Chapter 179 Black Pearl Abalone(1/2)

...

Fortunately, Wu Hui had a way to distinguish it.

As one of the five origin stones, the heart of the earth often naturally condenses mysterious textures on the surface, which are very primitive divine patterns. Moreover, the earth origin stone formed by energy gathering is pure black and extremely hard, and even with holy tools, it cannot be split.

If there is a stone that can gather these characteristics and there is no magic fluctuation, there is a high probability that it is the Heart of the Earth.

And Jimmy Gundt happened to see such a stone.

It was a relatively familiar magician who specially used it for him to identify it. Unfortunately, he studied it for a long time and did not find out anything except that the stone was too hard. In the end, he could only attribute the special pattern to coincidence and returned the stone.

When Wu Hui heard his description, he knew that it must be the heart of the earth he was looking for.

Unfortunately, the heart of the earth was not in Jimmy Gante's hands, but in the Patrick Islands, the magician's holy land.

This trip to sea, in addition to sending the little Duke Daniel and Black back to the Duchy of Saint Violet to see the world, the main purpose is to go to the Patrick Islands to gain the heart of the earth.

As for coming to Amproport, it was purely for supply. After all, the journey was long, and it took several days to ride the Great Master Tower. The original supplies in the Mage Tower were not enough.

"Wu Hui, how about the blood of the war giant you promised to help me get? For this small bottle of blood, I even lend you the wizard tower, and you can't go back on your word."

Jimmy rubbed against Wu Hui at some point, and her voice was bound by magic elements into a thin bunch, which was transmitted into Wu Hui's ears without disturbing anyone.

Wu Hui turned his head and saw that he was pretending to be careless and looking at something else. Unfortunately, his acting skills were not very good. Because he had not seen the sun for a long time, his pale face was obviously nervous. He looked like a thief.

The war giant is one of the two envoys of Light. If he covets the blood on his body, wouldn’t he have to be a thief?

He couldn't help but laugh, and with his left hand, a small crystal bottle appeared in his palm, with a pool of scarlet liquid rippling slightly.

"What do you think is this?"

"This is..." Jimmy turned his head and pretended to look inadvertently, and his expression was immediately delighted, "The blood of the war giant!"

He reached out and wanted to get the little bottle.

Unexpectedly, before his hands were touched the bottle, Wu Hui raised his hand and put away the crystal bottle, and added with a smile: "I'll give it to you when I arrive at the Patrick Islands."

Jimmy's face was suddenly filled with resentment, and his expression looked like he was looking at the unfaithful man who had been abandoned all the time.

Wu Hui was unmoved.

If he gave Jimmy the blood now, he would definitely go into the laboratory immediately and not come out. Who will control the Grand Master Tower?

"Little bastard..."

Seeing Wu Hui's attitude, Jimmy knew that it was impossible to do anything, and her expression suddenly collapsed, as if she had lost hundreds of millions, which made Liliana and Daniel next to her unable to help but look at him.

While Wu Hui and Jimmy were secretly communicating, the greetings between Black and others next to him and Viscount Taylor were finally over.

"Vissue Taylor said he had prepared supplies for us and wanted to invite us to a salon dinner while we were transporting supplies." Black conveyed Vissue Taylor's meaning and looked at the others with a consultation, "I wonder what everyone thinks?"

"I hope you can give me a chance to entertain everyone." Viscount Taylor added aside, with a humble and enthusiastic expression on his plump face, expressing his intention to curry favor with a few people to the fullest.

Wu Hui shrugged: "I don't care."

As long as he doesn't delay his trip to the Patrick Islands, he has no requirements for where to eat.

The others had no objection. After a while, the few people discussed it and decided to accept Viscount Taylor's invitation and go to his manor to attend the dinner.

Viscount Taylor was overjoyed and immediately ordered the old housekeeper to go down and pass it on.

Soon, trucks of supplies were transported over. The trucks for transporting items were piled up, and they lined up from the edge of the dock to the streets of Ampro Town, winding into a long snake.

A group of strong male servants, shirtless, moved the supplies off the cart and transported them into the Grand Master Tower.

