Chapter 161: Culinary Enhancement and Faction Contribution
Chen Ye looked at himself and saw that he still had 178 floating slaughter points, he gritted his teeth and exchanged 100 floating slaughter points, obtained 1000 camp contributions, and then used these 1000 camp contributions to buy 1 green quality food supply "Sesame Baked Cake", this baked cake has no other attributes, that is, to carry hunger, if you give it to the soldiers, it can ensure 24 hours of combat effectiveness, and the blue quality bun is 12 hours, and the reincarnation has no special effect when used by himself, probably only has some satiety.
is such a "sesame baked cake", after Chen Ye turned it in, he actually obtained 800 points of camp contribution, that is to say, he only converted 2 percent of the loss, so that a bold idea appeared in his mind, he couldn't help but glance at the skill information of his "skilled cooking G", "20% chance of getting extra" also happens to be 2 percent compensation, but the skill can be improved by upgrading, and once it reaches the mastery level, it will also get an evolution of class selection, especially the "20% chance of additional quality" If it is improved, then Chen Ye has earned it, and this business can be done!
Chen Ye immediately contacted Lin Jianguo, who was still looking for someone, and asked him to exchange the floating slaughter points for the contribution of the 1W camp, he didn't know how many floating slaughter points Lin Jianguo had, but he knew that Lin Jianguo might lack others, but the floating slaughter points would never be lacking.
Lin Jianguo immediately rushed over, and after exchanging the contribution of the 1W camp, he exchanged for 10 catties of refined flour, which is both an ingredient and a food, and the quality has reached green, so 1 catty is 1000 camp contributions, Chen Ye asked Lin Jianguo about the task by the way.
"There are already eyebrows, Kong Xiangzu is an errand in the feudal empire, and he knows a lot of palace secrets, Zeng Rong is staring at him now." Lin Jianguo said.
Chen Ye nodded and said: "Give you an idea, let Zeng Rong keep an eye on it in the dark, you go to contact Kong Xiang, and you will say that you have received news from the mountain bandits, knowing that he has a treasure at home, and there are already martial arts masters who have taken a fancy to it, and they are about to come to get it." β
Lin Jianguo nodded knowingly, but she didn't expect this trick of "throwing stones to ask for directions", it was indeed too much time to wait like this.
10 catties of refined flour, Chen Ye didn't have much in his hand, so he took it to the cooking class and kneaded the flour by the stove, after half an hour of production, he made 10 parts of green quality food "compressed biscuits", and 2 parts of silver quality food "big naan", because the attribute of refined flour itself is only to relieve hunger, so these two foods only inherit this attribute, but they are all different in duration.
Chen Ye handed over 12 pieces of food to the quartermaster, and immediately received the contribution of the 1W camp, which means that he spent half an hour only to increase his proficiency by a few hundred, but Chen Ye was not in a hurry at all, it was enough to be able to keep not losing money at this stage, and he immediately exchanged another 10 catties of refined flour to continue making food.
4 hours later, Chen Ye drank 1 bottle of proficiency skill upgrade potion, "skilled cooking" reached F level, all characteristics increased by 1%, don't underestimate this 1%, in the original situation that can only maintain no loss, this 1% chance is an additional profit, maybe you can't see it once or twice, but with the number of times you make it, you can quickly achieve results.
5 hours later, Chen Ye drank another bottle of proficiency skill upgrade potion, "skilled cooking" reached E level, and the cumulative camp contribution reached 1W2, at this time, Lin Jianguo's triangular note appeared in the Sumeru space, Chen Ye just rested for a while, took it out and looked at it, and couldn't help but light up in the eyes.
[Side quest 3 (hidden) "Past Events": You found a map in the secret grid of Kong Xiang's house, which is likely to be the place where the previous dynasty buried its treasures, which may contain many dangers, and you need to be more cautious. γ
"Zeng Rong and I went to dig treasures, it takes about 3 days to come and go, you can keep an eye on it yourself." Lin Jianguo wrote out the content of the task and the arrangement.
