"What is this, why is it so smelly?"

"Stinky tofu smells stinky and tastes delicious!"

"It smells bad, but tastes good?"

In front of the boiling cauldron, Sid looked at the special captain Sam with a look of disgust on his face.

The meaning is self-evident.

However, the latter didn't have the slightest thought of trying, and his gaze automatically swept to the face of the soldier next to him.

At the end, seeing the reluctance on the soldier's face, Sam also reminded him.

"This is an order."

Depend on!

It smells not much different from Shet, even more black lumps.

The soldier stepped forward with a look of death on his face, and bought a bowl at the price of five iron coins.

A total of six.

Because beans are not yet grown in large quantities, tofu is still quite valuable now.

It was glued with colorful juice, and under the disgusting eyes of the people around, the soldier gently picked up a piece and swallowed it.

hiss.

The crispy fried tofu skin suddenly cracked in the mouth, and the mixed juice rushed to the taste buds.

The moist and tender interior is wrapped with a hint of spicy pepper aroma, which goes directly from the nasal cavity to Tianling Gai.

what does it smell like

Tears suddenly appeared in the soldier's eyes, and his whole body trembled slightly.

Of course, it was choked!

There is no such thing as chili in the nutritious meal of the Clear Harbor Sanctuary.

After all, it is located in a tropical climate. If you still eat spicy food, it is inseparable from getting angry.

but this taste

Swallowing it lightly, the soldier picked up another piece, closed his eyes and began to chew carefully.

This time, he tasted a faint new taste in the spicy and rich aroma.

That is the taste in memory.

It was a piece of crisp candy that his father bought him from the foundation's merchant ship when he was six years old.

But how could there be such a smell in this stinky tofu?

He opened his eyes, and began to swallow the remaining tofu piece by piece with doubts, trying to find the secret inside.

However, until the last piece was eaten, the aroma still lingered in my mind, making people unable to extricate themselves.

"tasty?"

Sid and Sam looked at each other, confused.

When the soldier had tears in his eyes at first, they were a little glad they didn't try it themselves.

But then this development, why is it eating faster and faster?

The two of them are not ordinary residents. They have been to many gathering places and shelters, and have never seen such strange food.

"Yummy, very tasty, can I buy another bowl?"

There was a hint of longing in the soldier's eyes, and the cook behind the stinky tofu stall laughed.

Just now, this person actually added a full one-thirtieth of his experience.

A lot, really a lot.

You must know that he is now at level six, and his level-up experience has skyrocketed several times.

Normally, one can only accumulate so much experience in one day, and it is basically nowhere in sight to improve the level.

But now, as long as these people can try a bowl, it feels like they are not far from upgrading!

"Buy ten bowls at a time, I'm offering a discount, only four iron coins per bowl!"

"purchase!"

Hearing this, Sid waved his hand and gave everyone a bowl.

Including the soldier who had already eaten a bowl before, also got a new bowl of stinky tofu.

At this moment, the eyes of the cooks in other stalls next to him stared straight, and they began to discuss.

"Grass, this group of people seem to have never eaten anything in their entire lives, didn't they all pretend to be pretty before?"

"It's bad, if they are full of stinky tofu, how can we earn experience?"

"Look at the leader, he was very disgusted before, but now he is squatting on the ground and eating like a starving ghost."

"Wait, if they come to eat at the rest of our stalls, everyone has to make an agreement. Each person can only buy once."

"Okay, anyway, it's just a little more experience for the first time!"

"No problem, hurry up and let the moth bring him here."

The stinky tofu stall didn't even have a table, and a group of people just squatted on the ground and devoured it.

Many people were choked and coughed again and again, but they still couldn't help taking one mouthful after another, tasting the pleasure brought by the splash of juice in their mouths.

Is it that delicious?

Of course there is!

Sid has completely forgotten the previous dislike, and ate faster than the assistant Pine next to him.

He even took a sip of the juice in the bowl, and stood up with his mouth pouting.

"Boss, another bowl?"

"Gone!"

"Gone?"

Looking at the other stinky tofu still floating in the pot, Sid didn't understand what the other party meant.

