Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 135 "The Dark Continent on the Tip of the Tongue" (Part )
The "Dry Valley" 5 hours later.

"'Flesh-sucking red bug'?" Men Qi took out a recorder, put it to Buhala's mouth, and pressed the record button.

Buhala sat on the ground, picking his teeth with a toothpick as big as a stick while stroking his round belly.

"It feels OK. The bursting sensation may be uncomfortable at first, but after getting used to it, it feels like juicy fruit."

"Which level do you put it on, from A to E?" Men Qi asked. "It has to be authentic, but also has to take into account the level of acceptance by humans, which means it should be more popular."

"Hmm... C-grade, I guess." Buhala licked his lips. "The Gluttonous Stomach told me that it is very nutritious, but the taste is still a little too niche."

"Do you remember the 'sandworms' we ate before? They don't need to be cooked or seasoned, they are delicious just eaten directly. The 'flesh-sucking red bug' tastes slightly worse than it."

Menqi also tasted the cooked insect meat himself, nodded, and basically agreed with Buhala's statement.

“It’s not as good as “Sandworm”, but maybe it’s the cooking method and seasoning. There’s still room for improvement. I’ll try it again when I have the chance.”

She then asked: "What about the "Poison Mist Centipede"? "

"E grade." Buhala gave a decisive evaluation. "If you really have nothing to fill your stomach, I don't recommend eating this. It tastes dry, sour and astringent, and it's hard to swallow."

This time, Menqi didn't try it again: "Unexpectedly, I thought it would taste like shrimp and crab meat... Well, next one, "Wind Ripple Moth"."

"The main body is E-grade, and its eggs are C-grade. They are still edible after being cooked." Buhala thought for a moment and added, "But compared to the "Flesh-sucking Red Bug", its eggs are still a little inferior."

"Yeah." Men Qi nodded, "Next one, the Hammer Mushroom."

"This is B-grade." Buhala was still unsatisfied. "It tastes like tofu. With the right condiments, it will be a delicious dish. The most important thing is that it will make you feel full after eating it."

"Grade B..." After hearing this, Men Qi tasted the stewed "hammer mushroom" himself and nodded repeatedly in approval.

"This thing can become one of our dry food. Anyway, let's record it in the "recipe" first."

On the other side, Bisiji sat on the spread blanket, pretending not to hear the devilish conversation between Menqi and Buhala.

However, the corpses piled up behind them were not much different from the devil's abode, which was really unforgettable.

As for those that are inedible, Buhara, who possesses a "gluttonous stomach", can directly vomit them out without affecting his body.

In front of her was a pot that Buhara had carried over. There was firewood burning under the pot, and a delicious dish was being stewed.

Hearing the sound of boiling water, German came over and opened the lid of the pot. Steam immediately overflowed, revealing several eggs as big as ostrich eggs.

Not all creatures in the "Dark Continent" are unfamiliar. For example, the eggs in front of you come from the "Grape Spider" that Menqi and Buhala are very familiar with.

However, the "grape spiders" here are obviously larger, so their eggs are also relatively larger.

The "Wind Wave Moth" and "Grape Spider" both live on a nearby cliff.

The eggs of the "Grape Spider" are on the spider web above the cliff, while the eggs of the "Wind Wave Moth" are in the cave on the cliff below. The two sides do not interfere with each other.

Not long ago, German discovered these eggs, so he took a few back and killed a huge "grape spider", which he also brought back. As a result, he was highly praised by Menqi and Buhala.

After some observation, the two "gourmet hunters" agreed that this was not the "Grape Spider" of the Six Continents, but a close relative of the "Grape Spider", but for now they would call it the "Grape Spider".

At this moment, German directly reached out and grabbed a still hot "boiled grape spider egg", and handed it to Biscuit with both hands. Because there was air "wrapped" on his hands, he didn't feel the heat.

"Biscuit, have one. You haven't eaten well today." "Thank you."

Biscuit took it with both hands, then cracked the eggshell to reveal the smooth egg white. She was a little hungry, so she began to eat the "grape spider eggs" in small bites.

Biscuit had eaten "grape spider eggs" before, so she was quite accepting of the "closely related grape spider eggs" in front of her. So she tasted it carefully and immediately showed a satisfied expression.

"That's it... a familiar taste, delicious. They are indeed close relatives, the egg white and yolk are equally delicious after being cooked."

Are we judging the similarity of species by the tip of our tongue?

Seeing that she didn't look fake while eating, German took a "grape spider egg" out of the pot, cracked the eggshell, took off the bird's beak mask, and started eating.

Then, the taste was different from that of ordinary boiled eggs, which immediately made him come to the same conclusion as biscuits.

It is indeed a delicacy. No wonder the "Grape Spider Eggs" in the Six Continents can be sold at a high price. The "Relative Grape Spider Eggs" here are even larger in quantity and more filling.

He ate the egg white and yolk calmly and gently, and then he saw Biscuit stop eating and stare at him with narrowed eyes, with a dangerous look in his eyes.

"what happened?"

"Hey, Germain, did you wait until I tried the 'Grape Spider Eggs' before deciding to have a bite? I was just wondering why you suddenly became a gentleman..."

German didn't answer Biscuit's words and continued to eat the "grape spider eggs" by himself.

Biscuit was about to chase after him when Menqi interrupted.

"I'm telling you, the 'Windwave Moth Egg' is a C-grade, which is actually only one level lower than the B-grade 'Grape Spider Egg'. Do you want to try it? They're all eggs anyway."

Biscuit declined the offer and waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, I'm full after eating two "grape spider eggs". Germain, I see you have a good appetite, why don't you try a few bites?"

I thought that after I diverted the blame, Germain would refuse and be secretly proud of it, but I didn't expect that Germain nodded after eating the "grape spider egg".

"Let me try it."

German stood up and walked towards Menqi and Buhala in front of Bisiji's stunned eyes.

Afterwards, Biscuit saw with his own eyes that he actually tasted the cooked "Wind Wave Moth Eggs".

"How is it?" Menqi handed the recorder to Germain's mouth, "I also want to hear the opinions of ordinary people who are not gourmets."

"Indeed, they are OK," said German calmly, "As long as we don't know where they come from, it should be OK to put them on the shelf as food."

"I see." Men Qi touched her chin and nodded secretly. She picked up the "Grape Spider Eyeball" again and said, "You've eaten their eggs. Now try the eyeball."

German held the eyeball and frowned a little uncomfortably, but finally decided to take a bite.

One bite and the juice overflows.

"It doesn't taste good." German spat it out, took the water handed to him by Buhala, and began to rinse his mouth.

Men Qi nodded again: "I see."

Biscuit looked at the three people sitting there with horror, always having a feeling that "I am often out of tune with you because I am not perverted enough."
