Chapter 327 Yeats’s special dish, the Eight-eyed Demon Squid
At the bottom of the well, there is a cave, like an underground maze.
Tick-tock——
The sound of water echoes, the smell is rotten, and the flow of the underground river can be vaguely heard.
The torch on the stone wall reflected the dim tomb. Yeats followed closely behind the priestess of the night, and her shadow was stretched extraordinarily long, adding a gloomy atmosphere to the environment.
The Night Priestess turned back from time to time, with a pair of black agate-like eyes above her veil scanning Yeats back and forth.
"It seems that she has not completely let down her guard and is still doubting my identity."
Yeats secretly communicated with Daisy.
"I guess she just thinks you are very attractive, so she keeps looking at you." Daisy chuckled.
“Huh?” Yeats was stunned. Are the priests of this sect so hungry?
Daisy said in a playful tone:
"Next, the ceremony will officially begin... You have to act alone and transfer the heart of the ocean that is to be sacrificed... I look forward to your performance!"
< br>Daisy warned again.
"If you encounter a life-threatening danger, recite my real name loudly, and I will help you escape from danger."
"Real name? What is it?" Yeats wondered.
A breeze gently caressed Yeats's ears, like a lover's whisper, and Daisy's voice sounded in his ears with moist breath.
"Stupid, it's Daisy... very few people know my real name, and I told you when we first met..."
Yeats got goosebumps all over his body , when he reacted, the communication with the Mist Goddess was unilaterally cut off by her.
At this time, the night priestess leading the way, with a cold voice, took the initiative to chat:
"The bishop who introduced you here mentioned that you are an expert gourmet. Even You can make king-level monsters into delicacies on your plate... The goddess of the night’s grand sacrifice is coming, and the gift of food is indispensable. You must be prepared to prepare a feast day and night.”
In the sacrificial process, an essential part is the feast dedicated to the gods.
Mortal chefs cannot handle the magic power contained in the bodies of monsters, so the sacrifice must involve the participation of a gourmet chef.
Yeats's culinary skills were personally recognized by the goddess of the night. He was naturally able to prepare the banquet with ease. He raised his head and said:
"Don't worry, my culinary skills are second to none in the entire Golden Lion." , they are all among the best!"
"Just look at the food at Golden Lion. There are no great chefs in this place, so your words are not exaggerated."
The priestess complained, glanced back at Yeats, and said, "What is your name?"
The name is not important in the Dark Night Sect. What is important is the identity crystal. Many believers will give themselves pseudonyms. After all, Dark Night Most of the believers do shady jobs such as assassination and poisoning.
“Shylock,” said Yeats.
The priestess was noncommittal and seemed to think it was a pseudonym, but she did not delve into it. She introduced herself:
"You can call me Chloe. You know, she is the high priest of Margotha. I won’t show up easily, so I will take care of the trivial matters in daily life..."
"Chloe, what a pleasant name." Yeats smiled, "The goddess of flowers and spring, in Rolandic, is Chloe."
When he said this, Yeats's eyes flashed Through the imperceptible glimmer, an enhanced version of the friendship technique fell on the priestess.
"You are right, this is what my parents have placed their trust in me." The priestess changed the subject lightly, "We have to speed up, there is still an assessment waiting for you today."
Yeats noticed that when Chloe turned around, her cheeks had turned red, and the blush spread to the back of her ears.
With the blessing of Lilith, the god of lust, Yeats’s charm value is already higher than that of a succubus, not to mention the evil magic of “making friends”, which can quickly eliminate the alertness of strangers. , narrowing the distance between the two parties, making Yeats particularly pleasing to the other party.
The favorability level should be almost full.
Yeats secretly thought, but this time he sneaked into the Dark Night Sect, he still couldn’t use the back door.
The promotion device is not advisable, it may be cursed.
You still have to seize the high priest’s stomach, and then the high priest’s heart, to break into the upper echelons of the Dark Night Sect in one fell swoop!
Yeats followed Chloe who was walking faster and walked through the complicated and twisting underground maze. While secretly writing down the route, he asked:
"Assessment? What are you referring to?"
"It is impossible for you to directly take over the preparation of the feast for the big festival. Before that, we still need to conduct an assessment on you in the field of food and beverage."
Chloe said: "The content of the assessment... is to hunt down a king-level monster, cook it into food, and then get my approval."
