Flatbread!
These two words sounded like thunder from the highest of the heavens, fiercely hitting all of the Dwarves' ears and hearts. Dilo and Dita trembled, and countless Dwarves were completely dumbfounded. Their gazes seemed to be attracted to the flatbread in Ling Chen's hands, and their gazes became as intense as flames. It was as if they were looking at a legendary holy object. Ling Chen slightly tilted his head, and not only did he see countless trembling gazes, but he also saw countless drool flowing out of their mouths …
Ling Chen instantly felt that his outlook on life and the world had been severely challenged.
"Flatbread … Flatbread … Flatbread!!"
"This shape that makes people tremble, this position that makes people feel like they're going to heaven … This is only a legendary food, flatbread!!"
"Flatbread … flatbread! I never thought that I would be able to see a legendary flatbread in my lifetime … wuuu … if I could have a bite of flatbread, even if I had to immediately die, I would be willing! "
"Flatbread … Flatbread!!"
… …
… …
After being dumbfounded for a while, the Dwarves started to become even more rowdy. More than half of the Dwarves swallowed their saliva as tears flowed down their faces. Some Dwarves even put their hands in their mouths and bit down. Their eyes widened as they stared at the flatbread in Ling Chen's hands, imagining themselves biting into that flatbread.
Dilo, who had asked for food, stood there in a daze for a long time. He thought that he was dreaming, and after confirming that the flatbread in front of him was real, he stretched out his trembling hand to touch it. However, a pair of hands suddenly reached out and snatched the flatbread away.
Dilo's hands trembled as he carefully held the flatbread in front of his chest. He had never experienced this before, and the taste of the flatbread had become much stronger, causing him to almost float. It took him a great deal of effort to swallow his saliva, and he suppressed the urge to take a bite. He turned around and excitedly yelled, "Quiet! Quiet! Everyone calm down … that's right! This is indeed the legendary food … flatbread! It's a genuine flatbread! It exudes a smell that only heaven can have, and its fragrance can make our souls go crazy uncontrollably … "
The corner of Ling Chen's mouth twitched violently. He forcefully held back the mouthful of blood that was about to spurt out of his throat.
"I didn't expect that in our lifetime, we would be fortunate enough to see the legendary food that countless ancestors talked about before they died. Although this flatbread is food given to my son by our human friend, I don't think such a legendary food like flatbread should be enjoyed by my son alone … Only the dwarves with the highest reputation and the greatest contributions have the right to enjoy it! So, I think … I want to divide this flatbread into 200 portions! To 200 dwarves who have made the greatest contribution to our race … "
The flatbread … divided into two hundred portions … What the hell!
Ling Chen was in a complete mess … Although I know you dwarves lack food too much! However, it shouldn't be to this extent! It was just a piece of flatbread! It was the most ordinary flatbread in the Forgotten Continent that didn't have any special taste at all!
"Little master, your reaction is quite amusing." Qi Yue giggled, then softly said, "Little master, do you remember that I told you before that the Dwarves have 2 hobbies? I told you that one of them is forging materials … does little master know what the other is?"
"… …"
"It's food. The Dwarves' desire for food is not inferior to their desire for high quality materials. Tasting delicious food and creating exquisite creations are the 2 greatest pleasures that the Dwarves have in their lives. However, the world that they live in makes it impossible for them to taste delicious food. They can't even eat the most ordinary food in the human world. Now that a flatbread has appeared, it's normal for them to react like this. "
Forging materials and food were the 2 hobbies of the Dwarves. Forging was something that was publicly acknowledged, but food … this was just a flatbread; how could it be considered food?
After Dilo finished yelling, not a single Dwarf responded. All of the Dwarves passionately stared at the flatbread in Dilo's arms with looks of desire and jealousy. That's right, not a single Dwarf responded … because all of the Dwarves wanted to have a bite … even if it was just a small bite … even a small crumb would do.
"Err … Chief Dilo, can I say a few words?" Ling Chen asked as he stood next to Dilo.
The Dwarves' attention immediately returned to Ling Chen. After all, this flatbread was taken out by Ling Chen. Dilo stared in shock for a moment before remembering that Ling Chen was here. He hurriedly handed the flatbread to Ling Chen as he said, "I'm very sorry, little brother. I was so excited that I forgot that this flatbread belongs to you, and I don't have the right to take it … that's right, even in the outside world, this kind of legendary delicacy would be a holy item. Without your permission, how could we take it for ourselves? "
The corners of Ling Chen's eyes twitched … in the outside world, if this flatbread was thrown on the ground, no one would pick it up. He calmed himself down and didn't take the flatbread from Dilo's hands as he calmly said, "Chief Dilo, it seems that you all really like flatbread … oh, that's right, I remember you told me before that the Dwarf Clan still has around 30,000 Dwarves, right?"
