The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

The seed was precisely aimed at the armored shredder that was rapidly digging in the shallow sea.

The moment the seed came into contact with the seawater and the giant insect's hard shell, it instantly burst forth with terrifying vitality. Thick, dark blue vines, as thick as the roots of an ancient tree and covered with suckers and sharp barbs, burst out of the seed and grew, spread, and entangled at a terrifying speed visible to the naked eye.

They specifically seek out gaps in the shell and weak points in the joints to drill in and tighten.

No matter how frantically the crusher writhed, tore at its prey with its mouthparts, or even spit out strong acid, it could not break free from the vines that were specifically designed to strangle its prey in the water.

In the blink of an eye, the giant worm, which was over ten meters long and incredibly strong, was bound into a huge, constantly wriggling "vine dumpling".

With a slight thought, Sylph manipulated the vines, rolling the heavy "zongzi" all the way back to the sandy shore with great efficiency.

The remaining elusive, semi-transparent "Ghost Jellyfish King," resembling a giant phantom, naturally fell into Moran's hands.

She gently raised a finger towards the Ghost Jellyfish King.

In an instant, the surrounding seawater silently gathered, swirled, and shaped, forming a completely transparent spherical "water prison" that perfectly encapsulated the Ghost Jellyfish King along with a small patch of seawater around it, completely isolating it from the outside world.

The water prison walls appeared as thin as cicada wings, but in reality they were incredibly tough. The ghostly jellyfish king inside futilely crashed against the invisible walls, but could not budge them an inch.

With a slight thought, Moran caused the enormous "water prison bubble," over fifteen meters in diameter, to float smoothly away from the sea surface, drift leisurely back to the beach, and gently land.

Seeing that all the "ingredients" had been cleanly and efficiently caught and brought ashore, Zizi put her hands on her hips, puffed out her little chest, and let out a clear and majestic long roar at the still turbulent sea with many more eyes watching!

The whistling sound wasn't loud, but it was concentrated and didn't dissipate, spreading out with the pressure of a high-level magical creature.

The other sea beasts, which were originally eager to approach, were instantly extinguished as if doused with ice water the moment the roar swept over them.

They let out terrified whimpers or hisses, and without hesitation turned around, they rushed into the deep sea at an even faster speed than they had come, fleeing without looking back. In an instant, the sea returned to calm.

Squeaky withdrew its gaze with satisfaction, jumped back onto Moran's shoulder, and looked like it wanted praise, as if to say, "Look how awesome I am."

A comatose shadow eel, a dying hammerhead shark, an armored crusher bound like a dumpling, and a giant water prison bubble containing a ghost jellyfish king filled the beach.

"Great! Now we have all the materials!" Vasita rubbed her hands together, her smile practically overflowing.

“While we still need some time to deal with these big guys, Sylph, didn’t you want to go and explore the seabed?”

As Vasita directed her kitchen utensils to get to work, she said to Sylph:

"Let's go now! This area should be quiet by now. By the way, could you also check if there are any 'Fluorescent Sea Fennel,' 'Tidal Lemongrass,' or 'Abyssal Black Pepper Vine' around here?"

These are all top-quality deep-sea spices. Although you can buy processed ones in the card shop, they always feel like they're missing that fresh, vibrant quality from just being pulled from the sea.

If you see any suitable ones, pick some back; you can use them later for marinating meat, making sauces, and adding to soup!

“No problem! Leave it to me!” Sylph had the same idea. Her witch's robe instantly glowed with a soft green light, and the material seemed to become as soft and clingy as seaweed, automatically adjusting into a tight-fitting wetsuit style more suitable for underwater activities.

She waved to her friends, then with an elegant leap, silently glided into the dark blue sea. Afterwards, Vasita pointed to the specially made barbecue grill and said:
"Lilith! I'll put the pre-cut strips of sea eel tenderloin, live hammerhead shark meat, and snow-white strips of crushed worm meat here. I need you to use the Breath of the Red Dragon to help me slow-roast them. Only the Breath of the Red Dragon can achieve that perfect state where the outer skin is slightly crispy while the inside remains tender and chewy!"

Lilith readily accepted the task.

She hadn't tried grilling meat with dragon breath yet. As soon as she walked up to the grill and the meat came over, she started breathing dragon breath.

Moran possesses high levels of cooking and gourmet magic, and he even contributed his own {mobile kitchen} to assist Vasida.

Vasita picked up the largest silver-white kitchen knife and walked intently toward the main ingredient, the Shadow Sea Dragon Eel, preparing to personally handle the most crucial part.

Seeing that everyone was doing their jobs and even their own cooking utensils were "on duty," Moran felt at ease and walked to the dry, soft sandy beach.

The moss vines quickly spread over, weaving a soft and comfortable recliner beneath her.

Kaba brought out a small magic ice bucket from somewhere, containing several bottles of Melis Mermaid Tavern's specialty fruit wine.

Squeaky obediently jumped onto the armrest of the recliner, acting as a hand warmer.

Moran lay down comfortably, picked up a bottle of chilled fruit wine, uncorked it, and took a leisurely sip.

Looking up, you see a dazzling Milky Way and a bright moon; in your ears, you hear the sounds of waves crashing, the sizzling of grease on the grill, and the rhythmic cutting sounds of kitchen utensils processing ingredients.

She squinted, feeling the sea breeze on her face, savoring the sweetness of the fruit wine, and watching her friends busy and engrossed in their work.

“This is life…” Moran sighed softly, a satisfied smile playing on her lips.

Lilith stood by the barbecue grill, maintaining a steady posture and controlling the wisp of pure red dragon breath.

Dragon's Breath is millions of times stronger than a normal burst, requiring continuous and precise control from the caster to achieve the perfect effect required by Vasita.

She initially found it interesting, but as time went on, especially when she needed to take care of different parts of the meat of varying thicknesses on the grill and make fine adjustments to the heat, the job became less easy.

She had to concentrate fully, sensing the changes in temperature of each piece of meat, and adjusting the size and angle of the dragon's breath.

My cheeks were slightly sore from constantly breathing, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on my forehead.

She instinctively wanted to raise her hand to wipe her sweat, but was afraid of disrupting the steady cooking process, so she could only wait until one batch of meat was cooked and put into the food storage container, and then wipe it off when she had a spare moment before the next batch of meat arrived.

Just as she wiped away her sweat, Lilith's gaze fell upon Moran, who was lying comfortably on the beach, and she couldn't help but walk over.

After a while, the poor fire-tenders who were breathing dragon's breath in front of the barbecue grill became two people.

Although Moran didn't reincarnate as a dragon in the world of Seran, she didn't neglect the dragon language magic of various dragon species. She also knew the Flame Breath technique that a red dragon could master in its youth stage. (End of Chapter)