"There are regulations for hunting. Is it a specific type of king-level monster? Or do you want me to use it freely?" Yeats asked.
"Of course there are limitations." Chloe said, "The goddess of the night likes novel foods with strange shapes that are unreasonable in ordinary people's eyes. In other words, she has a unique aesthetic for the shape of food. This aesthetic As a result, she prefers octopus.”
"I understand." Yeats nodded.
To put it simply, the goddess of the night likes "Kajia cuisine"!
The so-called Kejia cuisine is more novel in appearance than ordinary dark cuisine, and incorporates a large number of Cthulhu elements, such as tentacles, eyes, brains... octopus, crabs, brain flowers, these are Kejia dishes A regular on the ingredients.
Yeats is also very good at "Kejia cuisine" and is already eager to try it, preparing to make some strange but delicious dark dishes!
“So, the high priest has prepared the ingredients for the assessment and is imprisoned in the water prison in front.”
Chloe said: "What you have to do is to cooperate with the other two gourmet chefs to handle this fresh ingredient properly!"
The sound of water in the underground river becomes more and more obvious. , a terrible echo came from the end of the corridor, as if a giant beast was imprisoned behind the iron gate.
Clang——
Just from the shaking sound of the chain, you can tell that this is definitely a big guy!
Yeats remained calm and said: "So, what kind of monster is this?"
Chloe didn't answer. She stopped in front of a huge iron gate and said calmly: "You'll know if you see it with your own eyes."
With Chloe's wave, the door key The runes flashed blue, and then the iron gate slowly rose.
Ahead is a wet stone road, the vision is dim, and the rapid underground river splashes water on the stone bank.
Two figures wearing dark purple robes had already arrived here in advance. The two seemed not to be talking to each other. They were far apart and were busy with their own affairs.
One of them was shaking the suspicious potion in the reagent bottle, while the other was sitting on the floor, flipping through the recipes in his hands.
Hearing the sound of the gate opening, the two of them glanced at Yeats in unison, looking at Yeats warily, and then nodded slightly towards Chloe.
“These two people are the gourmet chefs who will take the exam with you.” After introducing Yeats, Chloe said, “Barton, Matt, he is the successor recommended by the bishop. His name is Sherlock, he just arrived today!”
Barton is a thin, black-haired man with a hooked nose and cold eyes, standing aside coldly.
Matt is a man with a friendly smile and a fat figure. He has a cheerful personality that is rare in the Dark Night Sect. He smiled and said:
"Since he is the candidate recommended by the bishop, he must have outstanding food skills. Please give me your advice later."
"Huh, let's survive first." The hook-nosed man said coldly, "Although It’s just a test, but there’s no guarantee that one or more of us won’t be eaten by the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid!”
“Eight-Eyed Demon Squid?” Yeats looked at Chloe.
Chloe said: "Yes, that is the target you want to work together to hunt!"
After saying that, the water flow of the underground river suddenly became turbulent, and there was a channel under the water surface. The huge shadow dragged the chains and swam quickly, causing vibrations throughout the prison.
Rumble——
Barton and Matt obviously knew how terrifying the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid was, and their expressions were a little ugly.
Each giant eye on the head of the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid can emit an astonishingly powerful energy beam, and each of its tentacles is like steel, which is enough to set off huge waves when smashed.
Among the king-level monsters, the Eight-Eyed Demonic Squid is a high-ranking predator. It is an existence that scares countless sailors in the ice sea!
Boom!
Water jets exploded from the water surface, and a giant eight-eyed demon squid dragged a long iron chain with its densely packed tentacles, making a terrifying sound when it swam. The eight eyes on its pitch-black head glowed with cold red light, constantly rotating, bringing suffocating fear.
"Newcomer, stay back!"
Barton shouted, and shot out a black beam of blinding magic from his palm, which landed on the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid, causing it to hit it head-on. At the stone wall, the roar was deafening.
Yeats glanced at the top of his head and saw lime seeping down.
Matt took out a staff from the space ring, held it in his hand, and said:
"Before you came, Barton and I learned something about the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid... Its eyes are its weapons and its weaknesses. If you can help, please target its eyes!" < br>
“I said, there is no need to let him take the credit from us!”
Barton was busy using blinding spells to control the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid, and said dissatisfied:
“Even if It’s a king-level monster. We’ve been studying it for so long, so it should be our prey!”
Yeats: “…”
King level? Isn't this a matter of one blow?
