Master Changsheng

Chapter 423, Section 420: Solving the Case with Barbecue

Ankai guessed correctly.

A towering figure simply cannot achieve that level of skill.

And this was the work of the [God of Magic]!

After the physical talents of the abyssal creatures were taken away, the abyssal creatures took on their current state.

"Who was behind this?!"

Ankai pondered for a moment, then summoned the most intelligent beings within the [Domain].

Wayne, Ray, the Great Vertical Eye Spirit, the Donglin Spirit, the Light-Taking Spirit, Chris, and the Hanks Couple Spirits

And Nurnexus, who was just there to make up the numbers.

They all emerged from the [domain].

It's worth mentioning that this is one of the few times the Hanks have ventured outside the "domain".

It wasn't that Ankai wouldn't let them leave the Domain, but rather that the Hanks couple preferred to stay in the Domain rather than live a stable life there.

In Hanks' words, "I'm getting old, I can't take a shock."

This was because Ankai encountered a difficult situation, and in desperation, he summoned the Hanks couple from the [domain].

It's no exaggeration to say that the guys Ankai has summoned are truly intelligent, representing the pinnacle of intelligence within the Good Family.

Of course, their main focus is...

—The aspect of Yin people.

Many spirits and living beings came out and learned that Ankai was currently facing troubles.

They didn't joke around or reminisce as they usually do.

Instead, without any arrangement from Ankai, they immediately devoted themselves to exploring the origin of the sculpture in front of them.

Even Hanks simply nodded silently to Ankai, and then, with Widow Wang in tow, began to examine the human-shaped sculpture in front of them in a seemingly serious manner.

On the contrary, Chris stayed by Ankai's side.

Without saying anything, she had Ankai lie on a platform supported by her legs and gently massaged Ankai's temples.

The technique is exquisite.

At this moment, Chris's actions and behavior speak louder than a thousand words.

Ankai's restless heart was soothed by Chris and gradually calmed down.

oh.

Chris didn't investigate the origin of the sculpture.

There was one guy who didn't go.

It's none other than someone else.

It was Nurnexus, who was just there to make up the numbers.

Lying on Ankai's side, it resembled a loyal guard dog.

It even slightly raised its rear end, ready to let Ankai beat it up and release its pent-up frustration.

It can be said that each of the creatures and spirits summoned by Ankai has its own purpose.

With the sculpture right in front of us, if we're talking about who's making the fastest progress, it has to be getting the light.

The sculptures in front of me gave Qu Guang a sense of familiarity.

He murmured subconsciously: A being from the abyss?

An Kai's soft voice immediately reached his ears: "These are all creatures of the abyss!"

After speaking, it seemed as if he was explaining.

The living beings and true spirits who were investigating all showed expressions of sudden realization.

Even Nurnexus, who was lying to one side, followed suit with a look of sudden realization.

Although Nurnexus didn't know why those guys were doing this, following the crowd was always the right thing to do!

The answer will not be found in a short time.

After receiving a massage from Chris for a while, Ankai got up from Chris's lap.

Then he pulled out his own barbecue grill.

He took out several intact pieces of monster meat from the [domain], skillfully cleaned them, and threw them onto the barbecue grill to roast.

During this period, Ankai did not add any other seasonings.

The only ingredient he used was his own magical elemental energy.

Even so, the grilled meat instantly releases a rich aroma.

The taste is just as good as the roasted meat that Ankai used to make with seasonings.

Ankai has always been very open-minded when faced with thorny issues.

He might feel confused and troubled for a while.

However, after the mediation, An Kai's mind will become incredibly clear.

Eat when you're hungry, drink when you're thirsty, and don't let things weigh on your mind.

Is there anything that a barbecue can't solve?

If so, then two meals.

This is a habit that Ankai has maintained since entering this world.

I would never indulge my own cravings.

The world is dangerous enough. If he is always on edge and has no hobbies or leisure activities, how will he face the long years to come?

He's immortal!

Therefore, from the very beginning, An Kai has always maintained a calm mindset when encountering difficulties.

It's either about satisfying your appetite or fulfilling your physiological needs.

Anyway, someone is working hard for him, so there's no rush.

The meat sizzled on the grill.

A unique aroma emanates from the oven, permeating the world.

This caused many creatures, the very spirits, who were exploring the sculpture to unconsciously twitch their throats involuntarily.

His mouth was drooling profusely.

