“???”
"What did you just say?"
"What's a breeding base? Where is it? Isn't Warden Lake the holy lake of the elven race?! You're raising ducks there?! "
The ceramic lid in Mag's hand almost fell to the ground as he glared at her.
"That's not an ordinary duck. The Red-top Tricolor Duck is an extremely rare species of wild duck. Unlike other wild ducks, which have more bones and less meat, the Red-top Tricolor Duck is more like a swan. It's plump and juicy. It's the best choice for roast duck."
"Furthermore, Red-top Tricolor Ducks are 1st-tier magic beasts, so unlike normal wild ducks, they usually travel in pairs and don't like to live in groups. They fish in lakes and swamps during the day, and sleep in trees at night. They're extremely vigilant, and there are very few of them, so it's not easy to catch them.
"Warden Lake has excellent water quality and abundant fish, making it the ideal breeding ground for Red-top Tricolor Ducks. The system has raised thousands of Red-top Tricolor Ducks in Warden Lake on a semi-free range basis. You will now have to go to Warden Lake to catch a Red-top Tricolor Duck and experience the process of obtaining food from the breeding ground. You will be able to inspect the natural breeding ground that the system has set up. The ducks raised in Warden Lake are on a completely different level from the domestic ducks.
The system began to explain.
"Wait … What's important now isn't what kind of duck it is. Is it really appropriate for you to be raising ducks in a lake? Also, why do I have to go all the way to Warden Lake to catch a duck? I'm very busy! "Meg interjected with furrowed brows.
He had only just returned to Chaos City, so he was most likely going to incur the wrath of everyone if he were to take a leave of absence again.
Of course, the most important thing was that he was very wary of The Wind Forest. Warden Lake was already in the heart of the forest, so it was very likely that he would encounter elves there.
Elves were very territorial, and no one was allowed to enter The Wind Forest without permission. If they were discovered, they would be treated as trespassers.
Meg was still far from being able to travel through The Wind Forest as he pleased. Otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to meet Irina in a year.
"The mission has been issued, and the 48-hour countdown will commence. If you're unable to complete the mission within the allotted time, 0.5 strength points and 1,000,000 copper coins will be deducted."
"Oi, you're forcing me to do this!" Meg raised an eyebrow.
"If you complete the mission, you will receive a Quanjude Peking Duck recipe, a supply of roast duck ingredients, and all necessary cooking tools."
"Peking duck?" Mag's eyes immediately lit up. This was one of his favorite delicacies. The plump roast duck had crispy skin and tender meat, and it was delicious and fragrant. Regardless of whether it was eaten directly with sweet sauce and green onions, or when it was wrapped in a lotus leaf biscuit, all of the fragrant and tender delicacies made him yearn for it.

"This recipe is called Quanjude Roast Duck. The old method of roasting duck was abandoned and the traditional method of roasting duck was improved. As for the specifics, you will naturally know after you complete the mission." The system replied.
A hint of interest appeared in Meg's eyes, but he still asked in a cautious manner, "System, The Wind Forest is very far away, and it's heavily guarded by the elven race. Am I going to die there? Won't I lose both my life and my treasure? "
"Tomorrow is the elven ceremony for the Goddess of Life. Most of the elves will be attending the ceremony, so Warden Lake is most lightly guarded. As for how to get to The Wind Forest, I'm sure you'll have a way, "the system replied in a nonchalant manner.
"Ceremony?" Meg pondered this for a moment. The elven race worshipped the Goddess of Life, and they held a grand ceremony every year. Most of the elves would attend the ceremony, so it was indeed the most lightly guarded time. However, no one could guarantee that no mishap would occur, so Meg still wore a concerned expression. "System, this is going to be a very perilous journey. Can you give me a life-saving talisman that will allow me to return to my peak condition? If I die, you'll lose everything. "
"As long as you don't do anything stupid, there's only a 5% chance that you'll die, so there's no need for a life-saving talisman. On top of that, returning to your peak condition is the ultimate prize, and it's not something that can be obtained at any time. Please be aware that you're just an unlucky person, "the system replied in a mocking voice.
"If you don't want to give me a life-saving talisman, then you can come crying to me when your father dies." Meg pursed his lips. It looked like his plan to trick the system into giving him a life-saving talisman had fallen through. Otherwise, he would've gone to the ceremony to show off his skills and alleviate some of the pressure on Irina in The Wind Forest.
"Alright, looks like I'll have to go to The Wind Forest to catch some ducks tomorrow," Tang Wulin said to himself. He still couldn't eat the roast goose that Amy had been longing for, but the roast duck roast by Quanjude's master chef was far more delicious than the roast goose. After learning how to roast a roast duck, Meg could find a goose and try it out.
"This stinky tofu …" Meg looked at the brine in front of him. He had been facing the brine for hundreds of days in the test field for the God of Cookery, and he had even tasted a large mouthful of it. Now, he could no longer smell the stench, and all he could smell was the rich aroma of the stinky tofu.
"I won't release it for the time being. I'll release it after I return from this trip. At that time, I can also test whether the molecular isolation system can really isolate the stench. This is the key to why the stinky tofu can be sold in restaurants." Meg nodded slightly. He put the lid back on, and the air treatment system automatically filled the kitchen with fresh air.
"I'll just steal a duck this time, so I'll have to keep a low profile. It'll be a little awkward if I run into Irina … It's only been a few days since the start of the year. It'll be awkward if I can't help but miss her …" Meg murmured. He couldn't help but think of the young girl in the white dress. That mischievous look was better than any girl he had ever seen.
"It shouldn't be a problem to sneak a peek …"
…
The result of the competition between Gloria and Cyril quickly spread through the business circle of Chaos City. Family Moreton was one of the most prestigious families in Chaos City, and everyone was always curious about the successor.
Back when Lance announced that he would give up on inheriting Family Moreton's business and choose to become a teacher at Chaos School, Cyril became Geoffrey's only choice.
Everyone thought that Cyril would eventually inherit Family Moreton and become the new head of the family. Who would have thought that after Lance's daughter grew up, she would announce her participation in the competition?
