The young dragon tries to conquer the world

　"Hmm," the young girl smacked her lips. "The taste is so-so, not as good as Melalu's."

　At that moment, the perceptive Lanmei sensed a threat from Baifeng. This upright creature was up to no good. Lanmei grabbed the little girl's arm and pulled her to her side, then wrapped her arms tightly around the little girl and made her sit on her lap. The little girl, whose eating had been disturbed by Lanmei, struggled a couple of times in her arms before finding a more comfortable position and then eating her roasted meat in peace. Baifeng looked at Lanmei, who was trying to assert her dominance over him, with a wry smile, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.

　"Hey, hunter, I'm very reluctant, but thank you for the cream soup. Okay, you can leave now."

　"Uh, Miss Lan, please don't be so heartless. It's very cold outside at night. Please let me stay here for the night. I won't bother you."

　Lanmei didn't necessarily want to kick Baifeng out, but she felt she should at least express her intention to forbid Baifeng from approaching the little girl. Hearing Baifeng's promise not to disturb them, Lanmei didn't insist that Baifeng leave. Baifeng disassembled the barbecue grill and put it into his backpack, which also contained some herbs, gathered materials, a dagger, and some whetstones, including common supplies provided by the hunter's gathering. While organizing the materials in his backpack, Baifeng observed the little girl and Lanmei's reactions out of the corner of his eye, but neither the little girl nor Lanmei were interested in them.

　Since nothing could attract the attention of the young girl and Lanmei, Bai Feng had no choice but to take out his greatsword, the Mad Strike Giant Fierce, and carefully maintain it. This time, the young girl actually glanced over, which excited Bai Feng. But just when Bai Feng thought that the curious young girl would run over to take a closer look, she turned her head away. She only glanced at it!

　While maintaining the Berserker Giant, Bai Feng had already used up two whetstones. Fortunately, whetstones were an unlimited item at the Hunter's Gathering Place. It seemed that continuing to maintain it would not yield any results, so Bai Feng had no choice but to stand the Berserker Giant against the wall. Just as Bai Feng was hesitating whether to perform a mixing of materials to attract the little girl's attention, she suddenly found a good thing in the hidden compartment of her prop bag.

　It was a bottle of Blazing Life Water, a drink that could instantly warm a cold body with just one sip. If a hunter suffered from hypothermia due to a lack of chili peppers during a hunt, drinking a full bottle of Blazing Life Water would restore them to peak health. In the mouths of some drunken hunters, this stuff was even more effective than secret medicine. Of course, it wasn't all good. Its obvious drawback was that it easily caused intoxication, leading to a loss of reason and the failure of quests. In short, it was an item that could be incredibly effective if used correctly, but could result in a cart ride if used incorrectly. Fortunately, Bai Feng had never had a problem drinking Blazing Life Water.

　Bai Feng poured himself a small cup of Blazing Life Water, took a bite of roasted meat, and then drank it down in one gulp, making an exaggerated sound of satisfaction. He muttered to himself, "When eating, it's best to have a sip of wine. Good meat with strong liquor, that's the hunter's life." As he spoke, Bai Feng poured himself another small cup and then quietly observed the reactions of the young girl and Lan Mei.

　As expected, the little girl stopped chewing. Lanmei was wondering what the upright creature was going to do next. Baifeng saw that he had piqued the curiosity of the little girl and Lanmei. Just as he was about to ask them if they wanted to have a drink, Baifeng suddenly saw the little girl take out a strange but familiar bottle. Upon closer inspection, it was none other than Daiginjo: Dragon Slayer!

　That was a top-grade wine made by countless craftsmen through years of research and brewing. But that wasn't the end of it. The young girl then took out Dragon Wine. Bai Feng had seen that kind of wine before. It was a strong liquor that would make even a dragon drunk. The scene was so surprising that Bai Feng didn't even have time to notice where the young girl had taken the wine from.

　Volume 1: 427 - Long time no see, Senior Bai Feng!

　Lanmei quite liked Baifeng's naive expression and proudly showed him their wine. This time, Lanmei generously stated that drinking was more fun with more people, so she poured Baifeng a cup of Daiginjo no Tatsu. Baifeng was naturally happy to see this situation, as he could not only drink but also get closer to the young girl and Lanmei. However, this time Baifeng had learned his lesson. Since Lanmei had a strong possessive desire for the young girl, he would not talk to the young girl but would instead take the initiative to chat with Lanmei.

