Chapter 118
In the open space northeast of Bailu Town, there are ten large baking ovens, like ten bunkers.
Another twenty large baking ovens are under construction.
Cheng Yu turned into a liver emperor, baking bread crazily every day. More than a hundred members of the Shadow Club were responsible for distributing bread. While making money, they also gained positive emotion points, which were exchanged for strength and defense attributes.
Time passed day by day.
Cheng Yu's strength and defense attributes increased from more than 3500 to more than 3600, and then from more than 3600 to more than 3700, more than 3800, more than 3900, more than 4000...
...
After lunch that day.
Cheng Yu sat under the tree in the manor garden drinking tea, and the sun shone through the leaves and scattered on the stone table.
Mina sat next to Cheng Yu, and his big hand stroked Mina's snow-white furry tail, which felt very good.
Check your own attribute panel.
Host: Cheng Yu
Cooking skill level: max level
Strength: 4290
Defense: 4290
Skills: Silver Moon Shockwave, Magic Mastery (Passive)
Equipment: Dragon Patterned Golden Knife, Shadow Hammer
The Shadow Hammer was the equipment that exploded after killing Jeff last time.
However, as a chef, Cheng Yu didn't have much use for the Shadow Hammer, except for making glutinous rice cakes occasionally.
"Excuse me, is this Mr. Cheng Yu's home?"
Four boys and girls stood at the entrance of the manor, one of the young men stretched his neck and looked into the manor.
"I am Cheng Yu, what do you want from me?"
Cheng Yu looked at the entrance of the manor and didn't recognize these people.
"Hello, Mr. Cheng Yu, we are a team of adventurers from the capital, and we have accepted a commission to give you something." The young man said politely.
Cheng Yu could probably guess what it was, and said to Mina beside him, "Mina, go to the door to pick up the express."
"Express?"
Mina often heard some inexplicable words from Cheng Yu.
"It's the thing at the door." Cheng Yu explained.
"Oh."
Mina stood up and walked to the entrance of the manor.
The four adventurers handed a wooden box to Mina and left.
Mina returned to Cheng Yu with the wooden box and placed it on the stone table.
"Cheng Yu, do you want to open it?"
Mina wagged her tail and stared at the wooden box, curious about what was in it.
"Open it."
Mina opened the wooden box, and inside was a yellowed kraft paper with patterns of mountains, rivers and lakes depicted on it.
"Oh, is this a treasure map?"
Mina's eyes were filled with surprise.
This piece of kraft paper fits her imagination of the mysterious treasure map.
"Yeah."
Cheng Yu nodded slightly.
This treasure map was the reward from the Holy See of Light after he killed the shadow killer Jeff.
"Let's go treasure hunting. I'll be responsible for digging for treasure."
Mina was full of expectations. Digging holes was fun, but digging for treasure seemed more interesting.
"Let me see where the treasure is."
Mina handed the treasure map in her hand to Cheng Yu.
Look at this piece of kraft paper. The upper part is marked with the Black Sun Empire, and the lower part is marked with the White Star Empire. The treasure is located at the junction of the Black Sun Empire and the White Star Empire.
The three major human empires in the eastern part of the Celsis continent are the Black Sun Empire, the White Star Empire, and the Red Moon Empire from north to south.
The Black Sun Empire is adjacent to the northern Demon Realm, the White Star Empire is sandwiched between the Black Sun Empire and the Red Moon Empire, and the Red Moon Empire borders the Silver Moon Forest governed by the Orc Tribe in the south of the continent.
Bailu Town is located on the northern border of the Black Sun Empire. If you want to reach the treasure point, you must cross the entire Black Sun Empire, which is a long way to go.
Cheng Yu has been working hard to improve his combat power and has no time to go.
The front of the kraft paper contains a map, and the back contains a text that is twisted and distorted like an earthworm.
It is said that simplified Chinese and Chinese are the common languages of all planes, so why are there unfamiliar characters?
Cheng Yu could not understand the text and felt helpless.
At this time, Aphra walked out of the house, wearing a white dress, with slightly messy black hair, long straight white legs, slightly drooping eyelids, and laziness on her beautiful face.
