Gourmet Hunter: Join the Chat Group

"Let's have some appetizers first."

Qin Zhou disappeared, and a few seconds later, he returned with a huge scallop. The shell was semi-transparent, and as the ambient light changed, the muscle tissue inside the scallop emitted rainbow-like colors.

Rainbow scallops are ubiquitous in this blue galaxy; they're seafood you can just pick up anywhere.

Normally, the brighter the color of food, the greater the possibility of it being poisonous. However, this statement does not always apply in the world.

"Speaking of which, if the mask is such a big seashell, why is the flesh inside so small?" Blackie didn't know how to make a comment.

She had seen other shellfish with similar shell-to-meat ratios, but none this outrageous.

"Is concentrated essence?" Qin Zhou shook his head.

After the scallop meat is removed and exposed to air, the iridescent colors gradually disappear.

After finishing their meal, Qin Zhou and the others shook their heads.

Well, concentrated doesn't necessarily mean the best.

The taste is somewhat different from ordinary scallop meat; it has a sweet and savory flavor, and the texture is similar to a combination of scallop meat and sea urchin. It doesn't give you an overly amazing feeling.

In the realm of seafood, it's considered to be at the bottom level; the flavor is monotonous and lacks impact.

"Don Slime said that an extremely rare luminous mermaid would appear in this galaxy. I wonder if we'll be able to encounter one," Atacino said with some anticipation, his interest dampened by the lack of an iridescent scallop.

Mermaids, I wonder what they look like.

"A divine ingredient?" Qin Zhou nodded.

In this universe, the most precious and delicious ingredients are the ingredients of the gods, the original ingredients from the ultimate place, whose taste has not evolved or changed over the long years.

Don Slime was the one who knew the most about things in the universe, and all this information was provided to them by Don Slime.

Ocean, you are all water~

They entered an ocean planet where the land area was pitifully small, barely enough for a few people to stand on.

"Hey, how did you two manage to float on water?" Hei Dai asked, scratching his head as he looked at Qin Zhou and his companion, who were standing on the water but couldn't sink.

You guys are all showing off like this, it's making us so embarrassed.

Himeko and the others: We're not embarrassed.

"It's very simple. Just step out with your other foot before one foot sinks, and repeat this process, and you can move freely on the water," Qin Zhou said casually, even demonstrating how to dance on the sea.

The tips Master Jiro taught me are really useful; I never thought I could still use them even in space.

Hei Dai tried Qin Zhou's method, but ended up falling directly into the sea.

It sounds simple, but in practice, it's really hard to control your legs; it feels like your body can't keep up with your brain.

Seeing Hei Dai looking like a drowned rat in a comical state, everyone laughed, finding it hard not to chuckle.

Hei Dai let out a soft hum, and energy surged, drying the clothes, but white salt crystals remained on the black skirt.

Although she could stand on the water using her own strength, she refused to believe that she could not walk on the water on her own two feet without using any strength.

Despite repeated attempts and failures, Hei Dai never lost heart.

Silk jellyfish, with their tentacles reaching lengths of thousands of meters, stretch out their thin, cicada-wing-like bodies in the seawater, just like flowing silk.

"Hey, aren't you going to eat?" Qin Zhou found it amusing to watch Hey fall into the sea again and again; he was really persistent.

"You guys eat."

Blackie continued to try, and now it can stay on the surface of the sea for a few seconds, grasping at the door a little, but it cannot stay there for long before sinking back into the sea.

Due to a lack of exercise over a long period, Hei Dai's body has become somewhat rusty.

Once she masters this little trick, she'll show it off to Artoria.

[Gudako]: "Haki Planet, are you still alive?"

Xing didn't reply, and everyone wondered if he was really dead.

[Ruan Dianmei]: "I just happened to see the scene of Xing falling down, here is a photo."

Ruan Mei posted the photo in the group chat. Xing had a large bump on his head and was lying on the ground, seemingly in critical condition.

【ShitBigKick】: "Today we gather here to commemorate our good friend in the group. Her sacrifice is worth half a day of remembrance for the entire chat group."

[Dead Pilot]: "Isn't this a bit too cold-blooded? They're still not stopping work?"

[Sister Cabbage]: "I feel like we should at least have a day to mourn, right?"

[Ahoge]: "Agreed."

[Star Forger]: "Strongly condemn Brother Sunday."

【Star Forger】: "Fufu, go find Master Walnut of the Hall of Rebirth. The other world needs the Hall of Rebirth's Supreme VIP service."

[God of Justice]: "Alright, I'll head to Liyue right away."

Once Teyvat has built a hundred layers of walls, she can then consider building walls further away to prevent enemies from getting close to Teyvat.

[Galaxy Baseball Man]: "I feel like I can still be saved. By the way, what is the Hall of Rebirth?"

