Nian Bing nodded and said, "But, it's so easy to find top-grade magic gems. My luck is already pretty good, and I only have four pieces now. He was still missing the Earth, Space, and Darkness attributes. Do you know where I can find them? You have so many gems in your collection, don't you have any top-grade gems? "
Garamandis said with slight anger, "Good boy, you're trying to trick me. No, no, if you want to use them, find them yourself. Don't forget, even those gems of yours should belong to me. I'm just lending them to you now. You said you were going to take me to Ao Lan City to eat some special delicacies, bullshit, we haven't even walked around Ao Lan City enough, you're obviously just going to find someone. "
Nian Bing said with some embarrassment, "You saw it too, because of the war, the Ottoman Empire is in such a bad state, of course there are very few delicacies. After all, only when the country is prosperous can all industries prosper. This time is different, our destination is the prosperous Huarong Empire, when that time comes, there will naturally be good food. My teacher once said that the Huarong Empire has the most high-level chefs. "
Garamandis Nian Bing gestured with his fist and said, "That's for the best, if I find out that you lied to me again, you're dead meat."
Nian Bing laughed and said, "Lied to you? How could I? Garamandis, I thought of another magic combination, how about you let me try it? You're the target. "
Garamandis was stunned and said, "You want to use me as a target? Dream on. "
Nian Bing said temptingly, "A big pot of pearl jade white jade congee. Do you want it? "
Hearing this. Garamandis was immediately moved. Looking at Nian Bing, he hesitated. Nian Bing hurriedly said, "Great Garamandis, you know, if I directly use magic, it will definitely cause a lot of magic waves, easily attracting unnecessary trouble. But with you, it's different, you can easily block my magic with a simple barrier. "
There are two pots of pearl, jadeite and white jade congee. You have to cook them wholeheartedly for me, otherwise, there's no need to talk about it. "Garamandis made his request.
"No problem. I'll keep my word. Nian Bing looked at Garamandis with a smile. No matter if it was a human or a dragon, as long as there was a weakness, there was no need to be afraid that he would not submit.
A red light flashed, and enveloped Nian Bing's body. Then, a silver light flashed, and the two disappeared from the official road at the same time.
Half an hour later, there were two more people on the official road. One was naturally the complacent Garamandis, and the other was … It was Nian Bing, who was covered in dust and whose face was pale.
"Why is this happening? Garamandis, you freak, how can you reflect magic? Although Nianbing's voice was filled with anger, it sounded weak.
Garamandis chuckled. "Do you think your enemy will show mercy to you? If you want to live a better life, you have to work hard and think of a way yourself. When will the pearl and jade congee be made? “
Nian Bing fell into deep thought. He couldn't understand. The magic he thought of this time was using the same origin of ice and fire, plus two kinds of mimicry, a total of four kinds of magic fusion, but the power produced was not as strong as the two congee that day. What the hell is going on here? Where did it go wrong?
"Kid, I know what you're thinking. How about this, turn two pots into three pots of pearl and jade congee, and I'll tell you where you went wrong." “
Nian Bing's eyes lit up. He hurriedly said, "Okay, no problem, three pots it is, tell me quickly. Why did I consume more than eighty percent of my magic power, and used two seventh-grade and two sixth-grade magic fusion, a total of four magic fusion, but the power was not much stronger. Although it looked gorgeous, the effect was too poor, and was not proportional to the magic power consumed. “
Garamandis chuckled and said, "You idiot, do you think it's so easy to use magic fusion? Even if you have the same origin of ice and fire as a guide, when using four kinds of magic, you can't bring out the characteristics of each element of magic. Especially when four kinds of magic are used at the same time, there will be repelling or attracting characteristics between each other. These characteristics are very subtle, even if you use the same magic, there will be different changes every time. Unless your spiritual power is strong enough to withstand higher level magic, why would you use the difficult and undesirable method of fusing four kinds of magic? So, I'll tell you a simple theory. Fusing magic is not bad, but fusing two kinds of magic is enough. Fusing more kinds of magic will only produce the opposite effect. When you used that magic just now, I almost laughed out loud, wanting to see you make a fool of yourself. Fortunately, your strength is not bad, and it was not reflected. In the future, if you do this and become a joke to others, don't say that you followed me. “
Hearing Garamandis's words, Nian Bing's heart suddenly had a feeling of suddenly being enlightened. Yes, too much fusion is not something that I can withstand. Just like a powerful giant dragon like Garamandis, his strongest magic is only one kind of fire element, why should I pursue too many magic fusion? It's better to fully grasp the characteristics of each element of magic, and use different combinations when facing different enemies, the effect will naturally be much better. Understanding this point, Nian Bing's face could not help but reveal a faint smile.
