Chapter 7

Among the same species of wild beasts, they can drop treasures of different grades.

This was a rule that Lu Yu had summarized before.

Lu Yu thought for a moment according to this rule.

The ordinary gray giant wolves dropped Big Red Pills. Then what would the leader of the gray giant wolves drop?

Big Red Pills were already the highest grade of Pill, and there were no corresponding Pills beyond that.

So, what it might drop—

[Healing Pill Manufacturing Blueprint]

In the game, as long as you have the blueprint and gather the necessary materials, you can manufacture the corresponding items.

Lu Yu felt that the gray giant wolf king dropping the blueprint was not just a figment of his imagination. He once saw a black giant eagle circling in the sky from afar.

This eagle was the leader of the tiger-headed eagle, can drop the item [C-grade Armor-Piercing Arrow Manufacturing Blueprint].

By extension, it was almost certain that the gray giant wolf king would drop the [Healing Pill Manufacturing Blueprint].

Lu Yu briefly mentioned this matter to Tai Li and other Matai people in his own way.

“I need to see the gray giant wolf king to confirm,” Lu Yu added.

Matai had already witnessed the magical powers of their witch and firmly believed in him. They were very excited about having a constant supply of healing pills. However, only Tai Li could make the decision.

Tai Li’s expression was serious. “We’ll discuss it further when we get back.”

Lu Yu nodded. This matter couldn’t be rushed. They needed to discuss where the gray giant wolf king was, how to find it, and how to kill it once they found it.

After collecting enough wild pepper, they also gathered some wild vegetables in a certain part of the jungle.

Lu Yu was pleasantly surprised to find ginger and garlic. On their way back, they passed by the lake and collected a lot of salt rocks, as well as caught a dozen fat and fresh fish.

When the sun reached its highest point in the sky, wisps of smoke rose from Matai’ cave.

There were four large bonfires, each with sizzling and fragrant roasted meat on top.

Lu Yu explained the method and key points of roasting meat to Matai twice, distributed the seasonings to them, gave them some guidance, and then went to roast fish on a small bonfire that Shan Pu had prepared for him.

The boy whom Lu Yu had given the Small Red Pill, Shi Tou, and the girl whom Lu Yu had fed, Xiao Shui, sat around Lu Yu’s bonfire with five or six other little oness.

Lu Yu smiled, “Aren’t you going to eat meat?” Just now, when the other Matai people heard that he was going to roast fish, they all shook their heads, saying that fish tasted too fishy and had bones, so they didn’t want to eat it at all.

The little radishes shook their heads. “We want to eat what the witch made.”

They were really smart little treasures.

Lu Yu readily agreed, “Okay.”

He placed a thin stone slab on the bonfire, heated up some oil from the fat of the elephant meat, and seasoned it with the finely crushed spices and salt, spreading it delicately on the prepared fish.

As soon as the fish was placed on the stone slab, it sizzled.

Lu Yu watched the heat and occasionally flipped the fish with a bamboo stick.

After about ten minutes, the fish was almost cooked.

He looked up and found that there were Matai people surrounding him, all of them salivating.

Lu Yu: …

Each person received a small piece of fish.

The fish was delicate and smooth, and with the addition of extra wild pepper, it melted in the mouth, fresh, fragrant, and spicy.

Shan Pu was the first to express his feelings, his face full of astonishment. “This… is too delicious, isn’t it?!”

The other Matai people nodded frantically, expressing their approval.

“It’s really delicious!! Not at all fishy!”

“It’s even more tender than roasted meat!”

“I like eating fish!”

Compliments were useless!
