After I quit the team, they chased me

I just kept it in my heart and didn't express it as strongly as Di Lu.

Old Martin was calm and had no psychological burden.

He is old and has experienced both good and bad.

Even if Simon was nice to him, that couldn't outweigh his twenty years of service.

As long as the old team speaks, he definitely can't hide.

"Martin, have you ever eaten hotpot?" Old Wim next to him was holding an old round fan and sitting leisurely with his legs crossed.

Old Martin put his thoughts aside and focused on the hotpot stew in front of him.

He thought about it and felt that the word hotpot was a bit awkward.

This is a word Simon made up himself. No one in Hightown uses this word to mean stew.

So, old Martin said bluntly:

"It's called hot pot, but isn't it just a stew? What's so special about stews?"

"Well, indeed..."

Old Wim pondered for a moment. What he said made sense and he couldn't refute it.

but!

Why did Simon emphasize that it was hot pot?

A smart man like Simon would not put too much emphasis on this small detail.

Another moment passed.

Everyone watched as red peppers, dark red butter, and various spices were poured into the hot pot. The white turtle meat was instantly dyed a fiery red, and the rich aroma of butter rushed into the nose.

Xiao Qian, wearing a maid outfit, floated over and brought plates of meat.

The meats were delicately processed and cut into thin slices. The alternating fat and lean textures looked very artistic under the light of the sugar lamp.

By the time everyone came to their senses, there were already three circles of dishes placed next to the big iron pot.

Simon also got some thinly sliced ​​tripe, with distinct grains on the surface. Lying in a chilly ice bowl, it looked ethereal and extremely tempting.

Everyone sniffed it.

In an instant, Little Shark and Di Lu's stomachs were rumbling and they were ready to move.

Even Sister Bai Tang, who usually behaved very reservedly, had her eyes light up.

Just by looking at the amount of the soup base, she could feel that it was extraordinary.

At this time, old Wim asked Martin again:

"Martin, is this hot pot?"

Martin had nothing to say.

It seems a little different from what I imagined.

Besides, just smelling the smell makes me feel a little hungry.

"Simon, is this hot pot?" The girls around him already had starry eyes and were eager to try it.

“Yes, this is hot pot.”

Under the gaze of everyone, Simon took the lead in picking up the chopsticks, looking at the dishes on the plate and choosing the right ones. While waiting for the other dishes to be cooked, he picked up the boiling stone turtle meat from the pot.

After being poured with the butter base, it becomes red, and when you pick it up, it keeps dripping oil and has a fragrant aroma.

No one started eating yet, so the first person to eat the stone turtle meat was left to the group leader, which was reasonable.

Seeing that they didn't pick up their chopsticks, Simon took a bite.

"Hmm?" He frowned slightly.

My body felt as if it was thrown into magma and took a bath in it. My whole body was burned, my skin was cracked, and my bones and flesh were burned. It was extremely uncomfortable.

On a spiritual level, Simon suffered a huge shock.

Fortunately, his dreamer profession itself enhanced his soul strength, which allowed him to hold it in.

But this meat, this taste...it's hard to describe, it was completely beyond his expectations.

It turned out to be a dish with negative effects!

"How about it?"

Everyone looked at Simon's tense and expressionless face and couldn't help but become curious.

Is this delicious or disgusting?

Simon endured the phantom pain and sensation of high temperature and forced himself to swallow the meat.

"It's delicious." Simon commented concisely, speaking very quickly, which did a good job of hiding the uneasiness in his heart.

When everyone heard the leader say this, they could no longer hold back their hands.

What are you waiting for?

Everyone picked up their chopsticks and easily tore off a piece of stone turtle meat. With a wave of their arms, they immediately put it into their mouths.

The quick-handed little shark even ate two pieces of turtle meat in a row, making him the team's fastest player.

However, after eating the meat, everyone had a different expression and put on a "mask of pain", as if they were lying in a pool of magma, and they personally experienced the inhuman environment that the stone turtle meat was in at the time.

"Well--"

"???"

"This……"

Everyone realized instantly that they had been tricked by Captain Simon.

This stone turtle meat... is so uncomfortable. It is as hot as magma, and my whole body feels like it is being burned through by the high temperature.

