My system comes with a chat group?

Eriri was also a staunch supporter of this operation, so she stepped out to clean the ground with magic. Shu stood in front of her and used his shield to block the arrows shot by the goblins. In a few breaths, a magic circle appeared behind Eriri.

"Boom!" Although not as strong as the magic released by Yakumo, the magic with a bonus on physical destruction pierced through the goblins on the shore without mercy.

The benefits brought by the water element drink she drank also made Yinglili feel the changes in herself. Proper exercise was just the right way to use and digest this magic power and then strengthen herself.

"Boom boom boom!" After firing the cannon, Eriri did not stop. Perhaps she learned this from Yakumo. She had always wanted to use this magic cannon to clean the ground. However, the place where she lived was not suitable for her to do so.

And

Moreover, her magic power is not enough to support her using magic cannons to decimate stronger opponents. In addition, Eriri is not actually good at fighting. In a real battle, she will probably be killed by the opponent before she can even decimate the opponent.

Now that she has this opportunity, she can finally realize her wish.

"Ha ha ha ha, so this is what the magic cannon bombardment feels like. It feels so good! Now I'm already having fun to the limit!" Eriri continued bombarding while laughing weirdly.

"It's over, Eriri is completely ruined." Funina covered her face.

"Yeah, Eriri looks like a villain at this moment." Yakumo crossed his arms over his chest. "If I accidentally kill Eriri in the future, it will be no problem to just change into the boss's clothes."

"Hey! I'm listening!" Eriri quickly put away her smile. If she continued like this, she didn't know how Yakumo would frame her. Even if they were all acquaintances, she had to pay more attention to her image!

"Okay, meow, there are not many survivors left, we can stop the bombing." There are only a few living goblins on the shore, and if they continue bombing, there will be no place to stand when they get on the shore.

Magical bombing is different from artillery bombing. There is no heat after artillery bombing, but the damage caused is similar. General attack magic can also cause damage to the terrain. Eriri does not have the magic control ability of Yakumo.

"Hoo-ha-ha!" The group stepped onto the land and were about to explore the surrounding environment. A goblin who was lucky enough not to be injured suddenly jumped out from his hiding place, waving the stick in his hand and preparing to attack everyone.

Unfortunately, the goblin's actions had no effect. The moment it jumped out, Shu's hook claw had already made a move, pulling the goblin, then stabbed it in front of the gunpowder, and fired a cannonball at its face.

"Bang!" The goblin rolled his eyes and fell down. Yakumo went up and stabbed him again, confirming that the goblin was really dead.

"Xiao Yakumo seems to have always been wary of the goblin race?" Shu was a little surprised: "After landing on land, Xiao Yakumo has also been trying to confirm whether the goblin is really dead."

"Well..." Yakumo thought for a moment, "Because the goblins are a very cunning race. Although they have low abilities, they are very good at using all kinds of despicable methods to defeat their opponents and capture them."

"Sneak attacks are commonplace for him. He is also very good at pretending to be dead or pitiful to gain sympathy. Once your defenses are down, he will swallow you up without hesitation."

"I will never let this race go easy." Yakumo stabbed another goblin who was pretending to be dead to death. It turned out that what Yakumo said was right. There were still many goblins hiding and preparing to attack the team members.

"Sister Shu, look here, these bones should not be fake." After cleaning up all the goblins, everyone found many bones in the goblin's nest, all of which were human bones.

"It seems that we are not the only team that has discovered this place. It is true that there are not many people. Although it is a large lake, what if there is land above it and we can go around it."

“Plus, there’s such a conspicuous treasure chest here, so it’s natural that adventurers who come by would be tempted, meow.” Yakumo looked at the treasure chest again at this time and suddenly understood.

Maybe the treasure chest is one of the means used by the goblins to attract adventurers, and then kill them all as food when the adventurers are relaxed.

Although the location of the treasure chest just now seemed hidden, Eriri found it at a glance with Yakumo's reminder, which means that the treasure chest was obviously carefully arranged.

In other words, it is most likely one of the goblin’s traps!

Chapter 39: All Calculations

"You're exaggerating, aren't you?" Eriri didn't quite believe what Yakumo said: "Goblins are the lowest level monsters in the game, only slightly higher than slimes."

"Goblins love adventurers like you who don't take things seriously." Yakumo spread his hands and threw a stone at the treasure chest: "You've played a lot of games, so why haven't you learned your lesson yet?"

"Who, who played a lot of porn games! I was just learning! Learning!!" Ying Lili quickly distanced herself from the matter: "I learned other people's CG technology and various execution plans. Otherwise, how could our games sell so well?"

"Yeah, yes, yes, what you said is absolutely correct. So you were so busy studying the postures, meow, that you forgot how the defeat CG was played, right?" Yakumo's stone hit the treasure chest, but there was no response.

