Food Wars, I Come From a World Captured by Food

Uh... what's this? The original appraiser, [Miss. Koizumi]? What's going on? Didn't my appraiser get replaced? That old guy who looks like IGO President Ichiryu? Why is she still here?

Could it be that she didn't receive any notification from igo?

While glancing at Miss Koizumi's face, Lin Qingzheng was quickly thinking about what he should do. Should he ignore her, drive her away, or receive her like a normal appraiser?

After thinking about it, he turned on the [God's Cook] form sensing again, but he didn't notice anyone watching him from a distance.

"Yes! Okay! [Miss. Koizumi], please have the [Beef Bone Clear Soup Dragon Beard Noodles]."

After carefully sensing it, although he still didn't know if anyone was watching, Lin Qingzheng still decided to treat her as a normal appraiser.

So he opened the lid of the pot as planned, put some dragon beard noodles in, poured the soup and side dishes on it, and placed it in front of the girl.

"Oh?! Dragon beard noodle soup ramen? Interesting, a rare combination! Slurp slurp slurp~!"

When the noodles were brought to the girl, she saw the golden dragon beard noodles with oil floating on the soup and each noodle looked like golden thread. A smile appeared on her delicate little face. She picked up one without hesitation, put it in her mouth and started slurping it.

"Puha! Are these noodles made with flour from [Ice Wheat]?

This is really good ramen! It's warm when you put it in your mouth, but becomes ice-cold in your mouth!

The noodles fully absorbed the flavor of the soup!

Delicious! Very delicious!

It’s a shame that the fried noodles have a greasy smell that ruins the simple elegance of this ramen!

This makes its rating drop half a star compared to normal! Three and a half stars! I declare that your [Beef Bone Clear Soup Dragon Beard Noodles] is a three-star dish!

Okay, are there any other dishes you want to review? If so, please share them quickly!

"Uh... yes, there is, but can you still eat it?"

Lin Qingzheng was not surprised at all that the [Beef Bone Clear Soup Dragon Beard Noodles] developed by Yaodie received a three-star rating.

On the one hand, IGO's food ratings are actually much stricter than WGO's. On the other hand, so-called fantasy ingredients in this world don't have that kind of over-the-top praise. The same icy taste might be a groundbreaking innovation in Shokugeki World, but in Shokugeki World, at most, it's just "Oh! That's novel."

In addition, the method of using dragon beard noodles to preserve the cold properties of noodles is actually a sign of lack of hard power in this world, and can only use small tricks, so it is natural that the score is relatively low.

But now, after helping Yao Die to test the cooking rating, the next step should be Lin Qingzheng’s own strength.

【Gourmet Cells】Morphology, open!

As soon as the thought came to his mind, the gourmet cells in his body were replenished with energy and immediately became active, causing Lin Qingzheng's muscles to bulge, making him look full of powerful beauty.

"Wow~! [Gourmet Cells Awakened]! That's amazing! Brother, you've already broken through the extraordinary boundaries at such a young age. If that's the case, then your cooking must be delicious, right?

Let me introduce myself. I am the food grader of igo [Man]. Today I am in charge of the food grader of this restaurant.

Come on, come on, show us your cooking skills!"

However, at this moment, a tall, white-haired old man who looked exhausted suddenly appeared at Lin Qingzheng's kitchen door.

The old man's face was full of wrinkles and his skin was dark, but his back was straight.

He was also wearing a gold Hawaiian shirt and a pair of black sunglasses.

As soon as I entered the door, I sat down in front of [Miss. Koizumi] without any hesitation, picked up my chopsticks and waited for the food with anticipation.

"What? You're also IGO's food appraiser? I've never heard of such a thing! Who sent you here to cause trouble? Get out of here! This is IGO's assessment site! Don't make trouble! If you do that again, I'll sue you for obstructing official duties!"

Then, just as Lin Qingzheng was still wondering why the two of them appeared at the same time, [Miss. Koizumi], who had been waiting so gently and quietly just now, suddenly slammed the table and angrily glared at the old man [One Man] who walked in. At the same time, she turned her head and looked at Lin Qingzheng: "You are not allowed to prepare food for him! Otherwise, your review qualification will be revoked and reported to the IGO security department for espionage investigation!"

"What? You dare to say that I'm a fake appraiser?! How is that possible! I'm a veteran employee of IGO who has worked at IGO for over 50 years!

It's you! You're not even twenty years old yet?! You said you were IGO's food appraiser! Is that even possible?! That guy! You just need to prepare my food! Don't give it to this liar!

In response to this, the president of igo, who used the alias [A Man], pretended to be blushing and started arguing with the girl, accusing each other of being a liar.

Uh... this...

To be honest, facing this sudden situation, Lin Qingzheng was a little worried.

He had never experienced anything like this, and he hadn't even started field training at Totsuki yet. So, facing the two examiners' argument, Lin Qingzheng scratched his head for a moment. As the two men's arguments intensified, their eyes widening, even picking up stools and preparing to throw them at each other, Lin Qingzheng had no other choice but to continue concentrating on cooking, hoping the delicious meal would calm them down. To this end, he even activated every ability he could, including his [Cooking Heart] and [Gourmet Cells] except for his [Breathing] ability. He even adjusted the width and shape of the noodles, making them about a centimeter thinner.

