Chapter 49: Good stuff, try it with egg pancakes
After a cordial and friendly exchange, the five people obtained a lot of useful information.
Nearly two hundred years have passed since the outbreak of the nuclear war.
Many creatures have mutated into mindless monsters due to nuclear radiation and the infiltration of some unknown forces.
These are called aberrations.
There are humans, and there were animals in the past.
Wastelanders mostly hunt aberrations for food.
In the distorted wasteland where they are currently located, in addition to the gathering place of giant bones, there are five gathering places of similar size, all of which believe in the so-called great god of evolution.
What is the Great God of Evolution?
The priest himself couldn't explain it, but just kept saying that it was a great existence, and that the people of the wasteland now were able to survive because of the protection of the great god of evolution.
If the body has mutations such as tentacles and shells, it is called an evolver.
This is seen as a vast gift from the Great God of Evolution.
If some supernatural powers that can control land, fire, and ice appear, the wastelanders will believe that this is divine power bestowed by the Great God of Evolution and will respectfully call them priests.
Evolvers and priests are roughly divided into levels one to six according to their strength.
Corresponding to the player's C to B ranks.
Level D here is the level of ordinary people, so it is not divided.
There seems to be no existence above level seven, which corresponds to player A-level.
At least this priest had never heard of such a powerful person.
But it exists among the aberrations. Right now, there is at least one seventh-order aberration in this aberration wasteland.
This powerful existence is also given the title of "Emperor" level.
In terms of power, the wasteland era was completely divided and settled into tribal-like gathering places.
Apart from their five gathering places nearby, the priest only knew that beyond the group of deformed people, there was a gathering place to the east where people believed in the God of Glorious Eternal Life.
Believers in the glorious and eternal God can manipulate a special power that is far more bizarre than supernatural powers and do all kinds of incredible things.
However, this priest didn't even understand what the god he believed in was.
The five-member group did not expect him to explain the other gods.
After understanding part of the situation, the five or four people discussed and decided to go to the place where the giant bones were gathered first to take a look and collect more information.
"You, lead the way back to your gathering place."
Lu Wenwu retracted his big feet and pulled the unfortunate priest up.
Priests are typical superiors in this era and usually have no shortage of resources.
Therefore, he had no interest in adventure and was naturally happy to be a guide, leading a few people back.
Old John and the others seemed to be hesitant to speak.
They wanted to look for any remaining creatures, but they did not dare to leave the protection of the priests.
With their level of "ordinary people", going so deep is basically a waste of time.
Exploration takes time.
They don't have the mental power to perceive, and a complete search will take at least several hours.
It seems that the difference is not much, but in fact it is the distance between life and death.
"Amitabha, benefactor, there's nothing valuable in that pit except a map. It's only half an hour's walk from here," the kind-hearted Master Ruhuo warned before leaving. "But please don't lose your life because of greed for illusory wealth."
As soon as these words were spoken, several scavengers immediately became confused.
In the end, only Old John and Takeda resisted the urge to investigate and left with the team.
As for the rest.
He probably died after the five-member group left.
Anyway, no one caught up with the main force.
Attacks by aberrations are extremely common in this desert.
Less than half an hour after they left the place, three monsters shaped like yellow cattle came running towards them.
The gentleness of their ancestors is no longer in their eyes.
What replaced it was deep-seated madness.
Lu Wenwu lost interest after taking a look.
The strength is too low, and there is no feedback even if I kill him.
"Amitabha."
The old monk was performing a Buddhist salute with his left hand holding a Buddhist rosary, and in his right hand was an ordinary Type 92 modified pistol that was already loaded.
"Buddha has mercy on you. May you all ascend to paradise soon."
Three brass bullets were shot out under the power of gunpowder, entangled by an inexplicable light golden force, forming a drill-like shape in the air.
The three-headed monster didn't even have time to scream before it was taken away by the old monk's three precise shots.
Faint white flames flickered and burned on their corpses, burning out black and red smoke that drifted around.
"Amitabha."
Lu Wenwu, who witnessed the entire process, had a strange expression on his face.
If he's not mistaken
Isn’t this the “Buddha’s Compassionate Gun”?
Lu Wenwu always felt that he would often meet the things he sold again in some form in the future.
"Gun! This is a pistol from the old days!"
Old John, who was a little slow to react, suddenly shouted excitedly, and desperately lay on the ground to pick up the three hot bullet casings, as if he had found some rare treasure.
"It's so beautiful. It looks like it came out of the factory. It's completely different from a reinstalled one."
The expression on his face was so intoxicated.
The old monk thought about it for a long time, but he still didn't have the courage to say that this was a brand new product, produced less than a week ago.
"Amitabha, if you like it, take it." Master Ruhuo said dryly, "And the three-headed deformed body, if you don't need it, just bury it."
"It would be a shame to bury it."
The thin Takeda licked his lips, drew his samurai sword and stepped forward quickly. In a few seconds, he cut open the deformed body and took out three huge bloody hearts.
He stirred his hand a little inside and pulled out a small piece of crystal clear white flesh, which he held over like a treasure.
"Gentlemen, please take a look. This is muscularized meat, the essence of the aberrant heart. Eating it can increase your strength and, it's said, your lifespan. It also increases your chances of being granted divine power by the Great God of Evolution."
Lu Wenwu picked up a piece and placed it in his hand, sensing it in the unique way of a spiritual chef.
"The essence of flesh and blood formed by the fusion of vitality and life energy is free of radiation and unknown contamination, and can be used to satisfy hunger."
After making a preliminary judgment, Lu Wenwu swallowed it in one gulp and activated the Heaven-Swallowing and Earth-Eating Technique to conduct a secondary analysis on it.
A faint energy merged into his body.
The added attribute is less than 0.1, and it is not displayed in the system panel at all.
"It tastes like regular heart meat, fat-free, with a chewy texture. It's tasteless after chewing, leaving a good feeling of fullness. The overall taste is quite mediocre. The increase in my energy after eating it is negligible, so it can barely be used as an everyday ingredient."
As a professional chef, Lu Wenwu gave his own evaluation.
It would be okay to season this stuff and use it to stuff sausages, then fry it and wrap it in a pancake stuffed with eggs.
You just have to find a way to add some animal fat, otherwise it won’t be fragrant.
Or you can try making it into meat sauce, or...
Takeda stood there in a daze, seemingly shocked by Lu Wenwu's low evaluation of Muscle-Transforming Meat.
You know, they usually don't want to eat such good things after getting them, and they use them to exchange for more cheap resources.
Put it here with Lu Wenwu
Can only be used as daily food???
Before he could react, the other two pieces of muscled meat had been quickly shredded by Lu Wenwu and placed on a plate. They were sprinkled with the red oil and other seasonings prepared in advance, and mixed with shredded cucumber in a small dish.
Lu Wenwu took out his chopsticks and took a small bite, smacking his lips. "Although it's not a very good ingredient, it tastes pretty good when mixed with cold dishes. If you're lucky, you can get more."
Except for the old monk Ruhuo who had no appetite, the other three gave high praise.
Their physical fitness is relatively low, but their effects are still more obvious than Lu Wenwu's.
Priest, Takeda: "."
Holy shit, who the hell are these people?
And what are those green strips of plants?
Could it be the legendary vegetable?
