A comic book journey to see the Eye of Antiquity

"If I go to the next level, I'll get 100 million points of all attributes, right?"

Yang Lei predicts that when the food cell evolves to level 12 again, he will get 100 million points of all attributes.

just.

"It's a bit difficult."

Yang Lei frowned. Just as he had predicted, when the food cells evolved to the eleventh level, the required ingredients also increased by countless levels, from the previous level one thousand to five thousand to level five thousand to level ten thousand.

"Fortunately, I was mentally prepared."

Yang Lei snorted. He not only predicted how many attribute points the food cell evolution would yield, but also how many levels of ingredients would be needed next.

That's why he accumulates a large amount of level 5,000 ingredients but doesn't rush to eat them, so that they can still provide nutrition to the food cells after reaching this level.

Next, Yang Lei wasn't in a hurry to take Xiao Ma to find the Snake King, nor was he in a hurry to catch the dessert from the Earth Feast. Instead, he and Xiao Ma set up camp on the spot and were finally ready to feast.

He was so frustrated, he really was. The pain of having so many high-quality ingredients but not being able to eat them is something many foodies can understand.

Xiao Ma was the same; he had asked Yang Lei for it several times along the way, but unfortunately, he couldn't move Yang Lei, not even with his pitiful gaze.

Finally, Yang Lei took out the large amount of ingredients he had previously collected, intending to share them with it.

But Yang Lei was really wicked. He first took out the horse king's leg and laid it across a mountain range. Several shadow clones then took care of it. Little Ma glanced at that side and felt disgusted no matter what he thought.

"How could you be so mean? Couldn't you have waited until I finished eating before taking it out?"

Little Horse didn't mean to stop Yang Lei from eating the King of Horses' Leg, because Yang Lei would eat the flesh of other kings anyway. It was just complaining, why did they have to take out its mother's flesh while it was eating? Was it doing this on purpose?

Yang Lei chuckled dryly, thinking to himself that he was deliberately making it difficult for you to eat, so that he could eat more.

In the eyes of a foodie, every extra bite is precious, and they won't give up an inch...

Unfortunately, his plan failed. Instead, the little horse was enraged and turned his anger into appetite, eating even more.

Yang Lei was on the verge of tears, but thankfully there was enough food. The two large worms they caught in the Death Maze—the sea snail noodles and the giant worm from the 'airplane cup'—were enough to feed them for a day.

The next day, they took out the fake PAIRs again and had a big meal, but the quantity was more than a million less.

On the third day, not only was the horse king's leg cooked, but the meat of the ape king, the deer king, and the whale king were also cooked. However, Yang Lei was not in a hurry to eat them.

Don't forget about the seven beasts and the high-level ferocious beasts on the Deer King's body.

And so, Yang Lei and Xiao Ma feasted for four days in a row. When they got up and set off again, not only had Xiao Ma's aura improved rapidly, initially breaking through level 1000, but it was still rising. Most importantly, Yang Lei's personal space was about to be empty again...

"So, Little Ma, it's not bad to follow your uncle, is it?"

At this moment, Yang Lei was seen casually putting his arm around Xiao Ma's neck, while his other hand was holding a large bottle of fine wine and continuously chugging it down his throat, his words already starting to slur.

Good food is never complete without good wine. Because of the connection to the inner world, Yang Lei had a large batch of wine brewed with various high-end ingredients while preparing the fish dishes. The wine was not only of extremely high grade, but also had an exceptionally high alcohol content and purity. He was so drunk after drinking a lot of it that he was quite tipsy.

Little Horse was helpless. Yang Lei had deliberately gotten drunk, and it couldn't persuade him. At this moment, it could only lower its head and pretend to be an ordinary horse, as if it couldn't understand what Yang Lei was saying at all, and simply didn't respond.

After finishing the feast, when Yang Lei set off again, his goal was clear: to go straight to the territory of the (good Zhao) Snake King, namely the 'Gourmet Garden', located in the very center of the Fourth Continent, the birthplace of dessert EARTH.

