Chapter 214 Come, Let Me Train You
A captive world of gourmet food.
"What? You want to quit?" Shi Meng, who had dark skin, stared at Xia Yu in front of him and said in disbelief, "Why do you want to quit? Are you dissatisfied with your salary? Then I'll give you a raise!"
"Stop, stop, stop, boss. I'm not dissatisfied with my current treatment. In fact, this treatment is already very good." Xia Yu waved his hands helplessly.
He thought that he just needed to come over and say something, why did Shi Meng react so strongly? If he had known that he could get a raise by saying he resigned, he would have said it earlier. Unfortunately, now he really wants to resign .
"Boss, you are very nice to me, but this is not my ambition. I want to be a gourmet, a gourmet who explores unknown ingredients!" Looking at Shi Meng in front of him, Xia Yu straightened his face and said seriously.
Hearing this, Shi Meng's expression gradually relaxed.
"You kid."
Then, he suddenly clenched his fist and punched Xia Yu in the chest with lightning speed, so fast that a shadow of the fist appeared.
“Bang!”
"Boss, your fists are so weak, they can't handle the ingredients well."
Xia Yu caught Shi Meng's fist with a smile, then slowly moved away.
Feeling the strength in Xia Yu's hand, the feeling as if he had hit a boulder, and the reaction speed that he couldn't even see clearly, Shi Meng's face changed slightly.
"You kid...when did you become so strong?"
"When you first came to my place, you were out of breath after working for half a day. What did you eat? You've changed so much."
"Hehe." Xia Yu loosened Shi Meng's fist and laughed, "I can become so strong, all thanks to me."
"You don't want to say it." Shi Meng also smiled and punched Xia Yu in the chest. "Then I wish you good luck. The road of a gourmet is very dangerous."
"Of course I know. After all, I saw it all when Alu was delivering the goods. If I didn't have the strength to defeat that kind of monster, I wouldn't think of becoming a gourmet."
"Oh?" Hearing Xia Yu's words, Shi Meng raised his eyebrows, "You mean, you can already defeat the prey brought by A Lu."
"Although I haven't fought it, it's pretty close." Xia Yu put his hands on his hips confidently.
"Hahaha, you've really changed a lot." Shi Meng patted Xia Yu's shoulder and laughed, "If you catch precious prey in the future, don't forget your former boss."
Hearing Shi Meng say this, Xia Yu already knew that the other party agreed to his resignation, and he also smiled and said: "Don't worry, I am not an ungrateful villain. I will always remember your kindness, boss."
"From now on, if I catch any precious prey, I will sell it to you, my boss, at a low price."
"Then I'm looking forward to your prey."
After agreeing to Xia Yu's resignation, Shi Meng turned and left, waving and laughing.
"You must stay alive."
"I know. For all the delicious food in the world, I will definitely not die so easily."
After resigning and saying goodbye to Shi Meng, Xia Yu put all his things into the chat group and left World Kitchen, the place where he had worked for a long time.
Because the gourmet black market has been somewhat turbulent recently, the World Kitchen has also been slightly affected, but that has nothing to do with Xia Yu.
At this moment, he has arrived at the rental company of the mountain climbing ladder house.
Due to Zebra's release from prison, there are almost no people here, with only a few staff members.
"Guest, would you like to take the climbing ladder house to the desert courtyard?"
"Yes, any questions?"
Looking at the shivering staff in front of him, Xia Yu asked casually.
The staff member first glanced around and made sure that there was no one around before quietly saying, "The most vicious criminal, Zebula, passed by here a few days ago. I heard that he was also going to the Desert Courtyard. You should wait a moment, sir."
As for Zebra... I didn't expect them to get here a few days ago, that's pretty fast.
In the world of gourmet food, Zebula, who is one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Gourmet like Alu, is a vicious criminal who is as vicious as a natural disaster. In this world where gourmet food is more important than anything else, he ate 26 species of creatures to extinction.
Although these 26 creatures are dangerous creatures that harm the environment or destroy the ecology and have no edible value, ordinary people do not know this, so Zebra is directly hailed as the most vicious criminal in this food world.
Now that he is out of prison, he has caused great turmoil in the world, just like a natural disaster that harms mankind. Even those countries that are still at war have stopped fighting and formed a military alliance in order to guard against Zebra.
Although Zebra's release from prison caused turmoil in the world, it also brought an end to the long-lasting war. Therefore, many people who suffered from the war sincerely thanked Zebra.
…
"It's okay. I'm not afraid. Please arrange a luxury apartment for me immediately."
Xia Yu smiled and took out a card and handed it to the staff. The card contained all his savings since he came into this world.
After becoming a gourmet, he no longer lacks money, so he doesn't need to save money like before.
