Nitro, the president of the Hunters' Association, Maha, the old monster who beat up the enemy, and Lin Nie, the veteran Food Hunter.
In front of these three people, whether in terms of qualifications, experience, or strength, Law was like a baby waiting to be fed. They were incomparable identities.
In a sense, it was a rare honor to be received by these three old monsters.
After all, these three people didn't gather many times, and even if it was rare for them to gather, there would never be outsiders.
This time was an exception. There was an extra set of bowls, chopsticks, and delicacies in their seats.
After Law opened the door and walked in, the three of them restrained their aura, and the bean-faced man completed the task of bringing Law over, so he consciously left the room and walked towards Machi outside the corridor.
From the moment he could not walk, Machi lost the right to enter the room.
The bean-faced man had been with President Nitro for so many years, so he knew what to do.
Inside the room, Nitro looked at Law and said, "Come and sit down."
Law took off his shoes, stepped on the platform, and sat down around the empty seat at the short table. Then he looked at the simple meal for four people on the table in silence.
This was a short square table, just enough for four people. The food on the table was very simple. There were six pieces of dried radish, and there were twenty-one bean sprouts that could be counted at a glance.
Law couldn't see through these exquisite but shabby side dishes for the time being, but he was almost fascinated by the mellow smell of this small dish of seasoning at a close distance.
The color of the seasoning was dark, and there was an obvious brownish-red color in the black, and there was a little white light flashing inside.
What was that white light as fine as dust?
Law thought in confusion.
Moreover, the food was covered with a layer of warm, watery air, forming a similar effect of insulation or freshness. The source of this air was … Lin Nie.
After Law took his seat, Nitro began to introduce Maha and Lin Nie.
Law's attention was taken away from the seasoning. After learning Maha's identity, his heart suddenly froze.
Maha narrowed his eyes and remained silent. Lin Nie's eyes were open, but they were lifeless. No one knew where his gaze landed.
After Nitro introduced the three of them to each other, he said seriously: "Luo, you're in luck today. These are good things that Lin Nie spent two years to get."
"I don't mean to offend you, but you spent two years on such a small thing …?" Luo Xian glanced at Nitro and then looked at Lin Nie. Lin Nie didn't react at all.
Since the person involved didn't explain, Nitro naturally wouldn't say anything. He just raised his chopsticks and said, "You'll know once you try the taste. Only the delicacies prepared by Lin Nie can make Maha make a special trip."
Maha slowly picked up his chopsticks. Just as Nitro had said, he rarely went out unless he had a difficult mission.
Since he had made the trip without a commission, it was only natural that this seemingly shabby meal was sufficiently attractive to him.
Nowadays, who else could taste Lin Nie's craftsmanship except for these few old fellows?
Moreover, this was the result of two years of work by the most experienced food hunter. It was definitely something that couldn't be bought with wealth.
Regarding Nitro's exaggerated statement, Law retained his trust for the time being.
Seeing that everyone was about to start eating, Lin Nie silently removed the gas that covered the food.
Maha and Nitro picked up a piece of snow-white dried radish with a hint of dark yellow and threw it into their mouths to chew carefully. While their eyes lit up, they resisted the urge to take big bites of the rice and only fiddled with a small mouthful of rice.
There was no more than four bowls of rice. In order to match these two exquisite side dishes properly, they couldn't eat big mouthfuls of rice.
Lin Nie didn't move her mouth immediately. She put her hands together and held her chopsticks horizontally between her fingers. Her mouth moved slightly as she muttered something silently.
When Law saw Maha and Nitro start to move their chopsticks, he also picked up a piece of radish and threw it into his mouth.
When his tongue and teeth touched the dried radish, Law's expression immediately changed.
"It's just a small piece of dried radish. How can the taste be so rich?"
Before Law swallowed the dried radish, he quickly took a small bite of rice.
"Delicious!"
Law chewed the rice and dried radish in his mouth before he was willing to swallow them.
And bean sprouts …!
The unusual taste surprised Law. He didn't even look at the hint given by the white smoke font. Instead, he stared at the bean sprouts in the small plate.
The size of the bean sprouts was the same as usual, but the appearance was crystal clear, like white jade. Upon closer inspection, one could see that there were traces of snow on the small bean sprouts that were not easy to see clearly.
Law picked up a bean sprout and ate it. It was cold and crisp. It tasted as sweet as a mountain spring.
Although the texture and taste were not ordinary, it was too light compared with the dried radish that contained all kinds of flavors.
"Dong."
Suddenly, there was a soft sound on the table.
Law looked in the direction of the sound, but it was Lin Nie who tapped the table with his finger.
When he saw Law looking over, Lin Nie held his chopsticks and pointed to the small amount of seasoning, and said calmly: "Dip."
This was the first word Lin Nie said since Law entered the room.
Law immediately understood. He picked up another bean sprout, dipped it in the seasoning, and then put it in his mouth to chew. When the taste buds received the taste, Law was stunned.
"The taste of seafood? And the level is very complicated, like the taste of a lot of seafood fused together. "
"This seasoning …"
After dipping it in the seasoning, Law tasted a rich umami taste, which was also the unique flavor of deep-sea creatures and full of vitality.
Whether it was the dried radish or the seasoning, they all contained all kinds of flavors, which immediately reminded Law of Buddha Jumps Over The Wall, but after careful consideration, it was obviously different from Buddha Jumps Over The Wall.
The flavors contained in the dried radish and the seasoning were clearly layered, but they were closely related, like a finely constructed machine. The parts inside did not cause conflict, but could be perfectly integrated together.
Law had no time to pay attention to the prompt of the white smoke font, and he had no time to care about Lin Nie's gaze. He moved his chopsticks faster and faster, but his chewing speed was getting slower and slower.
It was painful …
The amount of dried radish and bean sprout was very small, and the seasoning was also pitifully small. Seeing that the more he ate, the less he ate, the more he felt reluctant to eat.
It was really the work of a senior food hunter. It looked so shabby, but it had such a rich taste.
Law left three pieces of dried radish, ten bean sprouts, half a plate of seasoning, half a bowl of rice and soup, and put down his chopsticks.
It was the first time he had eaten such delicious food. He wanted to sweep the rest, but he thought of Machi who came with him. He resisted the impulse from the appetite and put down his chopsticks.
The other half was for Machi.
Lin Nie was the last to move her chopsticks, but she ate faster than anyone else. When Law put down his chopsticks, she had eaten all the delicacies in front of her.
After seeing Law put down his chopsticks, Lin Nie's reaction was very dull.
She spent two years preparing this table of food, which involved more than a hundred kinds of ingredients. To put it more broadly, the only people in the world who could eat this table of food were Law and them.
However, Law stopped eating halfway. On the surface, it was a great disrespect to her.
If Lin Nie was young and impetuous, she would have flipped the table no matter what. She would not ask Law why he put down his chopsticks and beat him up first.
However, she was old, and her state of mind was like a plant. How could she get angry because of this kind of thing?
Lin Nie didn't know how long she could live, maybe ten years or even twenty years.
She was different from Maha and Nitro. She had no children, but some things still had to be passed down, but she hadn't found a suitable candidate yet.
In fact, she was old. She would rather sit quietly for ten years than go outside. Naturally, she couldn't get in touch with the younger generation who were full of vitality.
The reason why she came today was that she wanted to share the food with Nitro and the others. On the other hand, it was because of Nitro's instigation.
Nitro recommended Law to her, a young man who might be suitable for inheritance.
If the inheritance relationship was successfully established, then she wanted Law to stay by her side for at least five years.
