Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

Episode 286 "Poisonous Dumplings"

Looking at the yellow floating waves, sharpen and clarify your mind in a vague thought.

The other inhabitants patiently wait for the other inhabitants to approach slowly as they reach into the other world spread out over the sea.

They are cowardly.

But also curious.

Slowly and carefully, but steadily, they approach a foreign object that appears suddenly.

If it is releasing the smell that invites their appetite, it is even more intriguing, and their vigilance fades.

And then, finally, without reason as much as the shards, he eats them in a state of distraction and desire.

"Whoa! I caught it. I caught it.It feels good. "

Lift the rod and grab the silver fish hanging at the end of the line.

The wharf in the Wadatsumi Port District is also a point where you can enjoy fishing in the sea without leaving the ship, and there are many fishermen around.

Even in such a rival place, my fishing rod was running smoothly with beautiful streamlined fish.

What are you doing, Mr. Reggie?

As I quickly dismantled the silverfish on the ground, Letty and the walnuts looked down at me with a boring face.

"Hmm. How can buying food and enjoying fishing in a fishing gear store in a commercial district help me carry out my mission?"

Wadatsumi said the same thing, can you explain it to me?

I nodded, too, when I was forced by a slurpy letty.

"Okay, okay.

- Okay, that's right.Letty, what if a mouse comes out of my house?

Eh? I'll slap you.

"... uh"

Expected diagonal answers arrive and they are unexpectedly poor in words.

I mean, is she always like that?

"Oh, don't get me wrong.I will not leak the contents.With exquisite force enough to prune your consciousness into a good feeling... "

"No, it's fine. I'm sorry about that.It's nothing. "

She explains further in haste, but perhaps not in essence.

Anyway, continue to explain by blocking Letty's words.

"Little (...) ku (...) and (...), I mostly deal with rats and grub killers at my place."

Sassozai?

"Well, you don't even know it exists...It's a drug that kills rats like that. "

"Ahhh! Isn't that a chow killer?!

…… It's called a sassy. You should remember that. "

I wonder why.

I can't move on as I thought.

"Let's get back to it.In the meantime, if a mouse comes out, set a trap. "

"Trap... I see, is that so?"

I'm glad you finally convinced me.

"But what does that have to do with fishing?

"I'm going to make a grub killer this time, but I think it would be better to use the ingredients for what they're going to eat?Wet rat staples are like fish. "

It is completely wiki information, but collective knowledge should be used effectively.

Wet mice (sea rats) are more miscellaneous than carnivores and seem to prefer marine organisms such as fish and shellfish from their habitat.

Hmm. So you're making fish dumplings?

The light bulb was lit up above her head, and she said, "I can't believe it.

"That's what it is. The rat hunter has blacksmith skills, but the poison dumplings can make my cooking skills."

It's not just a skill to make simple retort foods in tents.

"Anyway, there's plenty of ingredients. Let's change the location."

I'm leaving the wharf and I'm taking the two of you to Wadatsumi's production square.

The production square is the name of the facility included in the baseline, and is an open-air square with primary production facilities that can be used by runaway producers.

"Well, the ingredients are poison ampoules, fish meat and smellless herbs...."

I quickly head to the cooking table equipped with the cutting board and stove necessary for my cooking skills and take out the ingredients written on the wiki recipe.

Poison Ample is a production item created with the Formula skill, but it is often used by players with the Throw and Trap skills to easily poison powerful protozoa and reduce their health.

Since demand is stable, it is sold by pharmacists in most township markets, making it easy to match prices.

Oh, you can make it right.

Place all items on the pantry and make sure the window is out safely for a moment.

Once you meet the right skill level, place the ingredients on the pantry, and the production start window appears, you can start working.

"First, I'm going to beat the fish to pieces."

The silver scales arranged on the cutting board were crushed with a knife without even removing the scales.

Timely tap to match the rhythm displayed in the window until the original shape is minced.

"I wonder if this is cooking..."

"Hmm. Cooking is defined as making food with your hands on ingredients, so it's okay."

"If you eat that food, you'll die."

Letty and Wadatsumi are talking about something in the back, but I can't afford to say that this is a close request level.

"Next, I'm going to knead the poison ampoule into the mince...."

Open the cap of the ampoule and sprinkle the thick, thick purple liquid onto the mince.

The poison I prepared this time is a slightly finer Deadly Poison Ample.

"Letty, I don't want to use that slab anymore...."

Yes? Once the production action is over, the equipment will be perfectly cleaned.

"That's not the problem."

When the white fish mince color turns purple, add the herbs you provided.

This is to remove the smell of poison and camouflage it.

If you add herbs and tap on the tongue even more, the water will fly and harden.

When you get there, take your hands off the knife and round it small with your palm.

Phew. You managed to finish it. "

It looks completely poisonous dough.

What we created was an item called Fish Meat Poison Dumplings.

This toon has a buff that increases the natural healing speed of LP slightly for 30 seconds when eaten and a debuff that drastically reduces LP for 30 minutes.

Debuffs are more effective, so Buffs are almost meaningless.

It's a purple dumpling that's all black and visually unappealing.

Well then, is this dumpling all you need to do is scatter it in the tunnel?It's easy. "

"No, it doesn't work.One dumpling is too lethal to die instantly. "

"... eh?

I'm not going away from the cooking table, I'm going to take the material out of the inventory.

