...It is well known that humans, especially Chinese, are a powerful race that can eat the invasive alien species crayfish to the point of extinction.
Spicy, salt-baked, steamed, there is nothing we can’t cook.
“…”
Gu Yumian took Shuo Han's lightsaber and pushed away the flesh inside the Zerg's hideous shell.
It is still unknown whether it is poisonous or not and what its specific taste is, but it is visible to the naked eye that the meat is really... good.
After all, it's normal to feel hungry after just finishing a battle that was so physically demanding.
What's more, there are very few aquatic creatures in this era - even a few kinds of synthetic fish meat cannot be bought on the Star Internet, and shrimp and crabs are the most common varieties, not to mention hairy crabs and crayfish.
After Gu Yumian finished asking this question, Shuo Han also fell into deep thought, his expression becoming unusually serious.
Officers: "..." No matter what, eating Zerg is too unreliable, right? Your Majesty must be thinking of how to refute it.
Shuo Han thought for a while.
Gu Yumian: "Hmm?"
Shuo Han: "If you want to make it, add some chili."
Gu Yumian nodded: "Okay."
Officers: “……???”
At this moment, the countless roars flashing through the hearts of these most elite soldiers in the entire empire could almost condense into a tangible, dense barrage of bullets flying past from behind.
——Your Majesty, were you seriously considering what flavor to eat just now...
—It’s over, it’s over, it’s over. This country is finished…
Your Majesty has excellent taste. This future first mate looks like someone cats/dogs/wolves/peacocks would really like...
After all, the goodwill gained from Gu Yumian was indiscriminate, and Shuo Han put his military jacket on Gu Yumian as soon as he landed.
The monarch's military uniform jacket was tailor-made, double-breasted with tassels, in a very noble and arrogant dark blue. It was a little big on Gu Yumian's shoulders, but it also made Shuo Han particularly satisfied.
As a human, Gu Yumian certainly didn't know, and wasn't very sensitive to things like 'smell', but animals knew it very well, especially cats, which have a strong sense of ownership. Anyone who has ever raised a cat should know that cats usually rub their ears and paws on people, actually leaving their own scent very deliberately.
If you go out and touch other cats, you will be discovered quickly.
Shuo Han didn't dare to be so blatant before, but he became unscrupulous after receiving the official confirmation of their relationship from Gu Yumian.
The human, clad in the Shuohan military uniform, was enveloped in the snow leopard's aura of aggressiveness and possessiveness. The Shuohan were undoubtedly the most powerful in the entire interstellar system. Therefore, to the officers, not just the Zerg, but also their fellow animal beings, Gu Yumian bore the mark of "Shuohan exclusive" from hair to fingertips.
...You can only watch from a distance. If you get a little closer, you will be treated indiscriminately as a love rival.
Gu Yumian: “?” Why are they standing so far away?
Shuo Han lazily withdrew his gaze and held Gu Yumian's hand: "Don't worry about it."
An hour later, the test report from the Academy of Sciences arrived.
It is extremely safe to eat.
"Because the Zerg's main toxin is inside its shell, pincers, and mouthparts," the little fox, wearing glasses, typed carefully on the screen. "After removing the shell, the torso has been thoroughly tested and found to be non-toxic."
Moreover, after testing, it was found that this batch was not high-level Zerg, but intermediate and high-level Zerg that had parasitic abilities. Although the combat effectiveness and toxins of this batch of Zerg were comparable to those of high-level ones, they did not have parasitic abilities.
...But even so, no one had ever thought of eating them before, and no one had been able to peel off the Zerg's terrible shell.
“…”
Before Shuo Han was born, the Zerg, who had dominated the interstellar space for hundreds of years, would never have imagined that such a day would come.
First, a few years ago, he was almost wiped out by Shuo Han.
One day in the future, this monarch's humans will cook it and place it on the dining table of Earthlings...
It must be that this couple is destined to be incompatible.
It was almost evening on Ancient Earth, time for dinner.
"I'm just trying it out," Gu Yumian said, "It might not taste good, um..."
Because the Zerg were so big, Gu Yumian needed the help of the officers when doing it - of course, there were enough people, but the main thing was that they had to get close to Gu Yumian under His Majesty's cold gaze, which was also a big challenge for the officers.
The structure of these thousands of Zerg is very similar to that of giant crabs.
But having said that, given its size, it's impossible to cook it the same way as you normally cook shrimp and crabs. Gu Yumian thought about it and the final method was actually closer to roasting a whole lamb.
The Zerg's meat was rich and tender, sizzling with fragrant oil when grilled over a fire. Large chunks of meat, still with their thin crusts, were grilled, and Gu Yumian used some ingredients that were available, some left over from the production crew.
Chill it and marinate with scallions, minced garlic, and peppercorns. Brew some white wine and apply a layer of burnt salt on it. After removing the internal organs, scrape a few cuts in the thick part of the meat to make it easier to marinate, then grill directly on charcoal fire.
After roasting for a while, the originally thin shell was roasted to a golden color, and the snow-white and flexible meat was crispy yet tender.
The whole piece of roasted meat was yellow-red, shiny, with crispy skin and tender meat, fat but not greasy, and it was constantly dripping with delicious golden oil from the roasting...
It's a pity there's no flour. Deep-frying them would make them more fragrant. This method is very simple. Ordinary soldiers can learn by watching Gu Yumian do it. Soon, all the Zergs on the ground were put on the grill one by one.
Moreover, it has been certified as non-toxic through dozens of instruments and remote analysis data from the Academy of Sciences.
Even if some soldiers felt psychologically burdened at first, they could not help but eat a bite or two under the encouragement of their companions.
