Under the moonlit night, fires flickered, sending columns of smoke into the sky.

Leo Ray’s group of ten people, along with Penelope and her two companions, sat around the bonfire in the center of their territory.

Gazing at the mouth-watering dishes before him, Leo Ray couldn’t help but reveal a slightly surprised look.

There was a plate of pineapple sweet and sour pork, a plate of tomato scrambled eggs, accompanied by several large chunks of freshly baked coarse bread, as well as a colorful fruit platter.

The tableware consisted of pottery plates made from clay and a pair of polished wooden chopsticks.

Without a doubt, this was the first time he had seen dishes with such distinctive Summer Realm characteristics since his arrival to the other world.

As he looked at the dishes, Penelope spoke apologetically from the side, “I’m sorry, Master Leo, due to the lack of some seasonings, the taste may not be very good. Please forgive me.”

“It’s alright.” Leo Ray smiled faintly and took a bite of the tomato scrambled eggs. He then nodded in satisfaction.

It was a long-lost taste. Despite being slightly plain, the sweet and sour flavor was just right, overall quite excellent.

Moreover, he could clearly taste-

That the eggs used were not ordinary chicken eggs. They had a smoother texture and a faint fruity wood aroma, making them significantly unique.

Before every meal, Leo Ray-

As an assassin skilled in poison, Serena and Stella, as well as Gideon Black, a Dark Priest skilled in detoxification, would check the tableware and food.

In addition, after reaching the Tier 3 powerhouse level, Leo Ray’s physical abilities had already significantly improved.

Even if he were to suffer from food poisoning, he could expel it using his internal energy in the first instance.

Moreover, Leo Ray’s storage bracelet contained hundreds of priceless magic medicines that could neutralize all kinds of poisons.

Therefore, naturally, he didn’t need to worry about any food safety issues.

Soon after, Leo Ray tried a piece of the sweet and sour pork. After chewing it, he raised his eyebrows in satisfaction.

The pineapple’s sweetness and the meat’s aroma melded together perfectly in his mouth. The juicy and tender meat also had the same fruity wood aroma he tasted in the eggs earlier.

It seemed that both the meat and eggs in these dishes came from the same magical beast or animal.

“Master Leo, these meat and eggs come from a Tier 1 magical beast called Blue Wing Fire Pheasant. The pineapples and tomatoes used in the dishes were freshly picked from the surrounding area,” Penelope quickly explained when she saw Leo Ray’s satisfied expression.

“Very good, the taste is excellent,” Leo Ray said with a faint smile, nodding in approval.

All in all, being able to taste the flavors reminiscent of his hometown after so long made him feel nostalgic.

At this moment, Leo Ray inadvertently observed-

Compared to his group, Penelope and her companions were wolfing down the food. The scene resembled his group being the hosts, treating their guests to delicious dishes.

“My lord, while I was helping earlier, I noticed that they seem to have taken out all of their flour and seasonings to entertain us,” Scarlett whispered to Leo Ray as she brought over an empty plate. She then snatched a piece of meat from Bianca White’s plate when she wasn’t looking.

“It seems that Penelope obtained these flours and seasonings from the Trading Center, right?” Leo Ray pondered upon hearing this.

Undoubtedly, for most lords-

At this stage, seasonings and staple foods like flour were extremely scarce.

Only a few lords with territories near human towns had the chance to obtain them, like Solomon Rue and Sylvia Moore had before.As a result, the corresponding price is naturally not low, often requiring a large amount of wood and stone materials and other basic resources to exchange.

Of course, for Leo Ray, who already owns the entire Cyan Town and is quite wealthy, this is not even an issue.

Realizing this, Leo Ray slightly curled his lips, murmuring secretly in his heart, “Well, I never intended to freeload anyways, not to mention having the long-missed taste of the Summer Realm.”

With this in mind, Leo Ray, who had thrown the last bite of coarse bread into his mouth, stood up and stretched his limbs.

Immediately, with a hint of mental activity, six wooden crates of varying sizes appeared in front of everyone all of a sudden.

“Here are 500 kilograms of elf rice and a box of seasoning, just to cover the cost of tonight’s dinner,” Leo Ray said with a faint smile as he noticed Penelope and the others’ astonished looks.

These supplies were just a small part of what Leo Ray, driven by survival, had readily stored with him.

Currently, there were over 10,000 kilograms of elf rice in his territory, and there were also several thousand kilograms in his storage bracelet.

Aside from the half-elf barrier for expanding food planting areas.

Under his guidance, Linda, Mason Banks, Rhizoma Drynariae, and others, using Sanders’ Trading Conference and Cyan Town, which was already serving as a trading hub for the surrounding regions, had also secretly hoarded large amounts of food and other essential supplies.

Therefore, these few hundred kilograms of elf rice, to Leo Ray, at most, would be just a drop in the bucket.

“Rice?! 500 kilograms?! And a box of seasoning?!”

On the other side, Penelope’s delicate face once again revealed an unrestrained ecstatic look, hardly believing her own eyes.

Having survived in the wilderness for so long, she naturally knew the importance of food.

Undoubtedly, compared to the coarse bread she could occasionally eat before, these 500 kilograms of rice were simply an unparalleled vast wealth!

At the same time, including Lana and Aurora, the other subordinates within the territory also showed excited expressions.

One after another, they cast reverent gazes at Leo Ray, whose face was indifferent, surrounded by many powerful people.

In such an atmosphere of continuous gratitude from Penelope, Leo Ray began the next topic.

“Alright, let’s talk about business,” said Leo Ray, nodding to Penelope and his tone becoming more formal. “As far as I know, the three powerhouses who died in the ruins before belonged to a powerful and mysterious organization.”

With that said, Leo Ray continued, his face serious, “Therefore, once their people come again, be sure to inform me as soon as possible.”

“Don’t worry, Master Leo,” Penelope said, her beautiful face full of solemnity, heavy nodding after a brief moment of astonishment.

No doubt, to these native forces, anotherworldly lords were naturally antagonistic existences.

Adding to that, the target of the other side was the ruins next to their territory, so the answer was self-evident.

At this moment, Penelope understood clearly.

If the mysterious organization sends powerful people again,

Then, what awaits her would undoubtedly be a disaster.

And the only one who could change this would be the indifferent-looking young man in front of her.

With this in mind, Penelope took a deep breath and spoke to Leo Ray, “Master Leo, as you may have noticed, due to the peculiarities of my talent, I have been fortunate enough to recruit Aurora as a Tier 2 subordinate.”

As she spoke, Penelope clenched the collar of her clothes and continued, “If my talent could be of help to Master Leo, would Master Leo consider helping me develop a little faster, in order to better resist the threats that may come?”

On the other side, Leo Ray slightly raised an eyebrow, smiling faintly, and said,

“I would like to hear more..”