With Zeng Rong by her side, Chen Ye was not worried at all, although Zeng Rong was weakened by 10% of her true attributes, her strength was beyond doubt, even if she didn't turn on the "bloodline transformation", the general gold-quality plot characters were not her opponents, as for the "bloodline transformation" after turning on the "bloodline transformation", even if it was a powerful monster of purple quality, with the skill of "Demon Ten Killing Sword", she dared to fight.
"Be careful on the road, besides, I need to be proficient in skills to upgrade potions......" Chen Ye replied.
Soon, there were a few more bottles of proficiency skill upgrade potions in the team space, Chen Ye knew that this was probably all the reserves of Lin Jianguo and Zeng Rong, plus these, Chen Ye now had 5 bottles of proficiency skill upgrade potions in his hands, which was enough.
After "skilled cooking" reaches the E level, the probability of various characteristics reaches 22%, and he can buy 12 catties of refined flour at one time, and Chen Ye earns camp contributions faster, after 6 hours, Chen Ye continued to drink 1 bottle of proficiency skill upgrade potion, so that the sub-skill reached D level, and the cumulative camp contribution reached 1W8, he supported his tired body to exhaust the last bit of vitality, and barely made up to the 2W camp contribution, so he slept with peace of mind.
When he woke up, it was already 4 hours later, Chen Ye, who was in a deep sleep, regained his vitality, and then continued to continue to earn camp contributions, with a 23% chance of various characteristics, and at the same time, after the original funds were doubled, it reduced the time for him to go back and forth, even so, Chen Ye spent 8 hours to upgrade his "skilled cooking skills" to C level, and at this time he still had 3 bottles of proficiency upgrade potions left in his hand.
After a hurried meal, Chen Ye continued, 12 hours later, when Chen Ye's vitality was almost exhausted, he finally upgraded his "skilled cooking" to B-level, at this time, the probability of characteristics had reached 25%, and Chen Ye's camp contribution had finally undergone a qualitative change, and at the end of this day, he had earned nearly 5W of camp contributions, which was a preliminary success.
At the same time, Chen Ye also received the news that Lin Jianguo had arrived at his destination, it was a barren mountain range, and the place marked by the map was a dilapidated temple, as soon as they entered the temple, they found a new clue under the clay Buddha, they pushed to the Buddha statue, and found that the base of the Buddha was inlaid with a black metal square, and after pulling it out, they received a task prompt before they had time to look carefully, saying that they had violated the taboo of the mountain god, and the mountain god was going to punish them, and there would be countless fierce beasts attacking in 5 minutes.
"Don't run around, find a suitable terrain and stick to it first...... Wait, the things in the team space were used by Zeng Rong first! Fortunately, Chen Ye had already planned to end the day's work at this time, rest well and wait for 4 hours to complete the follow-up of the main quest one, otherwise the 5 minutes would be fleeting, and he would not have had time to remind Lin Jianguo and Zeng Rong of the trap of this task.
Generally speaking, after getting X time, there is a strong enemy attacking, subconsciously will run as far as possible, this is precisely the trap of the task, in the barren mountains and mountains, the beasts and poisonous insects in the deep mountains can be said to be overwhelming, if you run in a panic, it is easy to fall into the endless encirclement, in the face of this tactic, even if it is as strong as Zeng Rong, it is impossible to survive, so a terrain advantage must be in the hands, first hold on for a period of time, and then see if there is any other turn in this task.
Chen Ye hurriedly ran to the quartermaster and exchanged 3 "Intensive Training Manuals" with 6W camp contributions, this silver prop is not limited to the number of purchases, but the "Intensive Training Manual" is only valid for attributes below 40 points, and each person can only use it up to 3 times, and it can be used synchronously, plus the "Chakra Cultivation Experience" exchanged in the last reincarnation world, 4 props that increase the real attributes, and put them into the team space, when Chen Ye put the props into the team space, he accidentally found one thing, When he found his title of "Awe in the Mountains", he thought it might help them, so he tried to put the title in the team space, and unexpectedly got a hint message.