At this time, Garamandis's face suddenly changed, and said in a deep voice, "Wait for me here, don't move." A red light flashed, and his figure disappeared. The moment Garamandis left, Nian Bing's heart tightened, because she clearly felt a heavy killing intent from Garamandis's body. This is the first time she felt such an aura since knowing Garamandis. Although she did not understand why, but she knew, to be able to cause Garamandis's killing intent, to be able to become Garamandis's enemy, is definitely not someone that she can deal with.
Walking to the side of a big tree and sitting down, Nian Bing slowly recovered the magic that she had previously lost, carefully observing the surrounding movements. Not long after, the red light flashed again, Garamandis returned. His handsome face was full of anger. His body was surrounded by a red light, and coming in front of Nian Bing, he suddenly hit a big tree with his palm. Immediately, the tree trunk was completely turned into flying ash, covering Nian Bing's face. "Bastard. Damn, I let him escape again, what a bastard, running faster than a monkey. " Garamandis cursed angrily.
Nian Bing brushed the dust off her body and asked, "What did you find?" “
Garamandis said, "Just now, I suddenly felt the aura of Moodas's Bottle of Sealing, and immediately chased after it, but that guy escaped again with space magic." “
Nian Bing said strangely, "Did that guy steal your Moodas's Bottle of Sealing and run around to tease you, isn't he tired of living?" “
Garamandis shook his head and said, "No. Although the one just now was also Moodas's Bottle of Sealing, it was not the aura of my bottle. Although the seven Moodas's Bottle of Sealing are exactly the same, because they are under the protection of our Seven Dragon Kings. Each one will more or less be stained with some of our aura, I can be sure that the one that appeared just now was not mine. It seems that these guys really do have some ability, to actually attack our Seven Dragon Kings at the same time. Nian Bing, I'm afraid I won't be able to drink your pearl jade white jade porridge for the time being, things are much more serious than I thought. I have to gather the other six Dragon King now to see how many of Moodas's Bottle of Sealing have been stolen. The task given to us by the Dragon God must not be sloppy in the slightest. Be careful, I will come back to you when I'm done with these things. " “
Nian Bing looked at Garamandis in surprise, "You mean, you're leaving now? “
Garamandis looked at her angrily and said, "Haven't you always wanted to be free? What? Now you regret it. Do you still want to go with me to see the other six Dragon King? No humans were allowed to enter the Draconic World. You're on your own. As for your future training. You just need to follow the rules and meditate to enhance your magic power, and look for top gems when you have the chance. I'll lend you this first. Don't worry, it's easy for me to find you. Be careful to protect your own life, you can't die before you give me back my three pearl jade white jade porridge. " The red light turned into silver light, and a dazzling silver light appeared in Garamandis's hand. It was an opening, a strange opening. In the middle of the weapon was a hexagonal gem. The gem was silver, but the silver light was constantly changing, and every time it changed, it would cause the whole weapon to flash. With the hexagonal silver gem as the center, six blades extended out. Each blade was about half a foot long, and the silver light flashed. Nian Bing didn't doubt its sharpness.
Garamandis raised his hand, and the six-edged silver blade in his palm started to spin quickly. No matter how he waved his arm, the blade kept flashing as if it was attached to his palm. The silver light jumped along with Garamandis's palm. He muttered a few spells, and the blade suddenly disappeared. When Nian Bing's mind moved, the six-edged silver blade appeared ten feet away, drawing a beautiful arc, and all the plants in its path were cut into pieces.
