554 Chapter 390: The Delightful Black Sorbet Ice Cream [2/3]
When it was hot like a husky, a bowl of Black Sorbet ice cream could instantly relieve the heat… Just thinking about it, he knew he wouldn’t have to worry about the market of this delicacy!
Compared to this characteristic that could relieve heat, the one-star level and the effect of recovering 20% of stamina were secondary.
Excitement flushed at the young man’s face at Richard’s praise.
Karu smiled brightly.
“Lord, do we need to increase the Black Sorbet ice cream?”
“Increase production. Use as much force as you can.”
Richard’s smile didn’t fade, but he suddenly thought of something and asked.
“How much is the production cost of each bowl of Black Sorbet?”
Karu looked at the young man.
“Lord, Bi Qi was the one who led the research and developed Black Sorbet. I would summon Bi Qi to report to you.”
The young man suppressed his excitement and spoke in a trembled voice when he saw Richard nod.
“City Lord, the primary raw material for the Black Sorbet is the magic plant you brought back from the underground-frost grass.
“This magic plant has unique magic properties. Its outside stalk doesn’t appear unique but has an invisible ice magic power hidden inside. It will freeze those who touch it.
“It can preserve that ice magic power if one has handled it well.
“One could only make Black Sorbet ice cream with the frost grass as the core and 30 other ordinary plants through 12 processes such as grinding, filtering, and steaming.”
The young man momentarily paused before he continued.
“Frost grass is the main ingredient of the Black Sorbet ice cream, but we don’t know the value of this magical plant…”
Richard had an idea.
The wealth of the underground world was more complex than it seemed.
He still had to increase the intensity of development. Not only did he have to obtain superficial benefits, but he also had to collect rare plants and unique animals. It couldn’t be useless.
He immediately gave the order after he regained his senses.
“Call Rand Augustus over. At the same time, go to the food workshop and get the frost grass.”
“Yes.”
Not long after, Rand, the old dwarf, entered the hall with a perturbed expression.
Richard didn’t waste any time and handed him the frost grass he just obtained.
“Rand, do you recognize this magical plant?”
The old dwarf reached out and took it. He only glanced at it briefly before he raised his head.
He was sparingly puzzled.
“Lord Ruler, this is frost grass. It grows near swamps and water sources. It contains a special magical energy that can make one feel cold when touched… Other than that, it doesn’t seem to be of any use.”
Richard’s interest grew.
“Is this kind of magic plant rare underground?”
The old dwarf had a strange expression.
“Rare? In the underground world, it could be everywhere where there is water. There would be… Great Ruler, do you need the frost grass for something?”
“Where there is water everywhere?”
Richard’s expression was subtle.
He shook his head and retracted his thoughts. He reached out to gesture at the bowl on the tray.
“Try the latest top-notch delicacy the food workshop had developed–Black Sorbet.”
The old dwarf looked at the black, jelly-like substance. He still quickly took a bite, although he was sparingly hesitant.
His body trembled when the Black Sorbet ice cream entered his mouth.
He revealed a delighted expression… It was too cool.
He couldn’t help but take a few more bites. In the end, after the bottom of the bowl was empty, he couldn’t bear to put the spoon down.
He looked at Richard in surprise.
“Lord Ruler, what kind of delicacy is this? It’s simply too delicious. That ice-cold aura is simply mesmerizing…”
Although there was a statue of an ice elf and the temperature in Twilight City remained constant, a desert was still a desert. It was still unbearably hot outside the city.
The feeling of cooling down his entire body was simply irresistible in this hot and humid environment.
Halfway through his sentence, the old dwarf looked at the frost grass in his hand and immediately came to a realization.
“I didn’t expect that one could create a delicacy from an ordinary magical plant…”
Richard looked at the man’s amazed expression and suddenly had an idea.
“Rand, all the dwarves will temporarily join the food workshop. We’ll look for special magical plants from the underground world for the food workshop to try and develop new food.”
These dwarves were not strong enough before the unsealing of the blood in their bodies.
He might make the best use of it since that was the case.
Even if the other party did not have Inherited Knowledge, he would still have experience in this area since he has lived in the underground world for so long.
Richard looked at the young man who held the tray after he said that.
“Bi Qi, you’ve done well this time. The Black Sorbet is of great significance to Twilight City.
“You will continue to be in charge of the research and development work this time!”
Bi Qi was startled. This young man named was a B-rank lifestyle hero.
Richard knew after he asked Karu that Bi Qi had automatically become a hero unit a week ago. He was a rare talent.
“Other than that, you must collect recipes from the underworld and food with special effects and flavors.
“Find something valuable to improve and develop…”
The “Shining Era” was a world with magic. Plants had special effects, which turned the delicacy more creative.
For example, Black Sorbet ice cream was a unique specialty. On Planet Blue, cold air couldn’t cover his feet even if he ate ten ice cream sticks…