　"You came to the Everfrost Tundra to hunt Bobo? It doesn't seem so. If you're asking which animal has the best meat, I'd highly recommend the meat of the Carnotaurus. The belly and loin meat of the Carnotaurus are excellent parts, with layers of meat and fat. Although the fat content is higher than that of other parts, the texture is smooth and delicious."

　Lanmei recalled the dish Granny Cat had mentioned, which required Ice Fish Dragon, Ice Fang Dragon, and Thunderjaw Dragon. However, since she said that the Bull Dragon was delicious, all that was needed was... Just then, the little girl suddenly stood up and nudged Lanmei. The crown-like sharp horn pricked Lanmei, making her feel itchy. Lanmei looked down in confusion and met the little girl's crimson-gold eyes. After swallowing the last of the roasted Bobo meat in a few bites, the little girl made a somewhat complicated gesture with her hand. Only then did Lanmei realize what the little girl wanted to say.

　"What's wrong? Are you not full?" Bai Feng was already used to the little girl's appetite. In fact, it was perfectly normal for a reincarnated being to be able to eat so much.

　"No, um, Xiaoguang is saying that our purpose in coming out is to eat the biggest, most amazing, and most delicious food."

　"Oh! It must be Grandma Cat's signature super seafood and land cuisine! Ah, I've had it once, and the taste is truly unforgettable!"

　The young girl and Lanmei nodded at the same time. The dishes made by Granny Cat were indeed delicious, and those that could be called her signature dishes were even more so.

　Bai Feng chatted with Lan Mei about Granny Cat, cooking, and the interesting stories between hunters, but the young girl soon got tired of listening. She was more interested in drinking, and soon the five bottles of Daiginjo Sakuten that the young girl had taken out were finished. Lan Mei then opened the Dragon Sakuten and poured Bai Feng a full glass. The color of the Dragon Sakuten was a bright red, just like the breath of a Rathalos. Bai Feng, who was already a little drunk, even felt that the Dragon Sakuten was boiling, but she still forced herself to drink it down in one gulp despite the dizziness. Then, Bai Feng passed out.

　When Bai Feng woke up, she was all alone in the camp. Fortunately, the embers of the fire in the center of the camp provided her with warmth, otherwise she would have been woken up by the cold. Bai Feng, who had just woken up, immediately felt dizzy and nauseous. The hangover made her too weak to get up from the ground. Her dry throat and cramping stomach made her wonder how much she had drunk last night. Oh, she drank some Dain-niang Dragon Slayer and some kind of dragon wine. Bai Feng thought to herself that it was worth it, and struggled to take out a nutrient solution G from her item bag and take a sip. Only then did she feel that she could gradually regain control of her body.

　As for the young girl and Lanmei, they had obviously left the camp long ago, probably to prepare for hunting the Thunderjaw Dragon, and of course, the Bullosaurus.

　Today is another sunny day. Since the Ice Fish Dragon next door is not here, the Bull Dragon is in a good mood. As a lifelong vegetarian dragon, the Bull Dragon likes to eat the roots and stems of plants buried underground. The Ice Fish Dragon often swims under the snow, so the Bull Dragon likes to go to the Ice Fish Dragon's territory to dig for food.

　The digging tool of the Magnusaurus was its own giant horn. After finding a suitable snowy area, the Magnusaurus would first use its hind legs to dig around the ground to determine the looseness of the soil. If there was neither cold, solid ice nor huge rocks buried deep underground, the Magnusaurus would lower its head and use its giant horn to dig open the ground, then pick out the juicy plant roots and stems inside, roll them up with its tongue, and put them into its mouth.

　Why wasn't that Ice Fish Dragon home? The Bull Dragon had been pondering this question. It felt restless if it didn't fight the Ice Fish Dragon every day. The Bull Dragon was just about to finish eating its food and go check on the Ice Fish Dragon's territory when it suddenly seemed to sense something. It raised its head abruptly, the plant roots it was chewing still dripping with juice. The Bull Dragon scanned its surroundings and, finding no threat, lowered its head again to continue munching on the plant roots.

　It's important to know that although the Bullosaurus is a herbivorous monster, when it gets aggressive, even ordinary carnivorous monsters can't do anything to it. But this time, the predator that sees the Bullosaurus as prey is not a predator of the level of the Thunderjaw Dragon or the Barioth Dragon.

　"boom!"

　"Ow~"

　The bullosaurus, which was chewing its food, was suddenly slammed into the ground by a tremendous force. The bullosaurus didn't even know what had happened; it only heard the sound of its bones cracking.