The six-edged silver blade returned to Garamandis's hand, and it was still spinning. Garamandis said, "Look at Lucid Dream. This saber is very difficult to control. Whether or not you can truly unleash its power is up to you. You should have noticed that the gem in the middle is a high quality spatial magic gem. The preciousness of spatial magic gems is no less than that of light and darkness gems. Moreover, for the current you, if you can use camouflage to master spatial magic, the benefits will be the greatest. At least it can help you better save your life. But you have to be careful, don't cut off your hand before you use it. This blade can be used in many ways, it depends on your wisdom. The blade is called Xuanji, and the one who made it was a master blacksmith from ancient times. He completed it with the help of twelve spatial magic tutors. Compared to the Holy Radiance Blade, it is a lot more mysterious, but its origin is not small at all. You can experience it yourself. Oh, right, it has its own name, you don't need to give it another name. The Divine Weapon of Hundred Transformations — Xuanji Blade. " With a flash of silver light, it had already landed at Nian Bing's feet. In the next moment, Garamandis' figure disappeared in the red light.
"I only have this one high quality magic gem, keep it carefully. Remember the pearl jade white jade porridge you owe me, take care of yourself …" The voice faded away, and the dragon's breath in the air completely disappeared. He had regained his freedom, but at this moment, Nian Bing's heart was filled with disappointment. Even he himself did not understand why, but looking at the strangely shaped Xuanji Blade on the ground, his heart was filled with reluctance. Garamandis's handsome appearance and joking voice kept echoing in his mind, his heart trembled slightly. Garamandis, you are leaving just like that?
Suddenly, Nian Bing raised his head and shouted at the blue sky, "Garamandis, listen to me, if you don't come to me in three months, what I owe you is null and void." His voice was very loud, and it startled the birds in the forest. Nian Bing slowly lowered his head after he finished shouting. He muttered to himself, "If you can come back in three months, I'll definitely cook for you, no matter what the conditions are." In fact, even he himself did not know that after two months of contact, Garamandis was both a teacher and a friend in his heart. The sudden separation made him feel a little lost.
What was in Moordas' sealed bottle? Garamandis refused to tell him, what was the secret sealed in the seven bottles? Nian Bing's heart was full of doubts, but at the same time, he was full of curiosity. He found that there were too many things in this Yangon continent that he did not know. It was not on his level. If he wanted to understand everything, he had to start from himself.
Shaking his head hard, Nian Bing threw away the distracting thoughts in his mind, and the sense of loss gradually disappeared. After all, Garamandis would still come back, and he would definitely be reluctant to part with the delicious food that he made. Now, what he had to do was to go to the Huarong Empire's capital, Du Tian City, and fulfill his promise to Long Zhi. He remembered that when he left Du Tian City, he was only seven years old. After more than ten years, he was finally going back.
Nian Bing was not in a hurry. Every time he went to a city, he would rest for a few days to meditate and study magic. When he left Auland City, there were still three months before the Five Countries' New Magician Competition. Three months was enough for him to hurry. Just like what he heard in Auland City, the further he went to the south of the Ottoman Empire, the more barren the surroundings became. Walking on the road, he could often see a desolate scene. This phenomenon only stopped when Nian Bing entered the Huarong Empire from the southwest of the Ottoman Empire.
Nian Bing nodded, and said, "But, top-grade magic gems are so easy to find. My luck is already quite good, and I only have four pieces now. He was still missing the Earth, Space, and Darkness attributes. Do you know where I can find them? You have so many collections, don't you have any top-grade gems? "
Garamandis was slightly angry, and said, "Good boy, you're trying to take advantage of me. No, no, if you want to use them, find them yourself. Don't forget, even those gems of yours should belong to me. I'm just lending them to you now. What do you mean you're bringing me to Auland City to eat special delicacies? Bullshit, we haven't even walked around Auland City enough to leave. You're obviously just going to find someone. "
Nian Bing said awkwardly, "You've seen it too. Because of the war, the Ottoman Empire is in such a bad state. Of course, there are very few delicacies. After all, only when the country is prosperous can all industries prosper. This time, it's different. Our destination is the prosperous Huarong Empire. When that time comes, there will naturally be good food. My teacher once said that the Huarong Empire has the most number of top-grade chefs. "
Garamandis Nianbing waved his fist, and said, "That's for the best. If I find out that you're lying to me again, you're dead meat."
