Chapter 421: Legendary Pots, Association Shocked
"I'll be watching while you cook the food."
Ander acted like a chef, stroking his beard, and said calmly, "If things go wrong, I will help you... But then you will fail the trial!"
Zuanya was surprised and said, "Can the pot explode while cooking? Is it that dangerous?"
Chef Ander, who looked like a catfish, heard the squirrel's complaint and said calmly, "Because the eggs from Gullinka, the goat milk from Hellend, and the pig heart from Sahlimnir are all legendary creatures, the magic contained in them can easily conflict with each other... If they are stewed in a big pot, it is very common for explosions to occur."
"So..." Ander looked at Ye Zhi, "How to deal with the magic in the ingredients is also a crucial part of the trial!"
Yeats nodded, indicating that he understood Ander's advice.
As we all know, cooking is like making medicine, and frying a pot or something like that is a common thing!
"What utensils do I use to cook? Arenil?"
Ye Zhi looked at the particularly eye-catching black iron pot behind Ander. The flawless diamonds inlaid on the handles on both sides of the pot were shining brightly.
Ander cautiously took a half step back, as if protecting this treasure, and said unhappily: "What are you thinking? Of course you use the pot you brought with you to cook the food! Don't tell me that as a food chef, you don't even have your own kitchen utensils!"
Yeats did prepare kitchen utensils, but compared with Arenil, they were not even scrap copper or rotten iron. It was very stressful to use them to accommodate three legendary ingredients, so he needed to pay more attention when cooking.
Fortunately, the magic of the Minerva Fountain is mild and can balance the medicinal properties of these ingredients.
"Understood."
Yeats took out a complete set of simple cooking utensils from Mammon's ring, set them up on the spot, and prepared to cook.
"I'll start now!"
call--
A golden flame of judgment rose from the stove.
Ye Zhi carefully controlled the power of the Flame of Judgment, almost at a ratio of one thousandth, carefully controlling the temperature.
The Flame of Judgment has the characteristic of "sealing". The target ignited by the Flame of Judgment cannot use most of its own blessings and magic. It is also a suitable choice to use it to deal with the disordered magic on food.
"Call me later. I don't want to see you get upset..."
The chef Ander pretended to close his eyes and rest, but he was actually secretly observing Yeats.
This young human who had participated in the trial after a thousand years had already surprised Ander. After all, he had completed the difficult task in just one day, collected the ingredients of the three sacred beasts, and was even safe and sound! Considering the violent tempers of the rooster and the goat of Glinkenby and Hellend, it was a great feat to take their eggs and goat milk without being kicked or pecked! Of course, when facing an apprentice, the chef would always have some bad temper of a master... such as showing off.
Ander squinted one eye and looked away with the other, closely following Yeats' cooking process, and was once again filled with wonder.
What kind of fire is this?
Sulfur fire? The Creator's heavenly fire, the sinful fire of purgatory?
Using heavenly fire to cook?
Good boy, you are really good, you are generous at the first try! Ander remembered that he could only use the remaining flames from the Vulcan forging iron to cook, and compared it with Yeats's unique heavenly fire, he couldn't help but feel a little envious.
Immediately, in order to ease the complicated emotions, Ander cleared his throat and took the initiative to speak:
"Since you have good talent, I will do you a small favor... If you need water from the Ice Wave River, I will fetch it for you."
"The Ice Wave is the collective name for the twelve large rivers that flow out from the Inexhaustible Spring. The water from these rivers is used to cook food and can harmonize the magic of the ingredients." Ander explained patiently.
"Thank you, senior, but it's not necessary." Ye Zhi said kindly, "I have Minerva's spring water, which is better than the ordinary river water taken from the Ice Wave."
If it is water from an inexhaustible spring, its effect will definitely be more outstanding than that of the Minerva Fountain.
But if it is divided into twelve major rivers...then the effect will be diluted a lot.
Yeats's unintentional words fell into Ander's ears, making him feel even more complicated.
Fountain of Minerva? Good, good, you came prepared, afraid that you can't take away my cauldron!
Ye Zhi keenly noticed that Ander's face behind him seemed to have darkened a lot, and there was a hint of resentment lingering around, but his attention was completely focused on cooking, so he had no time to pay attention.
Using pig heart, goat milk and eggs, Yeats planned to steam a pot of egg custard. He cut the pig heart into cubes and used goat milk to remove the unpleasant smell from the pig heart.
Knock knock knock——
With a flick of the knife, the golden pig heart on the chopping board was instantly broken into pieces.
