Hurricane immediately exchanged intelligence.
As Hurricane was the fastest, he arrived first and immediately relayed the information to Ren Pi Wa Wa and Qing Cheng.
The content was also simple.
By the time they arrived, Bo Gang had already been defeated and was severely injured. A person who claimed to be a chef suddenly appeared. Hurricane did not dare to act rashly.
Qing Cheng giggled.
"My Brother Hurricane, you're getting more timid by the day."
"This Bo Gang has been hit by silk threads, the 'Corrupt Body Poison', Hua Lian Hu's fist techniques, and my 'True Face'. He's covered in wounds."
"Even if he was strong, how much strength could he have left now?"
"In my opinion, this little cutie is just a opportunist trying to claim credit."
Then, Qing Cheng floated to about twenty meters in front of Zhang Wei.
She said softly, "This humble one is Qing Cheng. May I ask this handsome young man, which famous establishment's chef are you? And what is your name?"
"I haven't worked in a shop, you can just call me Zhang Wei."
"Zhang Wei?"
"Yes, that's right!"
"The Zhang Wei of Wine and Beauties?"
"Yes, that's me."
Hurricane roared in anger, "Nonsense! Chef Zhang Wei, the King of Northern Chefs, is even inferior to our Black List member Mr. Lou Ming! How could someone like you, a mere martial artist, impersonate him!"
Zhang Wei was a legendary figure.
A man even Lou Ming couldn't defeat!
How could such a person be so amiable and ordinary?
Even if he wasn't arrogant, shouldn't he at least have the distinguished demeanor of a chef?
Hurricane said, "Young man, we have a portrait of Chef Zhang Wei. You can't impersonate him!"
When Zhang Wei participated in the competition, he used the Illusionary Form technique to disguise his appearance to prevent汤之魂 and others from recognizing him.
Now, he was using his true face, so it was naturally different from the portrait.
"Is the portrait you speak of like this?"
The Illusionary Form technique activated!
Zhang Wei switched to his competition appearance and said confidently, "How is it? Can you believe me now?"
Ren Pi Wa Wa: ...
Qing Cheng: ...
Hurricane: ...
After a long silence, Ren Pi Wa Wa said, "The Illusionary Form technique you used was actually invented by me... I can clearly sense which is the true body."
Zhang Wei: ...
Damn it!
It was no use explaining!
Even if he told the truth, no one would believe him.
The King of Northern Chefs... actually not using his true face in the competition... no one would believe such a thing.
"This person is impersonating Zhang Wei and must have a secret agenda. Let's capture him, and we might get some valuable intelligence."
"Makes sense!"
"This person should have some skill. Everyone be careful!"
From their conversation, Zhang Wei could basically confirm that these three were members of the Northern Allied Forces' Black List.
Zhang Wei had a high degree of respect for Lou Ming. Seeing that a fight was about to break out,
Zhang Wei had no choice but to prove his innocence and prevent internal conflict.
"Wait a moment, everyone!"
Zhang Wei summoned firewood, seasonings, oil, and meat...
His blade danced, and countless ingredients were transformed into fine shreds in the air.
A fierce fire erupted, hot oil sizzled in the wok, and his spatula flew, spreading the seasonings evenly...
"I'm in a hurry, so I'll just whip up some stir-fry, but I feel it's enough."
"What are you all standing around for?"
"Get some chopsticks!"
As the aroma of the cooking food filled the air, the three froze, their words of refusal stuck in their throats.
If the other party was indeed Zhang Wei, it would be a huge loss not to be able to eat this dish.
Moreover, the aroma alone made the three, who had tasted countless delicacies, salivate.
"If you're a fake, what if you poison the food?"
Qing Cheng giggled, "How about this, let me taste it first. I'll sacrifice myself to verify this handsome man's authenticity!"
Ren Pi Wa Wa took the lead, with a righteous air, "How can that be? When it comes to researching poisons, who can surpass me? Let me test it!"
Hurricane coughed lightly, "Actually, I also have a desire to contribute to the team."
Zhang Wei: ...
These three were truly abnormal!
...
In the end, all three of them succumbed to the temptation of the delicious food and were captivated by Zhang Wei's stir-fry.
Although the dishes were simple, they were made with high-quality ingredients of level 20 and above, offering both exquisite taste and nutrition.
The three had been pursuing Bo Gang for over ten days and had suffered significant injuries. This meal completely restored their condition.
Ren Pi Wa Wa, in particular, had been scorched by Bo Gang's flames for a full three minutes at Burning Sun Mountain, reportedly losing hundreds of precious human skins... his main body was severely injured.
Ren Pi Wa Wa fiddled with his tattered beggar's attire, and the layered rags transformed into a well-tailored suit.
His jet-black hair was meticulously combed.
However, his face had no features, making him appear terrifying.
A voice emanated from Ren Pi Wa Wa's throat, "Sir, please forgive my previous disrespect and doubts. Once again, I offer my sincerest apologies!"
"Do you believe me now?"
"Yes, sir. Your cooking not only dispelled my fatigue but also largely healed my old wounds. Your skill is truly astonishing."
"Although Ren Pi Wa Wa is a figure of the shadows, he understands human relationships. If you ever need anything in the future, please do not hesitate to command me."
The other two also came to their senses and apologized one after another.
Qing Cheng smiled charmingly and, in a sweet and coquettish voice, grabbed Zhang Wei's sleeve, "Um~~ Chef, can I eat your cooking again in the future~?"
"Of course."
"Really?"
"Yes, I'll give you a discount, 10% off!"
Qing Cheng fiddled with her fingers, feigning grievance, "But it's so hard for me to earn money~ I don't have much income."
"8.5% off, a friend's price~~"
A top assassin from the Black List having no income?
Even a ghost wouldn't believe that!
Qing Cheng, suppressing her joy, continued to flirt with Zhang Wei.
A chef of Zhang Wei's caliber had creations that were beyond monetary value!
Establishing a stable relationship with him was a great success!
..................
On the outskirts of Yu City, the Northern Allied Forces' command post.
In the large camp, Mo Du spread out the Tong Xin Grass.
'Near Burning Sun Mountain, encountered Bo Gang, as well as Ren Pi Wa Wa, Qing Cheng, and Hurricane.'
'Now heading towards the teleportation gate at the peak of Burning Sun Mountain. What is your situation over there?'
A strange warmth rose in Mo Du's heart.
As expected, my brother still cares about me.
As soon as he heard that my situation was critical, he rushed over without delay.
'Brother, don't worry~'
'My situation is stable, and the defensive formation is very tight. You don't need to worry about my safety.'
'It's just that the previous battles were a bit clumsy, and many of the rescued captives were taken away again.'
Putting down the Tong Xin Grass.
Mo Du began to patrol the military camp.
The wounded area was filled with groans of pain~
Sabres and axes were considered minor injuries, and losing limbs was common.
Some people had even lost half of their bodies but were still stubbornly alive.
"The number of wounded is increasing..."
Adjacent to the wounded area was the culinary area.
This area was guarded by the most elite troops, and each chef had several personal bodyguards to ensure their safety.
In this era, chefs were like armories, ammunition supplies, and medical logistics.
Treating the wounded, restoring the soldiers' stamina, and applying beneficial buffs to the soldiers... all relied on chefs!
And among these chefs, Wolfgang and Hei Cheng Ze had the highest culinary skills!
