Chapter 65: Small Oven, Poison During Disaster
Mcgee had not heard from Irene for a long time, and he did not want to ask.
After all, it would be awkward for anyone to ask.
He could not help anyone, so he did not speak up.
In fact, he could imagine how Irene would end up.
She would either die or survive.
If she could survive, it should be possible with her ident.i.ty as a missionary and the ability of the slave contract.
The rainstorm had sealed off heaven and earth. The trapped Beast Masters could do nothing, so the chatbox became lively again.
All kinds of pictures and messages were displayed on it.
Mcgee also had nothing to do. While making some deals on the marketplace, he quietly watched the screen. He actually felt very happy.
“Brothers, who can save me in the desert? The storm is so heavy that even my wooden house has collapsed.”
The house in the desert was not stable, to begin with. The rain brought the ground down, so it would be strange if the house did not collapse.
“Brother, I remember you. Didn’t you say that the desert was hot as a dog and there was no water to drink? Aren’t you happy now that you got what you wanted?”
“Brother, you should be content. After all, only your house collapsed. My f*cking house was flooded and I’m lying on the roof.”
“Hahaha… everyone is so miserable. I’m on the mountainside and the rain can’t reach me… f*ck, the mudslide, I’m f*cked!”
This person was so proud that he was facing a disaster.
Immediately, the news changed.
“Bro, you have to be honest.”
“Bro, you’re not going to hang up, are you?”
“Brother, listen to this brother’s advice. I’ll treat you to a steak.”
“Haha… I’ll treat you to a steak too. You have to hold on.”
“Brother, if you’re still here, let me know. I’ll call the ambulance for you.”
“A good person has a safe life!”
“A good person has a safe life + 1!”
Unfortunately, everyone could only speak once a day in the chatbox. Whether the person who encountered the mudslide was alive or dead, no one could do anything about it.
Soon, another person started a conversation.
“Which one of you wants to eat rat meat? It’s fresh and free, and you can eat as much as you want.”
There was a picture at the back: Inside the wooden house, there was a dense group of gray-haired rats. They were as big as soccer b.a.l.l.s, and not only did they occupy the entire room, they were piled up to the height of a table.
From the looks of it, the nearby rats probably had no place to hide from the rain, so they all ran into the player’s house.
During the maintenance period, all the monsters had yellow names. As long as people did not provoke them, the monsters would not take the initiative to attack. That was why there was a harmonious scene of humans and rats living together.
However, the chatbox was immediately filled with joy.
“Brother, you’re amazing. In just a few days, you’ve raised a house full of rats.”
“These rat concubines are so docile. I’m envious…”
“Brother, take it easy. Take care of your body and restrain your desires.”
“The rat meat is three yuan each and three for ten yuan each.”
“What a brave man. He has surrounded a house full of rats.”
“Please give me a rat. I’m really hungry. I’ve eaten all the food except for the soil. Big brother, please do me a favor.”
“Then you’d better eat dirt. Who dares to provoke this house of rats?”
…
Mcgee watched for more than an hour and felt frustrated. In the end, he could not help but feel a little hungry.
He had to get something to eat first.
However, the stove and charcoal were soaked in water and could not be used anymore. It was useless to just have a barbecue grill. He could not let the Little Spirit Fox make a fireball to roast meat. He did not want to eat dirt yet.
At this moment, Romon made a trade request, and Mcgee chose to accept it.
“Boss, I have collected the porcelain clay you wanted. This thing is not easy to get. If it was not for the rainstorm that trapped everyone, others might not have sold it.”
“System notification: You have received porcelain clay x10.”
[Porcelain clay: a rare semi-finished material, used to make raw materials for household appliances.]
With all the materials, Mcgee immediately took out the small oven blueprint.
[Small oven blueprint: Fire Crystal Core * 3, Iron Block * 2, Thunder Crystal Core * 1, Porcelain Clay * 8, hot fluid * 1. With all the above materials, you can make a small oven.]
“System notification: Small oven blueprint * 1 detected. Do you want to learn it?”
Did he even need to think about it? Of course, he wanted to learn it immediately.
There was no time to waste when it came to solving the stomach problem.
Although some materials were rare, such as porcelain clay, thunder crystal core, and hot fluid, they could not be used for interest. If they were placed in the inventory, they would not even be able to eat ash. It would be a waste not to use them.
[System notification: you have learned how to make a small oven.]
[System notification: Enough materials detected. Do you want to make a small oven?]
After Mcgee agreed, a ‘synthesize’ b.u.t.ton appeared on the small oven interface.
“System notification: You have successfully made a small oven.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a new icon appeared in the inventory. It looked like an oven.
Mcgee took it out and looked at its hidden notification.
[Small oven: Used to roast food. Can roast meat, corn, cake, sweet potatoes, etc. As the hot fluid used is magma, it contains a terrifyingly high temperature. It can be used continuously for 180 hours without being plugged in. The roasting efficiency has been increased to 300% when it is charged.]
It actually had a service life.
That was true. After all, if this thing did not use electricity, it would consume the heat from the magma.
Currently, most people did not have electricity. Even Mcgee, who had a small generator, did not have enough electricity because he had lost the water generator.
Mcgee took out a piece of beef and placed it in the middle of the upper baking tray. He also placed a few pieces of pork around it.
There was no need to remove the fis.h.i.+ness from the beef and pork. He only needed to add a little sauce and salt to marinate them for ten minutes.
During this period of time, he had traded a lot of things. Naturally, he also had some seasonings.
After setting a time to start roasting, Mcgee took out the first batch of sweet potatoes he had harvested and handed them over to Omori to clean.
After was.h.i.+ng the sweet potatoes, the roasting meat was also completed. The moment he took them out, the aroma of the meat permeated the air, causing Omori and the tamed beasts to drool uncontrollably.
The s.p.a.ce in the small oven was limited, and the amount of roasted meat was not much. They definitely could not eat without restraint.
“Omori, help me roast half of these sweet potatoes first.”
“Yes, master. I’ll definitely roast them quickly and well.”
Omori was very attentive, but his gaze remained on the roasting tray. To be exact, it was the roasted meat on the tray.
Mcgee smiled slightly. He took a photo first, uploaded it to the chatbox, and even added a sentence.
“Is everyone okay? I’m hungry anyway, so I’ll eat first as a token of respect. Ps. Every 10 minutes, a batch of roasted sweet potatoes will be provided. They’re fragrant, warm, and limited in quant.i.ty. First come, first served.”
He clicked send.
Following that, the chatbox exploded.
“Why don’t you eat minced meat?”
“Using roasted sweet potatoes as an excuse to look down on someone? Caw caw caw… who, who’s singing?”
“My stomach is filled with disappointing tears.”
“The big boss is indeed a big boss. During the disaster period, he released poison and was full of evil.”
“Big boss, I’ll give you a thumbs up for your coin collection. One b.u.t.ton, three rows. Can you give me a sweet potato? I’m starving to the point of being a skeleton.”
“Is the big boss cheating? Why does he have everything? Tell me the method, and I’ll give you my sister.”
“I don’t agree to this marriage. But, boss, look at me. I have everything I want. The key is that I’m good-looking.”
“…”
