"The lotus roots in this magma lake are growing every day. The number of lotus roots is dynamic. If necessary, as long as I input enough aura value and merit value, I could increase the number of lotus flowers by two times in a short period. However, given the current situation, these lotus roots have already far surpassed the total amount that you could absorb and digest as a shadow knight!"
"What do you mean? Do you mean I can't eat them up?"
"Of course, fiery lotus roots are the most powerful tonic to a certain degree. One could only absorb a limited quantity of fiery lotus roots according to different physiques, cultivation methods, spiritual energy and knight level. Therefore, the quantity of fiery lotus roots that one could take is also different!"
Zhang Tie nodded, "I see. How do I eat these lotus roots? Do I soak them in liquor like how I eat fiery lotus seeds?"
"No!" Heller shook his head, "If you eat them like that, the effect of these fiery lotus roots could be easily absorbed. Actually, if you want to play the maximal effect of these fiery lotus roots, you have to eat them in a special environment!"
"A special environment?"
"You have to cool down and soften these fiery lotus roots rapidly in the environment below minus 100 degrees Celsius. After that, you have to eat them directly!"
"In the environment below minus 100 degrees Celsius?"
"Of course, if you eat them in the natural environment, such as the underground world, or near the place where Fiery Lotus grows, it's hard to find a cold environment to eat them when they're freshest. Because once the roots of Fiery Lotus are picked out of the lava, they'll enter the ultra-low temperature in a short time. Then, their essence will be less lost, and they'll be easier to be digested and absorbed. Therefore, the effect will be more powerful! To be honest, Castle Lord's master might have eaten some fiery lotus roots somewhere; however, the environment where Zhao Yuan ate those fiery lotus roots couldn't be such a perfect environment. A great part of the effect of those fiery lotus roots was definitely wasted … "
"However, I don't need to worry about that, right?"
"You're right. Castle of Black Iron could provide the most perfect environment for Castle Lord. Meanwhile, Castle Lord could play the maximal effect of these fiery lotus roots. As for how much you could eat, it depends on Castle Lord." Heller said confidently. Zhang Tie indeed didn't need to worry about that.
Because he had long had a super large low-temperature freezer in Castle of Black Iron which was especially used to store food. He even used that freezer to freeze the flesh of huge deep-sea monster. The temperature of that freezer could be completely controlled by Heller. Additionally, that freezer was above this underground karst cave. It would only take Heller a few minutes to arrive there by foot. If he ran or moved forward by using the ability of divine dominator, he would move faster.
Zhang Tie sighed with emotion, "I've not imagined that a fiery lotus root could play its maximal effect in such a low environment!"
"Fiery lotus grows in such a high-temperature environment; especially its roots which are soaked in high-temperature magma all day long. However, if you want to fully absorb its effect, you need a completely opposite environment. Perhaps this is the principle of water and fire complementing each other and yin and yang complementing each other!"
"I can't wait anymore!" Zhang Tie rubbed his hands as he watched the lake full of fiery lotus roots with gleaming eyes.
"Castle Lord, you indeed don't need to wait any longer!" Heller said with a smile as he pointed at the magma lake full of fiery lotus roots, "Castle Lord, you could take those fiery lotus roots out of the magma lake using the ability of divine dominator. After that, you could enjoy them in the freezer on the upper floor and feel their extraordinary effect and ability!"
"How long do I need to take these fiery lotus roots into the freezer before I eat them?"
"About 30 minutes later, as long as Castle Lord sees the red light on the surface of these fiery lotus roots gradually dissipating and the first layer of frost forming on the surface of the fiery lotus roots, you could directly eat them up. You'd better eat each fiery lotus root within 1 hour from the moment it forms frost. If it's frozen for too long, its effect would be affected. Castle Lord, you could cut off a section of fiery lotus root and put it in the freezer. After eating it, you could cut off the second section and cook it on the spot. It's best to eat it on the spot …"
"Fine!"
After figuring it out, Zhang Tie didn't want to wait any longer. Closely after Heller's words, Zhang Tie had moved his eyes onto a fiery lotus not far from him. In his lotus-flower eyes, the high-temperature magma under the fiery lotus instantly turned as transparent as water. As a result, Zhang Tie could clearly see the lotus roots under the fiery lotus.
The roots of the Fiery Lotus glowed with red light and were golden all over. They were like sections of gold growing out of magma. Some were big, some were small, some were long, some were short, some were thick, and some were thin. The shape and size of the Fiery Lotus' roots were exactly the same as that of ordinary lotus roots.
The bottom of the magma lake was covered with the roots of the Fiery Lotus. It would take more than a few trucks to transport all the roots.
"Split …" Zhang Tie ran his spiritual energy as a powerful spiritual energy penetrated into the magma lake from over 10 m away like an invisible sharp saber. Closely after that, he cut off a fiery lotus root which was as thick as a kid's arm. Closely after that, Zhang Tie ran his spiritual energy again. Closely after that, the golden lotus root flew out of the magma lake and floated in the air while giving out brilliant red light.
After making a hand gesture to Heller, Zhang Tie directly caught the golden lotus root and flew towards the freezer on the upper floor.
The fiery lotus root was as hot as the magma. It was as hot as a piece of red-hot iron. Commoners would be injured only by touching it. However, as a powerful knight like Zhang Tie, as long as he covered a small layer of protective battle qi on his hand, he could easily hold the fiery lotus root which had just been cut off from the magma lake.
Strangely, previously, Zhang Tie thought that this fiery lotus root would be very heavy; however, after holding it, he felt that it was even lighter than common lotus root. The immortal equipment of the creator was really amazing …
