Chapter 841 Melk: Where did you get your dragon tooth?

“It’s not worth anything.”

Lu Li explained, "Besides, I also have my own selfish motives."

As he spoke, he had already jumped onto the last peak with the shrimp. In front of them was a small stone house with Melk's name on it. This was the workplace of Melk, the legendary knife forger and knife sharpener known to every chef.

When she saw the sign, Xia Ren realized where this place was, and she also roughly guessed what Lu Li was going to give her.

"Could it be that Boss Lu wants to make a new kitchen knife for me?"

After saying this, Xia Ren felt a little regretful because she felt that she was really shameless.

I have already asked the other party to help protect me for free, but I still want to accept such an expensive gift. How can I do this?

But as a chef, she had little resistance to the temptation of excellent kitchen knives, so she asked subconsciously, unable to hide the desire in her heart.

Facing the hesitant and embarrassed Xia Ren, Lu Li was very straightforward, "That's it, because I saw you struggling when cooking some high-end ingredients. It would be troublesome if the kitchen knife is not sharp enough, and I also want to eat better food, so of course I have to make a better kitchen knife for you."

"Boss Lu...I..."

Tears welled up in Shrimp's eyes.

"What's wrong? Don't you want to change the kitchen knife?"

Lu Li was a little confused, not knowing what he had said wrong. He thought about it for a while and suddenly felt that he seemed to have done something wrong.

He slapped his head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't think I asked for your opinion. I forgot. You first-class chefs value your cooking partners very much. You should cherish the kitchen knife you are using. Just forget what I just said."

The reason why Lu Li said this was because he remembered that the chefs in the original work all took good care of their kitchen knives, and Xiaosong cried for a long time because his knife broke.

My suggestion just now was like saying that Xia Ren’s current kitchen knife was rubbish and I should replace it with a better one for her.

If someone said this about his prisoner demon, Lu Li felt that he might also be unhappy.

Xia Ren was stunned when she heard that. She really wanted to say that that was not what she meant. She was just a little touched. She didn’t expect that the boss introduced to her by Chu Chu was such a nice person.

Speaking of Chu Chu, she felt a little aggrieved again. Last time, she commissioned Chu Chu to help her make a new kitchen knife, but despite their many years of friendship, Chu Chu actually told her that she was busy.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been using the common ingredients bought in that space to process food.

Of course, she cherishes her sword very much, but not to the extent of wearing it throughout her life. After all, she is also a space person, and she knows that unless the equipment is growth equipment, it is inevitable to face the issue of replacement as personal strength grows.

The very realistic problem is that no matter how good your cooking skills are, if you don’t have good tools and your chef’s limited basic skills are not enough to cook some ingredients that are hard on the outside, it is impossible.

The day before yesterday, when she was helping Lu Li deal with a crab delicacy that had been captured at level 83, it was difficult to dismember it even if she used her knife to exert force on the weak joints.

She guessed that Boss Lu saw this and wanted to give her a new kitchen knife.

"However, I just said that I have selfish motives. I am not here just to give you a gift. I also want to sharpen my knife."

Lu Li spoke again at this time, changing the subject, as he didn't want to talk about the kitchen knife anymore.

After his Prisoner was inlaid with a new gem, its sharpness had reached the level it should have grown at, and it was already outstanding among the fairy-level equipment of the same level.

But Lu Li remembered that in this world, if one used a super whetstone material to sharpen a knife, the sharpness could be even higher.

After Xiaosong obtained the kitchen knife forged from the Dragon King's teeth, he could split the mountain with just a light swing. This was not only due to the power contained in the Dragon King's teeth itself, but also because the kitchen knife was extremely sharp, which was sharpened by the Melk star.

Although Lu Li's Prisoner Demon was also very sharp, it was not sharp enough for an ordinary person to split a mountain with just a casual swing of it, so he was very interested in the Melk Star.

Of course, he was also looking forward to the delicious powder ground from the Melk Star, that legendary seasoning.

"Lu...Boss Lu..."

At this time, Xia Ren spoke awkwardly, scolding himself for being shameless in his heart, while mustering up the courage to express his true meaning.

