Kuku carried out the mutation by accident, and successfully collected a large amount of relevant information at the same time.
The harvest brought by this trip was much better than Li Fan expected, and the research on the trip ended ahead of schedule.
But now Li Fan is somewhat confused.
The Ryukyakuin United Guild's crusade against Tian Huilong is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to capture it.
To participate, monsters must adapt to the fear of ancient dragons.
Li Fan really needs a Dino Tyrannosaurus to open up the situation, but unfortunately it's a little too early for the team.
Coming to the cabin porthole and stretching, Li Fan faced the clouds and muttered: "Anyway, looking at it now, it seems that there will still be some time before the joint hunting, so let's focus on strengthening the team first."
Two days later, the Yanhuo returned to the Ryūliyuan headquarters from the unknown area.
The waitress in the headquarters lobby, after listening to Li Fan's consultation, asked: "Are you looking for a chef team? Do you want a human one or a cat Ellu?"
"And a team of human chefs?"
"Yes, there are also three-star hunters in there!"
"It's better to come to El Cat."
It's not that Li Fan is worried about human cooking skills, but Fei Rui easily accepted the existence of monsters.
In comparison, it would be much more troublesome for humans.
"Oh, go straight to the left and go to the end. There is the Cat Employment Acceptance Office. There is more detailed information over there."
"Thank you very much."
Li Fan followed the guidance and came to the Maomao Employment Acceptance Office.
Before he could say anything, the heads of more than a dozen Elu cats emerged from behind the counter.
For a while, the meows kept coming and going.
"Haha, I can help you recommend what kind of cat you want to hire."
The strong man at the counter said with a smile.
"I want to hire a team of chefs."
"Ah, I'm looking for a team of chefs. I can't recommend them one by one. Just look at the registered list."
The strong man took out a large book from the counter with a cat's paw pattern on the cover.
Seeing that the whole book was covered with scratch marks, Li Fan carefully turned over it, fearing that the pages would be torn into pieces.
The lazy cat chef team, numbering 4, the chef goes to bed early.
Introduction: I only make lunch for one day, and it tastes pretty good.
Ideal employer: Can provide a soft big bed.
The price is 4000z per month.
So candid?
Exciting cat chef team, number 4, chef ghost eyes.
Introduction: There is no guarantee of cooking time, but all members are 3-star hunting cats, and once had an amazing record of beating up big strange birds.
Ideal employer: Can convert the acquired monster materials into end materials to upgrade the equipment of the cat chef team.
If you are unable to return in time due to hunting, we hope that the hunter can help prepare meals.
The price is 6000z per month.
Who is cooking for whom?
Li Fan turned the page again.
The team of pica cat chefs has 3 cats and 8 chefs.
Introduction: Focus on the cooking of alternative cuisine, cooking at any time throughout the day, often with unexpected dish combinations.
Ideal employer: A team of hunters who are willing to accept all kinds of novel dishes and dare to try them.
The price is 2500z per month.
Is this novel combination of dishes a secret series?
Li Fan sighed helplessly and turned the page again.
Jinyu Mantang cat chef team, number 3, chef Hua Ye.
Introduction: Working hard to become a legendary cat chef team.
He is good at stewing, cooking and frying, making three meals a day, and is proficient in all kinds of cat rice.
Ideal Employer: A team that often travels and hunts in major regions, can collect rare ingredients extensively, has a fixed and spacious kitchen, and each cat can have one day off per week. The team can make reservations in advance before eating, so that the team can have
More preparation time.
The price is 7500z per month.
It’s so strange. The chef team of Jin Yu Man Tang Mao Mao obviously doesn’t have much that stands out, so why do they look so pleasing to the eye?
Li Fan thought for a moment and felt that it must be because the other chef teams were too weird.
"Brother, this is the only place where gold and jade are enough!"
Li Fan pointed at the registration book and said.
"Okay, first pay a deposit of 500z, leave a time and address, and I will ask the chef team to go for the interview."
The strong man said and wrote the contract.
"Uh, brother, I'm a senior hunter."
Li Fan said as he leaned forward and displayed the advanced hunter badge.
"That's it, then 495z is fine."
The strong man said with some embarrassment.
"Don't senior hunters get a 30% discount on purchases at the headquarters?"
"Brother, let me tell you the truth, this is an outsourcing business and has nothing to do with the headquarters."
The strong man said in a dilemma.
"Okay, 5z is also money."
Li Fan said helplessly.
Since he had no hunting plans and had plenty of time, Li Fan made an appointment with the Jinyumantang cat chef team and went to the Yanhuo for an interview in the afternoon.
