Chapter 941: Arrangements before Fighting the Abyss
……
As time passed, Sitrali's stomach began to growl louder and louder, protesting that she had not yet eaten.
Stomach: Eat, or I’ll starve to death…
Just when Xitila was feeling a little uncomfortable with hunger, suddenly, she smelled a faint fragrance.
This fragrance is very special. It is neither as strong as the fragrance of flowers nor as direct as the aroma of food. It is a vague and elusive smell.
"Wait a minute, do you smell anything?" Sitrali couldn't help but ask, with a hint of anticipation in her voice.
Sinoning's nose moved as well, and then she smelled the fragrance as well.
"I smell it too. It's such a nice fragrance." Xinoning closed his eyes, carefully felt the faint fragrance in the air, and breathed it deeply into his body.
Seeing this, Mavica also tried to smell it, but unfortunately, her sense of smell was not as sharp as Sinoning and Sitlari's, so she did not smell the fragrance.
"Really? Why can't I smell it?" Mavica shook her head and looked at Xitlari and Xinoning with a puzzled look.
At this time, Shao Yun pushed open the door and walked in, carrying a large pot of steaming venison stew.
"The stew is ready!"
Shao Yun placed the pot of stew on the table, then opened the lid. A rich aroma immediately filled the entire room.
Xitlari sat up suddenly and looked at Shao Yun placing a pot of steaming food on the table.
"I was wondering where this fragrance came from, it turns out something delicious is here!" Xitrali shouted excitedly, jumping off the bed like a spring, and rushed to Shao Yun in two steps, looking at the plate of delicious food with anticipation on her face.
Shao Yun smiled and clapped his hands, saying, "This is something I specially prepared for you all, as a small token of my gratitude for taking care of me during this period of time."
Hearing this, Sinoning quickly sat up from the bed and said happily: "Wow, dinner is ready!"
……
Afterwards, Sinoning, Sitlari and Mavica sat around the table, eager to taste the venison stew made by Shao Yun.
The taste of this stew is so delicious that you can't stop eating it.
No one knew whether it was because they had been hungry for too long or because Shao Yun’s cooking skills were really that superb, but in any case, Xinoning and Xitlari praised the stew highly and ate it with gusto.
Although Mavica was a more elegant eater, she also approved of the dish. After she slowly finished a bowl, she put it down with satisfaction.
However, Sinoning and Xitlari couldn't stop at all. They ate bowl after bowl, as if they would never be full.
Finally, after eating five or six bowls, Xinoning felt that her stomach was about to burst. She lay on the bed contentedly, touched her bulging belly, and said with lingering feeling:
"Hmm, I'm so full... I feel like I'm alive again..."
Xitrali was even more exaggerated. She ate the last bit of food in the bowl with a momentum as if she wanted to swallow the bowl as well, and kept exclaiming in admiration.
"Ah~ It's so delicious... It would be even better if I could pair it with a few bottles of my treasured plum wine!"
Xitela Li still misses her green honey plum wine...
Since Mavica was not very hungry, she was able to evaluate the stew made by Shao Yun in a relatively objective manner.
"Well, this stew is quite good! Big pieces of meat paired with fresh vegetables, the meal is very well matched."
"This soup is rich and mellow, and delicious, but not too salty. It would be perfect if it could be paired with some bread, salty crackers or other staple foods!"
By this time, Sitrali had devoured six bowls of stew.
She put down the bowl reluctantly, then handed the empty bowl to Shao Yun without hesitation, still muttering.
"I want another bowl!"
Shao Yun looked at the empty pot in surprise and said to her helplessly: "Sorry, it's gone. The pot is empty!"
In order to prove that what he said was true, Shao Yun even lifted the empty pot and shook it in front of Xitlari.
Xitrali stared at the empty pot with eyes wide open in disbelief. Disappointment was evident on her face. She muttered, "Ah? How could this happen? I'm not full yet!"
Shao Yun couldn't help but find it a little funny when he saw Xitrali, who seemed to never be full.
This one I made is indeed better than Pearson's, but is it necessary to be so greedy? Is it because I am hungry that I find the belt delicious?
He half-jokingly complained: "I say, this pot of stew is enough for more than a dozen people! You have already eaten six bowls, if you eat more, I'm really afraid you will be stuffed to death!"
After much persuasion, Xitrali finally gave up the idea of continuing to eat.
Soon, Xitila will be afraid, because within five seconds, her brain will send out the signal that she is full...
If I had eaten it again, I would have vomited it out...
……
Sinoning and Xitlari, whose stomachs are about to burst and who can barely walk, will definitely not be able to leave the Holy Flame Arena tonight.
