The Spirit of Gourmet

Chapter 567 Methods and Disagreements

"An ideal country?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Lang froze on the spot.

Before they could figure out a way to get to the Land of Ideals, they witnessed the only person they knew on the Island of Wishes enter the Land of Ideals.

What's even more perplexing than the event itself is that, to this day, they still haven't figured out how Qu Dong actually entered the ideal world.

As if without warning, light emanated from the other party, and then they vanished into thin air.

“Now you know why I said it’s a lucky thing to be able to enter the ideal country, right?” Batu grinned, with a hint of self-deprecation. “In the past ten years, I’ve seen many people enter there.”

"But I still don't understand how they did it."

"It was as if some god-like being had chosen them and sent them to their ideal land, but this god did not favor me."

"Gods..." Qin Lang looked thoughtful.

He didn't know whether there were gods in this world.

But the legendary beings do indeed possess power almost equivalent to that of gods.

Undoubtedly, both the ideal land and the island of wishes are related to the mysterious Lake Geyser. So, is there a possibility...?

Is it also the same thing that selects people to enter the ideal land?
Thinking of this, Qin Lang turned his head and looked around.

Perhaps at this very moment, there is a pair of unseen eyes watching them, occasionally selecting targets from among them who meet certain requirements.

So... what exactly is this requirement?

“The most important rule of the Island of Wishes is to make a wish,” Batu said softly. “I have already taught you this.”

"If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me anytime."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the crowd not far away, and then went straight into one of the treehouses behind the crowd.

"Wasn't he just about to tell us something else?" Zhao Qian blinked.

"Perhaps it was Qu Dong's entry into the ideal country that made him suddenly lose the mood for this?" Qin Lang casually guessed.

"If it were me, after staying here for ten years and seeing so many people enter the ideal world while I can't enter it myself, I would probably feel frustrated too."

"Is entering the Ideal Land really a good thing?" Cao Dongdong suddenly asked. "No one who goes there has ever returned. Besides the name 'Ideal Land,' Batu knows nothing else. What if..."

"Is that an even worse place?"

“No matter what kind of place it is, we have to go.” Qiao Yu’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was filled with determination. “My dad and the rest of the security team are there, so I have to go there too!”

“Miss Qiao Yu is right.” Qin Lang nodded. “We came here to find Zuo Ge and Manager Qu Dong.”

"Now they have both entered the ideal world."

"So whether the ideal country is better or worse than the island of desire, we have no choice but to enter it."

"You guys go ahead, we won't go."

A lazy voice broke the atmosphere between Qin Lang and the others.

The group turned to look and saw Lomi standing to the side with Liu Chuang, creating a distance between them as if drawing a line. "I think this place is pretty good." Lomi clasped her hands together in front of her chest in a prayer gesture, then grabbed a delicate little cake from the air and popped it into her mouth.

"We have no worries about food and drink, and the despicable Spirit Chef Association hasn't come to arrest us yet."

“More importantly…” Lomi looked at Qin Lang and the others, and snorted, “We don’t have any friends we need to look for.”

"Hey! You!" Zhao Qian said with displeasure, "I kindly carried you all the way, and you still say things like that!"

“Who asked you to carry it?” Lomi wrinkled her nose. “That strange fog was clearly aimed at you. We were just caught in the crossfire.”

"You're talking nonsense!" Cao Dongdong said indignantly. "If you hadn't created the fog in that sea area, we wouldn't have been able to enter it at all!"

"Alright." Qin Lang said in a low voice, signaling Zhao Qian and Cao Dongdong not to continue arguing with them. He glanced at Luo Mi and Liu Chuang, who was standing silently beside her.

"We enter the ideal land not only to find our lost friends, but also for ourselves."

"You should have heard what Batu just said."

“He felt that Zuo Ge had the opportunity to enter the ideal country as soon as he arrived here, but he stayed here for several days before entering it.” Qin Lang paused here, “But just now we saw Manager Qu Dong enter it.”

"It is a kind of disappearance that cannot be stopped by one's own will."

"This means that Zog likely knows something about this place."

"After all, after we parted ways, he was investigating the Qili Bay Monster, and before he disappeared, he even personally visited a person who had returned after being missing for decades."

"Therefore, if we find Zuo Ge, we will have a great chance of leaving."

At this point, he looked at Lomi and Liu Chuang, "Although I don't like you, your past mistakes should be judged by the public security management team, not trapped in this seemingly beautiful cage for the rest of your lives."

"Are you sure you don't want to come with us to find a way out?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Chuang opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but Luo Mi pulled him back forcefully.

“No need!” Lomi snorted. “You glamorous types would never understand our situation and our past. So what if we’re in a cage? We’re content with just a little bit of happiness.”

"But the outside world won't give us a single thing."

"Let's go!" She pulled Liu Chuang and turned to leave.

"Stubborn brats!" Zhao Qian gritted her teeth. "Since they insist on doing this, then let's just ignore them!"

She raised her voice a few decibels, seemingly intending for the two people walking away to hear, "Let them stay on this deserted island. When we go back, the world will be two less annoying guys, which is actually a good thing!"

However, the two continued walking away without stopping because of Zhao Qian's words.

“Since they’ve made this choice, let’s leave it at that.” Qin Lang sighed, then looked at Qiao Yu beside him. “Although capturing members of the hunting team is important, I don’t think Miss Qiao Yu is in the mood for it right now.”

"Mm." Qiao Yu nodded.

If they were outside, she would never have let these two members of the hunting team go, but finding her companions from the security management team and returning to the outside world is the most important thing right now.

In comparison, the capture of Luo Mi and Liu Chuang can be put aside for now.

"Let's figure out a way to enter the ideal country first."
