Food Wars, I Come From a World Captured by Food

First of all, after breaking through the extraordinary limit, the biggest change in Lin Qingzheng's body was that the color of his gourmet cells turned black.

What? Why do you say it changed? Weren't his gourmet cells black before?

Indeed not.

Initially, the gourmet cells in Lin Qingzheng's body were colorless. — No, to be precise, except for those geniuses who were born with gourmet cells.

Everyone's gourmet cells are colorless at the beginning.

In the process of advancing their gourmet cells, they will gradually change the tendencies of their cells due to their personality, eating habits, and mental state.

Finally, when you break through the barrier between mortals and the extraordinary, you will completely obtain your own cell color. And at this time, if your cell potential is great enough, you will be able to attract food spirits of the same color to settle in.

Help you gain the power of the Soul Eater in his previous life. —For example, right now, Lin Qingzheng was staring at the cell demon in his body that looked like Boros in the form of the Train King, a little stunned: "Who are you? Why are you in my body?"

"Me? I've almost forgotten my name before I died. Anyway, I can give you the power to breathe.

This is the rent I give you!"

Facing Lin Qingzheng's questioning, "Boros" did not answer, but shook his head and directly talked about what he could bring to Lin Qingzheng.

"The power of [breathing]? Do I need you for that? My own skin can breathe!"

Lin Qingzheng was somewhat disdainful of Boros's words. True to the legends of this world, while having a food spirit inhabit one's body was certainly a good thing, the abilities these spirits brought weren't always necessarily useful. As long as one's cells were superior, the abilities of the food spirits attracted might even be inferior to one's own. After all, in the world of food captives, anyone who reached level 1000 or above would be transformed into a food spirit upon death. Therefore, the general consensus in the food captive world was that Lin Qingzheng was born from [a genius born with food cells who could become a powerful food demon]. As for ordinary people, go to sleep; dreams can hold all sorts of possibilities.

So, facing this guy who looked like Boros, Lin Qingzheng activated the power transmitted by it with a bit of dissatisfaction.

“Plop! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Then, the next second, Lin Qingzheng's world went dark, and all material sounds disappeared. All he could hear were the breathing sounds of the sky, the earth, the cells in his own body, and everything in the world.

Holy shit! This ability is!

It was only a brief moment of immersion in that quiet yet noisy world. Because of the surprise in his heart, Lin Qingzheng suddenly broke away from that state.

Then, he discovered that the gourmet energy in his body, which had multiplied several times, had basically returned to zero.

Now he only relies on his skin to instinctively absorb external air energy to keep himself from entering a state of self-eating.

"Wow... such a high consumption!"

While Lin Qingzheng was surprised by the power of this skill, he was also very surprised by its energy consumption. You have to know that if Lin Qingzheng's mana bar was 100 before the breakthrough, then his mana bar was at least 1600 now! And just like that, in just a moment, these 1600 points of energy were burned through by it, leaving only 1-200.

However, this so-called "Breathing" ability is indeed worth the terrifying consumption. - There is no way, this ability is called "Listening to the Breathing of All Things" in the neighboring pirate circle.

In that state, Lin Qingzheng could clearly perceive the breathing, texture, and existence of all things in the world.

Combined with the increased agility and strength gained from his Gourmet Cell upgrade, it can be said that his [Knife Skill] skill level has increased by no less than 30 levels! He has become a rare master of knife skills in the world!

However, the only problem now was that Lin Qingzheng's blue bar was too short! This state might not even last for a second.

I want to upgrade! Upgrade! Upgrade! Make the blue bar longer and increase the number of cells, so that he can finish at least one dish!

As for this goal, Lin Qingzheng thought of his partner.

Now I should be qualified enough to travel with Starkin, right?

Meanwhile, Zong Kai and Little Brother A had also come to a conclusion. After all, Zong Kai was the boss, and as long as he was shameless, Little Brother A would never be able to snatch him away.

So, Zong Kai picked up a five-star dish made with premium ingredients like [Bliss Rice], [Garlic Bird], [Monkey Broth], [Seasoned Seaweed], and [Ten-Yolk Egg], and he opened his mouth wide and scooped it up like he was emptying a dirt box. He chewed it with a wide grin, exclaiming in admiration as he ate. Yet, the cells in his body remained calm, untouched. Even a five-star dish, in IGO's evaluation, was equivalent to a raw ingredient with a capture level of 50.

"Well, you've finished your five-star meal, so I'll see you there!"

Then, seeing that Zong Kai had finished his rice, Lin Qingzheng, feeling that they were no longer useful, was ready to kick them out.

"No! [Chef Lin]! We lied! The offer that casino gave us wasn't the taste memory of a five-star meal!"