"Boom!"

Finally, Lin Qingzheng's dish was ready. It was still noodles made of [Ice Wheat] and beef bone broth made of [Air Water] and [Golden Bison Bones].

Just when they were sprinkling a pinch of [volcanic rock salt] on the noodles that had been topped with a boiled egg cooked in bone broth and fried [bacon leaves], the "booming" sound coming from the bowl of noodles attracted their attention.

"What is this? [Delicious Explosion]?!"

The blonde girl blinked and looked at the old man in disbelief.

She remembered that the ingredients used by the young man just now were all ordinary ingredients below level 10, right?

Even though [Air Water] is a little more precious, it is only level 10.

It’s amazing! It turns out that low-level dishes can also be used to make five-star dishes!

"That's right! It's the [Delicious Explosion]!"

Opposite her, IGO President Yilong, who goes by the alias [Yin Nan], also had a look of surprise on his face.

It's truly an amazing talent to be able to create a five-star dish using such humble ingredients.

Could it be that Sanhu came here just for this child?

Chapter 98: Training Qualifications of Shilin Temple

At this moment, Lin Qingzheng, who was still cooking seriously, naturally had no idea how many thoughts were going through their minds at this moment.

"Please use it, both of you!"

Smiling, he placed two dishes in front of the two of them. Lin Qingzheng stood by with a smile, watching them enjoy the dishes.

"Mmm! So delicious! So delicious!"

"Slurp slurp slurp slurp~!"

For a moment, both Miss Koizumi, who was dedicated to his duties, and Yilong, who was just having a quick meal and inspecting the grassroots appraisal officers while searching for clues about the Gourmet Club, forgot about the "conflict" that had just occurred between the two of them, lowered their heads, and began to sip noodles seriously.

As soon as you take a bite, you will savor the amazingly delicious noodles and the delicious storm that rages in your mouth.

Not only Miss Koizumi, who had eaten countless ramen noodles, but even President Yilong, who had tasted even more high-end cuisine, fell in the delicious storm that descended from the sky.

It was not until the last noodle was sucked into their stomachs that the two began to praise it endlessly: "Wow! It's really unbelievable!

You can actually use these ingredients that are only level ten at most to create a five-star dish!"

After finishing a bowl of noodles in one breath, [Miss. Koizumi] nodded with a smile and looked at Lin Qingzheng: "I suggest that you sell this bowl of ramen for 500 million yuan! In this way, your ramen will even attract people from all over the world to eat it!

If you plan to open a store, I will apply to the headquarters to arrange for all lunches for our employees in city 446844 to be held at your place!"

"Oh wow! Not bad! Young man, you're quite talented! How about it? Have you ever considered joining igo as a direct chef?" President Yilong, who goes by the pseudonym [Yi Nan], directly recruited Lin Qingzheng: "By the way, as a direct chef at igo, you have the opportunity to attend training at [Shilin Temple] every year!"

"Oh?! [Food Forest Temple] training? Can I learn [Food Righteousness] and [Food Dependence]?"

Lin Qingzheng wasn't at all interested in Miss Koizumi's suggestion of introducing him to some business. He wasn't actually short of money right now.

The purpose of opening this store was, on the one hand, because I was dazzled by the income of the big guys when I bought kitchen utensils.

In reality, it was just to avoid taxes on his own space-time resale. —Yes, even in the prisoner-eating world, corporate taxes are lower than personal taxes.

As for really making money by opening a noodle shop here?

Let's wait until he perfects his recipes and makes ten-star dishes! — Just like how Song Niang became a six-star hotel with [Century Soup], even though it only got one more star, its revenue increased tenfold.

But, a place in the "Food Forest Temple" training program? That's a truly great thing! If he could master "Food," his "God's Cook" form would be usable for a long time.

"Oho?! You want to learn [Eat Righteousness] and [Eat Without]?"

After hearing what Lin Qingzheng said, Yilong looked at him up and down with interest: "Hmm~! Your cell level is not bad, so it should be no problem for you to learn [Eat Righteousness]. As for [Eat Not], let's wait until your gourmet cells evolve for the first time!" - By then, the money he earned from selling ramen should be more than that earned by the time-space trader.

Lin Qingzheng's current cell level is around 26-27.

If you want to [evolve for the first time], you will probably have to reach level 50 or above.

The level that Alu and the others reached after eating the [Gem Meat].

Fortunately, I have obtained the [Gem Flesh].

Thinking this in his heart, Lin Qingzheng bowed to the old man named [Yinan] and said, "Mr. [Yinan], I am willing to join igo and become his direct chef!

Excuse me, when can I go to [Shilin Temple] for training? "

"Oh hehe! From the looks of it, you want to go to [Shilin Temple] for training right now, right?"

Seeing Lin Qingzheng's anxious look, Yilong laughed happily: "No problem! No problem! Come on, fill out this employment report first."

"Yes! Uncle [a man]!"

