Under the dim sunlight.

In that spot on the plain, within the eye-catching trees.

The ants attacking Kane and the others were spread all over the ground.

"How about that, Lulu's elemental creatures are pretty amazing, right?" Lulu said, crossing her arms in front of her chest, looking smug.

Hearing Lulu's words, Kane asked curiously, "Elemental creatures?"

Look for yourself, does this butterfly resemble an elemental creature at all.

Upon hearing Kane's doubts, Lulu lifted her head and proudly explained, "Hmph! This is Lulu's masterpiece, the combination of the Spirits Awakening spell and the elemental plane prototype, the first batch of elemental life forms."

Recently, Kane had been delving into magic theory, and upon hearing Lulu's words, he rubbed his chin and started to ponder.

After thinking for a while, he caught the key point.

The Spirits Awakening spell can awaken the intelligence of ordinary animals and plants, and intelligence is the foundation where the soul ignites.

Once gaining intelligence, these ordinary animals instinctively begin to absorb the surrounding magic power.

In an elemental plane rich in fairy tale magic, the type of magic they would absorb is evident.

Rich single-attribute magic power will alter the physical structure of these animals and plants.

But honestly, Kane truly didn't know what the result would be if they absorbed too much fairy tale elements.

After solving the problem, Kane stopped worrying and, seeing Meizike and Longbei starting to pick up the ants on the ground, Kane intervened.

"No need to bother, just watch me now."

After saying that, Kane directly used magic power to create a mechanical structure with a long pipe, and when activated, a powerful suction emerged from the pipe, pulling the ants and some tiny dust particles from the ground into the machine.

Once all the ants were sucked in, in the rear compartment, he used a few layers of sieves to sort them out, expelling the stones and gravel that had been sucked in.

This entire process, under Kane's origin skills, was completed in less than two minutes.

Recently, Kane had been researching those DIY appliances from time to time.

Looking at the gloomy weather, Kane suggested, "Let's find a good spot to camp; though this forest is fine, there are still plenty of ants below, and if they become bothersome again later, it would be quite annoying."

Upon hearing Kane's suggestion, everyone nodded, with no objections.

Then, following Kane's lead, they arrived at a sunken part of the plain; although it was a plain, the necessary undulations were still present.

Swiftly set up the temporary shelter.

Once inside, Kreya immediately carried three antelopes into the kitchen area and began processing them.

"Kane, could you dry these ants and grind them into powder for seasoning?"

Kreya asked Kane next to her, knowing that Kane's origin skills and his bizarre mechanical equipment had numerous functions.

"No problem."

Kane directly created a dryer, poured the ants in, and then controlled the temperature inside to rapidly dry the ants.

Under Kane's precise control, it didn't take long for the ants to become very dry, emitting a strong onion aroma, which alone was enough to whet one's appetite, though they hardly looked appetizing.

Finally, he used a machine to pulverize the ants into powder.

Like these powders, he sealed them up and handed them to Kreya.

And Kreya too had already dismembered those three antelopes one by one.

Kreya took the powder while watching Kane's actions.

At this point, Kane was tilting his face, pointing at his cheek with his finger.

Kreya gave Kane a little punch, then bent down to plant a kiss on his cheek, saying: "All done, good job, now go outside and wait."

Kane chuckled, then responded slightly, and directly exited the kitchen.

Left alone in the kitchen, Kreya touched her cheek, her face slightly red, then shook her head to focus on the task at hand.

To speak of why none of the monsters Kane and the others defeated yielded rewards, it was because the dungeon's operating rules had long been altered, and these living beings were no longer replicas, but genuine life forms.

With the tireless efforts of the dungeon's owner, this dungeon had established a stable ecosystem.

The bodies, plants, and ingredients here could be taken out of the dungeon; otherwise, City of Gastronomy would have a tough time functioning.

And the main reward this dungeon gave to explorers was these ingredients; once explorers collected these, they could directly sell them to the City of Gastronomy and receive an equivalent market price as reward.

Of course, one could also choose to keep them.

These are magic ingredients, rare outside, and what is the City of Gastronomy abundant in? Besides delicious food, it's surely chefs; here, every chef can handle magic ingredients.

Handing these collected ingredients to a chef to prepare for the explorers becomes a sure-fire way to enhance attributes, doesn't it?

Just by eating, one can enhance bodily attributes, something many wish for but can't have.

