After killing a demonized creature, the body must be completely burned to prevent other demons from eating it and becoming new demonized creatures.
Yan Luo chopped down the trees that had fallen on the demon goat, which could be used as fuel to burn the body.
Although the freshly felled trees were still full of moisture and difficult to ignite.
However, there are always more solutions than difficulties, Yan Luo and the others had brought quite a few high-temperature torches with them from Blue Star.
They took out the gas canisters from the torches, threw them around the demon goat's body, and then fired at them from a distance, causing flames to rise up and burn the trees covering the body.
It didn't take long before the trees caught fire.
"Just leave it be now," Julia looked at the blazing fire and breathed a sigh of relief.
With fire of this level, there's no way a forest fire could start; it won't burn for long before going out on its own.
Often, when elves encounter and kill demonized creatures, they use similar methods to destroy the bodies.
However, elves tend to be very patient, thoroughly burning the demonized bodies to ashes piece by piece.
But when there's no other choice, like Yan Luo's group of humans, igniting a large fire in a short time to completely destroy the demon goat's body with high temperatures isn't a bad way.
After one last glance, Julia climbed into the cab of the lead truck and continued to lead the way.
Yan Luo returned to the second truck's cab, opened his Space Box, and placed a piece of meat, several scales, and a bone inside.
The truck driver raised an eyebrow, "This is..."
Yan Luo replied, "For research purposes back home."
His caution eventually outweighed curiosity; Yan Luo didn't dare challenge his stomach with demonized flesh.
However, demonized creatures don't exist on Blue Star, so Yan Luo thought these samples might have research value for Sasa, and secretly collected some as souvenirs for her.
After dealing with the demon goat, Yan Luo and his group encountered no more City-breaking Level demons and smoothly arrived at the next city.
The lush forest disappeared behind them as the three trucks left and came to a vast plain.
Rolling hills and rivers cutting across the open fields divided the land, with verdant meadows spreading across the plains, delightful to behold.
The second truck's driver connected his personal terminal to the vehicle radio and started playing relaxing music; Julia couldn't help but glance.
Even Yan Luo, sitting beside her with arms crossed, couldn't help tapping his finger to the rhythm.
Embraced by the light atmosphere, the three trucks arrived at another Elf City.
The city named 'Mayin' was situated on a river islet where three rivers converged; the bridges connecting the shores hidden under the water, rising at fixed times each day.
Besides that, the only option was to call the city's defense team; those responsible for city defenses have the authority to lift the bridges from the river.
Though the river islet seemed barren, like Gass City, modern elven cities are covered by barriers.
Elves may have long forgotten the times when they could live freely on the land, as have Blue Star People, and many children and teens no longer care about the world outside cities, since from birth, they've lived cities relatively isolated from each other.
Compared to Blue Star, the Elf World remains connected to the Abyss, likely having forgotten the times of freedom to roam the wild.
At least, Julia showed no surprise or bewilderment about 'cities must be hidden under barriers.'
Julia took out an instrument resembling a flute, placing it to her lips and playing.
According to her, only Intercity Messengers can possess this instrument, and the Lord temporarily granted Julia the role of 'Intercity Messenger' until she returns to Gass City when the instrument will be recalled.
After a while, the underwater bridge did not rise; instead, an elf sailed over, looked at the trucks, and asked Julia what was going on.
Julia handed him the introduction letter from the Lord of Gass City.
Upon reading the letter, the elf exclaimed, "Humans?"
Julia nodded, "Yes, humans have returned to our world, and they've already engaged with Gass City multiple times, establishing trade relations. However, the goods they brought were so numerous that Gass City couldn't consume them all, so the Lord wrote an introduction letter hoping Mayin City and other cities might accept their goods.
"Following the introduction letter is a list of goods, detailing their uses. I hope you can pass the letter and list to the Lord of Mayin City for her consideration."
The elf pondered for a moment, taking the introduction letter and list back to report.
Next, Yan Luo and his group just had to wait.
Yan Luo never liked idle waiting, so while the three truck drivers set up a local network to play cards online, he left the truck and went hunting in the wild.
Since the response from Mayin City's elven might come soon, Julia couldn't leave and had to wait by the trucks.
Feeling she had no common topics with the drivers, Julia exited the cab, climbed onto the roof, and took out ordinary arrows from her quiver, carving runes for enchanting.
No one knew how much time passed, but Yan Luo returned with a wild bull that measured 2.5 meters at the shoulder, and began to butcher it by the river.
Julia jumped down from the truck roof, watched with interest from behind, occasionally offering tips on his somewhat clumsy butchering skills.
Soon, Yan Luo completely dismantled the bull's carcass.
He and Julia built a fire by the river; seeing this, the three truck drivers stopped playing cards and gathered around them.
Yan Luo was generous, giving the newly obtained bull meat to the drivers for grilling themselves.
Previously, Li Xinyue had given Yan Luo plenty of spices, now it was perfect for grilling meat.
Aroma gradually filled the air, Julia was curious about the spices Yan Luo used, and with permission, sprinkled some on her grilled meat.
Once the beef was cooked, she tasted some, and immediately her eyes brightened.
"Are there more spices?" Julia pointed towards the trucks.
Yan Luo nodded, "Bao Han Company delivered spices, but Gass City bought them all; however, those brought by Pension Association are still in the truck."
Julia said, "Alright... I'll buy more once we return to Gass City."
Just then, a small boat arrived at the shore, and the elf piloting it jumped into the water, pulling the boat ashore.
His nose twitched catching the scent of the beef in Yan Luo's hand.
"Would you like to try?" Julia raised her grilled meat offering with a smile.
Samos gulped, stepping forward hesitantly, "Can I?"
"Yes," Yan Luo said simply.
Receiving consent, Samos darted forward asking Julia how to grill the meat like hers for the enticing aroma.
Julia pointed towards the spices Yan Luo had set aside, while Yan Luo handed a freshly grilled piece to Samos.
Samos took it, blew off the heat, and bit down immediately.
"Ugh!"
The spicy flavor burst upon entry, making Samos's eyes widen spontaneously.
Unable to handle the spiciness, but reluctant to spit out the grilled meat, he chewed a few times before forcing it down, running toward the river to drink water.
"Phew!"
After a few sips, Samos barely suppressed the tongue's heat, standing up and returning to the fire.
"Can you really eat this spicy?"
Elves with thousands of years of history, their culinary culture flourished, naturally known for spicy flavors.
Clutching the grilled meat, Samos wanted to put it down but couldn't bear to.
After all, it really was delicious!