Then, facing Lin Qingzheng's order to expel them, Zong Kai and his younger brother A suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to him repeatedly. "Actually, the Royal Casino of the Kingdom of Jidar has taken a fancy to you, a wealthy man with extraordinary spending power. After knowing that we had a capture commission with you, they took B away while we were not paying attention! They also said that they would let B go only if we invite you to the casino, play a few games, and then become a member!"

As they spoke, the two men kowtowed to him violently: "Chef Lin, please come with us to that casino!"

Ah, this..."

To be honest, Lin Qingzheng was unwilling to wade into this muddy water. On the one hand, the Kingdom of Jedal, as a non-member state of IGO, was indeed a chaotic lawless zone.

On the other hand, I was also unhappy about why I trusted the "plot".

Thinking that Zong Kai and the others were all good people, they foolishly believed his statement that "food memories were needed to redeem people" and even made them a [Garlic Bird Parent-Child Rice].

“Buzz…Buzz…!”

Just as Lin Qingzheng was about to reject Zong Kai and the others' request, his phone suddenly rang. It was an email from Starkin: [Hi! Lin-san, are you in the restaurant now? Uncle Sanhu and I are already above your restaurant! If you're there, come out and take a look!]

Hmm? Over the restaurant?

After seeing the email, Lin Qingzheng's mind turned slightly, and he also felt that about three thousand meters above the city, there was a huge existence like a mountain that was disturbing the air flow in the sky.

"Then...what is that?"

Because Lin Qingzheng picked up his cell phone, took a look at it and ran out of the kitchen, Zong Kai and A followed him quickly. Then, as soon as they went out, they were amazed by the existence soaring in the sky, casting a huge shadow like a mountain on the earth.

Chapter 85 One-year appointment

"What a big fish!"

That's right, the huge creature flying in the sky as if swimming in the sea is actually a fish, a super-giant whale whose whole body is wrapped in rocks and seems to be carrying a city on its back.

It is a subspecies of the [Black Hole Whale]!

That's right, it's a subspecies of the Black Hole Whale! With just one glance, Lin Qingzheng, a familiar reader of "The Captive of Gourmet Food," was certain the creature soaring in the sky was the offspring of Mu En, the Whale King, one of the Eight Kings of the Gourmet World. Perhaps it wasn't the Whale King's eldest son, but it was undoubtedly a super-being with a capture level of over 3000, a roar so powerful it could shake the Earth.

In the entire human world, there are not many people who can own such a war pet, and among these few people, the only one who can make this thing leave the human world is that person!

"Look! Something's falling from the sky!"

Then, Lin Qingzheng had a thought in his mind, and he heard Zong Kai shouting beside him.

Then, suddenly a gust of hot wind blew past, dark red light and shadow flashed, the surrounding air vibrations disappeared instantly, and silently, two tall figures appeared in front of Lin Qingzheng.

The man standing behind Lin Qingzheng's partner had long, disheveled hair like a lion and eyes as deep as a pond. He looked like an unrivaled strong man.

It is the president of the Gourmet Club, one of the five strongest people in the world, and the great existence who possesses the [Tongue of God] in the world of food prisoners, Sanhu!

Judging from the flash of the red shadow just now, the moment they landed, Sanhu must have used the [Tongue of Greed] to devour the kinetic energy and heat when they fell from the sky, which caused this almost teleportation effect.

It's really scary. The strongest people in this world can even eat pure force and energy.

So strong! Too strong, too incredible! When can I be as strong as him?

"Are you Starkin's partner?"

Just as Lin Qing was sizing up Sanhu, mentally "recalling" his opponent's strength and invincibility, Sanhu, standing across from him and clutching the back of Starkin's clothes like a chick, looked at him and said, "Have you broken through that barrier?" Although it looked like a recent breakthrough, the Food Spirit had already entered, and it was still a black cell.

not bad.

Go, cook me one of your best dishes and let me see how good your cooking skills are! Remember, do your best and do it without reservation! "

Then, the big boss glanced up and down at Lin Qingzheng, and immediately judged his current situation and began to order him to cook as a matter of course. His tone was as if it was as it should be, full of majesty that could not be disobeyed.

"Um?!?"

However, Lin Qingzheng did not follow his order to cook immediately. Instead, he glanced at Starkin first. After he nodded with a wry smile, he quickly ran into the kitchen.

I took out a [Garlic Bird] that had been prepared long ago and placed it in a kitchen utensil that had the ability to preserve freshness and was minimally processed. It was of the most perfect appearance and quality.

At the same time, the [Ashura] culinary heart, black gourmet cells and a momentary [Breathing] state were activated.

In this state, Lin Qingzheng finally understood how the chefs in the prisoner-of-food world managed to prepare tens of thousands of dishes in a day.

