Chapter 435: Finally Got It

POSTED ON JULY 17, 2023 BY KEN

With the activation of the magic circle, the crimson fire jade and flame bead inlaid on the oven also emitted light and began to heat the oven by itself.

After Fang Linyan entered the hearth, he suddenly felt that the inside looked spacious, but in fact he had to walk forward stooping, otherwise he would bump his head.

He gritted his teeth and rushed in, then he grabbed the iron hook on which the roasted pig was hanging, and walked out.

At this time, a protective layer naturally appeared between Fang Linyan’s palm and the iron hook, preventing it from being burned.

But what Fang Linyan didn’t expect was that the iron hook was quite heavy. It seemed that it had to be activated by beastkin power.

I can’t even move it by dragging hard?

Fang Linyan was also a quick-witted person. If I can’t pull this iron hook, can’t I pull the pig?

So he pulled and directly dismembered the roasted pig.

Fortunately, this thing had been baked thoroughly, so it could be torn apart with 1 pull.

Under this pull, Zhou Zhu’s body wrapped inside was naturally exposed.

Fang Linyan grabbed his foot and rushed out.

While rushing out, he tore the normal roasted pig’s eye with his left hand.

As a result of such a delay, the 8 seconds duration of “[The Connection Between Two Capitals Is Unmatched]” ended just right.

Therefore, the moment Fang Linyan rushed out of the giant oven, he actually lost the protection of [The Connection Between Two Capitals Is Unmatched].

The sole of his right foot was burned immediately.

Fang Linyan’s eyes widened immediately, and he couldn’t help but let out a miserable scream.

The indescribable pain caused Fang Linyan to throw away Zhou Zhuo’s corpse and half of the roasted pig’s ear.

Then he squatted down and rubbed the burned right sole.

Not only that, Fang Linyan even felt an indescribable scorching heat penetrating from his sole into his body.

It caused indescribable pain to all limbs and bones.

Even though he had already left the range of the giant oven in time, his HP still dropped by more than half.

What’s worse, Fang Linyan found that even his maximum HP dropped drastically!!!

He already had a maximum HP of 170 points at this time, but just being burned for a few tenths of a second, his HP dropped to only 40 points, which was worse than an ordinary person.

Only then did he realize that this flame was actually a terrifying fire that could harm the soul. It seemed that it could only be used to roast pigs, but it was actually something that could harm the essence of life.

Fang Linyan didn’t know until a long time later when he was chatting with people, this was the famous Samadhi True Flame!

If he had really let Rubes transform into elite mechanical warrant officer and get it, it would have been burned inside in less than 3 seconds.

While baring his teeth in pain, Fang Linyan picked up the half-full water tank next to him and poured it on himself. Immediately, white steam rose from his body. He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He got the item, but the alarm was triggered.

Fang Linyan didn’t dare to stay for long, he picked up the chopping knife beside, chopped off Zhou Zhuo’s limping left leg, and threw it to Rubes.

Then, with the half pig’s ear in hand, he ran out of the inn’s gate with Rubes, plunged into the dense forest, and fled into the night…

After running for about 1km, [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] showed that there were no pursuers. Fang Linyan felt relieved. He immediately felt that his body was still extremely hot.

Then, he happened to find a small river in front of him, so he jumped into the small river directly, soaking his whole body in the cold water. He immediately felt extremely refreshed.

Surprisingly, steaming white mist appeared around his body as if he was soaking in a hot spring.

After soaking for about 5 minutes, he finally noticed that his maximum HP began to rise slowly, which meant that the heat poison raging in his body finally began to subside.

This made him finally relax. If he really had to return to the Space to recover from this state, it would be a real headache.

At this moment, Fang Linyan looked at the half-roasted pig’s ear that he was holding in his hand.

This thing was pulled from the only normal roast pig in the hearth. Zhu Xiaojian was roasting it for himself.

Although this guy had a slight anti-human tendency, if he were really forced to eat human meat like beastkin, he still couldn’t get over the hurdle in his heart and would vomit badly.

So this roasted pig that he carefully baked had nothing to do with human meat.

After watching the pig ear for mental preparation, Fang Linyan took a bite…

“Hmph? This taste!”

After Fang Linyan chewed it a few times, he found that it tasted surprisingly good!

It turned out that the pig ear was coated with special flour seasoning before roasting. The skin was crispy, tender and burnt.

After biting it, there was a crisp click sound, and a large amount of burnt powder bounced in his mouth. The aroma of oil filled his mouth instantly.

However, when he bit deeper, the inside was sticky, slippery and soft. This was the true meaning of “burnt on the outside and tender on the inside”.

In this case, Fang Linyan originally told himself to eat only 1 bite, but he ended up finishing it. He even couldn’t refrain from sucking his finger…

Then, Fang Linyan realized that he had actually obtained a buff called Delicious Roasted Pig.

The explanation was that he ate the high-grade food of silver story quality and felt refreshed, so his HP recovery speed increased by 50%. At the same time, he got 3 strength buff for 120 minutes.

This buff really stunned Fang Linyan. He never thought that food could actually increase basic attributes.

Although it was a temporary buff, it lasted for a long time. It was really of strategic significance. With these 3 attributes, it was very likely to turn non-crush damage into crush damage.

But this delicious Roasted Pig could reach the quality of silver story, except for Zhu Xiaojian’s own excellent cooking skills.

The oven that could produce the Samadhi True Flame also played a big role. It could improve the quality of the baked food.

At this time, a prompt also appeared on his retinas.

“Contestant ZB419, you successfully tasted the specialty roasted pig of Gao Family Inn.”

“You completed milestone: I’m Starving To Death.”

“You have obtained the title: Diner (can be upgraded). After equipping it, when you eat any food, its effect will be enhanced by 50%, and the duration of the buff will be increased by 50%.”

“Prompt: you can only get the corresponding buff if you equip this title before eating.”

“Prompt: The special effect of the Diner’s gain is also effective for negative effects, so please make sure the food is fresh before eating…”

After savoring the delicacy of the roasted pig, Fang Linyan found out a very interesting thing. That was, even though Zhou Zhuo’s left leg was already held by Rubes, relevant prompts still popped up from time to time:

“Contestant ZB419, you have found the target, Zhou Zhuo.”

“Please obtain the token in its body: White Bone Beastkin’s bone fragment.”

Under such circumstances, Fang Linyan suddenly had a bold idea…

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, then he opened the mission information bar again and browsed carefully a few times. After a while, he snapped his fingers and made up his mind,

“Only with courage can there be productivity! Alright, let’s do it this way!”

***

Koi panted heavily,

She only felt that the black night in front of her eyes seemed to be smeared with a layer of blood. She felt extreme pain in her temples like being pricked by a needle. There was also a nausea feeling in her chest.

This was the aftereffect of being hit by a beastkin’s knee on her head.

If she were in the hospital, the doctor would definitely give a diagnosis of a grade-three concussion.

However, compared to the injury to the left arm, the concussion was really nothing.

Koi’s left arm drooped limply. If someone could touch it, he would find that the left arm was as limp as noodles.

Because the upper arm bone had been shattered, broken into 40 pieces of large and small fragments, just like the condition after a piece of porcelain hit the ground and was run over by a steamroller.

This was the consequence of Koi being hit head-on by a female wild boar beastkin. It directly crippled her left hand and reduced her HP to less than 1/5!

At this time, while she was staggering in the forest, she already had strong regrets in her mind.

“I shouldn’t have listened to these bastards at that time… I should have left after killing that damned wolf beastkin.”

Koi couldn’t help cursing out loud.

TL: Being mentioned like this, seems like Koi is going to meet an acquaintance…