"Err, that's right. Right now, we have 29,632 Dwarves, which is close to 30,000," Dilo replied, wondering why Ling Chen had asked such a question.
"Alright then." Ling Chen nodded, "Since my Dwarf friends like flatbread so much, then … I'll go back to the human world and bring back a flatbread for all of my Dwarf friends. That way, everyone won't have to worry about how to distribute it, and everyone will be able to eat it."
The flatbread in Dilo's hands fell to the ground, causing the entire Dwarf Clan to fall silent.
After being dumbfounded for half a second, Dwarf Chief Dilo quickly picked up the flatbread and patted the dust off it. He suddenly raised his head and stuttered, "Y-Y-Y-Y-You … What did you just say? Every … every … Every … Dwarf … A flatbread? "
"That's right!" Ling Chen nodded. The dumbfounded Dwarf Clan immediately fell into chaos.
"This, this, this, this … but we have around 30,000 Dwarves … one flatbread for every Dwarf … that's 30,000 … 30,000. How could we have so much of this legendary food? This, this … I, I … but … "Dwarf Chief Dilo was completely dumbfounded by Ling Chen's words, and couldn't even say a complete sentence. Just like all of the other Dwarves, they couldn't believe Ling Chen's words … this was flatbread! The legendary flatbread! Countless ancestors had never seen one in their entire lives. For such food to appear, it was already a holy item. 30,000 … how was that possible?! How was it possible for everyone to eat such food?
Even if he was a deity! It was impossible for him to have so many flatbreads!
Ling Chen scratched his nose and helplessly said, "Don't worry, I won't lie to you. How about this, I'll leave this place now and go back to get the flatbread. When the time comes, everyone will have a piece so that every dwarf friend can eat it. It's just that the human's main city is very far from here, so it'll take me about a day to get back. " He paused and looked at Dilo and Dita as he said, "Before this, I already gave Chiyang Xuanjin and the Spatial Stone to Elder Dilo and Chief Dita. If I don't bring back enough flatbread and lie to you, then Chiyang Xuanjin and the Spatial Stone will belong to you, and you won't have to return them to me. If I bring back enough flatbread … hmm … that means I didn't lie to you, and I can still be your friend."
"If … if there can really be so many flatbread. Then … then you'll be our Dwarf Clan's great benefactor! "Elder Dilo said excitedly. He started to believe that what Ling Chen had said was true.
The dwarves also became restless, shouting wildly. Their eyes flashed with desire and fanaticism, and their mouths released shouts and saliva.
"Elder Dita, after I go back to the outside world, I hope you can help me make 500 Spatial Stones," Ling Chen said.
"No problem! I can't wait to start! "Elder Dita said excitedly.
Very quickly, Ling Chen left under the gazes of all of the Dwarves. After leaving the Dwarf Clan's territory, Ling Chen took out a teleport scroll and returned to the Azure Dragon City. He changed into a set of ordinary clothes and went to the pawn shop to clear out some of the unimportant things in his bag. After making some space, he went to the food plaza.
"Hello, can I trouble you to give me 30,000 flatbread?" Ling Chen said as he walked over to the fat chef.
Clang! The fat chef's ladle fell to the ground.
"T-t-t-t-t-how much?!"
"30,000, is there a problem?" Ling Chen asked calmly as he took out 150,000 gold coins. The flatbread he had bought was naturally bigger than normal flatbread, and a single one was enough to fill an adult's stomach. As such, it was quite expensive, costing 5 gold coins each.
"N-no problem." After confirming that he hadn't heard wrongly, the fat chef's forehead became covered with cold sweat, and he immediately started to take out more flatbread for Ling Chen … during the entire process, he looked at Ling Chen as if he was looking at a monster. Spending 100,000 gold coins to buy 30,000 flatbread? This wasn't a rich psychopath! This was a rich psychopath!
After completing the transaction, the 30,000 flatbread took up 150 slots of storage space, filling Ling Chen's bag to the brim.
The food plaza was naturally filled with delicacies that couldn't be found in the real world. However, the flatbread naturally couldn't even be considered delicacies. However, he only bought flatbread, and didn't plan on buying any real delicacies for the Dwarves. At least, not now.
Before leaving, he thought for a moment before pointing at the large pot of seafood soup. "Can I take this soup to go?"
"Oh … sure."
"Give me a pot."
"…"
Thus, Ling Chen brought 30,000 flatbread and a large pot of seafood soup back to Peace Town, and from there, he headed towards the Nameless Ridge.
Ten or so hours later, Ling Chen returned to the Nameless Ridge, and once again entered the Dwarf Clan's hideout.
