Thankfully, now that Space No. 2 was bigger, Luke had more tricks up his sleeve.
He had stored a lot of large ice blocks in Space 1 before. Now, he had transferred them to an empty "cell" in Space 2 to form an artificial cold storage.
After throwing the king crabs in, the robots stabbed them to death one by one and threw them into a pile.
Every few minutes, Luke would transfer the dead king crabs back to Space 1 to ensure that they wouldn't go bad.
This sort of automatic operation was a little tiring, but it was fun once in a while, and it also protected the natural environment at the bottom of the sea.
All humans and other marine animals should be grateful to him.
After all, king crabs were similar to Texas wild boars, the carp of the Great Lakes, and Australian rabbits and camels.
Once there were no natural enemies in the environment, it was easy for these creatures to reproduce. If there were too many of them, money wouldn't be enough to kill them.
Texas ranchers flew helicopters and strafed wild boars with rifles. There were ten thousand people hunting fish in the Great Lakes.
Australia had fought a century-long war with rabbits, and now spent millions of dollars every few days to send people to kill an excessive number of wild camels to relieve environmental pressure.
So, even if Luke caught all the king crabs here, the other species would be able to make up for it in a few years.
There were very few marine creatures that could eat king crabs to begin with. If they didn't fight in groups, who knew who would eat who?
With the intention of protecting nature, Luke swam through the king crabs with Selina and picked out the big ones to put in his space.
He didn't dare think about collecting them all.
No matter how high his Mental Strength was or how fast his self-healing ability was, collecting a million king crabs would still tire him to death.
Hearing that, Selina also took out a folding spear and stabbed a king crab that passed by.
After a round, she realized that there were almost no other marine creatures at the bottom of the sea where the king crabs had passed.
Fish could still run, but a lot of other things were eaten before they could run.
In the end, they arrived at a dark trench at the bottom of the sea.
Even with Luke's detection methods, he didn't know how deep the trench was.
But next to Cape Horn a few days ago was the famous Drake Strait, which had a minimum depth of 2,800 meters and a maximum depth of 5,800 meters.
Even if the trench was two to three thousand meters deep, it was nothing.
At this point, Luke was ready to go back.
Selina suddenly said, "Look over there. It's huge."
Luke turned his head and looked in the direction she was pointing, only to see a gigantic king crab showing off near the trench several hundred meters away.
He smacked his lips, "This … is probably enough for the three of us to have a meal."
Selina was excited. "Then we'll eat it today."
As she spoke, she rushed forward and pierced the overlord of the crab with her spear. Then, she lifted it up and floated it to the surface of the sea.
Amused, Luke floated up as well.
On the seabed, the anxious Selina brought out a large torrent of water and swept up a large number of King Crabs into the pitch-black trench nearby, disappearing.
Farther out on the sea, four big and one small killer whale families were happily hunting seals.
Everything was so harmonious.
…
A moment later, an ice house with an ice wall and an optical camouflage screen was erected on the ice surface.
Luke and Selina started cooking.
For those who had an arc reactor, ordinary energy had never been a problem.
The nuclear-powered induction cooker had long been invented by the DIY expert Lu Mou, but he hadn't had a chance to use it.
It wasn't difficult to increase the size of the stove and put a bigger iron basin in it.
An ice house that was five meters long, wide, and tall could fit this "kitchenware."
The king crab's meat was mainly the legs and the parts where the legs were connected to the body. Not only was the shell too big, but the crab roe and crab paste inside could easily be contaminated with heavy metals, so it was better to just throw them away.
Even so, the six legs weighed more than fifty kilograms, so they could only break off three of them and steam them in a big basin.
Steam rose, and the brownish-black crab legs turned an alluring orange.
Gold Nugget already had no time to lick its saliva, and simply let it drip onto the ice.
Thankfully, Selina had expected this, and arranged for the guy to sit across from them.
Of course, she couldn't stop swallowing. This was a super king crab that didn't cost money. Even the rich in America couldn't afford it.
Luke didn't torture the two of them. When he felt that it was enough, he grabbed a crab leg from the basket, one for each of them, and stuffed the remaining three crab legs in to steam.
He and Selina had about the same amount of legs, but Gold Nugget could definitely eat all six legs, and it would be very fast.
Sure enough, Gold Nugget stared at him eagerly with its beady eyes.
Selina had said that the main course had to be eaten together.
Luke took out a few bottles of soy sauce and cola from his inventory and poured them into a big basin for Gold Nugget.
Then, he took out some of the dipping sauces that he and Selina had prepared in his inventory. There was a mix of ginger, white vinegar, sesame oil, and soy sauce, which was the most common in China, as well as a sweet and sour American dip, and a spicy dip for when they were having a good meal.
Picking up the cooked crab legs, he gave the order. "Okay, let's eat."
There was the sound of people wolfing down their food. For a few minutes, only Selina's exclamations of satisfaction and Luke's casual agreement could be heard.
Gold Nugget's mouth was too busy, and there were still three legs steaming in the basin.
Half an hour later, Luke and Selina leaned against the ice sofa side by side and chatted idly as they looked at the deep blue sea and the iceberg through the vent. Every now and then, they would pull out crab meat and eat it with the spicy dip.
Luke had used a traditional China dip earlier, while Selina used the sweet and sour American dip. They finished the crab leg in one go.
At that moment, when they were 70% full, they shared the third crab leg and slowly dipped it in the spicy dip.
Gold Nugget, on the other hand, had three basins in front of it, and ate the three dips in turn.
Two legs had been used up before the soy sauce and cola, and it was now eating the third crab leg.
There were too many choices today, and the dog head was a little busy.
Before Selina finished enjoying the crab meat, she thought of the fish again. "Can't we find a fish to eat?"
Luke said helplessly, "Killer whales are so cute. Why do we eat them?"
Selina nodded regretfully. "Curious, I guess."
Luke chuckled. "Why don't you try the seal meat?"
Looking at the half of the seal meat in a corner, Selina shook her head decisively. "Leave it for Gold Nugget."
Looking at Luke's expression, she was sure that there was something wrong with the seal meat.
Luke didn't think much of it and put the half of the seal meat in his inventory.
This time, he didn't hide the matter of his inventory from Selina, and only said that it was his superpower.
It wasn't a lie. Wasn't Daddy System his superpower?
Selina and Gold Nugget were surprised, but not surprised.
It was hard to survive in this world without some superpowers.
What the two gluttons were most happy about … was that with Luke in the future, they wouldn't have to worry about going hungry no matter where they went.
In this beautiful atmosphere, a black and white figure jumped out of the sea and let out anxious whimpers.
Gold Nugget turned its head in astonishment. What the hell was that? Stealing my special line?
