The 2 hours of the standard halberd seem to pass in the blink of an eye.

On the broadcast screen, Gaius's 'grilled and pickled octopus' is typical of Western cuisine, with a circle of onion strips on a white clean plate, a cut tomato petal, and a green lettuce leaf as a backing on the bottom of the plate.

The octopus feet, which had been grilled on the outside and tender on the inside, had shrunk, and Gaius took a bottle of olive oil and lightly poured the grease on it.

This is followed by a little vinegar and a little lemon juice.

Just looking at the red, green, and green on the plate, the people in the industry who watched the table quietly swallowed their saliva, and the door of appetite seemed to be about to be completely opened.

Needless to say, after all, it is a dish of a heavenly king, at least in terms of forcing the style, it is in place.

"Ding, ding!"

The bell rings.

Gaius took off his white hat and pressed the bell on the table, "My dish is ready." The sound came out through a miniature microphone at the neckline, causing an immediate uproar in the seats.

Doris had long known the recipes of her father, the king, and knew about her father's 'grilled and pickled octopus'.

Hah-

Lifting her breath slightly, Doris was unspeakably nervous in her heart.

She understands the horrors of her father's 'kingdom of freshness'.

It is extremely fresh and unmatched, and on the basis of the taste, there is also the mysterious sublimation of the ingredients given by the legendary kitchenware "Lingzangku". It's like the artifact in the game has been enchanted and forged by a god-level craftsman, and it is even more invincible.

In short, this is a work that returns to the basics and is close to the 'way of freshness'.

"Okay, Chef Gaius is done first!" Doris barely managed to stabilize her tone, without breaking her voice or vibrato, "What about Chef Xia's situation?" Chef Xia, your progress ......"

The camera cuts, and Doris's mouth stops.

With his back to the camera, Xia Yu is holding a very standard Chinese pot and spoon filled with grease.

At this time, the metal pot and spoon were on top of the stove, and the faint blue flame of the stove covered most of the bottom of the spoon, and soon the grease in the spoon was "swishing" and boiling.

"What is this for?"

"Boiling oil?"

Xia Yu grabbed a handful of peppercorns from the bowl next to him and threw them into the oil spoon, and the originally clear grease was immediately dyed red, as if red ink had rendered a pond.

"Whoa. ”

The peppercorns fried in boiling oil emit a hint of peculiar aroma.

Just at this time, hearing Doris's voice, Xia Yu closed the stove valve, looked up at the camera, and smiled slightly, "I'm here, and I've finished the finishing touch." ”

The camera cuts to the kitchen counter in front of him, with five bowls on the table, each filled with scalded noodles.

It's just that the shape of the noodle bowl is quite peculiar.

Half black, half white.

Yin and yang?

Tai Chi noodles?

Seeing the black and white in the noodle bowl, the commotion of the watch table disappeared in an instant.

"Good, so good to set the bowl!"

"The black noodles are most likely cuttlefish juice noodles, but what about the white and transparent noodles? Why did Chef Xia do this, just for the color contrast of the dishes, for the sake of appearance?"

Doris was stunned for a while, she asked Xia Yu twice in the past six months, and vaguely knew that Xia Yu was preparing a recipe for noodles that would kill her. Now the yin and yang shape in the noodle bowl, Tai Chi Tu, also shocked her, "Chef Xia is definitely not a chef who blindly chases after his appearance...... With his unbridled culinary concept, this bowl of noodles is not trivial!

Smack.

At this moment, the sound of a door opening the door came from another glass kitchen. Gaius was the first to take the dishes, going back and forth twice, and placing five dishes on the judges' table.

"Everyone, please slow down—"

Gaius bowed slightly.

The five members of the jury also withdrew their gaze from the broadcast screen.

Lance glanced at the white dinner plate in front of him, and the corners of his lips raised a hint of playfulness, "Gaius, you have fought countless halberd battles, large and small. This battle of halberds is very likely to be recorded in the history of the food industry and become a strong stroke, so do you want to think about it again?"

"Consider what?"

Gaius's face sank.

"Think about serving the food first, then serving the food. Lance crossed his palms neatly, and his eyes showed a seriousness, "Actually, I think your 'Fresh Kingdom' is suitable for Your Highness." ”

"Why?"

"Putting joy on the back burner, isn't it a happy ending?"

“……”

Gaius has green tendons on his forehead, what is joy? Give me a serious face, this is a historic halberd duel!

Zhu Ji and Nagi Senzaemon looked at each other and smiled.

They saw that Gaius was in a hurry.

In fact, when it comes to a duel at such a level, it doesn't matter what goes first and lasts. Gaius has been pretending to be very deep in front of him, maintaining the forced character of the Heavenly King, who knows that at the last moment, he still broke the work-

Rushing to grab a parking space.

Hurry to be the first to serve, the first to grab people.

And his opponent is the junior dragon chef who kept saying "you can't do it" before the opening.

"Grilled pickled octopus?"

Gaius was a foregone conclusion that he would serve the food first, and it was impossible to ask him to remove it. The judges froze, Zhu Ji looked at the white plate twice and then looked up, his eyes firmly on Gaius:

"Have you ever heard of 'super hearing'?" Zhu Ji asked coldly.

