Chapter 1073: 0670 Cooking a Special Meal

Since the badge system judged that he had obtained the intelligence and gave a prompt that his resistance had increased, Director Taurus's guess was correct: the Star Palace does indeed affect the user's "inclination".

Looking at Director Taurus, who had a kind expression in front of him, Li Ang nodded vigorously and then thanked her sincerely.

"I have remembered it, thank you for the reminder, Lord Taurus."

"Hehe, no need to be so formal."

After smiling kindly, Director Taurus said gently:

"At my age, I'm old enough to be your grandmother. For a little guy like you, I have always looked at you as my own child. And I am about to step down as Director, so don't call me 'Lord' or anything like that anymore; it sounds quite distant."

"Ah, okay!"

After responding, Li Ang and the red-haired Director couldn't help but look at each other, and then simultaneously saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

Compared to before, after ascending the palace, Lord Taurus seemed to have become less serious and much more cheerful and easygoing... So is it because she is about to step down and start separating from the Star Palace, so the influence she receives has decreased?

"By the way, Olivia."

While Li Ang and the red-haired Director were exchanging glances, Director Taurus suddenly became serious and said earnestly:

"Andrew asked me to tell you and Li Ang that he feels very sorry for choosing to sacrifice you when Aquarius attacked your branch, and not coming to support you as promised."

Tsk...

Upon hearing Director Taurus's words, the red-haired Director and Li Ang's mouths couldn't help but curl slightly. While remaining calm on the surface, a look of disgust appeared in their eyes simultaneously.

Such a big thing, and it's over with just an apology? And he didn't even come to apologize himself, but had to have Director Taurus relay it? Is this the attitude of an apology? That old guy has no sincerity at all...

"As compensation, he will go to the God of Fine Wine to make a deal and get you a batch of the top-quality wine. From now on, a bottle will be sent every week until he dies."

Hiss...

"As for Li Ang, besides teaching you the Sagittarius secret art wholeheartedly, he also sacrificed his lifespan to use two wish-type anomalous objects to help you find the locations of the remaining parts of that great demon. It is estimated that it won't be long before you can gather them all."

Ah, this...

"And besides you two, the other members of the branch also have compensation, at the worst, an anomalous object that is suitable... How about it? Are you satisfied with this compensation?"

"Oh my! What compensation!"

After sucking the corner of her mouth, the red-haired Director waved her hand with a beaming smile:

"Although the way things were done was indeed not very authentic, Lord Sagittarius had no selfish motives, so it is understandable, understandable!"

"Indeed, we have already felt the sincerity of Lord Sagittarius's apology."

You two are really...

Looking at the two people in front of him whose attitudes had suddenly reversed, Director Taurus couldn't help but shake his head and said sternly:

"Since you are satisfied, I won't defend Andrew anymore. But I still hope you know that part of the reason he made that choice was indeed because he was influenced by the Star Palace.

And his application to replace Cancer and go to the Abyss to suppress demons is also because he hopes to correct those not-so-good influences through this process. So I hope you don't hold too much of a grudge against him... Um... The matter about Andrew is finished, now it's your turn."

When she said this, Director Taurus's face became gentle again, and she joked with Li Ang with a smile:

"As a talent who was selected by five palaces at the same time and will start as one of the twelve Directors in the future, I must take advantage of the fact that you haven't become a big shot yet and curry favor with you... It just so happens that I have time now. Li Ang, do you want to accept my guidance first and learn the anomalous forging secret art of the Taurus Palace from me?"

This... this is something I can't ask for more!

Hehe, although he looks a bit led astray by Olivia, he is still a good child in essence.

Looking at Li Ang, who agreed without hesitation and was waiting expectantly for "class", Director Taurus, with a smile in his eyes, waved his hand to create a wide table, took out a large amount of materials for practice, and called out:

"Come on, try forging with these first, let me see how much progress you have made!"

"Okay!"

Under Director Taurus's encouraging gaze, Li Ang, as a secret art genius "certified by five palaces", greatly increased his confidence. He took out a large iron pot from the mirror world, set it up, and then took out two old thermos bottles, starting to pour water into the pot ton by ton.

Huh? This method, which is more than rough, is completely messing around... Why does it look a bit familiar?

Looking at the rusty iron pot Li Ang took out, Director Taurus, who was preparing to take out her own forging tools, couldn't help but freeze slightly, and then asked tentatively:

"Li Ang, what's going on with this pot of yours?"

"It was taught by the third-generation Director!"

Although that old man with a square head had threatened him not to tell anyone about learning forging from him.

But Director Taurus was not a big mouth, and even if he didn't say it, she should be able to see it. Li Ang didn't hide it, but while stirring the water in the iron pot, he relayed:

"Previously, Lord Third Generation told me that there is no need to care too much about the quality of the forging tools, because the source of the anomaly is emotion, obsession, and expectation. In the final analysis, it is the power of the heart, and the heart has no 'standard answer'.

So as long as the heart for forging is strong enough and the materials used can meet the standard, then even with a large iron pot and boiled water, one can forge the top-level anomalous objects!"

Emotion, heart, obsession... That damn old... senior, started lecturing his set of things that ruin people again? And even fooled Li Ang?

After hearing the absurd philosophy Li Ang stated with certainty, even someone as good-tempered as Director Taurus couldn't help but have blue veins jumping on her forehead. She then forced a smile and said:

"That... is also fine. Anyway, we haven't started formal learning yet. You forge one first and let me see your progress."

"Okay!"

After rummaging through the materials on the table and finding two 【Demon】-type materials he was best at, feeling the kind intimacy of the human-material unity, Li Ang, the genius, took a deep breath and said confidently:

"I actually have a premonition that this time it might really work!"

【Name: Wombat Golem (Fallen, Cursed)】

【Appearance: A small animal statue with a short nose, small eyes, pointed ears, and a face similar to a rodent. If you approach it after it is full, you will hear a burst of intermittent panting sounds like it is exerting force.】

【Ability: Demon's Chrysanthemum, Square Curse】

【Cost: During the next excretion after use, there will be a high probability of constipation.】

【File: Secret art successor Li Ang Laien, a special anomalous object created by combining two secret arts of the Containment Bureau, using the pouch of a privateer demon, and the flesh and blood of a certain bear demon.

After this anomalous object is activated, all creatures that have looked directly at this strange statue will excrete square feces with sharp corners during their next excretion activity.】

【Evaluation: Hum! Hum! Hum! Ah ah ah ah!!!】
