Chapter 229: Persuasion and Choice (2-in-1 Chapter)

As they walked, they came to the deck, facing the sea breeze, and stood on the side of the ship.

Seeming to be wet by the mist drifting from the sea breeze, Ye Bowen took off his glasses, wiped them with a cloth, and then slowly spoke.

"What I'm going to say next is not a secret, it's become a consensus in the domestic culinary community.

The country now seems to be quiet, but in fact there is an undercurrent. ”

Qian Chen listened quietly to his analysis of the domestic situation.

"Do you know how many kings there are in the country?"

Qian Chen suddenly smiled, this is completely common sense that children know.

Ye Bowen smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Well, I'm just kidding. The five heavenly kings in China are guarding the capital and Shanghai (east), Guangzhou (south), Chengdu (west), and Shenyang (north).

Originally, everything was fine, but it is a pity that the old timers of Tianwang Longxiao, who guarded the capital, were old, and the ambitions of some people gradually rose. ”

Ye Bowen's eyes showed a hint of coldness.

Although he did not say who it was, he could see the clue from the place where the four heavenly kings were guarding.

In terms of prosperity alone, in addition to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou are the two most powerful, and Chengdu and Shenyang are slightly inferior.

Those who have ideas and strength for the position of the first 'Emperor of Heaven' must be these two.

Tang Yunlong, who is in charge of the Longzhen restaurant in Shanghai, and Lei Han, who is in charge of the Zuixian Building in Guangzhou.

Qian Chen couldn't help pinching his eyebrows.

From ancient times to the present, from the Celestial Empire to foreign countries, there has never been a time when those who have fought for the throne of the emperor have not been bloody and bloody, and the whole country has been in turmoil.

With Qian Chen's current strength, he really can't touch this 'throne' battle at all.

The current form of the country is really a bit like the throne of the Central Plains in the Condor Archery. Originally, Wang Chongyang led the way and suppressed and refused to accept it, but now that Wang Chongyang is old, the other four have come alive again to fight for the first place in the world.

Even with the forces under their command, the disciples and grandchildren also moved.

The dragon chef is the main force, and the Lin chef can only be a pawn across the river, as for the special chef, hehe, be a cannon fodder!

It seems that the Thunder Heavenly King wanted to recruit him as a high-level cannon fodder because of the praise of the Dragon Heavenly King.

Qian Chen couldn't help but feel glad, fortunately, it was the guy named Chang Ao who contacted him.

"If it weren't for the fact that Long Xiao's seniors are more than 120 years old this year, how would these young people dare to come out!"

Ye Bowen slapped the railing next to him hard.

So this railing, which is made of alloy, has a thick baby's arm, and is said to be able to bear several tons of weight, was directly slapped into two sections by Ye Bowen, and Qian Chen's eyelids jumped.

"You don't have to pay for the damage you have destroyed the IGO thing! ’

"It's a pity that it has been more than thirty years since Long Xiao's seniors reached the peak of the Heavenly King, but they have never been able to find the essentials and cannot advance an inch!"

Ye Bowen said this, but looked at Qian Chen with a pair of expectant eyes, as if he was the last straw.

Qian Chen immediately understood what he meant, so he spread his hands.

"Don't look at me, that is the kitchen god, I'm just a small special chef, the kitchen god is too far away from me, how can she tell me such an important thing."

Ye Bowen's eyes showed a color of extreme disappointment.

"That's right, I was reckless."

Then Ye Bowen took out a jade pendant from his arms, which was carved with a soaring dragon, and the word 'dragon' was written in ancient seal script in the center.

However, he looked serious, holding the jade pendant in both hands and handing it to Qian Chen.

"Longxiao seniors let me bring you a message: If the wings are not hard, don't come back!"

Qian Chen suddenly looked at him with a look of surprise, and then quickly turned into a wry smile.

Everyone else is flying hard with wings, but he wants to do the opposite, which is really...

"Also, now your peers in China have made you the first target."

Ye Bowen patted him on the shoulder with relief.

Qian Chen was immediately embarrassed.

Feelings: This old man Long Xiao said that sentence on purpose.

I'm afraid that there is still half a sentence behind Tuo Ye Bowen's words: It's okay to come back, and you will bear the consequences.

Qian Chen seemed to have seen the scene of a long queue at the door of the room waiting to 'greet' him after he returned to China.

The world is so big, and all that is done is the word 'fame and fortune'.

