Lin Nie didn't want Law to be her disciple. She just wanted Law to follow her for five or six years, and then he could learn things that countless people were envious of, including the formula of the Word of the Sea.
In other words, if Law agreed, the two would not become master and disciple, but Law could enjoy the benefits of being a disciple.
Faced with Lin Nie's sudden request, Law didn't know how to answer for a moment.
To be honest, Lin Nie took the initiative to mention this. For Law, it was like a pie falling from the sky. Logically speaking, he didn't need to hesitate at all.
However, Lin Nie's condition was the factor that made him hesitate.
He had to follow Lin Nie for at least five years, and he couldn't leave at will. This was equivalent to tying him up for at least five years of freedom.
Law was in a dilemma, and hesitation appeared on his face.
Lin Nie was expressionless, and the others watched quietly.
After a while, Law looked at Lin Nie and said, "Let me think about it."
Subconsciously, he didn't want to be tied up in one place for so long, and he couldn't refuse rashly. The key was that he was really tempted.
Hearing Law's answer, Lin Nie didn't care. She nodded slightly and said calmly, "Tomorrow, try my Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."
Hearing this, Luo showed a surprised expression and said, "Okay."
He told Lin Nie the method, and Lin Nie also watched him make it. It seemed that she had mastered the method of making Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
Maha's slightly opened eyes narrowed again. His original plan was to return to Withered Slaughter Mountain after dinner, but when he heard Lin Nie's words, he changed his mind.
He still wanted to freeload another meal. If possible, it would be best if he could pack a portion and bring it back to Withered Slaughter Mountain.
Law and Machi stayed and returned to the rooms arranged by the bean-faced man.
At night.
Lin Nie stayed in her room, sitting quietly on the hardwood bed.
Nitro came to her and asked, "Have you decided?"
Lin Nie slowly opened her eyes, looked at him, and responded in a low voice.
"Law may not agree," Nitro said seriously.
"I know," Lin Nie said.
Both of them were very clear on this point, and they were also very clear on the reason.
Nitro paused and said, "Five years might be a little long."
"I think it's too short," Lin Nie said.
Nitro shook his head slightly. He knew why Lin Nie wanted Law to stay with him for a few years. It was because … he didn't have to cook by himself.
If Lin Nie wants to, not to mention five years, even ten years may not be enough for Lin Nie to learn everything. How long to stay depends entirely on Lin Nie.
"If you don't relax the conditions, aren't you afraid that this good seedling will slip away?" Nitro reminded.
"It doesn't matter …" As Lin Nie spoke, he slowly closed his eyes. His entire body was emitting an aura that was past his prime.
Looking at Lin Nie's normal aura, Nitro was speechless.
Perhaps, other than the matters related to the Darkness Continent, Lin Nie didn't care about anything else.
.....
Humans had all kinds of talents. There were also differences in talent.
Some people were born with extraordinary talent. Over time, there would always be a saying that someone was born for a certain industry.
Lin Nie was such a person. Even though she had lived for a long time, it couldn't cover up her extremely dazzling talent.
She was like someone who was born for delicious food. Ever since she became a Food Hunter, everything, including her thoughts, became related to delicious food.
The Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Soup made by Law last night was a top-notch delicacy. It brought out the special flavors of all kinds of high-grade ingredients. However, in Lin Nie's eyes, it was still lacking.
Law … didn't coordinate the relationship between the eighteen ingredients. Or rather, he didn't integrate the characteristics of the eighteen ingredients.
Regarding this point, Lin Nie didn't have any difficulty. For example, her 'Word of the Sea' perfectly integrated the flavors of the one hundred and one ingredients.
Her will … was capable of doing that.
After knowing the recipe and seeing how Law made it, Lin Nie didn't need to try many times. The first time she tried, she delivered the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Soup to the waiting crowd.
When the lid was lifted, the fragrance was comparable to the one from last night.
"Will there be any difference?"
