"Hey, President, the demon insect that appeared this time is this big guy? It really looks like an earth dragon."
In the guild dungeon, in front of one of the iron cages, Zong Quan looked at the demon insect trapped inside through the iron bars as thick as his wrist and sighed.
The dungeon was converted from the original wine cellar. It was expanded and divided into iron cells with thick plates made of black iron, which were specially used to detain the captured demon insects.
Now that the demon insects have not invaded on a large scale, it is necessary to take this opportunity to study these demon insects carefully and find out their weaknesses, so that we can better deal with them in the future.
In the iron cage, a demon worm that looked like an enlarged version of an earthworm was wriggling constantly, trying to escape by drilling into the ground. Unfortunately, it was surrounded by thumb-thick black iron plates, and its drilling skills could not be used at all.
Xue Huan used the Five Elements Beads to drill into the soil and captured it alive in its home turf, but her method was not a reference. After all, others did not have the Five Elements Beads, so now they had to come up with a feasible plan to deal with it, so that they would have a way to deal with this kind of demon insect when they encountered it again in the future.
Pei Ji said: "I'll go in and try."
Xue Huan: "Be careful."
Pei Ji opened the iron fence and slipped in, giving the demon insect no chance to escape.
This demon insect looks like an earthworm and has the same long life as an earthworm. Even if it is cut in half, it will not die and will become two.
Pei Ji tried to cut off the "head" of one of them. It seemed dead, but after several people pretended to leave, it came back to life.
Apparently this thing knows how to play dead.
After several attempts, Pei Ji discovered that this kind of demon insect could not be killed at all. Even if its body was chopped into pieces, it could still be resurrected, and after resurrection, it could stick itself back together.
Xue Huan asked someone to bring a live chicken and throw it in to test it out. She saw its attack method clearly. It wrapped around the live chicken like a python, and then melted it into its body. Not long after, it expelled a whole set of chicken bones and chicken feathers.
It has no mouth, its entire body is its "mouth".
Seeing the way it eats, Xue Huan and the others were a little horrified.
Cold weapons like swords and knives could not cause any substantial damage to the demon insects. Next, they tried magic attacks, fire attacks, poisons... and finally found that fire attacks caused the greatest damage.
Xue Huan drew the image of the magic insect and named it "Giant Earth Dragon" for convenience. She also wrote down its characteristics, attack methods, weaknesses, etc., and gave it to Zong Quan, asking him to print and distribute it. In this way, another kind of insect was added to the magic insect manual.
After completing these tasks, the key point comes next.
——Test whether this magic insect is edible!
She had previously killed a demon insect that looked like a giant lobster. Except for having an extra pair of wings, it was exactly the same as a giant lobster in every other way.
When she saw the big lobster, she naturally thought of a question. This thing looks so similar to a lobster, and she doesn't know if it can be eaten. It would be great if it can be eaten. After all, it is so big, it must weigh several hundred kilograms!
Hundreds of pounds of lobsters, just tell me if it makes you greedy or not.
Xue Huan first removed the evil spirit from the entire lobster's body, then performed a cleaning spell to make it spotless, and then roasted it on the fire.
Not to mention, as time passed, the shell of the lobster gradually turned red, and a fragrance spread out, making people drool.
After it was cooked, she peeled open the lobster shell and found a large piece of snow-white meat inside. When she poked it, oil came out and it smelled so good. However, she didn't dare eat it immediately. Instead, she caught a pheasant to test it to see if it was poisonous.
The pheasant was completely fine after eating it, and kept staring at the meat, obviously wanting to eat more.
Xue Huan finally took a bite. One word: beautiful! Two words: delicious!
In the end, the whole lobster was eaten by her and the mole. Of course, she left some back for Pei Ji to taste.
She didn't tell him what kind of meat it was when he was eating, and she would tell him after he finished eating. Pei Ji's expression looked a little strange when he heard it, and he probably wanted to vomit.
Eating insects is a very challenging thing for him.
Xue Huan comforted him, "Just treat it as a lobster. It's so delicious, so even if it looks a little ugly, it's acceptable. Let me tell you, this is nothing. There are so many weird-looking delicacies in this world."
Then she gave him some basic knowledge about various ugly and strange foods.
Pei Ji: “…”
Although she talked a lot of good things about it, she didn't really want to try it.
When it comes to food, he's very conservative, while Xue Huan, on the other hand, is quite bold.
Having said that, Xue Huan is going to attack the demon insects again.
"Xiao Quanzi, let's go and eat some charcoal-grilled earthworms." Xue Huan went into the iron cage and cut off a large piece of meat from the demon worm. She carried it out and called Zong Quan.
When it comes to eating, Zong Quan has no worries and follows Xue Huan's steps.
Pei Ji looked at the two people's excited backs with some helplessness, but still followed them.
After Xue Huan processed the demon insect meat, Zong Quan had already set up a grill and burned the charcoal red.
The meat of the giant earth dragon has no bones at all. Xue Huan cut it into slices of appropriate thickness and put them on the grill. Zong Quan was brushing the meat with sauce on the side, and whenever he had the chance, he would brush it and turn the meat over.
The two of them were waiting expectantly, but unexpectedly, the meat became smaller and smaller as it was roasted. The high temperature roasted it into fat and dripped it into the charcoal fire, stimulating the flames to suddenly rise.
Pei Ji clapped his hands lightly, and a stream of icy energy was released from his palms, and the flames were immediately extinguished.
Xue Huan and Zong Quan looked at each other and saw disappointment in each other's eyes.
"It seems that the meat of the giant earth dragon is not suitable for roasting and eating, but is more suitable for refining oil."
Xue Huan did what she said, and soon she got a jar of oil made from the meat of a giant earth dragon. It was fragrant and sticky, and its texture was very similar to honey, but with a strong meaty aroma.
That night, she used the oil to stir-fry dishes and made a large table of delicious food to reward the people in the guild.
Everyone thought it was extremely delicious.
Pei Ji sat next to Xue Huan. She picked up a piece of bacon and stir-fried vegetable moss and put it in his bowl. "Try it. It's really delicious. I'm not lying to you."
He would eat whatever his girlfriend brought him, even raw meat, not to mention that it was fried in oil made from demon worm meat.
After eating it, Pei Ji felt it was really delicious.
He ate happily without Xue Huan helping him with any more food.
After having a good meal and a good drink, Xue Huan and Pei Ji left the guild together and headed towards the Prince's Mansion.
Halfway through the walk, it started snowing.
The snow was not heavy and melted as soon as it hit the ground, but Xue Huan was still a little excited.
"I wonder if it will snow a lot tonight. It would be great if we could wake up tomorrow and see a thick layer of snow outside. Then we can build snowmen and have snowball fights in the yard."
