Chapter 80: Biochemical Chef
Hunger is terrible, and after 10 players, without meals for most of the day, hunger will flood the country, completely suppressing all other desires. If you don't replenish food for a long time, the person will gradually become weaker, resulting in negative effects such as magic that will not automatically recover, the healing speed of wounds will be greatly slowed down, and the four attributes will also be reduced. If you don't eat for three days, your combat power will be reduced by more than half. If you don't eat for seven days, you will experience a countercurrent or even fall out of the grade. If the situation is particularly serious, your life will be in danger.
The Dawn Tavern is the only place in the camp where magical food is officially served. Its popularity is no less than that of arenas and department stores. As long as you can afford it, you'll be able to eat the best food in the entire camp.
The tavern is located next to the square and has a unique location. It is three stories high. A faded wooden signboard hangs on the door. It says "Dawn Tavern" and is open 24 hours a day. When Zhang Tong came in, the lights in the tavern were bright, and most of the seats were empty, but there were also a few tables, including the yellow mercenary group.
Among them, a young girl on the table by the door was the first to see it and shouted: "Ah, it's the colonel!"
Zhang Tong looked at the past, and it was still a person he knew, Susie.
When Suwon and the other men and women heard this, they immediately stood up nervously: "Colonel, why are you here?"
Du Rongrong clenched his fists and said dissatisfiedly, "Hey, how did you talk? Can't we come to dinner?"
"Ah, no... That was not what I meant. β
Zhang Tong patted Du Rongrong's head, waved his hand and said, "You can eat and drink as much as you like." Don't worry about this person. β
The large dining table not far away is also beneficial, it is a high-ranking member of the Huang family's forces, but Huang Tian's father and son are not among them, and the food is richer than others, but it is only relatively speaking, it is nothing more than a few plates and bottles of wine, and it is generally not luxurious. There is no way, the bar consumption is too high, and the gold coins are worth spending at this stage and can be saved.
"Dear guests. A little robot walked over and handed over the menu: "Can I help you?"
Zhang Tong glanced at the menu. The price is not cheap. He pointed to two of them, "one golden steak per person, and two other bottles of Roman wine." I want a window seat. β
"Okay," replied the mechanic, "15 gold coins per steak and 15 gold coins per bottle of Roman wine, for a total of 105 gold coins." β
Leng Yun couldn't help but say, "Why is it so expensive!"
"Come out to eat, of course it's expensive. Either way, it's not common. It's okay to spend money once in a while. β
Zhang Tong handed over 105 gold coins. Because he was working by the door, food and drinks were delivered quickly. Golden steak is top-notch food, while Roman wine is first-class drink, just the lowest magic food. This is a relatively cheap and delicious food that Zhang Tong specially selected from F-grade items based on his experience.
The steak is large and weighs at least 2 kg. Top with black pepper, chopped shallots and garlic peppers. It is covered with a brown layer of soup. The oil at the bottom of the dish is still smelling due to overheating. The tempting aroma makes the index finger flutter, so I don't think about the problem that the wine and food are too expensive.
Du Rongrong is the child of a wealthy family. He often likes high-end Western restaurants, so he quickly got into the groove, picked up the napkin handed by the robot, and put it on his body. Then he picked up the brand new sterling silver cutlery and expertly cut off a piece of meat with a knife and fork. Unexpectedly, the meat was particularly soft and cut off without much effort. The steak is brown on the outside and tender red on the inside, with a hint of gravy oozing out.
"I want to eat!" Du Rongrong inserted a large piece of meat into his mouth. He mumbled, "It's delicious." Obviously, this is F-grade food. It is estimated that the food is not good enough to go there. Why is it better than a wood-based barbecue?"
Zhang Tong opened a bottle of wine and poured it for a few people. "That's for sure. I'm just a junior chef. Who is qualified to compare to the chef at the Dawn Tavern? In my opinion, the chef's cooking skills are at least at the expert level!"
Expert cooking, quite advanced. With the same ingredients, the same practices, expert cooking has more than twice as many attributes as entry-level. In addition, beginner cooking can process the highest grade of food, while expert cooking can process the highest grade of food.
"Boy, you're good at talking, croaking ......" An ugly shrill voice came from behind the bar, and a fat man swaggered out from behind: "I don't dare say anything else." As for cooking, no one in the entire Dawn region can surpass me. Golden beef was originally an F-grade ingredient in my hands, but it can be turned into F-grade delicious food, quack-quack......"
Du Rongrong was so frightened that he almost vomited out the meat. "Who is it?"
The heart slammed, and the scorpion involuntarily held the Hidden Blade.
Born... Cyborgs!
This person is bigger than a chef, very fat, wearing a dirty chef's clothes, wearing a chef's hat, the big head is divided in two, the metal head is average, the ordinary head is average, the body is mostly mechanized, the mechanical left arm is filled with bottles and cans, and a large pot is held in the hand, the mechanical right arm is like a kitchen utensils display table, kitchen utensils of various sizes, and a kitchen knife in the hand.
Everyone showed fear, and most of the cyborgs were powerful, and no one wanted to provoke them.
"Who are you?"
