Bring me all your local specialties!
Night fell.
Qin Ze and his three roommates randomly chose a restaurant outside the school.
The fat man is rich and powerful.
He always manages to regain his confidence in these kinds of moments.
"Have you four just arrived in Sea Capital?" the shopkeeper asked.
Qin Ze said calmly, " Haidu Academy."
The boss became more serious. "Sea creatures are a specialty of our Sea Capital."
"It can be used as food; ordinary people who eat it will improve their health and live longer."
"Martial artists can use it to strengthen their bodies and bones, and increase their qi and blood."
Qin Ze was surprised.
Are you sure it's not a strange beast?
The flesh of the strange beast is inedible and contains a deadly poison.
Even Level Nine Martial Artist couldn't withstand just one bite.
"Then give each of us one." The fat man waved his hand.
The owner explained, "One serving is enough for the four of you, and we might not even be able to finish it all."
"Besides, the price..."
The fat man looked displeased. "Enough with the nonsense, just do what I say."
It's just money, isn't it?
My dad has plenty.
The boss nodded in agreement and happily ran to the kitchen to instruct them to start cooking.
"Boss, sea monster meat is really good."
"My family gave me this before; a few bites and my blood and qi would boil."
The man with the buzz cut spoke first.
Under duress, both he and the long-haired man acknowledged Qin Ze their boss.
The boy with the flat-top hair was named Huai Xu, a third-grade student, and the third oldest in his dormitory.
Wen Jing, with long hair, is a level 1.5 student and ranks second.
The fourth fat guy.
After all, he's currently a weakling who's not even at level one.
"Your boss has a big appetite," Qin Ze said nonchalantly.
Wen Jing suddenly said, "The welcome party is tomorrow, should we make some preparations?"
Qin Ze replied, "I can't sing or dance, so I won't participate. You guys do as you please."
Wen Jing and Huai Xu were stunned.
The fat guy explained in a low voice, " Brother Ze, the welcome party isn't about singing and dancing."
Qin Ze waved his hand. "I can't tell jokes either."
The fat man smirked. "It's not exactly a comedy routine; frankly, it's just us getting beaten up one-sidedly."
Qin Ze: "What the heck?"
The fat man figured it out.
Before enrolling, Qin Ze hadn't researched anything about the Haidu Academy.
Wen Jing said in a deep voice, "The welcome party is a long-standing tradition of the Haidu Academy."
"A battle between second-year students and freshmen, one against two."
"They call it honing the fighting spirit of the new recruits."
Huai Xu sneered, "It's just an old bird trying to show off and intimidate us."
The chubby guy added, "The welcome party challenge is voluntary. In your Brother Ze -performing class, almost every year everyone signs up."
Huai Xu proudly raised his head. "A true man lives between heaven and earth; how can he remain subservient to others for long?"
"We proud individuals are all proud and unyielding, wouldn't you agree, boss?"
Wen Jing, he remained silent.
You really are a man of steel.
Qin Ze asked, "What level is the veteran?"
Wen Jing: "It won't exceed level three."
Qin Ze immediately lost interest.
I have absolutely no interest in bullying a few rotten garlic cloves.
" Brother Ze, are you going to go?" the fat man asked.
We'll talk about it later.
Wen Jing pondered for a moment, "Regardless of winning or losing, I suggest you participate."
"You're the most famous among our freshmen this year; you broke the Heaven-Reaching Tower record."
"Whether you're a returning student or a new student, they all look forward to your performance in the orientation challenge."
"If you don't show up, they'll think you're a coward, which will damage your reputation."
Qin Ze raised an eyebrow. "So, I'm managing a celebrity after all?"
Huai Xu clenched his fist. "Boss, if we team up, we won't lose too badly."
Qin Ze found it amusing.
Is it difficult to kill a sophomore veteran like me due to the Tide?
"The sea monsters are coming!"
The owner brought four plates of delicious-looking seafood meat to the table.
"Let me make it clear beforehand, there will be no refunds if you can't finish it."
The fat man said, "Don't worry, I won't shortchange you."
"Let me try it first."
The fat man eagerly picked up a piece of meat, his face instantly turning red.
"No, I can't eat anymore."
The fat man looked like he was about to burst from overeating.
Huai Xu took three bites.
Wen Jing ate two bites.
The two put down their chopsticks and immediately began meditating.
The boss gloated, "I told you you couldn't finish it."
Rich people care about their image, so they won't take leftovers home even if they can't finish them.
The remaining four dishes can be processed again and sold again.
They've made a fortune.
Let me see what's going on.
Qin Ze became interested.
The moment the sea monster meat entered his mouth, his blood and qi surged.
The meat is firm and bouncy, and contains abundant blood and energy.
However, this energy is extremely violent and must be refined immediately, otherwise it will cause energy disorder.
Qin Ze did not have this concern.
Once the Devouring ability is activated, even the most raging blood and energy will become as docile as a little wife.
"It tastes good."
This thing is as effective as Qi-Gathering Pill; Qin Ze could feel his Qi and blood increase slightly.
[ The Source of the World has been detected. Reclaim it?]
Qin Ze was taken aback.
Holy crap!
Does sea monster meat contain the Source of the World?
"Recycle."
[One millionth of the Source of the World has been recovered]
Qin Ze frowned as he looked at the sea monster meat in front of him.
The Source of the World is produced by the World, World Hunt Participant obtain and preserve it through keys.
Why are there sea monsters?
"Boss, you can't finish this either?"
Huai Xu was somewhat surprised.
Qin Ze only took one bite.
He's Level Two Martial Artist, this shouldn't be happening.
Qin Ze shook his head and quickly finished off a plate of sea monster meat.
The eyes of the three roommates and the boss were practically bulging out of their sockets.
Are you still eating?
The three shook their heads.
Qin Ze took the remaining sea monster meat and ate it all in less than five minutes. He then picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth.
[Recycling two millionths of the Source of the World ]
The four plates of sea monster meat together provided two millionths of a unit of Source of the World.
In other words, the amount of Source of the World in meat is not fixed.
"Boss... are you alright?"
Huai Xu looked at Qin Ze as if he were looking at a monster.
Even Level Three Martial Artist couldn't possibly eat four plates of sea beast meat by himself.
Qin Ze shook his head, then asked the shopkeeper, "Where can I buy sea monster meat?"
The shopkeeper snapped out of his reverie, " At Fisherman's Wharf, martial artists return from their voyages every morning, and they sell the sea creatures they hunt along the way."
Qin Ze immediately issued commands to his jungler clones via the Local Area Network.
"Let's go to Fisherman's Wharf."
After dinner, the four of them strolled around the nearby night market.
It's the start of the new school year, and the street in front of the school is bustling with activity, with attractive upperclassmen everywhere.
Late at night, the group of four returned to their dormitory.
Fatty and Huai Xu were already arm in arm, like long-lost brothers.
One is openly burned, the other is secretly burned.
The two of them actually make a good match.
Wen Jing was a man of few words. Although he appeared to lack any masculine energy, his mannerisms did not give off a effeminate feeling.
In short, they are two interesting new roommates.
Qin Ze had some questions about the sea monsters.
After lying down in bed, he opened the chat group to ask.