The first time he hired the Maomao Chef Team, he actually didn’t even know there was an interview.
In the cargo hold of the Flame, after Li Fan and Eudora moved dozens of cargo boxes, they brought wooden boards and began to install partition walls to create a cabin for the chef team.
"By the way, do I need to buy new kitchen utensils?"
Eudora stopped the hammer in her hand and asked.
"No need, the chef team will bring it themselves. I read in the introduction that they also have a barbecue grill that can grill ten pieces of animal meat at a time."
Li Fan responded.
"With this kind of barbecue grill, if you keep grilling meat, you won't be able to finish it."
Eudora spoke freely.
"If you eat continuously like that, you will vomit, okay?"
"The chef team is here, meow!"
Dilu ran down the stairs to the cabin and informed.
"Tell the team to wait a moment, Eudora, while we bring the dining table up."
Not long after, the rectangular dining table was carried to the deck.
Three Ellu cats with black and white fur and suitcases on their backs looked at them.
"Hello, meow! I'm the chef, Hanaha!"
The slightly larger Elle cat pinched its waist forward, threw the apple into the sky, and raised the knife held in the cat's paw and swung it quickly.
The core fell to the ground, and a hollowed-out peeled apple was caught by the cat's paw.
Good knife skills!
Li Fan praised.
The well-proportioned Elcat unloaded his suitcase, held a thick stack of round dinner plates in his paws, and walked forward.
"I am"
As the cat said, it turned sideways, threw the dinner plate into the air, and landed on the ground with a backflip, its two cat claws flashing rapidly.
After a while, the dinner plates were piled on the paw pads.
"I'm Sanye Miao, I'm good at cutting vegetables and putting them on plates."
Looking at this posture, I thought your name was Xiaoliang.
"My name is Ye Ye Miao, and I am an apprentice of the chef team!"
Ye Ye, who was so nervous that he was trembling, ran away quickly after the introduction without any hard work.
"The leaves are still a bit tight, meow, please forgive me."
Chef Hanaye apologized.
"It doesn't matter. If the recruitment is successful, I believe Ye Ye will be able to integrate into the team very quickly."
Li Fan didn't care.
"I have sprained my ankle recently, otherwise I could have jumped higher with the backflip just now."
Sanye said with some concern.
"Safety comes first. Except for cat rice, the team can adapt to a more normal cooking process."
Li Fan expressed his opinion.
After the chef team spread out the cooking equipment, Li Fan hoisted a container of ingredients to the deck.
The interview officially begins.
The team of two people and two cats serve as judges, sitting behind the dining table, waiting for the dishes to be served.
As several dishes were placed on the table, Li Fan forked a piece of meat steak dipped in red sauce and put it into his mouth.
"Yeah, that's good. It's really a professional thing and needs a professional team to do it. I'll give it 5 points."
Li Fan gave an evaluation.
"Uh-huh, 10 points."
Eudora, who had no time to speak, gave out the score in a hurry.
Dilu, whose beard was covered with sauce, said seriously: "It's delicious! 10 points!"
Fei Rui, who moved gracefully, was still playing with the napkin at this time, but when he saw the artistically arranged plate, he nodded in approval and announced loudly: "10 points!"
Wow! Meow! Meow!
The chef team at Jinyu Mantang Maomao started to celebrate excitedly when they heard such high praise.
Huaye played with the knife.
Sanye played with the dinner plate.
The leaves cannot be trimmed, so I picked up a piece of white radish and put it on the cutting board, and cut it vigorously.
The chef team was successfully hired, and the next step was to lead the three newly joined Ellu cats to the cabin to introduce the living environment.
In the afternoon, Li Fan entered the ingredient purchasing center at the headquarters and purchased some cat rice ingredients for storage.
After glancing at the price list handed over by the waiter, Li Fan almost couldn't stand still.
In the end, I spent 55039z to buy a container of common cat rice ingredients.
The so-called common ingredients refer to ingredients that mainly increase attack and defense power and have wide applicability.
This cat rice ingredient is a money black hole.
Li Fan looked at the bill and sighed in his heart.
At night, since she didn't have to wash dishes and had plenty of time, Dilu came to the bow of the ship with a telescope.
After placing the bench, we began to watch the night sky.
"Still waiting to see Huihui, have you made any new discoveries recently?"
Li Fan passed by and asked.
He didn't have high hopes at first. After all, this was the headquarters of the Ryūli Academy. If he was to observe and investigate the Celestial Comet Dragon here, there would definitely be more professional personnel and equipment.
"Hui Hui is flying lower and lower. Although it is not observed every day, it feels like the decline is getting bigger and bigger."
