maid war

Chapter 8 The Black Belly Girl

If the one who got lost was a weak NPC, then it would be really troublesome, but if the one who got lost was a high-level NPC, how could he be worthy of his status as a player if he didn't take her to the dungeon as a free thug?If you're lucky, you might be able to recruit her as your follower!Thinking of this, a bright smile appeared on Green's face.

Green opened the map and took a look, took a few steps to the left, and turned to greet the girl: "Come with me, there is a safe spot over there."

Under the instructions of the system map, Green quickly took the girl to a safe spot in the forest - an altar of the forest goddess.

Green glanced at the girl: "It's getting dark now, let's spend the night here tonight." After speaking, Green sat on the ground and motioned to the girl that the two of them would rest here tonight.

The girl looked up at the sky.The sun is no longer visible, and Martha, the silver moon, has appeared in the sky.Seeing such a scene, there seemed to be a trace of sadness on the girl's face.

While the girl was in a daze, Green had already cleaned up the altar quickly.

Seeing the faint green radiance of the holy emblem on the altar, Green finally breathed a sigh of relief—the altar is still in operation.

"May all trees be evergreen." Green casually said a prayer of the forest goddess in the game.

In the world of Io, the wild at night is much more dangerous than during the day. All kinds of snakes, ants, mosquitoes, and nocturnal monsters are invisible killers that are more dangerous than large monsters. People often die in their sleep while camping.In the game, players can avoid camping in the wild by going offline—according to the game, "hiding in the crack of time" to avoid camping in the wild, but Green's "Missed Time" talent has been damaged and does not have the ability to play in the game. Therefore, if Green doesn't want to sleep with snakes, ants and mosquitoes, he can only go to some "safe spots" guarded by the power of order to rest, for example: the altar in the wild like the one in front of him.

After resting by the altar for a while, Green began to collect dead branches and leaves around, planning to start a fire.After the girl was in a daze for a while, she also began to help collect supplies, and the two also collected some wild vegetables by the way.

"This grass...although it is slightly different from the one in the game, it is indeed silver-leaf grass...but even if you eat it, it won't provide energy."

"This mushroom...should be non-toxic."

"Hmm~ Although this fruit doesn't taste very good, at least it's non-toxic."

"Huh? This tree trunk... wow! The larvae of the blasting bug? This can provide energy for a day..."

Green found a big fat worm in the trunk of a tree!But looking at the fat worm the size of a palm in front of him, Green suddenly lost his appetite for some reason.

"Although this stuff is nutritious, but...do you really want to eat it?" Looking at the fat worm in front of him, Green's expression was a little subtle.

In the game, Green dared to eat anything, but in reality, eating such things raw is really a bit...

"Let's cook a little bit."

As a player, Green's wilderness survival skills are full, and Green also knows most of the edible plants in the game.Although the plants in reality are slightly different from those in the game, some key features are exactly the same as in the game, and they can still be identified after careful identification.

Green caught some sauce worms, collected some wild vegetables, returned to the altar, and then used dead branches and dry grass to build a fire next to the altar, took out the flint and steel he picked up in the field, and started to light the fire.

"啪~啪~" It's easy to hit a spark with a flint and steel, but it's not so easy to ignite the dry grass.

When Green lit the fire, the girl finally returned to the altar and confidently placed some of the food she had picked up by the campfire.

Green looked at the things the girl picked up, and couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"So many mushrooms? Wait, these mushrooms..." Green quickly checked the mushrooms the girl picked up, "Girl, these mushrooms are all poisonous!"

Didn't it mean that the cooking skills of maid occupations are very strong?Why can't this girl even distinguish poisonous mushrooms?Green looked at the girl with a slightly subtle look.

Green sighed slightly: "Forget it, although what I found is not enough to fill the stomachs of two people, but it should be fine to eat half full."

Green put a leaf on the ground as a cutting board, and then put the white and fat popcorn larvae on it, planning to deal with it a little bit.

Sauce beetle, a relatively common insect in the forest, feeds on various plants. When attacked, it will explode and release a bad-smelling poisonous gas, but the larvae are completely non-toxic and can be eaten directly.

Green placed the larvae on the leaves and started squeezing them.

"Pfft!" Suddenly, something like poop spewed out from the fat bug's ass.

Although the larvae are non-toxic, Green doesn't want to eat the poop in its stomach.

After squeezing the larva's belly clean, Green skewered it with a branch and roasted it next to a campfire.

