The Legend of Fangren

Human-shaped self-propelled barbecue grill.

Fang Shi referred to himself in this way at this moment, because he was currently grilling 39 pieces of meat in his left hand.

In fact, he could have put even more things that could be smelted into the left-hand space—a single space could hold 64 furnaces at the same time, and all of these furnaces in the left-hand space could smelt items.

64x64, his left hand is now like a super furnace, instantly overshadowing the light of his right hand.

So this is the legendary "transformation" power, the ability to transform objects with the palm of your hand by loading various functional blocks.

In this way, he gained the ability to process items at any time without sleeping, not only cooking food, but also smelting minerals and other functional blocks.

There are many things we can experiment with, but for now, let's eat meat first.

By distributing each piece of meat into a single furnace and using a little more fuel, you can get 39 cooked venison steaks in just 10 seconds.

Although the steaks cooked in the furnace are not seasoned, the cooking time is well controlled, and they are delicious even on their own.

Although the Cangzhi deer is as tall as a person, its limbs are slender, and its body and thighs are extremely well-proportioned. The lean meat is not tough and is very tender. Only a little bit of fat has accumulated on its belly, which is also evenly distributed throughout the entire steak by the power of decomposition. This prevents the steak from becoming too dry after cooking due to the high proportion of lean meat. Instead, the strands of fat further enhance the tenderness of the lean meat to its peak.

miaomiaomiao~ It smells so good, it's really delicious.

Taking a bite of the thick steak fills your mouth with a satisfying fullness; your mouth is nothing but meat, leaving no room for air. Only after finally breaking it down and swallowing the whole mouthful of minced meat can you let out a long, satisfying sigh.

"Um?"

The senior and junior female students walking in front sniffed, as if they could smell a hint of meaty oil. They turned around in confusion, but could only see Fang Shi walking at the very back, holding the back of his head, looking at the sky and the ground with a very bored expression.

"..." There was a sense that something was amiss, especially for Luo He. Knowing Fang Zi as she did, she knew that this expression was the guilty look one would have if someone had cheated on her.

Although the two have shared with each other since childhood, when faced with the last piece of "snack" in their bowls after they have eaten their fill, they still reveal their childlike side and playfully fight.

Hmm~ But there's no evidence right now. It's possible that Fangzi is simply eating the spiritual fruits from the Heavenly Ring.

Over time, the team members have become accustomed to this.

So everyone continued on their journey in silence.

The journey of training is long and arduous, and the situation of being able to stay in the city as before is usually rare. Occasionally, one may stay overnight in a village, but more often one will spend the night in the mountains.

Over the years, training teams have passed through the area, establishing many temporary camps in the mountains and wilderness along the way. Some were simple wooden sheds, while others were caves in the mountains. The sect recorded these camps on maps so that later training teams could find nearby places to rest at night.

At this moment, Elder Qian Shaoyun held a rolled-up map in his hand and led the team toward the nearest campsite.

"Everyone, we'll be resting in a cave tonight. See that mountain over there? We have to climb it before tonight, or we'll get soaked in the rain."

"Yay!" The girls in the group cheered softly.

Resting in a cave provides a much greater sense of security than being in the wild, as it offers shelter from the wind and rain.

At this moment, Elder Yunyue said, "But don't be too happy yet. A good cave is often occupied by mystical beasts as their nest. Whether we get dinner and campsite tonight, or get chased out into the rain by mystical beasts, depends on your performance."

Upon hearing this, another wave of limp, dejected voices rippled through the ranks.

Damn it, I almost forgot that we have to hunt for our own dinner now.

Although this is a wild and mysterious realm, girls would definitely want something more refined if they had the means... Actually, boys are pretty much the same.

Thinking about this, the atmosphere in the whole team became depressed.

Just then, a faint, enticing aroma of meat wafted from the back of the line.

"Hmm!" Seizing the opportunity, Luo He turned around abruptly.

"What?"

Fang Shi was quick-witted and only let He Zi see his innocent and confused eyes.

This time, his acting skills have improved.

"Fang Zizi~" Luo He's suspicious gaze approached, and she swiftly moved closer to him, bringing her nose close to his mouth to sniff lightly, almost touching it.

"He Zizi~ What's wrong~" Fang Shi asked, feigning innocence.

He Bao, it's not that we don't want to share our food with you.

However, after the meat of an ordinary mystic beast is roasted, the mystic energy is completely extracted. If an ordinary cultivator eats the remaining meat, not only will it not replenish their mystic energy, but the amount of meat will also exceed the upper limit of their body's muscles and bones. It is not hard to imagine that the consequence will be fat accumulation, leading to obesity.

Aside from a slight regret regarding his figure, our He Bao is still very healthy. Since joining the clan, he has been eating well, and his thighs have become much fuller and rounder, unlike before when he was somewhat skin and bones.

Later, he could roast those pieces of Cangzhi Deer meat and give them to He Bao. Wouldn't that be much better than the "inferior meat" he has now?

Therefore, Fang Shi's current pretense is reasonable and well-founded.

Unfortunately, Luohe's sense of smell told her that Fangzi had definitely stolen something delicious.

The journey was tedious and long; it would be nice to have some snacks to satisfy my cravings.

Before, when her family was poor, Luo He would have obediently kept quiet. But now, she wanted to act coquettishly. This was something she only learned after meeting her other senior and junior sisters. Otherwise, she wouldn't have known that girls had this kind of special technique for attacking boys.

"Fangzi, can I have some? I'm craving something sweet."

Huh~ Fang Shi immediately got goosebumps.

Hezi, where did you learn that from? Although I know you have a sweet tooth now, considering your past brotherly image, you're still more suited to the tomboyish charm.

Having roughly understood Fang Shi's gaze, Luo He, somewhat ashamed, stopped her inappropriate coquettish behavior and instead resorted to a more direct approach.

"I want the prescription."

The seemingly blunt words, spoken like brothers, came from a girl's mouth, creating a charming contrast that struck Fang Shi hard in the right direction.

That's incredibly powerful!

So Fang Shi said with a grin, "No."

He licked the grease off his lips, destroying the only evidence.

"Aaaaaah!!!" Luo He clutched her head in frustration and ran back to find Senior Sister Qu.

Hoo hoo~

Fang Shi, however, continued to develop new functions for his left hand. He moved the furnace back to his backpack space, then switched to the workbench and began to synthesize many other functional blocks.

Take the furnace block, for example. It actually has two advanced variants: the smoke furnace and the blast furnace. In the game, these two furnaces only halve the smelting time of the corresponding items, but in reality, they might have many more powerful abilities.

Hezi wants to eat, right? Okay, let's thoroughly study his eating abilities first!
