After Rimuru's meeting ended today, Crownpis went to Rimuru with Ramiris, who was lying on the cup with her bulging belly, and told Rimuru what Ramiris had warned her just now.
It just so happened that Shion, the first secretary, and Shuna, who was the master of ceremonies and temporary secretary of the meeting, were also there.
"But her wanting to live here and the previous things are completely different!" Rimuru gave a similar complaint in Crounpith's heart.
"When was this cup noodles developed? Why don't I know? Have you found a substitute for flour?" Rimuru also asked.
"Aren't you paying attention to Leon's problem?"
"That's a bit far, let's talk about it later."
"I was the one who came up with the material idea, but I made the actual Shuna. If I made it by myself, it would definitely be better than Shion and non-toxic. Right?" Crounpis turned to look at Shuna who kept smiling.
I have to say that Zhu Cai's etiquette level and voice are very suitable for being a master of ceremonies.
"Yes, I'm really ashamed." Zhu Cai bowed deeply.
"I'm so ashamed. This is a big breakthrough. If this continues, ramen and even more noodles will be developed!" Rimuru exclaimed as he took a bite of the noodles that had not soaked for a long time.
"But we don't have any noodles. We used potato starch instead, and there are also ingredients that make the noodles chewy. Master Crounpis's idea is very useful, but the source is a bit..." Zhu Caiyue said with a face.
The redder she became, the eyes that glanced to the side would still glance at Rimuru from time to time.
"What's wrong? What you did to hide it from me gave me a bad feeling!" Rimuru secretly asked for help [Raphael, the King of Wisdom].
"Report. According to the composition analysis, it is the body fluid of the individual "Rimuru Hekatia Tempest" that entered the bath."
"Pfft! Cough cough cough cough!" Rimuru almost spit out the noodles he just ate.
"What's wrong? Rimuru-sama!"
"Are you choking?"
"water!"
Everyone didn't know that Rimuru had already analyzed its ingredients, and they all became concerned.
"No, it's okay, cough." Rimuru glanced at Crounpiss, who turned his head and snickered. No wonder the "bath toys" made of his own mucus had a record of disappearing on a large scale.
I originally thought I was caught peeping into the bathhouse, and I was worried for a while.
If it hadn't been exposed, he wouldn't have asked here for some reason. Damn it, you actually caught him!
"Well, why does it have to be me? There are a lot of wild slimes, right? There seems to be signs of flooding for some reason (I obviously didn't give birth). Aren't those all resources?" Rimuru could only ask.
road.
"In the past, we would have hunted slimes without mercy, but now we have to hunt Rimuru-sama's kin, and we really can't do it!" Shion said.
"If we continue to cultivate fields like this, all the fields will be corroded by slimes, right?"
"I see, you can't let Rimuru-sama bear the sin of killing his own people for our food. Leave it to us!"
"No... well, as long as you are motivated. Speaking of which, why not use wild slimes as material?" Rimuru was embarrassed for a while at Shion who misunderstood without permission, and then said to others present.
"Haruna, Gobuichi, and I have already tested this, but Rimuru-sama's mucus is different from ordinary slimes. Anything containing fiber will be corroded immediately if put in it." Shuna replied.
"Ah, I think so." Rimuru remembered that when he was still the most basic slime, he would indeed do this when he touched plants. If it weren't for the skill [Predator], all the healing potion materials he had worked so hard to collect would have been lost.
It will be "digested" in vain.
But after gaining a name, ability and status, he can consciously control the composition of his own mucus. As long as he adjusts his texture to be like jelly, he can be used as a cute pillow by cute girls and have fun...
Zhu Na continued to add: "Usually, even if you want to eat slime, you cannot kill it easily. Instead, you have to catch it, put it in a container, and add salt, preferably salt with alkali, to melt the slime.
, loses its corrosiveness and acidity. The taste is just so-so, but it can be cooled down in the summer to cool down.”
"Indeed, it's ice cold."
"Summer is also the slime breeding season."
"Although I'm very cunning now, there was a time when it was indeed a common food to relieve the heat."
"But who calls Rimuru-sama a slime?"
Rimuru felt horrified listening to these innocent reminiscences, as if he was surrounded by eyes peeping at his body, making him feel uneasy.
"The method is not impossible, but it looks strange no matter how you look at it." Crowenpis gave him a "step", took out the corpse of a wild slime, and turned it around with one finger.
It formed the shape of a flying pancake. Once it was thrown, the other hand transformed into a knife and cut quickly.
"Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng..."
After a flash of sword light, Kraunpis created a plate on the table. The next moment, a large number of cutely carved doll-shaped "jelly" fell on the plate. Kraunpis took out another
A bottle of jam was poured on it, and a handful of nut crumbs were sprinkled on it. His fingertips flicked the edge of the plate and pushed the plate to the center of the table.
"Oooo--"
"Pah, pah, pah, pah -"
Sporadic admiration and applause broke out.
"As expected of Mr. Crounpisi. Although his seasoning ability is relatively average, his craftsmanship is really exquisite." Zhu Cai commented.
"Zhu Na, your evaluation is really strict, but I'm really not good at cooking anymore. I'm just showing the characteristics of slime that are suitable for making ingredients." Clawnpisi said.
Rimuru took a doll and put it in his mouth. It tasted better than the pudding he had made so far, but the taste was just average.
He couldn't fault the taste and had to ask: "So, what kind of slime is suitable as an ingredient?"
"You have to name the slimes first. You can also name the offspring of slimes that split and reproduce. However, the reproduction rate of named slimes is too low, so the most practical thing is to capture wild slimes and name them. The problem is -
—Considering the usual risks of naming monsters, the key is to popularize the technique of naming the monsters without giving them magic elements but directly using the magic elements of the named monster. If you think I am joking, you can use the skill appraisal." Crowe
Empisi took out another slime corpse and put it on the table.
[Raphael, the King of Wisdom] gave a definite opinion.
Rimuru thought for a while and said in a compromise: "Ah, let's try raising a few first. But I still want to produce rice and flour food... This trade negotiation must introduce crops like wheat and rice no matter what."
Also...are there pigskin-like animals that can refine gel, and are there any similar monsters that can be included in the hunting range?"