Yeats then marinated the golden diced pork heart with white pepper, cardamom and Herend goat's milk.
In order to make the taste more distinct, Yeats also added minced snake meat to the egg custard, which also made the taste even better.
Seeing the ingredients Ye Zhi took out, Ander didn't care about his master style anymore. He came up to Ye Zhi and said in surprise:
"Hydra snake meat? Where did you get it?"
"Of course, after hunting the Hydra, cut off its tail!" Diamond answered for Yeats who was concentrating on his work.
Witnessing the whole process of Yeats cooking, Ander's beard was almost broken by stroking it, and he thought:
"I have to admit...he does have some skills in cooking."
Remove lid from pot.
Steam rises from the pot and the aroma fills the air.
Smelling the rich aroma, Ander's eyes widened and he swallowed.
Ingredients from three legendary creatures, paired with the snake tail of Upper Hydra and the blessings of various gods... This ordinary-looking egg custard is made with such luxurious ingredients that even Ander couldn't help but feel greedy.
Ye Zhi brought this "Minced Meat and Egg Custard" to Ander and said with a smile, "Please taste it, Senior!"
Ander sucked his saliva and nodded:
"I watched the whole process of your cooking... To be honest, your skills are not inferior to mine!"
"Next, let's see how it tastes..." As he said that, Ander picked up the scalding hot dish, leaned over to look at the glittering golden egg custard in the soup bowl, stretched out his long tongue to sip the taste, then tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp!
bite--
It seemed as if a flash of inspiration came to me.
Ander's eyes widened in shock.
The egg custard has distinct textures and a wonderful umami flavor brought by the fusion of multiple ingredients. The salty and fresh taste is further stimulated by the heat. The egg custard melts in the mouth. The tender and smooth pig heart and the delicate eggs bring a different experience. The spices and goat milk give the whole dish a soul-like aroma!
After closing his eyes for a long time, Ander sighed deeply and shook his head, saying, "Even if I make it myself, I may not be able to surpass you..."
"What's more, I am just a consciousness left behind by the Godly Chef."
Ander opened his eyes, his sparkling eyes full of sincerity and admiration, and murmured, "As far as I'm concerned... you've surpassed me... to a higher level!"
Seeing Ander's reaction.
Yeats and Zuanya looked at each other.
"Well, I should take half the credit this time, right?" Zuanya asked for credit.
"I understand. Next time if we encounter two legendary monsters, I will send you to deal with them!" Ye Zhi nodded.
Zuan Ya laughed dryly and muttered, "That's not something that can be solved every time... If I'm not careful, I'll be in trouble..."
At this time.
Yeats found that the light in Ander was gradually dimming.
Boom boom
Even the entire Valhalla was shaking violently!
Ye Zhi was surprised, but saw Ander looking at him amiably and nodded:
"It is reasonable for you to become the new master of Arenil!"
As he spoke, the black iron cauldron behind him rose up out of thin air, wrapped in flames, and quickly rushed towards Ye Zhi!
The cauldron fell with a sound like a falling meteor, which was extremely spectacular. Yeats was shocked and afraid that the cauldron would fall directly on him. However, as Arenil fell, its size gradually decreased.
By the time it came in front of Ye Zhi, Arenil was only the size of a palm, and Ye Zhi could just hold it in his palm.
"Arenil has the ability to change size at will."
Ander's figure gradually disappeared, and his voice was filled with relief and satisfaction.
"Beyond that... you need to explore on your own..."
Ye Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded to Ander, "Thank you, senior!"
"I am the one who should thank you... Thank you for fulfilling a wish for me." Ander said with a smile and hope, "Next, I hope you can cook more delicacies with Arenil... Through food, you can evoke the indelible things in the heart of every life..."
Ender's figure completely disappeared.
The entire trial space is also collapsing.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Before the earth shook, the sky was eroded into pieces and the fairy palace collapsed.
A space portal quietly opened, stretching across the broken sky.
"Yezhi, we must retreat quickly!" Mammon's nervous voice sounded, "Ander's will in Arenieri has completely disappeared, and this small plane is about to collapse. If we don't rush out, we will be in big trouble!"
Looking at the exquisite little pot in his hand, Ye Zhi put it back into the ring, then looked at the portal under the sky, nodded and said:
"Let's go, take this big pot and go back for a snack!"
…
Material plane.
Food Tower, top floor.
Guildmaster Varian stared at the legendary cookware with his eyes wide open. He saw the gemstones on both sides of the cast iron pot glowing brightly, and the pot was ablaze with fire. At the same moment, the surrounding barrier "cracked" and broke! Rumble -
The commotion caused by the rupture of the barrier spread to the entire Food Tower. Every member of the association in the tower noticed the abnormality on the top floor and fell into uproar and commotion.
