Chapter 1824: I Am Inculcating The Correct Money Sense In My Disciple
Mag had roughly understood the situation. It seemed like this gang of people had some illusions after having the octopus tentacles, and they saw something good in the illusions.
If it had been the dirty kind of good things, they would definitely not have gathered here to ask for an explanation, as they would’ve been treated as perverts and dragged away.
Therefore, what they saw had to be the legendary Law.
The Law was a good thing. When a 10th-tier powerhouse reached his level, training alone would not help with advancing anymore. What he needed was to understand the Law.
Talented people would become stronger easily. He was an example.
Those with normal talents could only fight with their age and experiences.
Others might take a year to understand a Law, while you took three years to understand one Law. However, others could only live to 100 years old, while you could live to 3000 years old.
Therefore, as long as you lived to 101 years old, you defeated him.
And once you lived to 3000 years old, his descendants would never defeat you.
Unless one of them was very talented, like Mag Alex.
The world was cruel and real like that.
The giant dragons weren’t really talented. It was also not because they were hatched from eggs. It was just because they could live longer, and therefore they would have more top-tier powerhouses than the other races.
“System, what is this? Were the octopus tentacles not cleaned thoroughly, hence this effect? Would this result in them being enchanted?” Mag asked inside. If the Great Old Ones could control the 10th-tier powerhouses because of him, he would be a sinner.
“According to my analysis, there are two reasons for their illusions. Firstly, it was the host’s superb culinary skills that made their soul go into a relaxed mode. Secondly, it was the special effect brought about by the Great Old One’s tentacles. This had once been shown in the lab rat test. However, its effect on the lab rat was normal, the illusion only lasted for a very short amount of time, and it did not affect its eating. On top of that, it has also helped to increase appetite. Therefore, this was not raised.
“The Great Old Ones could live up to millions of years, and their genes were engraved with countless Laws which even it was unable to use. However, after cooking it, there was a certain percentage of chance that the consumer could realize it,” the System replied quickly.
“I see.” Mag was deep in thought. So that was what Krassu and the rest saw. They were the Laws ingrained in the Great Old Ones’ genes in their millions of years alive. There would be a certain percentage of chance that the consumer might be able to see the Laws.
These weren’t things that could directly make them become stronger, but they were what every 10th-tier powerhouse would desire.
The source of watching the Law up close only required 40 copper coins for one to watch it repeatedly for four times. Such happiness was simply unimaginable!
Mag understood it all, but would not say it out directly in case these people had nasty thoughts. Mag behaved as though he was a good restaurant owner who was trying to protect his restaurant and his reputation.
Louis also realized that this restaurant owner seemed a little daft. However, on second thought, he was merely an ordinary human. Understanding those Laws was too much to ask from him. Therefore, he asked his question in another way. “Then let me ask you, where did you get your octopus tentacles from?”
“Fished it out from the sea, of course. Would they grow on land?” Mag looked at Louis seriously. “Do you know a place where octopuses grow on land? It might lower my cost even more.”
Louis was speechless.
He did know a place with an octopus growing on land. It was in the Thunderstorm Mountains, 15 kilometers away from Chaos City.
But no one would dare to eat that.
“Alright, Louis, don’t keep questioning Boss Mag. He’s just a chef. How would he know all those things that you’re talking about? If you really want to experience it again, just come here every day and line up at the door. In any case, even if you know the answer, you won’t be able to replicate it,” Krassu interrupted Louis, who still wanted to probe.
Louis glanced at Mag, and thought that Krassu made sense. Talking to Mag was like talking to a horse. It made him mentally tired and frustrated.
“Alright, then, I’ll come back again at night.” Louis nodded. He looked at Mag, smiled, and then raised his thumb. “Boss, you make wonderful food.”
After saying that, he left.
Seeing that Mag knew nothing, the other powerhouses left, and only Krassu and Urien were left behind.
“Masters, is there anything else? Do you want to come in for a cup of tea?” Master looked at the two old men, and became nicer. After all, they were Amy’s teachers, and the two elders had always been looking after him and Amy.
“No need for tea. Boss Mag, I just want to ask about a few days ago. I was rather busy, and there were two classes that I had yet to make up for Amy. Could you help me ask her if she wants to go to class today?” Krassu said in a humble tone with a chuckle.
Urien let out a cough, and quickly added, “I… I still have one lesson.”
“Isn’t it already the holidays? Why are there still lessons? No! I’m not going for lessons!” Amy suddenly peeked her head out from behind Mag, and looked at Urien and Krassu as she said coquettishly, “Masters, why don’t both of you just go home and play. We’ll all have our holidays, alright?”
The moment Amy acted coquettishly, the two old men’s hearts melted.
“Alright, we’ll talk about it next time.” Urien nodded.
“Alright, alright, alright. We’ll not have class. Little Amy can play at home.” Krassu shook his head with a smile. After that, he paused for a while, and said, “But we have to set off to Rodu in three days’ time. I’m bringing you over to compete.”
“Rodu? Compete?” Amy was puzzled.
“Yes. It’s a magic caster competition. But I’m just bringing you there to gain some experience and see how amateurish those magic casters outside are.” Krassu nodded.
“If you go, you’ll have to get number one. If you don’t, just don’t go.” Urien glanced at Krassu, and said sarcastically, “You just want to let Little Amy see how those people at the Magus Tower fawn over you.”
“Why? Are you envious?” Krassu chuckled. He was not at all angry.
“Do I get a reward for getting the first place?” Amy asked curiously.
“Of course. If you get first place, you’ll get a golden-purple magic stone, and can even get a job in the Magus Tower, or become the disciple of the Magus Tower Elders.” Krassu nodded with a smile.
“Master is giving you these three golden-purple magic stones.” Urien pulled out three shining golden-purple magic stones from his storage ring, and passed it to Amy. He smilingly said, “As for the Magus Tower Elders, none of them can defeat me.”
Krassu exclaimed, “Urien, you can’t do this!”
“I am inculcating the correct money sense in my disciple,” Urien said matter-of-factly.