"Look, I said..." Before Ying Lili could feel proud for two seconds, the treasure chest suddenly trembled: "No, it can't be..."

"I'm sorry, meow, but that's true, meow." Yakumo pulled out the double swords behind him: "It looks like it's really a treasure chest monster. Even if the goblins run away, after the treasure chest monster kills people, the goblins will come out and take the corpses as food."

The treasure chest monster is actually not difficult to deal with, just turn it over and tap the bottom to make it faint. So even if all the goblins run away, it will not affect coming back to receive the fruits of victory later.

"Also, you can see there are many caves nearby. There is no doubt that they are the goblins' nests. There may be more traps waiting for adventurers inside."

Yakumo pointed to the cave entrance nearby and said, "For adventurers, the cave is a place of great beauty.

This means there is a high probability of treasure. As long as there is no escape route, once the goblins block the entrance, the adventurers inside will basically be trapped to death."

"Goblins are so smart?!" Finina exclaimed in disbelief. Is this considered a certain application of military tactics?

"That's why goblins are so cunning, meow. These are mostly the most effective methods that goblins have tried out in various battles. After all, the biggest advantage of the goblin race is that they reproduce quickly, meow."

"As long as one goblin stays behind, he can pass on this experience, and then the subsequent goblins will probably learn it all. It's passed down from generation to generation, and it's all experience."

"Hiss..." Hiiragi Wutina couldn't help but take a breath: "Is it really that powerful?"

"It's really that powerful, meow." Yakumo looked inside the cave, then immediately retracted his head: "No need to go in, meow, it's all bones, meow."

"No... treasure chest?" Ying Lili asked cautiously.

"No, meow, there's nothing but leftover bones, meow." Yakumo shook his head: "And it stinks in there, let's just look outside to see if there's anything, meow." Yakumo pounded the entrance of the cave, preparing to collapse it.

"Inside... Never mind, it's nothing." Shu had knocked the treasure chest monster unconscious, and now it was lying upside down on the ground, no longer struggling. Seeing Yakumo's performance, Shu had a rough guess about what was in the cave.

The pile of bones mentioned by Yakumo is probably correct, but it is more likely that they are scattered everywhere. In addition, Yakumo is probably sure that the souls of the dead have already left, otherwise Yakumo will definitely help to revive them.

"It's hopeless, meow." Yakumo sighed and threw all the goblins he had cleared from the ground into the lake. These people gave birth to me, so I'll just ignore them. Then in the goblin camp, Yakumo found some cabbages and other things.

"They are all vegetables." Finina also held a cabbage in her arms: "Why do goblins look like they are vegetarians?"

"Haha, don't worry. Even if the maze is destroyed, goblins still eat meat." Yakumo laughed and gathered the ingredients together: "Well, the only ingredients we have now are these vegetables, the remaining fish, and the treasure chest monster."

"Well, I really have to go down and catch something more." Yakumo touched his chin. He didn't dare to eat the meat in the goblin camp, but the remaining fish didn't seem to be enough.

"Sister Shu, please help me wash the rice. I'm going to go take a look in the lake." After saying this, Yakumo asked Eriri to help him cast a magic that did not require breathing, and then he dived into the lake in a mask.

There were only some small fish near the shore, and Yakumo didn't touch them. Swimming deeper into the lake, Yakumo saw a few fish suitable for food, and quickly killed them and fished them up.

When Yakumo returned to the lake, Shu had already washed the rice and prepared water: "Little Yakumo, what shall we eat tonight?"

"Let's have porridge hotpot this time." Yakumo took out a clay pot from the system backpack: "I bought it before, and now I can finally use it. Sister Shu, please help me beat some of the rice into rice paste, and I will cook the porridge directly later."

Pour rice, rice paste and water into the casserole, cover it and simmer until it boils like porridge. While waiting for the porridge to cook, Yakumo takes out a kitchen knife and deftly removes the scales and guts of the fish.

Then, slice the fish into 1-2 mm thick slices and place them on a plate. Then, pull the treasure chest monster out of the box, chop off the crab claws and legs, and remove the digestive organs.

"I'm not sure if this treasure chest monster has eaten any poisonous substances, so the part connected to the digestive organs will be discarded. The rest will be put aside for future use, meow." Yakumo said, his hands moving without slowing down at all.

"Yakumo's skills in preparing ingredients are becoming more and more proficient." Seeing Yakumo's movements, Shu felt a little ashamed: "He has completely surpassed me."

"After all, with the bonus of the cat rice system, meow, this system has given me a lot of help in processing ingredients, meow. And then just practice and learn more, and you will naturally improve, meow." Yakumo dealt with the treasure chest monster.

