Don't Starve, my pickaxe can be upgraded

Chapter 120: The Split of Hongluo Camp
'Is it a probability or some other reason?'

He continued to try.

Anyway, I don’t feel bad about using things like meat paste and tree cake essence.

Now he has the ability to make a lot of food, so he is not short of these "ordinary food ingredients".

Another minute later, another dark dish was ready.

"Or is it just some dark cuisine? Well, maybe that's what the campfire's cooking function is like."

Liu Hen was about to change the ingredients when he suddenly thought: "The combination of ingredients may be fine, but could it be that the quantity is the problem?"

Thinking of this, he immediately tried to change the ratio and put a piece of ice cube, a portion of tree cake essence, and two portions of meat paste into the cooking box.

A minute later, another dark dish came out.

"Still not working? Try changing the ratio."

He changed the ratio again and put one portion of ice cube, one portion of meat paste, and two portions of tree cake essence into the cooking box.

One minute later——

Finally, the new food recipe is out.

"It's really a matter of proportions. I do have a talent for being a chef."

Liu Hen smiled and couldn't wait to look at the recipe and food introduction.

[Mutton meat glutinous rice cake: a delicious after-meal snack.]

"A delicious after-dinner snack? How delicious is it?"

Liu Hen had an idea and took it out to have a look. He found that the wood mud meat rice cake looked a bit like a local specialty that he had eaten as a child in his previous life.

He took a bite and his eyes lit up immediately.

"Why does it look like I'm eating glutinous rice cake? Is this really a snack after dinner?"

He felt that it could be eaten as a staple food, but it was a bit of a luxury.

Because the amount of tree cake essence and horse meat paste on him is limited, once it is used up, it is gone, unless he can get more later.

Before, he thought tree cakes were too rubbish and belonged to the lowest level of food, even far inferior to carbohydrate porridge.

However, he no longer thinks so, because the appearance of this food recipe has greatly increased the status of tree cake in his mind.

'Make more, this is what we'll have for dinner.'

He immediately clicked on the recipe for [Muni Meat Rice Cake] and started making it.

However, unlike carbohydrate porridge, perhaps due to the nature of the food, wood mud meat rice cake cannot be produced in batches. One portion is one portion and is separated individually.

Carbohydrate nutritious porridge is just a pot of liquid. There is no need to distinguish it, and there is no need to divide it carefully when receiving it. You can receive it in portions according to the quantity.

But theoretically, after the wood mud meat rice cake is made, it needs to be cut if it is to be separated. Perhaps it is because of this characteristic that it cannot be produced in large quantities at one time.

You can only make as much as you wanted at a time based on the previous ratio.

"A piece of wood-mud meat cake weighs about two kilograms, which is not a small amount."

Soon, the second piece of wood clay meat glutinous rice cake was cooked. He handed it to Xiao Heishi and said, "This is wood clay meat glutinous rice cake. Try it."

"Thank you, sir." Little Heishi said happily, because she had seen her master eating with gusto, and it was obvious that the food was delicious.

Sure enough, after she took a bite, she couldn't stop.

Apart from a piece of roast horse meat she had eaten before, this was the most delicious food she had ever eaten in her life.

Liu Hen continued cooking, using up all the essence of the tree cake in one breath before stopping.

"There are only a few dozen servings... You can only save them for occasional tastings, not to eat them all at once."

He felt a little regretful and couldn't help wondering in his heart if he could make tree cakes.
In this famine-stricken world, delicious food is hard to come by, so he is willing to spend time researching for the ingredients.

"However, according to rumors, the tree cake seems to be made from a mixture of sawdust and a kind of red snail meat. The main ingredient should be snail meat..."

In this case, even if you know the formula, you won’t be able to imitate it.

Liu Hen had to give up the idea: "Whatever, anyway, with the magical campfire cooking function, I will definitely be able to make even more delicious food in the future."

At the same time, more than 300 kilometers away from Lutu Village.

The deepest part of the underground of Hongluo Camp.

"Crash--" Waves kept rushing ashore on the small piece of beach illuminated by the glowing grass.

When some sea fish or conchs were washed up, someone would immediately rush over to collect them and put them into containers.

At this time, an old man in a black coat came to the shore and knelt down to pay his respects towards the dark sea. "Great Prophet, the bronze dragon you spoke of has arrived."