Law thought. Then, he scooped up the soup and drank a mouthful. His expression suddenly changed. Then, he looked at the soup in the bowl and remained silent.
Machi, who was sitting beside him, also tasted the soup. At first, she was stunned. Then, she quickly swallowed the soup. After a few mouthfuls, she suddenly looked at Law who was silent.
Yesterday, she said that Lin Nie's food was better than Law's Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Soup. That was the truth. As for this Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Soup, although the fragrance was similar to Law's Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Soup, the taste was better.
The difference wasn't very obvious. However, Machi could taste it, let alone Law.
It was undeniable that Lin Nie's Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Soup was better. Moreover … judging from the time, Lin Nie had only made it once.
In other words, this was the first time Lin Nie made Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Soup, but it was better than his.
Should he say that he was depressed or frustrated …?
Law thought in silence.
"Lin Nie, I want to pack a portion and take it back," Maha said to Lin Nie after eating.
Lin Nie refused, "No, the temperature will lose, and the taste will be taken away."
Maha's mouth opened slightly. After a moment of silence, he continued, "Give me a chance."
As he spoke, he looked at Lin Nie very seriously. Although his eyes were narrowed and no emotions could be seen, Lin Nie felt Maha's persistence.
She was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "Only this time."
Maha nodded. Although he was happy, his face was still stiff and he didn't show it.
Lin Nie turned her gaze and looked at Law, who was silent. Why did she make Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Soup? It was to increase the attractiveness of Law following her.
Now, it seemed that she was halfway to success.
.....
Demon Island, swamp area.
There were all kinds of dangerous creatures hidden in the sparse forest. The swamp, which was the most dangerous in the eyes of ordinary people, became the safest place here.
The members of the team who were defeated by the attack scattered and fled in all directions. Due to the loss of communication through the radio, everyone could not gather together for the time being after avoiding the insect tide.
"Beep, beep, beep …"
A sound that sounded like a ringtone hovered above the swamp. Hearing this sound, the humans hiding in the area chose to ignore it.
It was the sound of the bell fly, and this ringtone was only made when the bell fly wanted to search for food.
In a swamp, five people who were covered in mud and whose faces could not be seen were huddled in a simple pit made of stones. These five people were the remaining members of the team.
After the insect tide, no one knew how many people had successfully escaped.
"We can't wait any longer. We have to find a way to return to the port or go directly to the prison." Among the five people, someone suggested in a low voice.
They had been hiding here for two days and the dry food they carried with them had been eaten. If they continued to hide, they would only die a slow death.
Hearing this person's suggestion, the other four people had no objections. They all knew that they would die sooner or later if they continued to hide. Only by taking the risk and trying to move could they possibly get away from this damned place.
The five people had the same opinion and did what they thought. They got out of the pit and slowly got up to check the surrounding environment.
Chi!
At this moment, an almost imperceptible sound of something breaking through the air came from above.
The five people were unaware. Then, a bloody hole suddenly appeared in one of them's chest and he flew out. A lot of blood poured out in the air. Before he landed, he had already lost his breath.
Looking at this scene, the remaining four people were horrified.
On top of a tree not far away, a short-haired woman holding a black longbow revealed a dangerous smile. When she opened her mouth, rows of inhuman sharp teeth could be seen.
However, this woman was a genuine human. She was called Shark. That was her code name and also her name.
After killing one person with a single arrow, Shark blew a strange whistle out of habit. Then, he once again drew his bow and aimed at the remaining targets.
She did not have any arrows in her hand because her arrows were made of Qi …
Xiu Xiu …!
After four consecutive arrows, the five survivors who just came out of the pit died.
"Yay!"
When Shark saw that all five arrows had hit their target, he immediately waved his fist with a look of excitement.
Perhaps due to her excitement, the aura surrounding her body gradually turned black and white. Then, two figures wearing sheep masks appeared. They were black and white and they stood still beside her.
At the same time, figures gradually appeared in the forest. They walked towards the corpses. They searched the corpses for the radio and then decisively left.