The guests had said so before the meeting, so the staff did not insist. After sighing softly, they took the card and arranged a high-end apartment for Xia Yu.
The so-called mountain climbing ladder house is the only means of transportation to the "Desert Courtyard", the largest desert area in the human world. Travelers must pay the cableway usage fee and the rent of the cableway cabin to use this facility.
You need to stay in the cableway cabin on the way, so that you can use the cable to cross the Dust Valley where sandstorms are raging, and then reach the desert courtyard surrounded by the Dust Valley.
However, due to the war, the number of tourists dropped sharply, resulting in few people renting the mountain climbing houses, which are one of the tourist attractions.
Therefore, there was no need to make a reservation for the high-end apartment that Xia Yu wanted to rent. Anyone with money could rent it.
After a moment, the staff handed Xia Yu a key and a small booklet.
Xia Yu took the key and followed the instructions in the booklet and quickly found his luxury apartment.
After checking in, he extended an invitation to the zombie Xia Yu. Soon, a lavender figure appeared in the invisible air.
"Why is it so slow?" Zombie Xia Yu couldn't help but complain after he appeared, "If the mellow cola is taken away by A Lu and the others, our trip will be less fun."
"Huh? Why aren't you talking?"
After complaining, Zombie Xia Yu looked at the stunned Gourmet Xia Yu and waved in front of him.
"Ahem, it's okay."
Gourmet Xia Yu came back to his senses and looked at Zombie Xia Yu. He wanted to say something but stopped. After a little thought, he decided to ask a question.
"Why are you purple?"
Zombie Xia Yu: “…”
Does every newcomer who sees me ask this question: I am a zombie, what kind of zombie can still maintain its flesh color!
Well... the zombie Qiqi seems to be flesh-colored. Tsk, where did the flesh-colored zombie come from? This Qiqi is so lame.
A real zombie should be different from a living person, otherwise how can people tell that you are a zombie.
After complaining in his mind, Zombie Xia Yu narrowed his eyes and looked at Food Xia Yu with a face that asked for a beating: "Is this important? Are you discriminating against people of color?"
Gourmet Xia Yu: “…”
I remember you seemed not to be a human...
Suppressing the urge to complain, Xia Yu clicked the watch on his wrist and a light curtain was projected out.
"Let's discuss a plan first. The desert courtyard is quite large and there are many good things in it."
Zombie Xia Yu had no choice but to take out a bunch of junk food from his food red envelope and put it on the table.
"Let's discuss this while we eat. I remember it took quite a while to get to the desert courtyard."
The Desert Courtyard, with a total area of 39 million square kilometers, is the largest desert area in the world, about four times the size of the Sahara Desert.
In the desert courtyard, there are various kinds of sand seas, including rice desert formed by natural rice, brown sugar desert formed by sweet sugar, and other gourmet deserts.
In addition, there are resource deserts formed by coal and rare earths, gem deserts composed of gold sand and diamonds, etc. It is a complete sand paradise.
"Hey, let's say, why don't we go visit all these deserts?" After reading the introduction of all the deserts, Zombie Xia Yu said with a smile.
"I want the food sand in the food desert. The resources in the resource desert can be given to those two research freaks. Although the remaining gem desert has no value, it is also good as a collection."
"Ah, this..." Xia Yu was a little stunned, "But that won't give us enough time. We are already a little behind A Lu and his friends. If we visit all the deserts, we probably won't be able to finish the tour even if they take away the mellow cola."
"So we should catch up with them now."
Zombie Xia Yu chuckled, then opened the reinforced door of the cableway cabin. In an instant, a sandstorm came in, rustling in the luxury apartment.
"Hey, what are you doing~"
Suddenly, sand was sprayed all over his face, and Xia Yu, the gourmet, couldn't help but scream like a chicken.
"Of course we're going to the Desert Courtyard. Let me train you now. After all, you just got the novice gift pack, right?"
After saying that, Zombie Xia Yu unceremoniously grabbed Gourmet Xia Yu with his telekinesis, and then jumped directly from the cable car cabin. Below the cable car cabin was a bottomless sandy valley.
However, for Xia Yu and others who can fly, no matter how deep it is, it is not a problem, because they can fly anyway.
"If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have rented such an expensive apartment."
"Also, the beginner's gift pack clearly contains the usage memories of various abilities, so there is no need to practice them. You are just taking this opportunity to get back at me."
Gourmet Xia Yu, who was caught by the zombie Xia Yu, couldn't help but shout loudly before leaving the cable car cabin.
Of course, Zombie Xia Yu didn't hear a word of these words. How could he admit that this was revenge, revenge against the other party for complaining that he was purple?
Soon, Xia Yu's screams disappeared into the depths of the sand and dust, leaving only the lingering sound of the wind.
