Chapter 297 - Fruit (2/2)

Xiao Liang pursed his lips and said, “It’s a pity that the sea unicorn’s horn broke. However, it doesn’t matter. A sea unicorn like this can sustain people for a long time.”

The submarine was still moving forward. The Narwhal no longer posed any danger. A few small boats had surrounded it and started the final battle. Before Xiao Liang could get everyone to return to the submarine, the submarine moved toward a small island.

Xiao Liang said, “Actually, the main reason I invited you here is to let you take a look at this island.”

The submarine, which was too big, stopped hundreds of meters away from the island. At that moment, Xiao Liang took a step and crossed the sea. Moments later, he arrived on the island. Wei Huo took a step and arrived on the island as well. The other Legendary creatures flew over and landed on the island.

When they arrived, Wei Huo asked, “What’s so special about this island? Why did you invite us here?”

Xiao Liang led everyone forward and said, “Come with me. There’s a delicacy on this island that none of you could expect.”

Xiao Liang kept leading everyone forward. Soon, they arrived in front of a forest. The trees there looked like coconut trees, but the fruits were not coconuts.

Wei Huo was a little surprised when he saw the fruit trees, as they looked familiar.

Xiao Liang said, “I call these fruit trees Instant Noodle Fruit Trees. The fruits of these trees are too similar to instant noodles. You guys could never imagine the taste!”

Everyone was confused. What were instant noodles?

Xiao Liang smiled and did not say anything. Wei Huo did not explain much either. This was food that only people from their era knew. People from this era could no longer enjoy such delicacies.

Wei Huo looked at the Instant Noodle Fruit Trees. These trees were similar to coconut trees, and there were fist-sized fruits on them. However, a few of the fruits had cracked because they were ripe. Noodle-like fruit flesh fell from the cracked fruits. Their appearance and color were exactly the same as those of instant noodles.

Xiao Liang personally plucked some fruits and built a fire on the ground. He then took an iron pot and poured water in it.

Lu Qiqi, who was very good at cooking, asked in confusion, “Do you need to cook this fruit?”

Xiao Liang nodded. “Yes, you can also boil it in hot water. It will be edible in three minutes, but it will be better if it’s cooked thoroughly.”

Lu Qiqi immediately understood and said, “I see. No wonder it’s called Instant Noodle Fruit. It’s really convenient.”

Wei Huo was speechless.

It was indeed convenient. In the past, instant noodles had to be manufactured. Now, there was no need to manufacture them anymore. One could just pluck them from a tree.

Xiao Liang cut open a fruit and the instant noodles inside fell into the iron pot. Then, Xiao Liang sprinkled them with a lot of spices. Soon, a fragrance entered everyone’s noses.

Wei Huo plucked a few Instant Noodle Fruits and stored them in his inventory. He had started collecting plant seeds that he had never seen before.