The bite was incredibly crispy and crunchy, the shell toasted to a charred aroma, yet the meat inside was still tender, juicy, and chewy. The garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, and fine wine flavored the meat, mixing with the oil to create a hot, fragrant juice...
Everyone looked at the sizzling Zergs and suddenly felt:
"My impression of the Zerg as being brutal and terrifying may never return."
This is how large pieces of meat are cooked. In addition, Gu Yumian also cooked other parts separately - such as the claws. Just like when eating crabs, the meat in the claws is the least and the most tender, the same is true for Zerg.
This part is relatively small, so you can stir-fry it with chili spices first, then add the sauce and rock sugar and cook it in hot oil for a while, then collect the sauce...
This final short cooking time is key, allowing the refreshing and spicy flavor to fully penetrate.
The agate-colored sauce is glossy and oily, and the tenderest meat is wrapped in the red shell. Because the shell has been cracked a little in advance, the fragrant and hot oil adheres to the shell and flows into the delicious white claw meat inside...
Wrap the whole claw shell in oil paper and hold it, suck out the tender crab meat with the rich-flavored hot oil. It is refreshing and spicy, and instantly makes you feel happy from your stomach to the top of your head!
Even the shell is spicy and crispy. Many people can't help but chew the shell together, which is very satisfying.
Shuo Han was of course the first one to eat - because he didn't want others to get too close to Gu Yumian. Shuo Han was the biggest laborer in the entire cooking process, and it was a routine operation for him to use his SSS-level supernatural power to light the fire and collect the juice.
Shuo Han took a bite from Gu Yumian's hand.
The eyebrows raised slightly.
The cold and lazy expression turned serious.
Gu Yumian: "How is it?"
Shuo Han commented succinctly: "It was too wasteful before."
I'd killed so many Zerg before, but it was a waste of energy to blast them into ash with particle cannons. I never thought they could be made into something so delicious. Now that I think about it, it's such a waste.
Gu Yumian: "..."
Officers: "..." Although it is a bit funny to say it, but... everyone couldn't agree more with this point of view.
The video connects the ancient Earth, the Academy of Sciences, and the pandas, huskies, and fox cubs on the starship heading towards the capital planet.
Gurgle.
Gurgle.
The sound of swallowing saliva came one after another.
"What? Cooking?" The deputy head of Zerg research at the Academy of Sciences continued on the call, walking into the lab in a white coat. "What are you thinking about? How do you make that thing..."
When I opened the door, a red, spicy and oily spicy 'crab' was spread out in the air.
In order to understand the status in real time, colleagues still use the large-scale holographic mode.
Deputy Team Leader: “…”
Depend on.
You know what, it smells quite good.
Because the Zerg's activities become weak or even dormant at night, the ones active on the surface causing damage are mainly low-level Zerg, while high-level Zerg and the Queen are still hiding behind.
But even so, the situation cannot be said to be non-critical - because even low-level Zerg have evolved.
Now the Zerg are wreaking havoc on several planets around the ancient Earth, including the planet that Gu Yumian and his companions visited last night. The good thing is that there are not many people living there, and they were basically evacuated as soon as possible in the morning.
Many people far away in the capital star and surrounding galaxies have not yet clearly understood the current situation.
Ah, classes are suspended and it’s vacation time, happy!
Why move to the capital planet? I'm too lazy to move. Sigh... There's no sign of a Zerg invasion, and my old lady is still out playing cards as usual.
My treasure variety show has just begun. Is it possible to start over again after the war? Please.
[The capital planet will definitely be fine.]
So, Your Majesty compromised with the cabinet and agreed to the marriage just for this matter? That's not really the case, is it? Is it that serious? 23333 I feel like it was just a vacation.
Most of these are children under the age of twenty who have not personally experienced the war with the Zerg.
Adults see and think more, and they can't say such easy words, because they know that everything is just a beginning -
Eight o'clock in the evening.
The first case of Zerg parasitism occurred on the gray Saturn planet near the Earth, hundreds of light years away from the capital planet. The person was a local miner who did not evacuate in time.
Only one photo was released in the news. A man with half of his body covered in bruises was separated from his crying wife and daughter. He was still conscious. The little girl was holding the schoolbag sewn by her father and crying blankly.
The children didn't know what this meant, but all the adults' hearts sank at the same time.
--here we go.
Faster than anyone guessed.
Being infected and parasitic is an irreversible and cruel process that cannot be prevented by any known technology or medical means. At the beginning, one is still conscious, but can only watch his body become a nest of Zerg.
After this, the war becomes truly brutal...
“…”
Ancient Earth.
The uneaten food can be stored. It tastes much better than nutrient solution. In addition, the Zerg meat has a rich energy storage. Although only a part of it can be absorbed, it is enough to play a significant role.
In addition, people with more acute senses will have a subtle feeling after eating the Zerg meat prepared by Gu Yumian - it is difficult to explain it specifically, but it feels like they are stronger than before.
Of course, the most important thing is that after eating the Zerg, you can go and fight the Zerg again, and after fighting the Zerg, you can continue to eat... Thinking of this, everyone became very motivated.
After a short rest to eat and recuperate, Shuo Han and the officers will soon be back in battle.
Next stop is Gray Saturn.
After answering the call, Shuo Han's mouth straightened and the absent-minded look on his face disappeared.
"Someone is infected, on Gray Planet."
"Have you had enough fun?"
"I'll take you back to the capital planet in a while."
Shuo Han buried his head in the side of Gu Yumian's neck and sniffed, whispering.
Gu Yumian can't stay here any longer.
Shuo Han has always been extremely confident in his abilities.
But now, I don’t know why.
Became a coward.