　A sound, followed by the sensation of skin being cut, and warm blood immediately sprayed onto the snowfield. The bull dragon let out a scream before its own blood blocked its throat, and a large amount of blood rushed into its lungs. The bull dragon struggled to see who it was, and the next second it felt as if its bones were being ripped out. Then the bull dragon flew up, and its gaze fell on the protruding rock at the last moment.

　The Wraith Lord's wing claws pierced the Bull Dragon's neck, dragging it out of the forest. Lan Mei looked at the wound left on the Bull Dragon by the Wraith Lord's blade scales and clicked her tongue. She and the Wraith Lord had both eaten the Serpent King Dragon, so why did the Wraith Lord grow these blade scales while she didn't? But then again, Lan Mei didn't really want these things to grow on her body. She wasn't good at melee combat at all, so it was fine for them to grow on the Wraith Lord.

　After defeating the Bullosaurus, the next target is the Thunderjaw Dragon, one of the essential ingredients for super-powerful dishes across land, sea, and air. All they need to do is return to the cave where they hunted the Barioth, and then follow the opposite direction to find the Thunderjaw Dragon. However, just as the young girl and Lan Mei stepped out of the cave, a fierce wind carrying snow blew in, pushing a cloud of snow towards them. They instinctively covered their faces with their hands, but in that instant, everything around them was bathed in pure white, making it impossible to distinguish east from west.

　However, the snow curtain quickly thinned out, and Lanmei could sense a familiar creature standing between the swirling wind and snow. "Thump~ thump~" Heavy footsteps began to sound all around. The thing did not leave, but instead approached the little girl and Lanmei. However, it did not fly over in an exaggerated manner. Even so, it did not seem to be a Fanged Beast. It had huge wings growing on its back. This familiar yet strange feeling made Lanmei feel a little strange.

　After the snowstorm subsided a bit, Lanmei could finally see clearly who it was. Just like a stark contrast to the white snowfield, its reddish-brown body strongly asserted its presence. Its body wasn't large, or rather, it was of average size; in fact, it was a bit smaller than Lanmei. However, what surprised Lanmei was its body. Its exceptionally well-developed muscles made every step it took feel like a falling rock, along with the squeaking sound of its scales rubbing against each other. In addition, its enormous wings made a teeth-grinding sound when they flapped.

　Lanmei remembered—wasn't that Kushao Daoora? But why had it become like this? Shouldn't it have scales as shiny and hard as steel? Now it looked so pathetic. "Roar!" The Rusty Steel Dragon roared fiercely towards the sky. As a relatively docile ancient dragon, the Steel Dragon wouldn't easily attack creatures it looked down upon. This roar from the Rusty Steel Dragon was a declaration of its presence to these two upright creatures. Most people would panic upon hearing such a roar, but the fact that these two upright creatures didn't make way angered the Rusty Steel Dragon.

　But the young girl wouldn't tolerate it. Even though it was a Rusty Steel Dragon, its expression clearly showed that the young girl immediately transformed back into the form of the Reincarnated One. Then, she spread her wings and claws, letting out a thunderous roar at the Rusty Steel Dragon. It seemed that if the Rusty Steel Dragon still didn't know what was good for it, the Reincarnated One would give it a good kick in the rear. At this point, Lan Mei felt that it would be a bit out of place if she didn't revert to her original form. So, with a flash of white light, the sky over the Everfrost Tundra immediately darkened, and dark clouds and lightning appeared in the sky.

　"Ow~"

　The Storm Dragon roared deafeningly at the Steel Dragon. The Storm Dragon, hovering in the sky, flew towards the Steel Dragon carrying water vapor. The Steel Dragon's sapphire-blue eyes kept flickering between the World Lord and the Storm Dragon, seemingly not reacting much to their appearance. However, in the end, the Steel Dragon gave up on staying in this place, stirred up a large blizzard, and flew away from the area.

　Lanlong slowly approached Huishizhu, blowing water vapor to wash away the bloodstains on Huishizhu's body. Lanlong knew that Ganglong was troubled, but it hadn't said anything, and Lanmei had no intention of disturbing it further. In fact, for Ganglong, it was inevitable that its skin would rust as it grew and developed, just like a newborn hatching. The molting process had to be completed by Ganglong itself, otherwise the new scales would not be as tough as before.

　No hunter has ever witnessed the entire process of a Rusty Steel Dragon shedding its skin from beginning to end. After all, it is a skinning process, and the Rusty Steel Dragon would definitely find a very safe place. To monsters, hunters are almost synonymous with danger. Thus, there is a saying that the Rusty Steel Dragon will attack towns in order to shed its skin. Moreover, the Rusty Steel Dragon usually chooses to shed its skin in cold regions.

