Chapter 352 - 154: A True Master Always Has the Heart of an Apprentice
"Master, do these corpses need to be dealt with?" Mao Mao flew over and asked.
Lu Wenwu thought for a moment, "Hmm... I’ll handle it myself."
Just as Tiger Mo and Hu Frost were pondering how he planned to handle these insect corpses, they saw Lu Wenwu suddenly jump to the side of an Acidic Titan’s corpse.
He grasped a sharp, long forelimb of the creature, raised his right hand high, and smashed it down with force.
"Crack!"
A crisp sound rang out, and a massive forelimb broke off.
Lu Wenwu glanced at the yellow cross-section, igniting a ball of True Sun Fire in his hand.
He kept this True Sun Fire as far away as possible, maintaining a scorching temperature, while using spiritual power to lift the entire forelimb in the air, slowly rotating it.
Hu Frost hesitated for a moment and asked, "Violent Dragon, you... you don’t mean to eat this thing, do you?"
"Ah, yeah, what else would I do?"
Lu Wenwu replied while pulling various spices from his personal backpack, crushing garlic and ginger into a bowl to make a sauce.
Hu Frost’s pretty yet aloof face immediately became conflicted, showing a peculiar expression of shock, disdain, panic, and disbelief layered together.
She just stared at the Acidic Titan’s forelimb suspended in mid-air, unable to come to her senses for a long time.
"Is it really so surprising?" Lu Wenwu said, amused and helpless, "There are many disgusting species in the deep sea, like sea anemones, starfish, and barnacles, but you all find them delicious, don’t you?"
"It’s not the same!" Hu Frost immediately retorted.
"Why is it different?" Lu Wenwu raised an eyebrow, "Looking at this thing from the land, shouldn’t it be like how we see shrimp and crabs from the sea? They’re all from the arthropod phylum crustacean class."
"Just... just..."
Hu Frost racked her brains trying to dig out words from her mind to express how eating insects is gross.
And dining in this place makes it even grosser.
However, the sudden aroma interrupted her thoughts.
It was an extremely rich and distinctive fragrance that she had never smelled before.
Wait, how can there be a fragrance in this stinking mountain of corpses and sea of blood?
Suddenly looking up, she was stunned, her gaze immediately drawn to the Acidic Titan’s forelimb, which had turned a pale red color.
The green blood was completely evaporated by the True Sun Fire, and the internal toxins were thoroughly purified in the presence of this world’s Divine Fire.
As the moisture dried, the originally somewhat limp yellowish-soft flesh of the insect gradually firmed up, presenting a gold-tinged white, as pristine as white jade.
The lively Tiger Mo had already squatted beside Lu Wenwu, drooling, holding the sauce bowl with his left hand and Mao Mao with his right, eagerly awaiting to be fed.
A minute later, the True Sun Fire dispersed.
With the infusion of a large number of spell marks, the entire Acidic Titan’s forelimb had completely turned red.
Infused with intense spirituality, the glossy white meat inside revealed a golden hue, exuding an enticing fresh aroma.
Lu Wenwu cut off a piece and tried it straight.
The meat was firm and tender yet springy, a bite resulted in a delightful chew.
Although it had no flavor, it carried a unique energy that exploded in the body, making one feel warm.
Adding the freshly prepared sauce, the taste was indescribably wonderful.
If you didn’t mention it was meat from the Acidic Titan, Lu Wenwu might think it was some new type of seafood.
The energy contained within was quite decent too.
Estimating that eating an entire one might increase about 5 free attributes.
But that’s unnecessary.
Eating the whole thing means including the acid and acid sacs, the shell too.
Since things aren’t dire yet, Lu Wenwu decided not to torment himself.
After quietly feeling for about a minute, his Qi Blood surged, and he smashed all the shells on the forelimb, finally speaking: "No poison, tastes good."
"Awoo awoo awoo!"
"Woof woof woof!"
Tiger Mo and Mao Mao immediately pounced like hungry wolves, each grabbing a head and began gnawing away like they were holding a giant crab leg, eating without lifting their heads.
They didn’t even bother dipping the sauce, just took a mouthful of sauce and ate a mouthful of meat, delicious!
Hu Frost hesitated and struggled for a full two minutes.
It wasn’t until Tiger Mo and Mao Mao finished half a leg that she finally made up her mind, took a bowl of sauce from Lu Wenwu, and joined in the feast.
Lu Wenwu himself didn’t have much of an obsession with this thing.
He simply snapped off all the Acidic Titan’s legs and stuffed them into the Spirit Heaven Cave Heaven.
As for its body, he cut off the segment with strong meat near the tail and preserved it, leaving the rest.
Lu Wenwu was in a good mood now, casually pulled out two ready-made egg-filled pancakes to eat.
This battle is truly satisfying!
Not only can attribute points be earned, but also a delicious new ingredient discovered, truly delightful!
As a Spirit Chef, one must try new ingredients.
Even if they look inedible, one should try them first!
I wonder if the Acidic Titan can reproduce, if I could get a few to raise in Spirit Heaven Cave Heaven, that would be great.
When you want to eat, just chop off a leg, the ingredient is fresh.
After a simple taste of the insect leg, Lu Wenwu decided not to grill more for now, planning to finish the mission first, as this task has a deadline.
The group continued moving towards the main objective location guided by the personal terminal.
This mission’s main objective is to activate the Elemental Pump 710 and send Element 710 to the transport ship, seems not too difficult.
