() Bai Yi and the others' purpose is to see how the remaining evolved humans are doing on Devil's Island. It's a pity that after walking for more than a week, in the vast jungle of Devil's Island, no other evolved humans were found at all. Let alone humans, there was not even the slightest trace of humans. It was as if... they were all dead.
"I haven't met a single human being!" Woolf said boredly when he paused.
"Well, I haven't met anyone." Bai Yi nodded.
Basically all the evolved humans on the southern peninsula of Devil's Island gathered in Christchurch. As for the number of people who escaped from that beast raid, there must not have been many people, probably less than 10,000. After more than a year, it is estimated that even fewer people will survive, which is why Bai Yi and the others have not met anyone.
"Get some food first, and then we go to the tomb city!" Bai Yi said.
No one had any objection. Although New City of Christ had become a tomb city, it was still the city they had worked hard for. Not just for remembrance, but also for the possibility that there are traces of other evolved humans nearby. But this is all speculation, and a trip is needed to confirm it. The most important thing now is to fill our stomachs.
Bai Yi and Betsy are both chefs, so they will definitely not offend everyone. The task of finding ingredients was left to a few guys who had nothing to do. In fact, it is also very exciting to see what food everyone can find every day. Soon, Woolf came back, holding a bunch of fruits in his hand. This kind of fruit looks like a fox tail, with many hard thorns at the end. In the middle, there are two football-sized, black and red fruits like pimples.
"What's this?"
"I don't know what it is, I just asked if I could eat it." Woolf looked at Nancy.
Nancy is a pharmacist, and she learned very comprehensively during her time in Christchurch. It must be Nancy's task to try drugs or something. Now everyone knows that if Nancy hadn't confirmed it, they wouldn't have dared to eat a lot of things, otherwise they would have deserved it if they accidentally ate them to death.
"Let's cut one open and take a look!" Nancy said, picking up her scalpel. However, Nancy frowned when she pressed the scalpel on the fruit.
Bai Yi took a look, took a fruit, and cut it hard. It's so hard. Under the layer of fluff on the surface, the peel inside is as hard as steel. Bai Yi's alien energy penetrated the blade, then he slowly applied force and cut it. With a pop, the football-sized fruit was finally cut in half by Bai Yi, revealing the black flesh inside. Looking at it this way, this thing doesn't really look like it's edible, but whether it's edible or not depends not just on its color.
Nancy immediately started testing whether the stuff was poisonous and if they could eat it.
"Okay, non-toxic!" Nancy nodded quickly.
As long as it is non-toxic, at least no one will die after eating it. As for how to make it delicious, it is Bai Yi and Betsy's task. Bai Yi stretched out his finger, dipped it in some juice, and then licked it.
Taste test!
For unfamiliar things, first determine whether they are poisonous, and then Bai Yi and Betsy will taste them and discuss a cooking method. You can’t just decide how to cook unfamiliar ingredients when you get them.
Bai Yi frowned as soon as he licked it. He didn't know how to describe the smell. It smells like rust and astringency, and is extremely strong. Even if this fruit is not poisonous, I would not dare to eat it. When Becky saw Bai Yi's face, she couldn't help but taste it, and then frowned as well. The stronger the taste of food, the more difficult it is to handle it. For example, in the human world, the fishy smell needs to be covered up with ingredients.
"It smells weird?" The others were happy when they saw their faces.
"It smells astringent and rusty. Try it. If it's not necessary, don't eat it." Bai Yi said.
After hearing this, everyone tried the taste. Almost everyone, like Bai Yi and the others, had no feeling for this thing. However, only Woolf tasted it, then licked his mouth, and then dug out a small piece of pulp and threw it into his mouth. When everyone saw Woolf's actions, they guessed 80% of it...!
"I need this!" said Woolf.
This fruit was found by Woolf himself, and it was indeed the ingredient that Woolf needed.
After entering the metamorphosis stage, Bai Yi's food habits became very serious. It's not that they can't eat ordinary food, but after Bai Yi and others entered the metamorphosis stage, they all felt that ordinary food could not promote their physical changes. But Bai Yi and the others didn't know exactly what elements they wanted to absorb. They could only have a vague sense of what they felt was right.
A fruit like this must contain some ingredient that is completely useless to other people, maybe non-toxic, but the taste is definitely not suitable for them. But for Woolf, maybe there is something in this fruit that he needs. When this ingredient is absorbed into his body, his body will automatically adjust and then gradually change.
—This itself is the true meaning of metamorphosis!
"I understand. Do you want to eat it directly or do we make it?" Bai Yi asked.