　The entire shedding process is quite simple. As the Steel Dragon moves its body, the outer scales gradually fall off. When it arrives in a cold region, cracks will appear all over the reddish-brown Steel Dragon's body due to the cold air. At this point, the Steel Dragon only needs to exert a little more effort to break through the scales. As the backbone of the Steel Dragon's back begins to expand, broken scales fall from the sky like rain. Underneath the ancient reddish-brown skin, the Steel Dragon's brand-new silver body appears.

　Continuing onward, the little girl's white boots made a "shh~shh" sound on the snow. Crossing a narrow path, she and Lan Mei arrived at the foot of a rock wall. Looking up, the weather covering the mountaintop area seemed to have magically become exceptionally clear. Looking into the distance, they could clearly see the small...

　Bobo was leisurely grazing, and not only that, but you could also clearly see the small river at the foot of the mountain, which was very far away, and the mountain range in the distance that had accumulated snow for who knows how many years.

　This place not only connects to the snowfield, but also leads through the crevices between the rocks behind to a gathering point where rare insects can be found. Although few hunters usually go there, it's hard to imagine that despite being located in a snow-capped mountain, flowers and plants are in full bloom, and insects are flying around to collect nectar. Since the giant monsters cannot enter this place, it is actually a safe place, just like the camp. However, the young girl dislikes this place quite a bit; she doesn't like those flying creatures.

　The young girl simply smashed the rock with her tail and blocked the crevice. This indirectly caused many hunters who wanted to collect insects to complete their quests to have to search the entire Everfrost Tundra to find the insects required for the quests. Some unlucky ones even had to eat the cheapest roasted meat to survive because they couldn't complete the quests. But that had nothing to do with the young girl.

　Vines grow on the mountainside as if they were clinging to the cliff face. Small monsters use these vines to climb up and down, and some large monsters also try to use them, but they always end up destroying them. For hunters, using vines is a completely unprepared method. Generally, they prefer to use wedge beetles for fast movement. Their intuition told the young girl that the Thunderjaw Dragon would pass by here, and just as the young girl and Lan were about to jump down from here, they heard thumping footsteps behind them.

　Lanmei thought it was the Steel Dragon chasing after them, but when she turned around, she saw a dark blue creature standing in front of them. Coincidentally, the Thunderjaw Dragon, which was patrolling its territory, had just stepped out when it encountered the young girl and Lanmei. So, from the Thunderjaw Dragon's perspective, it was as if it had come across two delicious snacks while strolling along the road. Well, it was time to eat!

　For both the young girl and Lanmei, finding the Thunderjaw Dragon sooner would mean enjoying the super cuisine from land, sea, and air sooner, so both of them were eager to do so, and they were also quite clear about what they needed to do.

　The Thunderjaw Dragon wanted to swallow them whole, but the Reincarnation Lord grabbed its upper and lower jaws. Suddenly, the Thunderjaw Dragon felt it couldn't open its mouth. Stunned, the Thunderjaw Dragon tried its best to lift its eyes and saw a huge white-gold ancient dragon tightly gripping its mouth. In a panic, the Thunderjaw Dragon could only desperately try to break free from the Reincarnation Lord's wing claws, but even though it was a Thunderjaw Dragon, even though its hind legs were almost burning from the ground, it couldn't move an inch in front of the Reincarnation Lord.

　Even in this situation, the Rathalos couldn't roar, only letting out low whimpers. As the Rathalos entered a state of excitement, the "nasal flaps" of its sail-like carapace immediately opened and stood up. In this state, the Rathalos's sense of smell was enhanced, and the increased oxygen intake allowed it to exert greater strength. Blood flow also accelerated, and the pair of huge membranes on its back opened instantly. All of this was originally meant to help the Rathalos win the fight, but now it became the key to its escape.

　"Crack!"

　Before the Thunderjaw Dragon could make any further moves, its head immediately went limp. The Wanderer's pair of wing claws flattened the Thunderjaw Dragon's head. With that, all the ingredients for the ultimate sea, land, and air dish were collected. The next step was to return to the Moonlit Outpost and give these ingredients to Granny Cat to make the dish. Then, the next day, they could eat that Bull Dragon. Hmm, the young girl felt that her plan was perfect.

　Meanwhile, in order to track down the Rusty Steel Dragon that was about to molt, Mary boarded a supply ship bound for the Everfrost Tundra. The seemingly long journey passed in the blink of an eye. Although this mission required her to go to another region and took much longer than the previous missions, there was nothing that caused Mary any distress.