Nian Bing chuckled, and said, "Lying to you? Why would I? Garamandis, I've thought of another magic combination. Why don't you let me try it? I'll use you as my target. "
Garamandis was stunned, and said, "You want to use me as your target? Dream on. "
Nian Bing tempted, "A big pot of pearl jade white jade congee. Do you want it? "
Hearing this. Garamandis was immediately moved. He glanced at Nian Bing, and hesitated. Nian Bing hurriedly said, "Great Garamandis, you know that if I directly use magic, it will definitely cause a lot of magic waves, and it will easily attract unnecessary trouble. But with you, it's different. Any barrier of yours can easily block my magic. "
Two pots of pearl jade white jade congee. You have to make it for me wholeheartedly, otherwise, there's no need to talk. Garamandis made his request.
"No problem, I'll keep my word." Nian Bing looked at Garamandis with a smile. No matter if it's a human or a dragon, as long as there's a weakness, there's no need to be afraid that he won't comply.
A red light flashed, enveloping Nian Bing's body, followed by a silver light, and the two disappeared on the official road at the same time.
Half an hour later, there were two more people on the official road. One was naturally the complacent Garamandis, and the other. It was Nian Bing, who was covered in dust and whose face was pale.
"Why is it like this, Garamandis, you pervert, how can you reflect magic?" Although Nianbing's voice was filled with anger, it sounded weak.
Garamandis chuckled. "Do you think your enemy will show mercy to you? If you want to survive better, you have to work hard to think of a way. When will the pearl jade white jade congee be made? " “
Nian Bing fell into deep thought. He couldn't understand. The magic he thought of this time was to use the same source of ice and fire, and two kinds of mimicry. A total of four kinds of magic fused, but the power produced was not as strong as the one that day. What the hell is going on here? Where did it go wrong?
"Boy, I know what you're thinking. How about this, turn two pots into three pots of pearl jade white jade congee, and I'll tell you where you went wrong." “
Nian Bing's eyes lit up. He hurriedly said, "Okay, no problem, three pots it is, tell me quickly. Why was it that I had spent more than eighty percent of my mana to cast two spells of the seventh step and two spells of the sixth step, a total of four spells of the sixth step, but the power wasn't that much stronger. Although it looked a little more beautiful, the effect was too poor. It was completely disproportionate to the amount of mana consumed. “
Garamandis laughed, and said, "You idiot, do you think it's so easy to fuse magic? Even if you have the same source of ice and fire, when you use four kinds of magic, you can't bring out the characteristics of each element of magic. Especially when four kinds of magic are used at the same time, there will be repelling or attracting characteristics. These characteristics are very subtle. Even if you use the same magic, there will be different changes every time.

I wanted to see you make a fool of yourself. Fortunately, your strength is not bad, and it was not reversed. In the future, if you do this and become a joke to others, don't say that you followed me. “
Hearing Garamandis's words, Nian Bing suddenly felt enlightened. Yes, too much fusion is not something I can withstand. Just like a powerful dragon like Garamandis, his strongest magic is only one kind of fire element. Why should I pursue too much fusion of magic? It's better to fully grasp the characteristics of each element of magic, and use different combinations when facing different enemies. That way the effect will be much better. Understanding this point, Nian Bing's face could not help but reveal a faint smile.
At this time, Garamandis's face suddenly changed, and said in a deep voice, "Wait for me here, don't move." A red light flashed, and his figure disappeared. The moment Garamandis left, Nian Bing's heart tightened, because she clearly felt a heavy murderous intent from Garamandis. This is the first time she felt such an aura since she met Garamandis. Although she did not understand why, she knew that someone who could cause Garamandis to have such a murderous intent and become an enemy of Garamandis was definitely not someone she could deal with.
Walking to the side of a big tree and sitting down, Nian Bing slowly recovered the magic she had lost, and carefully observed the surrounding movements. Not long after, the red light shone again, Garamandis returned. His handsome face was full of anger. The red light around his body was faintly discernible. Coming in front of Nian Bing, he suddenly hit a big tree with his palm. Immediately, the tree trunk was completely turned into flying ash, covering Nian Bing's face. "Scoundrel. Damn, I let him run away again. What a scoundrel, he runs faster than a monkey. " Garamandis cursed angrily.
