By the time Meg emerged from the city lord's castle, it was already close to noon. Due to the fact that he had pasted a leave of absence notice on his door, he changed his clothes before visiting a few detective agencies and news agencies to provide some information, as well as buy some information.
As expected, I've attracted a lot of interest after making such a high-profile appearance yesterday. I can't reveal Noah Gould's name for now, but some people will most likely spread the news even further. All I have to do is wait for the young master of the Barkley Family to come knocking on my door. Meg tore the piece of paper in his hand into shreds before tossing them into a nearby ditch. He then entered an alley and changed back into his own clothes. He found a random noodle shop and had a bowl of tasteless noodles before preparing to go home.
"Ding! System has issued a new mission: please head to the food market and purchase the ingredients required for three dishes. Requirements: all of the ingredients purchased must be of the highest quality in the entire food market! If the mission is successful, 0.5 strength point will be rewarded, and if the mission is failed, 0.5 strength point will be deducted. "
Right at this moment, the system's voice suddenly sounded.
"Hmm?" Meg stopped in his tracks with a perplexed expression. "System, aren't you a vegetable seller? Why are you suddenly asking me to buy ingredients from other places? This doesn't conform to your concept of selling vegetables. Furthermore, the quality of the ingredients in the food market is far inferior to the ones you provide. If the restaurant were to suddenly change the quality of the ingredients, the customers would definitely immediately notice. "
"Only high-quality ingredients can create the most delicious food, and selecting high-quality ingredients is a basic skill for a chef. However, the host is clearly very lacking in this area. This mission is a supplementary mission for the trip to Rodu, so the host must master the ability to select ingredients before setting off for Rodu. During your stay in Rodu, the system will not provide you with any ingredients aside from condiments and spices, "the system's serious voice sounded.
"I see." Meg's expression also became a little serious. He already understood the system's intentions.
He had always relied on the system to provide him with the most perfect ingredients. Due to the fact that the restaurant was completely closed off from the public, even if someone were to suspect his source of ingredients, he could always find a way to evade them.
However, if he were to go to Rodu to celebrate the king's birthday, there was no way that he would be able to bring his own ingredients. Instead, he would have to use ingredients provided by others.
At this time, the selection of ingredients was undoubtedly a very important skill.
"0.5 Physique Points as a reward. It's rare for the system to be so generous. In that case, I won't stand on ceremony," Meg said with a smile. He rode his bicycle in the direction of the Wet Market.
Meg spent a silver coin to ask the guard at the entrance of the market to look after the bicycle for him. Then, he went straight into the market.
The food market in the Aden Square was the largest comprehensive food market in Chaos City. Almost all of the food that could be found in Chaos City could be found in this food market.
"Come, come, come! A freshly killed third-grade Black Rock Python! Beneath its rock-hard skin is tender and plump snake meat. If I miss this opportunity, I don't know when I'll be able to encounter it again! " A tall beastman stood beside a skinned python and yelled loudly. The python was as thick as a bucket and hung on the rack. It was more than ten meters long and was dripping with blood. It looked a little scary.
"A squirrel that's alive and kicking. It's an excellent choice whether to kill it for barbecue or raise it as a pet. There are only three left!" One of the elves was carrying a cage in his hand. Inside the cage were three squirrel-like creatures that were jumping up and down. They looked quite clever and cute, attracting the attention of a few children who were standing to the side to watch.
"The boss ran away with his sister-in-law, so we don't have any money to pay our workers. We can only sell our first-grade Magic Beast Mantis Shrimps! 150 copper coins per catty until they are sold out! " A few dark-skinned middle-aged men were holding banners with pots of red freshwater prawns in front of them. They were shouting the slogan in tears.
Meg looked at the mantis shrimps, which were comparable in size to Australian lobsters, waving their large pincers. They really do look quite naughty. However, this slogan sounded a little familiar.
"Be careful! The turkey is coming! " At this moment, a nervous cry sounded. A turkey, which was as tall as a person, suddenly rushed out of a shop. It was burning with flames as it rushed along the passage.
A bare-chested big man with a knife in his hand chased after it. He shouted to be careful, and his face was full of anxiety. The people along the way hurriedly got out of the way. The market suddenly became a mess. The turkey was a Magic Beast. If they were touched by it, ordinary people wouldn't be able to bear it.
Meg happened to be in the passage. He looked at the turkey running wildly. Then, he looked at the old man and old woman behind him who were supporting each other. He frowned.
The turkey was an ingredient for braised chicken. The first time he went out to hunt, he was almost killed by the turkey. It was very dangerous, and it was even more dangerous in this crowded market.
The management of the market had already run in this direction. The passers-by were also ready to take action, but for the old couple behind Meg, it might be too slow.
The fiery breath had already hit them in the face. The flamingo's body was burning with red flames, and its slightly open mouth was flashing with magma-like red liquid.
"Lend me a knife," Meg reached out and took a knife from the knife rack of the uncle who was selling kitchen knives, and took a step forward.
The knife flashed, and Meg had already passed by the turkey.
The head of the turkey flew high and then rolled to the ground. The fierce turkey rushed forward two steps and then fell to the ground. The flames on its body also disappeared.
"Hoo ~"
The chicken butcher who came with the knife breathed a long sigh of relief. If something happened, then he wouldn't be able to survive in this market.
"Brother, you are really skilled in killing chickens!" The big man looked at Meg and gave him a thumbs up with gratitude.
"Practice makes perfect, practice makes perfect." Meg cupped his hands and then returned the knife to the uncle who was completely stunned. He smiled and said: "The knife is very good, thank you."
"You're welcome, you're welcome!" The uncle quickly shook his head.
Suddenly, there was a burst of applause. Everyone looked at Meg with appreciation. Many people came forward and began to ask the price of the knife.
Meg smiled and then continued to stroll in the market. Meg had been to this market several times. Every time, he was dazzled by the dazzling array of magical beast ingredients. If these things were placed on earth, they would be protected wild animals, and their level would not be low.