"It really does look like a big crab." Hiiragi Wutina curiously picked up a crab claw that was as long as her forearm. "Even if it's a king crab, it can't be this big, right?"

"Yes, meow. So I need to remove the crab claws and legs again later, meow, otherwise they won't fit in the casserole. Although I have already made the biggest casserole, meow."

Yakumo also felt a little regretful about this: "In fact, everyone can make their own porridge in a small pot, but many of the ingredients in the maze are huge in size, and a small pot can't cook them all, meow."

“Kun is so big, it can’t be cooked in one pot?” Ying Lili burst out laughing.

"This is far inferior to Kun, meow." Yakumo shook his head: "The fish and crab are already prepared, and the remaining dried meat is also ready. Finally, we just need to deal with the vegetables, meow."

Chapter 40 Porridge Hotpot

"Looks like the porridge is ready, meow." Yakumo placed plates of various ingredients around the casserole and opened the lid. The porridge inside was already bubbling.

He used the limited amount of seasonings he had on hand to make a few dishes and distributed them to everyone: "It's a pity that this time it's still not enough, meow, otherwise this meal would be even better. When we go back and have enough ingredients, we can eat again."

"In this environment, our meal is already something most adventurers would envy.

You must be jealous." Fu Nina took the porridge from Yakumo and said, "Eh? Do you want to drink the porridge first?"

"Although there is no clear requirement, most people drink a bowl of porridge first to taste it, which is said to protect the stomach. This bowl of porridge has not been infected by any flavor and has the original taste of porridge."

Yakumo served everyone a bowl and said, "After you finish drinking, you can order seafood according to your preferences. Although we only have a few kinds of fish and treasure chest monsters here, it can't be considered seafood."

"Eh? Can't we put the meat in first?" Hiiragi Wutina stopped with the chopsticks she had stretched out.

"Usually, seafood doesn't have a strong flavor after being processed, so blanching it will have little effect on the flavor of the porridge. The freshness of the seafood can also enhance the deliciousness of the pot, and then add the meat."

“Hiss, I clearly told you not to be dogmatic, why are you still being so rigid…” Yakumo tapped his forehead: “It’s okay, meow, just cook whatever you want, meow, they are all processed ingredients.”

“These ingredients don’t have any other seasonings added to them, and they won’t make the porridge look weird, so just eat it as it is.” Yakumo set an example and threw a piece of dried meat into the pot.

"That's exactly what it should be." Shu also put some fish fillets and vegetables in. Fish fillets cook much faster than meat jerky, and can be taken out in about ten seconds.

Yakumo's fish slices are cut thinner, making them easier to cook. With the simple but rich dipping sauce, everyone enjoyed the smooth and comfortable eating. Soon, a large plate of fish slices was finished.

"Are there really so many ways to cook food?!" Furninha almost cried while eating. Although she knew that Liyue also had many delicious recipes, and there were some similarities between Liyue and Yakumo's former country, Liyue cuisine was still just a drop in the bucket.

"If I move all the dishes here, I can probably eat them for a year without repeating the same thing, meow. Maybe even more than a year, meow." Yakumo licked his chopsticks and said, "Actually, there are many dishes that I can't cook. I learned a lot of them on the spot, meow."

"The crab legs are cooked, let's eat them!" Yakumo took a crab leg out of the pot and put it in Funina's bowl: "There are no crab meatballs, so you can only eat them by yourselves, hehe."

Yakumo himself bit the shell of the crab leg with a snapping sound. His bite force seemed to have become very good. He removed the shell that had been bitten off on one side of the crab leg and picked out the crab meat inside with chopsticks.

The cooked crab meat is crystal white and tender, and you can feel the strands of it after tearing it off. Just dip it in the dipping sauce and put it in your mouth, and you can feel the delicious taste of the crab legs blooming on your taste buds.

"Hoo, hoo, hoo... It's so hot, meow, I forgot I'm a cat's tongue again meow!" Yakumo was so burned that he stuck out his tongue. This is the bad thing about Fey Cat, a cat's tongue can't eat anything that's too hot.

"I've already opened this one. Little Yakumo, have this one. Give me this crab leg." Shu pushed the crab leg she had already opened to Yakumo, and then took the half-opened crab leg from Yakumo's hand.

"When I went fishing for big scale fish before, I would occasionally catch crabs. So, I am very good at removing crabs." Shu smiled at Yakumo: "Although Yakumo-chan is very skilled in cooking, you can tell from your actions that you don't eat crabs often."

"Indeed, I haven't eaten crabs much before." Yakumo accepted Shu's kindness with a wry smile: "Eating crabs is much harder than eating fish. If I were to disassemble the crabs myself, there might be a lot of crab meat left on them."

