Chapter 64

The car drove out of the shopping street, and the wheels rolled over the cobblestone road, leaving behind a series of exclamations. Passers-by on both sides of the street stopped one after another, attracted by the movement of the car passing by, and stopped to look curiously with wide eyes.

In the car, the blond nobleman shouted in a panic: "No horse, no horse! Without a horse, how can the carriage be driven?!"

Jiang Li looked straight ahead at the road, driving slowly through the street. Occasionally, when he met someone standing in a daze in the middle of the road, he would honk the horn, and the passers-by in front would come back to their senses from the horn sound and hurriedly avoid to the side.

Almost everyone put down what they were doing and came to see this huge thing that suddenly appeared.

Through the transparent car window, they saw Jiang Li and Dean and his sister sitting inside. At first, she was terrified by the strange beast, but she calmed down after seeing the familiar people, and was only full of curiosity.

In the back seat, Ophelia grabbed the hem of her skirt tightly, and she asked hesitantly: "Is it, is it electric?"

Among the vehicles that Jiang Li had driven before, there was an electric car driven by electricity.

"No." Jiang Li said, "It's gasoline."

"Gasoline?" Augustus asked immediately, "Is it a kind of vegetable oil? Is it the oil like soda?"

"Neither."

The gate of Dore City was in front of them, and the guards also rushed over after hearing the news. The car stopped at the gate of the city. Jiang Li pressed down the windows on both sides of the car, and also blocked the rest of the words of the blond nobleman.

As Augustus exclaimed, "The car window is gone!", the guard also saw the two of them clearly and breathed a sigh of relief: "Mr. Jiang Li, Young City Lord, it turned out to be you. I thought some monster appeared in the city."

"Are you going to the capital?" The guard made way and opened the city gate to let the car pass.

Leaving the busy city, the road outside suddenly became wide and unobstructed, and there were no pedestrians coming and going to block the way. Jiang Li stepped on the accelerator and drove forward at full speed. In the rearview mirror, the city gate quickly disappeared from their sight.

Augustus and his sister couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.

The two pairs of similar blue eyes were wide open. If they were not restrained by the seat belts, the brother and sister would have almost leaned on the car windows. They looked at the scenery flying by outside the car window, and the trees quickly retreated backwards, without even having time to blink.

What a speed!

How can an ordinary carriage run so fast? Even horses can't run so fast!

Moreover, Augustus soon noticed that the seat was incredibly stable. In the past, when he took a carriage, he needed to fix himself to the seat to prevent himself from being thrown out by the bumpy road. Even so, he still couldn't avoid bumping into things in the carriage and hitting his head.

But now, sitting in the car, he seemed to be sitting on a flat floor. The road conditions were occasionally bumpy, but the seat belt fixed him firmly to the seat. Compared to riding a horse, such ups and downs are almost nothing.

The hot sunlight shines through the car window. Jiang Li turns on the air conditioner in the car. Augustus keenly feels that something has changed on the car console. Before he can react, a cool breeze blows on his neck.

The blond nobleman immediately gets goosebumps.

Along with it, he suddenly becomes enthusiastic: "Is this temperature... a magic circle?"

It is a genius idea to embed a magic circle in the carriage. How come those carriage manufacturers have never thought of it? !

Thinking about the previous experience of riding in a carriage, it is certainly not a pleasant thing to travel in the summer, especially in the stuffy carriage. When the windows are closed to prevent sand and dust, the inside of the carriage will only be hotter than the outside. But now, the cool breeze made the temperature inside the car mild and comfortable.

If it was a carriage like this, he would be willing to live in it for the rest of his life. Augustus thought secretly.

"No." Ophelia in the back seat whispered, "I didn't feel the presence of magic."

Jiang Li glanced at the future great magician in the rearview mirror and nodded in agreement, "It's the air conditioner."

"Oh, air conditioner!" Augustus knew this.

Jiang Li's home was equipped with an air conditioner, and he had seen it.

But, can an air conditioner be installed in a car?

Jiang Li turned on the car music, and pure music flowed lightly in the car.

Augustus: "Oh! Radio!"

They passed through the forest, drove past a road with towering trees blocking the sun, the environment became dark, and Jiang Li turned on the high beam lights.

Augustus: "Wow! Lights!"

Several animals living nearby were startled by the noise of the passing car and jumped around on the treetops. The dew accumulated on the leaves splashed down and fell right on the windshield.

The wipers started to work, scraping away the rain that blocked the view.

Augustus: "Hey! What is this!"

Ophelia held the hem of her skirt in silence, and her azure eyes, which were the same as her brother's, were now sparkling as she looked at everything new in front of her.

...

At noon, the car stopped in a flat and open place. It was time for lunch.

