Bringing Culture to a Different World

Chapter 781 - the chafing dish war



The three of them had come to discuss how to deal with the heretic inquisitors.

But when Josh learned that Shea hadn’t had dinner tonight… their attention turned to the meat floating on the soup.

The appearance of the three of them changed the situation of the chafing dish war.

After learning how to use chopsticks, Shier had successfully occupied a corner of the hot pot.

Although Gloria’s grasp of chopsticks was still a little rusty, Myrcella had already learned how to use chopsticks and had helped Gloria occupy resources in another area.

The Dark Elves had never had a good impression of the people of the sacred land. She had already started fighting with Myrcella for resources.

Jose held a bowl of white rice and watched the fight between the Dark Elves and Myrcella. Both sides were good at using close-range weapons.

The Dark Elves’movements were very swift and fierce. It was as if a dagger had pierced into the enemy’s chest in an instant. They snatched the fish slices that Myrcella was about to pick up.

Myrcella did not choose to give the fish slices to the dark elves. Her third eye could clearly see the movement of the dark elves’chopsticks, in the next second, she used her knight’s swordsmanship to chop down the fish slices that the dark elves had snatched away from her chopsticks.

This confrontation continued. Joshua could only avoid the fight between the two of them and silently took a piece of vegetable leaf from the edge of the pot.

“Um… please don’t use your swordsmanship while eating hotpot.”

Joshua glanced at the prophet who had stopped using his chopsticks again and had no choice but to intervene in the sword fight between the two of them.

At this moment, Shiel, who was on the other side, was using an awkward hand gesture to pick up a small piece of lamb meat. Her chopsticks pierced through the small piece of meat. She repeatedly picked it up and found that the piece of meat was transparent.

An illusion!

Shiel instantly understood what she was facing. The next second, Joshua caught an ice-blue inscription on the tip of her finger. The tip of the chopsticks began to freeze.

“Stop! No magic is allowed when eating hotpot! There’s still a lot of meat, you can eat as much as you want!”

Joshua immediately stopped Shere from casting ice magic on the Hotpot, or else Joshua might have to eat frozen beef tonight.

Hiri knew that she had done something wrong, so she did not say anything… silently holding the wooden bowl and pretending to drink the soup, she covered half of her face.

“Shiel… Highness… Shiel.”

Joshua wanted to address her respectfully, but Shiel’s small eyes still made Shiel call her by her name.

“I’m very curious about your relationship with Helolia.”

“Of course, Shiel’s Highness and I are comrades in arms who are chasing after the judge.”

Before Shiel could speak, Helolia answered Joshua first.

Joshua turned his head to look at Gloria. Her way of using chopsticks was very comical. She held the chopsticks with one hand even though Myrcella had already put the meat into her bowl, she could only use two sticks to pick up the meat.

Please don’t talk to a child who doesn’t even know how to use chopsticks… Joshua grumbled in his heart while Shearer kept his eyes on the bubbling soup.

“A potential partner, but I still can’t trust you now.”

Shier was very straightforward. She raised her eyes to look at Joshua, then looked at the soup, and then took the lamb that she wanted to eat earlier.

“A potential partner, huh? Then what information did helolia tell you that made you come here so urgently to find me?”

Joshua calculated the time. It was already late at night, and Nolan’s teleportation portal had been completely closed.

Shier could return to the frost kingdom through the teleportation portal built by the sin demons, so there was no need to worry about this.

But if she had anything, she could definitely inform Joshua on the magic web as soon as possible.

“The adjudicators have a kind of magic puppet. It can corrode human consciousness and turn humans into slaves,”shier said to Joshua.

“The enemy has been strengthened again? HMM… this kind of brainwashing ability can be achieved by undead magic and spirit magic, but to let the magic puppet have this ability…”

Joshua swallowed the vegetable leaves in his mouth and then looked at Hiri and the prophet.

Both of them knew more about Nolan’s magic development than Joshua did.

“If the magic puppet could have this ability, something would have happened a long time ago… Joshua, the intelligence crisis you mentioned.”

Hiri used a very certain tone to tell Joshua that Nolan’s magic puppet could not possibly have this ability.

“At the current stage, the technology of the human magic puppet is only at the level of treating the magic puppet as a tool. Most of them are used for simple tasks such as turning over the ground and lifting heavy objects. Currently, I don’t remember any magic puppet that can threaten the soul and spirit of humans.”

The prophet shook his head and further confirmed Hiri’s words. However, when she used this tone to explain, Joshua really felt that this ten-year-old girl was like a machine.

However, it was impossible for a magic puppet to snatch lamb rolls from others.

“Of course, it’s impossible for humans to create a magic puppet of this level at this stage.”

Gloria waved the chopsticks in her hand, indicating that Joshua and the others were too ignorant in their thoughts.

However, while she was waving the chopsticks, a small piece of fish that she picked up with great difficulty fell to the ground.

Myrcella sighed helplessly. She had no choice but to invade the dark elves’‘Territory’again and find a new piece for Gloria.

“You want to say that it’s a relic from Nolan’s underground?”

Joshua had the illusion that the new expansion of this world was about to begin. And this time, the prelude of the legendary story actually began with a hot pot… just thinking about it made him feel a little funny.

“That’s right. There are a lot of ruins underground in the frost country. This is also the reason why the adjudicators are so active there. I can tell you what’s in those ruins…”

Gloria once again turned on the ‘ask me quick’mode. Joshua pursed his lips slightly. Before Gloria could continue, a gentle voice interrupted her.

“Heart Lock.”

Tyreen, who had been feeding the cat quietly, suddenly spoke.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on the frost elf.

“There’s a relic of the ancestors in the underground of my hometown. There are some ‘coffins’in the relic. Some humans are sleeping in the coffins. The elders called them ‘Heart Locks’. Now that I think about it, they might be the magic puppets that you mentioned.”

Tyreen raised her head and stared at Joshua with a gaze that was called ‘determination’.

“The elders said that… those puppets can absorb the emotions and souls of humans.”

“Why does it sound familiar to me?”Joshua felt that he had heard this word before.

Hiri, who was sitting opposite Joshua, used her lips to say the word ‘shining’. This reminded Joshua of the previous ‘shining’in the space of consciousness, when Josh was playing games with the judges who had broken into the space of consciousness, they did have a little girl with them who was in a strange situation.
