Chapter 80: Stir-fried Mutant Octopus (shuhaige.net)



After settling things at the hotel, Li Yao rested for a while. Seeing that it was about three or four in the afternoon, she teleported to the beach with Da Zhuang.

Because it's an uninhabited island, there isn't much trash on the beach, but there are many small shells, sharp stones, or dead trees.

The whole environment looks very wild, but the beach, the waves, and the azure coastline are truly beautiful.

Li Yao didn't run around on the beach for fear of cutting her feet, so she released one of the luxury yachts she had previously acquired from the Flag Country.

This is a small luxury yacht, white, double-decker, 27 meters long and 15 meters high. It's just right for Li Yao to take Da Zhuang along.

The stern panel of the yacht can be raised and lowered, and there are two large sunbathing mats not far from the stern panel. The stern well area is well enclosed in the middle, and the second floor can be accessed from both the port and starboard sides.

On the port side, there are fixed carbon fiber struts and clips to secure the sunshade, and below the clips is the shower head at the stern.

There is a shore power plug and storage box on the starboard side, as well as a socket for attaching fishing rods.

The bow area is spacious and has two large sunbathing mats, with cup holders next to them.

After Li Yao finished her rounds, she let Da Zhuang take over the yacht and went back to her space to change her clothes.

Li Yao came out wearing a swimsuit over a t-shirt and shorts; she wanted to see what the seabed was like.

The yacht first circled the island, giving Li Yao a general idea of ​​the surrounding area. There were no large marine creatures, and the shallow sea area was about 3 kilometers from the shore, followed by the deep sea area, where the entire sea was a darker color.

The shallow sea area had clear water, abundant fish and shrimp, and large areas of coral. Li Yao observed for a while and found that the fish here did not seem to have mutated much.

Li Yao asked the system: "[6834 What's going on? Isn't there that unknown energy in the sea?]"

System: [Host, yes, there is energy in the sea, but there are many kinds of unknown energy in the sea. They interfere with each other and constantly evolve into new variants, ultimately presenting the current state of balance. There are many living fossils in the deep sea, species that have survived for hundreds of millions of years. An unknown energy is probably nothing to this vast ocean.]

Okay, Li Yao seemed to understand, but also seemed not to. She asked the system, "Are there any mutated animals in this sea?"

System: [Yes, host. Would you like to see it? How about a giant mutated deep-sea octopus? We can grill it.]

Li Yao: [...How big is the mutated giant octopus?]

System: [Hmm... maybe tens of thousands of kilograms, enough to last a long time.]

Li Yao: [Seriously, you can't eat that much, so why did you think of eating octopus?]

System: [Host, I've found human mukbang videos really interesting. I've been enjoying watching them lately. I saw one yesterday where they were eating seafood, and I'd like you to try it.]

Li Yao: [Thanks for the invitation... Tens of thousands of kilograms, who knows when we'd ever finish eating that much? Just thinking about that number makes her feel full. But, could we cut off a little finger? Maybe the leanest octopus tentacle?]

The system thought it was a good idea and discussed with Li Yao how many steps it would take to cut the octopus.

The first step is to use the [Designated Target Space Teleportation] to teleport the giant octopus to [Infinite Space].

In the second part, in the "Wireless Space," Li Yao used her mental power to cut off one of the octopus's legs.

The third step is to teleport the giant octopus back to its original location.

Great, after three simple and straightforward steps, Li Yao obtained a super thick octopus leg.

It looked quite large in the room, so Li Yao didn't take it out, but instead cut off 5 jin (2.5 catties).

After storing the yacht in her spatial storage, she and Dazhuang returned to the mountain hotel via a teleportation portal and went to the kitchen to prepare stir-fried octopus tentacles.

Take out all the scallions, ginger, garlic, chili peppers, green peppers, and onions from the storage space, wash them, and chop them for later use.

Li Yao removed the fresh octopus tentacles, sliced ​​them thinly, took out a pot and boiled a pot of water. She then blanched the cleaned octopus slices in the water until the flesh turned white, and quickly removed them and placed them in ice water.

Then heat oil in a wok, sauté scallions, ginger, and garlic until fragrant, add fermented bean paste and chili sauce and stir-fry until the oil turns red, add thin slices of octopus tentacles, along with small red chilies, green peppers, and onions, and finally add a little cooking wine to remove any fishy smell, a little oyster sauce to enhance the flavor, stir-fry quickly for a few seconds and it's ready to serve.

After the steaming hot, fragrant, and spicy octopus tentacles were cooked, Li Yao took out a large bowl of rice from her spatial storage and began to eat.

I tried the octopus tentacles first. They were spicy, numbing, and sweet. The octopus tentacles were cooked perfectly, not overcooked. Paired with a big bowl of rice, I could easily eat three large bowls.

After eating and drinking her fill, Li Yao keenly noticed that her superpower seemed to have increased a little. It seemed that these mutated animals were a great tonic.

There were still several hundred kilograms left in the space, enough for her to eat for a long time.