"Be careful, don't break the fresh water film outside the vine basket, and you won't even allow it to hit it. You can rely on these fresh water films to keep it fresh for a long time."

The old butler narrowed his eyes and glanced at the male servants, with a stern look, as if he could see everyone's little thoughts trying to cheat.

Um?

Hearing the four words "fresh water film", Wu Hui's heart moved and couldn't help but scan the translucent film covering the vine basket.

He just heard about this thing recently. It is said that it is a disposable magic item made by the magicians of the Patrick Islands. It can be used to keep vegetables and fruits fresh. This thing is a little expensive, but it can effectively solve the supply of vegetables and fruits during long-distance voyages.

I have to say that when necessary, the ability of those magicians is indeed not inferior to that of modern scientists.

"Master Earl, sirs, the carriage is ready, please follow me."

Just as Wu Hui was observing the fresh water film, Viscount Taylor had already called the carriage and invited the few people. Wu Hui did not delay and chose a carriage and took it on it.

It rained a few hours ago, and the road near the port was very muddy. The carriage was swaying on it, and occasionally it would cause stones, which was not very comfortable. Wu Hui was used to sitting in a stable and comfortable car in his previous life, and he was a little uneasy to ride in this narrow, cramped and unstable car.

Fortunately, Viscount Taylor's manor was very close to the pier. Not long after I sat in the carriage, the manor arrived.

"Sir, the manor is here. Please get off the bus."

The driver who was driving respectfully opened the car door for Wu Hui. Wu Hui walked down and looked around, and suddenly felt much better.

This manor is located on the beach, and on the right is the beach with waves rolling. The sunset is shining, and the sea is sparkling, and the scenery is very good.

Rose vines are wrapped around the exquisitely crafted iron fence of the manor. I don’t know what kind of roses are, but they are still blooming colorfully even though it is already midsummer. Accompanied by the sea breeze, the delicate rose petals sway slightly, emitting bursts of fragrance, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

"The dinner is about to begin, please follow me."

Viscount Taylor took everyone to the main building of the manor used for banquets. While walking, he still did not forget to introduce the carefully maintained scenery in the manor, such as the angel statues a century ago, the artificial fountain half a century ago, and the perfume roses that have been carefully cultivated for hundreds of years... Everything is available.

Wu Hui was not very interested in these things, so he just glanced a few times and then withdrew his gaze. Viscount Taylor's endless introduction was also regarded as the background sound by him, and he forgot it after hearing it.

The others were obviously not very interested in these things. Daniel and Black lived in Principal Castle since childhood, and their horizons were naturally not comparable to those of a little viscount. Although Liliana and Jimmy were not of high origin, they were extremely powerful and were widely respected wherever they went, and their knowledge was beyond comparison to ordinary people.

Perhaps because of the few people who were interested in it, Viscount Taylor gradually stopped talking in an informal way, and instead accelerated his pace, he led the few people to the main building of the manor.

In the main building, the banquet hall has been arranged.

Unlike the castle built for war, the buildings in this resort manor are exquisite and gorgeous, and under careful decoration, they exude a luxurious atmosphere everywhere.

A gentleman and a lady who came early were already sitting on the sofa, holding a red wine glass and talking in a low voice, with their fragrant clothes and smiling. Under the candlelight, the crystal goblet containing red wine reflects a brilliant brilliance, and the light and shadows of the ladies' complex and gorgeous skirts float, like a dream.

Everything in front of you, compared with the tragic and messy scenes on the dock just now, seems to exist in another world.

Wu Hui was in a trance for a moment and almost thought he was watching some European medieval movie.

However, he soon reacted.

This is not a movie, this is a serious aristocratic salon.

Speaking of which, he woke up for so long and killed many nobles, but this was the first time he participated in a serious noble salon. No wonder he felt like he was on the wrong set for a while.

Compared to his swaying spirit, the others obviously didn't think there was anything wrong with the scene in front of them. They walked in naturally and found a place to sit down.

Soon other guests noticed them, walked over with their glasses and greeted them.

