There are very few people in this world who eat mimics, because the bodies of mimics often contain a lot of mutation factors derived from the tree of life. Due to the various conditions of people's technology and situation at the time, there is currently no way to eliminate the influence of this mutation factor. , during a certain period when food shortages were caused by the rapid deterioration of the environment, some people tried to eat mimicking creatures to satisfy their hunger. However, these lonely gourmets ended up absorbing excessive mutation factors, which caused irreversible distortion of the cells in their bodies, and in In a short period of time, it turned into a ball of deformed flesh with a torso that swelled into a round shape with seven arms and eight legs (statement).

Since then, no food hunter has dared to eat mimics casually.

That is an ending even more tragic than suicide. Even if the body has turned into a monster, it can still remain alive. When the body is no longer under its control, one feels that one's thinking and consciousness are becoming narrower and clearer. Time is getting shorter day by day, and death will become a torture as long as Ling Chi.

Siegfried's method of using a weakened version of the dragon's roar to remove mutation factors from the mimic organisms is probably a secret that is not spread around the world, but he also said it when he helped Wu Ming bake these 'squid legs' , the so-called "ordinary people will be fine if they eat it" means that eating a small amount will not turn into that kind of deformed meat ball or die...

"Don't eat too much..." Wu Ming originally wanted to remind Zhao Sida and Elizabeth to be careful about the mutation factors contained in these snacks, but after thinking about it, these two superwomen probably don't need to worry about it themselves. Finally, he waved his hands helplessly and said: " Forget it, just don’t overeat..."

Elizabeth chewed the freshly grilled 'squid legs' and said with some slurred speech: "Ummmm...brother, don't you...eat something?"

Wu Ming casually grabbed a small handful of sand and patted it with both hands together. When he spread his hands again, the sand in his palms had turned into several small biscuits like magic: "You see, matter is decomposed and restructured like this." Finally...it was successfully refined."

"Refined?" Siegfried, who was sitting aside and roasting squid legs, looked at the biscuit in Wu Ming's hand with surprised eyes. Since the latter's translation effect is turned on at any time, even if Wu Ming is not there Talking to him, he was able to understand its meaning: "I have also heard of the technology that can turn sand into other metals... It seems to be called alchemy, but can it even make food?"

Wu Ming handed over the biscuit: "Try it? It tastes like human civilization."

"It can't be some illusion that deceives the senses..." Qi Gefei looked at the cookie in Wu Ming's hand. He hesitated for a while before picking up a piece and putting it in his mouth. The next second, his eyes hidden under the mask lit up. , unceremoniously snatched all the biscuits from Wu Ming's hand, and stuffed them all into his mouth like a gulp.

It's sweet. I can't feel anything except sweetness. It's obviously a cloyingly sweet taste, but Siegfried can't stop chewing. Her taste buds were trembling and cheering, and an unprecedented sense of comfort spread throughout her body. She felt as if her soul had left her body, freed from the shackles of time and space, and retrograded time back to the past when human civilization was still glorious. .

In that era, this extremely simple cookie could be bought in almost any pastry shop. At that time, there were also black forest cakes, cream puffs, tiramisu, and macarons that were even more delicious than these. A lot of desserts. At that time, electronic products had entered most people's lives, and they had a variety of ways to spend their leisure time. At that time, famine and common death were still distant things that she could only learn about from the TV screen. In that era, people did not have to hide in caves and shiver and wait for death like they do now. Although some disappointing and heartbreaking tragedies were still inevitable in life at that time, Siegfried still felt that living in that era I am so happy at this time...

How long has it been since you had normal food? How long has it been since I had this kind of dessert? Siegfried no longer remembers it. She only remembers this long time. It was so long that she almost forgot the memory of living in human civilization for the first half of her life. But at this moment, just because of a few cookies, the long-dusted memory box was restored. reopen.

"According to the routine of food comics, is it time to burst into clothes now...?" Wu Ming calmly looked at Siegfried who was mechanically chewing air in his mouth but his consciousness was already far away. He patted his hands again and gave I also made a few biscuits and put them in my mouth: "Well, the stuff made by the material conversion module tastes so-so. At least it shouldn't be as big of a reaction as you. It's time to come back to your senses. You don't really want it." Can you show me your naked clothes?"

Siegfried, who suddenly came back to his senses, turned his head away with a blush on his cheeks: "I just remembered something from the past..."

The originally fuzzy memories were gradually becoming clearer, and many memories that I thought had been forgotten flashed before my eyes. Nostalgia and longing filled Siegfried's heart. It felt like a heart that had stopped beating for a long time was beating again. The feeling of coming back to life made her feel a little at a loss.

Looking at Siegfried's look, Wu Ming's lips showed a hint of a conspiratorial smile. He knew very well that his attempt to treat Fei Ge as an experimental subject should be considered an initial success.

——Smells and tastes can actually awaken past emotions and memories...or is it just so effective on living zombies like Fei Ge who are about to become mentally ill?

No matter what, Wu Ming still has enough time and opportunity to try and awaken Siegfried's desire to return to civilization little by little until he knocks down the Tree of Life. Although Wu Ming doesn't like to impose goodwill on others, let alone ignore them. The idea is to impose his will on others in the name of 'for his own good', but he never said that he would not induce others to make their own choices.

From Wu Ming's point of view, he was just following Siegfried to explore the secrets of the world, and then making some delicious food on the way, bragging to Brother Fei about the current situation of human civilization over there, and inadvertently revealing it. Maybe we can see our relatives and friends again in another world...

These are very normal behaviors, and Wu Ming will not feel any psychological pressure when doing them.

Of course, Wu Ming's current thoughts and mood have already been conveyed to Zhao Sida and Elizabeth through the spiritual link.

"Wow...you guys who play tactics are so dirty..."

"Manager Wu Ming, wise judgment."
