Chapter 276 : Camping
Left with no choice, Lonis could only solve it with the bottle.
The process can't be described in detail... But even after finishing, Lonis still felt her body was hot, seeming even more nervous than before she went.
And that bottle containing her energy-filled liquid?
It wasn't thrown away by Elucia either, but seemed to become some kind of "strategic resource" that she stored away.
"Elucia, um..."
"I told you, I'm setting up camp now. If you want to do the big one, just hold it in."
"That's not what I meant, I..."
"Or if you can't hold it, I can use something to plug you up, okay? Hehe, the little tail can become a plug-in, you know?"
......
......
Just like that, under everyone's joint efforts, the camp was quickly completed. There were three small tents arranged in a circle, with a campfire flickering golden light in the center. In this pitch-black Underground World, it appeared especially warm.
"It's done, excellent!"
Suling seemed very excited, and everyone sat around looking quite proud.
This scene really looked like girls going on an outdoor excursion together, and Elucia also shook her head, pretending to be "serious" as she said:
"Yes, I can understand everyone's joy, but before officially starting the fantastic camping in the Underground World, this tour guide has several important matters that everyone needs to remember."
"Eh?"
"First, although this tour group is a pure entertainment group with no paid projects and no induced consumption, absolutely no one is allowed to go anywhere alone! The Underground World is an area our human civilization has never set foot in. We don't know what potential dangers might exist here."
"Understood!"
"Second, because of the darkness of the Underground World, although the native residents here generally have poor vision, their hearing is exceptionally sharp. So everyone remember to speak softly and not make too much noise."
(Who would make noise?)
Just as Lonis was thinking this, her tail was tugged by Elucia.
"Wuah!"
"A sound like that is already the limit. If our voices are too loud, it might cause large-scale monster attacks."
"(Damn it, Elucia is so mean!)"
"Also, no one is allowed to cast large-scale magic at will. Because many species in the Underground World have magical properties, and if they discover a source of magic power, they will gradually approach."
"Yes, that's right..."
After Elucia finished speaking, Sethilu also added: "But everyone doesn't need to worry. I've already set up a defensive barrier in the center of the camp. Even if ordinary monsters come in large numbers, they absolutely cannot invade near the camp. So as long as you stay here, everyone will be perfectly safe."
......
That's how things were.
After setting up the camp, it had also gotten quite late. And this sunless Underground World was gradually becoming dimmer.
Because those fluorescent mushrooms and glowing moss that served as light sources also needed to rest. The entire world gradually became pitch black, and stepping slightly out of the camp meant you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, as if the entire world had disappeared.
This scared Lonis like a soft little girl, only daring to sit in the tent.
She hadn't forgotten that she had originally fallen into the hands of the Abyssal Tentacles monster because of her recklessness—not only was her body being violated, but her consciousness was also tortured by severe pain until it nearly broke.
......
But just staying in the tent didn't mean 100% safety either.
Before long, Senior Zhou Mixue, who was washing ingredients, made a surprised sound: "Ah, this is bad... These ingredients seem to have gone bad and can't be eaten anymore."
"Hmm... Is it because of the teleportation effects? Zhou Mixue, put these aside for now."
......
To ensure safety, the girls had prepared some ingredients when they set out, but now all the food seemed to have expired and was inedible.
This made everyone's food supply somewhat tight. Although there were still some instant packaged foods, there were only 10 portions of these, which meant they would only last for two meals...
And instant foods were suitable for use in dangerous places, so it would be a bit of a waste to eat them so early.
......
......
But just then, Bai Ye stood up.
"Well, everyone doesn't need to worry. Please leave this to the household intelligent doll, Bai Ye Unit 1."
"Eh?"
"Providing delicious meals for humans and making everyone show happy smiles is my duty. May I ask what everyone would like to eat?"
Bai Ye came before everyone like a five-star hotel service staff member, asking earnestly.
"Nothing particularly special, let's keep dinner simple... Bai Ye, can you make tomato cucumber soup?"
"Yes, please leave it to me."
Soon, Bai Ye scattered another batch of seeds on the empty ground beside the camp.
Visibly, the pitch-black soil seemed to be purified, and emerald green sprouts grew from the earth.
"Bai Ye is amazing! This way, they'll grow and bear fruit in less than an hour~!"
"Yes, these seeds were all born from the Tree of Causality, they can completely purify polluted components and grow food for us to eat."
"That's wonderful..."
"Oh right, Bai Ye, take this bottle of drink and use it to irrigate the tomatoes."
"Sister Elucia, this is..."
"It's a nutritional solution I specially prepared. It will definitely make the fruit trees sweeter."
One hour later...
The girls eating dinner made sounds of admiration.
"Wow, it's really delicious! Why is it so fragrant... It doesn't even seem like tomatoes anymore, it's like strawberries~~~~"
Suling waved her spoon, eating several scoops in a row.
"I never thought we could eat tomatoes in the Underground World that rival palace cuisine... The power of Tree Abyss is really amazing..."
Princess Sethilu also looked shocked. Clearly, the tomato cucumber soup completely exceeded her expectations.
But Bai Ye's expression was somewhat embarrassed, blinking her eyes:
"Um... Is it really that delicious? I usually use Tree Abyss fruits to cook, but Dr. Okali's reactions are very ordinary. Everyone doesn't need to specially praise me..."
"It's really true. Bai Ye, won't you try some?"
As she spoke, Zhou Mixue wanted to share the soup in her hands with Bai Ye.
But Bai Ye shook her head, saying:
"No, no need. My battery still has plenty of power, and my digestion ability for food is very poor. Everyone should share it together."
"Oh... But it's really delicious. I feel like even without adding seasoning, I can taste a kind of happy flavor."
......
......
Hearing everyone say this, Lonis wanted to dig straight into the ground.
Others might not know, but Lonis was all too clear... What Elucia had passed over wasn't nutritional solution, but her own liquid!
Why did it turn out like this? Now everyone was saying it was delicious, didn't that mean her liquid was very tasty?
......
Lonis was embarrassed, but she didn't know...
Every time she received a Rainbow Abyss blessing, not only would she obtain the corresponding Rainbow Abyss weapon, but her body would also receive corresponding purification.
Wounds would heal, germs would be expelled, and all impurities on her body would be completely purified along with the Rainbow Abyss power.
So although Lonis was a young girl, her body was purer than a newborn baby's.
And the Tree of Causality? It had originally been irrigated by Lonis's liquid, so receiving the same nourishment again, the fruits it bore became even more delicious~
