l flames are the hottest and most natural fire in all of creation. n.o.body, not even the G.o.d of Fire, is supposed to be able to control it. This h.e.l.l Flame is similar to Eternal Ice. It's intelligent. The small black flames almost rapidly roasted the chicken over it under Ye Jieye's instruction.

Grilling chicken normally takes a long time, but with it, it just took 10-15 minutes to have it roasted to perfection.

Ye Jieye didn't bring many condiments. But his wife enjoys cooking, and there are many of them in their tiny world. Other ingredients are not permitted to be transported into this limited universe, however herbs and condiments appear to be permitted. He retrieved c.u.min, pepper, and salt. After dusting it on the bird, the aroma drifts down the river.

Many multicolored river crabs emerge and make their way to the beach. The fish net is already full with fish and crabs that may escape. Several gemstone river crabs made their way to the sh.o.r.e at Ye Jieye. River crabs with ruby, amethyst, emerald, sapphire, diamond, and obsidian sh.e.l.ls crawled out of the river.

Upon seeing this Ye Jieye, who is about to take a bite of his chicken can help but be stunned. He commented as he looked at the cooked chicken leg in his hands, "This white pheasant seems to be quite powerful. There should be an official name for it."

He flipped open his cooler and tipped it to the side. This is a huge cooler with a lot of room inside. It is the most convenient item to have when fis.h.i.+ng. Inside, there should be 5 × 5 meters of room. It also had a chilling effect on the interior to keep whatever was placed inside fresh.

He tossed the two cooked chicken wings inside the cooler, and these stupid and colorful river crabs entered without realizing they couldn't get out. Anything inside the cooler can only be retrieved by someone standing outside. Nothing can leave the body.

Ye Jieye closed his cooler and chased the crabs away after discovering it was a quarter full with crabs. Under the compulsion of Ye Jieye's aura, the waves of multicolored crabs fled. He strolled over to the river and took out his fishnet. He arranged the fish, clams, shrimp, and crawfish after throwing back the crabs. He then prepares to continue his quest to the forest's heart.

He noticed a few more white pheasants gathering in the woodland, seeking for insects and worms on his route. Ye Jieye concealed his presence and reviewed the details on the chicken on his left wrist terminal. He purposefully wore it on his left wrist to conceal the wound and sutures and to keep the cubs at home calm. He recalls Ye Jingxia crying when he saw his missing left hand.

If the lad spotted his scar and notified his wife when they returned, his Jing'er would be furious.

Online, there is an ingredient encyclopedia that hunters in the wild utilize. If they were able to provide fresh information on a newly found ingredient in the wild, they would even be rewarded. Ye Jieye used this function to double-check the data on the white pheasant.

His terminal reported: [Snow Vermillion Pheasant. Rare. Ranked 4. It is said to have a wisp of a phoenix bloodline, but it bore the shape of a chicken. Its meat keeps fresh even after it was killed, as there are some ice elements in its blood. It likes to eat earthworms in the wild and is even capable of eating ordinary rabbits and snakes.

It is highly cautious and one would rarely find it in the wild as most of it lives in the snowy mountains.]

Ye Jieye was a bit confused when he saw the description. He murmured, "Snowy Mountains? This place is a forest though," Bewildered by the information, he immediately calls the hotline for the Food Gathering a.s.sociation.

Click!

[Food Gathering a.s.sociation hotline. How may I help you?]

"Hm... I want to check on something about the Snow Vermilion Pheasant. Are you sure it only lives in the Snowy Mountains?" Ye Jieye asked.

[Snow Vermillion Pheasant? The rare-grade ranked 4 ingredients. Yes, sir. It's been confirmed that they only exist in the snowy mountains. Is there a problem, Sir?]

"To call it a problem is not really. But I guess you can see it for yourself." Ye Jieye took a live video of the group of Snow Vermillion Pheasants in front of him. The location and terrain are just a simple-looking forest, except that the trees are towering and the leaves are a bit thick and blackish.

When the staff observed the client who contacted the a.s.sociation's live broadcast, she was taken dumbfounded when she saw so many rare-grade Snow Vermillion Pheasant in front of her eyes. Her favorite animals are chickens. It is versatile and may be roasted, stewed, fried, or grilled. Everything is delectable.

The Snow Vermillion Pheasant is her favorite. Because of the ice, it's a little sweet and a little minty. But these chicks are rare, and the area is too perilous to explore alone. It requires at least a Heart Cla.s.s Gourmet Hunter to catch it. She was taken speechless when she saw a large gathering in the outdoors and in the woodland.

[Sir, can you share your coordinates?! Please!]

Ye Jieye didn't think much and sent it coordinates. He also left a message before turning off the call.

"I'm resuming my hunt. Maybe you should update your encyclopedia."

[Ah. Sir, wait a min...]

Click!

The phone conversation was abruptly terminated from Ye Jieye's end while on the Food Gathering a.s.sociation's end. The female employee promptly informed her boss about the events. When her superior learned what had transpired, he was astounded as well.

The manager said, "This is a great discovery for the poultry section. No one expected to see so much Snow Vermillion Pheasant, and it's in the rainforest. Have you checked his coordinates? Where is it?"

"Sir, his coordinates are... well, please see them yourself."

"Huh? Just where is it?" The manager read the location and was dumbfounded. "Outer Region, D-D-Death Forest!!?" The middle-aged man fainted in shock.

"Manager!!!"