If the health bar hadn't decreased, everyone would have thought they were under a real attack.

"Simon is so bad that he actually learned to lie."

The little shark was in so much pain that it cried and stuck out its tongue, which felt hot and spicy.

These two pieces of stone turtle meat almost amplified the hot property to the extreme, making her sweat.

"Everyone, have you noticed that after enduring the high temperature, your spirit has become clearer and your magic resistance has increased by ten points?" Simon explained to himself.

Xiao Qian was startled and after carefully sensing it, she found that her soul aura was indeed a little stronger.

However, the others had no means to sense souls, and they all said they had been cheated.

Fortunately, the other dishes are normal, not as negative as the stone turtle meat.

Soon.

When the exotic dishes are cooked in hot pot, they enter your mouth.

Everyone's taste buds exploded, they felt ecstatic and their appetites were whetted.

The unpleasantness caused by the stone turtle meat was instantly forgotten, and everyone rushed to boil the dish and scramble to eat it.

……

After eating and drinking enough.

We lay on the lawn, looking at the bright moon and enjoying the cool breeze blowing across our clothes.

Little Shark felt that his life was a dream. He turned over from the bottom of society and defeated the Earth Dragon Secret Realm. Although he only achieved the first level, it was enough to surpass 90% of the adventurers.

Bai Tang, sweating profusely, lay beside Simon, with his hands on his chest, fingers interlocked, holding the cross tightly, his heart empty.

Although Simon cheated her when eating the stone turtle meat.

But the hot pot eating method that Simon brought refreshed her understanding of food.

Compared to the bland vegetarian dishes we ate every day during the Our Lady Church period.

The butter hotpot was the other extreme, spicy, fragrant and rich, and there was no going back for Notre Dame Church.

She couldn't help but secretly look forward to seeing what mysterious cooking skills Simon had yet to reveal.

She subconsciously called for the coming of light in her heart to wash away the sweat and dirt on everyone's bodies.

The holy light descended upon the Snow Mountain Adventure Group, dyeing everyone on the lawn a pure white. Their hearts gradually emptied, and they felt their souls in the sky, receiving the call of the Virgin Mary.

Everyone relaxed, and a vague image of a figure appeared in their minds, standing in a dim white light, illuminating everyone.

But it was not a female image of the Virgin Mary, but a vague male image.

what is this?

Baitang suddenly stopped praying.

That’s all for today’s prayer of pure light.

If I pray any longer, it would be a bit too much.

Speaking of which, the secret society Simon hasn't held a prayer meeting for a long time.

After her new doctrine was updated last time, many believers expressed their disapproval and left.

Those who stay are the ones who truly need redemption in their hearts.

This is a daily chapter.

Next chapter: Work hard in the code

Chapter 174 Second Level

Sister Sugar hasn't appeared in a long time.

Simon Church is currently on hiatus.

Some of the unsteady believers left quietly and returned to their daily lives.

Just because Simonism no longer believes in Simon, this is completely unacceptable to some groups.

Besides, this was Simon's intention. He didn't want people to believe in him.

This caused their faith to begin to waver.

So they left quietly and did not stay in the Protestant Church.

The believers who stayed behind intensively collected the stories of the snow mountain adventure team every day as spiritual food.

The next morning.

When they learned about the latest progress of the snow mountain adventure team from the relevant newspaper scraps, they were extremely excited.

"Simon and the others have passed the first level."

"Simon——"

Although Simon is no longer a trainee, he cannot represent the majority of trainees.

But Simon's spirit infected them and inspired them to move forward.

……

When Bai Tang wanted to visit Simon, Simon started a new round of strategy discussion.

The original plan was to rest for a few more days.

But after eating the stone turtle meat, he unexpectedly gained a temporary buff of 10 points of magic resistance.

What does ten points of French resistance mean?

Spell damage reduction.

Add to that Bai Tang's 15 points of magic resistance from Pure Light, that means everyone has 25 points of magic resistance.

This can offset a lot of magic damage, and at the same time the pressure on the nurse can be reduced a lot.

So this time cannot be wasted, and the next round of strategy must be started as soon as possible.

Bai Tang's plan had to be abandoned, and Ximen Sect could only be allowed to grow wildly.

Well, anyway, those who can stay are people with firm beliefs.
