Ding Yumian and Wei Rong had already gone into the bunker. They were relieved to see the people were safe and sound.

However, they soon noticed many of the elderly giving the young ones their shares of the dried food, leaving the elders dispirited and starving. They felt helpless and sorry for the people.

“I swear I’m going to make Elder Yao Xin pay for this. This is unacceptable!” Wei Rong snarled.

Everyone was enduring the hardships, waiting for help to arrive. They were trying their best to suppress their fear and despair, but the elder of the Hunter Union did not dare send food because he was too scared of dying!

“Sir, we should let other places know the situation here. Perhaps some people might be willing to help us,” Ding Yumian suggested.

Wei Rong let out a sigh. He realized that even if he were to confront Elder Yao Xin, he would never change the man’s selfish personality.

“Excuse me, please give me some space in the center!” Mo Fan’s voice appeared out of nowhere. It gave the people nearby a huge fright.

Mo Fan had suddenly appeared. Even if he were using the Shadow Element, the way he showed up out of nowhere was unbelievable.

The others looked at Mo Fan and noticed the ripples of the Space Element. He seemed to have Blinked into the bunker. No wonder he did not alert anyone!

“What is it for?” the woman with a ponytail asked.

“Don’t we need a place to put the food?” Mo Fan asked.

“Is there something to eat?!” a member of the Hunter Group exclaimed excitedly, his eyes glittering.

They were all starving!

Space Bracelets were extremely rare. They could not possibly afford to buy them with their wages. Mo Fan’s Space Bracelet did not have a huge capacity, either. The food he carried was only enough for himself.

“Mm, please move away from this area. Yes, a little more please. You over there, if you don’t move from that spot, you will be smacked to death by a tail… alright, that should do!”

Mo Fan told the people to clear a huge space before he suddenly snapped his fingers.

Pa!

Silver lights appeared in front of Mo Fan and drew special connected planes.

The silver planes eventually turned into an enclosed blurred area. Something huge was taking shape in it.

“Teleportation?” The people were astounded.

Wei Rong and Ding Yumian did not expect Mo Fan’s Space Element to be so powerful that he could teleport objects into the bunker.

A pleasant aroma was spreading through the air before the object even took shape. The people were excited.

They thought they were able to resist the urge, but they could not help but drool after smelling the pleasant aroma.

“It smells so good. Mother, someone is grilling food!”

“I’m so hungry…”

“It’s the smell of grilled fish!”

The people of Bing Town were restless. It was irresistible smelling something nice when they were all starving.

Wei Rong, Ding Yumian, Ma Yong, and the woman with a ponytail were stunned. They watched the open space being filled with a huge grilled fish with a strong aroma!

Is it a whale? How is it so big?

“Why does it look a little familiar?” Wei Rong stared at the fish carefully.

When he saw where the fish’s bones were, his eyes widened in disbelief!

Holy crap! Isn’t this a Swallowing Sea Bass?

Isn’t this the reason why the Hunter Union is afraid to transport food to us?

Why is it cooked?

Why is its outside crisp and its insides tender?

“Mo Fan, why…why did you cook a sea monster?” Wei Rong was so shocked that he was stammering.

“Don’t worry, its flesh is very tasty. Even the elderly can eat it. Zhang Zhuo already tried it. It’s not poisonous,” Mo Fan assured him.

“That’s not the problem… they…they are sea monsters!” Wei Rong yelled at him.

Ma Yong and the rest of the City Hunters looked at Mo Fan like he was a monster!

He was not human.

Most people did not even have time to run when they saw a sea monster.

However, this man had grilled a sea monster, and it even gave off such a nice aroma!

The people completely forgot how terrifying the sea monsters were. They only had a single thought now: eat the sea monster!

“Let’s not waste any time. Get everyone to line up and get their share of food!” Mo Fan just smiled.

“So this is the buffet you mentioned?”

“Mm, the people have had a hard time. They are understanding in such a grim situation, too. They deserve to have a seafood buffet,” Mo Fan grinned.

“That’s true…” Wei Rong agreed.

The people do deserve a treat, but aren’t you overdoing it?

What about the sea monsters’ dignity? You have grilled their brave warriors. Have you ever considered their feelings?

——

One of the perks of China was the people were rarely picky about what they ate, nor did they have a lot of taboos. They had gone through a lot of hardships to be satisfied with the food they had, unlike many foreigners.

Little Flame Belle’s grilling skills had rapidly improved, too.

The truck-sized Swallowing Sea Bass soon only had its bones left.

Even the bones were crispy. Some people who did not get to eat its flesh were hoping they could get the bones.

“That won’t be necessary. I have prepared more than one. It’s supposed to be a buffet! Everyone is going to be fed!” Mo Fan proclaimed.

Mo Fan snapped his fingers, signaling Little Flame Belle to serve the second Devouring Sea Bass. Hot air was still rising from its golden crispy surface. The City Hunters, Wei Rong, and Ding Yumian were still starving.

“Eat it, what are you all waiting for? There are still eight of them outside! If that isn’t enough, I can just hunt a few more of them. Just give me some time!” Mo Fan urged them.

The aroma of the grilled fish filled the bunker. The people were overjoyed to be able to enjoy great food in the enclosed environment. They were no longer afraid after they solved the problem of the food!

“Uh, sir, I can help with the seasoning. The quality of its flesh is great. We shouldn’t waste such a high-quality ingredient. I used to own a grilled fish shop. I may be able to improve its taste!” a middle-aged man volunteered to help.

“That’s great. I’m far from a professional. I’m not good at seasoning them!” Mo Fan nodded.

“Just send the grilled fish over and I’ll season them!” the man said.

“Sure!”
