Chapter 303: Magic Legend
"Well, what exactly went wrong?"
In the kitchen, Lu Wenwu frowned and looked at the pile of egg-filled pancakes in front of him, puzzled.
In his spare time over the past two years, Lu Wenwu has never given up on exploring the upper limit of cooking egg-filled pancakes.
It can be said that he has almost used the most unpretentious and stupid enumeration method to experiment with recipes and cooking processes.
If he were to judge for himself, this egg-filled pancake would be impeccable in the realm of all things.
But for some reason, he just couldn't break through that barrier.
What made Lu Wenwu feel even more heartbroken was that it would be fine if the road really came to an end.
But it didn't.
He could clearly feel that a wider road lay before him.
As long as you push away the thin layer of mist and lift up the window paper, you can climb higher mountains, see longer rivers, and see more beautiful scenery.
Unfortunately, all of this has reached a bottleneck.
"Forget it, it's time to pack up and enter the dungeon."
Lu Wenwu muttered to himself, raised his hand, marked the egg-filled pancakes used for the experiment, and put them into his personal backpack.
With a hand gesture, a very basic cleaning spell was constructed, which automatically began to clean the many traces left by cooking on the kitchen utensils.
This was something he had learned previously in the Blood Wonderland dungeon, and Lu Wenwu liked to use it very much.
As we all know, cooking is actually a very happy thing.
But cleaning the kitchen and washing dishes are not.
Coincidentally, Lu Wenwu also thought so.
So he was extremely skilled in using this little spell.
If this spell could be included in the personal panel, the proficiency rating would definitely be [Pinnacle].
After finishing organizing the kitchen utensils and putting them away in different categories, and handing the rest to the intelligent robot, Lu Wenwu transformed his chef's uniform into a set of casual clothes and came to the living room.
Xiaobao was lying on the cat climbing frame, looking down, chewing on dried fish.
Maomao grabbed the edge with his paws, trying to invite the other party to play with him, but was ignored.
Although it will be ignored by the other party in most cases, Xiu Gou will not be discouraged. His main goal is to make a high-intensity invitation.
There will always be a time when Xiaobao is annoyed to the point of being unbearable.
In order to take a comfortable nap, the kitten will sigh helplessly and "mercifully" play with the "lonely" dog for a while.
"Okay Maomao, time to go."
As soon as Lu Wenwu stretched out his hand, Maomao turned around excitedly, wagging his tail, and the whole dog jumped high.
When it landed accurately in Lu Wenwu's arms, it had already transformed into the posture of a puppy, sticking out its tongue towards Xiaobao and waving its paws happily.
Lu Wenwu walked forward with a smile, and exercising his power as a poop scooper, he rubbed the soft and furry little treasure hard twice.
"I'm leaving. See you in a few days."
"Meow~"
Xiaobao responded lazily, found a warm place with plenty of sunshine on the climbing frame, and curled himself up into a ball.
"Come on, start matching!" Lu Wenwu looked at his system panel. "No insiders, let's do some casual dungeons. I know S-rank players have a little choice in dungeon types, so get me one too."
[Player intention detected, completing orientation]
[Targeting completed, matching in progress]
[Pet detected, your dungeon difficulty range is increasing]
【Match successful】
[Instance: Magic Legend]
Introduction: Some say magic is the origin of all spiritual cultivation. Some say that mastering magic to its full potential grants immortality. Still others say magic is the source of destruction, a Pandora's box that destroys the world. As the gods fade, the glory of the past fades, and countless spiritual systems flourish, the world's oldest and most respected wizards have abandoned the ways of the ancient sages. Why?
[Number of players: 1]
[Main Quest: Explore the Buried Past of Magic]
Current assimilation rate: 21.47%
[Instance Level: S]
[Time Flow: 10:1]
[Note: This dungeon uses an active settlement method. When you think you have completed the main quest, you can apply for dungeon settlement. At that time, the system will give you a corresponding evaluation level based on your task completion.]
[Note: You only have one chance to apply, please use it carefully]
[Note: Settlement application will not be processed immediately, please do not perform extreme operations]
Lu Wenwu was very satisfied with the main exploration line provided by the copy system.
