I conquer the world by cooking

He Yuanyuan is studying the newly upgraded system interface.

There are two more values ​​under the bond icon, which seem to be related to Qi Cheng:

Health: 31/100

Mood value: 87/100

There is also an icon of the system store. He Yuanyuan clicked on it to see, and now there is only one product hanging in it: health potion: 10 gold coins per bottle, health value 1.

It doesn't look expensive, but he only has 40 gold coins in total now, which is enough to buy four bottles.

There is a new food in the recipe:

Lotus leaf and lotus root balls (special): 100 yuan per ball. Young girls in the south of the Yangtze River pick fresh lotus leaves and lotus roots in the fields, and hand-adjust them to make this delicacy.Efficacy: Fat removal and slenderness, returning to a graceful figure.

Lose weight?It seemed that they would be popular, so He Yuanyuan hung up casually.

There was another lucky draw opportunity and he used it together, and got another green item with an unknown purpose. He felt that he could make a pair with the other two, but there was still no reaction when they were put together:

Cracked water ladle: This is a very old water ladle. If it is willing, you will hear many unknown stories.Note: Other components need to be supplemented to function.

I looked around again carefully, and found no other changes, only a reminder that the task has not been claimed hangs there.

He Yuanyuan thought for a while and shut down the system first.

He felt the system was hiding something from him.

To be honest, he now has plenty of pockets, a successful career, and even the recovery of his sense of taste thanks to the system, but he still has a strong sense of vigilance in his heart.

The system's attitude towards Qi Cheng is obviously a little different, and this particularity doesn't seem to be as simple as because he once had a crush on Qi Cheng.

He decided to test He Xi and Tong Shengdi first.

At noon, the two small shops took a short break. He Yuanyuan said early on that he was cooking at noon and invited the two of them to eat together.

The two came over happily and enjoyed a delicious meal, looking no different from ordinary people.

"You went to the concert yesterday, what did you think?" He Yuanyuan chatted casually.

"Humans are interesting," Hersey said, "and I got a lot of interesting material."

"Material?" He Yuanyuan asked curiously, "What is the material for?"

"It can enrich our database." He Xi replied.

"Then... what is your purpose for doing these things?" He Yuanyuan continued to ask.

Tong Shengdi looked at him. She looked ordinary, but her eyes were particularly dark, and there was an inhuman tranquility in her: "You seem to be a little wary of us."

He Yuanyuan immediately shook his head: "I'm just curious about what the system wants to do? You see, for any human being, his behavior always has a purpose. What do you want to get?"

"Our purpose is to promote the prosperity of interstellar food and build a harmonious and prosperous interstellar food empire." He Xi said to him very sincerely.

...?

He Yuanyuan looked at him dumbfounded.

"Hahaha, I'm just joking!" He Xi laughed, then shrugged at Tong Shengdi again: "Look, I've obviously updated the database, but it's still hard for humans to understand my sense of humor."

……

He Yuanyuan felt that Tong Shengdi could communicate a little bit: "I think even if I don't need me, the system can completely rely on you to run a snack bar—or other food empires, why not do this? Why did you choose me?"

Tong Shengdi smiled softly: "You are very important to us."

She told He Yuanyuan that the system's criteria for judging the taste of food depended on his brain, or in other words, if the food was designed purely by the system, those special functions would still work, but the taste, probably few humans could eat it .

"Even if it is sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty tofu brain, we need your help to design it, otherwise the taste is probably similar to silicon-based salt or quartz sand, can you imagine?"

He Yuan shook his head blankly.

"But what exactly do you want to do? What does it have to do with Qi Cheng?" He Yuanyuan was still not satisfied with their answers.

"When you upgrade the system to an advanced level, you will be able to unlock more key information. You can rest assured that Mr. Qi is also a very important person to us. We have a common goal, which is to recover as soon as possible." Tong Shengdi said .

He Yuanyuan left with half-belief.

"Users have a great distrust of the system. Is this an accident? Do you need to report it?" He Xi said gloatingly.

Tong Shengdi looked at him mockingly: "Do you think you can escape punishment?"

"When I didn't say." He shrugged.

However, this is indeed a tricky problem, and if users choose not to cooperate, it will be difficult to achieve their goals.

Tong Shengdi's eyes flashed with light, as if he was communicating with something.

Just as He Yuanyuan was about to open the store, the system suddenly rang: "Congratulations to the user, you have received a system upgrade gift package!"

He Yuanyuan somehow felt a particularly blunt and embarrassing feeling.

He clicked receive.

There was another sound of ding ding dong dong, and he suddenly got 100 experience points, 100 gold coins, and a new recipe.

It felt like an appeasement to his question just now... But He Yuanyuan still couldn't help it, and immediately exchanged for a little taste, and there was another small leaf on the huge dead branch.

He went back to the kitchen, took out a little salt and licked it, and the strong salty taste returned, almost no different from before his accident.

His tongue seems to have fully recovered?

He Yuanyuan stared blankly at the speck of white fine salt in his hand, and was silent for a long time...

"I'll just trust you again." He said to the system.

System: Thank you for your trust. This system takes the well-being of all human beings as the meaning of existence, and takes the life-long happiness of users and bonded objects as the goal of struggle. It will never do anything to harm users and bonded objects.

...It would be very hypocritical to say that, you know that!

He Yuanyuan shut down the system silently.

After a while, he clicked on the system again and took on a new task.

Intermediate Task 1: Move the boy forward!

If the time-limited mission is not completed within the specified time, all missions will be refreshed, the progress will be reset to zero, and you need to claim it again.

Love: Your lover is seriously ill in bed and needs your comfort.Requirement: Buy a bottle of health potion for your lover to make him feel better.

Rewards: experience 100, gold coins 30, two lucky draw chances, 3 recipes, optional task 1.

He Yuanyuan stared at the mission introduction on this big board for a moment, but after a closer look, he found that the difficulty was not high, it was the love branch, which seemed a bit awkward.There are also new optional tasks that have appeared, and I don't know what is going on.
