Quintera smelled the strong alcohol smell in the air and complained, "No. Drinking alone won't bring me any happiness." "Fine.
It didn't mind drinking. But what was the point of drinking without eating meat? "
Olessandro obviously understood Quintera's preferences and shrugged: "Then I can't help it. Although I have Earth Snake meat here, I don't know how to roast it. I'm the only one who can enjoy this wonderful Blue Noble Wine. " With that, Olessandro took a big gulp from the bottle. As the cold wine went down his stomach, his skin, which was already slightly red, turned completely red at this moment.
Just a single mouthful was enough to go up to his head and face, which was enough to show the power of the wine in the bottle.
Quintera gave Olessandro a cold glance and looked away. It didn't want to waste time on a drunkard who was about to pass out.
Compared to Olessandro, Quintera was more concerned about Laplace's group.
Quintera looked at the mist barrier. It had been an hour since Laplace and Angor entered the barrier. Quintera wondered what happened. Why was there no sound at all?
While Quintera was wondering, Angor was looking at Olessandro through the barrier.
"Wine … So that cloud is used to chill the wine," Angor muttered. "Using a gaseous creature that can control ice and snow as a refrigerator? That's so extravagant." "Fine."
When he first saw the floating cloud, he thought it was a servant bought by the Hundred Dragons Divine Kingdom. As it turned out, the cloud was only used as a refrigerator.
"Isn't the Iced Wine just a matter of a spell? Is it really worth it? Angor couldn't help but wonder.
"For wine lovers, a slight change in the process will result in a different taste," Laplace explained. Laplace said, "So, in your opinion, it might only take a spell to solve it, but for Olessandro, it's a necessary procedure. "Fine."
"… I don't get it." "Fine."
"You can think of it as a ritual. I don't know if the ritual can improve the taste, but it can improve his mental state when tasting wine." "Fine."
Angor pondered for a moment. "Sounds like a way to comfort himself. "Fine."
Laplace said calmly, "It has a certain psychological placebo effect, but not entirely. It's just like cooking gourmet food. Food cooked at low temperatures and high temperatures can be cooked, but the texture is different." "
Compared with food, Angor could understand a little better.
Indeed, controlling the fire would change the texture of the food. Angor learned this from Jon when he was young.
If wine was food, and ice was heat, then Olessandro's actions were understandable. But then again, how did Laplace know so much about wine and food?
Laplace said indifferently, "I've seen a lot. "
The Empty Mirror Ocean projected images of different worlds. Although not every image had traces of humans, as long as there were traces of humans or civilizations, they would basically be related to food.
Among the punctuality bodies created by Laplace, there were some who loved wine and food. However, these punctuality bodies did not succeed and were placed in the Memory Forest.
However, the memories of the time-body were also her memories, so it was normal for her to understand these things.
"Speaking of food, I remember you bought an item from the parrot. Don't you want to try it? Laplace looked at Angor and changed the topic.
Of course, he knew what Laplace was talking about — Granny Cocoa's box. Naturally, he had bought this Secret Instrument Box with the intention of using it.
He was confident in his Gourmet Cantrip, but neither Greya nor Toby seemed to like his Mana Bread.
So, he planned to give it a try, and when he saw Greya or Toby next time, he would surprise them with his delicious bread.
Of course, whether he would keep the box for himself or trade it with Greya was another story. Anyway, Angor did not plan to use the box in front of other people.
Earlier, when Luigi asked Angor to show off his cooking skills, Angor refused. But this time, it was Laplace who asked.
Angor was a little hesitant.
"Of course I have to try. But to make the box work, I need to provide a certain amount of wind, water, fire, and nature energy at the same time. I can't do that right now, so I can't make it. " Angor rejected the offer in a roundabout way.
Normally, Laplace would give up when she sensed Angor's resistance.
Laplace was about to do so, but when she saw Angor's hesitant look, she quickly changed her mind. "Don't worry. I can copy four elements at the same time. "Alright.
It's my first time using the box, so I need to be careful. It's better if all four of us do it together. I don't want to get caught — "
Before he could finish, four figures separated from Laplace's body.
The four figures looked exactly like Laplace. The only difference was the clothes they were wearing. A fiery short skirt that looked like it was covered in flames.
A fluffy skirt that was surrounded by wind and clouds.
It was a water-colored dress that made her look like a transparent glass. A grass skirt that was surrounded by vines and flowers.
The four Laplacas represented four different elements. They all stood behind the real Laplacas and looked at Angor with their clear eyes.
Angor's expression stiffened a little when he saw the four Laplaces.
He actually wanted to resist, but since Laplace had already mentioned four people, he really could not find a reason to refuse. He could only smile awkwardly and say, "Well, if that's the case, I'll give it a try. Alright. "
Laplace nodded noncommittally.
She would have changed the topic if Angor tried to resist again. But since Angor decided to give it a try, she might as well give it a try.
Angor slowly took out the box.
Next, he took out some consumables from his bracelet. There was only one gourmet cantrip he knew so far: Mana Bread. This cantrip didn't require consumables. It could be done by using mana as a medium. However, consumables could still be used to reduce mana consumption.
However, Mana Bread was a low-level cantrip that didn't cost much mana to begin with. The only reason why he chose to use consumables was to buy himself more time.
If Luigi could contact Laplace before Angor used the box, perhaps Angor could stop his cooking.
Of course, Angor wasn't going to put all his hope on buying time.
