Chapter 494 Dark Gourmet
Even if you concentrate hard, it's still useless.
Snee Traize has no obstructions in the process of making delicious food. Angel still gained nothing, but he did see some tricks in the food mirage.
Food mirage is a food illusion that appears when a food wizard makes food. Angel once experienced the food mirage on the Bauhinia, and almost ate the oil lamp as a chicken leg.
Food mirage is very lethal to mortals, but it has no effect on apprentices with mental structures. Instead, everyone will judge the source of food materials and the possible taste through the food mirage picture.
For example, when Snee Traize is making delicious food, it is a lingering mirage——
The Mochu King, whose body is exuding steam, smiles and dances as the smoke sublimates. The tentacles covered with suction cups make different movements, accepting various wonderfully shaped food supplements, such as wind tunnel, Beni Lulu Egg liquid, rich sesame, sage leaves... King Mochu stuffed these ingredients into his big mouth, and then a blazing flame appeared in the mirage.
After the flames burned, a plate of explosive lava red egg soup shining with fiery red light was placed in front of everyone.
From this mirage, you can see the main and auxiliary ingredients of this plate of delicious food. This is generally how mirages work. But Angel, as an apprentice in the illusion department, discovered some tricks of the mirage. For example, the mirage is not actually from the hands of the gourmet wizard, but the art of the game between taste and flame.
There is no real illusion node between them, it is purely an illusion filled with the flavor of extraordinary power and extraordinary flames, which collide with each other.
However, Angel only saw this. As for some of the secrets of Snitridze's delicious food, he couldn't understand it at all. He wanted to use this to improve his magic bread making skills, but it was basically useless.
"Explosive lava red egg soup can increase the affinity to the fire attribute, and can also temporarily increase the elemental fire element's spell casting strength." Snee Traize introduced while placing the soup in front of everyone.
The fiery red soup contains vaguely white eggs and green grass leaves. In the fragrant soup, you can also see some small wonderful mirages.
"When you smell it, it feels like there is heat exploding in your heart." Hermes took a deep breath.
Loki was already swallowing his saliva greedily and kept stroking his palms, looking eager to try.
Snee Traize took out a dinner plate, smashed the mirage and scooped the soup into it, and then placed it first in front of Angel: "I was able to get the King Ink Touch Egg, thanks to your help. I can't repay you. This bowl of soup is a token of gratitude.”
In fact, Angel's greed was already crawling around in his heart, but he couldn't show the slightest urgency in front of him.
He smiled reservedly, and his impression of Snitridze soared: "Thank you."
Snitridze smiled and looked very happy. But only Kafulian noticed that there was a hint of cunning in Snitridze's eyes. Generally speaking, Snitridze who showed this look was planning something...or someone.
Angel took the soup plate and took a deep sip, feeling satisfied inside. It can be seen that the food prepared by the food wizard is full of energy.
Angel's lips lightly touched the edge of the porcelain plate, and Snitridze's smile became even wider.
But when Angel was about to drink the soup, a short, fat, white hand that looked like lotus joints came in and snatched the soup plate from Angel's mouth.
Angel was stunned, others were also startled, and Snitridze's smile froze.
"Tana, why didn't you remind Angel that the delicacies made by the food wizard should not be eaten casually." A milky voice reached everyone's ears.
At some point, Allen, who was wearing a white chef's uniform, woke up. He snatched the soup plate from Angel's hand and said to Tana seriously.
Tana was also stunned for a moment: "I have been paying attention. There is no problem with her technique and there are no problems with the ingredients."
"There is no problem with the ingredients and auxiliary materials, but there may be a problem with the people." Allen glanced at Snee Traize. Originally, he had been calling Snee Traize "beautiful young lady", but since he saw the old man holding the stick, Finally, some doubts arose in his heart.
He remembered what his mentor once said about a type of dark gourmet.
"Man, is there a problem?" Tana frowned and looked at Snitridze carefully.
However, Snee Traize stood next to Caverian and said to Allen with a smile: "Little Fatty, you can't talk nonsense. If Caverian doesn't eat the food I cook in the future, I will spank your little ass." ”
Kafulian smiled faintly and said nothing.
"Is there something wrong with this plate of soup?" Angel asked after hearing what Allen meant.
"Leave it to me, I'll take a look." Allen patted his chest, looking like "I have everything".
Angel felt a little funny, as if he saw Allen on the Bauhinia. Unexpectedly, when I met Allen again, his personality did not change much. It seemed that life in the Butterfly Tavern was indeed more comfortable.
Allen carefully checked the soup for a long time. He placed the soup plate back on the small wooden table of the gondola, frowning high.
"How?" Tana asked.
"Well, I didn't find any problem. It can indeed enhance some of the fire element's values." Allen said, "But, my intuition tells me that there is something wrong with this plate of soup."