Di Lu looked at the record with some melancholy.
Li Fan took the record book and observed the information recorded on it.
Of course, Dilu is not capable of detecting the flying height of Celestial Comet Dragon, but judging from the visual observations collected, it is not optimistic.
"If this trend continues, in another month or less, Huihui's flight will affect the monsters on the ground."
"What are we going to do then, meow?"
Dilu asked curiously.
"The Hunters Guild and Longliyuan will not let this happen. They will organize a joint crusade to repel Huihui."
Li Fan informed.
"If we find the reason for constantly lowering the flight altitude, will the crisis be resolved?"
Dilu asked.
"Yes, this is exactly the importance of ecological research."
"That's it, meow. I have a theory."
Di Lu whispered tentatively.
"Tell me and listen."
Li Fan said and sat next to him.
"Last time when I captured Xixi, I collected a small amount of Hexing Stone, but as you said, Longliyuan has already studied the Hexing Stone."
"That's right, so only studying the relationship between Hexing Stone and Tian Huilong can be a new breakthrough."
"I was working on this idea, but the strange thing is that there is no Hexing Stone under the Tower of Babel. I searched for it for a long time and couldn't find it at all. So I speculated that Huihui is looking for the Hexing Stone vein?"
After Dilu told his speculation, the bow of the ship was silent for a long time.
There are many cracks and gaps on the Tower of Babel in the game, and if I remember correctly, there is red light flowing inside.
Although Xixi and I didn't reach the top last time, there was absolutely no red light in the gaps on the surface of the Tower of Babel.
In other words, the Hexingite veins in Yiqun Ridge have been exhausted.
“There’s something I need to confirm!”
"Ah! Hui Hui appears, meow! Can't we finish the observation before going?"
Dilu, who was picked up, looked at the red meteors with long tails in the night sky and said with great reluctance.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
Hearing a rapid knock on the door, Dean Vegasa, who was overwhelmed by stacks of paperwork, called out to come in.
"Dean! Has Searing Carapace been tested for its reaction to Hexing Stone?"
Li Fan asked bluntly.
"Um, no, did you find anything new?"
Vegasa asked.
"Yes."
Li Fan said and promoted Di Lu out, and Di Lu hung in the air and gave his speculation.
"Celestial Comet Dragon needs Hexing Stone as its energy supply. Now the reserves of Hexing Stone in Yiqun Ridge have been exhausted, so the Celestial Comet Dragon frequently travels back and forth in the air. This speculation sounds reasonable, but what does this have to do with the scorching carapace?
relation?"
Vegasa attaches great importance to this idea. After all, Li Fan's team is the only one who has witnessed the Celestial Comet Dragon at close range.
But she couldn't figure out what the relationship between Hexing Stone and Searing Carapace was.
"I think the scorching carapace was not melted off by overheating, but was actively scattered to the ground by Celestial Dragon."
Li Fan expressed his opinion.
"You are saying that the scorching carapace of the Celestial Comet Dragon and the Hexing Stone can resonate in some way."
Vegasa stood up excitedly and pushed down the paperwork on the desk that was about the same height as her.
After searching for a while, a map was pulled out.
"The landing point of each piece of scorching carapace is marked on it. If there is a pattern, how can there be a pattern! Every piece is collected as soon as it falls!"
Vegasa leaned weakly against the long table and sat on the ground, the map slipping from her hands.
"Isn't collecting scorching carapace for research? Why is it such a big blow to the dean?"
Dilu asked puzzledly.
"The Hexing Stone veins in Yiqun Ridge cannot last for long, so the Sky Comet Dragon flies ultra-long distances in order to spread its scorching carapace to detect the Hexing Stone veins, but"
When Li Fan said this, he came close to Di Lu's ear and lowered his voice again.
"Tian Huilong throws a piece from high in the sky, and Ryuuriin picks one up on the ground. Tian Huilong goes back and forth every day in confusion. Where is my carapace? It is such a big carapace. If things go on like this, the growth rate of the scorching carapace will be impossible.
To meet the requirements of high-altitude throwing, Tianhuilong can only lower its flight altitude."
After Li Fan explained, Di Lu's eyes lit up.
Instantly I understood why Dean Vegasa was so shocked.
Because if Ryūliyuan does not recover the scorching carapace, Tian Huilong will spread the scorching carapace more comprehensively according to the predetermined flight path, and maybe new Hexing stone veins will be found.
Of course, Li Fan didn't think that this incident was all the fault of Longliyuan. After all, the harm caused by the scorching carapace was obvious to all.
If not controlled, it will still cause immeasurable losses.