Of course, the Queen Snake is also one of Yang Lei's targets.

He had already eaten all the flesh of the other eight kings, and he believed that the snake king had also sensed their presence. In order to further evolve his gourmet cells, Yang Lei would naturally not let go of the flesh of the remaining four kings.

Chapter 653

"After these few days of feasting, the food cells have grown to the halfway point. If we continue, we will definitely be able to evolve the food cells to level twelfth when we capture all the food on Earth."

"Don't forget, besides the Wolf King, there's also a group of blue, smelly lizards on the Second Continent."

(PS: When the Golden Gourmet Cell evolves to level eleven, it can increase the effects of attributes such as strength, agility, and constitution by a hundred times. The attribute gains from cultivation will also increase by a hundred times. The cells, flesh, and bones of the whole body will begin to evolve back to their original state, dropping from the Rainbow Diamond level back to Pure Gold.)

0555 Yang Lei, the drunken madman

First, I experienced a period of suppression, and then all my appetites were completely unleashed. I ate all the high-quality ingredients on my body to satisfy my appetite. This feeling was really amazing.

To use an inappropriate analogy, it's like during sex, you don't rush to climax, but instead try your best to endure it. When the time comes to climax, you'll experience a higher level of enjoyment than a normal climax.

Yang Lei was in the same boat. He had been suppressing his appetite until he arrived at the Fourth Continent and his gourmet cells evolved to the eleventh level. Only then did he finally begin to enjoy the high-grade ingredients he had already captured.

After a satisfying feast, Yang Lei felt completely fulfilled, and couldn't help but drink a lot of fine wine, eventually getting himself drunk.

When drunk, Yang Lei is terrifying. He quickly turned the Fourth Continent upside down. Not only would he bite into any plant-based food he encountered as a snack, but he would also chase after animals and bite and swallow them alive.

Xiao Ma was truly helpless. Fortunately, even when Yang Lei was drunk, he still recognized who it was, otherwise, there really wouldn't have been any way to play with him.

"Is this some kind of drunken tantrum? This is truly awful behavior when drunk."

Xiao Ma couldn't help but complain, never expecting Yang Lei to be so disruptive when he was drunk.

"Little Ma, where are you going?"

Just then, Yang Lei, who was in front, suddenly shouted, pointing at a sika deer that was fleeing rapidly into the distance: "Come back! We have to go that way."

"Is this a case of calling a deer a horse? 407?"

Xiao Ma stared at Yang Lei with a black line on his face. Seeing that he was about to take a step forward to chase after him, he quickly reminded him from behind, "You bastard, I'm right behind you. Who are you going to chase? Also, wake up right now."

Yang Lei stopped in his tracks, turned around and saw that Xiao Ma was indeed not far behind him. He then grinned foolishly, shook his head, and muttered to himself, "I can't take it anymore, I've really drunk too much."

"Damn it, how can wine made with fake PAIR and a lot of other high-grade plant ingredients have such a strong aftereffect? ​​It must be because the fermentation time was too long, right? In the Inner World, it fermented for hundreds of thousands of years in the blink of an eye. Even ordinary wine would undergo a qualitative change."

"But it tastes so refreshing!"

It seems that Yang Lei has some self-awareness and knows that he is truly drunk in his current state.

Although Yang Lei's physical condition was already very strong, the wine he drank before was of a very high grade. It was made from fake PAIR wine with a grade of over 5,000. That kind of wine could greatly enhance the growth of food cells even if he ate it. After a very long fermentation period, the effect was even better.

In addition, Yang Lei's drinking capacity is considerable; it's likely that even 100,000 people couldn't drink as much as he does. It would be a miracle if he didn't get drunk.

Because of the drunkard Yang Lei, who was known as "705u.com - Reading Club First Release", their progress was extremely slow.

I don't know if anyone has had this experience, but I'd like to give you all a piece of advice: never walk with a drunk friend, or it will drive you crazy.