Yakumo was very straightforward and worried that he really couldn't eat crabs: "To be honest, I always thought that there was really crab meat in the crab sticks, but later I found out that it was actually pasta-nyan..."

The crab sticks we often eat as hot pot ingredients are actually made of fish paste, soy protein, starch and other materials, and can indeed be considered as pasta. Although Yakumo doesn't know why it must be called crab sticks.

"I feel... burp, I'm full..." Hiiragi Wutina burped. She had the smallest appetite among the group. She had already drunk a bowl of porridge when she started eating, and just now she ate a lot of fish and a whole crab claw, so her stomach was a little full.

"Then just eat some leafy vegetables at the end, meow, and walk around a bit. If you feel there's still room in your stomach, you can have another bowl of porridge, meow." Yakumo suggested.

"No, no, I won't eat later." Hiiragi Tina shook her head frantically, and then pinched the flesh on her belly. I always felt like I had gained some weight, and the clothes after the transformation seemed to be a lot tighter...

"It must be because I haven't been exercising much recently!" Hiiragi Mutina would never say that it was because she had eaten too much recently!

It’s just… since coming to this world, the meals Yakumo cooks have always been large in portion and filling, and they’re so delicious that you can’t even put your chopsticks down!

"Huh... I'm full too." Funina put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth elegantly: "It's a very good way to eat. By the way, you said that when we go back, I will ask Villette to eat hot pot. What expression will Villette have when facing the hot pot base?"

"According to the nine-square grid you mentioned, Yakumo, will he try each one? His expression was so interesting when we were eating hot pot before." Funina looked eager to try.

"Just spare Villette. You don't really want Villette to drink the hot pot base..." Yakumo covered his face. He felt that Funina was becoming more and more eccentric, and some weird hobbies emerged one after another.

"I, I don't want to see Villette drinking hot pot base! Look, porridge hot pot is also OK, and the coconut chicken soup you mentioned before is also OK.

Yes! "

“……”Don’t learn this kind of thing so quickly, Fu Fu!

"I'm done eating too." Shu and Eriri put down their bowls and chopsticks one after another, and Yakumo also took a few quick bites to end the battle.

"What a shame. We went through so much trouble but didn't get much." Ying Lili searched again in disbelief, and indeed there were no other boxes.

"Ah, I was mentally prepared when I saw it was the goblin camp." Yakumo sighed: "Nine out of ten things in life are not as expected, and I'm used to it. Adventures don't always come... What's going on?!"

Yakumo, who was cleaning up the dishes, suddenly felt a tremor under his feet, and it was a very strange tremor.

Chapter 41: Collapse of the Maze

"I don't know if it's my illusion... the maze seems to have collapsed!" Hiiragi Wutina pointed to the land on the other side: "Over there! Is there an earthquake in the maze too?!"

"How is this possible! If there was an earthquake in the maze, it would have collapsed long ago! Could it be that the maze is causing trouble, or is that demon preparing to harvest?! No, we have to get out quickly, meow!"

Yakumo had never expected that he and his companions would encounter such a fatal situation after only being in the maze for a few days. Generally speaking, the maze is very stable in the early stages, and adventurers enter, explore, and explore the maze.

However, as the number of adventurers increases, the desires of various adventurers will gradually fill the maze, allowing the demons who created these mazes to feel it, and begin to absorb the various desires of the maze to "feed themselves".

As desires grow, the maze will become richer and richer, until at a certain end, desires finally change the entire maze. It may be that the maze cannot continue, or it may suddenly explode!

The maze here is probably the result of a sudden outbreak, and maybe something like the monster rushing out of the maze in the main story will happen. And in this situation, it is very likely that something bad will happen in the maze!

"Retreat first, meow! Everyone, take this and smash it on the ground, meow!" Yakumo took out a small ball and handed it to everyone: "If it can really be replicated, then it will definitely work, meow!"

When Shu saw it, she knew what it was. The game system gave her this knowledge, and she smashed the ball to the ground and whistled in a puff of smoke.

Then a pterosaur flew out from nowhere and was grabbed by the foot, and disappeared in mid-air with Shu.

"This is... the Homecoming Jade?" Ying Lili understood instantly: "So this thing can actually be made?"

As she said that, Eriri also threw the ball to the ground. Obviously, this is completely possible. If the Home Jade doesn't work, you have to use the City Return Scroll. In the face of this potentially big/troublesome situation, saving your life is the first priority.

But fortunately, the return jade worked, and everyone returned to the camp before entering the maze. The return jade in the Monster Hunter game will force players to return to the camp before the battle. This camp must have the function of rest and supply.

Yakumo and his crew just camped and rested for one night under the maze, but that didn't count. After returning to the camp, the maze continued to vibrate, and it was obvious that the vibration was not just a problem on Yakumo's level.
