Fresh monster meat has been soaked in high-concentration white wine to remove the strong fishy smell.
After frying it in hot oil at 300 degrees Celsius for a full 10 minutes, the pieces of monster meat were immediately fried to a golden color, fat but not greasy. As for the taste... not that good!
In the exquisite and elegant restaurant, Zhang Ming was enjoying the dark cuisine provided by the Honggang people. Not to mention, these guys could actually cook the monster meat so exquisitely, which was somewhat beyond his expectations!
"Ugh...it tastes better than what I cooked anyway!"
In addition, these foreigners from Gondor are indeed knowledgeable and talented. They can talk well at the table and provide food and wine, which can be regarded as fulfilling the friendship of the landlords.
This lively scene seems familiar. Every winter when I go home to celebrate the New Year, there will always be a group of elders chatting at the dinner table.
At that time I thought they were irritating, but now I haven't heard their voices for a long time.
Zhang Ming patted his belly with satisfaction. After finishing this plate of monster meat, he entered a soul-full state, which meant that eating more monster meat in a short period of time would not increase his attribute points.
So he picked up a glass of strong liquor and started drinking by himself.
Wine is naturally good wine, a little mellow, and has a wildness like slash-and-burn farming, but Zhang Ming always feels that this thing is not as good as Coke. After so many years, he still doesn't like alcoholic drinks. After all, alcohol seems to be harmful to the human body from a microscopic perspective. If you can avoid drinking it, don’t drink it.
It can be seen that the Honggang people are a race that is extremely addicted to alcohol. Gondor actually drank more than a kilogram on his own, and his face was slightly rosy. Fortunately, he was also a strong man and could not fall down because of this alcohol.
"Our world community alone is big enough! We Honggang people have only completed about 5% of the exploration in so many years."
"The Sea of Demon Gods is full of dangers, and it's impossible to wander around every day... I can only go out for a stroll during foreign trade. A journey may take dozens or hundreds of years, but there are not many civilizations worthy of long-term trade. "
"Don't you have that kind of aircraft?" Zhang Ming gestured a few times, "The speed of air vehicles is much faster than that of ships."
"How come there isn't..." Gondor said with a bitter smile, "However, the aircraft can only fly a few thousand kilometers, and then it runs out of fuel. The best aircraft of our clan can only fly 100,000 kilometers at a time... This point The distance is really not enough to see in the Sea of Demon Gods."
"What's more, the transportation capacity of aircraft is limited, and the safety is not as good as that of ships... Flying in the sky and making huge noises will always attract something. If they collide..." Gondor helplessly spread out. He spread his hands and made a move that would destroy the machine and kill everyone.
"Of course, it is indeed feasible to use aircraft to travel short distances, within 10,000 to 20,000 kilometers."
Zhang Ming actually wanted to buy a plane and fly directly back to Earth, but after what he said, he could only give up for now.
After all, his sailboat has traveled more than two million kilometers over the years, far exceeding the flight capabilities of aircraft.
He asked another question: "How big is the Demon Sea?"
When talking about this topic, Gondor became excited, shook his head and said: "It may be bigger than you think. According to the investigation of our civilization's scientists, the Sea of Demon Gods is divided into three parts: world community, world ring, and world domain. Sequentially increasing blocks.”
"The world community is just the smallest division unit of this sea area... The same community often has many similar biological species. In our world community, the most widely distributed fish is called roundfish. As long as there are a large number of roundfish Wherever they are distributed, they belong to the same community.”
"If you can't even reproduce in large numbers, you're going to have another community."
Zhang Ming was a little dazed when he heard that there was such a thing: "Then how is the world ring defined?"
Gondor continued: "Occasionally, through the turbulence of time and space, major species from other world communities will be transported here, such as the main fish in the community next door, called wax fish. Ladines can also survive and reproduce in our community. , but due to factors such as geography and marine environment, its reproductive capacity is not high and it cannot compete with the roundfish."
"Experts from our tribe discovered this phenomenon, so they gathered world communities that can transmit to each other and called them the same world ring."
"Creatures in the same world ring communicate through the turbulence of time and space, but because of the large geographical span, some chance is required."
"Look at it this way, the Sea of Demon Gods is really too big." Zhang Ming took a breath. He had been sailing in the Sea of Demon Gods for so many years, but he was still just wandering around in the same community.
