In the blink of an eye, three days had passed since the last time he discussed the Food Festival with Ashina.
In these three days, the activities of the Gourmet Department continued as usual.
With Capella's help, the work of the Gourmet Department became much easier.
Capella still ate Mu Fan's cooking every morning, noon, and night. If Capella was not working for him, Mu Fan would really think that he was keeping Capella as his mistress.
"Mission: Celebrity Glory in the Culinary World. Get first place in the Food Festival and you will be rewarded with five fantasy points."
Because the Food Festival was about to start and he received this fantasy mission, Mu Fan worked even harder on the research of culinary techniques in these three days.
Not only did he not slack off like before, but he also temporarily abandoned leveling up in the game and changed his focus to collecting ingredients.
For example, he went to the fields to collect wheat, went to the forest to look for tomatoes, and went to the houses of NPCs to steal their cows or milk them …
He collected ingredients in all kinds of unexpected ways and spent an entire night filling up his backpack. Then, he went to the kitchen to start cooking and leveling up his culinary skills in preparation for the upcoming Food Festival.
Of course, this Food Festival was only a Japanese Food Festival, a mid-level culinary competition.
According to Ashina, a world-class Food Festival was a place where the God of Cookery was as common as the clouds.
However, to be able to get first place in this year's Food Festival in Japan was also an extremely difficult thing.
Although many world-class chefs looked down on Japan's Food Festival alone, Mu Fan was satisfied with this kind of Food Festival. He could get fans and money, and he could even see Ashina in her swimsuit. Such good things were hard to come by.
"Swoosh —"
In the game, after Mu Fan finished the last bowl of Koishi Mushi Douban. Suddenly, his body trembled and he felt a roar in his head. Superb culinary skills flooded into his mind like a tide, flashing like a slideshow.
At the same time as he received this memory, there was a sharp pain in his head as if a sharp awl was piercing it. Mu Fan held his head in pain.
It took about a minute for the information of the Level 5 Culinary Skill to fuse with it before the intense pain subsided.
"Congratulations, big brother. Your cooking skill has finally reached level 5. You are now equivalent to an A-grade chef according to the system's evaluation." Seeing Mu Fan lying on the ground, Hatsune in a maid costume walked to the front of Mu Fan and lowered her head to look at him and said with a smile.
Every five levels belonged to one level of each ability. Level one to level four belonged to B-rank chefs, while level five belonged to A-rank chefs.
That was why he needed to break through every five levels to level up.
At present, according to the system's evaluation, Mu Fan was already equivalent to a qualified A-grade chef.
However, in Mu Fan's opinion, the road ahead was still very long.
Actually, there were a total of twenty levels in the cooking skill. There were also ten levels of S rank and twenty levels of SS rank.
As for why it took 10 levels to go from S to SS?
Hatsune's answer was …
"Big brother, one S is level 10, so two SS is naturally level 20."
[Damn, I really don't believe you.]
[According to what you said, two SS should be level 1010, right?]
.....
"Phew, Hatsune, you didn't tell me it would hurt so much?"
After resting for a moment, Mu Fan took a deep breath and looked at Hatsune and asked.
He didn't immediately get up. Now he was so tired that he didn't even want to move a finger. It was to the point where he needed the readers' monthly votes and recommendation votes to get up.
In fact, Mu Fan didn't need to think to know that he must have made a very funny face when he was lying on the ground just now.
But this was not something Mu Fan could control at all. The pain in his mind was almost equivalent to tearing his body apart. He couldn't maintain his usual demeanor at all.
Of course, this was only in the game. His body in reality was probably soaked in cold sweat.
"Big brother, if I told you, with your personality, would you still level up?"
Hatsune squatted down and looked at Mu Fan's face and said with a smile: "This is like death. Death isn't scary, but knowing that you're going to die, waiting for the time to die is the scariest. “
"So, if I don't say it, it's better to let big brother level up like this. But don't worry, although it hurts to level up, it won't do any harm to people. I calculated that the pain just now was about the same as the pain of a guy being hit in the ass.
"Do you think that being hit in the ass is something that ordinary people can endure?"
