Chapter 362: Obtaining the secret seasoning, immeasurable commercial value! (6.2k)
In the quarry, rubble is everywhere and sharp rocks are rugged. The owner of the Qiangang Treasure has been frequently moving for a long time, leaving almost no flat place to stay.
Except for the drag earthworm itself, which is huge and good at digging holes, it is difficult for other elves to exert its original strength here.
This is the fighting place specially chosen by the drag worm for the group of uninvited guests, and...a trap that is not carefully prepared, but is very deadly!
Thick and majestic ground energy is continuously released from the huge body of the drag worm, covering the ground full of hard rocks.
Under the action of an earthquake, sharp rocks protrude and boulders roll, and the entire area instantly turns into a gravel trap. In this scenario, these rocks are more dangerous than the earthquake energy waves.
And if they just avoid these stones, it is nothing to Senbu and the others on the ground. It is just a more difficult dodge training.
But what they have to face is not only rocks, but also the hidden steel treasure master who is full of anger waiting to be vented!
"Woo!"
Under the pile of rocks, a head that was half red and half white, resembling a super large elf ball, emerged from it.
Under the huge impact of the drag worm's hard head made of metal, all the surrounding boulders in contact with it shattered into pieces, turning into pieces of hidden weapon-like gravel and scattering towards the surrounding elves.
These gravels contain no energy, and hitting the body only hurts a little. There is nothing to hide from, but what follows is a dragging earthworm's punches like a violent storm.
As for how an earthworm can punch...
However, he saw several thick light blue hairs protruding from the holes on both sides of the worm's huge body, making hunting sounds as it swung its body.
This is the unique attack method that the Tuotuo earthworm family is proud of. It turns its thick and long body hair into fists and uses them to unleash a fist storm on the enemies that anger it!
If it is a drag earthworm that is more than two meters long, its body hair may only be a dozen centimeters long, but for the Qiangang Baozhu, which is nearly twenty meters long, its body hair has grown proportionally to more than one meter.
Coupled with its flexibly twistable body, this length is enough to help it hit any enemy within visual range.
Naturally, this also includes the elves in front of me who are dodging the violent storm that combines stones and fists.
At this moment, the dull eyes of the Treasure Master of Qiangang were filled with the joy of venting his anger.
This is the price for interrupting my work!
…………
The violent seismic energy waves underfoot, the ground collapsing from time to time, and the rolling dangerous rocks, the Hidden Steel Treasure Master's unorganized but extremely fierce "Chaotic Cloak Fist".
Faced with this triple attack that was almost suffocating like a violent storm, the elves responded in different ways.
The flying Guluton and Gardevoir naturally made full use of their flexibility to fly high in the air, basically avoiding the first two threats of the three attacks. They only had to avoid the body hair fists waving randomly in the air.
Menas was too big to dodge in the face of such an extremely intensive attack. He simply did not dodge and opened a water flow ring on the spot. With his thick skin and fleshy body and the healing of the water flow ring, the damage he received was also small.
Not too high.
Zoroark immediately used the latent spirit attack to escape into the void, and then lay on top of the huge head of the drag worm.
Her body was light, and she was in the middle of venting without realizing that there was an elf lurking above her head. Because it was dark under the lamp, it was also the safest place.
The most relaxed and free-spirited one was Xiao Duolong. He was too small and very fast, and most of his fists were aimed at targets that were larger than him. So Xiao Duolong shuttled through the storm of rocks.
It's like having fun.
The fairy cloth, which could neither fly nor have high durability, was in trouble. It could only use body skills and silk to maintain safety in this offensive storm.
Her petite body was like a shaky boat in a storm on the sea, and it looked like it would be swallowed up and capsized by the turbulent waves at any time.
However, as the extremely long body of the drag worm emerged from the hole in the ground, more and more body hairs stretched and waved from its body. The balance that Senbu tried hard to maintain was finally overtaken by the body hairs protruding from the belly of the drag worm.
break in.
