Regardless of whether "Manyan'er" or "Manyan" is more suitable as the name of the food supplier, Guan Liyuan and Liu Maoxing are already on their way. Mokui hired all the food hunters who wanted to participate indiscriminately!
He would send the participating food hunters to the area where the "Century Soup" was captured. After that, the food hunters who could bring back the Century Soup could exchange it for a super high reward of 2 billion...
It seemed that he was very confident in his reward, so Mokui was not worried that the food hunters would break the contract, and he didn't even sign anything.
Normally, after the employer has the clues, the information is shared with the food hunters. Generally speaking, a contract is signed with the employer. For example, after hunting the target, except for the first person who can taste it himself, the employer has the priority to purchase the rest...
As for if there is only one person, the priority tasting right of the food hunter is stipulated in the Eight Laws of Food, and the food hunter giving it up is another matter.
Of course, it is limited to the food hunter himself. If he wants to bypass the employer and sell the only one, he will not be protected.
But Mokui didn't even sign this kind of contract, as if he was sure that no one would offer a higher price than himself.
In fact, this amount is indeed a very large bounty that only appears once in many years in the human world!
Mokui is completely "at all costs"...
"This hunt seems a little strange?" A Lu said to Guan Liyuan privately.
In A Lu's opinion, Xiaosong and Liu Maoxing are both cooks, and it is still the food hunters like them who should deal with the danger, so he came to discuss with Guan Liyuan, who is not weak.
"Yes, it has been three days since the boat set out, and the location has not been announced yet. It seems that it will not be a simple place. Moreover... Although we have bypassed several sea areas with fierce creatures along the way, in general, we are almost heading south. If we continue, I am afraid that the destination will be in the eastern part of the Ice Continent!" Guan Liyuan speculated.
"You also discovered it, right? That Mokui actually used robots all the way... Is he so scared?"
"It's not surprising that the rich cherish their lives."
"And the people who came this time are not simple, the food mafia, the food knight... and a mysterious guy who gives me a sense of threat!" A Lu said.
"The temperature is getting lower and lower..." Guan Liyuan also sighed.
After another three days, Mokui organized the already uneasy gourmet hunters to hold a meeting on the ship, seemingly to announce the real destination this time!
Although it was normal for the employer to keep the clues of the ingredients secret before arriving at the destination, they had been drifting on the sea for almost a week and could even see floating ice on the sea... The old hands also had some bad ideas.
Mokui did not continue to be mysterious, but announced the destination of the Ice Continent and Ice Hell!
Guan Liyuan also knew some geographical knowledge at this time, and understood that the Ice Hell was different from the original work. The Ice Hell in the original work itself was a nickname for the "Ice Continent".
However, here, the Ice Hell is just a place in the Ice Continent, located in the east of the Ice Continent, isolated from the main body of the continent, and belongs to the southeast corner of the entire human world, similar to an independent Iceland! In
terms of the degree of danger, it is the top in the human world, and is as famous as the Three Paths Road, the Gravity Abyss and other dangerous places. Moreover
, the danger of the Ice Continent lies not only in the high-level creatures in it, but more in its climate. Its cold weather, like the Gravity Abyss, can easily kill creatures that adapt to this environment.
As for why there is a natural "Century Soup" in such a place?
Mokui also gave an explanation. This is related to the special environment of the Ice Hell, and it is also somewhat different from the setting of the original work.
In the center of the Ice Hell, there is a towering iceberg. This iceberg did not appear in one day, but for a hundred years, there have been super-high-level creatures who want to migrate from the human world to the food world. When passing through the Ice Hell, they throw their prey here...
Because from the Ice Hell to the east, you will soon be able to see the Venom Current. After crossing the Venom Current and passing the waterfall with a large drop, you will reach the ocean of the food world.
After entering the Ice Continent, because the number of creatures has decreased, some super-advanced creatures that spent their childhood in the human world and may enter the food world after adulthood have the habit of carrying food across the Ice Continent. The Ice Hell is already the "last stop". In the venomous ocean current, they cannot carry food, so they will throw their prey in the Ice Hell...
At the same time, the animal instinct of comparison will make generations of migrating creatures try to throw the creatures they think are delicious here, because due to the temperature, they can be preserved intact for a hundred years.
And with the changes in the earth's crust, every hundred years, the temperature of the center of the Ice Hell will rise due to the activity of methane on the seabed, which will melt the icebergs and even heat them up. At this time, what is cooked is the "Century Thick Soup"!
Sure enough, after hearing the name of "Ice Hell", many food hunters who had guessed that the destination was in the Ice Continent also became agitated.
Although the Ice Continent is also covered with ice and snow all year round, and the average temperature throughout the year is below minus 30 degrees, compared with the "Ice Hell", it can be described as "pleasant climate"!
"Those who regret can go back. There is a lifeboat on the ship!" The bodyguard beside Mokui said to the arguing gourmet hunters unceremoniously.
Most people also grumbled a few words. First, the huge bounty made them "hallucinate", and second... it was because returning by the lifeboat was just as dangerous.
In the end, no one gave up...
and although Mokui treated the gourmet hunters as consumables, in order to increase the chance of hunting the "Century Soup", he still prepared the latest technology "fire starter suit" for everyone.
It looks like a black tights, using heat-insulating and warm materials. It can also generate heat through the friction of multiple layers of materials when moving. Even ordinary people can move normally in an environment of dozens of degrees below zero after wearing it. This makes many gourmet hunters have mysterious confidence.
However, in the human world, the casualty rate of gourmet hunters has always been comparable to that of ninjas in the ninja world. They have no awareness of being hunted, and dare not hunt other creatures. Guan Liyuan did not stop anything, but...
"Miss, have you noticed that your style is different?" Guan Liyuan said helplessly to a woman who was wearing a flaming suit and her normal young female figure was exposed.
"What, what's wrong? Don't you allow my figure to be better?" The woman replied in panic.
The only "disguise" of the other party at this time seemed to be wearing a pirate eye patch, pretending to be a one-eyed dragon, and wrapping his hair... But he still held the camera in his hand!
"Tina, you didn't think I didn't recognize you, did you? When did you get on board? Have you been hiding these days?" Guan Liyuan revealed her "true face".
Tina immediately made a "silence" gesture nervously: "Shh, shh! I finally hid in the cabin every day and didn't come out, so I wasn't discovered!"
"Don't worry, we're already here... Even if you're discovered, no one will send you back." Guan Liyuan rolled his eyes.
If Mokui hadn't pulled everyone over without any selection, Tina wouldn't have been so easy to "hide" in the cabin... It's better to say that the other party didn't want to find her!
After everyone put on the fire-starter suit, the ship had already entered the floating ice area, and the icebreakers were deployed on both sides of the wing...
Looking around, there were only four people who were not wearing black tights, two of whom were naturally Guan Liyuan and Liu Maoxing, and the other was Zong Jia... and the most stuffy food mafia leader, who was wearing his white suit outside his tights!