He took his time to prepare all kinds of "shaking before casting" because he wanted to "show off" his skills. Every time he made Mana Bread, he always used pure mana to make it, which was why Greya complained about its taste.
Maybe something went wrong during the process. As long as he was careful, slow down, and used more consumables, the final result would be amazing.
Anyway, Angor would never admit that he was a bad gourmet. The consumable he prepared was Mana Meat.
Greya gave it to him as a gift. It was a special ingredient that could keep growing on its own. It tasted bland, but it could fill one's stomach. If one ate it properly, they could never finish it. This alone was good enough.
In some worlds with terrible living conditions, it could even save an entire race. That was why it was so valuable.
Otherwise, Greya would never add Devilish Meat to Angor's collection.
He chose Mana Meat and turned it into Mana Bread because he believed that "food can never taste bad when turned into food".
Besides, Mana Meat didn't emit any energy ripples. It looked like a transparent jelly, so Laplace wouldn't pay attention to it. You'll really make delicious bread, Laplace thought.
Laplace wouldn't think about Mana Meat either.
It was obvious that Angor had considered every possible aspect of using the box. After all, for him, this was a major "battle" that was related to his reputation.
After slowly preparing all the consumables, he even wiped the outer shell of the secret instrument box. Then, he pretended to sense the situation inside the secret instrument box.
Five minutes later, there was still no news from Luigi, so he looked up and spoke to Laplace. "The preparations are done. The four elements can return to their positions now. Alright. "
Laplace nodded carelessly as he waved his hand. Immediately, four Laplaces in different outfits stood in four directions of the secret instrument box.
"Shall we begin?" Laplace asked. At the same time, the four Laplaces began to release the auras of different elements.
Angor cleared his throat. "Hold on." Laplace raised an eyebrow.
"It's my first attempt, so there might be some problems in getting used to it. For example, the output speed and energy level might cause problems in the final result. "Alright."
Angor was confident in himself, but he still decided to take precautions just in case. Laplace considered for a moment. "What kind of Gourmet Cantrip are you going to use?" "Alright."
Angor tilted his head slightly. "Let's use the most basic one first. Mana Bread." If Greya was here, she would probably roll her eyes at Angor's words. Like you know any other Gourmet Cantrip?
Laplace didn't know about Angor's Gourmet Cantrip, so he didn't think Angor would have any problem using the most basic one.
After all, no one knew the final result of the box. It would be bad if, as Parrot said, Angor created something too complicated and caused the box to "mutate".
Parrot also mentioned that the creator of the box was probably trying to create a "mutation" in the first place.
The mutation was the most important thing. Parrot.
However, this was only Parrot's wishful thinking.
If the box mutated into something like the stinky black mist that Parrot encountered, which could even taint souls, it would be terrible.
Better to start with Mana Bread, the most basic Mana Bread.
Generally speaking, such a low-level cantrip wouldn't cause any problems.
With this in mind, Laplace nodded to Angor in agreement. "Mana Bread is a good choice. I'll have them control the elements and try to keep the energy level of Mana Bread at the same level. Go ahead. " "Alright."
With Laplace's support, Angor finally decided to make his move.
According to the parrot's instructions, he first had Laplace of the Four Elements activate the box. As the elements were released, the four runes on the box lit up one after another.
The dancing orange flames, the tranquil blue water, the spiraling pink wind, and the pale green vines all took on a concrete form at this moment.
From the surface of the box, they leaped into the air.
This meant that the ritual of the box had been fully activated.
After making sure everything was correct, Angor finally stepped out. He held the Magic Meat in one hand and placed the other on the box's opening to construct the model of Mana Bread in his mind space.
While Angor was using the box, Olessandro was still enjoying his delicious Blue Noble Liquor. Across from him was Quintera, who was wearing an indifferent expression.
"Don't keep staring at the barrier. That one's going to get angry …" Olessandro said to Quintera and let out a long belch.
Olessandro only said this because Quintera had been staring at the barrier. They couldn't see what was going on inside the barrier, but Laplace and the others couldn't.
If Laplace got angry because of Quintera's stare, they couldn't afford it. Quintera thought for a moment and did not refute, retracting his gaze.
However, not long after it withdrew its gaze, it suddenly turned its head to look at the barrier again. "What's wrong?" Olessandro looked at Quintera in confusion.
Quintera hesitated for a moment and said, "Just now, I seemed to have felt the fluctuation of elemental energy …"
"What's the big deal about elemental energy fluctuations? Didn't Frost Cloud, who gave me the liquor, have something like that too? " Olessandro grumbled.
Quintera shook its head. "No. I'm feeling uneasy." "Uneasy? What's wrong? " Quintera asked.
Quintera couldn't put his finger on it. He only felt an uneasy feeling in his mind. It felt like something bad was about to happen.
And according to Quintera's judgment, the source of this omen came from the barrier that could not be seen through. But the one behind the barrier was that existence … With her overseeing the situation, how could anything bad happen?
"Maybe it's just an illusion?" Quintera tried to comfort himself.
If Olessandro wasn't drinking, he might be able to give a more rational opinion. But he was already dizzy. When he heard Quintera saying "just an illusion", he followed suit. "It must be an illusion. Don't overthink it. I'll find someone from the Crystaleye Clan later to cook some Earth Snake meat for you. I heard they have a secret recipe that can —"
Before Olshanzhuo could finish his sentence, he suddenly saw a gap in the barrier not too far away. Laplace and Angor showed up at the opening.
However, in less than half a second, the two of them disappeared.
Then, a wave of rolling black mist gushed out of the opened gap …