If his peers challenge him, he can get 'fame' and 'profit'.

Defeat him and become a genius stronger than the genius praised by the Heavenly King.

At the same time, it can also be cultivated by the forces where it is located.

There are many domestic geniuses, and the pressure of competition is also great, so the allocation of resources naturally has a focus.

The resources here are broad concepts: ingredients, recipes, cooking skills, and even guidance from higher-level chefs.

Comparatively speaking, the Far Moon Tea Sauce or something, it's really weak.

The unmasked old king was really right, with just one sentence, he blocked his way back to China with a yang scheme, and this sentence was not an order, but others acted consciously and spontaneously to achieve the effect he wanted.

But thinking that his age was only a fraction of that of others, Qian Chen was suddenly relieved.

Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy.

Although it was calculated, Qian Chen was not half dissatisfied, but had a strong sense of gratitude, and he could feel the love of the Heavenly King.

"You take this jade pendant, and when you get to other countries, you can take this jade pendant to the Celestial Empire embassy for help.

This jade pendant represents the Emperor of Heaven himself, and the resident officials of the embassy dare not disobey. ”

Ye Bowen said and handed him the jade pendant.

Qian Chen's jaw was about to fall off in shock, this, isn't this the legendary Shang Fang Sword!?

This gift is too heavy, Qian Chen hurriedly said.

"Please thank God for me."

Ye Bowen patted him on the shoulder.

"Work hard! Be tough when you should be tough when you go out, don't embarrass our Great Celestial Empire, it's the Emperor of Heaven standing behind you! ”

With that, he turned around and prepared to leave.

"You seem to be bullish on me, why?"

Qian Chenqi said.

"Because you're the one who the kitchen god likes!"

Ye Bowen waved his hand with his back to him and left.

A wry smile appeared on Qian Chen's face.

I didn't expect it to be stained with Artoria's light, which is really a beauty.

When I returned to China, there was a competition for the throne of the heavenly king, and there was a challenge from geniuses of the same age.

Qian Chen had no choice but to accept Isabella's invitation to go to France.

Before heading to France, Qian Chen decided to check out the properties.

One Holy Cauldron War, two fights with soy sauce, and the total level of cooking skills increased by 3 levels with just one battle with Artoria!

In addition, the attributes, talents, and cooking skills of each branch have improved slightly.

However, what surprised Qian Chen the most was the advancement of the two talents.

"System, I remember that these two talents can't be upgraded?"

The system replied immediately.

- Under normal circumstances, it is not possible to advance with upgraded gems, and the host is in a special situation.

β€”β€”In this Holy Cauldron War, the host has been subjected to the impact of Heavenly King-level cuisine many times, and the related tasting talent and will talent have been greatly tempered and improved.

When it was over, the system added another sentence.

β€”β€”The system is fair and just, and the amount of effort you put in, how much you will gain. In this Holy Cauldron War, the host's participation evaluation is: S- (Note: This evaluation is a hidden evaluation, which directly affects the host's reward score)

- Keep up the good work!

For the first time, Qian Chen wanted to give the system a thumbs up.

At the same time, it also made him come to a conclusion that the higher the difficulty of the task, Qian Chen's participation, which can also be understood as the higher the activity, the richer the reward he will get in the end.

This is a completely implicit indicator, invisible but hugely influential.

Because he soon found himself developed.

- Congratulations to the host for completing the epic serial mission: Holy Cauldron War!

- Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden quest: helping the Kitchen Spirit to become the Chef God!

- The host will finally get a reward boost!

- Congratulations to the host for earning 50 Free Talent Points!

- Congratulations to the host for getting 5 random purple rewards or a 'Heart Core' (which can increase the grade of the Kitchen Heart by 1-2), please choose!

Not to mention the full 50 points of free talent points all of a sudden, the lottery chances have also changed from 3 to 5.

But when Qian Chen saw the latter words, he couldn't help but hesitate.

The best thing that can be drawn in the purple lottery in the end is only a higher level of gold, but the latter thing that can improve the level of the kitchen heart is not ordinary at first glance.

At least Qian Chen had never heard of a treasure that could improve the level of the kitchen's heart.

This thing must be a unique super treasure produced by the system.

And look at the posture, it will only appear if the hidden conditions are met.

Anyone who has played the game knows that the attributes of hidden treasures will be much higher than ordinary ones, otherwise how can they be worthy of the word 'hidden'.