Nian Bing brushed the dust off her body and asked, "What did you find?" “
Garamandis said, "Just now, I suddenly felt the aura of Moodas' Bottle of Sealing and immediately chased after it, but that guy used spatial magic to escape again." “
Nian Bing said strangely, "Did that guy steal your Moodas' Bottle of Sealing and run around to tease you? Isn't he tired of living?" “
Garamandis shook his head and said, "No. Although that was also Moodas' Bottle of Sealing, it was not the aura of mine. Although the seven Moodas' Bottle of Sealing are exactly the same, because they are under the protection of the Seven Dragon Kings, some of them will be tainted. Every single one of them would more or less carry some of our aura. I am certain that the one that appeared just now wasn't mine. It seems that these guys really do have some ability, to actually attack the Seven Dragon Kings at the same time. Nian Bing, I'm afraid I won't be able to drink your pearl jade white jade porridge for the time being. Things are much more serious than I thought. I have to gather the other six Dragon King now to see how many of Moodas' Bottle of Sealing have been stolen. The task given to us by the Dragon God must not be sloppy in the slightest.

You can't die before you give me back my three pearl jade white jade porridge. " The red light turned into silver light, and a dazzling silver light appeared in Garamandis' hand. It was an opening, a strange opening. In the center of the weapon was a hexagonal gem. The gem was silver, but the silver light was constantly changing. Every time it changed, it would cause the whole weapon to flash. With the hexagonal silver gem as the center, six blades extended outwards. Each blade was about half a foot long, and the silver light flickered. Nian Bing didn't doubt its sharpness.
Garamandis raised his palm, and the six-edged silver knife began to spin rapidly in his palm. No matter how he waved his arm, the knife kept flashing as if it was stuck to his palm. The silver light danced along with Garamandis' palm. He murmured a few incantations, and the knife suddenly disappeared. When Nian Bing's mind moved, the six-edged silver knife appeared a hundred feet away. It drew a beautiful arc in the air, and all the plants in its path were cut into pieces.
The six silver blades returned to Garamandis' hand, and it was still spinning. Garamandis said, "See clearly now. This saber is very difficult to control. Whether or not you can truly unleash its power is up to you. You should have already noticed that the gem in the center is a top quality spatial magic gem. The preciousness of spatial magic gems is not inferior to light and darkness gems. Moreover, for the current you, if you can use the camouflage to master spatial magic, the benefits will be the greatest. At least it can help you better save your life.

In the next moment, Garamandis' figure disappeared in the red light.
"I only have one piece of top quality magic gem, keep it carefully. Remember the pearl jade white jade porridge you owe me, take care of yourself …" The voice faded away, and the dragon's breath in the air completely disappeared. He regained his freedom, but at this moment, Nian Bing's heart was filled with disappointment. Even he himself did not understand why, but looking at the strangely shaped Xuanji Blade on the ground, his heart was filled with reluctance. Garamandis's handsome appearance and joking voice kept echoing in his mind. His heart trembled slightly. Garamandis, you are leaving just like that?

What was in Moordas' sealed bottle? Garamandis refused to tell him, what was the secret sealed in the seven bottles? Nian Bing's heart was filled with doubt, but at the same time, he was filled with curiosity. He realized that there were too many things that he did not know about the Yangon Continent. They were not on his level. If he wanted to understand everything, he had to start from himself.
Nian Bing shook his head hard and threw away the distracting thoughts in his mind. The sense of loss gradually disappeared. After all, Garamandis would still come back. He would definitely be reluctant to part with the delicious food that he had cooked. Now, what he had to do was to go to the capital of the Huarong Empire, Dutian City, and fulfill his promise to Long Zhi. He remembered that he was only seven years old when he left Dutian City. It had been more than ten years, and he was finally going back.
