Chapter 28 Soul Seasoning
Chen Qi pulled out the bag of spices from under the cupboard.
There are four spice bags in total, namely pepper, black sesame, cumin, and devil pepper.
Chen Qi counted them and found that the total weight was about 30 kilograms, which was a pretty good amount.
As a country of merchants and industry, Bei had a lot of spices circulating.
But the spices in Monster Kitchen are relatively rare, especially black sesame and chili pepper.
There are not many peppers in Beiguo, and most pepper-related products need to be imported from the neighboring Golden Flower and Bird Kingdom.
In Bei country, only large restaurants use chili peppers.
Chen Qi recalled the prices of spices in Bei State.
Pepper and cumin are a little expensive, while black sesame is relatively expensive.
The devil pepper is the hottest pepper among all the peppers. It is more than ten times more expensive than ordinary peppers and is a very expensive spice!
Chen Qi weighed the devil pepper and thought that if he could find a good seller, he could probably sell it for more than 100,000 shells.
A pretty good harvest!
Chen Qi rubbed his hands happily, he had never had much money.
There's no way. The things I got before were things I couldn't bear to sell.
Now finally there are some things that can be exchanged for money.
However, considering that he would be promoted to chef soon, he had to keep some of these spices for himself.
Moreover, the food in Maro Town, or in other words, the entire Witch Sea, cannot be considered good. Many dishes are just served with a little salt.
He could finally have something delicious to eat.
After cleaning out the monster's kitchen, Chen Qi carried a large bag and crawled out from the crack entrance on the flip-belly fish.
Tick-tick!
The weather is still cloudy and it's raining again...
The moment he came out, raindrops hit his face.
The wind that whispers like a monster still rages across this ocean.
The rift tide is far from over, and there will be more and more strange things in the sea.
"With this weather, when we get back, Maro Town will probably be bustling again."
Feel the sea breeze blowing across every part of your body.
And at night, there will be more terrifying monsters.
But now he has a boat that can shelter him from the wind and rain, so at least he won't be drenched by the rain anymore.
Chen Qi threw the bag of spices onto his small houseboat. The heavy bag made his boat shake.
A nice income!
Chen Qi walked into the boat house, set the direction, and took out the most important thing he got from the crack:
The pass to the extraordinary road, the chef career card.
The first-level career card, as the initial career card, can be digested without any additional conditions as long as the spiritual awakening is achieved.
Chen Qi knew the effect of the chef profession, but he had never obtained the precious hunter's fire.
The Hunter's Fire could enhance his extraordinary powers from level one to level four, but he didn't know what the enhancement was specifically.
Chen Qi bit his finger and the blood dripped onto the chef's occupation card.
As the blood slowly soaked the entire occupation card, the occupation card suddenly twisted and melted, and finally turned into blood and flowed into the body.
A burning sensation surged through my body.
More and more illusions appeared in my mind.
[Digesting…]
Chen Qi closed his eyes. In the dim light, he was standing in the dark and boundless ocean.
I lowered my head, and as the waves slowly soaked over my ankles, a pillar for standing slowly appeared under my feet.
His blood jumped out of his heart, flowed down his abdomen and thighs, and carved a "cup" pattern on the pillar.
"call……"
The burning sensation in his body slowly disappeared and Chen Qi opened his eyes again.
Before his eyes, the wonderful reminder appeared again.
[You have embarked on the path of transcendence and become a 'chef'. ]
[Your chef skill learning comprehension increases, and you gain the "Extraordinary Cooking" skill. ]
[You are now at the starting point of the extraordinary road, with a +3 increase in physique, +3 in inspiration, and a boost in physical limit and total spiritual power. ]
Chen Qi felt the changes in his body.
There is now a 'Chef' column in his panel.
[With the blessing of the Hunter's Ember, you gain the additional skill "Soul Seasoning". ]
The Hunter's Embers actually gave him an extra skill.
Soul seasoning? Is it to extract the soul and make seasoning?
Chen Qi checked his career panel.
【chef
Level: One
Appearance: Cup
Skill:
Chef's Insight: You will learn cooking-related skills more efficiently.
Extraordinary cooking: You are a natural chef and you have mastered the methods of extraordinary cooking.
The ingredients you cook will have a stronger food effect than those of ordinary people who don't understand gourmet food and nutrition.
Soul Seasoning Lv1: You can turn your spiritual power into seasoning and sprinkle it on the food to stimulate the original deliciousness of the extraordinary ingredients. While stimulating the deliciousness of the food, it also stimulates the nutrition inside it, making it easier to digest.
Note: Extraordinary cooking can increase the effect of food by about 20%, and soul seasoning can increase the effect of food by about 10%. 】
Isn't it about making seasoning out of the soul? Chen Qi muttered.
This was just a first-level skill, not what he imagined, extracting a person's soul and making it into seasoning.
But as a first-level skill, the effect of soul seasoning is already quite good.
And adding flavor is very important in the chef world.
At this time, Chen Qi blinked and realized that soul seasoning was actually an upgradeable skill!
It takes one hundred spiritual points...
He gained nearly two hundred spiritual points in the Monster Kitchen.
upgrade.
[Soul Seasoning Lv2: You can combine spiritual seasoning and spices and sprinkle them together to stimulate the deliciousness of the spices while stimulating the power of the food.
Description: A true chef is never limited to ingredients. Even stinky shoes and stinky feet can become a delicacy with the blessing of soul seasonings and spices!
The delicacies cooked with the seasoning of the soul will eventually make the picky eaters blush, and feel the joy from the depths of their bodies and the trembling from the depths of their souls!
Note: On the basis of the original, the deliciousness is further improved, and the food effect is increased by about 5%. 】
15%, this is a small increase in the hunter's fire!
Morning inspiration comes from the joy in my heart.