"Ah? What's wrong?"

Lu Li couldn't figure out what the girl was thinking, he just felt that this was much more difficult than fighting.

"I...I actually want a sharper knife, so that I can...I can cook more delicious dishes for you."

At the end of her speech, Xia Ren’s head was almost buried in her huge mountain range, and even the back of her ears was red.

"Haha, so that's how it is. I thought you didn't want it."

Lu Li smiled and said, "Let's go, first visit the Melk II here."

"Ok!"

Shrimp nodded excitedly, looking forward to the new kitchen knife he was about to get.

Of course, she didn't dare to hope to have a kitchen knife as amazing as Komatsu, the chosen one in the original book. She only hoped that Melk could help her make a kitchen knife of mythical level or above, so that she could cook a lot of ingredients with her skills.

"Who are you calling the second generation!?"

Just as Xia Ren nodded, a voice came from the side, with a hint of vigilance in the voice.

Shrimp turned around and saw that it was a pretty girl with a cross scar on her face. It was none other than the second generation of Melk.

The second generation Melk was looking at Lu Li warily at this time, because few people had seen Melk's true appearance. She had inherited the name of her master on her own initiative, but the other party just came up and said that he was looking for the second generation of Melk, which made her very confused.

"Miss Melk, please relax, we are not bad people."

Lu Li saw that the other party was very alert, holding a kitchen knife tightly in his hand, and seemed ready to attack at any time. On the rock pillar next to him, there was a vampire king kong trembling and looking at him in fear.

"That's what bad guys say."

Melk had switched to holding the knife with both hands. She saw the frightened look on the vampire's face. You know, animals have sharper perceptions than humans. She herself just thought that Lu Li was too ferocious, but the fact that the vampire had become like this was enough to show that Lu Li's horror was far beyond her imagination.

"Ms. Melk, we are not bad people. We are just visiting you and would like to trouble you to help make a kitchen knife."

At this time, Xia Ren spoke, instantly dispelling the tense atmosphere. The main reason was that she looked too harmless and spoke in a timid manner, which really did not make people feel that she was threatening.

Melk looked at Lu Li suspiciously after hearing this, "Is that so?"

"That's it."

Lu Li felt that low charisma was sometimes not a good thing. If Sosuke was here, Melk might have already started forging swords for them.

"How do you know I'm a second-generation?"

Melk looked at Lu Li in confusion.

"Because the legendary Melk is a fierce man over 250 cm tall with scars all over his body. I think even if the rumors are far from accurate, they shouldn't even get the gender wrong. So I guess you are his adopted daughter or apprentice?"

Lu Li smiled and said, "If I guessed wrong, I apologize for my previous remarks."

Melk was a little surprised when he heard this, but his expression also eased a lot, "You are right, I was picked up by my master..."

She brought Lu Li and Xia Ren into the house, briefly explained the situation, and said that it was impossible to forge swords for Lu Li and the others because her work was already scheduled for three years later.

Lu Li was familiar with the plot. Although she knew that the principle of first come first served was important, there was something more important to Melk, which was the news of her master's life or death.

He asked Xia Ren to negotiate. Her charm attribute was over 100 points. Although she was timid, it could make people lower their vigilance and it was easy for them to get close to Melkla.

Shrimp suggested that they would help Melk find a master and give her Melk's stars, and the priority was to help Shrimp forge a kitchen knife.

Melk obviously couldn't refuse this request, so he readily agreed.

By doing this, Lu Li and Xia Ren might be suspected of stealing the roles from the main characters, but he doesn't have to worry about A Lu and Xiao Song running into a wall. Those two have incredible luck with food, so they will be able to make it in any case.

In order to get the sharper demon prisoner, delicious seasonings, and Shrimp's new kitchen knife, Lu Li would never miss the knifesmith Melk.

To use the words of Melk in the original book, his adopted daughter and apprentice is a true genius who has already caught up with him, but she just lacks confidence, so he can rest assured and leave the forging of the sword to her.

"As for the materials for forging the sword, I'd better show it to Miss Melk first."

It would be easy for Lu Li to find the first generation Melk, so he planned to talk about forging the sword first, and he would let Xia Ren, the knife user, add the details.