　Drifting on the sea in a boat, with the sea breeze blowing in her face and her whole body bathed in sunlight, whether she was swaying with the waves or watching the sunset slowly sinking into the other side of the horizon, these were all Mary's favorite things. Since being assigned to the New World by the Dragon Academy and becoming a hunter to face the ancient dragons, Mary had been busy honing her hunting skills. Now, she rarely had time to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way, so she didn't feel bored at all.

　As soon as Mary disembarked, she was stunned by the silvery white scenery before her. Mary was a Barbare, and the most she had ever seen since childhood was endless yellow sand. It wasn't until her feet sank deep into the snow and the icy snow water flowed through the gaps in her protective gear that Mary truly believed she had arrived at the place of her dreams. Although the old man accompanying her kept reminding her to drink hot beverages or her body would freeze, Mary didn't care what hot beverages were. After cheering, she plunged straight into the snowdrift like a hunting snow fox.

　If Mary hadn't been so soaked from playing, she would have played for quite a while. However, for safety's sake, they first needed to go to Seliana Outpost to get some training from the people there before starting their investigation of the Ruststeel Dragon. When they arrived at Seliana Outpost, the director of the Ecological Research Institute had already gone to discuss some issues related to the ecology of the Everfrost Tundra with the Third Fleet Commander, so Mary could only wander around aimlessly. For Mary, everything here was new and exciting, and

　To take care of her nominal apprentice Lilith, Mary had to bring her some souvenirs when she returned home, otherwise Lilith would definitely cry and make a fuss.

　"Senior Bai Feng?"

　"Hmm, who's calling me?"

　"It's me, Mary. You remember me, right? I'm a hunter trainee from the sixth class of the Kuka class at Ryukiin Academy. I'm a year younger than Senior Shirakawa. Back then, when I was practicing with the Charge Blade at the training ground, Senior taught me."

　"I remember now. I didn't expect you to have joined the Ancient Dragon Investigation Team of the New World. By the way, what brings you to the Everfrost Tundra? What happened?"

　"Don't worry, senior. It's nothing. I was just tracking a Steel Dragon that was about to molt. The director of the Ecological Research Institute needed detailed data on the Steel Dragon's molting, so I took on this task. Senior Bai Feng, I thought you would be going to the investigation team in the Forbidden Land."

　"Well, I haven't finished my work in the Everfrost Tundra yet, so I haven't signed up for the investigation mission in the Forbidden Lands. Besides, that investigation mission will last a long time. I've been in the Everfrost Tundra and the New World for so long, and I'm a little reluctant to leave. By the way, since you've come to Seliana, let me show you some of the local specialties and ice pillar vodka. Granny Cat's cooking is delicious."

　P.S.: Mini Knowledge Class is back!

　PS2: The name "chicken bouillon" doesn't come from being extracted from chickens. In fact, it's made through chemical or fermentation processes. It's called chicken bouillon because it mimics the savory taste of chicken. In South Korea, the Chosun Ilbo is the most influential news media outlet. KFC and Pizza Hut—one sells hamburgers and also sells pizzas, the other sells pizzas and also sells hamburgers—are actually owned by the same company!

　PS3: My mom and aunt had another fight, and a few days ago she took time off to go to a housekeeping agency to find her a caregiver. They initially agreed on one, but then she changed her mind and didn't want her anymore. Then, right after she fired the caregiver, she packed her things to go back to her hometown, and then called the caregiver back. Sigh, I hope she can get along well with the caregiver~

　Volume 1: Chapter 428 - The Little Girl's Favorite Dish

　If the cuisine of the New World is fiery and passionate, then the cuisine of the Everfrost Tundra is like the gentle haven that heroes long for. In terms of appearance, the cuisine of the Everfrost Tundra can't match the fiery passion of the New World. This is mainly because the hunters of the Everfrost Tundra not only need to fight against those ferocious monsters, but also need to withstand the harsh environment. Therefore, Granny Cat puts heat and temperature first when making the dishes, ensuring that the hunters can set off or return in the best possible condition.

　If these dishes were brought to the New World, hunters might find them too hot, but in the Everfrost Tundra, especially in the snowy weather outside the camp, a sip of warm cream soup from Granny Cat, followed by a piece of beef belly that melts in your mouth, will instantly energize even the coldest and most exhausted body. This feeling is even stronger for hunters who have just arrived in the Everfrost Tundra. Mary was one such hunter; she fell in love with the food of the Everfrost Tundra after her first bite.