When Green was dealing with the sauce bugs, the girl also threaded the mushrooms she had picked up into strings with branches, and put them next to the campfire to roast.

Seeing the girl's behavior, Green was shocked: "Those mushrooms are poisonous! You can't eat them!"

The girl looked at Green blankly.

"At times like this, we can only rely on monkey language." Green decided to use his biggest weapon again - body language.

Green opened the skill list, found the level 1 [Body Language] skill he had learned before, and clicked to use it.Then an information input box pops up instantly.

Green entered what he wanted to express in the information box, and then clicked [Use].

Green relaxed his control over his body, allowing the system to guide his body and make various movements.

"This...mushroom...is poisonous."

The girl couldn't help laughing when she saw Green making all kinds of weird movements like a monkey.

Green glanced at the system prompt of skill failure, lowered his head and thought for a while: "The body movements just now are really incomprehensible. Maybe..."

Green forgoes the use of body language and expresses himself directly through his actions.

"This..." Green pointed to the mushroom.

"Eat..." Green made a gesture of eating.

"Toxic!" Green scratched his neck, making an uncomfortable expression.

The girl didn't smile this time.Seeing Green's nervous expression, the girl lowered her head and thought for a while, then imitated Green's previous action, pointed to the mushroom, made a gesture of eating, and then raised her hands, making a biceps display appearance.

Green thought for a while: "I ate these mushrooms... The last action means...strength? Arms? Muscles? Strong... Does the last action mean strength and health? You mean that you ate these No problem?" Green thought that was what the other party meant.

but……

Green is pretty sure the mushrooms are all poisonous!

Could it be that this girl has strong poison resistance, so she can be immune to this level of poison?Green thinks this possibility is not low.

The cooking skill level of maid occupations is usually not low, so most maids can identify which foods are poisonous or non-toxic.Knowing that mushrooms are poisonous but still daring to eat them, there must be something to rely on.

"Okay. It seems that I was overthinking." Green breathed a sigh of relief and continued to process the ingredients.

In addition to the sauce bugs, Green also found some wild fruits and vegetables.

Since there is no water, Green can't wash the wild vegetables.In order to avoid diarrhea, Green put the wild vegetables on the stones next to the campfire and roasted them!Hygiene and health are ensured through high temperature sterilization.

In order to avoid diarrhea, Green baked for a longer time.While Green was still waiting, the girl had already started eating her grilled mushrooms.

Green watched nervously as the girl ate the mushrooms.Green finally breathed a sigh of relief when he discovered there were no signs of poisoning.

"Sure enough, it is poisonous and resistant. No wonder you picked up poisonous mushrooms..." Green frowned involuntarily, "No! Why did you pick up all poisonous mushrooms? Girl, when you raised food Didn't you consider or plan for me at all?"

Madacqua!Green suddenly felt bad all over.

Girl, how can you be so selfish?It's wrong for everyone to form a team together, regardless of teammates and only themselves!

Fortunately, my outdoor survival skills are not bad, otherwise I might be hungry tonight.Green angrily began to prepare his own food.

It didn't take long for the sauce worms to be browned and crispy.

Green squeezed some wild fruits, and then spread the juice and pulp on the roasted brown sauce larvae, and then wrapped them with wild vegetables.

"Vegetable roll with sauce bug!" Green looked at the vegetable roll in his hand, with a satisfied smile on his face, "It seems that the craftsmanship has not regressed."

"Comprehensive skill: cooking."

Ignoring the system's prompt, Green picked up the vegetable roll and took a bite.

"The roasted soybean worm larvae has the taste of grilled chicken wings. The sourness of wild fruits is combined with the chicken-flavored soybean larvae, plus the fragrance of vegetables. This is a Nanyang-style chicken and vegetable roll!" A satisfied smile appeared on Green's face. "It's a pity that I don't have any cheese. It would be perfect if I could add some more cheese."

The girl on the side looked at the roasted mushrooms in her hands, and then at the vegetable rolls in Green's hands. She couldn't help but swallow her saliva. She seemed to be a little moved by the food in Green's hands. Unfortunately, the two of them didn't understand each other, and Green didn't. Noticed the expression on the girl's face.

After eating some food and replenishing some energy, Green, who was tired all day, leaned against the altar and fell into a deep sleep.After escaping for a whole day after crossing, Green, who was not physically strong, was already exhausted.

The girl looked at Green who was sleeping, and blinked, as if she was thinking about something.

The word explosion (anti-harmony) plasmaworm is actually a sensitive word, which is too unscientific!