This is why explorers come here in an endless stream.

Kane didn't have to wait long outside before Kreya's roast lamb was ready.

They had a giant roast lamb before them, richly seasoned, with the most tantalizing scent being the onion aroma, though it couldn't escape a hint of tea; possibly due to cooking, that matcha transformed into a light tea fragrance.

Next to the roast lamb were five slender croissant-like breads, now no longer as hard as when alive, but soft like bread.

As for the other one, it was crumbled, scattered atop the roast lamb.

The various aromas mixed together and tantalized Kane and the others' spirits through their noses.

Of course, before eating, Kane habitually stretched out his hand to evaluate the dish.

This way, if the dish had any flaws, he could inform Kreya to help her improve her culinary skill.

[Eternal Lun Whole Lamb]

[Delicious Food]

[Color: Copper]

[Attributes: Permanently increases agility after consumption.]

[Description: A dish made from Bread Antelope, Scallion Ants, and Peace Fruit, all entwined together from birth till death, achieving the perfection of the current grade.]

(Enhances understanding of the cycle of fate.)

The introduction of the dish seemed entirely normal, fully within the copper grade, but the last phrase was exceptionally high-ranking.

Enhancing the understanding of the cycle of fate, the mere sound of it felt profound.

But it's not something Kane could grasp at present.

Putting these thoughts aside, the enticing aroma almost made one unable to resist.

After Kane completed his evaluation, everyone took their portions without hesitation, each cutting a piece of lamb to savor.

The lamb was firm and solid; each chew released a burst of flavor in the mouth, with the aroma of scallions adding allure.

Upon swallowing, a wave of heat surged to the heart, resembling the antelope's anger when alive.

Coated with the Peace Fruit jam, sending it into the mouth again.

Perfect.

The previous burst of heat mixed with the current, rushing to the heart, yet was suddenly flooded with a clear and tranquil cold.

Like a sip of ice-cold soda on a hot summer day.

A cool breeze during a sweltering autumn.

The sensation of hot and cold, along with the deliciousness of the lamb, was utterly captivating.

The final way to eat was to take each person's horned bread, cut it open, and dip the lamb in jam before taking a bite.

Perfection!

Such a splendid taste.

The food in the mouth was layered distinctly; first, the lamb and scallion flavor exploded, followed by the icy and fiery impact on the soul, and then the subtle sweet fragrance of the bread brought the final lingering scent.

This elevated all previous tastes to a higher level, and the slight greasiness of the lamb fat that was present before was completely cleared away by the bread.

Everyone was conquered by this delicious food, bringing them another sensory experience; the dish even touched their mental spirit.

After finishing the entire dish, they lay back on wooden chairs, unable to escape from the lingering experience.

After a while of relaxation, they finally returned to their senses from such an experience.

"Amazing, Kreya, this dish was simply delicious," Kane couldn't help but praise.

Longbei patted his belly: "Oh, I think you're almost catching up with my brother's culinary skill."

"It's not that exaggerated, it's just because this antelope and these seasonings are simply a perfect match, a providential pairing, while my culinary skill didn't play a significant role."

Upon hearing Kreya's modest words, Kane said: "No need to be so humble Kreya, my evaluation clearly stated that this dish has already reached the perfection it was supposed to have."

By this time, the sky outside was already late, Kane controlled the plates on the table to automatically start cleaning, once tidied up, everyone took the elevator to their respective floors to rest.

Deep night.

The sky above cast a faint moonlight on the windowsill.

The fragrance outside, faintly drifted into the wooden cabin, accompanying Kane and the others to gently fall asleep.

Outside, the long cries of unknown insects could be heard.

However, not everyone was enveloped in dreams.

"Lilu, do you want to sleep?"

"Lilu is very spirited, and doesn't want to sleep at all, how about you, Kreya?"

"I'm also very spirited, not feeling sleepy at all."

"Then let's continue, Lilu wants to play all night."

"Hmm"

Kreya's floor was softly lit.

Upon a large mattress, Kreya at this moment was playing the black and white pixel video game with Lilu.

This was a version improved by Kane, with many games, and could be played by two people.

While playing the game, Kreya couldn't help but recall their daytime.

Her and Lilu, eating Peace Fruits one after another endlessly.

Also her sneaking bites in the kitchen.

Peace Fruit: Calms the mood, refreshes mind.