　The meat here tastes different from that in the New World. Although it looks tender and delicious, there are unexpectedly some bone-in pieces with a wild, chewy texture. Biting into one produces a crisp, refreshing sound, like chewing on the skin of a wild boar. The feeling of the juices filling your mouth is a completely different kind of charm. At the same time, the flavor is refreshing and not greasy. The unadulterated deliciousness of the meat spreads throughout your mouth. If I were to say that this is the most perfect dish, Mary would feel that I am being presumptuous. But in short, this is what eating meat is all about!

　"So delicious~ Haha~ Iced vodka is also perfect. It's freezing outside, but I never thought I'd be drinking cold drinks indoors." Mary said with a sigh. Her naive statement made Bai Feng laugh. Mary broke off a piece of crispy toast and put it into the broth. After the bread had soaked up the broth, she picked it up and put it in her mouth. Only then did she notice that Bai Feng hadn't ordered any alcohol. "Hey, Senior Bai Feng, don't you drink? A sip of alcohol at a time like this would be perfect."

　Mary's words reminded Bai Feng of his experience at the abandoned camp last night. This was the first time Bai Feng had been so drunk that he was completely unconscious. If nothing unexpected happened, Bai Feng probably wouldn't want to drink for a week or two.

　"No, it's nothing, Mary. I'm just more used to eating it this way."

　Bai Feng wiped the grease around his mouth with his fingers, then sucked on his fingers as if afraid of wasting any, without even taking a sip.

　Forget about etiquette. After moistening her throat with water instead of wine, Bai Feng started talking about the Steel Dragon. She had seen the remains of a Steel Dragon after it shed its skin on the summit of the Everfrost Tundra. For hunters, that was a rare Elder Dragon material. However, the Steel Dragon was very irritable and aggressive during the molting period, so even though Mary was on an observation mission, she had to be careful.

　"Yes, I know, Senior Bai Feng. If it weren't for the observation commission, I wouldn't have accepted this mission. I've already witnessed the power of the Elder Dragons when we were fighting against the Teostra. I don't have the courage to face the Elder Dragons directly like you, Senior Bai Feng."

　"That's because the Lord of the Worlds has a very indifferent attitude towards hunters. If I were to encounter an ancient dragon that hates hunters, I wouldn't be able to stay calm either. Ancient dragons are not creatures that can reason with hunters."

　Mary chatted casually with Bai Feng while drinking, asking him about hunting. She mentioned that since the Teostra incident, she felt her body—or rather, her ability to see clearly and control her body more—had suddenly changed. Mary spoke anxiously, worried she couldn't describe the feeling properly, as she only felt more agile and could better understand and calmly handle her prey. However, she didn't know the reason for this.

　Mary guessed that she probably completed most of those commissions by herself, and although she found companions, she didn't need them to do any work.

　"If you want me to say it's because you've grown up, then you're still too naive. But you should cherish this feeling."

　Bai Feng revealed a satisfied smile. This was a necessary step for hunters, and having this experience proved that a hunter was qualified to become a master hunter. However, Bai Feng did not intend to tell Mary about this. Perhaps this would be a surprise for Mary in the near future. Mary was also very certain that Bai Feng understood something, but she certainly wouldn't obediently teach her.

　"Okay, I'll go find the answer myself!"

　Seeing Mary's haughty refusal to acknowledge her, Bai Feng felt that this was how a senior should be. However, she hesitated whether to tell Mary about the Reincarnation Lord. But then she thought that Mary was busy with the Rusty Dragon's request. Bai Feng felt that if she told Mary, Mary would probably turn around and help her investigate the Reincarnation Lord. So it was better not to say anything now. But Mary also noticed that Bai Feng was hesitant to speak. She didn't plan to ask any further questions. After all, Bai Feng had just bullied her.

　Just as both sides were lost in their own thoughts, three Melaloo rushed in, meowing.

　"Meow, meow meow meow, meow!" Dear Grandma, dear Grandma, our eldest has brought back the ingredients for the super dish! This time, Grandma is going to teach us how to make the super dish that combines land, sea and air!

　"Meow, meow, meow meow, meow meow meow!" I saw the boss too. Besides that crackling monster, there was a big fish and a monster with strange teeth. Oh, and a furry monster too.

　"Meow~" It seems that Xiao Guang really wants to eat this dish. You said it's furry, so it must be a bull dragon. Look carefully, Grandma is going to make you braised beef and stewed beef steak. Children, come outside and prepare the ingredients.

