Chapter 270 - Unexpected Encounter With An Epic (1/2)
Continuing on the journey, Zhang Che didn’t encounter any other powerful exotic beasts.
His capable babies cleared the way forward. By nighttime, Zhang Che had advanced about three hundred kilometers from where he started.
At night, although the environment might not necessarily be as dangerous as in the beast world, Zhang Che didn’t dare to continue travelling regardless. It would be disastrous if he was careless and ran into a powerful exotic beast’s territory.
In order to prevent ambushes from exotic beasts during the night, Zhang Che directly had the Purple Crystal Tortoise dig out a tunnel at the base of a mountain that reached the rock strata.
Afterwards, he had the Purple Crystal Tortoise seal the entrance and expand the area inside. He was then fully assured and started preparing his dinner.
He didn’t bring out the meat jerky stored in his spatial-type bracelet. Instead, Zhang Che brought out the game he had hunted today and cut out large pieces of meat from them. Next, he had the Purple Crystal Tortoise spit out a few bone spikes and skewered them through the meat, applied spices to them and stabbed the bone spikes into the rock wall.
Afterwards, the Scarlet Flame Drake opened its mouth and breathed out a few streams of flames at a controlled temperature, roasting the kebabs he prepared. Not long after, the kebabs were fully cooked.
Not only that, since the Scarlet Flame Drake’s flames were produced from the fire elements in its body, Zhang Che didn’t have to worry about exhausting the oxygen in the cave, nor would it emit smoke. It was simply an all-natural, non-polluting source of flame.
A thick fragrance of cooking meat spread out in the cave, leaving Zhang Che swallowing hard.
As expected, the fragrance of exotic beast meat was the best!
When the kebabs were fully cooked, the Scarlet Flame Drake withdrew its flames. Zhang Che immediately started feasting on one.
However, he was still considered conscientious. He thought of the frisky monkey, who had achieved great merits by helping to tame the Mutated Giant Ape, and Summoned him with a wave of his hand.
“Zhizhi, zhizhi!”
The frisky monkey jumped about excitedly the moment he appeared, especially after he smelled the fragrant meat. He nearly wept from happiness!
-It wasn’t easy! After being locked up by this unconscientious master in that little dark house for so long, I finally got my break!-
As such, he immediately rushed up with no hesitation and grabbed hold of the end of a bone spike, pulling it out of the wall, and tore large mouthfuls of meat from the dripping kebab.
While he ate, the frisky monkey let out unintelligible sounds, his ugly face showing a drunken smile.
Zhang Che sighed. -Looks like I really locked him up for too long. When the time is right, it’s not like I can’t have him appear at my side as my pet in the future. He doesn’t have to return to my spiritual sea unless there is no other choice.-
Moreover, with the healing-type “godly beast” Unicorn, he could have the Unicorn heal the frisky monkey even if he was injured. There was no need to heal him by using the rainbow crystal’s energy.
“Eat slowly, or you’ll choke to death.”
Soon, the frisky monkey finished the large kebab, drawing Zhang Che’s amused scolding. He also grabbed another one of the skewers and tore large mouthfuls of meat off of it.
Among his pets, although the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus and Mutated Giant Ape were sure to love eating meat, Zhang Che wouldn’t dare to Summon them here.
The Mutated Giant Ape was slightly better. The Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus’ appetite was truly too big. Even though the advanced Scarlet Flame Drake had become a powerful meat roaster, it wouldn’t be able to satisfy that fellow’s stomach without an hour or two of work.
Close to fifty kilograms of meat were finished by Zhang Che and the frisky monkey in slightly less than an hour. In order to alleviate the greasy feeling, Zhang Che purposefully took out a small pile of compressed biscuits, and the “father and son” duo continued eating.