[Yes/Shall you unbind the title item "Awe in the Mountains" and put it in the team space?] This operation costs 500 Epides, and the user will rebind an additional 500 Episodics. γ
[Awe in the mountains: quality blue; title equipment; Determines 1 time every 1 minute, 1% chance of "Fear" against neutral creeps in the wild within a radius of 5 meters (cannot attack for 3 seconds), the same unit can only be determined 10 times]
Chen Ye once thought that this title equipment was simply a waste, and he didn't pay attention to it, but he didn't expect that Lin Jianguo's hidden branch would face a large number of neutral creatures besieged this time, the value of this title equipment was comparable to a golden prop, and 1000 crystals were really worth it for them.
Some of the food supplies and these 4 props in the team space, as well as the "Awe in the Mountains" quickly disappeared, which made Chen Ye feel a little more relaxed, these props that increased his true attributes could almost make up for Zeng Rong's loss in the first layer this time, plus the 4 evil earth corpse puppets refined by Lin Jianguo, and she herself was a support-type reincarnation, so it was not a big problem for this battle to persist.
It's useless to think too much, before Lin Jianguo and them asked for help, Chen didn't plan to go over, he had to believe in the ability of his teammates, with some worries, Chen Ye still fell asleep, 4 hours later, it was the 8th day he arrived in this reincarnation world, he and Zeng Rong's main quest was automatically completed, and at the same time, the next main quest of the three people was released.
[Main Quest 2: Assist the Nationalist Army to dismantle one of the four major faction warlords, and complete 1 of the following objectives will be deemed to have completed the task; 1. The occupation of factional warlord political centers by the National Army; 2. The leader of the faction warlord dies; 3. Reduces the strength of any faction warlord by 50%]
Chen Ye looked at the content of the task, he had a plan in his heart, he shared the content of the task, and soon he also saw Lin Jianguo and Zeng Rong, who also shared the main task, it may be because they both joined the national army, and at the same time they are a team, the content of the main task two is completely the same, which makes Chen Ye have a new arrangement for the next plan, and the time is no longer so tight, there are still 7 days left before Lin Jianguo's main mission is completed.
Although Chen Ye's camp contribution is only more than 1W, but he is not worried, Sun Xingwu he received an order, his troops set off 2 days later, to Anding City to besiege the northern warlord Liu Guangcheng's forces, these days Sun Xingwu is not without action, but step by step advancement, as his large army to keep up, after a little rest, he has cooperated with the actions of the entire national army, launched a military plan to besiege Anding City.
Sun Xingwu's troops are only more than 1W, but the defenders of Anding City are enough to have 3W, but Sun Xingwu's troops are only a small part of the entire National Army, and he has received the same siege combat mission of division-level troops, there are 12, nearly 15W of troops will surround the entire Anding City, the Nationalist Army is still unwilling to start the war lightly, I hope that under this pressure, Liu Guangcheng's troops can surrender by themselves, peacefully resolve disputes, and unite with the outside world, but also to completely tear apart the hypocrisy of Liu Guangcheng's two-faced faction, It is hoped that it will split itself internally and create a better chance for the bloodless capture of Anding City.
There were still 2 days to go, Chen Ye had to speed up, and at the end of this day, he finally made the proficiency of "Skilled Cooking" reach the MAX level, and took the long-cherished "Mastery Skill Upgrade Elixir".
[Your "Cooking" sub-skill has reached the mastery level, and the quality has been evolved, please obtain the branch attribute of this evolution from the following options:]
γA.Extra +10 for cookingγ
[B. 10% increased chance to get an additional one]
[C. Fine Food: Increases the effect of food by 30%]
[D. Extra 200% increase in deliciousness]
[E. Save: 20% chance to craft food without consumption (fixed stats cannot be increased)]
This time, Chen Ye's luck didn't seem to be very good, and he didn't have a particularly rare branch attribute, but in comparison, the "saving" characteristic was more cost-effective, so Chen Ye also chose this option, and the sub-skill of "Cooking" also successfully entered the mastery level, and at the same time evolved to silver quality.
[Proficient in cooking G: quality silver; Cooking +30 (30% reduction in cooking time; 30% chance that the quality of the food will be increased by one level); 30% chance to get an additional one; 20% chance to double Deliciousness (Fixed Stat); Savings (fixed attribute)γ
After reaching "proficient in cooking", the ability to earn camp contributions is obvious, it only took one day for Chen Ye to brush the camp contribution to 23W, of which the "saving" feature is really indispensable, while triggering "saving", it can also continue to trigger "extra acquisition" and "quality improvement", Chen Ye even once made food 3 times in a row, all of which triggered the "saving" trait, which is completely for nothing to pick up more than 2000 camp contributions.