On the left is a huge boulder tumbling due to the tremors of the earthquake, and in front of the right are two waving body hairs. The fairy cloth had just been pulled by the silk to avoid the protruding sharp rocks, and now it was the person whose body was unstable.
when.
It can be predicted that if she is hit by any one of the boulders or fists, Senbu's swaying body will completely lose her balance, and what awaits her will be fierce attacks one after another.
Xianbu's heart sank. She knew that it was impossible to dodge, so she retracted the silk and wrapped it around her body to minimize the damage she might receive next.
Even so, whether it can survive the catastrophe caused by the earthquake is still unknown.
At the critical moment, an orange-red figure swooped down in the sky, grabbed the fairy cloth in the chaotic storm, and then quickly pulled it up, taking her away from the front battlefield.
…………
"Bu Yi... (Thank you for saving me, Senior Luton...)"
The master was almost beaten to death by the chaotic offensive launched by Tuo Tuo Liao. Senbu, who was temporarily out of danger, was still a little frightened.
[It’s a small thing, the earthquake will be over soon, I’m going to start a counterattack, what do you say?]
Therefore, Luton grabbed the fairy cloth with his front paws and hovered in the air, waiting for an opportunity to move.
"Bu Yi! (Take me with you, just rush and leave the rest to me!)"
Senbu gritted his teeth.
Tuo Tuo has a hot temper, and Xian Bu is not very minded. She was in such a mess just now, so of course she wants to get the situation back.
Therefore, Luton knew Xianbu's strength, so he did not stop him and nodded.
[Okay, you have to pay attention, I will be very fast in a while.]
"Bu Yi! (Understood!)"
Xianbu responded, and then took out a piece of silk to hold Guledun's paw, making it easier to separate from Guledun later.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content below! The tremors beneath him gradually subsided, the pile of rocks returned to calm, and the dragging earthworm's body hair gradually showed signs of fatigue.
Therefore, with a flash of light in his eyes, Leden seized this perfect opportunity and dived straight down.
At the same time, the ferocious energy from ancient times in its body burned and boiled, its whole body bloomed with bright golden-orange light, and its entire body transformed into a round wheel as dazzling as the sun, crashing into the huge body of the drag worm.
This is the exclusive fighting style move that belongs only to Gullerton, full blast!
This move is not only very powerful, but if it targets the opponent's weaknesses, it can further increase its power.
The steel type is exactly the attribute that is restrained by the fighting type!
Therefore, Luton's diving speed was extremely fast, and when the drag earthworm reacted, the distance between the two was only two or three body positions.
It could intuitively feel that the power of this move would be very terrifying, but at this time it was too late to dodge, because it had just vented its excitement, and most of its entire length of nearly 20 meters was exposed.
Outside, if you try to get into the ground again, you will probably get beaten twice.
His thoughts changed rapidly, and he decisively chose to fight back.
The energy of the steel system surged up, and the drag worm used its iron head. Its hard steel head took on a silver-white metallic color under the influence of energy, and its hardness increased to a higher level.
Isn't it just a head-on collision?
My main thing is to be a head iron!
The strengthening of the iron head greatly increased the confidence of the drag worm, and it even looked forward to a head-on confrontation with Gullerton.
But it didn't notice Zoroark above it, Menas on the ground below it, Gardevoir and Little Dragon on its flanks in mid-air, and even the fairy cloth hanging under Guluton's body, hitching a ride.
They have already accumulated a lot of energy, just waiting to give this behemoth a thunderous blow.
…………
"boom--"
"Woo——"
Somewhere in the quarry, there was a sudden loud bang in the air, like gunpowder exploding a mountain.
What followed was a heart-rending cry of pain.
The waves of sound caused by the aftershocks of the explosion could even make Xia Chen, who was dozens of meters away from the scene, deafen his ears.
Looking at the thick smoke produced by the explosion in mid-air, his expression changed, and he understood that Senbu and the others had already started an all-out war with Tuoduolu.
