Chapter 62 Heat the Oil in a Pan
The bloody air permeated the ruined twin towers.
The mountain of minotaur corpses lay in front of the collapsed building.
The dark red blood was still flowing out, forming a red stream on the bumpy ground.
"Master, you are not strong anymore, you are ridiculously strong, way off the mark!" Xiao Hei flew to Chen Ping's side.
"You hid the fastest during the war, and now you flatter, one is worth two!" Chen Ping taunted.
"Master, it's unfair! I know myself. If I can't beat you, but I still have to force it, wouldn't that cause trouble for you?" Xiao Hei was aggrieved.
"Forget it, how about the improvement this time?" Chen Ping asked.
Xiao Hei's innate skill can improve his strength by absorbing the blood and life of scarlet beasts.
However, for the same scarlet beast, the first absorption is the best.
"With another hundred or so level 3 scarlet beasts, I should be able to upgrade to level 4!" Xiao Hei was a little excited.
By absorbing the Guiling Grass, Xiao Hei completed the boundary breaking and raised the upper limit to level 4.
Among the alien insects, being able to reach level 4 is definitely unprecedented, and it is unlikely that there will be many in the future.
"One hundred? There is only one left in the entire Binhai!"
Chen Ping shook his head, but when the Scarlet Secret Realm arrives, there will be more level 3 scarlet beasts there.
"Master, I have a bold idea!"
"What?"
"Catch a few different level 3 scarlet beasts, then crossbreed them, and regenerate a few new species..."
"Your idea is good, don't think about it next time!"
Chen Ping was too lazy to pay attention to Xiao Hei, and walked towards the corpse of the Minotaur.
"There are so many left?"
"I can't eat it, and it's useless to eat it... No! Its corpse can be used to refine pills, which is useful to the master, so I didn't want to eat it! Master, I have worked hard for you, and I am really worried!"
Xiao Hei flew up and down around Chen Ping.
Chen Ping ignored it and put the body of the minotaur into the space stone.
Fortunately, he left an extra space stone, otherwise it would not be able to hold the body of the minotaur.
Then, in a pool of blood, he found an object with a faint red glow.
Three scarlet coins, a blue quality turntable, three green quality turntables, and an iron rod.
"Fire knife? The black knife is gone!"
Chen Ping looked at the blue quality turntable and was happy.
However, the "sacrifice" for twelve seconds in a row consumed Chen Ping's forty years of life. He now has only two years of life left, so he naturally cannot open this blue quality turntable.
Chen Ping's original plan was to eliminate the two remaining level three scarlet beasts in Binhai, and then return to the Tiemu camp to wait for the arrival of the scarlet secret realm.
However, the "sacrifice" could no longer be used, the black knife was damaged, and the last scarlet beast was stronger than the minotaur.
For safety reasons, Chen Ping gave up the idea of killing the last level 3 scarlet beast and returned to Tiemu Camp to rest. Bai Yue still had five bottles of intermediate life potions.
In addition, the scarlet coins in his hand could also be used to upgrade the weapons in his hand. It would not be too late to kill the level 3 scarlet beast after he was fully prepared.
Anyway, with the current strength of the surviving humans in Binhai, even if it doubled, it might not be the opponent of the level 3 scarlet beast. Its life was safer than Chen Ping's.
After collecting all the spoils, Chen Ping found a car that could still be started and drove to the old site of the Dawn Camp with the unconscious Xiaobai.
The sky was getting dark, and the scarlet wilderness was full of killing.
Ma Zi's team arrived at the Dawn Camp in the afternoon.
The fire burned everything in the camp to ashes. Without the rotting bones, the air in the Dawn Camp was particularly fresh.
"Shengge, a while ago, a series of level 3 scarlet beasts disappeared inexplicably. Do you think anyone can kill a level 3 scarlet beast alone?"
Duan Zixuan was on guard outside the camp. Looking at the darkness in the distance, he was terrified. He quickly found a topic and chatted with Ye Shengge next to him.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Ye Shengge shook his head.
Although their current strength has made a qualitative leap, the sense of oppression brought by the level 3 scarlet beast is unprecedentedly huge. Ye Shengge does not believe that such a powerful monster can be killed alone.
"I don't think this is possible, but... have you noticed that every time a level 3 scarlet beast disappears, Brother Dong seems to leave for a while. Isn't this... too coincidental?"
Although Duan Zixuan's brain is not very bright, he will occasionally be smart.
"Brother Dong?"
When mentioning Chen Ping, Ye Shengge hesitated. This person knows too much about the scarlet world, like an encyclopedia.
Although before the end of the world, the game "Scarlet Doomsday" appeared, allowing everyone to have an advance understanding of this world.
But the real Scarlet Doomsday is completely different from the one in the game.
One is just learning to add one to one in kindergarten, and the other is learning calculus in college.
But Chen Ping is very comfortable here, and even knows how to use Ye Shengge's Nether Fire.
"Brother Dong is too mysterious, I can't tell!" Ye Shengge shook his head.
"Shengge, look at the light over there, could it be the Scarlet Wanderer!" Duan Zixuan suddenly pointed to the distance.
Ye Shengge looked stern and quickly opened the bracelet.
Suddenly, the whole camp rang loudly.