Mu Fan rolled his eyes. Recalling the pain just now, his body couldn't help but shiver.
Hatsune covered her small mouth and said with a smile: "Don't worry, big brother. You're now a level 5 A-rank chef. This little pain in exchange for leveling up is nothing. Don't forget, as long as you level up to A-rank, your chances of winning in the Food Festival will increase by a lot."
Mu Fan nodded. These days, he didn't write, nor did he draw comics. He didn't even go out to level up. He was all focused on leveling up his cooking skill to get first place in the Food Festival.
"Oh right, big brother, the shop has opened up a lot of new cooking skills!"
At this time, Hatsune reminded Mu Fan.
"Hmm?"
After receiving Hatsune's reminder, Mu Fan directly opened up the shop system in the game.
This time, there were ratings for the recipes. The recipes that were locked up and couldn't be opened were now open.
From left to right, there were recipes from B-rank to SS-rank.
Since he had become an A-rank chef, all the recipes would be available to him. SS-rank recipes required ten fantasy points to redeem.
Seeing this, Mu Fan's eyes burned.
As long as he exchanged for SS-rank recipes, wouldn't it be easy for him to get first place in this Food Festival?
"Big brother, don't be delusional. With your cooking skill, you won't be able to make it. If you buy an unfinished dish, you'll only reap what you sow. So although it's open, it won't be useful to you."
Looking at Mu Fan's burning and excited eyes, Hatsune unceremoniously poured a bottle of cold water on him.
"… Hmm?"
Although it's fine to hit people a little —
But, you're really a bitch!
In the game, Mu Fan turned on 30% of his senses. A cold feeling came, and Mu Fan instantly returned to reality. He looked at the cup in Hatsune's hand with a shocked expression.
"Big brother, I'm just waking you up. Don't you often use this adjective in your books?" Hatsune said with some embarrassment.
"That's just an adjective. You don't have to be a bitch!"
Mu Fan rolled his eyes. Really, Hatsune had learned bad things.
With such a black-bellied sister, how could he live in the future?
Mu Fan's eyelids twitched. He checked the shop and was surprised to find that all the beginner cooking skills he could exchange were B-rank recipes.
Only the promoted steak was A-rank. The next A-rank recipes required two fantasy points. In other words, he could only exchange two times.
"Ding! Because the host's cooking skill has reached level five for the first time, the host has obtained the A-rank Sun Spring Crystal Fried Dumplings recipe. One fantasy point."
At this time, the system prompt sounded.
"Use!"
Mu Fan directly chose to use it. Anyway, there was no use in keeping the recipes. With two A-rank recipes, his chances of participating in the Food Festival were higher.
After all, there would be a lot of chefs participating in the Food Festival. At the beginning, there would be a selection. When the requirements for cooking skills were not too high, it would be no problem to use the B-rank recipes like golden fried rice.
As for the A-rank recipes, he would use them in the promotion competition.
In the end, Mu Fan checked his remaining fantasy points. 6 points.
Hmm, not bad!
Mu Fan nodded with satisfaction. This time, there might be students from the famous culinary school. If he wanted to stand out from these terrifying chefs, he would need more fantasy points.
After resting in the game, Mu Fan got up and was about to go offline to take a shower.
Yasna's avatar suddenly flashed. It was a message from Yasna.
"Mu Fan, I've found the A5 Wagyu beef, but it's only two thousand grams. The rest will have to wait for a while. I've already asked someone to send it to your house tomorrow morning. Take care to receive it tomorrow."
"Thank you, Yasna!"
After receiving this message, Mu Fan was overjoyed. He sincerely expressed his gratitude to Ashina and then reminded her, "Ashina, since there are still classes on Saturday, let's go to the Food Festival's registration office on Sunday." “
After saying this, Mu Fan closed the chat window. In fact, he was delayed by exams and holidays.
The classes were tight. There were classes on Saturday this week, so he could only postpone the Food Festival's registration to Sunday.
But it didn't matter. The Food Festival would start in four days.
Thinking of this, Mu Fan smiled faintly.
Tomorrow, since there was the A5 Wagyu beef, then Ying Lili — —
