The next day there was an accident in the company.
The reason was that a woman came early in the morning and pulled a publicity stand downstairs, on which was written “Thank you Wu XX for taking care of my husband, Fang X, in bed, wonderful hands and kind heart, male doctor’s saint”.
Wu XX is a female employee of Lu Yao’s company. As soon as she saw the display, she turned her head and ran away, but she was caught by the other party and was scolded.
This incident caused the whole building people have stopped to watch the fun.
Boss Huang wanted to go and persuade them to settle the matter privately, but ended up getting dragged into the fray instead, making a mess of it.
Lu Yao also stood by the window eating melon.
The visitor was tough and made a scene all the way from downstairs to the company, killing everyone in the office.
In the end, Boss Huang simply gave everyone a half day off and chose to avoid him.
Lu Yao was overjoyed and immediately cycled all the way home.
……
Last night, he had been tinkering with the [Egil’s Fire] and was in love with this heavy firepower weapon.
In this Shard World, the only long range firepower Lu Yao had previously possessed was the [Miracle], which could theoretically be released instantly from any corner of this world.
However, the Miracle also had its drawbacks.
Firstly, it needed to consume faith.
Then it also had to be operated by Lu Yao himself, and if the target was an individual moving at high speeds, it also required skill and micromanagement.
[Egil’s Fire] was different, it was a long-range mass murderer that didn’t require faith to support it, a ranged bombardment that could envelop up to one screen, making it impossible for the enemy to hide.
Although it currently only had 4 rounds of ammunition, its power was quite considerable.
Previously, during Lu Yao’s live-fire exercise, when the [Egil’s Fire] opened fire, the resulting meteorite shower washed the ground and sank a small island.
Lu Yao also understood the strength of the Undersea Rambler clan back then.
Imagine.
The Deep Sea Lord that transformed into a sea fortress came and went ghostly in the sea. It could dive into the deep sea at any time, hibernate under the sea at a much faster speed, and surface for a surprise attack if it needed to.
The Lord of the Deep has excellent range in the ocean, comes with life recovery, and can conscript a variety of sea creatures to augment itself if necessary.
It is even more weighty once it has the spectacle [Egil’s Fire] installed on its back island.
A deep sea lord cruising the sea can target with [Egil’s Fire] and then carry out a ranged meteorite bombardment once it discovers any threat.
If the opponent dives underwater, it will be right in the Deep Sea Lord’s favour, and underwater combat is also its home ground.
The combination of [Deep Sea Lord] and [Egil’s Fire] was equivalent to sea supremacy.
Lu Yao decided that the next time he entered the [Black Abyss], he would use the [Egil’s Fire] to give it a try and see how effective it was in actual combat.
But for now, he was prepared to hold off a little.
He had already done too many fights in the past two weeks, and staying up all night had made him a bit overwhelmed.
Gods also needed to combine work and rest.
……
Lu Yao asked Little Fire to make a cup of flower tea and poured a steaming pot of foot washing water.
When it was cold, drinking some hot tea and soaking one’s feet was very comfortable.
After finishing Lu Yao lay face down on the bed and greeted, “Little Fire, press.”
“Yes.”
Cactus ball carefully climbed onto Lu Yao’s back, its slender green arm pinched his shoulders, it was careful to the point of humility and asked, “Lord God, how do you feel about the force?”
“Not bad. Squeeze the neck and waist as well.”
“Understood.”
After Lu Yao’s many tutelage, the Cactus Orb Attendant was already familiar with the massage routine, mastering the lightness and urgency just right.
Lu Yao lay down on the bed and squinted comfortably.
Physical exhaustion was relieved and relaxed under the massage.
It was now enjoyment time.
Little Flame massaged and relaxed Lu Yao’s shoulders, waist, and legs, making him feel refreshed, and his previous fatigue dissipated.
The mood was good, small plus one shift.
Lu Yao got up and sat in front of his computer, returning his attention to the simulator.
There was an additional reminder on the screen at this time.
[The Garlic Tribe has made an offering.]
There’s an offering?
Lu Yao clicked on the shrine.
A yellowish-brown rough pottery cup appeared in the [Offering] slot.
……
[Cup of Eternity]: +1/hour to Faith.
The cup will turn into sweet wine as long as it is filled with water.
……
Lu Yao had a few surprises.
It would be a good idea to have a small drink tonight.
A few moments later, the [Cup of Perpetuity] appeared on the computer desk.
It was a rudimentary pottery cup with no patterns on its surface, looking like a half-finished pottery fired by a novice.
Lu Yao tried pouring hot water from the kettle into it.
The hot water quickly cooled down as soon as it entered the Cup of Perpetuity, and the heat quickly disappeared without a trace as circular ripples appeared on the surface of the water in the cup.
Within a few seconds, the ripples disappeared and the water in the cup returned to calm.
Lu Yao lifted the ceramic cup and brought it up to his nose to sniff it.
There was indeed a faint smell of wine.
It seemed to have turned into wine?
Lu Yao put the cup down and looked at the cactus ball next to him, “Little Fire, you try drinking it first. See if there are any problems.”
“Yes, Lord God.”
The Immortal Orb shouldered the ceramic cup and pointed the mouth of the cup at its head, and transparent liquid flowed out of the cup and drizzled onto the thorn-covered Immortal Orb. The liquid blended into the cactus ball as soon as it touched it, without any spills.
It shook its body a little, almost a little unsteady on its feet.
Little Fire struggled to stand straight, then prostrated itself with both arms and respectfully knelt on the ground, “Lord God, this is indeed wine, it is not poisonous and can be consumed.”
Lu Yao picked up the pottery cup and took a small sip.
The taste was not pungent and the wine flavour was light, the alcohol content was lower than that of beer, more like an alcoholic beverage.
It was the Immortal’s alcohol capacity that was too poor, not the wine that was too strong.
The wine brewed by the Cup of Eternity had a characteristic clear sweetness that reminded Lu Yao of the well water he drank from his mountain home when he was a child. Moreover, the wine was particularly clear, feeling no impurities and carrying a light fragrance of flowers and fruits.
Unconsciously, Lu Yao downed this cup of wine.
He made another cup with water and slowly tasted it.
It wasn’t until he had refilled three cups that Lu Yao had a bloated feeling from drinking too much water in one gulp.
He tried it himself and made a rigorous assessment.
This wine, it was normal.
It neither poisoned nor strengthened one’s body.
It had only one advantage: it was delicious.
It was just like happy water.
Lu Yao liked this offering.
He was a person who would honour you if you gave me a foot.
Since the tribesmen had made an offering, the god himself had to show his respect as well.
As a god, you can’t be too stingy.
Lu Yao sipped the sweet wine while thinking seriously.
Cigarettes and alcohol never leave home, why don’t we give them some cigarettes?
He immediately dismissed the idea.
This thing, tobacco, is not good for the little people at this stage …… It is too easy to get addicted.
Lu Yao walked around the house with his back hand.
Suddenly, a sudden inspiration flashed through his mind.
There was a thing that was quite suitable.
Playing it safe, Lu Yao still immediately searched the internet. After reading a large number of interpretations and data from authoritative platforms, he was sure that his thinking was basically correct.
Then he put on his socks and shoes, put on his jacket and went straight all the way to the food market.
Half an hour later, Lu Yao returned with a bag of fresh woolly beans. He washed most of the hairy beans and threw them into a pot, adding dried chillies, star anise, peppercorns and salt to brine the beans, and subsequently letting a small fire keep an eye on them.
The other part was passed into the temple by him.
The soybeans were the strategic level [Gift] given by Lu Yao after deep thought.
