Chapter 83 Reciprocity

 The next day there was an accident in the company.

 The reason was that a woman came over early in the morning and pulled up a promotional display stand downstairs, which read, "Thank you Wu XX for taking care of my husband Fang

Wu XX is a female employee of Lu Yao’s company. As soon as she saw the display stand, she turned around and ran away. As a result, she was caught by the other party and kept being scolded.

This incident caused people in the whole building to stop and watch the excitement. Boss Huang originally wanted to persuade them to resolve the matter privately, but instead he was dragged into the war and became disgraced.

Lu Yao was also standing by the window eating melon.

The intruder was fierce, causing trouble all the way from downstairs to the company, killing everyone in the office.

 In the end, Boss Huang simply gave everyone a half-day off and chose to avoid his influence.

Lu Yao was overjoyed and immediately rode his bike home.

 …

  He had been tinkering with [Egil's Fire] last night and couldn't put it down for this heavy fire weapon.

In this fragmented world, the only long-range firepower Lu Yao had before was [Miracle], which could theoretically be released instantly in any corner of the world.

But miracles also have drawbacks.

 The first thing is to consume faith.

Then Lu Yao has to operate it himself. If the target is a high-speed moving individual, skills and micro-management are also required.

　　　【Egil's Fire】is different. It is a long-range killer weapon that does not require the support of faith. It can bomb in a range and cover up to one screen, making the enemy unable to hide.

 Although it currently only has 4 rounds of ammunition, its power is considerable.

During Lu Yao's previous live-fire exercise, as soon as [Egil's Fire] was fired, the resulting meteorite rain washed the ground and sank a small island.

Lu Yao also understood how powerful the underwater walkers were back then.

Just imagine.

 The lord of the deep sea turned into a sea fortress and ghosts came and went in the sea. It can dive to the deep sea at any time, hibernate under the sea at a faster speed, and surface for a surprise attack when necessary.

The Deep Sea Lord has excellent endurance in the ocean, has its own health recovery, and can recruit various marine creatures to strengthen itself when necessary.

 Once the wonder [Aegir's Fire] is installed on the island on its back, it will become even more heavyweight.

 The deep sea lords patrolling the sea, once they find any threat, they can use [Egil's Fire] to target and carry out a range of meteorite bombing.

If the opponent dives underwater, it will play into the hands of the Deep Sea Lord, and underwater combat is also its home field.

 The combination of [Lord of the Deep Sea] and [Fire of Aegir] is equivalent to maritime supremacy.

Lu Yao decided to enter [Black Abyss] next time and try it out with [Egil's Fire] to see how it works in actual combat.

But for now he is prepared to take it a little slow.

There have been too many fights in the past two weeks, and staying up late makes him a little overwhelmed.

 The gods also need a balance between work and rest.

 …

Lu Yao asked Xiaohuo to make a cup of scented tea, and then poured a basin of steaming foot-washing water.

When the weather is cold, drink some hot tea and soak your feet, it will be very comfortable.

After finishing the work, Lu Yao lay face down on the bed and said, "Small fire, turn on the fire."

"yes."

The cactus carefully climbed up Lu Yao's back, and pinched his shoulders with its slender green arms. It asked humbly and cautiously: "Lord God, what do you think of the strength?"

 “It’s okay. I’ll pinch my neck and waist too.”

"clear."

After many trainings by Lu Yao, the Cactus attendant has become familiar with the massage, and has mastered the priorities just right.

Lu Yao lay on the bed and squinted his eyes comfortably.

 Physical fatigue is relieved and relaxed under massage.

 Now is the time to enjoy.

 Xiao Huo massaged Lu Yao's shoulders, waist and legs to relax him, making him feel comfortable all over, and the previous fatigue suddenly disappeared.

 I'm in a good mood, so I'll work overtime.

 Lu Yao got up and sat in front of the computer, returning his attention to the simulator.

 At this time, there is an additional reminder on the screen.

　　【The Garlic Tribe offered sacrifices. 】

 Are there any sacrifices?

 Lu Yao clicked on the temple.

 【Sacrifice】A rough yellow-brown pottery cup appeared in the trough.

 …

 【Cup of Eternity】: Faith +1/hour.

 As long as the cup is filled with water, it will turn into sweet wine.

 …

Lu Yao was a little surprised.

  You can have a drink tonight.

 After a while, the [Eternal Cup] appeared on the computer table.

 It is a simple-looking pottery cup with no patterns on the surface. It looks like a semi-finished pottery made by a novice.

Lu Yao tried to pour hot water from the kettle.

As soon as the hot water enters the sustainable cup, it cools down quickly. The heat quickly disappears, and circular ripples appear on the surface of the water in the cup.

 After a few seconds, the ripples disappeared and the water in the cup returned to calm.

Lu Yao raised the pottery cup, brought it to his nose and took a sniff.

 It does have a faint smell of alcohol.

 It seems to have turned into wine?

Lu Yao put the cup down and looked at the cactus beside him: "Xiaohuo, you try the drink first. See if there is any problem."

 “Yes, Lord God.”

The cactus picked up the pottery cup and pointed the mouth of the cup at his head. The transparent liquid flowed out of the cup and poured on the prickly pear body. The liquid melted into the cactus as soon as it touched it, without any splashing.

It's body swayed a little, almost becoming unsteady.

Xiao Huo tried his best to stand upright, then prostrated with his arms and kneeled on the ground respectfully: "Lord God, this is indeed wine. It is not poisonous and can be drunk."

Lu Yao picked up the pottery cup and took a sip.

 The taste is not spicy, and the alcoholic taste is also very light. The alcohol content is lower than that of beer, and it is more like an alcoholic beverage.

 It is because the wine capacity of Prickly Pear is too poor, not that the wine is too strong.

The wine brewed by the Everlasting Cup has a unique sweetness, which reminds Lu Yao of the well water he drank in his hometown in the mountains when he was a child. Moreover, this wine is extremely clear, without any impurities, and has a light floral and fruity aroma.

Unconsciously, Lu Yao drank the glass of wine.

 He made another glass with water and tasted it slowly.

It wasn’t until he had three more cups that Lu Yao felt bloated due to drinking too much water in one go.

 He personally tried it and made a rigorous assessment.

 This wine is normal.

 Neither poisoning people nor strengthening their health.

It has only one advantage: it tastes good.

 Just like happy water.

Lu Yao liked this sacrifice.

 He is a person who gives me a foot and I respect you a foot.

Since the tribesmen have offered sacrifices, the **** himself must also express his gratitude.

 Hours should be reciprocated. Gods should not be too stingy.

Lu Yao was thinking seriously while drinking sweet wine.

 Smoking and drinking don’t leave home, why don’t you give them some cigarettes?

 He immediately gave up the idea.

Tobacco is not very good for little people at this stage...it is too easy to become addicted.

Lu Yao walked around the house with his hands behind his back.

 Suddenly, an inspiration flashed in his mind.

 There is something that is suitable.

To be on the safe side, Lu Yao immediately searched on the Internet. After reading a large number of interpretations and data from authoritative platforms, he determined that his idea was basically correct.

 Then he put on his socks and shoes, put on his coat and went straight to the vegetable market.

 Half an hour later, Lu Yao came back with a bag of fresh edamame. He washed most of the edamame and threw it into the pot. He added dried chili peppers, star anise, Sichuan peppercorns and salt to marinate the edamame, and then kept it under low heat.

 The other part was introduced into the temple by him.

Soybeans are the strategic-level [gift] given by Lu Yao after careful consideration.