It was still Moth who was next to him and explained in time: "If you finish buying, others will have nothing to eat. There are still many delicious snacks over there, why don't you go and try them?"

"So this is ah!"

Sid suddenly realized.

Indeed, if such delicious stinky tofu is unlimited, it can be hoarded and sold for a second time to earn the difference if it is bought by one person.

Set a uniform price, everyone can only buy one bowl.

The owner of this stall is really weird, he is much more conscientious than those greedy bosses in Qinggang New City!

With the members of the mission who had finished eating stinky tofu, Sid quickly went to the next house.

This time it was small wontons, still a bowl per person.

A group of people sat on the open table of the booth and devoured it. It took less than three minutes for them to get up and go to the next one.

The purchasing power of a piece of gold is still quite strong.

Even if you bring it to the Clear Harbor Shelter, you can still trade a lot of supplies.

However, in this Tianyuan territory, its purchasing power seems to have weakened.

When there was only the last copper coin left in his hand, Sid was shocked to find that he and others had eaten more than ten stalls.

Calculated according to the average price of four iron coins, twelve eat a small stall and have to pay 5 copper coins.

Even now, there are still some stalls that offer discounts to the mission team, otherwise they would have been wiped out long ago.

"Are you full?"

"I'm not full!"

Sam wanted to say something against his will, but when he loosened his belt, he felt that he was going to do it again.

The rest of the soldiers licked their mouths, including Pine, and they all showed unsatisfied expressions.

"But our money."

"It's okay, I brought a piece of gold with me when I went out, let's exchange it!"

Sam boldly took out a small gold nugget from his trouser pocket, which was about the same size as Sid's before.

This was Edmund's secret order to him before he went out to see if he could buy some weapons in the Tianyuan Refuge to study back, or buy some special products here before deciphering the super weapons.

Now it is taken out and exchanged for money to eat.

No psychological pressure.

"This piece can be exchanged for seventy copper coins!"

The fluttering moth's eyes lit up.

Good guy, as expected of a group of local tyrants, this piece of gold is at least 80 grams.

"Change, please trouble Mr. Wang Yang!"

"No trouble, no trouble!"

Fluttering Moth threw off his legs and ran towards the logistics department.

He felt that if he was one step slower, the cooks behind who were waiting to gain experience could kill him with their eyes.

Taking advantage of this gap, the mission team came to sit down at the stall where they had eaten before.

Although the food was delicious, they did not forget the most important purpose of this trip.

Sam coughed lightly, and quietly took out the communicator from his arms.

This is used to communicate with the industrial core, the closer the distance, the stronger the communication signal.

When approaching the western suburbs, the communication signal continued to rise.

At this time, we have arrived at the Tianyuan Territory.

"Well, why is it still a half-dead signal?"

Sid glanced at it, frowning.

It stands to reason that the farther to the west, the stronger the signal grid should be.

But now there is still only one grid displayed on it, which means that everyone is not close to the core.

In other words, it is farther away from the core.

"Maybe this Tianyuan Sanctuary didn't take away our core, the previous inferences were all wrong."

"It's possible." Sam quickly clicked and confirmed several times, nodded and said: "No response, it seems that the Tianyuan Sanctuary is not the one who took the core."

"That's just right, our mission today has been completed."

As the highlight of this trip, since the core was confirmed not to be in the Tianyuan Refuge, they had no other way to investigate.

You can't go to the other party directly, and say that we know that the core is with you, so if you hand it over now, you can let the past go, right?

This method of blowing up Hu may have been feasible half a year ago, but it is now.

That disappearing lightning wall is the perfect example.

If they dare to threaten, I am afraid that tomorrow these lunatics will teach the remaining walls and even the shelter below the ground an unforgettable lesson.

"Then the remaining tasks are to detect explosives and bring some scarce commodities back."

"Let's search for explosives first."

Taking back the device used to transmit signals with the industrial core, Sam took out the analyzer with explosive fragments stuck in it.

This is a traceability device made from that piece of explosion debris.

By blasting the material of the interior debris, the same wave can be generated if a homologous object is nearby.