Taking advantage of the pause when the earthquake stopped, Xia Chen applied superpower to his legs and accelerated his steps again.
Without the hindrance of an earthquake, the distance of tens of meters would only take a few seconds.
When Xia Chen rushed to the scene, the entire area was still covered in thick smoke generated by several moves, and hot water vapor was still rising in the air. It should be the product of the contact between Menas' water cannon and two magical flames.
The high temperature and the choking smoke forced him to release the power of the waveguide to form a barrier to isolate the outside world, and then used part of the power of the waveguide to extend the search for traces of the elves and the drag worms.
But found that it was no longer within a hundred meters radius.
Moved again?
Xia Chen frowned slightly.
The good news is that this should mean that the Tou Too earthworms were unable to match the firepower of Senbu and the others and ran away again.
The smoke gradually dissipated, and he chased forward along the tunnel traces of earthworms dragging on the ground.
The pursuit this time was much longer. Even when running at full speed, it took him nearly three minutes to see the huge body of the drag worm in the distance.
At this moment, he knocked open a huge boulder hidden on a small hill, and then burrowed into a cave that was obviously not naturally formed.
Xia Chen's eyes lit up. If nothing else happened, that should be the place where the secret sauce was hidden.
Just as Ming Yi guessed, when his physical condition is on the verge of danger, the first thought of Tuo Tuoluo is to eat the secret seasoning.
"Quick! Get in before it does, don't let it eat all the seasonings!"
Xia Chen shouted as he ran that he couldn't guarantee that the dragworm wouldn't eat all the seasonings in a hurry.
Because it is a hole dug by a drag earthworm, the size of the entrance to the cave is very delicate. It can only accommodate a drag earthworm to enter, and a fairy cloth cannot be inserted into it.
In this case, only the smallest and fastest Xiaoduolong can be used.
Dragging the position between the earthworm's body and the edge of the cave, Xiaoduolong inserted it accurately and then disappeared from Xia Chen's sight.
Xia Chen and the other elves couldn't get in, so they had to wait outside for Xiao Duolong to come out.
Although the average race speed of the two elves is very different, the gap in their strength is even greater. It's hard to say who will win in this pure speed competition.
…………
The length of the burrow should not be deep, because the worms stagnate after entering and reaching a certain depth.
Its exposed tail was twisting violently, and it looked like the two elves were fighting over the secret sauce.
This is a powerful gym-level treasure master spirit...
Xia Chen couldn't help but feel worried about Xiao Duolong's situation.
However, Xiao Duolong was not even frightened by Sirona's fierce bite of the land shark, and even the mere Hidden Steel Treasure Master could not scare him.
Not long after, the tail of the dragging earthworm finally disappeared completely into the hill. It was unclear whether to continue running away or to turn out.
However, before Tuotuo Earthworm came out, Xiaoduolong's figure appeared at the entrance of the cave first.
There was guilt on his face, and his two little paws were empty.
Didn't you grab the secret seasoning?
There was a trace of disappointment in Gu Ledun's eyes. Xia Chen touched its head and comforted him: "It doesn't matter. There are four other seasonings that can also help restore strength. Don't blame Xiao Duolong, he did his best."
[How could I do that?]
Therefore, Luden shook his head, shook off Xia Chen's hand, and walked forward to greet and comfort Xiao Duolong, who looked a little sad.
"Gule (Don't be sad, I have other methods of healing.)"
As soon as Gu Ledun finished speaking, the little Duolong, who had been crying just a second ago, suddenly blinked his big yellow eyes slyly, then opened his little claws, and a plant with several small white flowers appeared in its hands like magic.
.
Then came the second and third strains.
He successfully grabbed three secret seasonings from under the mouth of Mo Mo!
"Messi! (Surprised or not, unexpected or not!)"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Guluton's expression was wonderful. He didn't expect that Xiao Duolong would make such a big joke for himself, and he couldn't laugh or cry for a while.
But getting the thing is the most important thing. It sincerely thanked: "Gule...(Thank you, Xiao Duolong...)"