Hanks couldn't help but turn back to look at Ankai repeatedly, trying to hear him say, "Come and eat together."

Unfortunately, Hanks won't be able to live to see that kind of scene.

Nurneseus had already been wagging its tail and lying down next to the oven, occasionally breathing fire to help it burn without Ankai's command.

All of this is just so I can have a bite of delicious grilled meat.

But they were all overthinking it.

Ankai wouldn't share the grilled meat with them.

Firstly, these grilled meats are not easy to prepare.

Even Ankai was marinated for decades using his own magical elements.

[Domain] There aren't many barbecues made this year.

There were quite a few, but each one was precious enough.

The oldest item in the [domain] is a batch of 136-year-old roasted meat, which Ankai considers to be the most valuable.

He plans to marinate these roasted meats for thousands of years before tasting them again.

The roasted meat had been marinated by Ankai with his own magical elements for a long time, and had already acquired some of Ankai's magical abilities.

To be precise, it is the initial framework of the spell, and it can even enhance Ankai's own understanding of the spell.

This is why Ankai is unwilling to share with other living beings.

It takes a long time to make.

The quantity is small.

It is highly effective.

Of course, while we can't share the barbecue, we can still let them smell it.

Don't underestimate the power of just smelling; it can have immediate effects on them.

For example, it can enhance the overall improvement of each person's "magical elements", "physical talents", "mind" and other aspects.

It's no exaggeration to say that just smelling these grilled meats is enough to turn an ordinary creature into a "god" in an instant!

This is the powerful effect of grilling meat!

I wanted to share this with Chris.

But Chris refused to accept it no matter what.

Chris has a very clear understanding of herself.

Ankai wouldn't even share with Wayne, so what would it mean if she got to eat barbecue?

Even if Wayne doesn't say it out loud or in his heart.

However, resentment will still arise, even if it only lasts for a second.

For Chris, her pursuit of strength has not been as great since she reunited with Ankai.

So, as for any talk of improving strength, just take a whiff.

There's no need for Wayne to harbor any resentment towards her or Ankai because of this.

That's where Chris's brilliance lies.

He never claimed credit for his work.

He constantly reminded himself of his position, always protected An Kai, and did everything from An Kai's perspective.

Only by perfecting the details can one reap sufficient rewards in the major matters.

For example, the obedience of the creatures of the House of Goodness to Chris when Ankai is not around.

Ankai was often absent, and it was Chris who took over the care of the Good House's inhabitants.

Why did it go so smoothly?

It's because Chris has always maintained a consistent attitude in the smallest details.

This is why the remaining creatures of the Good House would spontaneously protect Chris even when Ankai was not around.

They spontaneously obeyed Chris's orders.

This is the reward Chris receives for being respectful and proper in the little things in life.

In a virtuous family.

Ankai is undoubtedly the core player.

This goes without saying.

Below Ankai.

Originally, Wayne was the only "left-hand man" in the Good House, serving as the de facto head steward and taking over from Ankai to handle the rest of the Good House's affairs in an orderly manner.

Wayne has truly accompanied Ankai step by step to where he is today.

His contributions to Ankai and the House of Goodness are self-evident; no one in the House of Goodness disrespects Wayne's existence.

And with Chris joining.

In particular, Chris's repeated disappearances and her willingness to step forward and shoulder the immense pressure of her duties or when Ankai was not around earned her the recognition of some of the creatures in the House of Goodness.

In addition, Chris's attention to detail made her even more respected by the creatures of the Good House, second only to Wayne in a short period of time.

Of course, for Wayne, Chris is definitely more important than him.

Otherwise, every time Ankai disappeared, it was Wayne who would take the initiative to talk to Chris about what to do next.

Instead of Chris actively seeking out Wayne.

It's not just because of Chris and Ankai's relationship.

Furthermore, Chris's actions had already earned Wayne's approval.

I heard the person next to me refuse to reply.

An Kai simply smiled and did not press the matter further.

It must be admitted that with Chris's help and participation, the House of Goodness's supreme trio has finally completed the last piece of the puzzle.

This forms a powerful trio with Ankai at the core and Wayne and Chris as his right and left arms.

As for the remaining creatures, their weight and abilities are inferior to Wayne and Chris.

Even the newly joined Sally Bucklin is no exception.

To put it bluntly, Sally-Buklin's status is comparable to that of the Abyss Consort whom Ankai previously favored and pampered: [Lord of Life].