The scales of the phantom butterfly living in the Deep Forest of the Pluto Butterfly, the numb grass roots collected in the Wilderness of the Rock Lizard, and several other materials are examined and kneaded into the dumplings.

Naturally, as the size of dumplings grows, one is divided into about ten pieces, and it is easy to eat even in mice, but the size is adjusted to achieve sufficient effect.

"Is that really cooking?< Dispensing > It's not about skills.... "

"No Problem. Because it uses a knife, cutting board, and pot, it is within the scope of application.In the case of Ledge, it seems to have been corrected with Trap and Housekeeping skills. "

Coat the dumplings with neurotoxins, hallucinogens, and odor-proof leak-proof sweet algae in a thick, simmered liquid.

That's how I made my poison dumplings.

"Okay, well made.Let's get back to the tunnel!

Once successfully manufactured, it is possible to produce large quantities of products that will fall somewhat in quality in the future.

Looking back in sufficient quantities, there was a faint expression of lettuce.

Under her feet is the white moon with a calm face.

"What's going on?

"... no, it's nothing.Letty, I may not be able to eat fish dumplings for a while. "

I don't know, but it's okay.

I'll take Letty and the walnuts back to the door leading to the underground tunnel.

"Oh, the door is fixed, right?

Off-course, since the damaged walnuts will be repaired by the maintenance NPC immediately.

Doya says she'll be working fast.

If left damaged, wet mice will emerge on the ground, so it seems that the priority of action is also high.

All right, let's go in.

Unlock the electronic lock and enter the tunnel.

Light the lantern of the machine spear and proceed with caution.

"Where do you put the poison dumplings?

We have identified “nests” everywhere in the tunnel.I can't tell you exactly where it is because it conflicts with the private use of rights, but if you look for it, you'll find it soon. "

I'm sorry to hear you say that.

But I shook my head and stacked the dumplings in a dry place without water.

"That's good. Are you coming back?"

"Eh!? You know what? Leave it like this."

Hmm? This isn't going to work.

I'll explain to both of you how confused I am.

"In addition to the original poison, this dumpling contains poison with a weak paralyzing effect and strong hallucinogenic effect.If one of us eats this, he'll come back to the herd and tell us about this dumpling pile. "

"I see....?

"Besides, the poison stays inside the rat.If a wet mouse eats his pals' corpses like some slug, that's all it does. "

I can still mass produce and try the product.

We leave the dumplings in the tunnel and go outside.

When should I come back for confirmation?

"I've set it up with my Trap skills.If it works, I'll be notified. "

The poison intentionally regulates the effect to slow down in order to gain time for the dumpling mice to return to the herd.

There will be some time before the results come out.

"Letty, Wadatsumi. Let's take a look around the commercial district."

Agrie, that's a very good idea.

"Ah, I think Letty's good too!

At the same time, we are back in the commercial district.

Now it's not about collecting poison dumplings, it's about free-spirited window shopping.

After all, there are many stores that handle seafood products.

Off course, that's what I'm proud of.

She is cute and pungent.

There are a variety of shops in the commercial district, from fresh fish shops that handle fresh raw fish to dried goods shops lined with kelp and seaweed.

Inside, there is an unusual species such as a sea snake specialty store.

On the other hand, there are many buildings with bills still under preparation, which makes me feel that there is still room for development.

"Does Wadatsumi think about everything about this unique shop?

"Yes, that's my job."

"Hah. After all, it's kind of amazing to say, the administrator is..."

Cockneyed and nodded.

Letty pinned her ears and looked down at her hair.

"Fufu, I know every corner of Wadatsumi because I'm the manager of Wadatsumi.Rather, understanding and managing it is the reason for waxy existence. "

"... but you have time to go out like this."

This is also part of the job.We believe that deepening our communication experience is important and urgent, as we are also deeply involved in future plans.

"Really?

Letty turned her eyes to suspicion at the sharp clarity.

Whatever it is, Wada Tsumi has become much easier to speak than before, or it is certain that it has become a human language.

They should only be involved with us yet, but it is the pivotal computing device in charge of the driftstone city function that learns and adapts quite quickly.

"Oops, looks like it worked."

Looking around the store at the product, the system log starts to flow with anger.

Apparently the operation went well.

"Let's go back and check it out!

I see. Shall we go? "

Letty tells me we're going back to the tunnel.

The poison dumplings that I planted disappeared beautifully without leaving any leftovers, and that alone made me feel successful.

"Letty, can you smell it?

"It's impossible because it's not a dog type.Hmmm.... "

"No Problem. Look over there."

Looking for the whereabouts of the rats who ate the poison dumplings, the walnuts point to the corner of the tunnel.

There is a wet rat that twitches and collapses.

"I did it! Did he do everything he could before he went back to his nest?"

Rush over and stab him with a spear.

Looking nearby, other shadows were spotted that fell towards the back of the tunnel.

"There's a lot of them!This is a bit disgusting!

Let's steadily finish it off and collect it.

The rats, like the breadcrumbs left behind by Hensel and Gretel, were picked up with Letty.

Then we arrived at the back of the tunnel - a compartment lined with starchy reservoirs.

Amazing! What a surprise!

The rats seemed to have drilled a hole in one of the reservoirs and nested the empty space.

Looking inside, the walnuts raised their voices.

In a large tank with dirty water at the bottom - where countless wet mice (sea rats) peeled off their white eyes and piled up.
