In the back of Lu's house. Xiao Musheng was about to take out the Baller's carcass out of his spatial ring when Lu Rianli asked.
"Wait, brother Musheng. The beast, is it big? And did you bleed it already?" (LR)
"Ah, it's big and we didn't have the chance to bleed it. Don't worry, I can hang it myself." (XM)
Xiao Musheng thought that Lu Rianli asking because he thought that they wouldn't be able to hang the Baller with just the two of them. But Lu Rianli wasn't thinking of that.
"Then please wait a minute, I'm gonna take something that will make things easier for us." (LR)
As he said that, Lu Rianli went back inside and came back soon. He was holding a basin half as tall as him and double his width. He put down the basin, inside it was a red ball the size of an adult head. There were five needle-like protuberances on the surface of the ball, it was a curious thing.
Xiao Musheng looked at it and couldn't make tails of it at all. Besides the red ball was a transparent sheet. Lu Rianli spread the sheet and asked Xiao Musheng.
"How big is the beast?" (LR)
"About three to four meters." (XM)
Lu Rianli input the number on the corner of the sheet, there were buttons with numbers on it at the corner of the sheet. When he poured Zhenqi into the sheet, it enlarged according to the number input into it. Xiao Musheng looked at the sheet with interest. What a convenient thing. The ability to shrink and enlarge, it was something he saw on a magic tool. Like a magic tent that can shrink to miniature size and enlarge to its original size.
"Brother Rianli, what is this?" (XM)

"Hehe, it's something I asked brother Yan make. It's a lifesaver, with just this sheet I can handle monsters that are too big for my butcher room. Now, come take out the carcass of the beast." (LR)
Xiao Musheng nodded and held the spatial ring with his arm over the sheet. With a thud, the Baller carcass landed on the sheet. Lu Rianli's eyes lit up seeing the carcass. He put the basin near the carcass and took out the red ball.
He aimed the ball at the carcass and inserted his Zhenqi into the ball. When the ball is filled with enough Zhenqi, a red light came out from the crimson ball and scanned the carcass. After that, the five protuberances shot out with a long thick tube connecting it to the ball.
The five needle-like protuberances pierced the Baller carcass, Lu Rianli then put the ball inside the basin. As dark red blood sucked out of the Baller carcass, it flowed to the tube and into the ball.
A hole opened up on the ball and the blood flowed out, slowly filling up the basin. Xiao Musheng looked at the ball with marvel. With such a device, handling prey on the hunt would be so much easier.
"Brother Rianli, do you have another one of this device? Can I borrow one?" (XM)
"Hahaha, as expected you recognize the value of this thing. But unfortunately, I only have one of these. So I can't lend it to you." (LR)
"I see, that's a shame." (XM)
Xiao Musheng was disappointed. He really wanted the ball. With the ball, he won't have to search for a tree to hang the prey and could easily handle any prey.
After a while, blood was drained from the baller's body. Brandishing his knife, Lu Rianli went around the carcass. After finding a gasp in the hard skin, Lu Rianli stabbed his knife in. The baller's body already loosened up after it's death, so the sharp knife easily pierced the skin.

A few hours later, Lu Rianli wiped the sweat on his forehead. The baller's carcass already stripped of his hard hide, the flesh exposed for all to see. The Baller's organ already extracted and sitting on the side. He used a cleansing spell to clean the carcass after he removed the organ.
"Let's see how it tastes first." (LR)
Lu Rianli cut two small chunks of meat.
"I've prepared the fire." (XM)
Xiao Musheng sat in front of a bonfire holding two long iron skewers, he expertly pierced the meat with the skewer and stabbed the skewers near the fire. He rotated the skewers from time to time, to make sure the meat roasted evenly.
Juice dripped from the meat as it turned brown, the smell of the meat was a little off but they thought it was because it didn't have any spice. Xiao Musheng pulled the skewers off the ground and gave one to Lu Rianli, the two gave the meat a big bite.
Firm. The meat was really firm. That was the two first impression of the meat. Then the gamy smell hit them, a strong gamy smell. The two frowned but kept chewing until they tasted the natural sweetness of the meat. After the first bite, they didn't take another bite.
"This… can we serve this?" (XM)
Said Xiao Musheng as he gazed at the meat while frowning. Lu Rianli thought with a finger on his chin.
"It should be fine. If we cut it to a small bite-size and use spices to hide the smell, it should taste okay. We can let some of the cooks experiment with it first." (LR)
Xiao Musheng nodded at Lu Rianli's answer.
"Yeah, this guy has many meats on its body anyway. No problem using some. Then brother Rianli, can I trouble you to cut some of the meat and distribute it to the cooks?" (XM)
"Sure, leave it to me." (LR)
Answered Lu Rianli as he began to cut the meat of the Baller. He went for the arms first, then the legs and lastly the body and head. Xiao Musheng wasn't interested in watching anymore, so he excused himself. He walked back to the hunter headquarter when he reached the place, there was already someone waiting for him, the village chief.
