There is another point that worries Laplace.
What is the effect of blessing?
Doesn’t it mean that blessing increases the taste of food? Why does it become so smelly instead?
Laplace was not the only one who had the same doubts. Luigi couldn't help but ask: "Why is this happening? What is the effect of blessing?"
Angel replied calmly: "The blessing effect has not taken effect."
"It didn't work?" Luigi looked confused, why?
"Don't be surprised." Angel explained without blushing or heartbeat: "I just made a small mistake when constructing the mental power model, and when outputting energy, it was delayed by 0.1 seconds."
"In short, it failed."
Angel also emphasized: "It's a failure in casting the spell, not a failure in making delicious food."
Hearing this, Luigi probably understood. Angel failed to cast the spell, so the blessing effect did not take effect, which makes sense.
Moreover, Angel is an illusion wizard, and it makes sense that there is a chance of failure when using the gastronomy ability across different departments.
The only thing that puzzles Luigi is that, if he remembers correctly, Magic Bread should be just a trick, right? In other words, it is a level 0 trick... Even if the classification is slightly looser, it is at most a level 1 trick.
Angel, as a first-class official wizard, can cast a level 1 trick and still fail? This is not a time-based trick... Besides, there are no such low-level tricks in the time system.
Although Luigi had constant doubts in his heart, in front of outsiders, he still nodded to Angel: "I understand."
After a pause, Luigi continued to ask: "Do you want to try again now?"
Angel was silent for a moment, then turned his hand to fish it out, and a delicate box was lifted out by a light blue magic hand.
"Go on, this time I will cooperate with the secret box." Angel also added silently in his heart: To ensure nothing happens.
Luigi: "That's good. With the help of the Secret Box, the food you make should be more delicious."
As soon as he finished speaking, Sage Pika asked curiously: "Is this porcelain box an alchemy tool?"
Luigi nodded: "That's right."
Luigi asked Angel with his eyes, and after confirming that Angel had no intention of hiding anything, he briefly explained the general situation of the secret box.
"The four elements are activated to enhance the taste of food through the "Sweet Wind Honey Fire Sugar Spreading" ritual." Sage Pika muttered in a low voice: "This is a rare knowledge related to the ritual... It's a pity."
Luigi: "What's the pity?"
Sage Pika sighed: "Unfortunately, there is currently no research related to food rituals in the academic library..."
If it is just unfamiliar knowledge, Pika Sage will record it with great interest.
But now this is completely unknown and unidentified knowledge. Even if he wants to record it, he has no way to record it. This is what he feels is a pity.
"What's the pity? You Piluxiu people never study food anyway." When Luigi said this, he couldn't help complaining: "I don't know if you Piluxiu people are too idle to dye your teeth."
This useless project has been thoroughly researched, but the food has not improved at all. For so many years, every time I go to Baba Regon, I see that the food you eat is all mush, and I don’t know what happened to you.
Can you swallow it?"
Luigi shook his head, speechless.
Sage Pika smiled awkwardly: "It's mainly because my teeth are not in good condition..."
Luigi sneered: "How do you get bad teeth? It's not stained teeth."
Sage Pika fell silent.
It was not easy for him to judge the stained teeth matter. After all, it was something Pilusiu did internally. Looking at the bright side, this matter did not cause harm to the outside world, nor did it cause resentment to other races. In addition,
It is a national trend, and it can also stimulate the economic cycle... Therefore, even if the Pika Sage knows that this is a bad debt, he still has to swallow it.
Luigi didn't move on from stained teeth either.
Talking.
Because he knows very well, which race does not have a few bad books? Like the dandelion plot of the Telu people, the self-differentiation of the Changhuo tribe, the war casino of the Yingji tribe...
It can even be said that even Jinghai scholars have a famous bad debt: hollow economics.
Compatriots who accidentally fall into the sea of ​​empty mirrors and become the "Hollow Tooth Fairy" are used to pile up building stones and become the soil of economics.
If you count them in detail, they are all bad debts.
Luigi took the secret box and said to Angel: "The activation of the secret box requires four elements. Laplace and I will help. We are each responsible for two elements."
After Luigi finished speaking, he looked at Laplace.
Laplace did not reply immediately. She stared at the small secret box silently, and a flavorful memory emerged in her mind.
It wasn't until Luigi asked in telesync that Laplace came back to his senses.
She stood up and with an elegant turn, two "Laplaces" who looked exactly like her but were dressed differently separated from her body.
Laplace, who was wearing a fire feather skirt, filled the air with a bit of heat as soon as Fu appeared. Even the order sparks escaping from the hearth were scattered more densely.
This is the clone of Laplace that represents the element of fire.
Another Laplace avatar, wearing a long aqua dress like transparent glass, stood quietly on one side. Although her expression was also very plain, it was different from the indifference of the main body. She was more peaceful and quiet.
This is also Angel's old friend, the avatar of Laplace who represents the element of water.
As the clone of Lapras with the element of water and fire appeared, Luigi also took out his harp and strummed it leisurely.
Two completely different piano sounds turned into two clones that looked similar to Luigi.
The cool notes turned into wisps of breeze, surrounding the clone in the blue poet's robe.
The powerful movement of life turned into the phantom of a big tree, hidden behind the clone in the green poet's robe.
The four clones each have their own characteristics.
However, in terms of the nature of the clone, Laplace's is still superior.
Because Water Lapras and Fire Lapras are exactly the same as real people. However, the "illusion" nature of Luigi's two clones is still very obvious, and they are more like phantoms.
However, whether it is a phantom or a real person, the clones of the four elements are already in place, standing around the secret box.
The rest is Angel's business.
Angel looked at the four clones and then at the suspended secret box. His hands hidden in his sleeves trembled slightly.
After the previous "failure", he had an inexplicable hunch that even with the secret box, he might not succeed.
...No, actually you can't say that. Because the magic bread just now was essentially "successful". He said it was a spell casting failure, but only Angel himself knew that the magic bread was successful, and it had been for so many years.
The most successful one.
The appearance is almost the same as the bread sold in bakeries, but the only thing that remains unchanged is the smell.
In other words, the smell has also improved, just a little bit less.
Even with the blessing bonus and such "success", the smell of magic bread did not change. This made Angel's originally confident heart turn into trembling hands...
"Should we start?" Luigi asked.
Angel had already decided to make a desperate move, but when he was about to speak, he noticed that Luigi's eyes always moved up involuntarily when talking to him.
This strange behavior confused Angel: "Wait, is there something on my head?"
Angel subconsciously stretched out his hand and touched his head twice.
He didn't find anything strange.
But Luigi's gaze became even weirder. Even Pika Sage and Pugh on the side kept glancing at Angel's head. Only Laplace still had enough concentration and didn't look away at all.
Looking elsewhere... However, this made Angel even more confused.
Angel thought for a while, then used his mental power to observe his head.
Then, he saw...a pair of red ears of the same size.
Furry cat ears stood on both sides of his hair.
Although Angel was already prepared to "transform into an animal", at this moment, he was still a little frightened when he saw that he really had animal ears.
Angel stretched out his trembling hand and tried to touch the cat's ear. But just like before, when his hand touched the cat's ear, it went right through.
Just a shadow.
After reaching this conclusion, Angel breathed a sigh of relief. No wonder he didn't feel anything at all before. If it was just an illusion, it would be... acceptable.
To be continued...