What's more, through the halberd again and again, especially this time with Artoria to fight side by side against the Hero King, Kitchen Heart played a decisive role.

The stronger the kitchen's heart, the stronger the ability to infect diners with medicine (crossed out), which is an all-round improvement of his cooking skills.

Qian Chen did not hesitate to choose the 'core of the heart'.

However, when Qian Chen got his hands, he found out that he had been deceived by the system.

Where is it called 'heart', it looks like a colored ball of light, and there are endless tiny stars circulating in it.

Qian Chen immediately used the 'Heart Core'.

As luck would have it, Chef Xin directly rose to 2 levels, crossed S- from A+ to S-level, and reached S level.

However, Qian Chen felt a little strange, it seemed that his body had not changed much.

What Qian Chen didn't know was that in the depths of his soul, a layer of colored gauzy-like band of light appeared on the outer ring of the colored ball of light, like a ring of stars.

At this time, the level of his enthusiasm has increased, and even the ability to move people with his drugs (crossed out) has also been greatly enhanced.

Naturally, he can't waste so many talent points in one go, and he won't be given interest if he has a storage system, plus he is about to go to France, he needs to improve his strength even stronger.

So Qian Chen did not hesitate to invest 59 talent points.

First, raise the Passion to level 16, then the Temperature Control Skill to level 20, and the Wing Chun point to level 20.

The Ichinotai Knife, which had the greatest impact on sword skills, was directly ordered to level 31 by Qian Chen!

Gan!

A flash of golden light!

The name of the Ichinotai Sword was directly changed to 'Ichino Tai Knife β€’ Rock Breaking Blade'.

Before Qian Chen could be shocked, countless pieces of information suddenly slipped into his mind.

It's all Tsukahara-sensei's perception of the Ichinotai knife.

This is a profound technique she has learned from the rocks broken by stonemasons.

Everything has its texture, and the "texture" of the enemy is found to be consistent, a knife kills, and a knife that regenerates one, so it is said: a knife.

'Ichinotai Knife' became his first golden cooking skill!

From now on, Qian Chen only needs one knife no matter what ingredients he cuts.

Qian Chen didn't know that if he met a girl named Liang Li, the two sides would definitely have a lot of common language.

For the first time, Qian Chen experienced the pleasure of a local tyrant, although it was only for a few minutes.

This time the addition of points has made a qualitative leap in Qian Chen's strength.

But these are not the biggest gains of Qian Chen's Holy Cauldron War this time.

Qian Chen flipped through the recipe and pulled as many as twenty or thirty items to the bottom.

I saw four orange words pop up directly behind the blue name!

Arthur's creamy muffin, orange (unavailable) is made with more than a dozen fantasy ingredients.

Wrath of the Sea of Blood, orange (uncraftable) blood sausage made entirely from pure soy products, requires the Noble Phantasm 'Death King'.

Royal Glory, Orange (unproducible) Indian Curry and Scone Cake in two parts, requiring Noble Vehicles 'x Curry Stick'.

Looking up at the starry sky β€’ Change, also known as the Fake Revolution, orange nirvana (cannot be made).

A simple and straightforward introduction, but a symbol of infinite possibilities.

Because these four copies are the real heaven, king, food, and spectrum!

Yes, with Qian Chen's current cooking skills, he can't make it at all, even if he can't even make 1% of the completion.

But don't forget, you can't make the genuine version, but you can make a simplified version.

Even if it's a simplified version, it must be more powerful than an ordinary recipe, who made this a recipe for the king?

Suffice it to say, each of these four recipes symbolizes a complete system.

Its value can no longer be measured in terms of money alone.

This is not the most precious treasure that Qian Chen has obtained.

A kiss Artoria gave him before she left was more precious than all of it combined.

Because with this kiss, a legendary treasure was transferred from Artoria's body to Qian Chen's body.

Noble Phantasm - Avalon, Red (Due to the low level of the host's chef, this Noble Phantasm is currently sealed, tentative grade: Purple)

Effect 1: Frozen Space - There is an infinite amount of space that can be used to store ingredients, and the time inside the space is frozen, and the ingredients stored in the space will not deteriorate with time.

Effect 2: (Unblocked)

Effect 3: (Unblocked)

Effect 4: (Unblocked)

Robustness: ???

This is the most precious treasure that Qian Chen has obtained so far.

Of course, Qian Chen felt that the other Knights of the Round Table now had a good reason to hunt him down.