After receiving the same wave, based on the magnitude, it is possible to infer how much stock the other party has.

However, the accuracy is definitely not good enough, but this is already the limit that Sunshine Harbor Refuge can achieve in just a few days.

It was the first time they had seen this strange substance, and they couldn't even analyze the principle of the explosion.

"Do you have?"

"No."

Sam shook his head in disappointment, staring blankly at the display marked '0' on the device.

In fact, it's not a big problem. How could such a precious explosive be placed in the monitoring range casually?

As long as they are consciously placed in the signal shielding room, this device will have no effect at all

etc.

The numbers are moving!

In less than ten seconds, watching the number suddenly change from '0' to '1', a trace of excitement flashed across Sam's face.

I didn't expect that the other party really didn't care about this thing, so they could detect it.

It's true that we can't find where the object to be probed is now, but in the future, we can always locate the same wave!

As long as some samples can be brought back from here, there will always be a day when the principle of this substance will be broken out.

You must not startle the snake.

After the number is detected, the task is equivalently completed.

But just as Sam was about to turn off the device and put it back in his arms, the numbers on it began to jump rapidly.

From 1 to 10, it only takes about a moment.

Then the number was like a rocket, and it exploded in less than ten seconds!

Burst?

Fuck!

Seeing the four-digit '9999', Sam was dumbfounded, and Sid next to him was also completely stunned.

What does this mean?

According to the backward calculations of the guys in the research room of the shelter, about ten units of this material were used to blow up the Lightning Wall.

So now the detected 9999, doesn't it mean that the other party is fully capable of taking Qinggang Sanctuary.

No, 9999 is not the final value, but the detected upper limit.

Those same waves are still returning, it's just that this device is no longer capable of receiving and analyzing them.

Could it be that they have the ability to bring the entire city to self-destruct?

This discovery made the two people who knew it feel a little thorny, as if there was a bomb sitting under their buttocks.

But for the other fighters who were still waiting to exchange money to continue eating, it had no effect.

Soon, a familiar figure came into their eyes.

The fluttering moth almost rushed back with the money at a fast running speed, and there was still unwiped sweat on his forehead.

"Continue to eat, or."

"Eat, we can't affect the overall situation anyway."

The two looked at each other, and both could see the helplessness in each other's eyes.

In less than half a day, two tasks have been completed, which should be a good thing.

But when they thought of the other party's hidden strength, they couldn't be happier.

Who would have thought that such a huge threat was still brewing in a place known as primitive people.

This is not good news for Sunny Harbor Refuge.

The sun is setting.

After the heavy rain, the fiery red morning glow spread all over the sky, as if it was burning.

Standing on the viewing platform at the top of the first floor of the refuge, watching the mission team get back on the carriage and leave.

Su Mo couldn't help showing a smile on his face.

"They're gone already?"

"Let's go. In fact, if we persuade them to stay, they will probably stay for another night."

Chen Shen next to him was also smiling.

"That's not necessary, anyway, this group of people didn't really come to talk about cooperation."

Su Mo shook his head and asked curiously, "How much gold did we receive in total today?"

"Three hundred and sixty grams!"

It really is a group of local tyrants.

Among the preparation materials for adventurer terminals, the most difficult thing to find is gold.

Rao is the two allies of Pingtan Refuge and Jucheng Refuge, and there are not many stocks in their hands.

The territory used several tons of materials, and only about two kilograms could be traded.

but now.

Just a group of missions from the Clear Harbor Refuge, they can produce more than 300 grams, which is enough to meet the needs of a thousand adventurer terminals.

"Let's do it next time, I feel like this won't be the first time they've come."

With the core of the nuclear power industry that can solve the urgent need, a little gold is no longer enough to make Sumo excited again.

In order to prevent these people from detecting the signals emitted by the core during the day, they have special means.

He also deliberately drove the motorized airship and took the core all the way to the west, just to deceive people.

Now.

With this group of people gone, it shouldn't be awkward to use the system to erase the signal transmission.

"Let Lu Kuan come to me and tell him"

"There's a big surprise!"