Wu Hui's eyes swept through the entire banquet hall and found that there were quite a few people here, including nobles in gorgeous clothes, leaders of the chamber of commerce who looked good at it, and noble housekeepers who were dressed in low-key temperament but were noble. In the corner, there was a middle-aged man with a black leather mask, low-key, elegant but not bad temperament. It seemed that he was a nobleman who was unwilling to reveal his identity.

However, these people all seemed quite strange, and they did not seem to be the nobles in the Thorns, but perhaps Viscount Taylor's business partners.

"Everyone, today I invited a distinguished guest and let us welcome him together."

Viscount Taylor walked to the center of the banquet hall, raised his wine glass, enthusiastically introduced Black's identity to everyone, and delivered a welcome speech.

Viscount Taylor's speech announced the official start of the salon, and the atmosphere in the banquet hall suddenly became warm.

Many gentlemen raised the wine glass in their hands to Black and expressed their welcome. Each of them had fanaticism and reserve in their eyes. If it weren't for the temperament, they would have wanted to pounce on them immediately and get close to Earl Black. A real-powered Count with the Earl's fief is worthy of being a good match wherever they go.

At the same time, Daniel, Liliana, Wu Hui, Jimmy and others around Black were also welcomed by "warm" means. But it was obvious that it was a kind of polite enthusiasm, treating them as Black's followers or ordinary friends who came to see the world.

At the same time, on the edge of the banquet hall, a band specially invited played cheerful dance music. Plate after plate of exquisite delicacies were served on the dining tables on both sides for guests to use at will.

The atmosphere in the entire banquet hall became joyful and warm, and even the servants' steps seemed to have become a little lighter.

Wu Hui's posture was extremely relaxed, as if he was watching flowers bloom and fall. No wonder, although Wu Hui was just an ordinary person on Earth, the earth was more advanced than the Light Plane. Even if he had never eaten pork, he had seen pigs running.

Now Wu Hui is even more precious as the God of Light. Although the God of Light is not powerful enough at present, the god is a god after all, and he is high above and overlooks the world.

"Master Earl, this is the black pearl abalone I specially prepared for you."

At this time, Viscount Taylor suddenly came over, followed by a male servant holding a gold dining plate. In the dining plate, a basin-sized abalone was squirming slightly, emitting a fresh smell of sea.

"Black pearl abalone has a delicious taste, but it is only produced in a reef offshore. The gaps inside the reef are narrow and the undercurrents are fast. There are also many dangerous sea beasts living in. Only a level 3 or above, proficient in water and petite female martial artists can go into the sea to collect them. The annual output is only about a hundred, and most of them have to be supplied to the imperial capital. They are the most precious seafood in my territory."

The fat on Viscount Taylor's cheeks trembled slightly as he spoke, and his etiquette was still excellent, but his eyes were obviously proud.

"There are only ten black pearl abalone I picked this month. I picked the largest and most plump ones and kept them for two, and I specially raised them. Only such delicious food can be worthy of the Count."

As he said that, he clapped his hands, and the male servant behind him immediately walked up with a golden plate.

A middle-aged chef wearing a chef's hat picked up a silver knife, raised the knife and quickly dug out the abalone meat and made a piece of abalone fillet.

The chef casually picked up a piece with the tip of a knife, and the abalone fillet was as thin as a cicada's wings, shining in the candlelight.

"good!"

A burst of cheers suddenly came from around.

The nobles and merchants in the banquet hall gathered over at some point and cheered for the chef's superb knife skills with admiration.

It is not difficult to slice abalone fillets, but it is not easy to make the live abalone fillets so evenly and thinly.

During the cheering, a small magic oven was brought up.

The tall and strong chef picked up a piece of crystal abalone fillet with the tip of the knife, and gently pasted it on the magic oven without fireworks, and the edges of the abalone fillet suddenly curled up.

In less than three seconds, the abalone fillet was just right, and the chef picked it up again with the tip of a knife, sprinkled with spices that had been prepared, rolled it finely, and then cut it into small pieces suitable for the entrance and placed it in a golden plate.
