Genshen: Starting from Liyue, he is equipped with the seals of the Six Kingdoms

The venue for the grilled fish competition was chosen in the square in the center of the town, next to the sweet spring that gave birth to Qingquan Town.

When Niyu arrived at the scene, he was startled by the huge crowds of people and almost thought he had traveled to Liyue's Sea Lantern Festival.

Shang Wu and his men stood aside, with expressions of gloating on their faces.

They have been running the Mondstadt business route for many years, and they have long known that the "Mond Badminton Festival Grilled Fish King Competition" sounds like a street cooking competition, but it is actually one of the most important events of the Badminton Festival!

Grilled fish in Mondstadt is one of the local delicacies that Mondstadt people are most proud of. It is said to be a dish passed down from the time when the Wind God founded Mondstadt and the ancestors cleared the wasteland and built the city. Although the method is very simple, it represents Mondstadt's free and pioneering spirit is very symbolic.

The judges of the grilled fish competition are extremely strict and mean, and are often extremely cynicical towards the contestants.

Follow Mond's grilled fish recipe exactly? Bad review! It does not reflect the spirit of freedom at all!

Not following the Mondstadt recipe at all? Bad review! Total lack of respect for Mondstadt's traditions!

To win the competition, you have to innovate on the basis of Mond's grilled fish, and this innovation must conquer the taste buds of the judges!

Otherwise, just wait to be sprayed!

All the bodyguards started flattering Shang Wu.

"That kid is definitely doomed this time!"

"Let Sister Xin see how good his cooking skills are outside!"

"That's it! It saves him from thinking that he is the God of Cooking all day long!"

Shang Wu coughed twice, pretending to be serious and said: "What are you talking about! After all, he is a brother of his own caravan... When he is scolded by the judges until he cries, let's not forget to comfort him! Haha! "

Seeing how a mere grilled fish competition had such a huge influence, Niyu felt as if the nerves in his cheeks were tap dancing.

As expected, none of the people of Nima Barbatos are normal...

Forget it, you can just do whatever you want and lose on purpose...

At this moment, a thick voice suddenly came out in his head.

"No! You have to win!"

Niwa suddenly felt a pain in his balls, and argued in his mind: "Senior Marcus, now is not the time to fool around... There are countless fools in this town, and I don't want to be noticed by them!"

Marcusius said seriously: "You are representing the Liyue culinary world and fighting on my behalf! In other respects, I can say that except for my cooking skills, I, the Demon God of Stoves, will never admit defeat!"

"...Why are you so obsessed with cooking! You are not the Demon God of Stoves, but the God of Cooking, right?"

"God of Cooking is indeed one of my divine names."

"..."

Seeing Niyu's expression of eating poop, Maxius comforted him again: "Don't worry, the fools won't notice you. Cain told me that those fools didn't notice you at all."

"Seriously? How did you know, Cain?" Niyu asked quickly.

Cain's voice rang in his mind, "It's very simple! When you focus your attention on a certain living body, you should be able to feel its vitality escaping outwards, right? You follow the direction that escapes the most. When the line finds its end, that is the object of his attention."

Niyu asked in a muffled voice: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Cain said nonchalantly: "You didn't even ask! I thought you had discovered such a simple technique long ago!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he found himself thrown back into the small dark room where he was originally imprisoned.

Cain:? ? ?

Niyu concentrated his mind and tried this trick on Shangwu, and found that although he seemed to be looking around, in fact, his attention was entirely on Meixin.

He tried to get closer to a fool again and found that the other person's attention seemed to be on Albedo.

Thinking about it this way, there are also fools watching around Noelle...

Where's Qin? Well, opposite the headquarters of the Knights is the Goethe Hotel, the home of the diplomatic corps of Fools...

No one seemed to be watching Keli... No one would have thought that such a young child was actually an official knight of the Knights of the West Wind, right?

Could it be that the Fools are monitoring the Eye of God holders of the Knights of the West Wind?

Thinking of this possibility, while Niyu felt a little relieved about his own safety, he also felt a little uneasy about the situation in Mondstadt.

According to the original plot, the badminton festival after the Black Fire case should have been a near miss...but now that the timeline has been advanced by a year, the plot may also be messed up...

What exactly happens next?

While he was thinking, the host's loud voice came.

"The competition for the King of Grilled Fish in Mondstadt at this Badminton Festival is about to begin! Players please take your positions!"

In the Teyvat continent, as long as fish can be found in the wild, grilled fish is an extremely basic dish.

However, each country still has its own characteristics in making grilled fish.

For example, Mond's grilled fish pays attention to roasting it carefully over low heat, adding pepper to stimulate the umami flavor, and focusing on the delicate feeling between the tender fish meat and crispy fish skin.

Liyue is naturally most famous for its grilled tiger fish. This kind of grilled fish is made by lightly marinating freshly caught fish and then grilling it over a high fire to lock in the freshest flavor to the greatest extent.

Inazuma also has grilled fish, called dry-roasted ayu, but the fish is dried in the sea breeze overnight and then roasted carefully over charcoal fire, aiming to maximize the firmness and deliciousness of the fish and the natural deliciousness of the sea salt.

The people of Mondstadt are naturally more accustomed to the taste of Mondstadt's grilled fish, but the "God of Cooking" Marcus was originally here to promote Liyue's food culture, so of course he cannot get used to the Mondstadt people's tongue.

The recipe he prepared for Niyu was still based on Liyue's grilled tiger fish, but he slightly adjusted the ingredients. He used the powder mixed with Jueyun pepper and glass bag as his trump card to prepare a spicy grilled fish.

Niwa had no problem with that.

He wished that Marcusius would lose the game!

It's best to make everyone in Mondstadt cry!

When it comes to cooking, Maxius's spirit of excellence is enough to put any perfectionist to shame.

His instructions to the tool man Niyu can be accurate to the second, and he fully demonstrates the essence of Liyue cuisine - "heat".

"When pickling, control the water element and let the spiciness penetrate a little, good!"

“When piercing fish, pass through the fat layer between the skin and flesh!”

"Now is the most critical step. Use the 'internal combustion method' that we improved from the 'thorn method' to bake it from the inside out together with the outside!"

Niwa followed Marcusius's request with an expressionless face.

Now he has adapted to the power of fire element, and can mobilize a small amount of fire element without using the power of the devil. The intensity is almost perfect for grilling fish.

This made him seriously suspect that Marcus's motive for helping him improve the "internal combustion method" was to use him as a microwave oven.

The method of grilling tiger fish is inherently less time-consuming than other grilled fishes. Marcusius also specially used the double grilling method inside and outside.

So not surprisingly, Niyu became the first contestant to hand in the paper...
