Chapter 1165: First-Class Ingredients
Lu Shu had been following a herd of antelopes for a long time. These antelopes were not as strong and tough as the cows, but they were quite fast.
When Lu Shu chased them, the antelopes were able to kick up clouds with their feet. It was hard to see them.
As expected, the creatures in the remains all had special characteristics. But it was not realistic for them to outrun a master. Lu Shu caught one and wanted to taste what a higher-leveled creature tasted like.
When the antelopes were chased, they only cared about running away. They did not try to attack Lu Shu.
No matter whether it was the cows or antelopes, they all made Lu Shu feel like he was living in the wilderness of the cultivation realm. There was a food chain and various species of animals. The animals were stronger, but they did not attack humans like imagined.
This was a post-evolution world. It showed Lu Shu how the Earth might become in a few decades, or even a few centuries. Humans could fly into the sky or go underground, but other creatures could eat lightning and create clouds!
But the antelope meat did not disappoint Lu Shu. He took one bite and could already taste the quality of first-class ingredients.
It did not melt in his mouth, but the smell of the meat was refreshing. The fat in the meat was cooked. When he took a bite of the meat, the outside was crisp, while the inside was tender!
This time, Israel did not complain about Lu Shu’s fees. She was far too hungry and far too thirsty. But she thought about it and said, “I will only pay for my share!”
She had just encountered the most sinister people on Earth. When she thought about how her companions did not try to save her when she was in danger, she was upset.
Perhaps she would put aside her grudges after some time and calmly scrutinize others, but she was upset now. Every ordinary person would have this kind of feelings.
In the end, Israel was a layman. She was an ordinary person.
As for Lu Shu… Israel felt that he was a true layman…
But now, she only trusted Lu Shu.
“You can drink the water. This antelope had been drinking water here.” Lu Shu smiled. “But I suggest that you boil the water for 20 minutes before drinking it. You’ve seen what kind of place this is. All the animals here are much stronger than on Earth. Bacteria would have evolved as well. They might have evolved to an unimaginable level. The antelope might be able to withstand it, but you might not.”
Lu Shu knew that besides the new lay person, the rest of them were ordinary people.
Magical energy spurred the evolution of creatures. Bacteria were creatures as well. Many people felt that bacteria were not a threat, but reality would teach them otherwise…
It would be more than a correction of their beliefs…
The others had taken out cheques to pass to Lu Shu. Lu Shu beamed with joy. Every time he entered the remains, it was like a plentiful harvest for him. He knew that not everyone would be able to pay him the full amount.
Many people thought that foreigners were very rich. But a hundred thousand dollars was not a small amount for foreigners. Compared to Iron Man, The Pursuit of Happiness would allow more people to understand how the lives of the lower class in other countries was like.
But Lu Shu did not take them seriously. He knew that if they did not eat or drink, they would definitely die.
To Lu Shu, food was something he could easily obtain. Could he really watch these people die just like that? No.
Most people with moral values, compassion, and sympathy would not be able to do so.
When Israel took a bite, she felt the fatigue in her body rapidly disappear. Perhaps this was the miraculous element of high-leveled creatures!
It had been two days since they entered the remains. They were starving. They quietly ate and tasted the miracle of antelope meat.
Israel took off her shoes. The blisters on her feet had started to rapidly heal. Her scabs fell off even before she finished eating.
“What class is this antelope?” Israel looked at Lu Shu and asked.
“Probably a Rank Five,” said Lu Shu as he happily at the meat. However, he knew that this antelope was probably a peak Rank Two!
He cut another piece of antelope meat and cooked it above the fire. Israel was like a changed person. She asked Lu Shu many questions, while the rest looked on helplessly.
Israel was suddenly excited about the realm of cultivation, all because of a piece of antelope meat.
She was one of the first few reporters to dive into the cultivation realm. She liked supernatural worlds, but she could not awaken.
Now, a piece of meat had healed all her fatigue. She even felt full of energy. She felt like a young child reading Harry Potter. All the magical spells attracted you, making you wish you could live in their world.
It was said that one would not feel regret, even if they did not receive offer letters from Tsinghua University and Peking University. The most sorrowful thing was not receiving an invitation from the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Lu Shu felt as if there was a mosquito beside his ear while he was eating. Suddenly, Israel asked, “What kind of power did you want most as a child?”
Lu Shu thought about it and said, “Invisibility.”
“What would you want to do after gaining invisibility?” Israel continued to ask.
Lu Shu paused for two seconds. Then, he said, “I want to quietly sit here and eat.”
“From Israel Moore’s distress, +666!”
Israel admitted that she relied on Lu Shu. She even enjoyed this feeling as it made her feel safe.
There were times when she thought, although Lu Shu was not very powerful, it was not bad being with a guy like him.
On the other hand, the female Practitioner was more active. She had entered the remains before. Thus, she was used to this kind of situation. She even used her advantage as a female to exchange for benefits from male secret practitioners.
Thus, while others were still recovering from their fright, the female Practitioner stuck close to Lu Shu.
It was a pity that Lu Shu was not like those male secret practitioners. He knew how to properly reject such “acts of kindness” from female secret practitioners. The female secret practitioner also learned quickly that Lu Shu was not that kind of person.
Israel saw all of this. She suddenly felt that this young man was not bad. It was just that he was a few years younger than her. Would he be fine with the female being older… what was she thinking about?!
Lu Shu looked at the sky. “We have to leave this place and find another place to set up camp.”
“Why don’t we set up camp here?” Someone asked. “There is water here.”
Lu Shu smiled. “The creatures here will find water too. You should be thankful that they have not come.”
Everyone was shocked by this. They quickly packed their belongings. Lu Shu did not even have to pack the leftover antelope meat. Someone had already packed it.
Everyone tried their best to show their value as they wanted to survive.
The antelope was food for everyone. They could not throw it away.
But they did not know that the entire herd of antelopes was in the Seal of Lands… was Lu Shu the kind to only capture an antelope? Evidently not…
