Chapter 1716: The Great Old Ones’ Edibility Research

“Of course!” Mag rattled off his confirmation in his mind while complaining at the same time. “System, didn’t you say that we would receive the results within 24 hours? But now, 36 hours have already passed. Your efficiency is terrible.”

“The composition of this unknown species is more complex and different from all the ingredients that this System has studied before. This System has even developed several advanced pieces of equipment to study it in depth. Hence, there was a delay. The host does not have to be concerned,” the system explained.

“You’re late means you’re late. Don’t make excuses.” Mag pursed his lips. He had already opened that test report in his mind.

This test report was rather professional. Be it the format, the contents, or the testing methods, they all demonstrated the system’s attention to details.

First and foremost: “The research results on its edibility: research shows that after washing away the surface mucus and blanching the tentacles of this species, it could be instantly cooked with methods such as stir-frying, stewing, and deep-frying. Its texture and taste are better than normal octopus tentacles, and it is an excellent ingredient. Meanwhile, the eyeball on tentacles has a rather complicated internal structure. It is rich in various nutrients, and contains many elements that are beneficial to the human body. Eating it could improve a variety of eye problems...

“In summary, this species’ tentacle has a very strong plasticity and the characteristics of rapid regeneration. It’s an excellent ingredient for octopus tentacle and roasted octopus eye!”

Mag stared at that hardcore report and frowned. He felt that things did not seem so simple.

Turning a Great Old One’s report into an ingredients research report. This was really...

“However, it looks rather good. When can we test on the octopus tentacle that we previously froze?” Mag seriously considered it before rolling his eyes. “We do have the cooking methods, but our focus now wasn’t to eat it, right? It’s to make sure that we do not get eaten by it.”

The test report was very long, and the various experiments done by the system were listed in detail, including the use of various methods to conduct damage experiments on it. However, the final conclusion was: “After countless experiments done by this System, it has been determined that physical damage can only weaken its strength mildly. Among all the magical elements, only the light element has a certain restraining effect on it, but it needs to achieve a similar value before it can exterminate it completely...”

Mag roughly read through this test report. Unfortunately, according to the system’s tests, he couldn’t find any methods to restrain it other than the Holy Light magic.

“This conclusion is a little terrible.” Mag frowned. The only benefit of this conclusion was that it prevented Mag and the rest from making some pointless attempts.

“Although this System couldn’t find a method to kill this species yet, the research shows that if physical damage is being done to it for a long time, and after the accumulation of weakening, it would cause an irrecoverable injury to that species.” The system’s voice sounded.

“What do you mean by that?” Mag frowned. He couldn’t quite understand the system’s meaning.

“After you all are done with the sealing and the fortification, this system will build an octopus tentacle processing plant within the region that is sealed up.”

“You’re impressive.” Mag gave it a thumbs-up and praised it from the bottom of his heart.

Mag continued to ask, “How long will this process take?”

“This System has analyzed this species’ cell division limit. The experiment is not over yet, so the specific time has not yet been determined. It should be over 100 years.”

Mag raised his eyebrows. 100 years was a very long period of time for the humans, but for the Great Old Ones who had existed for ages. Using 100 years to kill it wasn’t a very long time.

Mag began, “We definitely are not able to use up so many octopus tentacles at Mamy Restaurant alone. If you don’t want to waste these octopus tentacles, why don’t we form a partnership and set up a professional company that sells octopus tentacles? We can let the natives on the Norland Continent join in the great cause of eating up the Great Old Ones.”

“According to this System’s calculations, this octopus tentacle processing plant can produce approximately 100 tons daily, and this number will continue to grow in the future. This indeed isn’t an amount that the Mamy Restaurant can use up...” the system lamented. “But, selling ingredients does not meet the positioning of the system, and—”

“Of course it meets the positioning. See, I came to this world as a candidate for the God of Cookery to bring a beam of light to this world’s culinary world which was like a desert. I’m supposed to spread the seeds of scrumptiousness.

“But do you think the people here are able to obtain those ingredients that Mamy Restaurant uses? Such a setting was problematic right from the start.

“Take that mutton soup for example. I can cook a pot of delicious soup without having to process the rank odor. However, if those normal sheep do not go through a few complicated procedures, their rank odor will be enough to destroy a pot of soup and meat.

“However, if we could sell these octopus tentacles that we are going to discard to these ordinary people at a reasonable price, while I share the recipe of cooking this octopus tentacle with the public, then wouldn’t we have successfully introduced this dish into the ordinary folks’ homes?” Mag said plausibly.

“It sounds... rather reasonable?” the system lamented as it began to waver.

“We will split the profits 30/70. Aren’t those farms of yours making a loss now? As long as this octopus tentacle becomes people’s favorite dish, you don’t have to worry about money again, right?” Mag continued smilingly.

“I’ll take 70, while you take 30?”

“Tsk, tsk. Do we still need to care about such stuff with our relationship? Think about it, what’s the most important thing when it comes to selling a product?”

“The product’s quality.”

“See, you don’t know about marketing at all. To sell a product, you need to have an outstanding salesperson. A truly formidable salesperson could sell a piece of rock as if it was a piece of gold. Therefore, the salesperson’s commission is the highest in the product chain. If I don’t help you sell these octopus tentacles, they could only be used as fertilizer in the ground. But after going through my hands, it would become a valuable product. So, do you agree that I should get 70%?”

“That sounds rather legitimate.”

“That’s right. Come, let’s sign the contract first. After your factory is ready for production, I will set up the sales channel for you. We, father and son, will be invincible working together.”

“Great, great, great.”

Mag had successfully fooled the system into signing the contract. He then left the underground cave with Irina.

He was very happy to promote the octopus tentacle dishes. He could elevate the quality of living of all the people on the Norland Continent while making money at the same time, so why not.

Although the system had agreed to weaken the Great Old Ones’ power through the process of cutting, 100 years was still too long. He couldn’t pin all his hopes onto the octopus tentacle factory. He had to think of some other methods.

After leaving the underground cave, Mag said to Irina, “The usual methods have no effects on this octopus monster. Only your Holy Light can cause certain damage to it, but given your current power, you won’t be able to kill it completely.”