With a lightning-fast swing of the knife, he dealt with the [Garlic Bird].

He scooped the most essential part from the broth of the [Soup Monkey] and put it into the wok.

Then add [strong onion], then add [garlic bird] and stir-fry in hot oil.

"Boom!"

During this process, because Lin Qingzheng continuously injected food energy into the pot, all these operations were completed within a second. With the presence of food energy, the ingredients would never burn or become undercooked.

Then, just by sautéing the garlic bird, a small explosion of flavor occurs in the wok.

Then, beat in the double yolk egg.

"Boom!" Exploded again

Sprinkle in volcanic rock salt.

"Boom!"

Even at the end, the chicken and eggs were served on the rice.

"Boom!" Another explosion!

"Ooooh?! Four explosions, eight-star cuisine?! Interesting!

This [Garlic Bird Parent-Child Rice] is something you have pushed to the limit.

Judging purely by the quality of the ingredients in this dish, even Jie Naidan probably can't compare to you."

At this moment, Lin Qingzheng had just put the food in the pot and recovered from his full strength.

Then he heard the Sanhu Guild Leader speaking from behind Lin Qingzheng. Not only did he speak, he even placed his hand on Lin Qingzheng's back.

It is continuously supplying him with gourmet energy to maintain the terrifying consumption he just had when he was at full strength.

"You're not bad, barely qualified to partner with Starkin!"

After saying that, he glanced at Lin Qingzheng calmly again: "It's just that your current level is still too low.

The things used were also a little inferior, a knife from a saber-toothed shark and a pot from a kuriboshi.

Oh! Such low-quality stuff! "

As he said that, he turned around and looked at Starkin, frowning slightly: "How about this, I will give you another year, you go and become stronger for me.

One year from now, when I bring Starkin to see you, I want you to be able to maintain the state you just reached for more than one minute on your own.

And master a ten-star dish!"

"Lord Sanhu!"

Starkin was getting anxious and was about to walk over to say something.

But a red shadow flashed in the kitchen, and he was knocked against the wall by Sanhu's tongue.

All I heard was Sanhu saying coldly: "Children, don't interrupt when adults are talking!"

Then he looked at Lin Qingzheng and said, "As for you, I will give you a kitchen knife made of the teeth of a Thunder Fang Dragon, and a set of kitchen utensils made from the materials of the Seven Beasts of the Gourmet World.

They will be made by the world's second best grinder [Wesker] and the world's second best cook [Hackenmeier]!

If you pass my test, they will be your gift for partnering with Starkin.

If you fail, that's your compensation, understand?"

"Yeah, yeah! Got it!"

Lin Qingzheng nodded repeatedly, knowing exactly what Sanhu was talking about. [Golden Kitchenware]! It was arguably the most advanced and sophisticated kitchenware in the world!

It's even more powerful than the so-called "Diluos Chopper"! It can be used to cook "God"!

Honestly, if you were to put this set of kitchenware next to the Starkin set, I believe most people would choose the [Golden Kitchenware]! - Of course, Lin Qingzheng is an adult, so he wouldn't make a child's choice. He wants them all!

In a word, he wanted [Golden Kitchenware], and he didn't want to leave Starkin as his partner.

Then all you can do is hone your cooking skills and work hard to become the best!

Thinking of this, he was just about to look up and say something to Sanhu, but he saw that the big boss had already grabbed his partner with his hand and walked out. In the blink of an eye, he was already outside the kitchen door. He looked up at the position of the giant beast and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute! Lord Sanhu! You haven't tasted my food yet!"

Seeing that Sanhu was about to leave, Lin Qingzheng couldn't find any reason to stop them, so he could only stretch out his hand and shout "You haven't eaten yet" to stop them from leaving.

I want to get together with my partner more often, because the next time we meet will be a year later.

"Your cooking? Humph! I already ate it! It tastes pretty good.

Boy, the food tastes pretty good. I'll have someone start making it. It should be ready by this time next year!"

Lin Qingzheng turned around and realized that at some point, all the [Garlic Bird Family Rice] in his pot had vanished. Even the large pot of [Bliss Rice] was gone. He had finally managed to create an eight-star dish by chance, but it only lasted a few minutes, and before he could even taste it, it had vanished from this world.

As expected of a top five powerhouse in the world, this speed of eating...

"Om..."

[Sorry, Lin-san, Master Sanhu has a bad temper. He's not usually like this. Don't be mad at him. Let's see each other again in a year! I'll work hard to become stronger! Oh, by the way, I brought you a gift. I put the lotus root in the [storage box] next to the rice bag in your kitchen. You should eat well this year and don't feel too much pressure. I'll also try to convince Master Sanhu. Don't worry, we will always be partners!]