Oh no, the person I’m pretending to be is a Fourth Ring Chef, so I can’t show any strength higher than that of the Fourth Ring.
However, only by performing well enough can you win over Chloe and pave the way for you to sneak into the top management...
The time has come to test your acting skills!
Yeats said in his heart, you cannot hide it blindly, but you must show your strength appropriately!
When the Eight-Eyed Demonic Squid swam, it caused a wide range of vibrations on the shore. Chloe stood on the swaying stone shore and said calmly:
"If you feel scared, I can change the assessment for you. way, but when the time comes you Even if you pass the test, you can only attack Matt and Barton...it depends on your choice."
Honestly, how good is Chloe's fighting ability against the new gourmet. Also very curious.
After all, a gourmet chef often not only has to cook, but also hunts monster ingredients himself, so his combat power is often directly proportional to his gourmet skills.
“It’s not necessary.” Yeats rejected Chloe’s proposal and said with caution, “Let me observe the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid’s fighting style again and then think of a way to solve it!”
"Wise choice." Chloe smiled and nodded.
Matt and Barton have been in the water prison for a while in order to deal with the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid. They are very familiar with the methods of the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid, and that’s why they showed up when the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid appeared. Immediately, he stepped forward to meet the enemy.
And if 'Sherlock' takes action rashly, not only may he disrupt the rhythm of Matt and Barton, but he himself may also be injured... Watching from the sidelines is a rational decision after understanding the battle situation. , Chloe's evaluation of 'Sherlock' increased by one point again.
Matt and Barton, both four-ring expert extraordinary beings who are good at shadow magic and emit mana fluctuations from the flying spell, came to the sky above the river and fought with the huge eight-eyed magic squid for more than ten people. round.
The magic power of the two people is gradually exhausted, but the momentum of the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid is getting stronger and stronger. The eight eyeballs on the head shoot out furious red light, and the gaze rays as hot as lava sweep towards Barton. !
Once he hits, Barton will be cut into two pieces!
After narrowly avoiding it, the hook-nosed man was already sweating profusely and shouted:
“I still can’t take it this time, retreat first, and then think about countermeasures!”
Matt was about to nod when he was suddenly startled when he saw a figure flying up into the sky, it was the newly arrived 'Sherlock'!
Yeats looked down at the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid, raised his palms forward, and a cluster of dark purple shadows appeared in his palms.
Suddenly, Yeats held the bundle of shadow tightly, and there was a shadow blade in his hand that shone with the edge of shadow!
Chloe was stunned.
She also knows the Shadow Blade spell, but compared to the Shadow Blade cast by 'Sherlock' at this moment, the aura is much inferior!
An association quietly emerged in Chloe's mind, and disbelief flashed in her eyes.
“Is this... a divine spell?”
Could it be that the young believer in front of me had been blessed by the goddess of the night? !
Rumble——
The water surface churned violently, and the eight eyes of the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid opened at the same time. It raised its thick tentacles and waved them quickly, rolling up a violent black whirlpool!
That black whirlpool seemed to have a terrifying traction, forcing Yeats's body to keep getting closer!
Barton's face was ashen: "No, he is going to be sucked into the whirlpool!"
"Where's your blinding technique? Help him quickly!" Matt said.
From Barton's fingertips, a black beam of light shot out like lightning, and he gritted his teeth and said: "There is no way, I can't control it at all!"
No matter what, Sherlock of the fourth ring is alone Facing the Eight-Eyed Demon Squid, there is only one way to die!
Chloe was about to help, but she suddenly froze in place.
铮——
As Yeats' figure fell, he drew a beautiful trajectory in mid-air, and the shadow blade whirled out blood flowers one after another!
Talent·Giant Killer!
Combat Skill·Blade Dance!
The Shadow Blade is so fast that it cannot be seen clearly, leaving only afterimages! The Eight-Eyed Demon Squid whined, and its tentacles raised high were cut off one by one by the Shadow Blade, and the broken tentacles kept falling!
Chloe and others looked shocked.
"And there is such incredible knife skills?!" Barton's eyes widened.
"What a fast shadow blade..." Matt muttered to himself.
Chloe looked at 'Sherlock' who had fallen to the ground, the shadow in his hand gradually dissipating, and said in a daze: "Just now...that sharp blade that cut out in that instant...how did you do that?"
Yeats: "Nothing else but practice makes perfect."