"Yes. This is an innate god-level talent to listen to the voice of all things. Gaius said, "You know what you're trying to say, but 'super hearing' and the whisper on my plate are not the same level of umami at all!"

The corners of his mouth raised a faint trace of disdain.

"At the dragon level and above, the so-called god-level talent is no longer useful. ”

As he spoke, glancing at the other glass kitchen behind him, Gaius said expressionlessly, "Super hearing, at most to the extent of establishing communication with the ingredients." It is through communication to tame and control the ingredients. But my 'umami' is on the plate, loaded with the ocean. The taste of the sea you think of is on my plate. ”

The king's rebelliousness hung on his face.

The five judges were silent. Zhu Ji glanced at Gaius intently, and did not reprimand him for being arrogant.

An octopus ingredient, a simple 'grilled and pickled octopus' dish, dare to say that it is loaded with the ocean, this is really big, Xia Yu just pushed the door and walked out of the glass room, he was shocked to stop, "It really came true...... The dishes of the king of heaven are terrifying?"

It can summarize the ocean and outline the taste of the ocean with one stroke.

If this is the handiwork of Chef Tenno.

Grunt!

Xia Yu's appetite suddenly increased, and his eyes became hot.

I really want to eat and see.

At this time, the venue became noisy again, and it seemed that Gaius was the only one who heard the door open behind him. He was silent, and cast a glance at the corner of his eye, and there were many emotions hidden in his eyes, provocative, contemptuous, but in the end these emotions turned into an invitation to the eyes:

Come on.

You can come and try it too.

Discover my 'Kingdom of the Sea'!

"Please—"

Gaius told the judges.

Zhu Ji and Lance were the first to hold the knife and fork, and at this time, the ceiling of the venue was lit up, so the metal knife and fork looked silvery, and the 'grilled octopus feet' under the light were shining with a layer of olive oil.

After the camera zoomed in, everyone at the table couldn't help but wipe their eyes, and faintly saw the picture of the octopus just being taken out of the "Spirit Vault" by Gaius.

Just two hours ago, these octopuses also had a layer of their own crystalline light.

It's as if after boiling, pickling, and charcoal grilling, the ingredients are still the same as they were in the original, and they have never changed.

It's a subconscious mentality.

Well?

Hallucinations?

Xia Yu's expression froze slightly, staring at Zhu Ji and Lance.

First of all, Zhu Ji, his fork pierced the octopus's feet, but it was like stinging the ingredients on the plate, whoosh, the octopus's feet swayed obviously.

The fork stopped, Zhu Ji's hand was harder, and the stabbing went deeper, this time the octopus foot was desperately struggling, and simply contracted up and tightly wrapped around the tip of the fork.

If the Zhu Ji knife and fork are not used well, then what about Lance, a Westerner? Also holding the knife and fork, Lance may have caught a glimpse of the situation on Zhu Ji's side, the fork stopped, and the silver table knife slashed down at an octopus foot on the plate.

Laugh at.

A circle of barbecue is cut off and detached.

Lance's pupils contracted slightly, staring at the section of the roasted meat, and a few drops of rich, dull red liquid were oozing out.

"Yes, something!"

It's not any residual bruising.

Garlic, lemon juice, oregano grass, and rosemary mixed with wine vinegar, which is the ingredients for marinating octopus before, are now venting a torrent of taste to Lance's nose!

"Click!"

Lightning cleaved, the march of the storm.

Lance's blue eyes turned into the sea with bad weather.

A few judges, their faces suddenly solemnized.

Gaius looked at them, his voice lowered, like the old captain of the ship who calmly commanded the sailors to resist the storm on a ship breaking the waves, "Do you think it is like a fish that has sucked in the 'essence of freshness'?"

No one answered him, and the five judges all took their knives and forks, picked up the cut circle of grilled and pickled octopus, and put it in their mouths.

Poof.

On the rickety sea boat, there were sailors who fell into the raging water.

"Hmm, this tightly wrapped, extremely delicate taste!" Zhu Ji, Lance, and Nagi Senzaemon all raised their faces, and after their teeth bit through the roasted hard skin, it was soft and tender meat, delicate and elastic, and they tried to chew it, and it tasted crisp and raw, and in an instant, the sailor who fell into the sea seemed to have accidentally swallowed a live fish, and his limbs suddenly loosened and sank straight to the bottom of the sea.

"That's what it's like to capture people's hearts. ”

"People are willing to give up all resistance and be willing to sink. ”

"Water, a lot. ”

"Disarm, surrender!"

In reality.

The five people on the judging table took off and landed with knives and forks with an astonishing frequency, and as one piece after another of 'grilled and pickled octopus meat' was sent into their mouths and chewed, the changes in their bodies became more and more obvious.

Pendulum, swing.

Shake left, shake right.

The faces of the five judges were written with a bouncing indulgence. It's as if youth and vitality have returned to these old guys.

Xia Yu was shocked, ", dishes with BGM?"

"Like an octopus octopus

Octopus octopus

Go with the flow

Octopus octopus octopus octopus

Dancing in the waves