"What's going on?"
"It seems like something happened on the top floor!"
"That's where Arenil is sealed! Quickly call the president!"
Varian had no time to pay attention to the vibrations from the outside world. His pupils contracted and he looked at the scene in front of him in shock.
Amidst the golden flames and gemstone light, a tall young man appeared in the space portal.
Arenil seemed to obey his call, bathed in flames, shrank rapidly, and then fell into his palm!
"That is to say..."
Varian's breathing became quickened involuntarily. He looked up at the young man in front of him and asked in a hoarse, stumbling voice:
"Duke Honeysuckle... My Lord... You, you passed the test of Arenil?!"
Ye Zhi lowered his head, glanced at the exquisite little pot in his hand, and smiled slightly.
"Not bad. I passed the test without much effort."
Varian's brain buzzed with blood, and he felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and he almost couldn't breathe.
I passed the trial of Arenil...without much effort?!
This is simply inhuman! Arenil is the treasure of the Food Association. Even if you really pass the trial, it will take at least ten days and a half months, and you will have to go through hardships! I have been waiting here for less than an hour... and Arenil belongs to you? !
Varian took a deep breath and asked Ye Zhi about the details of the trial.
Ye Zhi briefly explained his encounter with the divine chef Ander and the trial process.
After listening to Ye Zhi's description, Varian's expression became more and more exciting.
"So, the dishes you cooked put the great chef Ander to shame, and then he gave Arenil... to you?"
Ye Zhi said modestly: "I can't say that I am inferior to him... I can only say that he thinks I am qualified to use Arenil."
Varian was speechless and for a moment he didn't know how to announce this to everyone in the association.
He originally thought that Ye Zhi would give up when he found out that the trial was so difficult, but he didn't expect that he would not only be recognized by the first president of the association, but also pass the trial of Arenil in one fell swoop!
Now that things have come to this, the only option left is for Duke Yeats to take Arenil away...
But what would happen if there was no Arenil's Food Association?
Varian was in a difficult situation.
Ye Zhi saw Varian's expression and understood what he was thinking. He suggested, "President, why don't you report this matter to His Majesty Louis first? After all, this is also a major event concerning the Roland Kingdom."
Varian suddenly realized, and was surprised and happy. He said with a grateful tone: "Your Excellency the Duke... please bring Arenil with you and temporarily stay at the Food Association. I will report this to His Majesty right away!"
That afternoon.
The news that Ye Zhi had passed the trial, lifted the seal, and obtained Arenil spread throughout the association.
A large number of food masters were shocked and said that they thought the story of Arenil was just a rumor, but they didn't expect that the association really had this artifact! "So, Duke Yezhi is also a master food master?"
"Unbelievable! He is obviously a bard, how come he is so good at the art of eating?"
"Genius cannot be understood by common sense. I support Duke Yeats to become the next president of the association!"
"I agree!"
Varian was shocked when he heard this in the palace, and thought, Oh no, it's coming for me!
Since the matter was of great importance, Varian continued to stay in the palace and report the matter to King Roland Louis in person.
In the study.
The young monarch in the golden robe put down the official document and looked at Varian with surprise, who was lowering his head and brows.
"Yezhi... acquired Arenil?"
"Yes." Varian said with a wry smile, "I really could not have imagined... that the Duke... is truly a master of food!"
Louis was stunned for a moment. Not to mention Varian, even he didn't expect that Ye Zhi was good at this field!
Immediately, Louis laughed and said, "He always comes up with something new... Arenil has been left in its original place, just a decoration. I believe it will also have a brilliant performance in Yeats' hands."
In the Kingdom of Roland, Arenil is a useless object with only symbolic value because no one can use it.
And if Yeats used Arenil to defeat Hastings.
Louis' eyes flickered slightly, and he looked to the longer-term future... This would be a great investment to strike a blow to the arrogance of the Holy See...
Varian said cautiously, "Your Majesty, what you mean... is to let Yezhi take Arenil away."
"What else?" Louis raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you still want to go back on your word?"
Varian shook his head quickly: "I dare not! I will return to the Food and Beverage Association and prepare a dinner to congratulate Duke Yeats for passing the Trial of Erenil!"
"Go ahead."
Louis lowered his eyes, his gaze fixed on the document, but his thoughts gradually wandered, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
In the final, what kind of performance will Ye Zhi have at the moment... I am really looking forward to it...