Gondor added: "The world ring is not the biggest distinguishing unit. Experts from our civilization believe that although the species of our world ring and the world ring next door are very different, and the physical rules are very different, the timelines are the same. "
"As long as the timeline is the same, it's the same world domain."
"If the timelines are different, they are not the same world domain. The division of world domains is too large and completely exceeds our capabilities, so there is no need for much research..."
Zhang Ming nodded with interest, he finally understood what this guy said.
World communities, world rings, and world domains are a bit like the differences between the solar system, the Milky Way, and the Virgo supercluster.
They belong to the same world community and can be reached by sailing. It just takes a little longer, just like the distance between him and human civilization.
If they belong to the same world ring, there is no need to sail a ship. Under normal circumstances, contact can only occur through the turbulence of time and space.
They belong to the same world domain, don't think about it, knowing this is already amazing.
However, he suddenly thought of something and asked: "Have you ever heard of the azure civilization in your civilization?"
"As entrusted by an old friend, if they encounter the blue crystal civilization, I have some good things to give them."
Zhang Ming took out a pen and paper and drew a standard image of a blue crystal man, making it quite obvious that there was a crystal stone on the forehead of the blue crystal man.
The corpse of the demon god "Insect of Time and Space", which involves uniqueness, will naturally not be returned.
But for other precious minerals, such as irregular minerals, and other carapace, bones, scales, etc., it is not a big problem to trade some or even directly give some away. After all, the racial potential of the blue crystal civilization is very high, and from the perspective of civilization, it is also a worthy object of communication.
"Well, azure civilization... I have never heard of it." Gondor was silent for a moment, and then passed the portrait to his staff.
The Honggang people at the dinner table shook their heads. Even if they had never met a civilization with such obvious characteristics, they would have heard about it through interactions with other civilizations.
But they didn't have any impression, which shows...
Zhang Ming frowned slightly: "According to the strength of the blue crystal people, if they find a new world, it is impossible not to come out and communicate with the outside world."
"Either they are really extinct, or... they were sent to another world community by the turbulence of time and space. I hope it is the second case, alas."
However, he didn't dwell on it too much, and he remembered what he had discovered in the abyss: "Do you know about the demon god 'Ten Thousand Eyes' and the 'Six Blinds' who killed the demon god?"
This time there is some information.
Gondor considered it for a moment and said with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Zhang has a strong thirst for knowledge about the old mythological era."
"This is actually a huge secret of civilization. In order to discover this secret, our civilization has even opened a special research course called Mythology and Archeology, which specializes in collecting legends and stories passed down by various civilizations!"
"In the legend of our tribe, a long time ago, there were two suns in the sky, one black and one white. Anyone who saw the black sun would die because his eyes would spontaneously ignite."
"There was a god named 'Six Blinds' who shot down the black sun, and in the end only the current one was left."
Zhang Ming touched his chin. Why did this legend feel so familiar?
Gondor added: "But that's all. We further discovered that similar legends have appeared in various civilizations."
"It is recorded in civilized legends that there are seven suns in the sky, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and only the yellow one remains."
"There are also civilizations that claim that the person who shoots down the sun is not called the 'Six Blind', but the 'Five Blind', the 'Four Blind', or some other name. There are also civilizations that claim that the person who shoots down the sun is called the 'Six Blind'." It was dropped instead of shot with a bow and arrow, interesting right? Haha.”
"The details may be off, but there is such a thing as the sun shooting down."
Seeing that this extraordinary person listened attentively and was in good spirits, Gondor was also a little proud. These topics were like talking about mountains and rivers. They were not considered confidential, but just added to the fun.
"How did this strange phenomenon appear? Our tribe's mythology experts have put forward several hypotheses."
"The first is some kind of mapping between world domains, or world rings."
The scope of these three concepts, world community, world ring, and world domain, has increased exponentially.
Honggangren believes that this kind of story really happened in another world domain or world ring.
Therefore, under the influence of some kind of idealistic force, the civilizations in this world domain or the world ring have collectively appeared similar legends.
"It makes sense."
Zhang Ming quite agrees with this statement. He has personally experienced the "tide of idealistic information" in the dimensional rift.
Because of the infinite combination of idealistic information, the extremely terrifying demon god was born.
Some super strong information torrent from another world is projected into our own world, leading to the emergence of similar legends. Therefore, this hypothesis has a certain theoretical basis.
Looking at it this way, the Honggang people are quite powerful. Anyway, Zhang Ming himself does not have the ability to collect so many civilization legends.