Not only Xiaoduolong, Xianbu, Menas, Gardevoir... every elf who fought alongside it just now in search of the secret seasoning, even Xia Chen, all received Guluton's thanks.
The lonely guest from the end of the world has been traveling alone for more than two hundred years. After traveling through time and space and getting into trouble, he felt the warmth and help of his partners again and again, and his state of mind also changed dramatically.
At this moment, it actually felt pity for its nemesis. At this time, where should it hide in a corner and heal itself in solitude?
I don't even have any friends, it's so pitiful...
…………
After Tuo Tuo earthworm got into the hill, it never came out again. It seemed that the round of fire concentrated by the elves had a great psychological shadow on it, and it completely lost its desire for revenge.
Xia Chen didn't care about it. The purpose of coming here this time was not for it. With the secret seasoning in hand, it could go wherever it liked.
Observing the three plants with small white flowers in his hands, Xia Chen didn't know which of them could be eaten and which couldn't be eaten, so he sent his current location information to Paipa and Mingyi on the spot.
This place is several kilometers away from the place where I originally sent the message, and the quarry is just like the old Shangjing - it's all authentic.
Without giving them the location, it would be difficult for the two of them to follow the trail of the elves fighting all the way.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Mingyi and Paipa, riding motorcycle lizards, arrived one after the other.
Xia Chen handed a plant to Pipa, who dug out a thick and simple book from his bulging hiking bag.
Familiarly turning to a certain page in the middle, he looked at the book for a while, then looked at the small white flowers, and excitedly chanted: "The Book of Appointments says that this is a salty secret seasoning, made from powder ground from this plant."
Adding it to dishes can relieve pain and numbness in hands and feet, and it can also have a very good effect on relieving muscle strength decline."
"Of course, the actual effect must be more than this, otherwise the earthworms would not be able to grow so big because of eating this thing."
Xia Chen nodded in agreement and became nearly ten times bigger. It is not an exaggeration to say that this seasoning is a panacea.
"If that's the case, let's follow the instructions in the book, pick the flowers and make them into real seasonings!"
As he spoke, Pipa rolled up his sleeves, took out a grinding tool that he had already prepared from the storage ball in his hiking bag, and started working on the three plants.
Xia Chen quickly stopped Pipa who was about to destroy the flower, "Don't be so anxious, are you just wasting such a treasure?"
Piper was confused, "What a waste. Isn't it the best use to treat the injuries of the Mastiff Godfather and Gulton?"
Xia Chen was speechless, "Do you know what it means [teaching a man to fish is worse than teaching him to fish]?"
Piper shook his head. Although the language was the same, the languages and cultures of different regions were not the same.
Padiya and Donghuang are thousands of miles apart. How could Paipa know what this ancient proverb from the East means?
Ming Yifu's singing wife then explained: "Xia Chen means to plant this salty secret seasoning widely."
Pipa cleared the air and said, "I understand, so that if the elf is injured in the future, there will be a way to treat it."
Xia Chen covered his face, this guy really has no business sense...
…………
Xia Chen didn't want to talk to him anymore, and said bluntly: "Use this as raw material and dilute it to make elf props. How much do you think it can be sold for?"
Pipa once again cleared the air and said, "That's it, Xia Chen, you are really a business genius! We are going to make a fortune!"
"You are too insensitive..."
Xia Chen complained silently.
After thinking about it, he suggested: "You discovered this thing, but if you can get it, my elf and I also contributed a lot. How about we set up a company to develop this together? I have a team and funds, and you can just be a shareholder with peace of mind."
, research and development, including all subsequent launches, leave it to me...or you can have other ideas."
Piper waved his hand, "There's no need to go to all this trouble. You can just use your company's resources for research and development soon? Just give me a 5% dividend when profits are generated."
Xia Chen: "..."
This guy really has no business acumen. Xia Chen only did one thing: defeating the Treasure Lord and grabbing the seasonings, and he got 95%?