　As soon as Granny Cat finished speaking, Bai Feng and Mary saw the Palicoes who were preparing seasonings and tending the fire hopping and skipping as they followed Melalu out of the dining area. In the open space of the camp, Bai Feng and Mary saw a young girl dragging a Thunderjaw Dragon, an Ice Fish Dragon, an Ice Fang Dragon, and even a Bull Dragon. Their first reaction was, whose child is this, so brave!

　Okay, this little girl is a reincarnation master, so it's perfectly normal for her to do this.

　The young girl dragged the four dragons to the front of Granny Cat's kitchen and sat obediently on the table inside, waiting for the super dish to be ready. Granny Cat kindly served the young girl some desserts and then directed the Palicoes to deal with the monsters in front of them. Suddenly, four monsters appeared in the center of the camp. Moreover, when the hunters heard that Granny Cat was going to make the super dish of land, sea and air once again, the Seliana camp immediately became as lively as a festival. Even the snowflakes falling from the sky melted into water in the air before they even reached the ground.

　"Meow!" Keep it up!

　"Meow!" Charge forward!

　The most lively Palico waved its chef's hat, directing the Palicoes and Melalu to divide the four monsters. The lively atmosphere made the hunters want to join in, but there were only about ten Palicoes and Melalu in total. To maintain order, the hunters couldn't join in and could only cheer for the Palicoes and Melalu from the sidelines. After looking away, Mary stretched out a big yawn. Although she usually lived a hunting life, no matter how simple the hunt was, she could still feel a sense of relief as long as she was in the village.

　Mary and Bai Feng were past the age of watching the excitement, and they didn't need the materials from these four monsters, so they prepared to leave after finishing their meal. Just as they were about to leave the restaurant, a man who looked exactly like the Golden Lion landed in the center of the Moonlit Camp.

　"Kuhahaha, long time no see, are you having a banquet?"

　"Commander!?"

　"Hahaha, how have you guys been lately? I've been tracking down Nergigante. Here, take this."

　These are some gifts.

　As the Grand Master spoke, he took off his backpack. Although the bag was full of all kinds of ores, it didn't seem heavy on his back. The Grand Master gave the impression that he was a human, but his physical strength was almost comparable to that of the Golden Lion. Bai Feng knew this best. The scene of the Grand Master lifting a stone to block the breath of the Netherworld Dragon was still vivid in Bai Feng's mind.

　"These ores are really good. By the way, this isn't a banquet for the Grand Commander. In fact..."

　Bai Feng quickly recounted the story of the young girl, who was also known as the Reincarnation Master. Although the Grand Master sometimes seemed unreliable, he was still reliable. Moreover, when the Grand Master was needed to handle certain matters, he would do things in accordance with his position and never disappoint.

　"Oh, this is troublesome. If that's all there is to it, then this little girl, her name is Hikari, right? She's a good child. And as the Lord of the World, the power she possesses can't be dealt with by simply gathering the existing hunters, at least."

　"We would need at least more hunters than we did with Safi'jiiva, but there's another point: the New World Elder Dragon Survey Team used a rapid defeat tactic to drive Safi'jiiva away, forcing it to go deeper to protect its eggs by quickly depleting the leyline energy of the Valley of the Dead. But the Wraith Lord doesn't have that option. She's not Safi'jiiva, and the scattered scales she emits are also incredibly destructive. At least, if we wanted to trap the Wraith Lord, we simply couldn't."

　Seemingly noticing that Bai Feng had fallen into a daze of thought, the Grand Master slapped Bai Feng on the shoulder. The force of the impact almost made the unsuspecting Bai Feng fall to the ground. "Hahaha, Bai Feng, you're too nervous. No matter what, it's just an ancient dragon. It's not some species that hunters can't defeat. As long as it's a dragon, hunters can hunt it down. Besides, isn't she very quiet right now? According to you, all she does is eat. So what's there to worry about?"

　"It seems that's indeed the case."

　Unlike the head chef of Lynx-tei, who specializes in bold, thick-cut dishes and grilling, its chef, Granny Cat, is more skilled in gentle and delicate stewing and baking, mostly using herbs, cheese, and cream as seasonings. The first dish of the Land, Sea and Air Super Cuisine is a multi-layered sandwich, made with the fattest meat from the Rathalosaurus paired with soft bread. Of course, it also contains a million cabbages and frosted tomatoes, and the bread is a noble food made with honey and milk.