Faced with the opportunity, Lin Qingzheng was extremely obedient. He reached out to take the employment report and began to fill it out.

Soon, I successfully got a position and became a direct chef under igo. I can move freely and don’t have to go to work or punch in.

But if you receive an order, you still have to obey the arrangement unconditionally. - Of course, IGO usually doesn't order people around for free. In such cases, the compensation given is also very good.

"Well! Very good! At the beginning of next month, you will take the [New Shark] to the entrance of the [Misty Forest] in City No. 5999997.

There will be a convoy that will take the prisoners to [Shilin Temple] for re-education, and you just need to follow them!"

Reaching out and taking the signed employment report from Lin Qingzheng's hand, the expression of the old man [Yi Nan] changed rapidly. The wrinkles on his face disappeared rapidly, and his gray hair turned golden. In a blink of an eye, he changed from [Yi Nan] to [Yi Long]. At the same time, he took out a piece of paper, quickly wrote a letter of introduction, signed it, and handed it to Lin Qingzheng.

"Don't be surprised! Don't scream!"

Facing [Miss. Koizumi] who opened her mouth to scream and Lin Qingzheng who also had his eyes wide open, the president of igo, the current strongest man in the world, smiled and waved his hand.

Standing up and nodding to Lin Qingzheng, Yilong walked out: "Thank you! Brother, it was a really delicious meal! Come to think of it, I haven't had such delicious food in almost half a year!"

"This is impossible!"

After hearing what Yilong and Yizhu said, Koizumi Caihua covered her mouth in surprise: "You are the president of igo!

The most noble man in the world! It's just a five-star meal! You should have been tired of it a long time ago! "

"No, food is an integral part of our lives. As long as it's food from this world, how can we get tired of it? Always be grateful for food, child!"

Yilong looked at Koizumi with a gentle expression: "You are a good person! Although you have been affected by the current corrupt bureaucratic environment within IGO, you still haven't really taken action against me, an old man who might be pretending to be an appraiser.

Afterwards, I'll give you an "Excellent" rating for your assessment. Also, judging by your profile, you don't seem very good at tasting other types of food. I'll have them arrange for you to only taste ramen from now on!

"Wow?! [Yu]?! Is this true? That's great! I don't have to worry about getting fired!"

After hearing what Yilong said, Koizumi Ayaka also smiled. She was an appraiser who was only good at tasting ramen, so she was actually always worried about whether she could keep this job.

But now, with the excellent evaluation from Igo President Yilong, she will only be responsible for tasting ramen dishes in the future, and she no longer has to worry about losing her job.

"So... Mr. President... what's Chef Lin's cooking rating? How many stars should I give him?"

"Huh?! Chef Lin's cooking rating?"

Yilong turned his head and glanced at Lin Qingzheng, the corners of his mouth curled up, and in a flash, he disappeared from the store: "Then it's up to you to decide! I'm just here to eat, you are the appraiser for this classification!"

Chapter 99: The Undercurrent of Food Wars World

"Tokyo Shimbun reports that the preliminary round of the 'Blue' competition held in Tokyo by the French restaurant organization 'WGO' has concluded. The next round of knockouts will be attended by leaders from five countries, including China, the US, Russia, France, and the UK!"

On this side, while Lin Qingzheng was still excited about getting the opportunity to intern at [Shūrinji], over in the Shokugeki world, with the holding of [the blue] competition, the whole world seemed to be caught in a strong smell of gunpowder.

"Hey! Shi! I'm here to play with you! Did you know? I was challenged again yesterday!

That guy not only bet all his academic credits on challenging me, but also bet a farm of over 100 hectares!

As a result, the [Grilled Boneless Saury] he brought out was not even rated four stars!

Now that guy was not only forced to drop out of school, but also lost his family business!

You don't know, when he was dragged out of the school gate by the security guards, crying his heart out, the way those students looked at me! It was really funny! Why didn't they think that if we, the top ten, could be easily defeated, then why weren't they sitting in the seats of the top ten! Hey! What kind of fish is this? It looks so funny, stupid, like a broken balloon! "

In the back mountain of Totsuki Academy, in Si Yingshi's personal kitchen, the [White Knight of the Dining Table] was staring at a [Poisoned Puffer Whale] in a daze. Suddenly, the door of his private kitchen was opened, and Kobayashi Ryodan walked in as if he was entering his own home. He hugged Si Yingshi's head from behind and used his chest muscles to squeeze the white-haired boy's sanity.

"Dragon... Gentian! Why did you come into my room without knocking again?"

Even though he was attacked by brain waves, Si Yingshi, who had long been accustomed to it after three years of getting along, still maintained his rationality and reached out to pry open the powerful girl's big hands.

While still staring at the [Puffer Whale], Si Yingshi changed the subject: "Is it because you are too strong?

Like our third place player, Megijima Fuyusuke, wasn't he defeated by someone else? The person who defeated him was called [Yayama Ryo], right?

When he heard that he was Professor Shiomi's adopted son, he immediately took out a kilogram of new fantasy spice as a bet.

Then he defeated Megijima with a four-star [Curry Udon] and took his place."