"Unknown survivors are approaching!" Ye Shengge shouted.
The few people who were sleeping in the tent woke up immediately, holding their weapons, and walked out directly.
The light source moved quickly, from far to near.
It stopped slowly outside the camp.
"Bang!"
The car door opened and Chen Ping walked out of the car.
"Brother Dong! It's you! You scared me so much that I was sweating!" Duan Zixuan was relieved when he saw Chen Ping.
"You peed again?" Ye Shengge looked disgusted.
"I'm sweating, it's sweat!" Duan Zixuan's face turned red.
Chen Ping shook his head. It was rare to see so many "lively treasures" in the scarlet apocalypse.
In his previous life, he hunted scarlet beasts every day, and killing and blood gradually devoured his mind.
So, after rebirth, he also tried his best to adjust his mentality.
However, with this group of weird teammates around him, he did not feel that he was controlled by killing.
"Dongzi, you're back!" Ma Zi separated the crowd and walked out.
"Yeah!" Chen Ping nodded and took Xiaobai down from the co-pilot.
"This is..."
"Xiaobai was slightly injured, it's not a big problem!"
"That's good, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Xin, go and set up two tents!"
Before Ma Zi finished speaking, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Xin had already started to set up the tents.
"Let me do it, you are so clumsy, I must set up this tent for Brother Dong!" Ye Shengge hurried over.
"Wait for me! I... I'll go change my pants first!" Duan Zixuan walked halfway and found that his pants were still dripping with "sweat", and his face was a little embarrassed.
"It's getting late, everyone should rest early after you finish your work!"
...
Nothing happened overnight, and before dawn, Chen Ping got up early, went to the next tent, and looked at Xiaobai.
"Woo woo woo..."
Xiaobai had woken up, but his body was still very weak and his face was very pale.
"It's okay, after you go back, take a good rest for a few days, and you will be fine!" Chen Ping squatted beside Xiaobai and comforted him.
"Woo woo woo..."
Xiao Bai turned over and rubbed against Chen Ping's legs affectionately.
Soon, the others also got up one after another, and Su Xixi couldn't wait to find Chen Ping.
"Brother Dong, where is that egg?"
Su Xixi wanted to find Chen Ping last night, but it was too late, and Chen Ping's face was full of fatigue, and he was holding the injured and unconscious Xiao Bai, so Su Xixi had to suppress her eagerness.
"Here!"
Chen Ping took out the scarlet beast egg from the space stone.
The black runes, flashing with mysterious light, filled the entire tent.
Su Xixi couldn't hide her excitement and subconsciously swallowed.
"Brother Dong, I... I really don't know how to thank you. You are my reborn parents. How about I worship you as my adoptive father!"
"Ahem... No need, you just need to give me something of equal value!"
Chen Ping was speechless. He really couldn't understand what this little girl was thinking.
"Okay, don't worry, I will never let you pay in vain!" Su Xixi said firmly.
Chen Ping was naturally relieved, after all, Su Xixi's mysterious sachet was still in his hand.
Su Xixi's hand stroked the scarlet beast egg back and forth, with an expression of great enjoyment.
Then, she ran out with two ponytails.
"Captain Ma Zi, Captain Ma Zi, do we have a big pot?"
"There is one in the car, what's wrong?"
"Heat the oil in the pot!" Su Xixi said excitedly.
Chen Ping heard this and was full of doubts.
There are many strange ways to hatch scarlet beast eggs, and Chen Ping doesn't know much.
"Is this a new way of hatching?"
Chen Ping followed out of the tent.
In the future, in the scarlet secret realm, you may also encounter good scarlet beast eggs. If you can master the safe hatching method, you can definitely multiply your strength several times.
After all, most people who hatch scarlet beast eggs are swallowed directly by the scarlet beasts that have just come out while the beast eggs are hatching.
Ma Zi didn't know what Su Xixi was going to do, but seeing that she came out of Chen Ping's tent with a familiar egg in her hand, he didn't ask much and asked Jiang Cheng and Jiang Xin to heat the oil in the pot.
In the wilderness, they usually eat cold food and dare not make a fire.
But with Chen Ping in the team, Ma Zi didn't worry about the threat of the scarlet beast at all.
Not long after, the oil in the pot began to boil and roll.
This is the animal oil extracted from the scarlet beast, which is more unpleasant than the plant extract, and has a very fishy smell.
However, in the scarlet apocalypse, as long as the food can fill the stomach and keep people alive, the taste is the least important.
"Bang!"
Su Xixi was on the side, holding her tower shield and violently hitting the scarlet beast egg.
"Damn, it's really hard!"
Su Xixi spitted and rolled up her sleeves. The slender arms suddenly bulged with muscles, looking more muscular than Ma Zi.
"Bang!"
The whole earth trembled under the fierce impact of the black tower shield, but the scarlet beast egg remained motionless.
"It's a bit difficult!"
Su Xixi turned her head and looked at Chen Ping: "Brother Dong, do you have anything harder, a stick, a club or something like that!"
The first to be stunned after hearing her words were Ye Shengge and Duan Zixuan.
"Is this something we can see?" Duan Zixuan touched his chin.
"This... is it free?" Ye Shengge stared at her with a mean look.