After all, in their current state, it was difficult for them to even move, let alone walk out.
Of course, Shao Yun couldn't possibly let these two girls live in his room.
Fortunately, there are many rooms in this House of Burnout. You can just pick two rooms and the job will be done.
After settling Xinoning and Xitlari, Mavica returned to the office to rest.
However, Shao Yun was not in a hurry to rest, as he had more important things to do.
He was about to leave the Holy Fire Arena and go to his brother-in-law "Kong" to discuss the next battle plan.
And take a look at your own system to see what is going on...
The Nata wilderness at night has a unique flavor.
In the sky, the stars are dotted like jewels inlaid on a huge piece of black velvet, flickering a faint and charming light.
A bright moon hangs high in the night sky, casting a soft and mysterious silver light.
The air around is cool and fresh, making people feel relaxed and happy.
The branches and leaves of the trees swayed gently in the night breeze, making a rustling sound.
The moonlight shines through the gaps in the treetops, sprinkling on the ground in patches, forming patterns of interlaced light and shadow.
After Shao Yun came to the wild and confirmed that there was no one around, he began to secretly call the system in his heart.
"Well, it's time for 'you' to rest enough. Come out and let's have a pre-war meeting."
However, no matter how Shao Yun shouted, the system did not respond, giving people the feeling that it had completely disappeared from this world.
Shao Yun widened his eyes, staring at the motionless system interface, feeling helpless and lost in his heart.
"Well, since you choose to give yourself a long vacation, I won't force you." Shao Yun sighed helplessly and said to himself.
"I'd better go and discuss it with my eldest uncle."
He cleared his throat slightly, raised his voice, and shouted loudly to the surroundings: "Yuan Shang, are you there?"
Before he finished speaking, Yuan Shang's voice suddenly sounded in Shao Yun's ears like a ghost.
"Yes, what's up?"
Shao Yun perked up and asked quickly, "Is my eldest brother-in-law busy now?"
As soon as Shao Yun finished speaking, Kong's voice rang in his ears.
"What's the matter? Brother-in-law, what do you want from me?"
Shao Yun didn't beat around the bush and answered directly: "We need to talk about this. Can you come over and see me?"
Sora's voice responded, "Okay, no problem. Give me a moment."
After about a few minutes, Shao Yun finally saw Kong Heyuanshang's figures slowly approaching from a distance.
The reason why Yuanshang and Kong did not choose to open the abyss portal directly in front of Shao Yun was mainly because they were worried that the remaining abyss aura after the portal was opened would attract some unnecessary attention.
At this moment, Shao Yun looked at his brother-in-law who had hurried over and immediately shouted loudly.
"Brother, we have some important things to discuss."
Kong heard Shao Yun's call and quickly walked up to him. Seeing his anxious face, he couldn't help but ask, "What else is there that you're looking for me so urgently?"
Shao Yun took a deep breath and explained, "It's about going to the Kingdom of Night God to fight against the invasion of the Nata Abyss."
"Didn't you say you would help me during the day? But I took you to see the future ranch."
"I didn't want to bother you so often, but after careful consideration, I think it's better to discuss some things with you earlier."
Kong nodded in understanding. He knew very well that saving Nata was directly related to his sister's safety, so it was okay to make some trouble.
"So what do you need me to do?" Sora asked bluntly.
Shao Yun did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point and put forward his own requirements.
"I want you to be in charge of intelligence work and find out how many Abyss have invaded Nata. Also, the Kingdom of Night God is too big, and we need to plan an attack route."
"It's best if you can bring the Abyss Cult with you. I will then open the Abyss portal and catch them by surprise. It will end right away!"
When Kong heard that this was just a simple intelligence gathering task and a relatively easy task of establishing an outpost base, he readily agreed without saying a word.
"That's no problem. I was also thinking of starting from this aspect. I just don't know if Nata's Night God will allow us to do this."
When Shao Yun heard whether Nata's Night God would agree, he guessed, "She probably won't say anything. After all, we are here to help..."
Having said that, Shao Yun immediately changed the subject and said with a hint of sarcasm: "Besides, her current condition is not very good. She is like a clay Buddha crossing a river, unable to save herself..."
This is the truth. If nothing is done, the Abyss will completely occupy the Kingdom of Night God, then erode Nata, and finally destroy Teyvat...
"Anyway, I'll leave the drawing of the map and the attack routes to you. Is that ok?" Shao Yun handed this important task to Kong.
Kong nodded without hesitation and answered confidently, "No problem, it should be done in the next two days. Don't worry, I, your brother-in-law, can handle this little thing easily."
