Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?-Chapter 1027 - 676: Pioneers of the Gourmet Domain (Part 2)
However, because everyone wanted to go to the gourmet region, no one wanted to spend their days working at the construction site, so these two teams of dragons had to rotate their work periodically.
Sure enough, no intelligent creatures like to work in construction, no matter which world they're in.
This time, Nadi purchased the strategy books specifically for the dragons to browse, so they could gain some general knowledge about the gourmet region and avoid messing up their assignments.
After returning with the strategy book, she stayed up all night formulating several policies.
If you want to enter the gourmet region for assignments, you must understand the related tasks thoroughly, at least be able to recite them before you can enter! And you must complete your assignment before considering issues like your own appetite.
She had a reason for doing this.
At the beginning of the cooperation with the adventurer's guild, there had already been instances where the dragons were suddenly distracted by their favorite foods while working, sometimes eating everything required for the assignment, and even staying in dungeons for days on end without coming out. When asked why they did this, they answered that they tried eating highly poisonous potatoes like the Powerful Banana, got poisoned and swooned, and ended up addicted after consuming them a few times, entering a cycle between hyperactive and unconscious states.
There's no hope; the socialization level of these dragons under her leadership is too low, and they must be strongly disciplined!
The living environment of the Floating Island Dragon Clan was quite different from here in the Warrior Country, and it required time to adapt. During this adaptation period, a lot of trouble was stirred up.
This led to Nadi's stress accumulating so much that once she decided to relax, she would turn into a total airhead.
Though she scolds her clan members, she herself secretly sneaks into the gourmet region to slack off a bit, sometimes completing a few assignments in passing.
Nadi and the experts within her clan have their customized assignments; her current assignment is map exploration.
Exploring the map behind the Rainbow Fruit in the gourmet region.
The adventurers haven't made much progress on developing the gourmet region. Among all the areas in the Sain Dungeon, the gourmet region attracts the most ordinary people and the least experts, making it quite unique.
In the gourmet region, areas accessible to ordinary people are white, slightly dangerous ones are green, while areas near the Rainbow Fruit are blatantly red.
As for the map behind the Rainbow Fruit? A small portion is red, the rest is all represented by the mystery of black.
Because few explore it, those who have ventured there couldn't produce much results. Public exploration essentially halts at the Rainbow Fruit, leaving only the guild financing exploration for what lies beyond.
But to be honest, the area behind the Rainbow Fruit is quite challenging for most people.
The strongest monster near the Rainbow Fruit is the "Troll King Kong," resembling a giant gorilla with many arms. These monsters act in packs and are tremendously powerful, posing severe danger. Furthermore, the Troll King Kong has even stronger mutant individuals within its kind, marking the area red.
In "Food Captive," a single Troll King Kong's level usually ranges from nine to ten.
An individual of level one requires at least ten fully armed soldiers to capture. At level three, most conventional weapons are ineffective, and creatures of level ten can easily tear apart tank vehicles.
Not to mention the Troll King Kong acts as a whole clan, which makes the capture difficulty of the Rainbow Fruit area significantly increased, turning its surroundings into a red zone.
So, what about the area beyond it?
Due to Gong Qiying's benevolence, the creatures in the region behind the Rainbow Fruit mostly have capture levels starting at level twenty and mostly rely purely on combat power to reach level twenty rather than just capture difficulty.
This leap in combat power undoubtedly poses major obstacles for adventurers seeking exploration.
Moreover, many of these high-combat-power gourmet creatures often require special cooking methods to be edible, with some parts even being inedible.
Without substantial trial and error, adventurers won't know what's edible and what's not, making it difficult for gourmet chefs to make high-priced acquisitions. Plus, the exceedingly high difficulty of the area behind the Rainbow Fruit means achievements there don't lead to fame like they might in other zones, leaving the strategy group uninterested.
These conditions seem tailor-made for the Floating Island Dragon Clan.
They don't care about not being famous; they just want tasty treats. And a single dragon's combat power is quite formidable, making battles with the monsters beyond the Rainbow Fruit perfectly possible.
It's foreseeable that the future of the gourmet region will belong to the Floating Island Dragon Clan!
"What a surprisingly abundant harvest this time, I actually discovered the second piece of legendary cookware."
The next day, deep within the gourmet region, after defeating a series of power monsters whose capture levels were unknown, Nadi found a golden artifact in the cave they guarded.
[Dragon Turning Pot]
[One of the legendary cookware, specifically used for accelerated cooking, capable of instantly cooking any ingredient placed inside.]
[It's said that collecting all eight legendary cookware allows one to create dishes that grant immortality.]
"Just from the description, it seems rather ordinary," Nadi, having transformed into her dragon form, picked up the Dragon Turning Pot with her claws for closer inspection. Its appearance was that of a spiral-shaped dragon, quite unique in design.
