Blending of Planes: I am leisurely farming

The swarm of bees had already spread out and were searching the surroundings.

After a while, news really came that something was found deep in the secret forest.

Sean sneaked over when no one was paying attention.

He came to the forest of sturdy stone pillars. It was in a mess except for the stone statue of the old master which was well preserved.

The remaining fog eroded everything around. Some of the stone pillars had collapsed, while others had deep cracks. The ground was covered with rubble and dust, as if it had experienced a disaster.

"Buzz buzz buzz~" A bee gestured towards the messy vines on one side, and carefully pushed aside the dead branches and vines blocking the way. A talisman that was burnt to only half was left hanging in the middle.

Bend down to pick it up and observe it carefully.

There were charred marks on the talisman, and it emitted a faint magical fluctuation.

"This talisman looks quite old, and the fluctuations of the magic power on it are also very strange. It doesn't look like the method used by the Sea Spirit to seal it." He gently touched the patterns on the talisman with his fingers, feeling the residual magic power on it.

"Why does this residual thunder element have an inexplicable sense of familiarity? Is it a strange space in the snowfield?" Sean had this thought.

He was startled by this idea and after a careful search found no other evidence to support it, so he had to put it aside for the time being.

"Is this huge rock the place where the black shadow is sealed?" In front of Sean was the huge rock that was cracked in the middle.

The boulder was huge, at least several people tall, with a huge crack, as if it had been pierced from top to bottom by a giant axe.

There were traces of lightning strikes all over the boulder, and the faint fluctuations of lightning elements matched the residues on the talisman completely.

Sean secretly guessed in his heart: "Someone cast a spell and used lightning to hit the talisman, causing the seal to loosen, allowing the black shadow to escape?" He frowned and thought: "Are seals so casual nowadays? In the wilderness, there is no early warning or protection."

"But who is this third party? Why did they release the black shadow and not care about it? Is it really a coincidence that a crack appeared in the snowfield space and a lightning bolt happened to destroy the seal?"

"No way? No way?"

He turned around and around, but still found no clues about the existence of a third party, and the bee colony did not report any new discoveries.

Sean shook his head helplessly, no longer dwelling on his own guesses, and focused his attention on the environment in front of him.

If we were to say what is the most eye-catching thing in this forest of stone pillars, the huge rock would definitely not be the first one.

Just like the huge stone statue of the old master that Sean was looking at now, his eyes were naturally attracted to this statue.

According to Feng Shui and geomancy, judging from the collapsed pillars and broken stone floors, this place may have been a palace in the past, and this stone statue was the centerpiece of the palace. It's just that I don't know why a sealed object would be placed in such a palace.

Could it be that this stone statue served a guardian purpose but lost its effectiveness due to age?

Sean carefully observed the statue, which had a kind face, just like the enthusiastic old man who guards the door downstairs in the familiar community.

Looking at it, a sense of intimacy arises spontaneously.

Sean was amazed and was about to use his psychic vision to investigate. When he turned on his psychic vision, it was as if a switch was triggered. A message appeared in Sean's mind:

"--Master Cannoli (Master Cannoli)--

...Still pursuing the sweetest taste..."

"What is this? A mechanism left behind by our ancestors? A fried cheese roll from a master chef? What is this? Something to eat?" Sean was completely confused.

(Anyway, I was totally confused when I triggered this for the first time. Later, after reading the guide, I realized that this might be a translation error.)

"Who is old Master Cannoli? What is the sweetest taste?" He pondered this information over and over in his mind, trying to find some clues from it.

"Sean, you did a great job protecting Pelican Town. I never thought that something like this would go wrong after being away for a while."

At this moment, suddenly, there was a flash of white light, and a man covered in a cloak appeared behind Sean.

Sean was startled, turned around suddenly, and shouted vigilantly: "Who!"

The mysterious man took off his hood, revealing a head of thick purple hair. It was Rasmodes who had left.

Sean breathed a sigh of relief: "You're back? The way you showed up was a little scary."

Rasmodesmodis smiled and slowly walked to the statue, and Sean obediently made way.

"I didn't expect that there was a stone statue of you hidden here." Rasmodes said as he reached out and touched the statue.

"This old guy's name is Cannoli. He's a weird guy. He was an unrecognized chef before he awakened his abilities." Rasmodes said slowly.

"Speaking of which, the organization called Secret Treasure Jingwei was founded by him. He was not recognized by the mainstream when he was a chef. After awakening his ability, he relied on his strong strength to maintain a state of not following orders but obeying orders. As a vassal king, the Secret Treasure Jingwei is his power. As long as there is no dissent, it is a semi-official organization."

As soon as Rasmodes opened his mouth he told Sean an old secret, and Sean hurriedly took note of it.

"But I haven't heard from him for more than ten years, and I don't know what happened to him." He sighed.

"Could something have happened?" Sean asked.

Rasmodes shook his head. "With his strength, he can still escape unless he is desperate. The only regret in his life is that after awakening his ability, there is no food that can satisfy his taste buds as a cook, so he has been searching for various foods that reach the extreme in a certain taste."

"The Secret Treasure Association cultivated many seeds to satisfy the creator's preferences, but unfortunately none of them met the requirements. Even after Cannoli disappeared, they did not stop because they discovered stone statues that Cannoli had left behind."

“There are all kinds of taste requirements on it, but no specific requirements have been completed so far.”

"So this stone statue is one of them, and it tastes sweet?" Sean suddenly realized.

"Yes, I don't know what this old guy is up to. It's better to stay calm like this." From Rasmodes' tone, it can be seen that Cannoli is not as restless as his friendly face suggests.

Suddenly, Sean seemed to have thought of something and said in surprise, "So the seeds that Madam Melo from the Secret Treasure Association gave me were also for this?"

Rasmodes looked at Sean and nodded meaningfully: "Maybe, this may be an opportunity, you can give it a try."

"So many people in the Secret Treasure Meridian Society have failed~" Sean pretended to be very embarrassed, wondering if he could get some benefits from Las Modes.

"Although the old guy is a little weird, he is still very generous." Rasmodes seemed to see what Sean was thinking. He only encouraged him verbally without any actual action. "Don't worry too much. Just do your best."

After saying that, he said goodbye to Sean and disappeared in a flash.

It's a really useful ability, great for scaring people. Sean really envies the ability of teleportation.