Even if there are costs for R&D and production later, it can’t be so exaggerated.
Xia Chen was silent, but Pipa thought it was him who had spoken loudly. He said weakly: "...I said too much?"
"Thank you for your trust. Let's go back and talk... only giving you 5% is too little."
Xia Chen is an honest person and doesn't want to deceive his friends like this.
After finalizing the business promotion plan for the secret seasoning for the time being, the three decided to leave this place.
The purpose of Pipa's trip was to find the secret seasoning to treat the Mastiff Godfather. Now that he had found one of them, he naturally decided to go to the Acupoint Market with Xia Chenmingyi.
According to the navigation of Rotom on the mobile phone, this place is about two hundred kilometers away from Anza City. Therefore, if Luton goes at full speed, he should be able to arrive in less than an hour, but he has to take care of the speed of the two motorcycle lizards.
People didn't arrive at this city famous for its mining until dusk.
The prosperity of Anzha City is naturally not as high as that of Desitai City, the capital of Padea, and it does not have as beautiful and stunning bright night view as Niangguang City, but the city's appearance, dominated by black and gray, also has its own unique characteristics and style.
The purpose of coming to Anza City this time was not just to make simple arrangements during the trip. In addition to dealing with the secret seasonings, he also wanted to try his best to ensure the evolution of Suo Cai Ling, so Xia Chen directly rented a villa for a month.
This method of renting is not common, but if you have enough money, everything will be easy.
The three of them were disgraced after working in the quarry all afternoon. They tidied up in their respective rooms and took a bath before going out to eat.
Just like in Niangguang City, Xia Chen went out of his way to find a high-end elf restaurant where Suo Cailing could have time to eat. Unfortunately, he didn't encounter the same thing as last time at his first meal.
However, Xia Chen was not in a hurry. In such a big city, he could always meet Suo Cailing. After dinner, he asked the restaurant manager. The latter was very attentive to this big customer who spent five figures on a meal and agreed wholeheartedly.
After the two exchanged contact information, Xia Chen and the other three returned to their temporary residence.
Since Suo Cailing had no clue yet, Xia Chen first thought about the business plan for the secret seasoning.
…………
First of all, as the most important raw material for making subsequent elf props, this plant must be cultivated in batches on a large scale.
Then determining its growth conditions is the first priority.
Xia Chen certainly understands the truth that oranges grown in Huainan become tangerines, and those grown in northern Huaibei become tangerines, so it is very important to form a team of botanical experts to figure this out first.
The same principle applies to subsequent R&D, and the two teams must be their own.
Xia Chen didn't have any unconditionally trusted connections in Padya, so he immediately called his professional manager, Jiang Qian, who was far away in Donghuang.
The matter was urgent, and he didn't take into account the time difference between the two areas. When he answered the phone, Jiang Qian's voice was obviously confused.
"Xiao Chen? Is something wrong?"
Normally she would have called Mr. Xia or boss. Xia Chen hadn't heard this slightly intimate title for a long time.
He apologized: "I'm sorry, Sister Qian, I forgot to consider the time difference. Come back to me tomorrow when you wake up."
Jiang Qian yawned and her voice became much clearer, "It doesn't matter, it's already past five o'clock. I usually get up at this time. If you have anything to say, please tell me."
Xia Chen stopped talking nonsense and briefly explained the efficacy of the secret seasoning and his own thoughts.
As soon as Jiang Qian heard about the shocking effects of the secret seasoning, she immediately became energetic.
After patiently listening to Xia Chen's words, she said excitedly: "I understand. I will form two teams as quickly as possible and take them to Padiya, and try to get there within two days."
The research and development of the company's new products cannot be said to be bad, but it is just unsatisfactory and far from the level of products like the Beautiful Energy Cube.
Keen business intuition... No, there is no need for this stuff at all. Normal people can see that this secret seasoning is definitely a potential raw material for making elf props!
If it is really developed, this new product will definitely become a new cash cow for the company after the beautiful energy cube!