At this point, Xiao Ma was on the verge of collapse. Yang Lei was running around aimlessly, completely deviating from the previously agreed-upon direction.

Not only that, he also always does whatever he wants, and no one can guess what a drunkard is thinking.

Left with no other choice, Xiao Ma finally gave in and, for the first time, lowered his head and carried Yang Lei on his back.

Previously, Yang Lei had approached Xiao Ma countless times to discuss wanting to ride on its back.

But the little horse disagreed. It was destined to become a great king, and as the heir to the throne, how could it allow anyone else to ride on its back?

But today was different. Xiao Ma tried to reassure himself that Yang Lei was a drunkard, and no one would argue with a drunkard, so it didn't count.

What it certainly didn't see was that Yang Lei suddenly revealed a smug expression on his face, with a wide grin and drooping eyes, a smile that looked absolutely infuriating.

There are different levels of drunkenness.

The most extreme case is, of course, collapsing from drunkenness and sleeping soundly until sober. Some people don't even know how to use the toilet and just relieve themselves where they fall asleep.

Below the highest level, there's a level where the brain goes completely blank, commonly known as blacking out. The person has no idea what happened during that time or what they did. This is when a drunkard is most dangerous because they are no longer the person they used to be and have no rationality whatsoever. If you encounter one, you must get away from them immediately.

Another type is someone who is drunk and dizzy, but still conscious, just not quick-witted.

Yang Lei is currently at this point. He knows who he is and what his purpose is in coming to the Fourth Continent.

At this moment, however, he was no longer as normal as when he was sober; instead, he became abnormal. He wasn't exactly scheming against the pony, but he was also feeling smug about being able to ride it.

Given his strength and status, it's astonishing that he could ride a newborn pony and was actually so proud of it. You can imagine how stupid that was. But he couldn't help but laugh out loud. He even raised his hand and grabbed a small willow branch from not far away, then flicked it back and hit the pony's butt.

"Snapped."

“Drive.”

"That's going too far."

The little horse was furious. It thought to itself, "Carrying you on my back is already going too far and making an exception, okay? And you actually think I'm just a regular horse? If you keep this up, I'm not playing with you anymore."

Yang Lei, however, did nothing to stop it. He pinched the horse's belly with his feet and whipped its buttocks repeatedly. Fortunately, Yang Lei knew his limits, otherwise the horse would have been seriously injured.

As for now, there's no need to worry; Yang Lei's voice was just loud but soft.

. . . . . .

Yang Lei's commotion lasted until the afternoon before he finally gradually came to his senses.

When you're not sleeping, the process of sobering up is gradual, unlike when you sleep, where you're sober up immediately after waking up.

As Yang Lei gradually calmed down, Xiao Ma already guessed what had happened. He knew without a doubt that Yang Lei had sobered up and guessed that he was probably regretting what he had done before.

Little Horse didn't say a word, at least it thought Yang Lei would be embarrassed, so it pretended not to know and continued to carry Yang Lei towards the center of the fourth continent.

What it didn't know was that Yang Lei didn't feel embarrassed at all, not even a little bit. Instead, he lay on the horse with his eyes closed, slowly savoring the feelings of the morning.

Chapter 654

He rarely got drunk, and he found the feeling quite interesting and novel.

Think about it, before he transmigrated, he could barely afford to eat, let alone have money to drink alcohol. That would be too extravagant.

The first world after transmigrating happens to be the Naruto world, a ninja world, and among the three prohibitions of ninjas is alcohol.

Moreover, Yang Lei was not yet eighteen years old at that time, and was not allowed to drink alcohol, so no one dared to sell it to him.

He never had the chance to come into contact with alcohol again, mainly because he didn't want to.

It wasn't until he entered the world of gastronomy, where he learned that in addition to delicious ingredients, alcohol is also a part of food, even an indispensable one, that Yang Lei finally came into contact with this aspect.

