Chapter 403: Rewards for higher levels!
One second, two seconds, three seconds, and it’s out of the pan.
Zhao Xiaojing looked at the duck, which was fried slightly brown on both sides, with tight skin and shiny oil. The corners of her mouth curled up, and the stone in her heart loosened a little.
Almost there.
"System, retreat."
The scene returns to the time when the oil is still hot. Zhao Xiaojing methodically turns on the fire and heats the oil...
Ding~
The system prompt sounded, amplified many times.
Zhao Xiaojing, who was immersed in the process of cooking the duck and had entered a flow state and forgotten everything, was suddenly startled.
【Random task completed】
[After system evaluation, the current chef level is: 42 (intermediate, ordinary expert, the maximum level is 100)]
[Congratulations to the host for completing the mission and leveling up again. Because of the host's superior understanding and extraordinary endurance demonstrated in controlling the heat and oil temperature, the two rewards are being combined to grant the host a level-up bonus.]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe for the representative dish of oil temperature and heat control - Fried Double Crispy! ]
Hmm? Quest? Recipe?
Zhao Xiaojing, who was suddenly interrupted, began to regain consciousness in a daze. It took her a few seconds to realize what had happened.
menu!
Still fried and crispy!
The legendary difficulty is extremely high, the pinnacle of cooking time!
Zhao Xiaojing fell into ecstasy.
"System, hit..."
Ding~
Zhao Xiaojing was just about to call the system to open the learning module and immediately observe the instructor's preparation of the fried double crisps when the system's prompt sounded again, interrupting Zhao Xiaojing's words.
【Main Quest Distribution】
[Main Quest: Advance in the Tuancheng Breakout Tournament.]
【Please select whether to accept】
【whether】
Is the competition about to begin? Zhao Xiaojing was stunned. After accepting the task, she quickly exited the virtual space and checked her text messages.
There was no text message notification, but when I glanced at the time the moment the screen lit up, I realized that I forgot to set the alarm, and it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon!
Although it's not time to go to work yet, everyone in the store is already there.
Zhao Xiaojing hurriedly packed up and went out.
"No, system, were you just reminding me to go to work?" Zhao Xiaojing, who was putting on shoes at the door, suddenly reacted.
Even though I was giving myself a reward, the system notification sound shouldn't be so loud, right? Normally, when a system notification isn't received, won't it automatically appear at the top of the system page like a floating window on a phone?
I was concentrating on practicing my cooking when suddenly there was a loud noise in my ear. It was so scary!
"System? System?" Zhao Xiaojing called out as she walked into the store.
However, the system started the normal operation of reading but not replying.
Zhao Xiaojing also immediately understood that silence was the correct answer.
"System, I'm just reminding you. Can't you just talk to me nicely? Why do you have to scare me with such a loud voice?"
"Although you are a system, a virtual product, your bad taste is too bad, isn't it?"
"Do you know that humans can die suddenly if they are suddenly frightened?"
"I'm telling you, men should observe male virtues, women also have female virtues, and the system should also have unified virtues. You're not observing unified virtues, do you understand?"
"There's a saying among humans: good intentions can lead to bad consequences. Although you don't have a heart, you have Satoshi. Satoshi is so cute. Can't you learn from him? If that doesn't work, have Satoshi remind me to go to work. Going to work is also within the scope of his shop assistant's responsibility."
"Hey, system, Xiaozhi is a considerate and cute type, so you are a cold and yin-yang type? That's not right... You comforted me last time... but that was only that time. The rest of the time you are still cold and yin-yang."
Zhao Xiaojing was in a good mood. Seeing that the system was pretending to be dead, she started to mutter to herself excitedly.
"Assigning me competition tasks is also to remind me to go to work, right? You know that I will go out and check my phone to confirm the official text message after accepting the task. But you are too roundabout. Your character is a bit twisted, tsk tsk."
[Host, please do not speculate on the system! ! ! ]
Hearing the distortion in the system, the system finally couldn't help but speak for itself.
Zhao Xiaojing immediately recognized a different sound from the usual one in the mechanical electronic sound, a sound of gnashing teeth and intolerance.
"Hahahahahaha!" Zhao Xiaojing burst into laughter immediately.
"Sister, are you so happy to be late?" At the door, Wu Kaile just came out from next door and saw Zhao Xiaojing approaching with inexplicable laughter.
"Xiao Wu, are you stealing food from the next door again? The two older sisters haven't started cooking the fried food yet." After teasing the system, Zhao Xiaojing became more interested. When she looked up and saw that it was Wu Kaile, she started a new round of teasing.
"Sister, I didn't!" Wu Kaile stared blankly, "I was helping Sister Geng carry the pig's feet from the stew pot!"
"Oh, you stole the pig's trotters. Eat less." Zhao Xiaojing patted Wu Kaile's shoulder and pushed the door open to enter the store.
"It's not that I really didn't cheat..." Wu Kaile said aggrievedly behind him.
Zhao Xiaojing, who was walking in front, instantly realized the joy that Su Yuchen usually enjoyed teasing others, and the smile on her lips deepened.
Entering the kitchen, three hardworking little bees had already put on their aprons and divided the dishes.
Zhao Xiaojing's expression instantly became serious.
The employees have already started working, and as a boss I can’t be so happy even though I’m late!
Zhao Xiaojing quickly washed her hands and started cutting vegetables with a tense smile.
"Junior sister...is your hand injured?" After cutting for a while, Yun Yongyuan pointed at Zhao Xiaojing's finger and asked cautiously.
"Are you having cramps?" Wan Yuyue heard Yun Yongyuan ask and also spoke cautiously.
"What injury..." Zhao Xiaojing looked puzzled. She looked down in the direction of Yun Yongyuan's finger and shut up instantly.
It turns out that when I was cutting vegetables, I always carefully raised my index finger!
It is the right index finger that you use to test the temperature of the oil pan!
I practiced in the virtual space for hundreds of hours in the afternoon, poured water on the duck thousands of times, and this finger was also exposed to the oil pan thousands of times and burned thousands of times. Although I won't be really burned outside the virtual space, the feeling of pain has formed muscle memory!
Damn muscle memory!
"Uh, it's okay." Zhao Xiaojing quickly put down the unique finger, held the knife again, and began to cut smoothly.
This time I felt that the speed of cutting vegetables was much faster.
"Are you really okay?" Yun Yongyuan looked at Zhao Xiaojing worriedly.
"Was it caught in the door?" Wan Yuyue asked.
"It's really okay, I wasn't pinched..." Zhao Xiaojing forced a smile awkwardly.
"Junior sister, you seem to be worried and unhappy when you come in. If you have something to say, just say it. Even if you are in a bad mood, just say it. Didn't you enlighten me last time?" Yun Yongyuan persisted.
"If you get caught in the door, you can apply some safflower oil." Nie Xiuqi rarely interrupted.
"No, really not. I, I just... I had a dream in the afternoon. In the dream, I put my hand into a frying pan. After I woke up, I subconsciously felt pain in my hand." Zhao Xiaojing explained stutteringly.