They drove on their own without servants, and if they didn't encounter a village along the way, they would have to find a way to fill their stomachs in the wild. Augustus rolled up his sleeves and said confidently, "Leave it to me."

"Can you really do it, brother?" Ophelia asked hesitantly.

"Of course, don't look at me like this. When I go hunting monsters, I have to rely on myself for everything. I can't leave it all to others." Augustus was confident: "My barbecue skills are not bad."

Jiang Li said with peace of mind: "Then I'll leave it to you, Augustus."

Augustus drew the sword from his waist: "Wait, I'll go hunting monsters and come back soon."

Jiang Li: "..."

...Do we start by looking for ingredients? !

The blond noble set off with high spirits.

Jiang Li took out the camping tools he prepared from his luggage. Tent, folding table, small stool, cassette stove, pots and pans, disposable tableware. Then he went to look for the food he had stored.

He came back with some ingredients and saw that everything was already set. The pot was on the gas stove, and Ophelia stood beside with a staff, using magic to draw water to add water.

Ophelia said softly, "I'll help too."

"Then I'll trouble you." Jiang Li handed over the eggs he had prepared: "Can you cook?"

Ophelia shook her head and said, "I only know some simple dishes."

Stir-frying is a popular cooking method in Dore City, but it has not yet spread to the capital.

Jiang Li sighed, "Then we can only eat fast food."

She tore open the package of the hot pot base and threw the base into the boiling pot. Convenient food does not require any superb skills, just throw the ingredients into the pot. Jiang Li took out the seeds that Messenner gave her before she set out and gave birth to some vegetables.

Ophelia also found firewood and helped her brother build a fire for barbecue. When Augustus dragged the monster back, she skillfully threw a fireball on the fire.

Augustus said in surprise, "Ophelia, you are so thoughtful."

He handled the monster skillfully and put the beast meat on the fire to roast. While waiting for the meat to be cooked, the three of them enjoyed a hot pot.

This is also the most popular lunch among adventurers nowadays, but compared with other adventurers, their lunch content is richer.

The drink paired with the hot pot is cola, and the ice cubes are made by magic, with freshly cut lemon slices added. In such hot weather, there is nothing more comfortable than drinking a sip of cool and refreshing sparkling water. There are also cakes and desserts just bought before departure, freshly washed fresh fruits, and a wide variety of snacks sold in supermarkets.

Although it is in the wild, it is no different from living in a city-state.

Sitting in the shade of the tent, eating delicious food, Augustus sighed with a Coke in his hand: "It is obviously a long journey, why is it as comfortable as a vacation?"

Ophelia nodded in agreement.

In the past, the long journey was tiring enough, but now, the carriage they took has become a car. Compared with the past, the fatigue is greatly reduced, and the food is richer and more delicious.

Apart from other things, the hot pot alone can understand why the adventurers are willing to settle in Dore City.

"How about tomato hot pot tonight?" Augustus suggested.

"Huh?" Jiang Li was stunned: "We have to eat hot pot at night too?"

"Are there any other options?"

"That's natural." Jiang Li said doubtfully: "We still have a long way to go. Won't we get tired of eating hot pot and barbecue every day?"

Augustus retorted loudly: "Of course not!" Ophelia

was curious: "Besides hot pot, are there other more delicious and convenient foods?"

There are really too many.

People in the other world love instant noodles and hot pot base, which are also popular products in supermarkets, but there are more types of convenient fast food than these two? There

are all kinds of flavors of instant rice noodles alone, small pot rice noodles, sesame rice noodles, beef rice noodles... By the way, there is another kind that is very popular on Earth - snail noodles!

Jiang Li, who was well prepared, of course did not forget to pack this in his luggage.

The only problem is...

Looking at the two innocent and simple humans from another world opposite him, Jiang Li lowered his head: "Let's talk about it later."

After all, the smell of snail noodles is not something that everyone can tolerate. One of Jiang Li's roommates hates the taste of snail noodles. At first, he felt very disgusted, but after smelling it more often, he still enjoys eating it now.

Augustus and his sister looked at each other, and their similar deep blue eyes were full of confusion.

Soon, the monster meat on the side was also roasted.

A layer of honey was spread on the roasted meat, and then cumin and other spices were added. Along with the sizzling gravy, the fragrance filled the air. Augustus took the meat off the grill and sliced ​​it into thin slices. The monster meat he had specially selected was delicious and cooked to the perfect temperature, charred on the outside and tender on the inside.

After everyone enjoyed the lunch, they set out again.

Jiang Li had just fastened his seat belt when he noticed the bright and shining eyes of the blond nobleman in the co-pilot seat.

"Jiang Li!"

Augustus said expectantly, "Can I drive this car?"