This means that he doesn't have to rush and can take his time exploring and researching.
This time in the dungeon, since the familiar Crimson Abyss was not there, he had no intention of increasing his strength.
The way of cultivation requires a balance between relaxation and tension.
The best way is to alternate between relaxation and tension, and combine work and rest.
During his cultivation over the past few years, he was too impatient and his mentality gradually became irritable.
Therefore, Lu Wenwu decided to relax a little this time and stop running around like a desperate man.
Um.
By the way, continue to study your own egg-filled pancakes!
"But the system is so generous this time, telling me straight out that I'm playing solo this time?"
Lu Wenwu was a little surprised by this.
However, he was not surprised for too long, as he was sent to the copy by the familiar white light.
When his vision returned, he found himself in a lush forest.
This area is full of lush vegetation and abundant wild animals. You can even faintly hear the roars of many huge beasts that are like thunder.
Just as he was about to release his spiritual sense to check the surrounding situation, a giant beast immediately appeared on the hillside in front of him.
Under the midday sunlight, a giant lizard with a body length of nearly ten meters and at least as tall as two or three stories suddenly appeared, with extremely thick and powerful limbs.
Its pair of vertical pupils hidden behind its thick khaki scales looked down at Lu Wenwu.
The giant lizard looks like the South African armadillo lizard on the blue planet, but the scales on its body do not have that sharp and ferocious feeling. Instead, they are somewhat rounded, like the chamfered edge of a table.
This thick scale armor extends all the way to the thick tail.
It was not until the base of the tail that a protrusion like a blunt thorn finally appeared.
The monitor lizard's tail slammed into the ground, making a dull rumbling sound like a heavy stick hitting the ground.
As an experienced chef with many years of experience, Lu Wenwu was absolutely certain that the big thing in front of him must be very interested in him and was obviously treating him as lunch.
Using the true dragon's unique sense of smell, he took a light sniff, and a scent that ordinary creatures could not smell was inhaled into his nasal cavity.
That is the breath that comes from the blood.
The dragon wings that Lu Wenwu had once taken from some unlucky guy were originally fused with the essence and blood of the Western dragon.
Even though it was later replaced by the Wings of the Dark Yin Dragon, he was not unfamiliar with this aura.
"Tsk, so this is the legendary Asian dragon? It seems this time we're going to be in a Western fantasy world of swords and magic." Lu Wenwu's lips curled up into a smile. "It's a good time to change things up today, so I'll eat you."
As if sensing Lu Wenwu's intention, the dragon suddenly let out an extremely angry dragon roar as if it had been struck by something.
His entire body was like a bulldozer running at full power, rushing towards him like a tiger descending the mountain.
"Your purity doesn't seem to be enough."
Lu Wenwu stood there without moving, just stretched out one hand in front of him with his palm open.
Yalong roared again, and his sprint speed increased even more.
At the same time, the scales on its body were also releasing a layer of khaki light. The scales, which already had amazing defensive power, became even thicker, and the force of the impact was even more terrifying.
Now it is like an indestructible and invincible war hammer!
"boom!"
When Yalong put all his strength into hitting Lu Wenwu's palm, a loud noise and a shrill cry were heard almost at the same time.
Lu Wenwu stood there without moving an inch, his arms still stretched out.
The charging Yalong had already fallen to the ground. It seemed that his cervical vertebrae were broken, and his skull had collapsed deeply. He was breathing out more than breathing in.
Lu Wenwu squatted down and gently touched Yalong's huge head.
"See, I told you your purity wasn't quite enough."
As he spoke, he snapped a thick and sharp fang out of the dragon's mouth and aimed it at the eye that was not covered by scales.
"Be good, it's normal to feel dizzy and short of breath. I'm an expert on this. Just wait a moment, it won't be painful."
Just when Lu Wenwu was about to use Yalong's fangs to end Yalong's pain, suddenly, a loud shout sounded behind him.
"Put down your weapon! You're under arrest! Damn poacher! How dare you illegally hunt the Earth Hammer Dragon? You're so bold! Be prepared to lose everything!"