Moreover, this was the first time in his life he had ever been drunk, and this novel experience was something he would savor for a while.

While Yang Lei was still savoring the feeling of being drunk, Xiao Ma had unknowingly brought him to the central region of the fourth continent.

(PS: This chapter is a bit filler. Actually, I wanted to describe how Yang Lei managed to ride the pony. Given the pony's aloof and proud personality, it would have been difficult for Yang Lei to ride it unless he specifically found an opportunity that made it feel helpless. After all, practice makes perfect...)

0556 War with the Snake King

The central region of the Fourth Continent is a very quiet environment because no animal dares to approach it. All creatures of the Fourth Continent know that this is the absolute territory of the Serpent King, and anyone who steps in will die.

Even plants weren't considered high-level beings, not because they were eaten by the snake king. The snake king doesn't eat plants; it's a carnivore.

This is because the food giant Earth, the fourth continent, grows here, which monopolizes a large amount of nutrients. It even continuously absorbs the nutrients of the entire Earth. It's better in the distance, but the closer you get to Earth, the less nutrients the plants get, and naturally they can't grow to a very advanced level.

Just then, a two-meter-tall 'pony' came from afar carrying a person lying on its back.

They were Xiao Ma and Yang Lei.

Even before they got close to the actual central area, Pony already showed a wary expression.

After being baptized by the four kings, Little Horse has grown a lot, at least in terms of Qi – he can react quickly.

For example, even before the snake king appeared, it could already sense the snake king's presence, or even its gaze.

Yang Lei didn't react much; he simply opened his previously closed eyes, lay back on the pony, and looked at the giant snake head that had descended from the clouds, along with its enormous eyes.

"hiss."

The snake king flicked its tongue, a method it used to sense the strength of its enemies, much like how the wolf king uses its sense of smell to obtain information about its target. The snake king was highly authoritative in the field of touch.

But today it encountered Yang Lei, who simply snorted and blocked the snake king's probe.

Not only that, Yang Lei gently lifted his nose, subtly activating the Demon King's sense of smell, and in turn, sniffed out the Snake King's information.

"so it is."

Yang Lei only needed to sniff the snake king to grasp all its information. He not only knew its fighting moves and strengths, but also its history of growing from a small snake to its current state.

Why would the Eight Kings voluntarily protect the Earth's entire meal?

Because their species became so powerful because of the Earth's bounty.

The Eight Kings do not exist independently. For example, the War Wolf is just one type of wolf, the Snake King Mother Snake is also one type of snake, and the Horse King Hercules, the Ape King, the Whale King, and the Deer King are all just one type of a large group of creatures.

They became a transcendent race because they received the bounty of the entire Earth.

It can be said that in ancient or primordial times, the Eight Kings' clan became the most powerful race because they ate the entire meal of the earth, and they have continued to hold the position of the Eight Kings to this day.

It is even possible that, apart from the Ape King, the other eight kings were originally the eight kings.

For example, the Horse King is said to be an immortal being, and the Tumbler Sage even said that there has been no new Hercules for tens of thousands of years, which shows how terrifying the number of years it has lived must be.

The same goes for the Deer King. On its back there are even the original species of the Demon Serpent, known as an ancient magical beast, and other original species of ferocious beasts. So, how many years has it lived?

It is precisely because they received the bounty of the Earth's entire feast that the Eight Kings consciously guarded the Earth's entire feast on their respective continents. And it is precisely because they had already tasted it that they would not again peek at or covet the deliciousness of the Earth's entire feast.

Of course, the purpose of protecting the Earth's whole meal is not to prevent others from eating it, but simply to put it to the test.

If they cannot even pass their test, they will never entrust the entire Earth to them.

Yang Lei had only sniffed the snake king once, yet he had already obtained such a huge amount of information, which made him feel somewhat fortunate.

Fortunately, he had witnessed A'lu's abilities while inside Ligaluru's body, otherwise he would have definitely missed such a good opportunity.