Just when Chen Ye arrived 20 miles outside Anding City with the troops, Lin Jianguo and Zeng Rong also successfully completed the task and came back, fortunately they listened to Chen Ye's words and hid in the dry well of the temple in time, in this favorable terrain environment, with Zeng Rong's excellent personal strength, he held the entrance for 2 hours, and then 4 evil soil puppets dug tunnels together, digging for more than ten hours, before escaping from the mountains, because there were not enough beasts and poisonous insects killed, the completion of this hidden task only reached 230%, It's a pity for Chen Ye, but it's already a very good result for Lin Jianguo.
Chen Ye had no choice but to take a regular side quest from the quartermaster, and after it was completed, he spent another 5W camp contribution and exchanged for 500 elite soldiers, and finally got together the regimental establishment, no way, this kind of soldier supplement is not enough to have camp contributions, and the corresponding tasks need to be completed, Chen Ye had to waste 1 branch ceiling.
Elite soldiers come with their own 38 big covers, the firepower of this rifle is obviously very difficult in the face of high-intensity combat, Chen Ye must not spend 10W camp contribution to replace more than 1000 soldiers with 79 micro * rush, and equipped with enough ammunition, the replaced 38 big cover Chen Ye did not waste all the money turned in and exchanged for camp contributions, after exchanging the 3 days of rations for the troops, the remaining camp contribution was just enough to exchange for 10 personnel carriers.
A troop carrier is fully loaded with 120 soldiers, Chen Ye can't make up so many troop carriers, so he can only let his soldiers squeeze in, he knows that this will affect the combat reaction ability, but now it is currently besieging Anding City, and there is no special battle plan, so there is no need for any combat reaction ability.
Lin Jianguo triggered the "Black Metal Square" and got the relevant information of the "Secret Realm", but it was only a vague direction, but Chen Ye used the oracle scroll to get the determined position, and at this time there was no time to wait any longer, there were only 5 days to complete Lin Jianguo's main quest, and it would take them at least 2 days to enter the secret realm and come out again, fortunately, the location of this secret realm was near the goal that Chen Ye set at the beginning, saving the time of running back and forth.
"Jianguo, you immediately lead all the troops now, march to this position together, and then find a suitable hidden place to station, don't alarm the imperial army guards in the enemy-occupied area, if necessary, sink all the transport vehicles to the bottom of the river, and then go up the mountain, the location of the secret realm is on this mountainside, Zeng Rong and I will go to Anding City for a trip, after the assassination Liu Guangcheng will drive the grain cart you hid to meet you, I estimate, if it goes well, it will only take half a day, and we can meet on this mountain, Don't be idle when you arrive at the destination, command the soldiers to build a public office, intercept the river, and store water for 2 days, so let's set off quickly at night, if Sun Xingwu finds out, it's not easy to explain. Chen Ye laid out the battle plan on the map.
Lin Jianguo drove 10 personnel carriers and left quickly with 2,000 soldiers, the people on duty thought that she had a special combat mission, so they didn't stop her, Chen Ye left a letter for Sun Xingwu here, and then turned on sneaking and went around the camp, Zeng Rong was even taller, and it was difficult for ordinary soldiers to find her traces.
Ten minutes later, Chen Ye and Zeng Rong entered Anding City, although Anding City is like a great enemy, the whole city is on guard, but the soldiers of the faction warlords are used to being powerful, and the usual discipline is very lax, it is now 3 o'clock in the morning, most of the soldiers are dozing, they actually know that the Nationalist Army will not attack at this time, after all, now Liu Guangcheng's internal divisions are very big, they already know that the Nationalist Army wants to take over the idea of Anding City peacefully, some people agree, but Liu Guangcheng himself is very opposed, This is also expected, even if the generals and officials of the warlord district join the national army, their positions will not change much, and Liu Guang himself is likely to be hollowed out, or even become a prisoner.