Nian Bing was not in a hurry. Every time he went to a city, he would rest for a few days to meditate and study magic. When he left Auland City, there were still three months before the Five Nations New Magician Competition. Three months was enough for him to hurry on. Just like what he had heard in Auland City, the further he went to the south of the Ottoman Empire, the more barren the surroundings became. When he walked on the road, he would often see desolate scenes. This phenomenon only stopped when Nian Bing entered the Huarong Empire from the southwest of the Ottoman Empire.
In the distance, a huge city crawled on the vast plains like a monster. It could no longer be described as a city. Straddling the border between the Ottoman Empire and the Huarong Empire, Taru City was clearly a huge fortress. On both sides of the fortress, the Huarong Empire's army stretched for hundreds of miles. The Huarong Empire's geographical location was extremely good. It was an empire deep in the south, occupying a large amount of fertile land. Moreover, its southwest was facing the sea. Although it bordered the Langmu, Kiru, and Auland Empires, the area it needed to defend was not large. The Huarong Empire placed great importance on military affairs. The empire's main fighting force was made up of four major armies. They were the Northern Army, which was stationed at the border between the Langmu Empire and the Langmu Empire in the north, the Northeastern Army, which was stationed near Taru City in the northeast, the Eastern Army, which was stationed at the border between the Kiru Empire and the Eastern Army, and the Central Army, which was stationed near the capital, Dutian City. The number of soldiers serving in the empire was no less than 1.2 million. To the other empires, it would be a huge burden to maintain so many soldiers. However, to the rich Huarong Empire, this was not a difficult matter. For example, when they attacked the surrounding areas, they did not really want to steal anything. More importantly, it was to train the soldiers. After all, soldiers who had never been on the battlefield were not qualified soldiers.
The four armies of the Huarong Empire were each led by a marshal. Among them, the Central Army was the most powerful. The famous Order of the Flaming Lion was the elite of the elites in the Central Army. What Nian Bing saw now was the Huarong Empire's Northeastern Army, which was stationed at Taru City. Taru City was not like Binglan City, which was controlled by two empires. The Huarong Empire's army was stationed here, while the Ottoman Empire's army retreated inland. No matter if it was in terms of equipment, soldiers' pay, or numbers, the Ottoman Empire was far inferior to the Huarong Empire. If it was not for the Langmu Empire, which was also a powerful country, restraining the Huarong Empire, the Huarong Empire would have already opened its flaming lion's mouth and swallowed the Ottoman Empire.
Before reaching Taru City, Nian Bing first had to pass through the Huarong Empire's defense line. It would be strictly inspected. If it aroused even a trace of suspicion, it would be banned from the Huarong Empire. However, Nian Bing had his own way of dealing with the inspection. After all, he was a citizen of the Huarong Empire. His understanding of the Huarong Empire was mostly limited to what his father had told him. Although he did not have much love for his motherland, his roots were in Huarong. His memories of the Huarong Empire were deeply engraved in his mind.
Standing at the back of the inspection line, Nian Bing looked up at the huge city gate of Taru City that was like the mouth of a giant lion. He murmured, "Huarong, I'm back. After more than ten years, I'm back. I remember when I left that year, I passed by here. Father, don't worry. If possible, I will definitely take back what we deserve. "
The inspection was very fast. Most of the civilians and merchants entering the city had a pass issued by the Huarong Empire. With this pass, they could easily enter the city. After all, there were very few people who dared to cause trouble in the Huarong Empire. It was not a time of war. Naturally, the inspection was not very strict.
When it was finally Nian Bing's turn, the armored commander spoke to him like he did to the others, "Show me your pass. His tone was not strict. This was because he saw Nian Bing's long blonde hair. Blonde hair was very common in the Huarong Empire. The guards would always be more polite to their own people. Someone once calculated that more than 90% of the upper nobles of the Huarong Empire had blonde hair.
Shaking his head, Nian Bing said indifferently, "I'm sorry, I don't have a pass."
"You don't?" The guard commander looked at him with some surprise. Nian Bing did not have any luggage on him, and his clothes were very ordinary. However, the guard commander who had seen a lot of people saw an unusual temperament from him. "Since you don't have a pass, we need to search your body. Please go over there." As he said that, he pointed to a simple house next to the city gate.
