Bring some Bankai ingredients to Shokugeki

After coming out of the restaurant with the 'living paintings'.

Xu Kangping quickly found the entrance to the fourth floor of the underground maze according to the map.

Then he successfully entered the fourth level of the underground maze.

On the fourth level of the underground maze, there is a lake underground.

It is formed by the gradual gathering of groundwater flowing out of cracked rock strata.

The water was rich in magic, so it shimmered.

There is no need for flames for lighting here.

So Xu Kangping extinguished the flame in his hand.

The water in the lake is very clear.

Xu Kangping stood at the edge of the lake and looked down.

You can see various buildings that appear and disappear like phantoms.

That is the urban area surrounding the Golden Castle submerged at the bottom of the lake.

After enjoying the surrounding scenery.

Xu Kangping began to think about what to do next.

He doesn't know magic like 'walking on water'.

Even the power of 'Nian' and gourmet cells could not allow him to walk on water.

Of course, if you have strong physical fitness.

With some skills, it is also possible to walk on water.

For example, you can walk on the water by quickly alternating your left and right feet.

Unfortunately, Xu Kangping tried, but his current physical condition was not enough to do it.

In addition, the 'Moon Step', which involves flying directly on the air, is also impossible.

The prototype of the word "shave" was used by chance.

As for using tools.

There are a few rafts at the entrance.

However, this lake is actually divided into many parts by the buildings of the Golden Castle that are exposed above the water.

So if he uses a raft, when he encounters a building, he needs to move the raft over.

It feels really troublesome.

So after some consideration, Xu Kangping finally chose swimming.

With strong physical fitness and Nen ability.

Even if he encounters fishmen in the water, Xu Kangping is confident that he can deal with them.

It just so happened that I didn’t know what world I would end up in before.

So I prepared a lot of things, including swimsuits.

After picking out a light blue swimsuit and putting it on.

Xu Kangping suddenly jumped into the water.

Although the lake water was a little cold, it did not have much impact on Xu Kangping.

First came the breaststroke, then the backstroke, the dog paddle, the freestyle...

Xu Kangping's strong physical fitness makes him like a torpedo in the water.

While swimming, Xu Kangping suddenly heard a ethereal singing voice.

The beautiful singing made Xu Kangping unable to help but listen carefully.

Then Xu Kangping felt the urge to find the source of the singing.

This made Xu Kangping change the direction of his swimming.

However, after swimming a few meters, Xu Kangping suddenly stopped.

The 'qi' in his body fluctuated violently for a moment.

Xu Kangping breathed a sigh of relief.

He was almost bewitched by the mermaid's singing.

Of course, this was mainly because he was not prepared at all.

Now that he was on guard, the mermaid's song could hardly confuse him.

But Xu Kangping still swam towards the direction where the singing came from.

Soon, Xu Kangping saw two mermaids singing on the top of a ruined tower about thirty meters away from him.

Xu Kangping did not come any closer.

He came here just to listen to the mermaid's song better.

If you continue to get closer, it will be bad.

On the one hand, it was because he got closer.

The enchanting power of the mermaid's song also grows.

If you keep getting closer, you'll be fine for a while.

But if you stay there for too long, you might be confused by the mermaid's singing.

On the other hand, although he was somewhat interested in mermaids.

He also obtained the means to take away the mermaid before - 'Living Painting'

Yet he only has one 'living painting'.

It certainly cannot be used to raise mermaids who cannot be used as food.

Since you are not planning to catch the mermaid.

Naturally, there is no need to get too close.

If the mermaid is scared away, then we won’t be able to hear her singing.

But Xu Kangping didn't come any closer.

But Xu Kangping seemed to be listening to their singing without being confused.

The two mermaids became a little flustered.

So he quickly jumped into the water and disappeared.

This made Xu Kangping a little disappointed as he was unable to listen to the entire mermaid song.

But it was obviously impossible for him to catch the two mermaids and let them continue singing.

So after I sorted myself out.

Xu Kangping continued to move forward.

An hour later, just as Xu Kangping was about to swim to a nearby building to rest and have dinner.

A dark shadow suddenly rushed towards him from under the water.

Although Xu Kangping only discovered it after he got closer.

But it was enough for Xu Kangping to deal with it.

Swinging his arms and legs quickly, Xu Kangping jumped forward several meters in an instant.

Just avoided the impact of the black shadow.

At this time, Xu Kangping also saw the appearance of the black shadow clearly.

A monster that looks very much like a squid.

Of course, compared to ordinary squids, this monster has more tentacles and is larger in size.

In the world of Labyrinth, this kind of monster is called Kraken.

It is a large monster.

The one in front of Xu Kangping had a body length of about two meters, and with its tentacles, it could barely reach five meters.

Compared to the super-large Kraken that Laos and his companions will encounter in the future, which is dozens of meters long.

This Kraken is also much smaller than an ordinary adult Kraken.

In other words, this is just an immature Kraken.

However, even though it was an underage Kraken, Xu Kangping was not prepared to show mercy.

Since you dare to attack him, you should pay with your body!

Wait until the underage Kraken rushes towards him again.

Xu Kangping did not choose to avoid it, but took out a dagger.

This also allowed the Kraken's tentacles to successfully wrap around him.

However, this was all within Xu Kangping's expectations.

Before Kraken could move further, the dagger in Xu Kangping's hand had already pierced between Kraken's eyes.

In an instant, the Kraken's deep red appearance turned pale.

Apparently, the Kraken was killed by his one strike.

He pulled the Kraken by one of its tentacle and dragged it to the nearby building.

Xu Kangping showed an expectant look.

Although the giant Kraken that Laos and his companions encountered in the future tasted very bad.

But in Xu Kangping's opinion, that was because the meat of the super-large Kraken was too old.

Now this immature Kraken must have tender meat.

To verify my guess.

Xu Kangping cut a piece of meat directly from the Kraken.

Sprinkle some salt on it and put it in your mouth.

After chewing it twice, Xu Kangping showed a look of surprise.

It was just as he guessed.

The meat of this Kraken is very tender, refreshing, chewy and has a great taste.

Although there is still some fishy smell, this is normal.

And some fishy smell can still be removed.

Xu Kangping did not hesitate and immediately started to deal with the Kraken.

Boil, bake, steam, fry, pan-fry...

No matter how you prepare it, it is delicious.
