The clanking of chopsticks made Da Zi raise its head. After confirming the direction, it quickly crawled over.
Da Zi glanced at the black colloid in the pot. Its tentacles shook, but it didn't eat it.
Because the smell was indeed unpleasant, and it didn't look good.
After smelling it twice, Da Zi secretly released its claws from the edge of the pot and turned around with a look of disgust. "It's poisonous, it's poisonous …"
Gao Peng's face darkened. This pot was made with poisonous ingredients, so it had to be poisonous.
But you, a poison-type familiar, told me that you were afraid of poison. I'm afraid you've brought shame to all poison-type familiars.
"Come back and eat it. You can evolve if you eat it. If you don't eat it, how can you become stronger?" Gao Peng said seriously.
Looking at the bottom of the pot that had been eaten clean, Gao Peng revealed a gratified smile.
After eating the recipe, Da Zi was a little dispirited. It quietly hid in a corner and curled up into a ball.
…
In a quiet valley at the edge of the Black Nightmare Forest, a few giant gray spiders slowly crawled out of a dark cave. Their scarlet eyes flickered as they gently sniffed the air around them.
Not far away, a King Kong Pangolin emerged from the dense bushes. Its golden scales sparkled under the sunlight. The spider opened its mouth and spat out a large amount of thick gray liquid. The thick liquid sprayed all over the leaves, tree trunks, and grass.
When it came into contact with the air, the thick gray liquid quickly solidified, losing its viscosity and becoming tough and strong. The King Kong Pangolin struggled outwards. Its long white ribbon turned into sticky silk, like half-wet chewing gum being pulled forcefully by someone.
The King Kong Pangolin hissed softly. The golden scales on its body stood up like countless sharp blades. Its entire body curled into a ball, turning into a "ball."
Its body rotated, and the blade-like scales formed a whirlwind of blades.
The spider silk could effectively restrain brute force, but it didn't have much resistance against such sharp weapons.
Strands of spider silk were cut off. Just as the King Kong Pangolin was about to break free, another large ball of gray liquid fell from the sky.
More and more mucus appeared, becoming denser and denser. Finally, it turned into a large white cocoon.
No matter how hard the King Kong Pangolin struggled, it was unable to break free from the endless spider webs. Its entire body was firmly fixed to the ground. In the end, it lay on the ground, exhausted. It looked on in despair as the grey-white spider came closer and closer.
In that cave, a steady stream of gray spiders crawled out, as if it was a spider's nest.
.....
"Old Chen, as usual, give me 15 catties of Yin cedar needles." Gao Peng walked into the store. Today was Saturday, and he had just gotten off work from the studio. He was too lazy to ask others to deliver the goods to his door, so he planned to buy them in the downtown store and take them back.
"Fifteen kilograms?" The one that Gao Peng called Old Chen was a tall, dark, and skinny young man. He looked a little mature, and many of the regulars here were used to calling him Old Chen.
"Boss Gao, I'm sorry, but we only have five pounds of Yin Cedar needles left in our shop today." Old Chen looked troubled. "You see …"
Gao Peng was stunned. He waved his hand and said, "Then pack them all up. Five pounds it is."
After that, Gao Peng went to a few other nearby stores. In the end, he found that Yin Cedar needles had been out of stock for a few days. He remembered that Yin Cedar needles were not very common, but they were not rare either.
If these stores were out of stock, then there would not be many Yin Cedar needles in the entire Chang 'an City. This was because the stores in the city center had the most supply.
Because of Gao Peng's studio, he was more familiar with the surrounding stores.
One of the store owners said kindly, "It's not just Yin Cedar needles. There are a few other materials that have been out of stock recently."
"Ah? What's wrong? "Gao Peng was puzzled.
Although there was more than one way to reach the Epic level, Dumb had already eaten more than two hundred pounds of Yin Cedar needles. If he wanted to change to another method, it would be more troublesome.
"The Yin Cedar needles and a few other materials in our store are all purchased from a private garden outside Chang 'an City. That garden not only has Yin Cedar needles, but also many other materials. Because it's cheap, good, and abundant, it's not just us. Many stores in Chang 'an City also purchase materials from that garden. "
The owner took a puff of his cigarette and panted. "Maybe the news has been blocked. That garden is built around the Dark Ember Forest. A week ago, a group of Wicked Spiders appeared out of nowhere. Not only did they eat most of the Yin plants in the garden, they also ate all the monsters in the surrounding forest. I heard that if you didn't run fast enough, your whole family would have become food for the Wicked Spiders. Now that the area where the garden is located has been sealed off by the army, I'm afraid that you won't be able to buy Yin Cedar needles for a while."
"Wicked Spiders …" Gao Peng racked his brain but could not think of any kind of spider that was a Wicked Spiders.
"Wicked Spiders are the nickname we gave the spider. The officials created a special academic name for it. I think it's called something like the Brutal Gray Devil Spider." The owner took a deep breath, finished the cigarette in his hand, and stepped on it to extinguish it. At that moment, a new customer came into the store. The owner smiled apologetically at Gao Peng and went to serve the new customer. "If there's anything else you need, you can take a look around the store."
Gao Peng looked at the owner, who was introducing the materials to the customer, and turned to look at the busy street. It was rush hour, and the road was congested as usual. Through the car windows, he could see some drivers playing with their familiars in the traffic jam.
Cheerful voices came from the car windows. Under the reinforced concrete sky, people and familiars outlined a harmonious scene.
Because Yin Cedar Needles were high-grade food for Yin-type monsters, there was a high demand for them. After Gao Peng heard the news, he did not dare to delay. He hurried to shop around the city while there was still time and bought all the Yin Cedar Needles. In the end, he bought more than 50 kilograms, but there were not many Yin Cedar Needles left in the city.
After that, he issued a short-term mission to the Monster Hunting Association. He bought 300 kilograms of Yin Cedar Needles for 1,100 Alliance Dollars per kilogram.
There were also Yin Cedar Needles in the wild, but they were not distributed evenly and were scarce. It would take a lot of time and energy to complete the mission.
If he could do something with money, there was no need to take the risk of going to the wild.
When he got home, Gao Peng looked up the news online: Brutal Gray Devil Spider.
He typed in these five keywords, and a row of news articles refreshed from top to bottom.
"Shocking! It's a super brutal and terrifying spider! "
"Citizen Mr. Zhang's Own Words: The Most Thrilling Night, Almost Became the Spider's Food."