"I'm the owner and chef of the Dawn Tavern! I like people to nickname me Chef Steel, you can just call me Chef!" Biochem grinned, how terrible, how terrible this big ugly face was. The red electronic eye blinked, stared at the steak in Zhang Tong's bowl and said, "Kid, this is a little bit back to the roots, you know my cooking level, I haven't even tasted it!
Zhang Tong hurriedly said to him: "No, it's just luck. "In my mind, I was thinking that every once in my life I would go to a bar to eat. If I didn't even know your cooking skills, it was a white fire.
At this time, the voice prompt of the system sounded: "Iron Chef likes +25, now likes 25, the relationship has changed: neutralβ ordinary." β
The chef smiled and said, "Your kids have learned to cook too?"
Zhang Tong said politely, "I know a little bit about fur, this is just a beginner level." No big deal. The chef smiled!"
Leng Yun looked at Zhang Tong strangely. Everyone was afraid of the biochemical tribe, but Zhang Tong did not change his face and talked to the chef. I don't know what he wants to do.
The chef nodded with satisfaction: "Interesting person, you are the first human chef I have ever met. Since we are destined, I will give you a task!"
Zhang Tong was ecstatic.
Biochemical clans are similar to mechanical clans and also belong to NPCs, but biochemical clans are NPCs with emotional abilities. Each biochemical tribe has the ability to give the player a task. The tasks they have are usually limited and will not be given lightly. They can only be triggered if certain conditions are met. For example, the mysterious merchant, no one knows what race he is, but because Zhang Tong meets the trigger conditions, the mysterious merchant gives Zhang Tong a task.
Zhang Tong had known earlier that the chef in the bar had task triggers, but chefs were usually elusive and would not appear under normal circumstances. This time, he's just taking risks. I didn't expect to run into a chef and luckily triggered the quest.
The chef said, "I've heard that the mushrooms on the Spore Plains are particularly delicious, and the mushrooms on the King Mushroom are the best. Can you get one or two?"
Mission Triggers!

"Honestly to the chef, I happen to have it with me." Zhang Tong took out the "Best Black Mushroom" that had dropped from the hands of the two mushroom kings and handed it to him. "As we traveled through the Spore Plains, we stumbled upon the Mushroom King. These two mushrooms fell from the Mushroom King. β
The chef grabbed two large mushrooms, put them in front of his nose, sniffed them, and his face showed joy: "Good, good, this is the best black mushroom." He rudely put the mushrooms away. "You are indeed someone who was meant to be. I don't take someone else's stuff for no reason. If you give me two mushrooms, I'll give you two things as a reward. Please accept them!"
"[Steel Chef Cookbook], EE Level, records the cooking notes of expert steel chefs, and after learning, you can master the cooking skills and knowledge of steel chefs. Food conditions: Elementary cooking.
[Cooking Promotion Reel (Elite Level) promotes entry-level cooking.]
Worth!
The Chef's reward is not gold. Open the chest to get the scroll. The former is invaluable for professional life.
The level of life occupation is divided into: entry level, elite level, vocational level, expert level, master's level and master's level. Every step of the way up is extremely difficult. This requires not only diligent study, but also sufficient talent and understanding. An expert chef's cookbook is priceless. Not only can the cooking level be improved quickly, but Zhang Tong can gain the experience of a professional chef and improve his cooking skills in the future!
Zhang Tong quickly thanked the chef.
The chef said, "Your cooking skills are still terrible." If you become an elite chef, come back to me! If you're in a good mood, I'll give you a suggestion or two. What is recorded in this cookbook is only the basics. β
"Yes!"
"It's not easy to find a decent disciple these days. It's okay to go to a bar and do odd jobs and get a good salary. The cook turned to the crowd and said, "Also, listen to me, you humans." I know you're poor right now. This chef is here to give you a way to make a fortune. If you learn culinary skills, even at a beginner level, you can work in a bar. The hourly wage is 30 gold coins. Depending on the price increase, you can raise the price or even eat it!Of course, don't expect to eat well!If you buy the ingredients, you can also sell them to bars at a reasonable price!"
Early players were usually poor, and there were three ways to make money, complete quests, find a job, and sell materials.
The Hall of Dawn announces a number of mercenary missions with rewards every day. Upon completion, they will receive rewards and increase the points of the mercenary group. As for finding a job, in most cases, a person needs to learn life skills that produce items for the camp, which will not only increase proficiency but also earn a little money. In addition, selling materials and equipment is also a good option. Different stores buy different things. Equipment stores buy used equipment, and department stores buy all kinds of useful sundries. However, the price will drop very low. It's best to sell them to other players.
After all, the food limit is low, and even if you don't know how to cook, you can eat it over fire.
After the announcement, the chef left with a big belly.
Talked about a lot.
Lin Caiyan said in disbelief, "Woodhead, why does this biochemist look different?"
Zhang Tong replied, "The cyborgs are all intelligent races. Not every cyborg is like Cook. There will be many opportunities to deal with cyborgs in the future. We have to see them clearly. β
Some biochemists are easy to get along with and benefit from. Others are just as dangerous as chefs. If they don't agree, they'll shoot and kill!
