Chapter 142 Infinite Resurrection (6) - Chased by Chickens
Ning Shu estimated that the opponent did not have any special skills or items, otherwise they would not have been able to gain an advantage.
At that moment, she realized how disadvantageous it would be to survive here without these two things.
Talent skills can't be compensated for, but props can. She decided not to wait for Li Mengqi for now. She could explain things later; she had more important things to do right now.
That means going to run dungeons to get points and items. If she gets a really powerful item, that would be great too.
After daybreak, Ning Shu said to Lin Huan, "Brother Huan, let's go run a dungeon."
Lin Huan asked blankly, "What's a dungeon?"
He seemed to have heard the system mention something about a "trial instance," but he didn't know what it was.
It's not that he's ignorant; he had only recently been discharged from the military and hadn't had the chance to play games or read novels before.
Ning Shu: "It's a game where you can get points and items. We're going to play it anyway, so we might as well do it sooner rather than later. If we get more points, we can go into the safe zone."
Lin Huan asked in confusion, "Safe Zone? I saw those words written on the gate, what's that for?"
He had wanted to ask for a long time, but seeing that Ning Shu was in a bad mood, he didn't dare to.
Ning Shu didn't want to go into as much detail as Li Mengqi had, so she casually said, "It probably just means it's safer to stay inside."
Lin Huan agreed: "Yeah, that makes sense. It's definitely safer inside than outside, there are fewer hooligans there."
Actually, no, it's a dog-eat-dog world inside too.
However, Ning Shu didn't want to say too much to him, afraid of scaring him, and simply said, "Let's go."
Lin Huan didn't know where to go, but he was completely lost. He would just go wherever the girl told him to.
Ning Shu led him along the ring road, recalling the assembly line copy that Li Mengqi had mentioned before.
It's said that the dungeon isn't too difficult, making it perfect for her, who's completely powerless, and for the bewildered Lin Huan.
She remembered that the dungeon was somewhere near the Tooth Shadow Tunnel. Even if she couldn't enter that dungeon, entering the Reversal Middle School dungeon would be fine.
After all, that dungeon doesn't require skills, and the reward items aren't lethal.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned; she seemed to have never been able to successfully enter the instance she wanted to go to.
Welcome to the "Mega Kitchen" non-fixed instance.
[Completion Mission: Successfully complete 3 missions.]
[Customs clearance time: 2 days.]
[Initial supplies: None.]
We wish you a pleasant gaming experience!
Ning Shu was surprised that it was a non-fixed instance; she recalled the previous Desert Tracing instance.
Non-fixed dungeons seem to have some major flaws, such as having to carry mummies.
The kitchen... I hope there won't be any corpses or anything like that to carry around.
The moment she opened her eyes, her pupils dilated in shock. No, was that kitchen knife, which was as tall as a two-story building and as wide as a four-story building, for real?
The gleaming blade of the cleaver reflected the tiny figures of her and Lin Huan.
"Girl, is this... a game?" Lin Huan's voice, sounding like she was questioning her existence, came from beside her.
"I guess... I guess so." Ning Shu felt like she couldn't even speak properly.
The "ju" in "juju" doesn't mean "a lot," but rather its literal meaning? She really wants to thank her.
Looking at this "giant" kitchen knife, Ning Shu felt that even cutting vegetables would be difficult for her, let alone completing three tasks.
But where is the task? Ning Shu looked around and then saw a piece of paper on the wall with a menu of what to do written on it.
She glanced at the menu and saw that there were five dishes in total: scrambled eggs with tomatoes, poached chicken, stir-fried pork with chili peppers, boiled tofu, and grilled fish.
Does that mean they need to complete three of the dishes to pass the level? But where are the ingredients?
Lin Huan: "Wow~ such big tomatoes and eggs!"
Ning Shu looked over at Lin Huan and also noticed what he was talking about; it was very big, even bigger than theirs.
The crucial point is that these things were placed on another table, while they were at the sink.
Is this any different from having mice cook ingredients? Mice can climb up and down freely; they're even worse off than mice.
Another hellish dungeon, that was Ning Shu's first thought. Maybe she should revert to a previous save? Luckily, there was a kitchen knife nearby.
No, no, how can a person give up on life so easily? Life is life too, it should be cherished, that's right.
Ning Shu was brainwashing herself when she started discussing things with Lin Huan.
Ning Shu pointed to the menu: "Huan-ge, look over there is a menu. It's probably where we'll be given tasks. Let's pick three easy ones."
Lin Huan looked in the direction she was pointing and nodded in agreement: "Tomato and egg stir-fry, stir-fried pork with chili peppers, and boiled tofu, please."
Ning Shu agreed, choosing the same option as her, except that she didn't know where the pork specified for the stir-fried pork with chili peppers was.
The pots and pans are on their side, connected to the sink, while the ingredients are on another table.
But she was stumped about how to get to the other table. The table was too high, probably as high as a dozen stories. For her before, this would have been no problem.
But now she's so weak, even one floor could kill her. Climbing up and down is difficult enough, but to carry the ingredients over is just unbelievable.
Suddenly, they heard a clanging sound; it seemed like something was coming from under the table.
They rushed to the table and looked down, and wow... wow, what a huge pig! It looked like a dinosaur, and most importantly, it was alive, alive!
So, does the "pork" in the stir-fried pork with chili peppers refer to this pig? Does it mean they should slaughter it fresh?
The game developers really know how to play; it's no different from asking them to kill a dinosaur with their bare hands.
You have to understand, even if everything is normal, it's not easy for them to slaughter a pig, let alone in abnormal circumstances.
Ning Shu felt that killing a dinosaur—oh no, killing a pig—was a bit too difficult, so he decided to try something else.
What should we order instead? Boiled chicken or grilled fish? Wait a minute, the pork has to be freshly slaughtered, so does that mean we also have to freshly slaughter the chicken and fish?
"Cluck cluck cluck..." Just as I wished, a giant chicken appeared on the ground, and it was a hen.
Okay, so the poached chicken has to be freshly killed, and the grilled fish can be served fresh too.
Ning Shu wanted to discuss with Lin Huan which of the three animals to kill, but before she could finish speaking, she saw the hen spread its wings and fly directly onto their table.
The hen, perhaps hungry, lit up at the sight of them and chased after them.
"Run!" Lin Huan grabbed Ning Shu and ran.
"Giggle giggle."
They ran ahead, and the hen chased after them. The two were chased by the hen and had to hide everywhere, using the huge pot as cover.
Ning Shu thought this dungeon was amazing; forget about completing the mission, they'd be lucky to even survive!
Just as the hen was about to catch up with them, they ran to the sink. There was no way forward, and the two were filled with despair.
As a result, the hen slid down and landed on her rear end, knocking the two of them directly into the sink.