Aphra's laziness is not the lazy laziness of a coquettish queen, but the laziness of a decadent otaku.
Standing at the door, she took a deep breath and smiled faintly, "Cheng Yu, go shopping with me."
"Shopping? Are you willing to go out?"
In the past ten days, Cheng Yu had only seen Aphra when he was eating. At other times, Aphra stayed in her room reading novels.
"I'm tired of reading novels about the demons. I want to see what interesting novels are available in human bookstores."
Cheng Yu remembered that there was a small bookstore in Bailu Town, but there weren't many books in it.
"By the way, take a look at this text. Do you recognize it?"
Cheng Yu showed Aphra the text on the back of the treasure map.
"Uh... I don't recognize it.. "
Afra frowned and shook her head.
I have never seen such crooked words.
"Okay."
Even Aphra, who has lived for hundreds of years, doesn't recognize it. It seems that this kind of words is really unconventional.
It's a pity that the bard Charles has gone somewhere, otherwise we can ask Charles.
Cheng Yu put away the treasure map and asked Mina, "Xiao Fu and I are going shopping together. Do you want to go with us?"
"Go, I love shopping the most."
Mina was very excited. She put her arms around Cheng Yu's neck from behind and stuck to Cheng Yu.
"Yivini, do you want to go shopping with us?"
Cheng Yu asked Yivini who was reading a book not far away.
"I want to learn magic, so I won't go."
The elves are indifferent. Yivini usually spends most of her time reading books, indulging in magic, unable to extricate herself, and not very interested in other things.
"Okay, let's go shopping. "
Cheng Yu took Aphra and Mina to Bailu Town for shopping.
Mina followed Cheng Yu, holding Cheng Yu's arm, clinging to him like a dog.
Today, the streets of Bailu Town were cleaned up and spotless. The old moss on the stone steps on both sides of the street was cleared away, and the homeless and mobile vendors disappeared, looking brand new.
Every ten meters on both sides of the street, there stood a guard holding a spear and wearing silver armor.
"Is it a festival today? Bailu Town is so clean?" Mina looked around curiously.
"It's not a festival, there can't be so many guards on a festival."
Cheng Yu stopped a passerby on the street, "Brother, why is Bailu Town so clean today? . "
"Haven't you heard?" the passerby asked back.
"What did you hear?"
"A big shot is coming to Bailu Town, and the officials arranged people to clean the town in advance."
"Okay, thank you. "
Cheng Yu recalled that when he was in school, the school asked teachers to organize students to clean up the classrooms and playgrounds in order to welcome the inspection of the leaders.
The thinking mode of officials of the Black Sun Empire is not much different from that of officials on Earth.
There were not many pedestrians on the street. The three of them walked along the street and went straight to the only bookstore in Bailu Town.
"Xiao Fu, choose any book you want to buy, and I will pay for it."
"Yes."
Afra walked to the novel area of the bookstore and chose from dozens of novels.
"Mina, do you want to buy a book?" Cheng Yu asked Mina.
"No, I get a headache when I see books. "
Mina smiled awkwardly.
If Ivennie is a quiet and quiet academic master, Mina is a simple-minded but strong academic scum. After learning human characters from Cheng Yu for a few months, she barely advanced from illiterate to semi-literate.
Cheng Yu also walked to the novel area of the bookstore to see if there were any books he wanted to buy.
On the bookshelf, a novel titled "Night Raid on Widow Village, Widows Praise Me for My Capability" caught Cheng Yu's attention.
Oh my god, this inconspicuous little bookstore in Bailu Town actually has such a magical book!
Cheng Yu grinned, his eyes curved into crescents, revealing a funny smile.
"Boss, how much is this book?"
Standing on tiptoe, Cheng Yu took the book "Night Raid on Widow Village, Widows Praise Me for My Capability" off the bookshelf.
"20 copper coins. "The boss said.
Cheng Yu chose the book "Night Raid on Widow Village, the Widows Praise My Capability".
Afra also chose two novels.
Cheng Yu paid together, and the three of them left the bookstore.
When they came to the street outside, a group of people were walking from the end of the street.