Shaking his head again, Nian Bing stretched out his right hand. "I don't think it's necessary." With a poof, a flame burned in the palm of his hand. The flame swayed in the breeze, and suddenly the surrounding temperature rose a few degrees. "I'm a magician." “
The guard commander's surprise suddenly turned into respect. "So it's Mr. Magician. Please enter the city." After saying that, he hurriedly stepped aside. Nian Bing stepped in and did not encounter any obstacles.
The Huarong Empire was a country that worshipped fire. Due to the prosperity of magic in the country, the king and the commoners were very respectful of magicians, especially powerful magicians. Therefore, the king once issued an order that as long as one was a magician, no matter which country they were from, they could enter the Huarong Empire. Especially fire magicians, they were the most popular target in the Huarong Empire. Coupled with Nian Bing's blonde hair, the guards naturally did not stop him.
The first feeling he had when he entered Taru City was that it was prosperous. It was a sharp contrast to the Ottoman Empire. The streets were bustling with people, and there was no lack of soldiers on vacation. No matter what kind of business they ran, the business was very good. As a border city, it was actually so prosperous. Perhaps only the Huarong Empire could do so. No one here would be worried about the invasion of foreign enemies. After all, the Huarong Empire's Northeast Army stationed here was not to be trifled with.
Taking a deep breath, Nian Bing sighed. "Is this the air of the motherland? My motherland, I'm afraid no one will admit that I belong to the Huarong Empire. " As a citizen of the Huarong Empire, he came back this time to represent the Ice Moon Empire to participate in the New Star Magician Tournament. To him, this was not considered an irony.
Walking on the streets, Nian Bing was looking for a hotel to stay in. There were still two months before the Magician Tournament. Although it was not close to the Capital City, he still had half a month to get there. Therefore, he had plenty of time. Nian Bing's mind was filled with magicians. He had absolute confidence in his culinary skills. On the way to the Huarong Empire, he had already decided to use the three months before the tournament as his journey to practice magic. Every time he arrived at a place, he would stop for at least a day to practice the various spells that he had thought about on the way. Especially the newly obtained Four Stars Sword, which was the most important part of his practice. Someone once said that warriors were the nemesis of magicians at close range. However, spatial magicians were the nemesis of all warriors. From this, one could see the status of spatial magic in the magic world of the continent. Having spatial magic was equivalent to having a protective talisman in front of warriors. Of course, spatial magicians also had their own weaknesses. Xun meant that their attack power was weaker. Spatial magicians were best at teleportation and imprisonment. Only when they reached the level of Archmage and above would their attacking power gradually show.
Suddenly, Nian Bing saw that the people on the streets were rushing in one direction, as if something had happened. He thought to himself, could it be that there was someone in Taru City who dared to make trouble? There couldn't be such a stupid person.
The people were surging. Pushed by the flow of people, Nian Bing did not study and moved in that direction. Curiously, he asked a passerby next to him, "What's going on over there? Why is everyone going there? " “
The passerby said, "Little brother, you must have just arrived here. This is a grand event that only happens once every few years! The Huarong Restaurant in the Taru City Square holds a cooking competition every three years. It just started today and will last for three days. These three days, our Taru City will celebrate. Famous chefs from all over the country will come here to participate in the challenge. This competition seems to be second only to the Master Chef Tournament in the cooking world. It's a pity not to watch it. Hurry up, otherwise you won't be able to see it. “
Nian Bing's heart moved. He had never heard Cha Ji mention this Huarong Cooking Competition. He thought that it had just started in recent years. However, since it was said to be second only to the Master Chef Tournament, it should be worth watching. Under the influence of curiosity, he hurriedly followed the flow of people to the Taru Square.
From afar, a huge square could be seen. This square was so big that it occupied one-third of the area of Taru City. It was originally a drill ground specially used for soldiers. But now it had become the venue for the cooking competition. The whole square was crowded with at least 100,000 people. A large number of guards were maintaining order in the square, so no trouble was caused.
In the center of the square, there was a round table with a height of nearly two zhang and a diameter of about fifteen zhang. The table was covered with a red carpet. Even from below, it was very eye-catching. What surprised Nian Bing the most was that this giant round table could rotate. Around the round table, there were a total of ten new stoves. Behind them, there were some necessary kitchen tools. Obviously, it could accommodate ten chefs at the same time for the competition.