Along with it came a brilliant red light.
Lu Wenwu didn't sense any danger from the red light, so he pretended not to react and didn't dodge, allowing the other party to hit him.
He suddenly felt a slight tingling sensation in his arms for no apparent reason, as if someone had tapped his tendons.
And there was a force trying to knock the fang in his hand away.
Is this magic?
Why does this magic have such a strange effect?
It looks familiar, but I forgot where I saw it.
Lu Wenwu thought for a short while, then let go of the fang in his hand and let it fall to the ground.
At the same time, accompanied by a few strange syllables, three consecutive red lights flew over.
This time, Lu Wenwu, who was hit, felt a slight dizziness.
Soul magic?
Is this kind of top-notch stuff so common in this world?
After a brief and fruitless search, Lu Wenwu simply pretended to faint, ready to see what the magicians in this world were like.
As his divine sense detected, four wizards in magic robes, each holding a small stick made of different materials, walked out from behind the trees as cautiously as if they were holding a gun, always pointing at him who was pretending to be unconscious.
"He's been hit by three stunning spells. He definitely won't wake up within ten minutes. Do we need to be so cautious?" asked a wizard.
"It won't hurt to be careful."
The old wizard who was the first to shout and attack gestured to the two to remain on guard, and he took the only female wizard in the group forward to check.
"These despicable and cowardly poachers, afraid to take real risks, always steal from our experimental area! Damn it, if we hadn't happened to be patrolling here this time, they would have succeeded!"
The old wizard, cursing, leaned sideways, raised his right hand halfway, and pointed his staff downwards at Lu Wenwu's chest.
His left hand kept groping on his body, and soon he was touched all over.
Soon, his brows furrowed deeply as he muttered, "Without a staff, this guy isn't a wizard. Without a sword, he's probably not a knight either. Without a bow, he's not a hunter either? With that kind of build, he can't be a thief either. This is just ridiculous! How come this guy doesn't even have a single piece of equipment or item on him?"
"Compared to this, this Earth Hammer Dragon has bigger problems."
The female mage kept groping on the dragon's head and neck, with a faint white light lingering on the tip of the staff in her right hand, continuously releasing the power of life.
"The lower right tusk is broken, the flesh on the forehead is cracked, one-third of the skull is shattered, the brain is severely damaged, brain tissue is bleeding, and the cervical vertebrae are completely broken and comminuted. I find it hard to imagine such injuries occurring on a giant earth hammer dragon."
"Wounded like this?" The old wizard was stunned. "No, he's still not dead despite being injured like this?"
"That's the strange thing. The aorta and trachea are completely intact," the female mage said in a strange tone. "Even the broken bones are still where they should be. Only some of the brain tissue has been irreversibly damaged."
This is natural.
Although Lu Wenwu did not move on the surface, he still slightly controlled the transfer of force when the opponent bumped into him.
Breaking the neck without any external injuries will cause blood to be trapped inside, affecting the texture and taste of the meat.
Bone fragments will increase the trouble during cooking and the dining experience, so they cannot be allowed to fly around and embed into the flesh.
"Could it be that the one who injured this Earth Hammer Dragon was a giant that mastered fighting spirit, or was it one of those rude dwarves? Did this ordinary-looking guy just get lucky?"
The old wizard's frown deepened.
"Johnny, report this to the higher-ups and have them send assistance. Wait here and protect Louise while she stabilizes Long's injuries. Lenato, lock up this damn poacher and take him to jail!"
Lu Wenwu: I have no objection.
Going to the prison would be a good idea, as it should allow me to get in touch with the extraordinary people in this world as quickly as possible.
In addition, the prison is a good place for enlightenment. There are top talents from all walks of life in it, and all kinds of miscellaneous industry insider information and gossip are inevitable.
Now Lu Wenwu urgently needs to understand this Western fantasy world that seems a bit weird.
I understand the principle, but why do the wizards here use small wooden sticks similar to those in Harry Potter?
Only now did he finally remember where that strange feeling of familiarity came from.
Wasn’t that just “fainted” and “get rid of you”?
So the wizard in this world is the Harry Potter version, right?
