Komatsu's Love Defense

Chapter 188 Mysterious Recipe

I held the Melk knife tightly in my hand, the blade gleaming coldly in the dim light. I was completely lost in this pyramid of food, with mountains of red sand everywhere, and I could only grope forward in this endless maze.

I looked around and saw all kinds of rooms in the pyramid. I carefully entered one of the rooms, pressed my body against the door frame, and held the kitchen knife in my hand ready to deal with any possible threats.

The room was dark and eerie, with an ancient and strange atmosphere in the air. I looked around the room and saw several huge sarcophagi neatly placed on the left and right sides and on the main seat on the upper floor. A mysterious sun pattern was engraved on the surface of these sarcophagi.

My expression gradually became solemn, and I looked up at the ceiling. I saw water drops constantly oozing out of the stones on the ceiling. These water drops sparkled with crystal light in the weak light, then slowly dripped down, and finally landed on two of the sarcophagi.

My eyes were instantly attracted by the water stains, and my pupils shrank. A strong sense of uneasiness suddenly surged in my heart, and I cursed in a low voice: "Isn't this the coffin where those sleeping Neteros are imprisoned? This place is too dangerous, I have to leave quickly!"

I tightly grasped the Melk kitchen knife in my hand, turned around and hurriedly left the room, hoping to escape from this horrible place as soon as possible. However, just as I left the room, a low and strange sound came from the sarcophagus.

One of the sarcophagi was slowly opening, and a stream of cold air was leaking out of it, accompanied by a creepy breath. Then, a dry and shriveled red finger stretched out from the sarcophagus, and its fingertips were covered with mottled lines. A pair of yellow eyes appeared in the dark sarcophagus, and the eyes flashed with a strange light.

Deep inside the huge food pyramid, I hurried through the intricate corridors. As I went deeper, I came to a room I had never set foot in.

The stone walls around the room are inlaid with colorful murals, which show Netero fighting against different beasts. In the murals, several Neteros are agile, holding weapons and engaging in fierce battles with various beasts.

One of the murals is particularly eye-catching, showing a fierce scene of several Neteros surrounding a sphinx. The sphinx's eyes reveal fear and sadness, and crystal tears flow from its eye sockets.

[Little knowledge: The Sphinx is located in the pyramid cemetery in Giza, Egypt.

Alias: Sphinx

Some say that the head of the Sphinx was shaped by the ancient Egyptian pharaoh Khafra according to his own image, while others believe that it was built by Regidev according to the image of his father Khufu.

However, my eyes did not stay on these murals for too long. My attention was firmly attracted by an open ancient book on a stone platform not far away. The yellowed pages exuded a mysterious atmosphere. I couldn't suppress my excitement, as if something was calling me over.

Without hesitation, I put the Melk kitchen knife in my backpack, and involuntarily quickened my pace towards the ancient book. When I reached the stone platform, I stopped.

I stood in front of the stone platform, lowered my head, and scanned the words on the page. My pupils dilated instantly, and I was deeply attracted by these words.

However, just as I was immersed in the mystery of the ancient book, a chill suddenly hit me from behind. I turned around suddenly and saw a thin, dry, red bird-shaped monster standing silently behind me. Its eyes flashed with fierce light, and its shriveled hands were opened, as if ready to attack.

At this time, on the other side——

A Lu took the lead and picked up a slug. He broke open the shell of the slug, revealing the pink flesh inside.

Ah Lu took a bite with great anticipation, but the next second, his facial expression suddenly became distorted. He chewed with great effort, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned down: "This thing is so hard, I can't eat it at all."

A Lu shook his head helplessly, looked at Zebra beside him, and asked curiously: "How is it, Zebra?"

Zebula didn't say anything. He squatted down and used his hands to flexibly peel off the shell of the bullet beast. As the shell gradually fell off, a piece of smooth and delicate meat appeared in front of Alu. The meat was tender and juicy, exuding a faint oily sheen. It was obvious that it was a rare delicacy.

Zebra looked at the pellet meat in his hand with satisfaction. He raised his head and put the whole piece of meat into his mouth. He did not chew it too much, but let the meat slowly melt in his mouth. He closed his eyes, as if he was enjoying a feast of delicious food.

After Zebra finished eating, he wiped the corners of his mouth gently, with a sly smile on his face. When Alu saw this, his anger was instantly ignited. He pointed at Zebra's face and asked loudly: "Ah - Zebra, you guy, was it... delicious just now? It must be delicious!"

Ah Lu held up the empty shell of the Bullet Beast in his hand, with an unpleasant expression on his face. He gritted his teeth and asked with a bit of reluctance in his tone: "Ugh, why? How can only one be delicious? I don't understand at all."

Zebula did not look back, he just left a proud back view to Alu, and then strode forward. Although Alu had complaints, he also knew that it was all his bad luck, so he could only follow him silently.

Zebra and Alu stood on a multi-story staircase platform. They both lowered their heads and looked down. They saw the intricate staircases below intertwined with each other, connecting the entrances of each level. The staircases formed a maze-like scene. This complex structure made people feel dizzy and they could get lost in it if they were not careful.

There were several beasts standing on the stairs, and it was obvious that they had noticed the uninvited guests of Zebra and Alu. So it opened its bloody mouth, revealing its sharp fangs, and roared at the two of them, warning them not to get close.

Zebula and Alu stared at the beast in front of them, their eyes flashing with greed, as if they had seen the delicacy they had dreamed of. Their mouths couldn't help but drool, as if they had already tasted the delicious taste.

Zebula and Alu didn't waste any time talking and attacked one of the beasts without hesitation. Their actions were so swift that the beast had no chance to fight back. Before long, the beast fell to the ground and became their meal.
