Rebirth as a Cooking God

Hearing this, Xia Yu frowned instead.

Dishes? Make bricks without straw. Not having ingredients is enough of a headache.

Kitchenware!

Xia Yu's heart moved and he wanted to take out the blue imitation version of [Grean Wolf Knife] from the inventory and pay tribute. After he got the real purple version of [Greed Wolf Knife], this blue kitchen utensil kept gathering dust.

But he felt that the man could not be so blatant, so he glanced over, and unexpectedly the man left the main hall with a hearty laugh.

Without any further hesitation, the heavy kitchen utensils were placed on the shrine. As soon as Xia Yu let go of his hand, there was a crash.

There was a dazzling light, and when Xia Yu opened his eyes again, the knife was gone!

Huh? Wei Wei was dumbfounded.

What about the reaction?

At this time, Xia Yu raised his eyebrows, and there was a vague desire from a will, which meant——

I want more!

I go!

Met a gluttonous god?

cough. Afraid that his thoughts would blaspheme the gods, Xia Yu didn't want to come back empty-handed after exhausting his mountain climbing these days, so he carefully checked his inventory.

golden recipe skipped

Purple items are also skipped.

What about this pot?

He also placed a blue pan towards the shrine. This pan was used to increase the probability of the food lighting up and was rarely used.

After putting it on, the pot disappeared again, but there was still no response from the shrine!

wrong!

Xia Yu looked carefully and found that there was a faint light coming from the stone shrine. It turned out that at some point, a lamp turned on in the shrine. There were four similar oil lamps in total, and then one of them turned on...

Grit your teeth.

There are no more blue props, so only purple props can be used!

[Pixiu Wood Carving]!

A strange wooden carving of purple quality, held in hand.

call!

A strange wind blew into the empty main hall, and the wind carried a cry of longing. Xia Yu's scalp exploded, and he could only grit his teeth and put the wooden sculpture on it.

Suddenly, the other three lights all lit up!

Xia Yu waited patiently.

After a while, a fox with beautiful snow-white fur jumped into the main hall, half-sat at Xia Yu's feet, raised its head and looked at him with spiritual eyes, as if asking for his opinion.

There was a burst of laughter, and the sloppy man came back again.

This is Izumo's messenger.

messenger?

Yes, it represents Izumo's will and will serve you for 7 days. During these 7 days, you can control it at will and let it help you search for the rarest fantasy ingredients in this mountain.

On the 'rare', the sloppy man gritted his teeth in jealousy.

envy?

Hearing this, Xia Yu asked: Do food hunters have to pay tribute before they can hunt?

The sloppy man laughed, This is a shortcut!

This uninhabited mountainous area is too vast, with many wild beasts and fantasy species. At least you have to travel all over the mountain to familiarize yourself with the terrain before you can hunt for your favorite fantasy ingredients. Don't think of hunting too simply. Sometimes, Wouldn't it be easier to use mysterious power...

Xia Yu thought to himself: Isn't that equivalent to a mission mark?

You think everyone is as wealthy as you. When you first came here, Izumo was satisfied with the tribute he paid. The sloppy man was speechless. The last time I received guidance from a messenger was eight or nine years ago. Well, I can't even remember it. It’s blurry!”

I wonder what tribute you handed over!

boom!

As he said that, the sloppy man kicked the stone shrine, and said angrily: Every item of my dishes was paid tribute, but I only succeeded in paying tribute the first time, and then the shrine simply stopped treating me!

hateful!

this……

Xia Yu was surprised to see the white spirit fox sitting at his feet. This messenger fox didn't care about the sloppy man's desecration of the shrine. He stuck out his scarlet tongue, licked the down on his forelimbs, and groomed his hair.

Ding, [Hunting Life's First Fantasy Ingredients] mission information has been updated.

The system pops up a prompt.

Please hunt tagged fantasy species!

Reward - Unlock the corresponding fantasy ingredients!

At this point, Xia Yu breathed out as if relieved.

Marked rare ingredients?

What could it be?

Xia Yu couldn't help but daydream and look forward to it, but was interrupted by a shout:

Boy, come on, hire me!

The sloppy man took out a crumpled mercenary certificate from his pocket, I am a professional gourmet mercenary with a certificate!

The man's name is written on the mercenary certificate:

Kaneda Shun.

It has the seals of IGO and Japanese government.

Hire?

Hey, don't underestimate fantasy creatures!

The rarer the fantasy species, the more powerful and smart it is... In the past ten years, I have seen too many experienced drivers who overturned their cars. How do you deal with it on your own?

After licking his fingers at Xia Yu, the sloppy man took Xia Yu to the small wooden house next to the main hall of the shrine.

These houses were built by me over the past ten years...

Said casually, the man opened the door.

When the scene inside the house came into view, Xia Yu gasped for air. This was the Hot Weapon House. It had an ancient appearance, but inside was a weapons shop, with all kinds of heavy weapons hung on the walls.

There are hunting rifles, there are shotguns, there are sniper rifles.

The sloppy man directly shouldered an AA-12 shotgun and loaded the bullet tray with an excited look on his face.

Let's hunt!

wait--

Xia Yu rubbed his eyebrows and called out Shun Kaneda who was even more excited than him. There were too many things in his mind that needed to be sorted out. He needed a guide and a fighting partner, so after thinking about it for a while, he asked slowly:

What does it cost to hire you?

This is obviously the right question.

Kaneda Shun lowered the AA-12 shotgun in his hand, coughed and said, I'm not short of money. If you succeed in hunting, give me one-third of the food as a commission.

Ingredients offset? Xia Yu was startled.

A quarter is fine! Seeing his silence, Kaneda thought the asking price was too high, so he gritted his teeth and cut off a piece of it himself.

Xia Yu smiled secretly.

His mission reward is to unlock the corresponding ingredients in the God of Cooking mall, so as long as he has reputation points, he can buy them endlessly. So he didn't care about the commission.

On the contrary, Xia Yu was curious about whether this man had stayed in the mountains for ten years to collect ingredients.

I'm preparing for a life-and-death battle. Shun Kaneda only said one sentence.

Xia Yu was in awe.

Okay! I'll hire you!

same day.

Xia Yu stayed temporarily at Izumo Shrine. He was exhausted from climbing the mountain for three days and needed a night to recharge.

At night, Xia Yu sat on the bed.

This is the house left by the gourmet hunter on the mountain. The silver fox is lying on the ground not far from the bed. What remains unchanged is that the messenger is still licking his fur and looking up at Xia Yu from time to time.

[Fried Gem Meat], do you want to eat it here?

Xia Yu thought.

It is recommended that the host eat taboo dishes to awaken 100% of the gourmet cells, and the physical fitness will be fully increased and strengthened twice! The system rarely proactively reminded.

Um?

Xia Yu's eyes lit up, Amplification and strengthening?

So what are the abilities of [Famo] Gourmet Cells? he asked.

Please host explore!

All right……

Another room.

Kaneda Shun wiped the gun silently, his eyes changed, and he stared at a photo on the table for a long time.

...I'll be back soon!

The next day.

Xia Yu, who had returned to normal from the colorful hair killing state, and Shun Kaneda, a gourmet mercenary who lived in seclusion in the mountains, followed the messenger spirit fox and embarked on the road of hunting.