"Let it in."

An ethereal female voice was heard from the dark sea, and a giant red conch over ten meters long could be vaguely seen floating in the sea.

Not long after, a fat young man came to the beach. He... or rather, it had two dragon horns on its head, and its skin was bronze in color. It was a bronze dragon in human form.

"Greetings, prophet." The young-looking bronze dragon saluted respectfully.

A sigh echoed from the dark waters: "Why didn't you listen to me?"

"What does the prophet mean?" the bronze dragon wondered.

A disembodied female voice echoed from the dark waters, "That human, do not provoke me. I asked you to leave the copper mine so that you could draw a clear line between you and him, and settle all grievances. But you took the copper mine with you, and that's already created a hidden danger."

The Bronze Dragon was immediately displeased. "The Prophet overestimated that human, didn't he? I, a mere peak-level Third Realm cultivator, could have put them in such a state of disarray, let alone you. If I were to ask you, you would have guaranteed to kill them utterly. There's no need to back down like this."

After a pause, it couldn't help but ask, "What exactly did you foresee? Why are you so afraid of that weak human?"

The dark waters were silent for a long moment before an ethereal female voice rang out again: "I saw nothing. He possesses the power of rules that can block my foresight."

"So you didn't see anything at all and were scared away?"

The bronze dragon was almost laughing with anger. If the prophet's realm wasn't far superior to its own, it would have lost its temper. "Although I can't tell the realm of that human, the others are very weak. If they were truly powerful, how could they possibly live with a bunch of ants?"

"He possesses the power of rules. He is either a god-like creature or a rule-based superpower."

The ethereal voice of a large conch echoed from the dark waters: "Whether it's a god-like creature or a rule-based superpower, they are all beings we cannot provoke. You have crossed the line, and I have no choice but to deal with you."

As soon as the words fell, the sea water rolled and an invisible force spread.

The bronze dragon, who had transformed into a human boy, had a change of expression. "What do you mean, Prophet? I've been loyal to you for so many years, and you're actually going to deal with me for a human whose strength you don't know?"

"You will bring disaster to us."

Although the ethereal voice was gentle, the words it spoke were very cold.

"Crash-"

The sea water rolled, and a terrifying demonic force swept over.

The Bronze Dragon said angrily, "I finally understand why you are so powerful and can only hide in the depths of the earth. I, the Bronze Dragon, am ashamed to be associated with you..."

"Crash..."

Before it could finish its words, it was swept under the sea. However, its voice could be heard again from further away: "Since you can predict the future, did you foresee that this body of mine is not my real body? Did you foresee that the people you protect will not be trapped underground forever? Did you foresee that many people have long been dissatisfied with your cowardice... Ah..."

Screams were heard, the sea water rolled, and the demonic power swept over.

"I only need to do my job well and never get involved in the cause and effect of rule-based creatures. Everything else has nothing to do with me."

The ethereal voice remained calm.

"You fear the enemy and brutally suppress your own people... You will be punished sooner or later..."

The bronze dragon's voice suddenly stopped.

But at this moment, the entire Hongluo camp was in chaos, with sounds of fighting and gunfire everywhere.

The war broke out without any warning. Under the instigation of the bronze dragon's true form, a group of people who had long been unable to bear life underground rose up in resistance, killing those cowardly and conservative people and trying to rush out of the underground.

However, to the Bronze Dragon's surprise, the conch did not interfere.

"If you want to leave, leave on your own. From now on, I will no longer protect you."

The conch directly ordered those who were loyal to it to stop, and allowed those who wanted to leave to leave, but they were not allowed to take too much with them.

Overnight, the Red Snail Camp split into two factions, and the faction loyal to the Big Snail continued to hide underground.

The group that wanted to return to the ground followed the bronze dragon and fought their way out.

Almost at the same time, in a place unknown to everyone, a fully armed team wearing exoskeletons and holding various powerful thermal weapons left the underground through a secret passage and quickly headed in the direction of the previous campfire camp.

"Everyone, hurry up! The Prophet has ordered that we must spread the news as soon as possible and let that psychic know that the matter of the bronze dragon has nothing to do with us. Don't let it implicate us..."

The leader looked nervous. It was his first time leaving the underground world and he was panicking.