Melk originally wanted to ask Lu Li to find her master and Melk Star first, but when she saw the materials Lu Li took out, she was shocked, "The teeth of the Dragon King Diluos!?"

Instinctively, she wanted to go to her master's secret warehouse to confirm whether her master's collection had been stolen by the man in front of her.

But when she calmed down a little and looked carefully, she found that the tooth was still covered in blood and was very "fresh". It was definitely not the tooth that her master had dug out from an ancient fossil.

This discovery made her extremely horrified. She looked at Lu Li as if he were a monster. "Where did you get this thing?"

Although she was concentrating on forging swords, she was not completely unfocused on world news. Just two days ago, she seemed to have heard that there was a big turmoil in the food world, and many beasts fled to the human world, making the gatekeepers of the IGO feel very stressed.

However, the panic was only short-lived, and ultimately there was no invasion of wild beasts in the food world, which made many people breathe a sigh of relief. However, to this day, no media has reported the specific reasons why the food world was in chaos.

But now, looking at the tooth of the Dragon King Diluos, she suddenly guessed something. Perhaps something had happened to one of the eight top overlords in the gourmet world.

Could it be that... this was also done by the man in front of me?

"This... this storm in the food world, could it be because you attacked and killed the Dragon King?"

Melk's voice trembled a little as she spoke, for she could still feel the murderous aura lingering on the tooth. It had not been long since the Dragon King's death, and the murderous intent lingered for a long time.

"Oh, you mean the Dragon King? I didn't kill it."

Lu Li explained casually, his tone calm.

Melk looked at Lu Li's eyes and tone and felt that Lu Li did not seem to be lying, which made her feel a little relieved. At least she knew that the man sitting in front of her was not a legendary monster of the Eight Kings level.

"Brother Lu... Brother Lu, are you going to use this thing to forge a sword for me?!"

The shrimp's nerve reactions are always a beat slow. After seeing the teeth of the Dragon King Dilorius, he opened his mouth in shock and took a long time to speak.

She was shocked on many levels. First of all, she had no idea when Lu Li had hunted and killed the Dragon King. After all, the Dragon King only grew one tooth in his life, and now it was lying here bloody, so it was obvious that the Dragon King's body could not be safe.

Secondly, she was shocked that Lu Li actually used such top-notch materials to forge a sword for her. You know, this dragon tooth, as a forging material, is a super material with a full score of the fairy level.

And because it is a biological material, it is extremely easy to breed sword spirits, and it is easiest to produce top-quality equipment when forging.

If she brought it back to the space to sell, this dragon tooth, as the core material of the main weapon, could be sold at a sky-high price that she could not even imagine.

But Lu Li actually planned to use this fresh dragon tooth to make a new kitchen knife for her! ?
"Not at all."

Lu Li shook his head.

Lu Li's words made Xia Ren feel relieved. She thought that Lu Li might want to use some of the scraps of the dragon tooth to make material for casting the blade for her. She couldn't say she was disappointed because she felt that the dragon tooth was too precious. If Lu Li really used it all to make a kitchen knife for her, she would probably feel uneasy and wouldn't be able to sleep well at night.

But Lu Li's next actions and words made Xia Ren and Melk widen their eyes again, because Lu Li took out another sphere surrounded by light, which emitted circulating fluctuating energy, and the red light also rose and fell.

"This... this couldn't be..."

Melk's voice trembled and he looked at Lu Li as if he were a monster.

"The heart of the Dragon King, where the essence of its power lies."

Lu Li gave a brief introduction.

Melk felt like her worldview had collapsed. Her master was an old and powerful man from the same era as Yilong, so she knew some things about the food world.

Because of this, she knew how terrifying the Dragon King, one of the Eight Kings, was, and such a being had now been hunted down, with its dragon fangs and dragon heart placed before her.

If before she could still think that Lu Li was lucky enough to pick up the teeth left by the Dragon King after the war in the food world, now she felt that the possibility was basically zero, because the person who actually killed the Dragon King or the other eight kings would not leave the Dragon King's heart uneaten.