"It's better to do it. It tastes too bad. If you eat it raw, I'm afraid I'll vomit." Woolf said with a frown. Although everyone who enters lv2 can roughly feel what ingredients they need. But sometimes, these ingredients are really unpalatable.
"Then let's try our best to make it taste better for you." Bai Yi nodded.
Woolf caught a prey and more than a dozen strange fruits and came back, but on the other side, Pupu and Roman hadn't returned yet. Just when Bai Yi and the others were worried that something had happened to the two guys, Sha Pi suddenly stood up and looked uneasily at the direction where Pu Pu and the others had left. Everyone couldn't help but be slightly wary when they saw Shapi's actions. What is the thing that can make Shapi so wary
Seeing that Shapi was not only on guard, but had even started to retreat, Bai Yi immediately put his hand on the handle of the knife.
what!
When everyone was guessing like this, the wind direction suddenly changed, and Bai Yi and the others changed from upwind to downwind. Within a moment, everyone's faces suddenly changed drastically, and Shapi's body was even more shaky. .
It stinks!
From that direction, the wind blew a strange odor that was simply indescribable. When Bai Yi and the others smelled this smell, they couldn't help but want to vomit out everything in their stomachs. Shapi had the best nose, and it was obvious that he had smelled this smell before, even against the wind, so he couldn't help but retreat.
At this time, everyone discovered that there were two figures staggering towards here, Pupu and Roman!
Looking at the shit-yellow juice stained on the two bodies and the smell floating on them, everyone knew where the smell came from. It could be seen that Pupu and Roman were almost fainted by the smell, but they still insisted on walking back.
"Don't come over, you two idiots, don't come over, do you hear me?" Woolf covered his nose and shouted loudly at the other side.
Not to be outdone, Sharpei stood on the ground on all fours and started roaring at Roman and Pupu over there. Sharpei's posture was extremely ferocious, even more ferocious than meeting a life or death enemy. However, Sharpei's movement only lasted for less than a few seconds. Pupu, not afraid of death, even accelerated his speed and ran towards this side. Sharpei suddenly panicked, and immediately ran out in the opposite direction like a dead dog. This was the first time that Sharpei was chased by Pupu.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh, but they couldn't laugh at all, if it weren't for the stench.
"Puff, I found a plant with some fruits on it. I was dragged to collect it, but I just collected one and I couldn't bear it." Roman covered his nose and picked out a pineapple-like fruit. Throw it over.
At such a long distance, Bai Yi subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch it. But he regretted it as soon as he took it in his hand. Bai Yi almost fainted at that moment. The dark yellow juice on the surface of the fruit was just like the things accumulated in a latrine, and the smell was even worse. And nothing less. The most important thing is that as soon as Bai Yi took it in his hand, the juice splashed out, and Bai Yi's face changed drastically.
The wind blows people three thousand miles!
Everyone around Bai Yi suddenly ran away. Bai Yi couldn't help but almost rolled his eyes, but he still carefully placed the thing on the tree stump. There is no need to confirm Pu Pu's spiritual nature for a long time. Since this thing was found by Pu Pu, it must have extraordinary effects. But... it still stinks too much.
"Puff, eat!" Puff hummed and said a simple human language. Recently, Bai Yi and the others have discovered that after entering the metamorphosis period, Shapi and the others' voices have changed slightly, and they have gradually become able to speak human language.
"Eat!?" Bai Yi looked at Pupu.
"Puff, it's suitable for level 2 perverts." Puff said this in a weird voice.
After saying this, everyone looked at the fruit with pus leaking from its surface. It is suitable for lv2 perverts. Pupu did not say who it is suitable for. In other words, is it suitable for all lv2 perverts? If this were not the case, Pupu probably would not be able to get this thing back. But, oh my god, do you really want to eat this? Everyone couldn't help but roll their eyes when they smelled the smell that was so suffocating.
Bai Yi looked at everyone. In an instant, everyone who was seen by Bai Yi was startled and jumped far away, fearing that Bai Yi would catch him and become the first unlucky person to taste this fruit. When Bai Yi saw everyone's actions, he couldn't help but want to curse and run so fast.
"You bastards, find me a place to clean up quickly." Bai Yi roared loudly.
"You are actually the smelliest person." Woolf muttered softly. Isn't it? It was Bai Yi who had quick eyes and quick hands just now and was the first to catch this fruit.
"Hmph!" Bai Yi snorted coldly, pretending to be intimidating, and immediately turned around and rushed out towards the river not far away. The others also laughed and followed Bai Yi. They were standing next to Bai Yi just now, and they also splashed a lot of that juice.