Seeing such a huge cooking competition, Nian Bing couldn't help but feel his blood boiling. As a chef, it was a wonderful thing to be able to show his cooking skills on such a stage! No wonder his master had said that the Huarong Empire had the most outstanding chefs. It seemed that he was not wrong. Perhaps, only in the Huarong Empire would there be such a flourishing cooking world.
On both sides of the round table, there was a raised platform with a ceiling. There were chairs placed inside. Obviously, this was where the VIPs were seated.
At this time, a dozen people walked up to the giant round platform. From their clothes, it was easy to tell that they were all high-ranking officials of the Hua Rong Empire. One of them walked up to the round platform. This person was a little fat. He was wearing a red robe with golden edges, which made him look very gorgeous. His small eyes were shining, and he was holding a strange thing in his hand. There seemed to be a magical light shining on it.
"Everyone, quiet down. Please listen to me. " He did not shout at the top of his lungs, but his deep voice easily reached everyone's ears. Nian Bing was shocked. If it was a Swordsman level expert, he could naturally do this with his powerful Dou Qi. However, this person clearly didn't use any Dou Qi. In an instant, he understood. He secretly cried out in surprise because he found that the object in the person's hand was actually a magic loudspeaker. To be able to emit such a sound, the loudspeaker must be backed by an extremely precious magic gem. It seemed that the cost of this competition was not small!
The square gradually quieted down. The 5,000 soldiers in charge of maintaining order appeared to be in an orderly manner. The spears in their hands were pointed at the sky. They were watching the surrounding people at all times to prevent any changes.
Fatso looked down at the people below from the rotating platform. He smiled and said: "Hello everyone. I think that as long as you are a citizen of Taru City, you should recognize me. Yes, I am Hua Long Restaurant's Hua Fei Zi. You can call me Fatso. " “
"Fatso, Fatso, Fatso …" Suddenly, the audience cheered. Looking at the excited appearance of the commoners, it was clear that this Hua Long Restaurant's Hua Fei Zi was very popular in Taru City.
Nian Bing asked a cheering commoner next to her and found out that this Hua Fatso was the owner of the Hua Long Restaurant. He was an extremely easy-going person. Moreover, he was very charitable. Every year, he would donate 80% of the money earned by the Hua Long Restaurant to the government, the military, and the Huarong Empire's Magician's Union. Moreover, he would often introduce some delicious food for the commoners. Therefore, he had an excellent reputation in all aspects. He was even conferred the title of Viscount by His Majesty the King of the Huarong Empire. It was precisely because of him that this Hua Long Cooking Competition was more popular than the previous one. It was gradually catching up with the influence of the God of Cooking Competition.
Hua Fatso opened his mouth again, "Thank you for your support of this competition. This is already the fourth competition of the Hua Long Cooking Competition. Ai, I, Hua Fatso, am gradually getting old. However, our Huarong Empire's cooking industry is constantly flourishing. I am very honored to be able to see the current prosperity. Well, I don't want to talk nonsense. I don't want you to throw eggs at me. " As he spoke, he also made a funny expression, which immediately caused the people below to burst into laughter.
Hua Fatso smiled and waited for the people below to stop laughing. Only then did he say, "The rules are the same as before. The competition still has three stages: the preliminary round, the semi-final round, and the final round. The preliminary round will be held on the south side of the square, in our Hua Long Restaurant. It has already been ten days. In these ten days, we have selected over a hundred outstanding chefs. They will participate in the semi-final round here. I will choose three main ingredients in the semi-final round. These chefs will cook a variety of delicious dishes for everyone to judge. In the end, ten people will be selected to participate in the final round. The final round will be held the day after tomorrow. All the dishes made in this competition will be presented to the most respectable people of our Huarong Empire. That is, the Northeast Field Army that has always protected our homeland." When he said the last five words, he deliberately raised his voice. Suddenly, the whole scene showed an explosion of cheers. The sound waves surged, and even the people outside of Taru City could hear it. The enthusiasm of the atmosphere made Nian Bing very surprised.