It was only because Sally Buckerling was Will Buckerling's sister that Ankai had a special feeling for her.

After all, Will-Bucklin has always been the first [divinely descended] being that Ankai has recognized!

Moments later, the aroma of the roasted meat reached its peak.

Like dancing magical elemental sprites, they twirled and fluttered in the air.

Oh, right, it's a barbecue-flavored elf.

Even for An Kai, his taste buds had already been stimulated.

In this perplexing situation, surrounded by numerous bizarre sculptures of abyssal creatures, enjoying a delicious barbecue is simply the most comfortable thing ever!

Ankai reached out and grabbed the roasted meat covered in magical elements, slowly putting it into his mouth and chewing it.

As the roasted meat was eaten, the unique aroma reached its peak.

Wayne and the others were still enjoying the aroma of the barbecue.

They were all taken aback.

Then, a series of flashes of inspiration came to my mind.

One flash of inspiration after another appeared.

The sculpture dilemma that had seemed insurmountable suddenly became clear.

One idea after another flooded my mind uncontrollably, and then I couldn't wait to put them into action.

And their strength, under the influence of the exotic aroma of barbecue, also improved by leaps and bounds uncontrollably!

Wayne and his team made great progress in their research thanks to a simple barbecue.

Everything is moving in a positive direction.

Of course, while progress is being made faster, there are also negative impacts.

For example, Wayne and his friends drool uncontrollably.

His throat kept churning, and he kept swallowing saliva.

The same applies to Chris.

Nurnexus went even further, drooling all over the place.

A pool of clear water formed at its chin.

However, Nurnexus was confident that he could get his hands on it.

Because Nurnexus's goal was never to roast meat.

Instead, it was a bone that Ankai didn't care about.

Sure enough, after slowly finishing a piece of roasted meat with the bone, Ankai threw the still fragrant bone in front of Nurnexius without thinking.

Clang.

The bone hit the ground.

With the fastest speed he had ever used, Nurnexus stretched out his head, opened his mouth, and precisely bit the bone that bounced slightly upon touching the ground.

He put it all in his mouth.

Look around cautiously.

Believe it or not, the moment Lei and the enormous vertical-eyed True Spirit started gnawing on the bone, a look of regret was visibly revealed.

time flies.

The amount of roasted meat in front of Ankai kept decreasing.

Wayne and his team are making faster and faster progress in their investigation of the sculpture.

The final answer is about to emerge.

In fact, An Kai had already guessed some of the final answers.

But he was enjoying the delicious barbecue and was too lazy to think about it.

After all, Wayne and his team's research progress was the same as Ankai's conjecture.

If the guess is correct, what follows will be a tough battle.

Being able to comfortably enjoy a delicious barbecue before a tough battle is something many living beings long for.

Even the [God of Law] clone probably didn't expect this.

The mystery they left behind did not stump An Kai and his team at all.

In fact, the case was solved by An Kai's men because of a barbecue.

Only the [God of Law] avatar was unaware of all this. If he knew all this, he might spit out a mouthful of blood.

It looks like it was arranged casually.

The "Demonic God" clones are misleading because buying these sculptures leaves many clues.

According to the prediction of the [God of Law] avatar, these misleading statements should be able to hold off the opponent for at least a year!

Because he left numerous "temptation" spell arrays on these sculptures.

No need to actively trigger it; it will automatically trigger just by glancing at it.

It makes you so engrossed in exploring sculptures that you forget the true purpose of being in [Divine Academy: World of Patience].

It was through this "temptation" that the [God of Law] was able to trick the [God of Light] and the [God of Darkness] into cooperating and allowing him to condense an avatar from his own body.

Although the "temptation" magic circle on the sculpture wasn't at its full power at this moment, the [God of Magic] believed it was sufficient for use in [Divine Court Academy: World of Patience].

How could they possibly be stronger than the Supreme God?

The barbecue was gradually emptied.

An Kai's appetite was gradually satisfied.

He swallowed the last piece of roasted meat and casually tossed the bone to Nurnexus.

An Kai stood up, his eyes narrowed and a satisfied look on his face.

His figure flashed.

We arrived in front of the group of sculptures.

Wayne and his team had already stopped their investigation.

The answer had already emerged in Wayne's and his team's minds.

Wayne, chosen as their representative, bowed respectfully and spoke in a firm tone:

"Sir, we've found some answers as to who designed the sculpture."