【Star Forger】: "The Hall of Rebirth offers a comprehensive one-stop service, guaranteeing that all your affairs before and after death will be handled clearly, so that you can go to the next world without regrets."

【Star Forger】: "Even the Rock King Emperor said it was good after using it."

[Galaxy Baseball Man]: "Forget it, I won't use it. Sunday Bro really goes all out."

Xing gently touched the bump on her head, but each touch brought excruciating pain.

Just wait and see how I get my revenge after you board the train in jail.

Chapter 221 Mermaid

"Hahaha, I did it!"

Blackie stood tall on the sea, laughing loudly to the sky, without sinking. Look how much the child has been driven to despair.

You can try many times, but as long as you succeed on the last try, that is victory.

Seeing Hei Dai so excited, Qin Zhou and the others gave a symbolic round of applause and cheers to satisfy Hei Dai's vanity.

The applause was naturally very pleasing to Hei Dai, who proudly raised his neck.

It's not that difficult; I've already mastered it.

Raiden looked at Buyer, his eyes asking a question.

Buyer blinked. Although it was indeed a success, she couldn't help but admire Blackie's perseverance.

Three hundred times of practice, which means sinking more than three hundred times, would have made one feel like they'd been pickled in seawater.

Don't be fooled by how simple it sounds; it actually requires very strict standards in terms of body coordination and strength control.

No one can help; you have to understand and try everything on your own.

"Eeya—ya—"

A high-frequency vibrato, like the sound of a dolphin, rang out, as if it were an echo from the deep sea.

The seawater resonated, and an incredibly powerful fragrance appeared, almost instantly permeating the entire galaxy.

The aroma was indescribable and irresistible. Qin Zhou and the others' eyes lit up, and their cells spontaneously cheered with joy.

"Divine ingredients!"

Qin Zhou and Atasino exchanged a glance and guessed the source in unison.

Even the Sun Gem meat didn't give them this feeling.

They had heard Don Slime say that different colored gourmet cells correspond to different ingredients, but only the divine ingredients from the final land can resonate with gourmet cells of all colors.

The Azure Galaxy is the largest ocean galaxy in the universe. Every year, the Radiant Mermaids leave their final destination and come here to rest for a period of time.

In other words, the Radiant Mermaid is one of the few beings who knows how to reach the final destination.

Qin Zhou led the group back to the Star Train to search this star system.

She roams among the stars, her swaying tail fin scattering countless starlight, as if dragging a magnificent galaxy. Her blue scales shimmer with different colors, and the stars become her backdrop.

"So beautiful! It's like the face was sculpted by the universe itself. No wonder it's a divine ingredient." Atasino was stunned by the radiant mermaid's appearance.

Her pale skin shimmered with an aurora-like glow, and her bright, watery eyes created a striking contrast, giving the impression that she was easily deceived.

"Her strength is not weak at all; her capture level is much higher than that of the Blue Demon's clone." Qin Zhou revealed a meaningful smile.

She appears harmless, but her body contains terrifying power.

As a divine ingredient, capable of traversing the universe at will, how could she possibly be a weakling? Those who treated her as prey are long gone, their graves overgrown with weeds.

For her, exploding into a star should be something she could do very easily.

"Yes, but since it's called a divine ingredient, do we really want to eat it?" Atasino asked hesitantly.

Even if they had the ability to capture it, they wouldn't be able to bring themselves to eat it, after all, it's such a beautiful mermaid, not some other ferocious beast.

Don Slime didn't mention how to cook the Radiant Mermaid, probably because he didn't know and had only mentioned it.

The luminous mermaid swimming in the Ocean of Stars noticed the Star Train's presence, her bright, watery eyes sparkling with curiosity before she vanished in an instant.

"We'we made a choice..."

Cocolia's Execution Song, a Mother's Day classic, played in the train carriage.

Qin Zhou and the others turned to look in the direction of the phonograph. The shimmering mermaid entered the carriage and curiously fiddled with the little gadget that could play music.

Hei Dai frowned. For some reason, this was the first time she had heard this song. Although it was indeed very energetic, she had a strange feeling in her heart.

It seemed as if, in the next second, her rebellious son, Xiao Mo, was about to defy his superiors and rebel against the Heavenly Gang.

Mordred: The tip of the spear, no, the tip of the sword, is already on fire, damn it—draw it!

The little gadgets in the carriage were all novel to the mermaid, things she had never seen before. She looked at them from the left and touched them from the right, and eventually she even wanted to go into the driver's cab to take a look.

"Stop! You can't go in here!"

Qin Zhou stood in front of the mermaid and said, "This isn't your home. Please don't be so familiar with me."

Let me see~

The group heard a soft voice, not speaking, but rather a kind of telepathic transmission, speaking directly into their heads.
