The Great Merchant in the Cataclysm

heard that Zhang Mu was starving, she hurriedly finished her sentences and wanted to go in and take the rice.

However, Zhang Mu stopped her.
He saw Yuan Rui frowning and explained, “I predict that with my appetite, the rice you made is not enough.
The energy that rice and vegetables can provide to a combat evolver like me is totally not enough.
I think that Wang Liang didn’t give you a lot of meat too.

Let me tell you first.
I am not suspecting your cooking skills.
I am just saying that on normal days, it is enough but not now.
I used a lot of energy today.”

During the battle with Zero, Zhang Mu didn’t manage to succeed in retaliating but he kept trying to resist the spiritual power that was controlling him.
Even though there were no results, he used a lot of his spiritual power.
Some were replenished during his sleep just now but the energy couldn’t just come back by itself.

Zhang Mu smiled mysteriously and waved his left hand.
He showed off the Obsidian Beetle dagger and said, “Let me show you the real barbecue master technique.”

“Techniques of a barbecue master?” The unhappiness that Yuan Rui felt when Zhang Mu didn’t want to eat the food that she made disappeared.
She looked at Zhang Mu’s empty right hand with curiosity.

He controlled his mind and the mutated black bear body that was stored in his era merchant ring got shifted out.
It slammed heavily on the ground.

Under Yuan Rui’s surprised gaze, Zhang Mu used the Obsidian Beetle dagger and skillfully peeled off the bear’s skin.
He passed it to Yuan Rui and said, “Wash off the blood on it.
I already have one with me.
It was from the bear that we ate last time.
This bear skin is for you.
We will use it as a mat when we go out next time.”

The bearskin was really big.
Zhang Mu was afraid that Yuan Rui didn’t have the strength to carry it so he placed it on the side.
He left Yuan Rui to settle the rest.
He found it too troublesome.

A flame rose from the tip of the dagger.
This was something unique about the Obsidian Beetle dagger which Zhang Mu found out earlier on.
If the flame stuck on the tip of the knife, it would be suppressed by the material of the knife and the temperature of the flame would not be as high.
It would just be a little higher than the flames on Earth.

Zhang Mu held onto the flame dagger and cut the bear’s meat.
He aimed at the bear’s chest and cut through it.
Since the flame’s temperature was not so high, the bear’s meat only got cut when the knife touched it.
After that, under Zhang Mu’s control, the energy maintained its size and gave out a ‘zizi’ sound.

Zhang Mu cut the meat really slowly but the Obsidian Beetle dagger was too sharp.
The mutated animal’s meat was nothing to it so he followed the texture of the meat and sliced a thin piece of meat.
He barbecued it in high temperature and the meat immediately became soft and crispy.
A wonderful meat fragrance started to float in the air.

Zhang Mu was so hungry, he could not overcome the temptation of this meat.
After slicing off a piece of meat, he instantly put it in his mouth.

He chewed the meat but the movement of his hands didn’t stop.
He was like a highly efficient machine, slicing meat and eating them at a steady pace.

Very soon, this part of meat disappeared and the bear’s organs were revealed.

Zhang Mu moved on to another spot.
Yuan Rui was watching him in awe.

He can eat so much?