　Perhaps because it had been a long time since she had made it, Granny Cat had deliberately stacked several layers of sandwiches together this time. Even Melalu, who was in charge of serving the food, walked slowly and was afraid because of the trembling sandwiches. Fortunately, she managed to deliver them to the little girl's table without any major incidents. However, this posed a challenge for the little girl. She tried her best to open her mouth wide but could only eat half of the sandwich. If the little girl started biting from the side, the fillings inside would easily be squeezed out. Just as Lanmei was wondering what the little girl would do, the little girl took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to her and instantly transformed her head back into the form of the World Lord, and then swallowed the sandwich in one gulp.

　Because three different monster heads were used at the same time, each layer of the sandwich has a different flavor. The various flavors of meat are mixed together to bring out the rich juices, which are combined with the refreshing taste of frosted tomatoes and the smoothness of New World special cheese, like a delicious quartet, making people exclaim, "Delicious!"

　Next came the sashimi made from the Ice Fish Dragon. Perhaps it was because the Ice Fish Dragon that the young girl caught was in its prime, or perhaps it was because the cat grandmother's knife skills were effective, but in any case, the Ice Fish Dragon sashimi was very delicious. The young girl felt that the Ice Fish Dragon meat had a texture that was like a combination of the belly meat of a large sashimi fish and the pork belly of a Sand Dragon. Moreover, the more she chewed, the more she could feel the deliciousness of the Ice Fish Dragon meat. The young girl even regretted only catching one Ice Fish Dragon. Just as she swallowed the Ice Fish Dragon meat, a whole grilled Thunderjaw Dragon leg was served next.

　The perfectly fried, crispy and fragrant outer layer is like a layered pancake. The just-right seasoning sprinkled on the surface brings out the unique flavor of the Everfrost Tundra. With one bite, the thick and juicy Thunderjaw Dragon meat under the skin is revealed. The rich flavor spreads little by little from the elastic thigh meat. Moreover, Granny Cat has a good control over the heat. The meat inside the thigh is so tender that it seems to melt in your mouth. You can't find such tender meat in the New World. This is all thanks to Granny Cat's unique meat-kneading technique.

　Grandma Cat took the seasonings that the Palico had carefully ground, sniffed them carefully, and then poured them into the salt, stirring them thoroughly. At this time, the charcoal fire under the copper pot was already burning hot. Grandma Cat and the Palico placed the entire tail of the Barioth Dragon into the pot, and then covered it with a layer of salt. The salt-baked Barioth Dragon tail was ready. The little girl didn't care about the steaming copper pot. She lifted the lid and grabbed the thorns on the Barioth Dragon's tail to take it out. At this time, the carapace on the tail was already very soft and would fall off with a gentle tap, revealing the delicious red meat inside.

　With that, the appetizers for this extraordinary land, sea, and air cuisine have all been served, which sets the stage for the grand finale!

　It was already evening when the main course was served, but the fact that the little girl had brought four monsters shocked the entire Seliana base, and Melalu was giving away ingredients on the side, so even though it was evening, the hunters still gathered in twos and threes in the restaurant, which had become a lively banquet hall. Palicoes were busy behind the counter, serving dishes to the hunters, while White Wind and Mary sat on the counter behind the counter, and waves of hunters came over to talk to them.

　The cat and Melalus worked together to carry in a huge copper pot. Even though the lid wasn't open yet, Baifeng and Mary could smell the mesmerizing aroma emanating from it. It was the smell of dragon loin, dragon breast, and dragon leg meat that had been simmering for nearly eight hours. The aroma of various spices, high-grade mutton, pot-cured raw meat, dragon head meat, and lava meat were all mixed together. Especially after the addition of some sea eel and queen shrimp, it emitted a wonderful aroma that made the taste buds on the tongue feel like meat just by smelling it, and even made people involuntarily salivate.

　Not to mention opening it, what's even more shocking is that as soon as Granny Cat opened the lid, in a burst of rising steam, the hunters actually saw the aurora unique to the Everfrost Tundra above the super dish. Almost all the hunters present who smelled the aroma showed expressions of longing, not to mention the little girl. If it weren't for the fact that human form was more suitable for tasting these delicacies, the little girl would have already transformed back into the World Lord, flicked these hunters away with her tail, and then feasted on them.

　The little girl took out her special soup spoon, scooped up a full spoonful of the rich soup, and drank it down in one gulp. The unique but rich aroma made her squint her eyes. What pleased her even more was that even her breath was filled with the aroma. The little girl kept slapping her tail to show her satisfaction. Although it had been simmered for a long time, the meat in the super dish was not so soft that it melted in her mouth. Instead, it still had a certain chewiness and elasticity. Moreover, it was softer, more tender, and more fragrant than meat prepared by other cooking methods!