Nearly half of the chef's strength lies in 'Superb Cooking' which increases the effect of food by 20%.
As an additional skill, soul seasoning can also increase by 15%, which adds up to 35%.
This is already a considerable improvement, equivalent to adding a little chef to the profession of chef.
If combined with enough extraordinary ingredients, his improvement would definitely be like taking drugs.
He can match the hard work of others working out day and night just by eating.
Next, Chen Qi looked at the second important part of the extraordinary profession, the professional mission.
[Cooking: You can gain spiritual points by cooking a delicious dish.
Note: The number of spiritual points depends on the deliciousness of the food you cook, and is refreshed once a day. 】
A chef's job is very simple, that is to cook.
In the New Day, career tasks are very important and are the main source of spiritual points for many people.
If the performance is good enough, the profession can also obtain special enhancements.
For example, a chef’s extraordinary cooking skills cannot be upgraded through spiritual points, but can only be upgraded through continuous cooking.
For high-level extraordinary people, professional tasks are also an important way to stabilize their rationality.
Therefore, you can even see experienced weapon masters selling silver-scale breastplates, or big guys who can see through the stars and mysticism on the street, giving you free divination.
etc--
Chen Qi suddenly realized something.
Soul seasoning can increase the deliciousness of food, and the key to the chef's task is also the deliciousness of food.
Doesn't this mean that even if his cooking skills are terrible, he can still complete his daily tasks easily?
The bonus that Hunter's Embers provided to first-tier professions was even stronger than he had imagined.
“Even leather shoes can become delicious…”
What if it was delicious?
Roasted lamb legs, stir-fried beef, pan-fried fish...
Chen Qi looked at the refrigerator. He just happened to own a rare golden-scale fish.
He remembered the description in the book that the meat of the golden scale fish was delicate, as smooth as silk and melted in the mouth.
If you grill it, you can give it a crispy, slightly charred skin.
There was saliva at the corner of Chen Qi's mouth.
His imagination has improved a bit.
Chen Qi looked towards his houseboat.
As a travel ship, it has a simple pot, but no equipment for making fire, nor the most basic seasoning such as salt.
"Let's talk about it after we return!"
Chen Qi gently turned the steering wheel, changed the direction of the boat, increased speed, and headed towards the town of Maro.
Time passed little by little, and before we knew it, the sky was dyed a warm orange-red by the afterglow of the day.
Chen Qi walked out of the boat house. From this position, he could already see the lighthouse.
As night approaches, the lighthouse keeper has already lit the lighthouse on the huge lighthouse to show the way for the returning ships.
Chen Qi turned his head and looked to the left, and saw a large number of fishing boats passing by him.
Instructor An and Mayor Maro have instructed that in the coming days, we must return before the moon rises.
After the rift tide arrives, night will be the time for monsters.
Boom boom boom——
The huge roar of steam mixed with the noise of people rang in his right ear.
Chen Qi turned his head and looked to the right. A huge steel structure was slowly approaching him.
A huge steel ship was already on the same course as his small houseboat.
The two boats sailed side by side towards the town of Maro.
"Large ships..."
Chen Qi raised his head and looked at the huge creature.
Compared to this huge ship, his small houseboat was like a shrimp.
Some fresh shell damage could be seen on the hull, and thick smoke seemed to still be emitting from it.
On the boat, fully armed hunters can be seen walking by. Each of them is well-equipped and carries a heavy backpack. They are obviously extraordinary people who specialize in exploring cracks.
At the top of the ship, a shell flag flutters in the sea breeze.
"It is a large merchant ship officially recognized by Bei State. Judging from its aura, there are many powerful transcendents aboard."
Chen Qi identified the ship in front of him.
On the Witch Sea, the combat effectiveness of merchant ships is not low. Sometimes, they are even stronger than the navy.
But what are such a large merchant ship with so many fully armed hunters doing in Maro Town?
Chen Qi was thinking.
"Hello! Hello! Can you hear me?"
At this moment, a young and sunny guy on the boat waved to him.
"Um?"
Chen Qi looked at the young man who called him.
The other person was wearing an expensive set of steam armor, with a large sword with a golden handle on his back, and had flowing golden hair.
A little familiar...
Chen Qi narrowed his eyes.
The other party seems to be a very famous person in Marlow Town:
Mayor Maro's son, a sunny and cheerful boy, a first-level extraordinary recruit, Little Maro.
Almost everyone in town knew the young man.
However, Chen Qi is not famous in Maro Town. He is just a poor, helpless and weak patient with sea monster disease.
Little Malo has been away from home for many years. He knows very little about Malo Town and rarely interacts with people of the same age in Malo Town.
The other party probably doesn't know him.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Qi asked, the other party seemed to have a lot to say.
Little Ma Luo looked at Chen Qi with interest:
"Are you from our town of Marlow?"
“I guess so…”
When Xiao Ma Luo heard the affirmative answer, he immediately showed an excited expression:
“Actually, I have some questions for you, and they’re not for nothing.
Well, I will tell you what I saw and heard about the Flower Witch at sea.
This is witch news, it will be a big news in the White Dove Times tomorrow!!
Then I'll tell you this shocking news and you answer two questions for me, how about that? "
It's about the witch again...
Chen Qi touched his chin. The enthusiasm of the witch was almost overshadowing the enthusiasm of the Black Whale Group in searching for treasure.
In the early stages of the game, no player had ever seen a real witch.
Why does it feel like the news about the witch is following him... Chen Qi complained in his heart.
However, as the protagonist of the Witch Sea region, it can be said that witches’ legends are everywhere.
This was not surprising. What made him more curious was what questions this little Maro from Maro Town had to ask him.
Chen Qi thought for a while and replied:
"Yes, if the questions you ask are not difficult math problems or something like that."