"You're not a woman, so what's the point of talking about intuition?" Snee Traize smiled and said: "You think it's okay, let everyone judge. Everyone wants to drink, if not, leave it to me."
Because of Allen's words, Tana also took the soup plate and checked it. After she finished the inspection, she nodded to everyone: "There should be nothing wrong."
Although Allen's food talent is higher than Tana's, he is only a first-level apprentice after all. Tana became a second-level apprentice ten years ago, so everyone still trusts Tana's judgment more than Allen.
In the end, Hermes took the lead in drinking the plate of explosive lava red egg soup.
With Hermes taking the lead, everyone drank.
When Allen saw this, he pursed his lips and looked unhappy.
However, Angel and Qili did not drink it. Qili has a very unique personality. Even though she is a fire element, the explosive lava red egg soup has a great effect on her, but she will never accept or believe in anything from outside. Any gift. Angel believed in Allen's intuition. He himself occasionally had strong intuitions, and the facts told him that his intuitions were basically fine. Allen's intuition said something was wrong, so it didn't hurt to trust him for once.
As for the explosive lava red egg soup that can improve the affinity of the fire element, Angel doesn't care at all. Many potions have similar functions. As an alchemist, he really wants to buy similar potions, and he is not short of money.
Angel didn't drink, which made Snitridze narrow her eyes, but she said "it's okay if you don't drink" early in the morning. Therefore, she could only smile and say nothing.
After everyone drank the soup, the atmosphere became a little warmer.
Angel also chatted with Allen about his current situation after entering the wizarding world.
Allen's experience is actually similar to Angel's. Although Allen has been to many places with the Butterfly Tavern for more than a year, he has actually never left the Butterfly Tavern on his own initiative. He has been studying the art of gourmet food at home. This time It was my first time to go out to the Machinery City.
This is actually Angel's first time going out, but it's prefixed by an experience in a fairy tale world.
Two wizard apprentices with little "experience" ended up chatting most about the old continent.
Angel said that he might return to the Old Continent within the year. Allen was very envious. He also missed his father, General Meng En, but with his current ability, there was no way he could even think about crossing the Devil's Sea and returning to the Old Continent.
He knew that Angel was an enlightenment mentor, and he had also met the rickets patient named Jon. Based on his experience over the past year, he also proposed several treatment plans for Angel through food-wrapped therapy.
Angel smiled and thanked him, but he knew very well that what Jon had was not a disease at all. The main reason was the rejection of the world's will. The solutions proposed by Allen were still "pathological" and basically useless to Jon.
They talked about some more things about "Eileen" and "Morro". Allen had never seen Irene and Moro since he went to the candy house alone, so the conversation basically could only recall the past and speculate about possible possibilities. future.
When they really had nothing to talk about, Angel asked about the "intuition" that Allen just mentioned, but Snitridze was nearby, and Angel used the sound transmission technique.
"I heard what you said just now, do I suspect that Snee Traize has tampered with Tang?"
Allen nodded and replied using the sound transmission technique: "I suspect that Snitridze may be a dark gourmet."
Dark Gourmet? This was the first time Angel heard this term and he didn't know what it meant.
"Dark gourmets are somewhat different from the food wizards in our candy house. You can understand them as people who use food as a means rather than a pursuit." Allen thought for a moment: "I don't know if Snee Traize is a dark gourmet. But Her methods are similar to those of a level-up wizard once mentioned by her mentor."
"The heroic spirit of food, Xin Ji."
"According to the book, Xin Ji was a dark gourmet from tens of thousands of years ago. She could attract foreign spirits to fight for her through her food. It is somewhat similar to the summoning spells, but the summoning spells have obvious levels of strength. Distribution, if it is a cross-level summon, not only will the consumables increase, but it may not be able to withstand the backlash of the summoned object. But Xinji's Food Heroic Spirit is different. It is not so much a summons as an exchange, trading with the Heroic Spirit through food. , and let the heroic spirits fight for him. If the food is very suitable for a certain heroic spirit, even a wizard apprentice can summon a wizard-level heroic spirit."
Angel looked surprised when he heard this: "There is still such an operation?!"
"Xinji's delicacies to the heroic spirit are both a transaction and a contract. Once the heroic spirit eats Xinji's delicacies, it must meet Xinji's conditions." At this point, Allen glanced at the silk floating in the air with petals scattered all over the ground. Nitrize: "The old man holding the staff that Snitrize created earlier, when he handed her the King Ink Touch egg, he said, 'This is the reward for dinner, thank you for the treat,' and then he disappeared. This made me Reminds me of Xin Ji’s food hero.”
"If Snee Traize really has a similar method, you must not eat her food. Maybe you have signed a contract with her without knowing it."
